Summary
They were supposed to rescue eighteen children. Instead they found seventeen dead bodies and a little boy who no longer remembered how to live.
Izuku survived, but sometimes, he wished he hadn't. Recovery, it turns out, is much more complicated than rescue.OR
I couldn't find the 'Izuku was kidnapped and experimented on by Garaki, and is then rescued by Aizawa and eventually adopted by ErasurMic' fic that I wanted, so I wrote it myself. Includes a heavily traumatised Izuku, dadzawa and found family, and eventually Izuku learning to have fun again.

The Things We Build by winterkat44

Summary
Everyone always talked about heroes. The ones who defeated the villains, who saved the victims. The ones in the spotlight. But nobody talks about the people behind the scenes. Izuku Midoriya wanted to be a hero once, but then on a rainy rooftop, his dream died. Then a new one was born from the glow of a computer screen.
Seven years later, Izuku spends his time coding, encrypting, analysing, and quietly helping people under the alias ‘Firewall’. He doesn’t want to stand on the front lines anymore. He wants to be the one to make sure the heroes can. U.A’s Cyber Engineering Track is supposed to be the first step towards that future.
Or:
Izuku thinks his biggest problem is getting into his dream school. The universe disagrees. Enter one sleep-deprived boy with impossible ambitions, one support gremlin with absolutely no volume control, and a growing list of problems that can’t be solved from behind a screen.
Izuku gave up on heroics years ago. Unfortunately, heroics don’t seem interested in giving up on him.

Summary
Izuku steps towards the other teen, holding his hand out to shake, “I’m Midoriya Izuku by the way. We haven’t officially met yet, right? I don’t remember seeing you at the Entrance Exam?”
The blue-haired boy pauses, studies his hand uncertainly before shrugging. “Shirakumo Oboro,” he introduces in return, hand phasing right through Izuku’s when he goes to return the handshake. Shirakumo doesn’t seem surprised by it, but Izuku whips his hand back when the intense chill climbs up his arm.
or,
Izuku tries to pretend eveything is okay even though his homelife is crumbling around him, there's an insanely powerful Quirk that's not entirely his coursing through his veins, he suddenly knows his childhood hero, All Might, and to top it all off, he seems to have befriend a pastel blue-haired ghost that has way too much insider knowledge on Izuku's new homeroom teacher, and English teacher. He's really just trying to survive Yuuei...

Summary
Izuku is five years old the first time he's saved by heroes. He's an instant fan of the woman in pink with her cheerful smile and the man with his ice powers and fine-boned features, even if they both refuse to tell him their names.
For most of his life, Izuku has been the centre of villain attacks, but he has never been injured. Every time, he's saved by bright, unknown heroes—heroes who smile at Izuku, and ruffle his hair or ply him with hugs, and seem mesmerised by how small he is.
Heroes that the rest of the world doesn't believe exists.
(Time-travelling Class 1-A AU)

Summary
“So we’ll just blurt out random things?” Mina asked. “Like the fact that I can’t eat sandwiches not cut down the middle?”
Snickers rose from the class as she turned a bright red.
Aizawa sighed. “Not exactly. The quirk is a weird mix between a truth quirk and a prone to suggestion quirk, thanks to the boy's parents. It means you’ll be under the effects of a normal truth quirk, but you also won’t have the ability to keep yourselves from oversharing.”
“So we’ll all be spouting fucking word vomit like Deku?!”
“Yes, Bakugou. Fucking word vomit.”

Or
Class 1-A is hit by a very powerful truth quirk, and lots of things come out. Some things are quite harmless - quite the opposite, really - others are quite funny, and some open wounds that never really healed.

Summary
Denki is twelve when he is flicking through the TV channels and lands on an old RomCom movie about soulmate marks – specifically the same type that he has.
“I can’t believe I’ve had to walk around with a cheap pickup line written on my ankle my entire life because of you!” The leading lady yells at the leading man as he stares at her in awe.
Denki laughs.
“Oh no.” His mother says, watching him.
“Oh no, indeed.” His sister repeats quietly.
