Summary
“Yeesh! You’re tiny, aren’t you? I mean, that makes sense, I guess, but still. You’re a shrimp,” is the first thing out of her mouth. Silco blinks up at her where she perches on the rust-eaten roof, pointy elbows resting on those striped pants.
She's not wrong, he doesn’t think his head would reach her ribs, but being insulted by a glowing-eyed thing with impractically long hair feels unfair.

Summary
"Sometimes," Deku says, eyebrows a little scrunched up, "I think it would be easy to drift away into the night. I don't know if I would fall into the sky, or just walk into the ocean and not come back. But it's all so large, and this body is so small. The apartment is even smaller. I could just go, and go, and go."
Katsuki watches his face, unblinking. In dim lighting, Deku's irises always went indistinct, leaving his big eyes with big dark centers like some fucked-up species of cave fish searching for the smallest specks of light.

Summary
The feather taps once against his skin. Yes.
Dabi's never had someone who answers. Never had someone who listens, who provides, who kills without being asked and leaves the proof like a love letter.
He doesn't know who's watching. Doesn't know why. (Scarred. Broken. Worthless. Why would anyone choose him?)
He knows the feathers press close in his pocket. He knows the gifts keep coming. He knows that when he's hurt, someone bleeds for it.
It's not healthy. It's not sane.
It's the only love that's ever chosen him first.
-
OR: Five years of courtship through stalking, murder, and feathers. Dabi's pretty sure this isn't how relationships work. (He's also pretty sure he doesn't care.)

Summary
UA has a rule—no quirkless students. It was added years ago, after much hemming and hawing about safety concerns and lessening blame in the inevitable circumstance of death. There's no real reason to remove it, not as the percentage of quirkless people plummets further and further.
Of course, this rule doesn't actually matter to Izuku, because he's got an analysis quirk.
As far as anyone knows.
The Plan is simple: have a quirk, become a hero, and avoid anyone who could disprove those first two things.
In hindsight, UA isn't a great choice. And that's before the villains.

undo, underdog by Raayide
oh my god, this fic. i cannot recommend it enough. it’s such an incredibly good interpretation of quirklessness, the best “izuku fakes a quirk” scenario i’ve ever found, and extremely well written. izuku’s dilemma here hurts. so happy it’s been updating, and it just keeps getting better. :) definitely one of my favorites.

one of the rare fics that made me cry. doesn’t happen often, and is always cathartic when it does.

Summary
"It really doesn't have anything to do with you," Hawks tries to explain, which obviously backfires.
"The fuck it doesn't!" Dabi lunges forward, grabs the collar of Hawks' compression shirt and yanks Hawks up to growl in his face. "You murder someone for me, you do something that could get you killed, for me, and it doesn't have anything to do with me?"
"Okay," admits Hawks, "When you put it like that—"
Hawks make a series of regrettable decisions.

post-mortem conversations by jihnari
this is what you get when you take two people violently unfamiliar with emotional vulnerability, shake them up, and force them to confront their current situation and how it’s diverging from the path they’ve spent years assuming they were stuck on. love it

“well,” the guidance counsellor says, “i mean, government employees don’t normally disclose their quirk status. it could pose a security risk. so if you wanted to go into civil service…”

little fires all the time by okayantigone
hoo boy. i really like this series. the premise of hpsc president izuku sounds like it should be crack but it’s very easy to be drawn into the story here. izuku’s dissatisfaction with his life and his cognitive dissonance + refusal to accept the extent of his own abilities are palpable.
