    Summary

    “Alright.” Ito leans forward just a little. Her eyes seem to spark, just for a moment, but Izuku figures he’s just imagining it. “You say you need to work on control. Start like this, Midoriya: do what they tell you.”

    +
    Or: Midoriya finds himself the victim of an obedience quirk. The situation does not improve from there.

    Summary

    “Why are you telling me this?” Shōta asks calmly, confused.

    There’s a beat of silence over the phone.

    “You’re your son’s next of kin,” the social worker says slowly, almost accusingly, “you are the listed father on the boy’s birth certificate and since Midoriya Inko is no longer around to care for her child, sole guardianship is appointed to you as next of kin.”

    And Shōta’s brain stalls.

    His what?

    Summary

    After a very bad day at school, Izuku makes a split-second decision to take matters into his own hands while waiting for his train. He feels like he's stuck in a tunnel of intrusive thoughts where there seems to be no light at the end—

    That is until he meets a strange man by the name of Aizawa Shota; a teacher who's like no other Izuku has ever met before. Caring and kind, someone who actually listens. Perhaps there is a light at the end of the tunnel after all?

    Maybe not all Heroes need a license to be a Hero.

    Summary

    Of all the people to have been kidnapped alongside, it had to be this person, this hero, the one person who would never blame him for the things he was forced to do.

    “Don’t cry,” Midoriya says.

    “Fuck you,” Hitoshi chokes out.

     

    (When Shinsou goes grocery shopping a few weeks after transferring to Class 2A, Midoriya tags along. Because he is, for some reason, determined to be Shinsou’s friend.

    Shinsou remains cold and withdrawn in the face of Midoriya’s friendliness—until they’re kidnapped by a woman with a brainwashing quirk who believes Shinsou doesn’t belong in the hero course.)

    Summary

    Katsuki's first word that he ever says, before Mama and Daddy and die, is Deku.

    "Where did you see Deku, honey?" Mitsuki asks, looking at the picture he drew. She can't tell much from the scribbles, but the green hair is apparent. As far as she remembers, none of Katsuki's friends have green hair. "One of your cartoons?"

    "He's not fake," Katsuki scowls. "He's real."

    "Is he from the playground, or from school?"

    "No." But when pressed for more information, Katsuki only grows angrier. An imaginary friend, Mitsuki figures, and drops it at that. When he grows older and forgets about Deku, maybe she'll get a straight answer out of him.

    Except that never happens. Katsuki never forgets Deku, and he never stops being real to him, because he has memories of him. Memories that don't match up with his current life.
