    Summary

    Of course he knows he’s a pawn. He’s far too intelligent to not have figured that one out. But, still, he complies. He follows along because who else does he have? He’s abandoned, Quirkless, functionally useless to civilian society. At least this way he can be as close as possible to his childhood dreams of heroism.

    --

    Loyal asset of the Hero Public Safety Commission, Izuku Midoriya is ready for his next assignment. He was expecting to be up against powerful quirks, he was expecting to walk a fine line between the Commission and UA. Hell, he was even expecting the beady-eyed attention of Principal Nezu. The only thing no one was expecting - not the HPSC, not Nezu, and certainly not Izuku - was the wild and welcoming chaos of Hero Course Class 1A. Will they be enough to break Izuku out of his compliance?

    One of my all time favourite fics ever, seriously!!
    The relationships between the characters are so well written and it just makes them feel so real with every interaction,, it really reminds you that these are just children going through some terrible things. It's a wonderful balance of hurt and comfort.
    This works' retellings of canon events are so much more intense and so incredibly compelling, I adored it - every chapter had me on the edge waiting for the next update.
    Also who doesn't love bamf quirkless Izuku??

     

    This is also part of a series, with a sequel 'Defiance' in progress

    Summary

    “So—um,” Natsuo says next, “Do you and Hawks know each other at all? We invited Hawks-san because we like to have lunch with him. Sorry for the surprise—but the more the merrier, right?”

    Dabi slurps noodles once more.

    “Did you…um,” Fuyumi adds next, “ever run into each other?”

    “I tried to kill him,” Dabi says next. “I burned his wings.”

    There’s a squeak. Natsuo’s and Fuyumi’s eyes widen.

    “Don’t worry,” Hawks reassures. “I lived.”

    “Stubborn bastard,” Dabi grumbles almost immediately. He lifts the bowl to sip broth. “I threw him out a window.”

    “I lived then, too,” Hawks reassures before they can have another scandalized gasp. “Don’t worry. It’s how he shows his affection.”

    --

    Post-war, Todoroki Touya is pardoned from his crimes, while Hawks gains a new title: the Dabi Whisperer.

    An absolutely brilliant post-war fic in my opinion. Dabi's and Hawks' relationship is so wonderfully developed - neither sugar-coating or dwelling on their less than stellar history. This fic not only focuses on their relationship but also, the complicated dynamics of the Todoroki family as Dabi and co. adjust after the war in a way that is authentic and light-hearted. Hawks' pov is both insightful as well as entertaining - from navigating what it is to be surrounded by people who care for him, concerning his poor intern Tokoyami and just having a good time - this fic is amusing, heartfelt and compelling.

    Summary

    Jefferson Davis can’t lie to himself, as much as he tries. He and Miles have always butted heads-- his son just has this carefree, unfettered approach to life that Davis' strict, no-nonsense methods seemingly have no place in. A large part of him loves Miles for that, truly, even though sometimes Jefferson feels as if he's just slowing him down.

    But now, with Miles away at school on weeknights-- seemingly always busy with something or another-- Jefferson has never felt that gaping space between himself and his son yawn wider.

    Enter the new Spider-Man. A free-spirited kid, five foot nothing and standing between the whole city and danger as if it’s his job, breaking a long series of minor laws with careless ease, and giving a certain cop heart palpitations on a regular basis.

    Jefferson Davis can’t lie to himself anymore. No matter how much he hates vigilantes-- especially of the masked variety-- a child is a child. And a dad is a dad.
