Summary
“Taking care of somebody else made me feel good. Like discovering you’re more than you thought you were. More even than you hoped to be.” - Bette Greene
In another world, Chisaki Kai is a ruthless, cruel man who stops at nothing to rid the world of quirks. In this one, however, he draws lines: one being Eri. He cares for her, treats her like his own daughter. And for his precious daughter, he needs somebody to help care for her, somebody who isn’t one of the Eight Bullets or a member of the Yakuza.
Enter one Midoriya Izuku: quirkless, protective, and the perfect candidate to be her babysitter. Now if only Chisaki could just stop worrying about the boy, too, that would be great. (No, Chronostasis, he does not have ‘paternal instincts,’ thank you very much!)
Or: Midoriya Izuku (accidentally) turns the Yakuza into the
goodmorally grey guys.Series

Summary
Izuku shifted to go in the third window instead of the second - he could drop down one more floor once the hero outside was gone. He used his knife to quickly flip open the lock and slipped inside, shutting the window behind him just in time to see the hero round the corner.
He let out a sigh of relief and turned around, only to freeze at the sight of two pro-heroes, someone who was probably a hero-in-training, and a little girl in a hospital bed all staring at him.
“What, exactly, do you think you’re doing?” Eraserhead asked. Casting his gaze quickly to the side, Izuku saw a dark grey owl spirit with glowing red eyes looming over the hero's shoulder. The sharp snap of a beak from the blue, glowing heron spirit in the corner - an aosagibi clearly belonging to the other hero, Present Mic - punctuated his words.

Summary
“I won’t say this again; put the blonde bastard back where you found him, and find another kid to convert to your cause.”
Shigaraki grabbed him by the front of his suit jacket, pulling him in close with only one finger raised off the cloth in his hand.
“I want this one, and I get what I want-”
“PIZZA DELIVERY!”
Every head in the bar turned at the sound of a knock on the door and a sudden announcement of pizza. Izuku groaned. Fuck. The police were here. Great.
“Did you seriously not check him for trackers or a phone?!” Izuku shoved Shigaraki away. The villain stumbled back as the room exploded.

OR: Izuku is an underground healer, and he's pretty satisfied where he is. But of course, UA and Aizawa have to go shove their foot into his carefully crafted identity and fix his trauma.

Neither here nor there by Im_trash_at_everything

Summary
Izuku could have been a hero. But he isn’t. Instead he’s tired, cranky, and just trying to get through work. It would help if all these people stopped being so weird, nearly dying all the time. He just wants to earn his keep and get a good nights sleep.
In one instance Izuku is a hero- that’s what people keep saying. But that’s too strong a word. Too strong a feeling. Izuku isn’t a hero and he never will be. He doesn’t want to be one anymore either. A lifetime where he’s a hero doesn’t exist (even when it does). But that’s neither here nor there, nobody’s business.
Or:
Midoriya doesn’t want to be a hero, despite the fact he keeps accidentally saving people.Bookmarked by PrincessMacaroni

Being Realistic Means To Adapt by RarepairKai22

Summary
Adapting is, perhaps, one of the most difficult things a person could ever do.
Humans are pattern-seeking creatures, after all. Humans rely on what they know to make sense of a chaotic, uncertain world, oftentimes doubling down on what has served them in order to grasp at whatever control they can get in a world so out of their control.
If they could, most humans would refuse to adapt at all.
However, Midoriya Izuku has no choice but to adapt when All Might tells him to be “realistic”.
No doubt, it is hard. But with some overdue encouragement and support from his mother, Izuku discovers a door previously unknown to him, one that, with some adapting, opens to a possibility that enables him to fulfil his lifelong dream, albeit in a different form.
And, unwittingly, starting a chain reaction that would have massive repercussions for all of society.
