    Summary

    About a week after that, All Might asked Izuku if he was aiming for the hero course at UA. The question was so sudden that Izuku nearly dropped a microwave on his toes.

    The truth was, if All Might had asked him that a week ago, there would have only been one possible answer to that question. All Might had gone to UA, UA was the best, so Izuku was going to go there too, if he could. But things were a little different, now that he was going to receive All Might’s Quirk.

    “No,” he said, decisively.

    All Might looked caught off guard, which was a very rare expression on him. “No?” he echoed, like he couldn’t believe it.

    A laugh bubbled out of Izuku’s throat. He honestly couldn’t believe it either. “No,” he repeated.

    ___

    Or, All Might tells Izuku about All for One before he gives him One for All, and everything changes.

    Summary

    Being told by his idol that he can be a hero was the greatest thing that had ever happened in Midoriya Izuku’s life. In fact, it was so incredible and amazing that it compelled him to do something that he had been taught from an early age to NEVER do. He asked his teacher a question.

    Or: Izuku decides to ask Toshinori to teach him how to use One For All while he’s cleaning up the beach. This prompts Toshinori to realize that he actually can’t really do that. So he reluctantly calls Gran Torino and gets him to help train and supervise Izuku’s ten month American Dream Plan for entering UA.

    Summary

    The second lieutenant of the Shie Hassaikai yakuza group is known to others only as 'the Caretaker.' A rather enigmatic and highly intelligent member of the family, not much is known about him outside of a select circle of trusted friends and, of course, the Shie Hassaikai itself. But to those who know him, the Caretaker is simply this: a young man who cares for his family more than anything else.

    Because the Caretaker is one Midoriya Izuku, and he did not start out that way... at first, he was just a babysitter.

    --------------------

    A series revolving around an AU I started in my fic, 'more than you hoped to be.' Originally only intended to be one fic, but it somehow sprung up into two! I might also include some other supplementary bits in this series as well, like scrapped scenes or character profiles for some of the characters in the fics, if people are interested in that sort of thing.

    Summary

    Annabeth famously ran away from home when she was seven.

    The lesser known story is what prompted her leave: one of her brothers dying (and her dad lying), and the other faking his death (and her dad lying).

    For years, she swore she’d never go crawling back.

    It was only after the wars were over, and with Percy by her side, that Annabeth was ready to see her mortal family again—the old, the new, and the undead—even if returning to Wayne Manor didn’t mean going home anymore.

    OR

    Heroes don’t get happy endings. But damn if that will stop Annabeth from weaving her own. [Edit: 8/2/25]

    Summary

    After his mother’s death, Percy is forced to move in with his wealthy uncle in Gotham. Luckily for him, he only has to survive one year under the same roof before he can move out and disappear again.

    The Waynes, however, are completely overwhelmed. Why can’t they seem to handle their newest family member—one who’s clearly a traumatized cult member? And more confusing still: why does Percy seem to know so many people, both in and out of Gotham?
