Summary
Midoriya Izuku has always been written off as weird. As if it's not bad enough to be the quirkless weakling, he has to be the weird quirkless weakling on top of it.
But truthfully, the "weird" part is the only part that's accurate. He's determined not to be a weakling, and in spite of what it says on paper, he's not actually quirkless. Even before meeting All-Might and taking on the power of One For All, Izuku isn't quirkless.
Not that anyone would believe it if he told them.
(This story now has a TV Tropes page!)

Summary
On Billy's quest to cure his rapidly aging body with the power of Planet Aquitar's fountain of youth, he is forced to come to terms with the hard truths he's kept buried all these years. As a ranger he has had to face issues both internal and external but now he's on an alien planet with no morpher, none of his close friends, and someone who is little more than a stranger and seems to be holding just as many secrets.
----
This fic is designed to give a better in-universe reason for why Billy left in the middle of Zeo while still fitting in canon. Besides Billy lying in his farewell message(covered in Chapter 1) everything else is meant to not conflict with canon.

Summary
Midoriya Izuku è sempre stato considerato strano. Come se non fosse abbastanza essere un debole quirkless, doveva pure essere debole, quirkless, e pure strano.
Ma in realtà, la parte "strano" è l'unica veritiera. È determinato a non essere un debole e, a dispetto di quello che è scritto sulla carta, non è veramente quirkless. Anche prima di incontrare All-Might ed ereditare il potere dello One For All, Izuku non è quirkless.
Anche se nessuno gli avrebbe creduto se lo avesse detto. -

Summary
Saint Rockwell's School And Home For Boys. Highly regarded, respected, and priced higher than any private school imaginable. This school specializes in behavioral counseling and creating an environment conducive to the growth and safety of each individual student... And Jack Spicer is absolutely NOT going to be one of those students. Running away from home instead feels a little like a right of passage, just a really horrible right of passage when you've got nowhere to go. It's hard to say whether or not any of his interpersonal relationships are salvageable at this point, but to do that he's really gotta figure out this whole "being good" thing.

Percy is a new student at Sweet Jazz City High who catches the attention of Zora Salazar, the local self proclaimed “All-knowing” rebel cowgirl while making friends with everyone’s favourite Gerbil Rat Man, who in this AU is eighteen.

Romantic or platonic?That is the first question two people ask themselves when they come into physical contact and their fate is decided.
Are they romantic soulmates or platonic soulmates...well, that is up to the two parties in question to figure out.
For the two beloved heroes, however, it doesn’t take them a millisecond to see what category they fall under.

Summary
Midoriya Izuku a toujours été considéré bizarre. Comme si ce n’était pas assez d’être le gringalet sans-alter, il se devait évidemment d'être l'étrange gringalet sans-alter.
Mais pour être franc, la seule partie correcte le concernant est la partie "étrange". Il est déterminé à ne pas être faible, et malgré ce que ses papiers indiquent, il n’est pas en réalité sans-alter. Même avant de rencontrer All-Might et d’obtenir le pouvoir du One For All, Izuku n’était pas sans-alter.
Non pas que quiconque le croirait s’il leur disait.

Summary
The knife pushes thin along Dick’s carotid artery, cupping the indent between neck and jawline—forcing him to angle his chin. The metal is warm, pulled with execution speed from under Damian’s pillow.
“Okay,” Dick says quietly, tracking the intricacies of his own heartbeat—counting the space between breaths. “Guess I did need a shave.”
(With faltering steps, Dick and Damian become Batman and Robin.)

Summary
The Avengers is the most popular game at Litwak's Arcade in almost a decade, so popular that the manufacturer created a sequel titled The Avengers: Civil War.
The sequel ends with Steve Rogers and the rest of the Avengers picking up the pieces, leaving them no choice but to move on.
While Iron Man was left as nothing short of a traitor for turning on his former comrades, alone in his office as he received the news that Director Fury has taken him off of The Avengers Initiative.
-
For the past few years, this has been Tony Stark's reality: playing the role of a hero-turned-villain in an arcade game. Once upon a time, he was praised and cheered but now there are more curses and sounds of disgust than ever before.And honestly, he's getting pretty sick of it.

Summary
Мидорию Изуку всегда воспринимали, как не от мира сего. Мало того, что он был беспричудным слабаком, так он еще и был странным беспричудным слабаком.
Но его странность и была истинной причудой. Он полон решимости стать сильнее и пробить устоявшиеся границы, но, вопреки написанному на бумагах, он не был беспричудным. Даже до встречи со Всемогущим и поглощения силы Одного За Всех, у Изуку всегда имелся свой дар.
И даже если он кому-то расскажет про него, ему никто не поверит.

Bookmarker's Notes
If there is there a category for platonic slow burn, this probably qualifies. Siblings to enemies to dysfunctional co-workers to friends.
Side note: antagonists being unhinged is a thing this author does. It’s kept in line w the rating, but some readers might want to avoid that.
