    Summary

    Izuku doesn’t know how to trust, not really. 

    Something sharp and heavy settles in his chest when he tries, and he is so used to scraping his skin when he lands that he no longer bothers to break his fall. 

     

    or: five times aizawa catches his kid, and the one time izuku decides to stay, if only for a moment more.

    Summary

    Izuku does not recognise the boy in the mirror. The sharp lines, the scars. He cannot meet his eyes, because the child in the mirror is just another person that he has failed, and this is a mistake that he cannot run from.

     

    or: Izuku is cardboard smiles and bitter eyes, and he will not cry, not anymore.

    Summary

    A bell chimes as a battered, broken, and dirty Izuku walks in the door. He pointedly ignores shocked stares from the two customers in the aisles, observes the cashier with a phone cable in his mouth, and marches straight to the first aid section. The selection is less than ideal, but he’s made use of far less before. He mindlessly sweeps items into his arms, and waltzes up to the register.

     

     

     

     

    Izuku has no home: He finds solace in places that he will inevitably leave.

    Izuku gets injured, saved by Aizawa and crew, and goes to places his mind conjures up (plus a gas station!)

    Summary

    Even in a world where Midoriya Izuku does develop a quirk, life is not kind.

    Somehow, ineffably, he still finds his way to being a hero, even when his body fails him. Even if it's the last thing he does.

    (where quirks are not always kind, and the author ruminates on the idea that trauma can be a list of smaller things that grow into something bigger and all the more willing to swallow someone whole. But it’ll be okay, eventually, because Izuku’s got Mirio by his side, and Mirio has got him).
