Summary
Izuku learned at a very young age that love is conditional. Love is a reward for following the rules, love is reserved for those who are worthy of it, for those who are loveable.
Izuku was not loveable, well at least not according to anyone he'd ever met.
All he ever wanted to do was help people, to be someone worthy of loving but at 12 years old he's left with nothing and no one. Living on the streets he has to make his own way in life and maybe help some of the people in this community he's found himself in.
Follow his journey as Izuku skirts the line of the law saving people and maybe even finding someone who thinks he's worth loving. -

Summary
Summary:
“Hey!” Izuku calls, but the man doesn’t turn around. Annoyed, Izuku reaches the man, spinning him around by the shoulder. “What happened? Why aren't you with your team?” He asks, looking the man up and down. He seems fine. The man scowls in confusion, red eyes glaring.
“Hah? The fuck you talking about,” he says, using his height to lean over Izuku. But this is all a terrible mistake on his part. Izuku is in disaster management mode, and he will take no bullshit.
“Do not speak to me like that,” he says, voice deep and low. The man flinches back in shock, but Izuku is already moving on. “Management radioing, who’s in need of assistance? Over and out.”
If this man has time to come all the way to the front and be an ass, then he has the free time to help out with any team in need, Izuku angrily reasons.
Or, Izuku is a disaster management specialist and one day accidentally mistakes Pro-Hero Ground Zero for one of his team members, thus sparking their friendship.
Please check out the original and leave Kudos!

Summary
After an accident while carrying her home, Izuku ends up falling asleep in the same bed as Mei, and it leads to the best sleep of both their lives. Once they see the upsides of this situation, they start making it a nightly occurrence.
Will they be able to fight the romantic and sexual undertones of this arrangement, or will they both continue to be denser than a brick?

Summary
Izuku Midoriya never got the chance to save Bakugo from the sludge villain and impress All Might. With his dream crushed, Izuku becomes bitter and angry. It also doesn't help that he faces discrimination at every turn.
All he ever wanted was to be appreciated, so when the villains are the ones to recognize his talents rather than the heroes, well, Izuku just can't resist. He might as well help those who actually want him around.
Mistakes were made, and now society must face a villain of their own making: Mastermind.Chapter 1: Temptation

Summary
Izuku was ecstatic when he learned that he made it into UA, but when his teacher decided to announce THAT in class, things quickly seemed to be going downhill. Kac-Bakugou decided to follow him when he left the school and in the panic, Izuku may have activated his quirk...
In other words, I like Deku from Clouds story, and I also like Bakugou being told what he's doing wrong and I decided to mix these together!
