    Summary

    Gotham was built on a cave system. Batman has referenced a Bat Cave before. Tim is currently in the cave system. He is in the cave system that he entered from Drake Manor. Drake Manor is right next door to where Batman- The Bruce Wayne- lives. Holy Cavern, Batman! Tim had just accidentally wandered into the Bat Cave’s cave system.

    OR

    Tim, having found a weird hole after a storm, decides to go exploring ignoring the fact that This Is Gotham and They Probably Have Cursed Stuff Down There.

    Luckily, it was just a cave system that spans the entire Gotham underground. Unluckily, Tim is a very curious child.

    Summary

    As the door opened Tim quickly disabled another three separate electronic sensors in the doorjamb by swiping them with a device that looked a bit like a thumb drive. “Walk where I walk,” he said.

    He took a big step over the doormat, eyed the floor carefully, then took a careful skipped sidestep to another mat against the right-hand wall, where he removed his shoes.

    “What the hell?” whispered Jason, still standing in the open doorway.

    Tim pointed up. There was a net rigged up on the ceiling. “Pressure pads under the carpet.”

    “I repeat, what the hell?”

    After Tim completely derails Jason’s beatdown attempt by asking him for a hug, Jason’s first priority is to get this touch-starved kid more cuddles. Tim’s first priority is to avoid Dick’s traps.

    Jason learns a lot about his brothers and what happened while he was away, and something about himself too.

    Summary

    Tim winces, “Another critical fail. Jason, what does your human bard do?”

    Jason plays a riff, then leans forward to mirror Timmy’s posture. “Active perception check.” He tosses his solid red D-20 out onto the table, not even looking at the result.

    Finally catching onto Jason’s less than pure intentions, Tim’s smile tightens as he looks down at the die as it lands right in front of him. “That’s a natural 20.”

    Jason grins, feral. “Let’s fucking go.”

    -

    Duke wants to spend more time bonding with his family. Somehow, this leads to him playing D&D with Steph, Jason, and Tim. The chaos is unstoppable, especially once Jason gets into his role as Tom, his human Bard. This upcoming forest confrontation won't know what hit it.

    Summary


    Izuku never really meant to get into fights, or to get a name for himself in his neighbourhood, or to get pseudo-adopted by the local police precinct.

    He was only trying to protect the nice lady from next door, or save a cat from a tree, or help an old lady with her shopping, or stop those men from being mean.

    But then he catches Eraserhead's notice too. As it turns out, it's just one more person who ends up adoring him for all that he is.

    ~~~

     

    Shouta is tired and fed up and exhausted. Yes, he's fully aware that those are all technically synonyms, but using them all right now feels appropriate.

     

    Izu-kun is tiny. Cute, tiny, and he really is fucking vicious.

     

    Not only is the kid small, but he's scrawny, all elbows and freckles and bony wrists, plasters on his face to cover up some of the freckles, the knuckles on his left hand raw. His damn hoodie says 'Hero' on it, bright yellow in a shade that almost perfectly matches his own goggles, and he's panting, grinning, blood smeared on the toe of his shoes.

    Summary

    Izuku was debating the merits of seeking out the new vigilante group that was on the news when he heard the list of known members. He knew those names. Specifically, he knew those because they were assigned to six of his hoodies.

    He knew he should come clean. Maybe just stick to one costume, or stop being a vigilante altogether. Groups were treated much more seriously than lone entities, and he could get in serious trouble if they sent heroes after him expecting backup that didn’t exist.

    A week later, he had characters designed for every hoodie he owned.

     

    In which Izuku becomes a one-man organization, and everyone has to deal with the consequences.

    Summary

    Izuku's quirk is simple, it tells him exactly what he needs to do.
    It tells him to grab an umbrella and that afternoon it rains unexpectedly. It tells him to bring cash and it turns out the card reader is out of order.
    His quirk tells him to rob a bank.
    Well, why not?
    - - -
    Does the name All for One mean anything to Izuku? Nope.
    Will he tear down the empire of a powerful villain who has been terrorizing Japan for over a century anyway? Sure.

    Summary

    It is a truth mutually acknowledged by anyone who has ever had the misfortune of interacting with Sukuna or his wayward body parts that the King of Curses lived by the adage, "I'm going to cause problems on purpose."

    Which was why, one boring Tuesday, Gojo Satoru decides to fuck with the guy.

    Summary

    Izuku found Eraserhead's capture scarf in an alleyway while trying to find the man himself and decided to take it home. They say imitation is the highest form of flattery, so hopefully the hero won't be too upset if he ever finds out about it. In the meantime, Izuku might just be able to become a hero without a quirk, so he's certainly going to try.

    Summary

    Deku was always the entrepreneurial little child. He had started selling things when he was in elementary school, and never dropped the habit.

    Unsurprisingly, the teachers at UA take a little bit more notice of his habits.

    Summary

    "I can't be a hero," Izuku said firmly, subconsciously punching a purse snatcher that passed by him. "I don't have a quirk."

    All Might squinted. "Are you sure?"

    -

    Midoriya Izuku gave up his dream of becoming a hero a long time ago, and not long after, realized how corrupted society was. In a world where quirks were the basis of everything, he didn't stand a chance, instead opting to provide for his mom and live a normal life.

    Now, if only everybody would stop pestering him to be a hero!

    Or:
    Aizawa was concerned for this new Problem Child who accidentally apprehended villains
    Toshinori kept getting rejected like a school girl with a crush
    Tsukauchi wanted less paperwork
    Bakugou wanted the shitty nerd to become a hero
    And Izuku just wanted to get a job

    Shinobi seem to harbour this bizarre impression that civilians are somehow... soft.

    Sakura aims to disabuse them of this notion.

    (The one where Sakura is a farmer's daughter, and knows better than most the value of hard work and, more importantly, the importance of co-existence within an ecosystem.)

    Summary

    Now that he finally has a moment to reflect on what Todoroki told him during the Sports Festival, Izuku realizes there's only one way to take down Endeavor.

     

    “Midoriya? It’s half past four in the morning, what the hell do you want?”

    “Oh, is it really? I hadn’t noticed. Anyway, if I told you I had a way to majorly fuck up your dad in the public eye, would you be okay with it?”

    He paused in shock that Izuku had sworn. “...Yeah, sure, whatever. Go nuts.” Todoroki hung up.

    Summary

    Kaminari walks up to Todoroki in the hallway after class and says, “Dude, I need your help.”

    Todoroki checks over his shoulder, twice, to verify that Kaminari is indeed talking to him. “Why?”

    “Yesterday you asked Shinsou-kun if he was Aizawa-sensei’s son,” Kaminari says, as though that explains anything at all.

    “...yes?”

    “Make a hero conspiracy YouTube channel with me.”
