    Summary

    "A rude awakening would be a gentle way to describe what Izuku was faced with upon opening his eyes.
    With a kick drum in his head, a sticky film covering his skin, and a dull powerful pain in his gut, he felt as though he was ready to keel over and die not even three seconds after he half opened his foggy eyes.
    .
    .
    .
    'Oh.' He thought, befuddled. 'I’m in a dumpster.'"

    When Izuku wakes up mysteriously in a dumpster after walking home one day, his whole world changes right under his feet. Follow him as he claws and fights his way back to the light of his lost life with the help of a mysterious power awakening within him. Can he truly be a hero?
    .

    Summary

    As he falls, he lets himself think about it. He lets himself think that if he wakes up, if things go back again, it means that he does have a quirk. It means he really can take a swan dive off a roof and hope for better luck in his next life. It means that all along, he’s been useless and worthless because he hasn’t died yet.

    He hits the ground.

    And then he opens his eyes.

    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

    "Even if I don't have a quirk, can I bee a hero?"

    Silence...

    "Without a quirk?" ... "If you want to help others, then you could also become a police officer, or a nurse." And he may have been right, maybe he couldn't be a hero without a quirk, but that entirely depends on your definition of a hero.

    Is it the legal definition? A person employed under agencies to deal with villains? Or is it the noun? A person who is admired or idealized for courage, outstanding achievements, or noble qualities?

    The media eats the Vigilante Valor's story up. His name literally meant brave, and he showed that bravery. He even recorded it and posted it online, the crazy bastard. Obviously, the media loves a young bad boy with a good heart and a mysterious identity, and it doesn't take long for him to become internet-famous.

    Summary

    Everyone knows about the cliche love stories with the school nerd and jock.
    He’s a cheeky asshole who can’t seem to keep it in his pants. She’s the straight-A bookworm whose only goal is to pass chemistry.

    He takes off her glasses to reveal her “true beauty.” She falls in love with his supposed sensitive side.

    But, this one in particular doesn’t quite follow the same boring formula.
    He’s the star hockey player forced to take an art course. He’s the stubborn art major who just wants one stress-free year.

    And it’s gonna take a lot more than the glasses move and some smooth talking for either of them in this story to budge.
