    Summary

    He knew it was all fake. Tomura Shigaraki, Tenko Shimura. Names that all belonged to him. Murderer, villain, monster, mistake. Titles that he held.

    He was Tomura, he was Tenko. He was someone who needed everything but saving. He didn't deserve it.

    He needed to atone for everything he's ever done. What a better way to do it than to betray everyone and die?

    If only that worked.

    [contains suicidal thoughts, violence, gore, and angst]

    Summary

    Kintsugi: The Japanese art form of repairing broken pottery by mending the areas of breakage with gold. It represents the idea that broken doesn't mean unfixable. That even something shattered can be made into a stronger, more beautiful piece of art.

    Izuku knows that life will always be unfair to people like him. He knows that he can't bring his mother back from the dead or make his father love him. He knows he's destined for a life of loneliness and pain. Knows that his goal to be a quirkless hero is nearly impossible.

    Izuku knows that he's broken.

    But can the people that come into his life help put him back together?
    Will Izuku let them?

    Summary

    He stood for a moment among the dying flames, glowing crimson wings spread wide, a gentle smile on his face, and his intense molten gold eyes focused on Izuku. The sight took Izuku’s breath away. This was a hero, a true hero. He wasn’t just smart and strong. He was kind . He was compassionate . He was real . This is what Izuku wanted to be. All Might’s smile had always seemed the best and brightest. It had always brought Izuku comfort, but compared to Hawks, it seemed cold and fake. All Might said Izuku couldn’t be a hero, but... Hawks said All Might was wrong. Maybe Izuku couldn’t be a hero like All Might… but, he realized suddenly, he didn’t want to be like All Might anymore.

    ~or~

    When All Might leaves Izuku Midoriya on that rooftop, Izuku spends a little longer standing there and thinking about his future. That changes everything.

    Summary

    Quirkless Midoriya Izuku was killed in a villain attack alongside his mother and pronounced dead at age four.

    Three hours later, a hobo hero and a loud-mouthed blonde are chasing that supposedly dead, now-half-naked child through the halls of one of Musutafu’s busiest hospitals.

    (Or, in which Izuku gets sent back in time and spends three years with the surname Shimura and a loving future villain brother, Shimura Tenko. Death wins once more, in this second chance at life, and he’s back to the future with another set of parents hot on his trail.)

    (This child has too many last names.)

    Oh, he can see ghosts now, too. Trauma tends to do that to you.
