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.

The Dark Below by DarthPeezy

Summary
Izuku must learn his place in a broken and cruel world. He must learn the cost of being a hero. He must learn the cost of changing the world to his own image. In a world divided by factions vying for control, oppressive governments, and sympathetic villains, Izuku must decide his place amongst the chess pieces. He'll have to decide what to make of the broken dreams and shattered faith of an indifferent world. He'll need the power to rise above the mire and muck of despair.
Thankfully, he was never quirkless.
Sometimes quirks hide until they are triggered. Izuku tasted death and found it lacking, every flavour bitter and lacking spice. In the moments between death and life, he gazed into the howling abyss and it followed him home. Everything he thought he knew about the world is a lie. There are monsters lurking in the dark below, always waiting and always watching.
They wait patiently, waiting for one to sit upon a throne of crystal madness and eternal suffering. They have waited for aeons and will wait until the end of eternity.
They wait for Izuku Midoriya.

Summary
"I’m only two minutes late!” Izuku protested. Had he missed the start of an important test? None of the national, standardized tests were supposed to happen this month and even being two minutes late to one of those wouldn’t elicit this sort of reaction. They were discussing their career interest forms today, but that was it. Nothing time-critical was supposed to be happening.
“Midoriya, you were reported missing a week ago. No one has seen you for eight days. The police have been combing the city for you.”
"I’m sorry. What?”
Midoriya Izuku went missing for a week and turned up in a back alleyway with skills he's never even heard of and no memory of how he came by them. He resigns himself to never learning the truth of what happened to him, but he shouldn't waste this chance should he? He could become a hero with reflexes like these.

Izuku Midoriya’s Roundabout Way of Finding Stable Parental Figures by TheLilysPad

Summary
In most universes, Hanahaki disease is solely romantic, caused by unrequited or unknown requited love. It causes flowers to bloom and makes their roots latch onto the patient's lungs.
--------------------------------
Like most other diseases, it happens in stages. First there is a scratch in the throat, similar to a common cold, then comes a distinct metal taste clinging to the taste buds. Soon, coughing begins leaving specks of blood in the crook of an elbow. Eventually, petals follow the blood, oddly perfect for something so delicate in its position. Then the roots start to dig themselves into the sides of the lungs. This causes discomfort. After this happens, patients can begin to expect full flowers to emerge while coughing and should take care to prevent this final stage. While not entirely fatal, extreme blood loss or the potential of a punctured lung causes some concern to medical professionals. Caution is advis—
--------------------
In this universe, things are different. While most cases are indeed caused by romantic feelings, platonic feelings are also feeding grounds for this disease.
Enter Izuku Midoriya.

It was supposed to be a normal day but, fate had something else in store for pro hero Eraserhead aka Shouta Aizawa.
‘Instead of a villain or an animal in distress Shouta found himself facing a tattered cardboard box that had been tossed next to an extremely smelly dumpster. The rain was making quick work of soaking the fragile material, giving him a tiny glance at the contents of the box. What he saw made his insides twist followed by a hot flash of pure unadulterated rage. A baby.’

Summary
When some ancient and unknown Homeworld technology accidentally erases their memories, the Crystal Gems assume that the amount of time they're missing is insignificant. After-all, for beings that measure their life-span in millennium, thirteen years is trivial.
Or normally it is. But it appears that these last thirteen years have been more eventful than the previous thirteen centuries combined, and it becomes clear that the Gems cannot afford to forget any of it. Now, with their leader gone, and saddled with a half-human boy who claims to be her son, they must somehow find a way to restore what they lost.

Summary
“…That gem.” Blue whispered, eyes wide.
In another world Steven had shown it in defiance as he confessed and everyone would have just passed a glance at it before wanting to know how he’d killed a Diamond. In another world Blue was distracted by her grief, her desperation for answers clouding her vision.
In this world Blue Diamond, who had sat in a room filled with bubbled Rose Quartz gems for thousands of years and stared at them until Yellow Diamond arrived to drag her away, noticed something she should have seen before. The gem was too light to be a Rose Quartz. The gem was too clear. It shined too brightly, the light catching it perfectly.
But she remembered a gem similar, a gem that haunted her memories. She saw it when she cried. She knew that gem.
“I know this gem.”

Summary
“W-Wait...Wait! You said you take a blood payment, I can do that, just wait!” Midoriya grasps his spark of inspiration and runs with it.
“And how do you plan to do that exactly?” Overhaul asks, raising a thin brow.
“I’ve heard you like to experiment, right? Developing black market drugs and stuff?” He hopes the rumours are true. “Well, you can have my son…”
There’s a beat of silence. And then another. Overhaul’s yellow eyes stare him down blankly all the while. It feels like it goes on forever until finally, with a flick of Overhaul’s wrist, Midoriya’s arms are released.
“S-So… Do we have a deal?” Midoriya squeaks, his wife’s crying face pulled flush against his bleeding neck.
“We do,” Chisaki answers easily.
