    Summary

    After a very bad day at school, Izuku makes a split-second decision to take matters into his own hands while waiting for his train. He feels like he's stuck in a tunnel of intrusive thoughts where there seems to be no light at the end—

    That is until he meets a strange man by the name of Aizawa Shota; a teacher who's like no other Izuku has ever met before. Caring and kind, someone who actually listens. Perhaps there is a light at the end of the tunnel after all?

    Maybe not all Heroes need a license to be a Hero.

    Summary

    On a Class A field trip, Izuku and Katsuki start accidentally cuddling each other in their sleep.

    When they get back to school, they find that they can't get to sleep without the other. So Katsuki suggests that they start cuddling on purpose. After all, they need a good night's rest if they're going to be the best heroes. A little codependency never hurt anyone, right?

    Summary

    Oh, Katsuki wants.

    He wants to touch, to play with Izuku’s sweaty curls and caress his tense neck. To fix his posture and massage his shoulders. Would Izuku let him? In another reality where Katsuki’s hands weren’t so deadly and the thread holding their relationship so fragile, would Izuku let him stroke his skin? Would he let Katsuki spend hours feeling the bumps of his scars, memorizing the texture of his moles? Would he let him trace over his freckles without leaving another mark behind?

    Katsuki hopes so. He really, really does.

    _____

    In which Katsuki spent fourteen years resisting the urge to touch Izuku until it all becomes too much and he gives in. But maybe, just maybe, things don't go quite as badly as he expects.

    Summary

    Izuku didn’t really know what he was thinking. Figuratively or literally.
    Figuratively, he didn’t know what he’d been thinking half an hour beforehand, when he left the convenience store and followed a suspicious noise off to the side.
    In a more literal sense, Izuku didn’t know what he was thinking because...well...he was bleeding out.

    Summary

    The summer after Harry's fourth year has become the worst of his life. The haunting memories of Cedric's death and Voldemort's revival were terrible enough on their own, but then came the strange visions of Death Eaters, the worsening pain in his scar, and the uncontrollable emotions that don't feel like his own. After fleeing Privet Drive, he finds himself stuck in an isolated cottage with his most hated professor: Severus Snape.

    ---

    Snape mentors Harry, no slash.
