Summary
Possessed by a mixture of devastation, existing mental health issues, and desperate stress, Izuku makes a terrible mistake. He survived his suicide attempt, and he's genuinely glad for the second chance, but sometimes living is harder than letting go. As for what gave him the second chance... well, he's not entirely sure what to think of that either. With new hope and shattered world views, he continues down the path he originally chose, though this time without the wide-eyed wonder he once held for the world. He enters UA to become a hero, because if he can't believe in the ones he used to love, he can at least make himself into the hero he needs.

Summary
Of all the quirks in existence, it HAD to be the one with the most awkward activation method ever: kissing. But Izuku is nothing but determined, and even with a quirk that lands him into more embarrassing instances than necessary, he's still going to be a hero anyways.
AKA, Izuku still faces Quirkless discrimination growing up, terrifies U.A. with his notebooks, reluctantly seduces his classmates, makes everyone whipped, and gets spiritually adopted by Nemuri while Nezu kicks back and relaxes with a cup of Darjeeling as the chaos unfolds.
Oh. And he has villains obsessing after him too. Just what has his life succumbed to?!

Summary
Midoriya Izuku was alive before the birth of quirks. Stuck in a testing facility by a sadistic A.I., Glados, he is forced to go through test after test in the Aperture Science chambers forever.
That is, until a rescue operation takes place to infiltrate the building, and now Midoriya must re-enter a society he didn't belong to with changes to his body he never wanted.
Or
Midoriya is a test subject in the years after Portal 2, where he undergoes human experimentation at the hands of Glados.
You don't need to have played/watched Portal to understand this, almost all Portal lore is explained.

Summary
Midoriya Izuku is born with eyes that see past what normal people can.
He can see spirits.
At first, no one believes him, but he manages to show his friends for a few moments before passing out and being rushed to the hospital for quirk overuse.
Now, he's an outcast at school, the demon boy who talks to spirits and is friends with demons. It seems like only he can see them, interact with them, and help them, but Izuku wants nothing more than to be a hero, and he's going to do whatever it takes to get there.

Tsune (I'm Always Here For You) by Otaku6337

Summary
I'm always here for you, even if nobody is here for me.Midoriya Izuku is a normal boy. He has a Quirk and everything! But a seemingly weak Quirk isn't enough. Being kind isn't enough. And so Izuku suffers, even as he refuses to let go of his goals. He will be a hero, no matter what it takes, because he can be. Despite all the voices telling him he can't, he can. Izuku just has to prove it.
"Midoriya Izuku, four years old and already an anxious child, is waiting for his Quirk to come in. He’s been waiting for eight days, four hours and… thirty seven minutes. -- And then it came. It didn’t arrive in a flurry of sparks that stained the air with a sweet smell like Kaachan’s, or tear through a worksheet halfway through class like Shibata’s extendable fingers, or mean that he comes into school one day with big dragon wings like Tsubasa. Instead, Izuku wakes up on the twelfth day, and he isn’t human. "
TLDR - Izuku has a kitsune Quirk and is determined to become an underground hero - he will makes lots of friends and a whole Yamazawa family along the way, although things are never quite easy.Series
