Summary
The flesh had a will of its own, and right now, it wanted this. Simon hated it for its weakness.
Forgive me, Father, for I have—
Grace took him in his mouth.
---
Simon would like to stop thinking about Ryland Grace. He would also like to stop waking up hard every morning, stop reliving what happened on the beach, and stop making terrible decisions--like storming into Grace's cabin and demanding he get on his knees.
None of those things are going particularly well.
(Trans!Grace; both these men need therapy but especially Simon)

Izuku got hit with a de-aging quirk. No big deal, right? It's probably not permanent, and he's got his mom to take care of him.
Right?
Right?!I saw a comment on my other work, Brassy, requesting more Shouta and baby Izuku.

Summary
Midoriya Izuku has the world on his shoulders.
The power of One For All is difficult to hold up sometimes but Izuku is a hero at heart and nothing will sway him from that path- not even accidentally ending up thirteen years in the past, forced to continue his hero journey with the younger version of a once-teacher that hates him.
Izuku has always known Aizawa Shouta didn't like him, but something about him now- soft, unguarded, unhateful, and with a genuine smile pressing against the rim of his coffee cup, Izuku can't help but be drawn in.New class, new friends, family, relationships, mystery and at the center of it all- the overwhelming weight of his destiny on his back, Izuku faces it all as he says goodbye to the future and embraces the past.

Summary
Midoriya Izuku has had heroism running through his veins since he was four years old and the doctors told him he'd never get a quirk. He'd never get that thing- that special something- that all people had.
But not everyone had it. There was a whole world of people who didn't have it and Izuku finds himself a community that would go to war for him and he for them.
Meeting All Might, receiving his quirk, attending UA, making friends, and encountering the hot-and-cold moods of the Pro-Hero Eraserhead... none of these things will change his ultimate dream.
To be a Hero. To be a harbinger of destruction upon the carefully constructed "peace" of Japan- and the world.Midoriya Izuku has eyes all over and when he catches sight of you... peace is all you can hope for.

Summary
After a failed suicide attempt, years of bullying, and his mother's death, Izuku Midoriya doesn't think he has any option besides joining the League of Villains. After all, foster care is no place for a quirkless kid like him. Plus, working as a hacker and analyst for the League doesn't sound like it would be too bad. But, after meeting a hurt little girl in Overhaul's headquarters, Toga and Izuku can't just sit back and take orders from Shigaraki anymore. With some careful consideration, Izuku figures a villain reformation program at UA doesn't sound horrible, even if it means having to put up with Bakugou.

Summary
Shouta's gaze moved to his hand, where a tiny, chubbier one wrapped around his index finger.
He looked at the kid whose eyes are puffy, red, and shiny like he's been crying and giant green irises stared at Shouta’s hand with a level of focus that only a child can have. He turned his gaze to the mother intending to get her attention but the notion died as he scanned the woman, distracted with a not-so-good looking phone call if the worried frown pinching her face and her fingers wringing in the front of her cardigan is any indication.
He sighed and let the kid play with his fingers, cooperating by turning his hand over when it was gently tugged, and watched the toddler count the lines on his palm in tiny murmurs and intense concentration, poking each one as he went, tired little sniffles every few seconds filling the silence. Looks like Shouta isn’t the only one who had a shitty day.
~
Aizawa Shouta, a new prohero, planned on getting some sleep on the train after a long exhausting day, like he always does, before heading back to the police station, but his plans get left at the train stop when a young mother and her toddler board his train.

Summary
Over the course of one week, Midoriya Izuku sees his childhood friend turned bully face consequences for his actions, gets appreciated for his skills, acquires a boyfriend that sits right in front of him, realizes that his grumpy homeroom teacher is actually on his side, and tells Aizawa Shouta the truth about One for All.
All of that information, however? It's happening in the background. Follow our hero: Aizawa Shouta aka Eraserhead.

During this time, Aizawa learns things he should have known from the start, talks to a lot of people, drinks so much hot chocolate, loves his husband, feeds his cat, gets a shocking six hours of sleep, reflects on his past, and learns the truth about a legend passed through underground heroics for decades.

the cute guy next door (might be a villain) by Alesyira

02 Nov 2022

Summary
Quirkless, young adult Midoriya Izuku has a problem. Namely, he has a crush on his purple haired, tired-looking neighbor. They keep running into each other and the guy is actually pretty nice under that deadpan facade, has a sense of humor, doesn't seem to judge anyone for their quirk status, and is constantly spoiling any cat in the building that finds him. (He's also a shameless flirt.)
But Izuku has concerns. About the strange bruises and bloodied knuckles. About the weapons he's seen when stopping by for a cup of sugar. About the shady-looking figures he's accidentally spotted his neighbor meeting with. About the fact that right after the news reported a big crime bust, his neighbor came home beat all to hell and looking haunted.
Izuku has a problem. Namely, he has a crush on his neighbor, who he's pretty sure is secretly a villain. And he has no idea what to do with that.
(or: Adult!ShinZuku AU where Shinsou is an underground, undercover pro hero trying to find a lead on a case that may or may not involve the socially awkward guy living next door. Misunderstandings abound.)

Summary
“Mother... if I were... In the event that one found oneself... shall we say interested in interacting with someone who was not normally included in our social circles, would that... would one find oneself quite dismissed from the family, do you suppose?”
The first wizarding war didn't end. It just changed tactics.
Hidden in bureaucracy, buried in laws, and baked into bloodlines, wizarding society is still divided into those who belong, and those who don't. But Hermione Granger has never backed down from a challenge, and she's never wanted anything more than to belong.
Not every war is fought with battles and curses. Some are fought with hushed conversations, careful compromises, and a revolution that begins in a library.
[This story begins in third year and updates Sundays and Tuesdays.]

Bookmarker's Notes
Basically went on a reading bender and got through this whole thing in a little over two days. My god I need sleep. It's excellent, though also harrowingly realistic about the... frustrations of societal progress (and regress). I picked it up for the "Draco malfoy in the muggle world" tag, because I love characters being Put In Situations, and especially appreciated the expanded worldbuilding. Though now I'm worried that all future fics where Draco isn't besties with JFF will feel like they're missing something very integral to him

"Are you going for the course?" Lovegood asked. "You have the NEWTs.”
“What course?” Draco said, then, “No, don’t be ridiculous,” when he realized she meant the notice pinned up on the board he’d been staring at: Applicants To The Introductory Mediwizard Course For The Coming Term Shall Present Themselves In The Chief Mediwizard’s Office By August 24th.
“Oh, I thought you might,” she said. “Well, goodbye.” And off she wandered again in her addled way.

Hermione frowned. “The real question is why the magic of Britain would be failing now, in fact.”
“That is not the real question!” Ron said loudly; he’d woken up fully by now, and Harry had too; it was starting to sink in that they’d found the problem. “The real question is, how do we fix it?”

Jason smirked. “I know everyone in my alley.”
“Your alley?” Dean raised an eyebrow. “Thought this place was called Park Row.”
“So you are a tourist,” he said with a smug grin. “What are you doing in Gotham?”
Dean took a long drag of his coffee, putting the cup down with a smack of his lips. “Couldn't resist the welcoming atmosphere and general ambiance. This is a nice city you’ve got here.”
“No, it’s not.”
Dean snorted and finished the last of his pie. “No, it’s not.”
