Summary
Izuku didn't want to be a villain. He had wanted to be a hero, but so what? Life wasn't fair, and there was no point crying over it. All For One really wasn't so bad, sure he broke his bones and let his men hurt Izuku and made him do bad things... and sure he had some weird orders, like telling Izuku to turn himself in.
Heros were weird too. I mean who made a villain rehab center? At a school no less...
~~~
OR: Basically Izuku was forced to be a villain be AFO, and is ordered to turn himself in. He does and is then sent to UA for a villain rehab program that just started up.Bookmarked by IAmABettle

Summary
Izuku fell backwards onto the floor for the third time that day, with the door handle still in his hands, definitely no longer on the door. Izuku could no longer hear anything over the pounding of his heart threatening to beat out of his chest. He raised his eyes back from his hands to the door, to find the door still shut. Izuku was completely, and utterly, fucked.
Or; What if Izuku never made it off the roof after All Might left him?

Summary
Izuku went to cat cafes on the regular, maybe once or twice a fortnight. It was a way for him to escape reality and spill his guts to a cat. It was nice it felt...safe. After a few times of going there he noticed someone who looked like a very sleep deprived homeless man he logically assumed he was a regular and didn't really pay him mind. But after a good few sessions at the café, he quickly realised that holy shit that’s eraserhead! of course usually people wouldn’t know who he was he is a under ground hero after all but he’d had a few run ins with the pro… well more like walking trying to calm his racing mind at night, seeing him on the top of a roof, going on an internet rabbit hole and fan-boying over who he is. I mean what pro hero fights quirkless!? But what if he wasn’t the pro and Izuku was just insane or what if he doesn’t want to be publicly recognised. So Izuku kept to himself.

In which Izuku meets his new family through trauma and fear.

Summary
Eleven year old Izuku stood as still as he could as the man in front of him rambled. He could barely hear the garbage he was spouting about ‘no heroes coming to save him’ over the pounding in his chest. However, even that man didn't know how right he would be.

Izuku Midoria. Deaf. Quirkless. Tired. And done with Kachan's shit.
Its been almost a year since he lost the majority of his hearing. And he's doing his best to learn to cope with being disabled on top of being quirkless. It would be easier if his school mates would stop messing up his hearing aids.

Summary
The cheering crowd circled the makeshift ring at the center of the warehouse floor, fists in the air and gaping mouths screaming obscenities at the two idiots in the ring.
Izuku was one of those idiots.
“Kid - get the hell up!” Izuku snapped his attention to Giran
“You wanna fucking tag in, Giran?”
“Fuck no, but if you throw this match I’m out a lot of fucking money.”
Izuku’s opponent was a big fucking bastard, the biggest he’d fought to date, actually.
_____
OR: Izuku is an underground fighter, when the heroes raid his fight, slap a villain rank on his name, and force him into a reform program at UA, will he find a way to keep fighting, to prove to the world (and to himself) that his value doesn't lie in how much blood he can spill?

Summary
High school was supposed to be a chance for him to figure out who he was and what he actually wanted to be
Then he passed the UA exam.That wasn't right. That wasn't what he planned at all.
He either needed to resign himself to playing the same old roles for another few years or find a way to break the cycle before the stress broke him.

Summary
“Tomura,” Kurogiri intones to the sour-faced young man, “what would you like for breakfast? I can make you and Izuku-kun something traditional, or there is Nutella on croissants, or pancakes with—”
“Shut up!” Shiga growls.
He turns to Izuku; the look on his face is like walking into a room where the windows are covered up, and ripping all the blinds open at once. Cobwebs, grime, dust, all of it gone as airy gold floods the space. Shiga’s grin stretches from one ear to the other. This is the brother of Shiga’s manic grin for bloodshed and gaming; it is the cousin of the tiny smile (secretly) reserved for corgis.
He opens his arms to Izuku, fingers plucking the air in their eagerness: come to me, come to me, come to me…
--
When a fledgling Shigaraki dry-runs an abduction, he returns with a hero who never met All Might. The aspiring mass murderer decides to keep him. Forever.
While Izuku’s caring instincts saved him, they also sentenced him to a life as the plaything of an unstable teenager. Izuku wants things; to see his mother again, for starters, and ultimately to become a hero. If Izuku wants to realize his dreams, he must become real in his captor’s eyes.

The crown and the scepter by silverynight
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia (Anime & Manga)
07 Apr 2026
Tags
Summary
Izuku gets surprised as he quickly glances in the throne's direction and sees a young man, albeit older than himself (probably 27 or 28), sitting on it with a golden crown upon his blond head and a silver scepter in his left hand. He wears a dark tunic with orange fabric secured to the side with his golden belt. And over his shoulders a cape that has golden feathers on its right side.
He looks very handsome and pretty muscular for someone who (Izuku thought) only stayed in his throne or his chambers the whole day. He was probably trained as a warrior as well. The look on his face is cold and almost detached, but he doesn't blame him for that, he lost both his parents after all.
No, it was ever worse: they were taken from him.
However, that doesn't justify his actions towards innocent people.

Summary
Katsuki had never had time for anyone but himself.
Himself, and Izuku midoriya.
Katsuki hated that this weak little shit could do anything. He hated that Deku always got up looking weak as ever, and no one even noticed. He hated that a snot-nosed, noodle-armed daisy picker could keep up with him. It did not matter what Katsuki did, Deku would take it, like Katsuki hadn’t even scratched his surface when Katsuki knew he was bone fucking deep. There was nothing he could do to scare, change, or stop Deku. Nothing.
Katsuki was obsessed.

Summary
Izuku only wanted to be a hero, nothing more. But what is being a hero if not being Bakugou´s punching bag in UA, just like in Aldera? What is being a hero if quirkless are still being oppressed? If Izuku wants to help ...maybe he needs to stop being a hero.
And some of the pieces here were inspired by a conversation I had with someone on the server.

Summary
Midoriya Izuku's dreams were shattered on the rooftop that day. Worse, none of the pros seem to believe that a quirkless nobody could ever be a hero. They're probably right, but he's still determined to try, especially since the heroes don't seem to be doing all that great at their jobs anyway. Izuku will do whatever it takes to save people, even if that means coming into contact with several shady characters for help. His methods might be a little strange, but in a world determined to shut him out, he has to make do with what he can.
Oddly enough, the only people able to accept him are villains. So when his world starts to crumble, why wouldn't he join them?Series

Summary
All his life, nobody truly believed in Midoriya Izuku's dream of being a Hero. Not his mother, his childhood friend, his classmates or teachers...not even the Number One Hero believes in him. What is a Quirkless boy to do?
Show the world it's wrong, that's what. Finally, after years of no one believing him, there was one man who did. After All Might left Izuku on a roof with the answer of 'no', one man who was not a Hero finally told the boy, "I believe you can become a Hero." Izuku wants to prove the man right.
Short version: One person, who is NOT a Hero, finally tells him yes, and Izuku decides to become a Hero through the Support Course, making friends along the way.
