Summary
At age thirty-five, being at the top is…
Living alone in an apartment big enough for five. It’s closing your eyes and inhaling the crisp spring air, only to remember war-scorched skies and the metallic scent of blood. Passing by a laughing group of strangers, only to hear screams for help. Watching your colleagues around you either get married or fall apart—there’s no in-between. It’s an itch that you can’t scratch out of your skin, where old lacerations have amassed on epidermis. The ringing in your ears that doesn’t go away no matter how many times you’ve changed your hearing aids.
It’s sleeplessness even when your body is so exhausted, because your mind is on overdrive. Yesteryear’s failures are monsters breathing under your bed. The friends you let slip, the lives you couldn’t save.
The boy with green eyes.
Twenty years later, Katsuki rescues Izuku from a villain attack. As they rebuild their friendship from scratch, he learns what it means to be a hero.

Neil Josten is used to running. He just-- needs a place to catch his breath.
Andrew Minyard doesn't want a mate. And he certainly doesn't want one with a smart, lying mouth and no self-preservation skills

On the Nature of Surviving by SilverBlood822

Summary
If there is one thing that he has learned, it is that surviving is hard. By itself, choosing to survive and continuing to exist will be one of the hardest things to accomplish and by the next day he is surprised he didn't die the day before. Or the week before. Or the year before that. By all rights he should be dead by now. But there is something about giving up that feels like it gives every shattered child to follow him the excuse to give up too, and he can't die with that on his conscience.
So when after years of surviving he gets into UA by clawing his way through metal and impossibilities, he will give everything he has to give everyone even the slightest chance to learn to live too, because oh it is a beautiful thing. Living is looking at the stars and breathing cool night air, knowing that you deserve it because everyone deserves it. He believes there are no exceptions to who deserves to be saved, so he learns that he is not an exception either.
When he is put in the position where living is impossible but death is taken away, he puts everything he has towards ensuring the survival of those who taught him the difference between living and surviving.Series

Summary
The booming laughter came from the neighbor’s apartment again, it was even louder this time. Katsuki groaned, throwing the pillow over his head. If he blasted the civilian would people really blame him?
The pro hero decided his neighbor was some useless, lazy kid who was too loud and annoying to find a job, because who the hell was home at 5 p.m on a Wednesday? He decided the neighbor was ugly too.
Katsuki was too tired for this after his 16 hours long shift, he needed to sleep, so he decided to give the neighbor a taste of his own medicine, hitting the pots and pans of his kitchen every time he heard a sound from the apartment next door.
He wasn't surprised when the neighbor showed up later slamming on his door. But he was still somewhat shocked, he had been wrong after all.
The fucker was a cute little thing.
