Summary
In his first week at UA, support course student Midoriya Izuku is drawn into helping Hatsume Mei prepare for the Sports Festival.
This story has been described as "the most addictive fluff in existence" by a reader.
MechMaiden: there, I’m in bed. are you happy, you heartless tool of the establishment?
Izuku flushed when he saw the photo Mei had sent. It wasn’t anything inappropriate but it felt… intimate. Her golden eyes were half-lidded with exhaustion and he lamented the fact that they weren’t open a little further - it would have been a great opportunity to examine them and guess at her quirk without rudely staring. She wore a long-suffering sleepy smile and a tank top - likely the one she'd worn under her uniform all day. Her pink hair spilled haphazardly over a rumpled pillowcase and Izuku wasn’t sure whether there seemed to be more hair than he remembered or whether it was just an illusion created by her supine position. The overall effect was that Izuku forgot to breathe for a moment as he took her in.

Summary
When Rumi wakes up after the battle with the High-Ends, it’s to missing limbs, a career cut short, and no way out. She knows there’s no going back, that she can never be who she was.
At least, until she meets a quirkless (and stupidly hot) doctor named Izuku Midoriya. He helps her realize that there might be more hope than she thought.
The Pro Hero Miruko is coming back, one way or another. If she does it with a sassy and occasionally terrifying doctor by her side, well, that’s just a bonus. -

Summary
Midoriya Izuku was told he couldn't be a hero. All Might never got his name. But Midoriya left the scene knowing that, even if he couldn't be a hero, he was going to help everyone he could. How was he supposed to help people when he was the weakest person he knew? Sure, he doesn't know anything about working out, but it should be fine. No pain no gain, right?
(Within the timelines and divergent storylines, this one ran slightly too close to the truth. Midoriya Izuku was supposed to be the greatest hero of this world, and Fate wasn't going to deny this one. But breaking the rules has a tendency to spiral out of control... Ah, well, what's one more world on the scrap heap to something like Fate...?)Series

Summary
“Let’s say you’ve been asleep for a hundred years and when you wake up you’ve lost all your memories, but you defeat the big bad monster like you’ve been told to, because a girl told you to, and because you were in love with her. And after defeating the big bad monster she comes back, only she’s not the person she was a hundred years ago. And you’re not the person you were a hundred years ago. And yet every time you look at her, your chest hurts so bad you think you might be dying.”
He looks up from his breadstick. “Am I dying?”
“No,” Beedle says. “I think you’re stupid.”
All roads lead to Hateno.

Summary
Juxtapose. Verb, meaning: to place two things together in a contrasting manner. In this case, two points of divergence.
Izuku Midoriya, an aspiring Hero with a useless Quirk, is heartbroken when his lifelong idol tells him to reconsider his options. He doesn't know what else to do but cry in the park until a husk of a man offers him ice cream. The man, named Toshinori Yagi, tells Izuku that he might still have a chance: If he worked hard and entered Yuuei's General Education program, then he could potentially transfer into the Hero Course if he won the Sports Festival.
With a new path forward and a mentor to guide him, Izuku takes a very different road towards becoming a hero.
