    Summary

    (Formerly known as Into the Deku-Verse)

    Shota sneers at the teenager across from him. His defense raises like the hairs on the back of his neck as he glares steadily, ready and waiting for whatever will come from this encounter. He narrows his gaze when the teen shifts; just the thought of sharing this rooftop with Japan's most notorious villain makes his skin prickle. “Deku.”

    “Y-yes!” the teenager cries out in relief, taking a small step towards Shota, “I’m Deku! I’m so g-glad you—”

    “Deku,” Shota growls darkly, flicking out his capture weapon hastily to snag the villain before he can make his move. He's quick to tug it taut, leaving no room for Deku to escape. “You’re under arrest.”

    “I-I’m what?! W-wait!”

    tl;dr

    Hero Course student Izuku comes to the realization that he is definitely not where he's supposed to be.

    Summary

    Izuku’s life doesn’t just veer off course - it detonates.

    After the sludge villain incident, after Bakugou leaves him broken and bleeding in an alley.

    Instead of a hero's rescue, he gets the Hero Killer.

    Instead of safety, he gets dragged into the League of Villains and tied to a debt he never asked for and can’t refuse.

    It should’ve been the end of everything he hoped for. It should’ve been the worst thing that ever happened to him.

    And maybe, in some ways, it was.

    But somewhere between becoming Stain’s personal informant and the League’s analyst, Izuku starts to understand something:

    He isn’t nearly as powerless as he used to be.

    Summary

    He was avoiding it.

    I don't know what to write...

    It was a lie.

    Izuku had an idea, he just didn't want to face it.

     

    ~or~

     

    Class 1-A is told to write a paper about where they think they'd be in life at that moment if heroics wasn't a choice, and Izuku can't seem to pick up the pencil to write, because the only thoughts in his mind were of tall buildings and set aside shoes.

    Summary

    Hitoshi Shinsou is home alone, he has been for three months. And that’s fine because he doesn’t need his mum, he doesn’t need friends and he definitely doesn’t need pro heroes worming their way into his life.

    And then he brainwashes the only person he trusts and everything falls away at the seams.
