Summary
You find yourself in a body that’s not yours, living a life that isn’t yours, surrounded by people who only love who you were supposed to be.
You look at Todoroki Shouto wearing the face of someone he used to know. He looks back.
OR: I isaki/body swap you, the reader, with an OC that has existing relationships with the canon characters, and oh boy, isn’t that a fun little mess.
This was originally a one-shot, but a part 2 has been added as a second chapter. The first chapter (10,698 words) can still be read independently. Tags have been updated as of 1/23/2026.

Summary
You try to skip your friend group's mandatory monthly movie night, and this results in something unexpected and complicating. Something that shakes the foundation on which your deep-rooted feelings have built themselves. For the longest time, you'd been convinced you knew what love was. The realization that you've been wrong hits molasses-slow and just as sweet.
(You're in love with Kirishima, but when he starts dating Mina, your long-time enemy decides to comfort you in the only way he knows how.)

What They Made Of Me; A Villain Izuku Midoriya by AlwaysDreaming13

Summary
Izuku Midoriya inherits One For All… and is kidnapped before he can even use it. The League of Villains mistake him for quirkless, break him down, and train him into their perfect weapon. Praise feels like love, obedience feels like survival — until Katsuki Bakugou tears the world apart to bring him home.
A dark, unhinged Bakudeku fic with twisted found family, moral grayness but very dark gray, and, despite it all, a happy ending.
This is DARK, please be advised.
If you are looking for a good fluff fic, I would recommend “I am worth more than my quirk” or “it’s strange how I’ve always loved you” they are both on my page and both primarily fluff with a touch of angst but only for the plot.Bookmarked by brainXdead
