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.

When the Yaoyorozu's end up down on their luck and indebted to a villainous information broker, Giran ends up taking an unusual form of payment: A child with a quirk that can create anything.
Now Momo is Giran's greatest asset. She's even started her own bit of brokering, connecting with Hatsume whose unique inventions continuously expand Momo's range of creations.

Summary
“You’re… the only one interviewing me? I thought it was always three people,” Izuku said.
“That’s the first interview, and that’s usually enough, but sometimes I… take an interest.” She sat down on the couch beside him. “I read over your exam information, the transcript of your interview, and looked at your application. Noticed you’ve been a paramedic since the age of fifteen. Awful young to start doing that kind of work. May I ask why?”

Summary
Ever since her public defeat and humiliation at her first Sports Festival, Momo Yaoyorozu has been facing an uphill struggle to be recognized for her merits, to not have her achievements swept under the rug. By the time she realizes that the festival and the system itself had been skewed against her all along, it's too late for her to change the way she is seen by others in spite of her best efforts. Upon graduation, she faces a world whose only view of her is as a corrupt "hero" too incompetent for "real" hero work, her wealth and family connections used to "prove" her as a "fake", and most of her former classmates far too naive and optimistic to do more than offer false reassurances even as they overshadow her and unwittingly keep her further sidelined.
If the world won't allow her to help other people, she'll force that world to change by any means necessary.
Now complete!

Summary
Izuku Midoriya's Quirk was...dangerous. Since the age of four he knew what true nightmares were made of. Demons were the soldiers of hell, and they made it their mission to terrify him for fun. Peeling skin, black sillouhettes, and grating screams that froze him in place where only a part of it. Their words and dark hymns followed him, crushing his body and soul.
But not as much as his mother did. Inko was prone to using her fists and venomous words to beat him down, and she was worse than the demons who followed him day and night.
"God does not shine upon you,"
The demons repeated it like a mantra, and they were all right. God hated them all, the fallen wingless angels who he damned for eternity. He loathed Izuku too, the boy who could see them. Izuku was cursed with an uncontrollable Quirk, but he tamed those demons. They were his, and his alone.
God sneered at him, and he smiled devilishly back. God had given the demons exactly what they needed...
Izuku Midoriya. A King.

Watch Your Heroes Fall by b00mgh

Summary
News anchors are stationed nearby, blue fire rages over buildings, but the only ash in the air is from the thousands of flyers that drift from city rooftops to the ground.
On top of a bus stands Midoriya Izuku. His unremarkable green hair seems wild in the harsh light of Dabi’s flames. He’s flanked on either side by Shinsou Hitoshi and Yaoyorozu Momo, and in formation around them is the League of Villains.
People run screaming from the display, and news anchors know better than to get too close to the action when the League of Villains is involved– they’ve been known to injure and even kill bystanders on a whim.
The linchpin of the new group seems to be Midoriya Izuku, and as he laughs in an unhinged way and raves about the injustice of hero society, nobody is interested in what he’s saying so much as the fact that he is saying it. He’s gone off the deep end.
The pamphlets that litter the ground and begin to circulate online (even as the hero commission tries to censor them) read with just one line of text in red writing against a black background:
"Watch Your Heroes Fall"Izuku always wanted to be a hero, until he saw what being a hero meant. So he found a better way to help others.

Summary

Before long he's pining like an idiot, being teased by Shinso and being hurled head first into a nightmare villain case...

Summary
I'm always here for you, even if nobody is here for me.Midoriya Izuku is a normal boy. He has a Quirk and everything! But a seemingly weak Quirk isn't enough. Being kind isn't enough. And so Izuku suffers, even as he refuses to let go of his goals. He will be a hero, no matter what it takes, because he can be. Despite all the voices telling him he can't, he can. Izuku just has to prove it.
"Midoriya Izuku, four years old and already an anxious child, is waiting for his Quirk to come in. He’s been waiting for eight days, four hours and… thirty seven minutes. -- And then it came. It didn’t arrive in a flurry of sparks that stained the air with a sweet smell like Kaachan’s, or tear through a worksheet halfway through class like Shibata’s extendable fingers, or mean that he comes into school one day with big dragon wings like Tsubasa. Instead, Izuku wakes up on the twelfth day, and he isn’t human. "
TLDR - Izuku has a kitsune Quirk and is determined to become an underground hero - he will makes lots of friends and a whole Yamazawa family along the way, although things are never quite easy.Series
