The Strength Of Crystal (Of A Hero) by Otaku6337
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia
01 Oct 2021
Tags
Summary
One of the first things the world notices about Midoriya Izuku is his eyes.The very first thing they see is the blood and bruises, the war-torn scars and creases of a young hero. The second thing is his position, how he leads the Hell Class to crumbling, desperate victory against the League. The third thing? Well, that's his eyes.
~~~
A blur of green, a falling star and supernova all in one, falls from the sky.
"Nine!" The scream is malice-caught and grating, the edge of mania creeping in, and the green blur roars a wordless reply, shifting in the air, tumbling in a deliberate, tight movement. A boot crashes down upon nothing a trailing leg, where Shigaraki doesn't dodge quite quickly enough, one foot left in the path of the devastating kick.
He screams, with as much rage as agony, and the fight ensues.

Fissures In Flesh, Sediment-Sparkling Scars by Otaku6337
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia
01 Oct 2021
Tags
Summary
The more you scar, the less lovable you are. You're rough and jagged and broken inside-out, your heart-fractures and skin-splits exposed for all the world to see.The class love Aizawa-sensei more for his scars, and Izuku is confused.
Not because he hates Aizawa-sensei for his scars! No, the opposite. He's in awe of the man, their hero, who can bear something so ugly (it's kind of pretty, actually, obsidian veined through with amethyst and ruby-) as though it belongs upon his skin.

Summary
"Anger doesn't suit you." They're the first words that Shinsou says, after his story.He and Izuku are sitting in a stairwell. They're young, in some ways they're still babies at twelve years old, but the world has not been kind to them.
Oh no, it has been nothing short of unkind. It has been cruel and callous and utterly unforgiving, steel bars and rusting iron cages, bloodied fists and vitriol-spat words. The world has been cruel, the people crueller, and now they're kindred souls of the best and worst sort, sitting shoulder to shoulder in their now-shared school, confiding tales of that cruelty.

Forty Five Seconds, One Hundred Beats Per Minute by Otaku6337
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia
04 Oct 2021
Tags
Summary
All Might is too late.It's both as simple as that, and far, far more complex. At first, he doesn't know that he's too late, because there's no evidence left behind. But he is too late, and it makes far too much of a difference.
~~~
Today has been a day where she's extra light on her feet, ears twitching and gaze shifting as she leaps from street to roof to street again, ricocheting off of telephone poles and balconies and awnings as she moves, flipping and waving for any of the larger crowds. Fans are cool, even if some people are weird fuckers.
But Miruko isn't here for the fans, just like she isn't here to rub shoulders with the local heroes. They're not beneath her, but they are a bloody waste of time, particularly when there are people to save and baddies to beat the shit out of.
Now she just needs to find something to intervene with.

Knotted Laces, Knotted Hair, Knotted Heart by Otaku6337
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia
04 Oct 2021
Tags
Summary
In many universes, Midoriya Izuku never gets a Quirk.This universe, too, is one of those. He fights and falls and tries again, clawing his way out from the hellhole that was Aldera, and manages, by virtue of intelligence alone, he's sure, to get into UA. Of course, General Education isn't what he wants. It's good, one of the best general education courses in the entire country with a variety of career paths, even for someone Quirkless, but it's not what he wants. No, Izuku wants to be a hero.
But how is he meant to be a hero when he can't even save himself?
~~~
Aizawa is far from oblivious. He's seen "the Quirkless kid" around the school, and whilst they seem like a Problem Child, they seem like one with a good heart. So when he sees them taking nothing short of abuse, there's no chance he won't step in.
(Another piece for my Laces worldbuilding series, to go with the knot Inktober prompt!)

Under The Safety Of A Raven's Wing by Otaku6337
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia
05 Oct 2021
Tags
Summary
Izuku is lonely. He once thought that maybe, just maybe, he would find friends or even family at Hogwarts, that he would be accepted and helped and loved.That wasn't the case. He has good teachers and a few neutral people and lots of interesting magic to learn, but that's all he has.
Until the raven starts visiting him. Shiro is kind and stoic and clever, and he seems to care for Izuku more than anybody else ever has; he feels safe with Shiro, comfortable, content. Which is probably why he ends up telling the raven far more than he ever meant to.
(A good thing that Aizawa, or Shiro, is very willing to help. To care.)

The Kind Crandall, Leading The Children To Safety, Candle In Hand by Otaku6337
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia
06 Oct 2021
Tags
Summary
Izuku is officially Quirkless. There are no ifs or buts or questions to be raised, because who cares about one little Quirkless boy?What there are, however, are mistakes.
Because Izuku has no double toe joint. If one were so inclined, they could perform a full-body scan to conclude that he has no appendix, no tailbone, that his bone density is slightly different, and that, in the strands of his DNA, there does indeed lie a genetic Quirk Factor. Midoriya Izuku has a Quirk.
~~~
The candle spirit keeps on turning up, almost every night. That, however, isn't the only change, and the other is far more significant: they begin to help children. Oh, that sounds insignificant at first, something minor, except it's very much drawing attention. There's talk of a ghost or spirit or vigilante who leads lost children to their parents or a nearby police station; someone who distracts villains and abusers and bullies from their victims, and then leads the escaped children to the nearest hero or precinct.
The spirit protects Musutafu's children in silence and golden light, and Musutafu notices.

His Echoes Etched In Graphite by Otaku6337

Tags
Summary
Izuku is oh-so sure that something is wrong. He's been feeling it for days now, and it's refusing to go away. There's an itch along his spine, spiders trailing up and down and back again, and he knows the feeling of being watched, so why is he feeling it now?~~~
(The man watches, humming quietly to himself, hand moving without thought across the page. In graphite, a figure begins to form.)

Shatter-Aching, Pulled Right Apart (Held Together Only With You By My Side) by Otaku6337
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia
10 Oct 2021
Tags
Summary
Maybe that's an oversimplification, condensing down a disjointed night filled with half-formed malignance (it was reaching hands and heat searing enough to disintegrate, revealing black, bulging muscles ready to tear-) and waking up far too often until finally, finally, light begins to bloom behind his curtains, a faded thing that has his more reflective posters and desk things glinting ever so slightly. It allows Izuku to dare to hope.That fact is shown to be slightly illogical not long later, because he staggers out of bed only for his knees to already be giving way beneath him, tired mind and body too slow to catch himself before he's crumpling to the floor, his rug doing exactly nothing to cushion the thunder-crashing of it, joints howling and lungs spasming. His fingers clutch at nothing but their own scars.

Picked Apart By Rusted Nails (Pulled Together By Gentle Hands) by Otaku6337
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia
10 Oct 2021
Tags
Summary
Izuku twitches, resisting the urge to pick at skin and bones and the heart beneath. It's dark, and his Quirk is bright beneath his skin for all that he can't see it right now (he can feel it, like lightning arcing through his bones, a supernova between his marrow and flesh-), and he stares up at his ceiling, fighting for every breath.It hurts.
~~~
"Welcome home, Shou," he murmurs, glad when his husband is already shedding his boots and stepping up to his hands, slipping between the reaching arms."Mm. What's wrong?" Trust his Shouta to immediately pick up on Hizashi still being slightly unsettled. It's enough for the blond to be able to tighten his arms around his husband's waist, squeezing him close against the back of the sofa.
"Had a bad feeling. Thought it was you, but you're here now."
"Hn." Shouta pauses for a long second, leaning down to press a kiss to Hizashi's brow, unbearably tender despite the lingering scent of iron and sweat,
"Want to check on the kid?" Hizashi smiles again, oh-so soft,"Please."

Sour As Lemons, Sweet As Pie by Otaku6337
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia
12 Oct 2021
Tags
Summary
There had been a long debate as to which fruit they should take far too many of, one that may or may not have devolved into a full-on brawl, as too many things with their class does. Aizawa-sensei has long since given up trying to get them to use alternative methods.Izuku had won, after being dragged into the arguably-not-a-debate-anymore by Uraraka, and with Kirishima pinned beneath him, mumbling about apples into the grass, the freckled teen had declared a single word, voice steady and unwavering. Unrelenting.
“Lemons.” And so it had been decided.Series

Summary
"Oboro, when did Shouta say he'd be back?""Muh?" His hair drifts too slowly for how Oboro shoots his head up, cheeks stuffed with rice. It's cute. Either way though, the expression is gone quickly enough, wide eyes and puffed-out cheeks being replaced by rapid chewing and a gulp so ridiculous it would've made Hizashi cackle if he wasn't worrying about Shouta.
"Uhh, pretty quick? He was only going to the vending machines.""It's been ages," Hizashi grumbles, halfway petulant and halfway actually worried, poking at his takoyaki.
"Wanna go check on him?" Ah, Hizashi loves his friends.
(For my Star and Sunshine - it's only short, but hopefully it'll spark some joy all the same~)

Follow Your Heart To Find Your Home by Otaku6337
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia
14 Oct 2021
Tags
Summary
Hizashi loves his husband. He loves him a lot, more than there are constellations in the sky or songs he can sing, because Shouta is his Starshine.But whilst sometimes the sheer number of stray cats can get frustrating, it's very different than bringing home a whole entire child. One covered in dirt and scars and a mulish expression to contradict the genuine fear in their eyes. Their hair is shorn short with something that must have been fairly blunt because it's frayed and jagged and Hizashi's fingers are already twitching to try to detangle and neaten it up.
The kid is smart, scared, and glaring at both of them.
Hizashi honestly kind of loves them already.Series

Going Through A Mental Checklist, Building Up The Fears As We Go by Otaku6337
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia
15 Oct 2021
Tags
Summary
Aizawa finally has the time to pull in an associate with a truth-based Quirk, and to have his kids take a wellbeing quiz.One student's results are more than concerning.
~~~
Izuku is thinking hard. Aizawa-sensei has shared that it's a wellbeing questionnaire, and that fact admittedly puts him off a little bit. Several of his friends definitely have some problems that having help for would be good, that he would push towards talking to Aizawa-sensei because their teacher would undoubtedly do whatever needed to be done for them. But Izuku doesn't need that himself. Of course not. He's pretty much fine. Accordingly, there can't be anything wrong with agreeing to the truth Quirk, Izuku is sure. Well, he has nightmares and bad days, but that's normal, right?
(Some part of him knows that he's suffering, that he wakes up in the middle of the night unable to breathe, hands spasming with static-sharp agony, chest hitching and catching. He flinches from explosions and reaching hands and loud voices, and can barely stomach food cooked for the whole class by Kacchan sometimes. He sees rooftops and remembers the breeze against his face, the settling of his heart-)Series

Summary
A sequel to The Kind Crandall, Leading The Children To Safety, Candle In Hand so make sure to read that first!!~~~
(In a bed, a pale child lays beneath equally pale blankets, a steady beeping permeating the room just like the scent of vanilla and sandalwood, and twice a day a nurse applies fresh burn cream to his palms, for all of the good it will do. And Crandall wanders the streets.
But, despite all of his good, all of his kindness and dedication, there is one child that Crandall can’t save, and that child is himself.)Crandall, the spirit-child-vigilante, is there, the day when Aizawa needs him most. When his kids need such protection the most. And there's no way that, when the opportunity comes to find and help Crandall in return, Aizawa won't take full advantage.
He finds Midoriya Izuku in a coma, pale and oh-so fragile, the scents of vanilla and sandalwood lingering, and he knows that he will help this brave child.

An Eclipse-Born Blood Moon, The Safest Of Sights by Otaku6337

Summary
Shouta fights best under moonlight. But that doesn't mean he can't fight under daylight.Capture weapon whirling, eyes flashing, he lets himself snarl and snap as he moves. That's his kid that's bloody-templed and trying to get back to his feet, knives in hand and a matching Cheshire snarl of his own. They're both Aizawas, after all.
And with this knowledge held iron-clutched to their breastbones, they fight.
(A little kidilante OS for a change of pace, but you don't need to have read kidilante for this, honestly-)

The Hero's Death (We All Die Twice, Yet Only Live Once) by Otaku6337
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia
23 Oct 2021
Tags
Summary
Izuku died today.~~~
There's a little known fact in Heroics, a secret passed from teacher to student or parent to child but never beyond: they all die twice.
Their first could be at any time, at any point. It might be their first internship, their first patrol, or twenty years a veteran, caught out at a bad time. There's no rhyme or reason, only life and death and waking up again when they really, truly shouldn't have.
This is the Hero's Loop. None of them know why or how it happens, but it does, and they don't take it for granted. No, they keep it a closely-guarded secret because they know, oh, how even the corrupt ones know, what could happen were this to become well-known, and every hero, from the kindest to the cruellest, take this one secret beyond their first grave and all the way to their second.
(This is a concept I've had waiting to be written forever, and "loop" was more than the perfect opportunity~)

Patterns (Breaking Out, Breathing At Last) by Otaku6337

25 Oct 2021
Tags
Summary
There's a pattern to Midoriya Izuku's life. If he sometimes feels a little like he's drowning beneath it all, then at least he's being productive, right?~~~
There's a pattern to Midoriya Izuku's behaviours.
It takes time for Aizawa to piece them together, doubly so when it comes to how little time and energy he has when the class are constantly dealing with villain attacks and media exploitation and school exams, and how little he can truly observe the class without the interference of those things.
He still notices, even if it does take far longer than the hero himself is comfortable with.
And there's no way that, now he has noticed and has the opportunity to act upon it, that he's going to let his Problem Child keep on suffering and struggling. No, he's going to help his kid, and if maybe that goes further than even he was expecting, then the hero certainly won't be upset about it.
It's his Problem Child after all.

Smudged Graphite, Echoes Erased by Otaku6337
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia
24 Oct 2021
Tags
Summary
An alternate ending to His Echoes Etched In Graphite so don't forget to read that first for the context and vibes~---
"Midoriya, kid?"
"Se-" There's a pause, a single tumbling eon, and Aizawa drinks in every ounce of abyssal terror, the absolute, all-consuming mania, before there's a faint noise behind him, the brush of breath against his hair and sensation of eyes focused upon him, heavy and foreboding.
(Is this what his kid has been feeling the whole time? Has Izuku been so paranoid, with the shadows of his face growing darker, starker, and has he been so genuinely scared this entire while? Has Aizawa focused too much on talking to Nedzu and policemen, and not enough on making sure that Izuku was coping with all of this? The kid had his friends around him constantly, was smiling with them and concentrating well in classes and exercises, but Aizawa had known at least some of it to be fake. Maybe he didn't see through enough of the façade. Maybe he failed his kid. His Problem Child.)
He's being watched, and there's someone behind him.

What Is A Titan To A God? (A Loved One To A Hero?) by Otaku6337
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia
31 Oct 2021
Tags
Summary
Tsuyu stands, frozen, and watches on with the awe of the devout, because here is a god against a titan, and the thought that it's her classmate is as ineffable as the strength itself, all bursts of sparks and smoke and whips, a mass of Quirks against Quirks, and Izuku - Deku - is beyond any god imaginable.Being in their class, the Hell Class, they are no strangers to strength. Nor to fear. They know what it is to face down villains with far more power and ruthlessness than themselves; equally, they know what it is to be the person in the room with the most power, the one with the choice to hurt or help, with lives in their hands. This, however, is something else again.
(This does have some level of manga spoilers, but most of it is more alluded briefly to than truly stated, the focus is just on Izu being cool, so make of that what you will!)
