    Summary

    Izuku Midoriya had a sizeable following online. Not as a hero, but as a conspiracy debunker. He built his following using facts and his obscene amount of free time as a kid without friends.

    Shouto Todoroki wondered if this is what it felt like to have a mortal enemy. He wanted to prove the mysterious debunker wrong. He wanted a conspiracy to be right and his rival to swallow his words.

    Summary

    “So… you’re basically the Grim Reaper?”
    “Sort of…”
    “But now… you’re retired?”
    “Indeed.”
    “And now that’s my job?”
    “Yes.”
    “Do I get a choice?”
    “Not really.”

     

    Join Midoriya and the recently retired Death, Gami, as they learn to travel hero society together. With some newly acquired powers and a desire to help as many people as possible, Midoriya is ready to dive head first into heroism. But he must first learn how to use his deadly abilities for good, as well as fool everyone else that he does indeed have a quirk.

    Basically the Grim Reaper AU that no one asked for. Definitely more of an emotional rollercoaster than I was planning but we're running with it anyway.

    Summary

    But amidst the darkness that has engulfed his life, a miracle occurs.

    As if by the whims of an unknown deity, something incredible happens. In that moment of intense pain and desperation, there is a loud snap, and everything immediately goes gray. Izuku feels a strange sensation wash over him, warm and cool, like a happy balloon floating above everything but swaddled in a weighted blanket simultaneously, as if a weight had been lifted off his shoulders. And the pain vanishes so suddenly it almost surprises him, replaced by an eerie numbness.

    Izuku would later describe the sound as similar to a taut rope finally succumbing to the pressure, snapping under the weight. Whatever it was, he couldn't help but feel an odd sense of relief. It doesn't hurt anymore. He wasn't hungry, cold, burnt, or anything , for that matter. It's more than he could have ever asked for.

    This newfound numbness comes at a price. He realizes that he isn't happy either; it is more like feeling nothing at all.

    ...

    And strangely enough, that's okay.

    (PREVIOUSLY NAMED "THE FULFILLING SOUND OF NOTHING"!!)

    Summary

    Izuku Midoriya was born quirkless in a time where being quirkless was not only the minority, it was exceedingly rare. Society had moved on and those like him are considered essentially useless. All he wanted to was to become a hero despite his set backs. He was ready to take on the world if he had to if that would let him accomplish his dream. Only something happened ten months before the U.A entrance exams that no one could have predicted. A mix of trauma and the will to live pushed the boundaries of human evolution and birthed a quirk like no other. Now, Izuku only has ten months to figure out how to juggle not only no longer being quirkless, but now equipped with a quirk that will could make him the greatest hero the world has ever seen.
