are you All Might’s secret love child????
Just some of my all-time favourite BNHA fics that genuinely bring me joy, are masterpieces, and make me get that giddy holding-in-breath-thingy where I end up squealing like a chimapanzee.

Summary
Izuku Midoriya and Hitoshi Shinso are never going to be the kind of heroes that make civilains think ‘oh, thank god we’re saved,’ when they arrive at the scene. There's too much prejudice against them, so a kid with a villain quirk and one with no quirk at all are never going to be able to inspire that sort of trust.
So instead of becoming heroes that bring hope, they decide to become the next best thing.
The kind of heroes that make villains think, ‘oh, fuck, we’re screwed.’
This fic has a discord.

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 remembers what it was like to be considered quirkless. He remembers the staring, the pity, the apathy, the taunting, the insults. It was miserable.
Izuku knows how people with dangerous quirks have to be careful. The slightest twitch of a finger, a glance in the wrong direction, or an unintentional reflex could spell disaster. It is exhausting.
Izuku has seen enough and heard enough to know that not everyone is satisfied with the quirk they were born with. Some are too boring, too weak, too useless compared to the flashy quirks that their society prefers. He can't fault them for believing those things, even when he doesn't agree with them.
Izuku lives in a world where a person's worth is determined by their quirk. While he may not be able to change society's problems, there is something he can do: take other people's quirks and give them away. It's a strange quirk to have, but he's found a way to help people with it. And if he can help people with his quirk, then it follows that he should try to do as much good as possible.
At least, that's what Izuku believes. Some people don't seem to agree.

Summary
"I’m only two minutes late!” Izuku protested. Had he missed the start of an important test? None of the national, standardized tests were supposed to happen this month and even being two minutes late to one of those wouldn’t elicit this sort of reaction. They were discussing their career interest forms today, but that was it. Nothing time-critical was supposed to be happening.
“Midoriya, you were reported missing a week ago. No one has seen you for eight days. The police have been combing the city for you.”
"I’m sorry. What?”
Midoriya Izuku went missing for a week and turned up in a back alleyway with skills he's never even heard of and no memory of how he came by them. He resigns himself to never learning the truth of what happened to him, but he shouldn't waste this chance should he? He could become a hero with reflexes like these.

Summary
If Quirkless discrimination was a little bit worse, and if Izuku wasn't as forgiving...
Well.
(Featuring: All Might's Absolutely Horrible Teaching™, a slightly more self-aware Izuku, the League Of Villains, very little forgiveness, and a lot of traumatized kids.)

Summary
Hawks greedily begins sucking in as much oxygen as fast as he could. Every breath he takes caused his chest to tighten and a sharp pain to flare up at his sides. His vision was swimming in front of him, only adding to the horrible dizziness of his mind. When he finally gets his bearings, he looks down at his hand.
Only to freeze when he sees a single white flower petal resting in the palm of his hand.

Summary
It's his second year at UA, and Shinsou is finally, finally, transferring to the hero course. He's ready, he thinks, or hopes— either way, it doesn't matter, 'cause he's going to show everyone he's got what it takes. And it also doesn't matter that the longer he spends in the program, the more he can't stop thinking about a certain freckled wannabe-friend, and the more he's noticing that a certain stoic classmate is paying him a lot more attention than he'd like.
Whatever. Irrelevant. He's here to be a hero, not make friends. Even if they would be the first ones he's made in...ever. But it's his second year, and he's going to make it count by focusing on what's important.
His name is Shinsou Hitoshi, and he's going to be a goddamn hero.

Summary
“I’m not a hero. Or a good person,” Katsuki says, giving Aizawa a pointed look, “So leave me alone. I don’t care about the League or UA, or you—” The two years he’s been away have been fine, more than fine, fucking fantastic actually if you ignore the bi-monthly near-death experiences. He doesn’t need this place. He doesn’t miss this place.
And yet, longing, a childish desire to tear up, or maybe blow something to bits, they all twist in his chest like a band of traitors regardless. “—I just want to go home.”
Or: the one where Katsuki and Izuku fail the first term exam, Aizawa discovers their pasts, and Katsuki is booted from UA. Featuring questionable descriptions of villain organizations, a slightly illegal moving shop, and your favorite emotionally constipated badass in distress with a newly discovered penchant for collecting strays.

Summary
on HIATUS, NOT abandoned!!!
—
“This is your kid Dabi, and I need you to take
her because they’re damn well going to kill me, we both know enough villains who were in foster care to know that that’s not a good option, she looks like you, and I’d rather not have the death of a baby on my conscience.”Dabi stared at the newborn, probably not even a week old in his old friend’s arms. Big blue eyes and tufts of red and white hair confirmed what they were saying. This baby was undeniably a Todoroki.
“What the fuck.”
-
Dabi becomes a father. Maybe Todoroki Touya isn’t as dead as he thought.
