I’ll Wait for This by ParsnipsAndSocks

Summary
(Currently under reconstruction)
Most of the time, bad things begin as good. That’s what sets apart “terrible” and “distasteful”: their origins. What worth is a nightmare that begins in blood? A tale that introduces a tragedy and decides that nothing will get better? They’re exceptions.
Izuku Midoryia, the child without a quirk in a world full of them, has always been an exception. But he has always been one to defy expectations. He decides to become a symbol of exceptions instead of truths.
In the process of merging stories, sorry!

Summary
“You’re not interrogating me,” they say, accuse, quietly. “Or dragging me to a cell.”
Their voice is so— young, making how hoarse and scraped it sounds impossibly worse. He manages to shove his knee-jerk reaction back. To all the world, Aizawa Shouta is not even slightly fazed by the knowledge that this wanted vigilante is a child.
Internally, he’s groaning and nursing a migraine. At best, they’re halfway through their first year and puberty is strictly avoiding them.
“There’s no point in that,” he replies instead of voicing any of that. “You’d just escape. So take a bowl.”
It’s not enough. He can see it in their flat stare, the clenched hands at their sides, how tension is strung along their spine like it’s about to snap. They study each other openly, neither giving in to the other.
Shouta idly wonders what he’s being appraised for.
————
Midoryia Izuku, otherwise known as the infamous vigilante Rook, has been under All For One’s thumb since he was ten. He was young and stupid, and now he’s desperate.
After years of hurt and having multiple quirks forced on him, he finds Eraserhead. The damn hero just won’t give up on him, even after he sets a few warning fires.

Summary
“Long black hair comes into view past the porch, a strip of pale skin and a glowing gaze above white fabric. In slow, careful movements, the shadow— not the handler, and Hitoshi isn’t sure if he should be relieved or horrified— lowers himself until his knees are bent. The man doesn’t react other than raising his hands in front of him, again in that almost bored, nearly indifferent, way. A peaceful gesture. Or a patronizing one, depending on how Hitoshi takes it.
He bares his teeth while deciding.”
Shinsou Hitoshi and Midoryia Izuku, long stripped of their names and individuality, have been brought up as the AntiHero Duo by the Hero Commission since they were toddlers; made to be the opposites to their predecessor, Hawks, in every sense. With powerful “villainous” quirks and little family to miss them, they were perfect candidates.
Until they escape the same night the seemingly abandoned compound is infiltrated by heroes, of course. Until an underground hero in the raid decides to take them home with him and his husband to heal.

Currently on Chapter 18 - 9/10 writing is a little stale but good
realistic drama realistic drama realistic drama realistic dr
*cough* anyway there are multiple threads of plot going on at any given time, which I like. It keeps your interest despite not having many eloquent descriptions or particularly captivating imagery.
I’d suggest it if Dadzawa isn’t really your vibe/you don’t necessarily need it in a fic & you like Quirkless!Izuku developing a spine but not in a stupid crack way. Keeps him traumatized but lets him act like a normal dude, which is always good to read.

Currently on Chap 16 - 8/10
The plot is immaculate, and that’s all I have to say on the matter. Bakugo is toxic to Midoryia, and Midoryia and Shinsou are besties. Midoryia discovers romantic feelings for Shinsou while slowly realizing how toxic Bakugo is, and it’s fucking amazing.
It’s possible that this may not update again, however. Hopefully it will, but it’s a possibility.

Summary
“I think there’s a reason they placed it in here, Sho.” Z’ashi whispered back. “We have nothing to offer them by keeping us, and the only reason they haven’t thrown us out of the airlock is because we're live meat. We’re the meal, aren’t we?”
“We don’t know that.” Shota’s voice could cut steel. “From what they saw, the Terran’s didn’t eat the remains of the captured prisoners. They had developed living spaces and were a tier 4 society. They may not condone the consumption of higher life forms.”
“When you’re as hungry as I am, my love, everything becomes a lower life form.”
Or, my spin on the mha human's are space orcs trope. How much crazier would it be if humans had quirks?
Title inspired by The Amazing Devil's 'The Old Witch Sleep and the Good Man Grace.'

Currently on Chap 7 ; solid 7/10
I’m obsessed with the aliens concept right now. The writing/grammar itself is a lil iffy but honestly the plot makes up for it. The way Izuku learns the language is interesting, and how humans are just completely unaffected by anything is funny to read.
Looking forward to how the plot progresses and if/how the rest of 1A will be linked in!
