Summary
Midoriya Izuku doesn't know how any of this happened. Really, he doesn't. All he was trying to do was track down a few faces from his past, and maybe find a little forgiveness along the way.
Aizawa Shouta wants to pull the new vigilante off the streets of the worst district in Musutafu before he gets caught by Seven's shadow, The Jackal.
Takami Keigo is looking to take down a renowned serial killer and urban legend known as The Jackal before he hurts anyone else.
Dabi is just trying to protect the very concerning Skoll from a monster they just can't catch.
Yamada Hizashi really isn't concerned with any of this, only wanting to forcefully adopt the cute kid that's been calling in to his radio show.
Why should you read this fic? Well, we have!
-One (1) small child who could get away with murder and keeps accidentally making new identities
-Big brother Dabi, Big brother Hawks, Dadzawa, and Dadmic
Warnings have been lowered. Just remember this is a dark fic, though there's a decent bit of humor!Updates sporadically until I get my life back under control

Summary
Disparate Amalgamation's rewrite
Spoilers in tags? Kinda? Definitely manga spoilers.
Takami Keigo knew that the HPSC was training children to be soldiers, but this is the first time he's ever seen them make an actual, child soldier.
Chimera, with questionable intelligence and a quirk like none other, Keigo isn't sure what to do. He's seen the HPSC do many corrupt and terrible things, he's even helped them, but this is something else. He may be owned by them, but can he stand by and let this go on? And what exactly is up with the strange little asset, with his "confidential" quirk and how he seems to be far more intelligent then he was told?
Follow pro-hero Hawks and the HPSC's latest asset, "Chimera," as they discover life and freedom, and learn to stand up for themselves even against the most impossible odds.

Summary
My very late, first Whumptober oneshot!
A very self-indulgent, non-canonical fic based on Jackal's Song and File Not Found, comparing the fics with my friend!
Izuku wasn’t sure what happened. One minute he was dressed up as Dancer, doing his usual thing and fighting crime in Seven, next he was being tossed into a mirror in an abandoned warehouse.
That in itself wasn’t all that unusual. It was when he fell into the mirror that he started to question things.
It was probably an illusion quirk. Maybe a dimensional rift quirk, he thought as he watched the ceiling fall away, a distant glowing light disappearing into darkness as he fell, colliding fast and hard with the cement flooring.

Thermal and Hawks: A guide to becoming yourself by Anonymous

Summary
The commission wants someone in UA; they had for years. They said it was unsafe to let ‘The Rat’ run wild. Thermal doesn’t see the problem, but it isn’t his job to see it. No, it’s his job to fix it. The commission has been trying to send their people in for years to no avail. However, they’ve yet to try and send in one of their people as a student. Hawks’ past would’ve been suspicious to Nedzu, so they hadn’t wanted to send him in. But Thermal? There is nothing suspicious about his past.

Summary
Izuku has always had a strange relationship with fear. He realized, after his quirks began to manifest in their entirety, that the daring he'd known in his youth wasn’t bravery, but an ignorance that masked itself as certainty.
He was afraid. All the time. But so was everyone, and that was where things really started to get interesting, wasn’t it?
Or, when an incident at home leaves Midoriya Izuku motherless and homeless, disillusioned with hero society and just wanting an escape from it all, he falls into the hands of All for One. Things only get worse from there.

Summary
He hadn’t been intending to die, but then people so rarely did.
A bad choice to sit on a railing atop a roof has far reaching consequences when it breaks and takes a boy once named Midoriya Izuku plummeting to his untimely death. Yet death isn’t quite the end he thought it was.
There had been some merit in Kacchan’s advice, Izuku thought wryly, to take a swan dive off a roof and pray for a quirk in his next life – because he did have a quirk that time around, even if he wasn’t quite born into his next life in the normal sense.

Summary
Aizawa Shouta is a survivor. He’s a smuggler, a killer, and a morally grey person, but so is everybody else. It’s what happens when most of the world is suddenly wiped out by a violent disease, while with it came martial law, rebel gangs, and a whole lot of lost hope. Twenty years after his life flipped upside down, Aizawa is tasked with bringing a nervous, freckled boy across the country.
Except the two of them aren’t the only ones trying to survive - Aizawa is unforgiving, Izuku is desperate, life is cruel, and the journey is brutal.
In other words: a zombie apocalypse AU featuring dadzawa, a certain problem child, their troubling pasts, and a lot of healing.

Summary
Izuku didn’t get a say in the hand of cards he’d been given in life—not his quirk, not his family, and not his circumstances, but he’s determined to live his life the way he wants, to use his quirk to help people, and to turn all the pain and heartache he’s endured into kindness and compassion for others.
So, with nothing left to lose, he’s ready to become a hero for real by getting into Yuuei’s Hero Course as a recommended student.
