    Summary

    💖 What if Izuku Midoriya had a secret love story the world never remembered?

    Why didn't Izuku pursue any girls throughout his time at UA? Why did it take him years to reconnect with Uraraka?

    Because he had a girlfriend the entire time. A girlfriend with her own secret, her own mission, her own arc. Her own reasons for staying hidden.

    Aiko Takara was always there, just off-screen... supporting Izuku, cheering him on, loving him from the shadows while the spotlight stayed on everyone else.

    Reverberate follows Izuku and Aiko from middle school through UA, the vigilante arc, the war, and beyond; through love, sacrifice, and the kind of promises that echo long after they’re gone.

    🔥Every chapter includes original manga-style art!

    Summary

    Izuku Midoriya is going to be a hero, and where can he learn that better than U.A.? Sure it'll be challenging, but he has the full support of his rather... unusual family, and he'll be attending alongside his closest friends!

    And besides, All For One retired years ago and has made it quite clear he will not be returning to his life of crime so long as Izuku keeps him supplied with hugs. With the most dangerous villain ever officially dead, what's the worst that can happen?

    Summary

    Tommy has given up on the world ever treating him kindly, entering every new situation with resignation and fear. But what happens when he's taken in by the Watsons, a family that shows him there's more to life than just surviving?

    //

    "It had been his fault, time and time again, that none of his homes had worked out. Sure, he wasn’t always known for having the best attitude–he was scared of everything, and when he got defensive he talked back, zoned out, or bolted at the first sign of trouble.

    He was annoying and loud, and he’d been told it too many times to count.

    But truly, the reason most families had issues with Tommy had less to do with his personality, and more to do with his ability."

    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.
