    Summary

    Izuku only wanted to be a hero, nothing more. But what is being a hero if not being Bakugou´s punching bag in UA, just like in Aldera? What is being a hero if quirkless are still being oppressed? If Izuku wants to help ...maybe he needs to stop being a hero.

     

    And some of the pieces here were inspired by a conversation I had with someone on the server.

    Summary

    Midoriya Izuku's dreams were shattered on the rooftop that day. Worse, none of the pros seem to believe that a quirkless nobody could ever be a hero. They're probably right, but he's still determined to try, especially since the heroes don't seem to be doing all that great at their jobs anyway. Izuku will do whatever it takes to save people, even if that means coming into contact with several shady characters for help. His methods might be a little strange, but in a world determined to shut him out, he has to make do with what he can.
    Oddly enough, the only people able to accept him are villains. So when his world starts to crumble, why wouldn't he join them?

    Summary

    Midoriya Izuku has:
    - a shapshifter quirk and spends a bit too much time as an animal instead of as a human,
    - little regards for the law,
    - a rodent and a commission keeping an eye on him
    - and a supporting family.
    He lacks a little in the friend department but that's fine, he will probably get there.

     

    Or: crack with a plot :D
    Edit: This turned out less crack and more plot than i anticipated xD

    Summary

    All his life, nobody truly believed in Midoriya Izuku's dream of being a Hero. Not his mother, his childhood friend, his classmates or teachers...not even the Number One Hero believes in him. What is a Quirkless boy to do?

    Show the world it's wrong, that's what. Finally, after years of no one believing him, there was one man who did. After All Might left Izuku on a roof with the answer of 'no', one man who was not a Hero finally told the boy, "I believe you can become a Hero." Izuku wants to prove the man right.

    Short version: One person, who is NOT a Hero, finally tells him yes, and Izuku decides to become a Hero through the Support Course, making friends along the way.

    (This is part 1 of a series, continued in part 4, updates were every other Tuesday but are now monthly because life is a thing :P)

    Summary

    I have a tiktok if you wanna go check it out. My user is @saavaageauthor and there you will find Desperately Departing content, non-canon (and canon) angst, and more!
