    Summary

    Welcome back! This is Part Three of a Pokémon AU, so please read the other parts first!

    After the disaster that happened after he returned home from his Journey, Izuku leaves Musutafu and its discrimination behind again. At least while he was arrested, Sinnoh Champion Cynthia finally asked his Mom out on a date. Now, he's setting out on new journey in a new region with his new step-mom there to support him! Although, maybe his time in the Sinnoh region won't be as relaxing as he would like with all different kinds of problems testing his resolve.

    Because training to become an Aura Guardian wasn't difficult enough with spontaneously developing a crush on his pokémon partner, learning how to be an older brother, somehow getting so lost that Palkia is clearly conspiring against him, obsessively researching pokémon behaviors, waking up to strange shifting phenomenon, and stopping a poké-terrorist organization that wants to destroy reality.

    Izuku just wanted a vacation and a training montage. Was that too much to ask?

    Summary

    As a child, Izuku Midoriya decided it would be better if he were Quirkless than to have a power that scared everyone. Now a teenager and looking to enter U.A, he finds himself as the protege of All Might and a student of the best heroes in the nation. But there's no running from a part of you, and he's learning the hard way that you have to accept all of yourself to be a real hero.

    Having been partners in crime with Izuku ever since they were children, Katsuki Bakugo is more than a little surprised when his timid friend makes it into U.A with him. He's knows they're going places with the best heroes in the world to guide them, but Katsuki also knows that his best friend is heading into a world prepared to reject his very being. Try as he might to blast through those problems, there are some snags even his explosions cannot destroy.

    As they both struggle to overcome their problems and support their surrogate brothers, Izuku and Katsuki somehow find themselves leading their class into the world of heroes- and desperately trying to protect a little girl called Eri, the first person they saved as a team.

    Summary

    Broken in blood and fire, moulded by smouldering hatred for the lasting consequences of a stupid mistake. Born anew by a deal made in desperation, and reforged by the hands of sinister intentions.

    Quirks either come at 4, or they don't come at all, that the is common wisdom. But common doesn't always mean correct. Some quirks are very specific, like telepathy only working if both parties will it to, or only being able to talk to one species of worm.

    But some quirks require a certain... push.

    Summary

    Midoriya Izuku has always been written off as weird. As if it's not bad enough to be the quirkless weakling, he has to be the weird quirkless weakling on top of it.

    But truthfully, the "weird" part is the only part that's accurate. He's determined not to be a weakling, and in spite of what it says on paper, he's not actually quirkless. Even before meeting All-Might and taking on the power of One For All, Izuku isn't quirkless.

    Not that anyone would believe it if he told them.

    (This story now has a TV Tropes page!)

    Summary

    In a world as varied and diverse as a quirked one, it might be hoped that fear and discrimination would become things of the past. But alas, people are not so good or kind.
    Mutation quirks are the dirty secret of Quirked society; rare, feared, powerful. Treated like something barely human, those who hold them disappear into the lawless subterranean city known as the Musutafu Underground, the most villain-infested place in Japan.
    Mina Ashido is twenty-four and a thief, struggling to survive in a world that calls her a monster. But then, a chance meeting and a single choice sends her down a new path.
    Now, she’s falling in love with the Number One Hero, the man all the Underground hates and fears: Izuku Midoriya, the hero Atlas. Worse, something dark is rousing itself in the deepest parts of the Underground, eyes locked on the world above. And now a pink-skinned, golden-eyed monster could hold the fate of the city (and Izuku’s heart) in her hands.
    It’s going to take a miracle for this to end well.

    INCREDIBLE dark story. Wrestles with morality and kindness and what's Right versus what's lawful, the moral greyness perfect. What all fic aspires to be.
