    Summary

    Shouto decides to visit his mother for the first time in years, and decides to stop at a flower shop along the way.

    He freezes in place, and before he can move again someone is bustling through the door behind the counter, all messy hair and wide green eyes. It’s a teenager, a little shorter than Shouto but probably the same age. He’s got a wide smile and there’s a smudge of dirt on his cheek, which instantly draws Shouto’s attention. His fingers itch to rub it off.

    Summary

    A day to themselves for the first time in months.

    “What?” Shouto asks, blinking.

    “Yeah,” Izuku says, warming up to the idea quickly. “Let’s go out together. Just the two of us. We haven’t gone out in forever.”

    The first time Izuku remembers meeting Shouto, he’s fourteen years old and immediately smitten.

    (AU where Izuku keeps getting killed during their first year at UA—so Shouto keeps travelling back in time to save him.)

    Summary

    When people ask to see his quirk, Izuku throws out an arm and the invisible person floats objects into the air for him. When Kacchan comes near, the invisible person tickles his arm or blows air into his ear, warning him away.

    The invisible person feels like his partner, a co-conspirator in this secret. A protector.

    Izuku might not have a quirk, but he does have a friend.

     

    Or: when a passing ghost protects Izuku from a group of bullies, everyone thinks Izuku's quirk has finally manifested. Telekinesis, just like Inko.

    Partially inspired by this tumblr post.

    Summary

    Shouto had imagined himself as the country’s top hero for decades. Endeavour had put those images in his head when he was a child, and they had stayed there, growing like a fungus, until Shouto had reached adulthood. Even now, he was only just beginning to realise he didn’t have to live his life according to almost thirty-year-old decisions made by his abuser. He could do more. Be more. Outside of the hero community.

     

    Izuku gets a job offer in America. Somehow, this brings Shouto and Izuku closer than ever before.
