Son of the Sea, Child of Sorrow by little_bird_broken_wing
Fandoms: Percy Jackson and the Olympians - Rick Riordan, Percy Jackson and the Olympians (TV 2023)
18 Dec 2025

Summary
Percy Jackson was 8 years old when his mother married a monster. He learned very quickly that while monsters are real, heroes are not, and no one was coming to save him.
Then, one night, the world cracked open. A storm, a monster, a mother’s last desperate act to save her son—and suddenly, Percy was running toward a truth he was never meant to know. The stories were real. The gods were watching. And he was part of a world where fate is written in blood and monsters do not hide behind locked doors.
But even as he faced creatures from myth, even as he fought for his life, the worst monsters were the ones he couldn't outrun. The ones that lived in his skin, in his memories, in the hollow ache where something like hope used to be.
With dangerous new enemies and unexpected allies, Percy was forced to face the truth—not just about who he was, but about the battles he’d been fighting all along.
Because some monsters wear human faces. Some wounds don’t heal. And some destinies can’t be escaped.
(Or: What if Gabe was a whole lot worse than he was in the books/ shows? How would that affect Percy’s journey to becoming a hero?)

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.

Summary
"'A life for a life,' it had drawled happily. 'But with a twist! Edward, I want to believe you're not so naive to think that reality revolves only around your singular, dispensable timeline, yes?'"
--
The Law of Equivalent Exchange is bullshit. That's what Edward Elric decides after he wakes up in a dumpster after he makes a risky deal with Truth. Aizawa Shota's list of problem children just keeps getting longer by the second, and Japan probably isn't ready for the uncontrollable hurricane of destruction that is the Fullmetal Alchemist.
--
FMA x BNHA crossover fic because I'm a little bit funky and cringe! Canon divergence where Ed gives up his life to bring Al back, but it doesn't go quite as planned.

Summary
Loki thought he'd taken his children somewhere safe. Somewhere far from Asgard, from the wretches that got them on him. Somewhere they could simply live in peace. All he wanted was to raise his children, to be a good mother to them and keep them safe. He thought he finally had the chance.
He thought wrong.

Wanted: Fake Boyfriend for Family Dinner. Piss off my parents and get a free, home cooked meal! by ChaoticFairy (Amanda908565)
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia (Anime & Manga)
03 Mar 2026

Summary
Izuku Midoriya didn't mean to get married. He just wanted to piss off his mom.
A fake Craigslist ad for a boyfriend seemed like the perfect way to ruin another uncomfortable dinner. He expected trolls, maybe a scam or two. Not… whatever this was.
It was supposed to be a joke.
It’s getting harder to remember that.
(He didn't think either of them wanted to.)"I think I'm in love. Marry me."
-
"Come on, Midoriya, think about it. Showing up to the family dinner with a surprise husband in tow? Someone they've never met – never even heard about? Who's…" he cleared his throat, glancing away for a moment with pursed lips, "at least twice your age?"
Izuku considered it. He hated that he was considering it.

The Golden Roach by RayRox360
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia (Anime & Manga)
30 Nov 2024
Tags
Summary
The world will praise your differences. As long as those differences make you stronger. Izuku has always been different. And it has always led to hatred and spit and turmoil. Because being quirkless means you are weak. It means you are wrong and flawed and destined to die out. A roach refusing to go extinct, living in the cracks, in the dark, polluting the world with a putrid dust.
Izuku is the 10%. The few with no place. No power. No voice. And he is determined to change that. Not just for him, but for everyone. Roaches and all.
Meanwhile, Eraserhead might have bitten off a bit more than he could chew, going after this new vigilante who, for some reason, is completely immune to his quirk, smarter than the Devil, and always wants to talk about his Pro Hero trading card collection.
But then again… maybe his class could use one more chair?
Maybe the roaches have something to say.

Hounds of War by Razi_Hikari

Summary
In a world where heroes are celebrated for their image as much as their actions. Izuku Midoriya, once a bright-eyed teen dreaming of saving lives, is drawn into a far grittier conflict. When the Central Asian Alliance calls for international volunteers to fight in their brutal war against the Renewed Soviet Republic, he answers, hoping to become a real hero.
But what he finds is not glory. It’s war. A frozen battlefield of collapsing empires, weaponized quirks, and moral ambiguity. In this shattered world, survival matters more than symbols, and justice often comes at the barrel of a gun. As ideals fracture under fire, Izuku must decide what kind of hero he truly wants to be… or whether heroism even exists here at all.

Summary
“Slap a bandage on him and let’s go,” Dynamight snarls, already half-turned toward the mouth of the alley. “We don’t have time for dead weight.”
To be fair, they are in the middle of a rapidly worsening disaster zone.
And yet …
Shōta watches Red Riot sloppily press a gauze pad against Deku’s stomach and then sprint off after the others with a sour taste in his mouth and anger broiling low and hot in his gut.
Hizashi, Shōta can’t help but think, would never.

Summary
He couldn’t breathe. He couldn’t breathe— Izuku’s heart twisted with animalistic terror. His insides were burning, twisting, tearing. He couldn’t breathe, he was going to die—
And then— Sweet, blessed air. A gasp, then coughing. Izuku couldn't breathe well, but he could breathe. He coughed, coughed and coughed until, finally, he hacked up a glob of blood and spittle into the dirt. But… That wasn’t all Izuku coughed up…
Laying there in the dirt, shiny with spit and blood, was a flower petal.
A.K.A. Izuku + Hanahaki = tastey tastey angst

Summary
A chance encounter with hero-turned-villain Eraserhead sends Izuku down a research rabbit hole that leaves him with more questions than answers. In the pursuit of understanding, Izuku finds himself making friends with two damaged, lonely men, re-examining his own relationship with right and wrong, and finding a way to strike a balance between his heart and his head.
Sometimes doing good requires doing evil, and maybe those concepts mean less than he’d always believed.

Summary
Six years in the arena. Six years fighting to the death for the amusement of monsters, people who saw the quirkless as subhuman. Disposable. Killing is all Izuku knows, and he'll keep doing it until he's lucky enough to lose.
Death is the only way out.
Except rescue finally comes long after he's given up hope. He finds himself in the care of two heroes who aren't disgusted by him, aren't afraid of him, even though they know exactly what he is.
Izuku's too broken to go back to the life he lost, but he likes the one he's found.
And when he's given the opportunity to make sure what happened to him never happens to anyone else?
He takes it.

Summary
Shouta and Izuku expect to die, willing to buy a future with their lives so others might have a chance. Instead, they find themselves in a world where the war never happened. They're left struggling to adapt to peace and safety in a society both similar to, and very different from the one they remember.
Hizashi makes himself responsible for two traumatized men—one wearing the face of a long gone friend—to help ease their transition into a world they aren't equipped to understand. It's not an easy thing, when they don't smell the way they should, or act like he expects. But he's determined to give them a place to heal, and the pack they don't know they need.
Or:
A story about finding home, long after you thought there was no home left to find.

Izuku frowned. “What do you mean?”
“I don’t know you.” Aizawa said bluntly. “You said you were my student, once, wherever you came from – that you were a part of my current class, but I’d never seen you before you showed up at the USJ.”
In which after a fight, Izuku found himself in a world much like his own, but with one key difference.

Summary
Midoriya Izuku, Shinsou Hitoshi, and Todoroki Shouto are three kids who want nothing more than to be heroes.
They also share a soulmate bond, and with it, each other’s pain. Fighting through abuse to become something more than what they are, the three of them learn to turn something that threatened to consume them into something beautiful, something they can use to save others.
~
(The three of them would keep talking that night, about quirks, or the lack thereof for one of them, and heroes, and how some of them are just monsters putting on a show for the public. The next day they would get up, and Hitoshi would feel the burn of Endeavor’s fire and Bakugou’s explosion and instead of shouldering through with a blank face and indifferent mask, he’d press gentle fingertips to the phantom wounds and push down until the faintest pressure slipped through the bond.Hitoshi and his soulmates still burned, but it didn’t seem so bad when they were burning together.)
