    Summary

    Izuku's only truly used his quirk once. He was four years old.
    He took thirty-two lives that day.
    Now, he's sworn never to let that power possess him again. Hiding the true nature of his quirk from everyone, he hides behind the thin facade of a useless, showy quirk, refusing any and all connection to the mysterious creature recognized in a few sparse news reports as the Leviathan.
    Lies don't last forever, however, and one day or another, his world will have to come crashing down.

    Summary

    Midoriya Izuku made a mistake. Actually—it was more like a series of mistakes that in the end had blown up in his face. After failing to be admitted to UA due to his lack of quirk, Midoriya became angry at the pro heroes for their inability to see past his quirklessness and give him a chance to achieve his one goal in life. So, in his anger, he turned to the League of Villains.
    Now, Midoriya is beginning to regret his past decisions. He begins to realize their beliefs about society no longer mirror his own and attempts to cut all ties to the League. In order to fill the emptiness in his life, he decides to help people the only way he has left: become a vigilante.
    After all, you can't break the law prohibiting the use of quirks to fight crime if you don't have a quirk in the first place.

    tl;dr: Midoriya leaves the League of Villains because he doesn't want to kill people and becomes a vigilante instead.

    Summary

    "Can I be a hero without using my quirk?"
    Midoriya Izuku has a quirk. But it's one he doesn't want, one he refuses to use, for fear of hurting his mother. He hates it.
    Despite that, he still wants to be a hero.
    This is his story. A story of a boy who learns to overcome his emotional roadblocks to become a hero and learn to accept his quirk for what it is: a part of him. It's not his father's quirk, it's his own.

    Summary

    It goes a little something like this:

    Izuku isn't real. Not in the sense that he cannot be perceived but in the sense that he is not registered in any database, legal or otherwise. He isn't real in the sense that the people who meet him believe him to be a hallucination at first. He isn't real in the sense that neither he nor his quirk should exist. Izuku isn't real.

    Until he is.

    All of a sudden, Izuku has a real dad (who's a hero!!), a brother who would die (and probably kill) for him, and a rag tag group of friends (and maybe someone more) and life doesn't look so bleak.

    It's a shame life was never the issue.

    Summary

    "Why are you doing this?" Shouta couldn't help but ask. Really, this kid couldn't be much older than his class, and he was already out his risking his life to fight... and was good at it. That was the worst part of all, that a child would act like an experienced soldier in the face of danger. "If you stop now, I won't report you. You can just go on home to your family, and maybe try to be a hero-"

    A laugh cut him off, but it was more sad than condescending. "Mr. Trash Bag, I'm doing all I can to get home. But like hell I'll be a hero. I've been used by the government too much." A slight European accent colored his words, and his Japanese was a little hesitant, but the determination was clear. "I have to admit, though, your quirk is really awesome. The ability to stop others' energies... remarkable."

    The boy tensed, and Shouta activated his quirk on reflex.

    "Too bad it doesn't work on me, then. Can't erase what you don't have, after all!"

    OR: Edward didn't want to help Truth. He didn't want to go to a different world to defeat yet another Father. He didn't want to be on the run again.

    He also wanted his brother back. The choice was obvious, even if Truth is a massive asshole.

    Summary

    When Midoriya Izuku died at the ripe old age of 89, he thought he was ready. He had lived a fulfilling life, after all, being the number one hero for over 50 years. He had grandchildren, and had passed on his power in order to train his protege well. So even though he died with regrets, it was with a smile on his face in the end.

    Except... He found out he had a quirk after all, and intends to fix everything he did wrong.

    ...Even if it's going to be a challenge when no one can understand him.

    Or: "Mikumo" is trying his best, but when dealing with stubborn kids, self-sacrificing idiots, weird time travel, and a whole town that loves him but doesn't take him seriously, he has his work cut out for him.

    "You either die a hero, or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain."

    Or, you're raised a villain, rebel when you're nine, and fight against the odds to become a hero anyway.

    That's how it is in Izuku's case.

    Summary

    Izuku Midoriya used to want to be a hero. It seems a distant dream, now, after everything that he's done—after everything that he's been made to do. But it's still there. It's a dim, flickering flame, burning lower by the day.

    He doesn't have time to concern himself with that though, these days he's too focused on staying alive to think too much about what he can never have.

    Then All Might takes a job teaching at UA, and the universe says hey you know what would be fun? What if we fucked Izuku over even more than we already have? and thus, Izuku ends up in the General Education class of UA with strict instructions to report everything he can, because, thank fucking no one, he just can't catch a goddamn break.

    AKA Hisashi Midoriya is a member of one of the most notorious underground supervillain organizations, and Izuku is being forced to help them (even though, trust him, he'd really rather not). Too bad that they don't predict that Izuku's going to get adopted by half the faculty when they send him to spy on the prestigious hero academy.

    Summary

    This is an orphaned work.

    Izuku Midoriya has always been observant. He makes connections that other people don't, and that's why he's so good at quirk analysis. It's why he can see just how much is wrong with hero society, too.

    He may be Quirkless, but Izuku will not let that stop him. He's going to change the way that things are, and that starts with getting himself into UA. People might not ever take him seriously, but he'll prove him wrong each and every time that they doubt him.

    Izuku is going to be a hero. He's going to be a hero for people just like him: the ones who are Quirkless and told that they'll never amount to anything. He's going to be a hero for people who have undesirable quirks, whether they're weak or "villainous". He's going to be a hero that understands the difference between criminal and villain, because too many people seem to be forgetting that difference. Izuku is going to be a hero who advocates and fights for change. He's going to be a hero who believes in giving villains second chances because they're people too.

    Izuku Midoriya is going to do more than change the system. He's going to break it.

    Summary

    "Do you miss me, Izuku?"
    "I don't remember you, so there's not much to miss," Izuku says into the phone and adjusts the homework he had been working on onto his lap. It doesn't occur to Izuku till after he's spoken that perhaps he shouldn't say such things to his father. But it doesn't matter in the end because the man on the other end of the phone laughs. Though not the soft melody Izuku is used to from his mother, its cold and lacking any actual humor.
    Izuku is 12.
    "You're interesting. You know that, son? Your friend too. After all, I don't know many that can be so disinterested in what happened that day in the forest," His father says, and Izuku doesn't miss a beat.
    "I'm sorry, dad. I'm not quite sure what you're saying," Izuku mutters into the phone. "But hey, what does three-sixths times seven-fifths times two-elevenths equal?"
    "Izuku, you killed someone."
    "He tried to kill me first."
    "I know but, can you blame me for being surprised; after all, he had a very powerful quirk," His father said in an amused tone.
    "Yeah and now I have a very powerful quirk."

    Summary

    Midoriya Izuku goes missing as a child. No villain is ever held accountable, no one ever brings his mother any answers. For ten years, the only people who remember the quiet, Quirkless boy are Inko and Bakugo Katsuki. They both feel his loss in different, inexplicable ways.

    Eraserhead's been on the hunt for an elusive villain only known by the press as 'Ghost'. No fingerprints, blood, or evidence of any kind can ever be found at the scene of the crimes. All of the villain's cases inevitably run cold.

    Izuku wishes he'd been born Quirkless after all. Maybe then, he could've believed in heroes. Maybe then, he could've turned into someone good.
