Summary
After years of suffering abuse, torment and fear, Rei Todoroki has had enough. So she packs her bags and flees, taking her four children and vanishing into obscurity.
Mostly.
Ten years later, a white-haired vigilante with a frightening ice quirk and an anti-abuse agenda sits at the top of the police's radar, attracting both praise and criticism everywhere she goes.
But some things are meant to be. And people like the Todoroki family were never meant to stay hidden.

Summary
“We’re going to fight,” he insists. “And if you win, I’ll leave.”
You don’t like the way that sounds. Your heart pounds. “And if I lose…?”
His yellow eyes seem to glow in the dim light. “If I win, I’m gonna bitch you.”
Eijirou Kirishima grows up next door to the Rappas, who care for him during his mother's late shifts at the hospital. The Rappas' son Kendo should be the ideal playmate—he's an alpha just like Kirishima and only two years older than him. As they grow up together, however, Kendo Rappa becomes...aggressive. Almost villainous. He insists that no omega is tough enough to handle him, but he's still adamant that he'll only take an omega as a mate—and Kirishima doesn't understand what he really wants until it's too late.
Most of this fic is set during Kirishima's first year at U.A. following traumatic events. The primary ship is bakukiri...with complications. It's second person POV but not reader-insert. If you're not used to 2nd POV, give it a chance—maybe you'll be surprised!

Summary
After All Might’s master is killed by All for One, he is is found and trained by the commission as their symbol of peace. This changes things…
~
The commission's orders had been clear. As was the memory of his smiling master.
Still Yagi wavered. Izuku Midoriya had proven to be a kind, compassionate, selfless boy. Yagi had genuinely enjoyed their time together, working on the beach. He had assumed if he broke off contact with the boy that the positive feelings would wither and die. And yet the months apart had only strengthened Yagi’s desire to see the boy. To tousle Izuku’s hair, and laugh as the boy rambled over heroes.
But that time was gone, Yagi told himself, shaking his head. And thinking about the past would only make this hurt more.
Yagi gritted his teeth and pressed send. He couldn't delay anymore.

Summary
He won’t spill All Might’s secret.
Even if All Might deserves it.
Even if he knows that he’s loved in the Quirkless community and they would all believe him without hesitation.
There’s no need. Izuku believes in karma, and based on the way All Might’s going, based on the way he’s clearly too foolish to manage his time appropriately and too foolish to take care of himself and too foolish to retire...
It’s only a matter of time before karma comes around for that man. It was humorous that All Might had the nerve to tell him to be realistic when he wasn’t being realistic about his own limitations. Izuku didn’t think he was going to be the next number one hero. Izuku only wanted to be a hero that put people at ease, and he didn’t think that was something that was too extreme. The only thing All Might was on a path towards was putting himself in a grave.
Fucking idiot.
Izuku would show him realistic.

Summary
"We're really sorry," his father says, in a teary-eyed, wobbly way. "But your friend, Izuku, he's... He's gone, son."
Katsuki can do nothing but blink up at them for moments that feel like an eternity, eyes darting between both his parents in obvious confusion, disbelief, and, more than anything, indignation.
"What the fuck are you two talking about? The damn nerd is standing right beside you!"During a battle, Midoriya gets hit by a villain whose quirk detaches his soul from his body. Stuck in a ghost-like state, the boy enters a race against time in order to save himself from permanently dying. Much to his luck - or lack of it -, the only person who can see and talk to him in this state is no one other than Kacchan.
Alternatively: Deku and Kacchan are soulbound.

Summary
When a raid goes wrong, and Aizawa gets taken, he's hardly expecting to be found.
He's a professional Underground Hero. He's seen situations like this play out before, and knows how the cards usually fall.
He's got people he'll miss of course, and he feels terrible about what this is going to do to Hizashi and Eri, but these are the types of risks he agreed to when he signed on the dotted line all those years ago. He's ready to accept his fate.
It's a good thing his former students are tenacious little shits.

Summary
“Well, it seems a bit funny…” Shinsou’s drawling voice trailed off, becoming slightly sharper by the word, “...that the three students with the most villainous quirks were set up for this.”
Tokoyami jerked upright. “You do not mean that-.”
“Oh he means it,” Bakugou growled out with narrowed eyes, “ pencil-ass set us up to play his goddamn villains because we’re good at it.”Or:
Aizawa assigned Tokoyami, Bakugou, and Shinsou to play as the villains in the end year exam against the rest of the class.
Aizawa accounted for Bakugou's rage, Shinsou's asshole tendencies, and Tokoyami's self-esteem.
Aizawa did not account for the pure, unholy wrath, of three very petty teenagers who like to make a point.Here's the TV Tropes page, because apparently chaos loves company
