    Summary

    They say that you can either let the world destroy you or destroy the world. Izuku doesn't know which category he falls into, but he does know that he won't let anyone be hurt like he was hurt if he can help it.

    With unconventional methods, a few broken bones and self-sacrificing attitude, the vigilante dubbed Carbon Cat attempts to balance crime fighting, evading arrest, living alone, and high school. He can't tell which one is the most difficult.

    OR: in which Izuku never receives One For All, becomes a vigilante and tries to keep everyone at an arms length. Doesn't mean they'll let him, though.

    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.

    Summary

    When his father and Tomura start planning the USJ attack, Izuku makes a plan of his own. It’s simple, only four steps:

    1. Steal Eraserhead’s quirk
    2. Use it to kill All for One
    3. Give Erasure back, hopefully
    4. Go to jail, probably

    He’s prepared for the plan to fail at any time, but surprisingly, it’s not until step 4 that things fall through.

    Summary

    Izuku has a “dissociation” Quirk that lets his ghost leave his body, and it’s both convenient and inconvenient at the same time. Either way, he's going to do whatever it takes to become a hero.

    Summary

    Shigaraki Tomura does not need a good reason to do what he wants. Often, the most random desires lead him to the most favorable outcome. In the game of life, it's best to leave no stone unturned, no side quest unfinished. No matter how petty the action, he'll do anything to spite All Might and hero society, even if it includes helping a kid become a hero.

    Midoriya Izuku does not see the point in living after being told by his idol to give up on his dreams. Without a quirk, there's no point in existing in a world defined by quirks. But, with a quirk—no matter how suspiciously obtained—he could do everything that was once denied to him. Even if it meant cheating, even if it meant conspiring with villains, he'd to anything to be a hero.

    OR
    Shigaraki Tomura meets Midoriya Izuku on a rooftop and hears the story of how All Might crushed his dreams. In his caprice and eagerness to prove All Might wrong in everything, he offers him a quirk upon seven conditions.
