This is a reaction fic to Cupid's Gauntlet by Epsilon110 & Jade_Kitsune. (These are their Ao3 tags,) What would you do for an All Might action figure? Midoriya never thought he would be challenged with that question, but as he gripped the box of a new, limited series "Thin-Might" action figure, he could feel that question echoing throughout his head. Especially since Kaminari looked like he was not willing to let go either. or Kaminari learned not to challenge Midoriya to a battle of stubborn determination when All Might merch is on the line. A shame the Class A women rigged the bet in Midoriya's favor. I DO NOT OWN MY HERO ACADEMIA OR CUPID'S GAUNTLET. My Hero Academia is owned by Kōhei Horikoshi. Cupid's Gauntlet is written by Epsilon110 & Jade_Kitsune.

Izuku Yagi, a young boy that dreamed of being a hero, to save people just like All Might. That was... Until he and his sister got the Quirk Test result. Quirkless. After that, things were never the same. His Father and Mother barely looked his way, talking to him only when necessary and ignoring his pleas when needed. His sister Izumi Yagi and his former best friend Katsuki Bakugo, berated, bullied, abused him, all because he had the thought of being a hero. Everything came to a halt when even his idol (and father), All Might, told him he couldn't be a hero. Distraught, he couldn't take it anymore. He left, gone before any of his former family even realized. Unbeknownst to him however, a certain person was watching. Someone who saw potential in such a young mind, someone who could truly be a successor, someone who could break the Symbol of Peace. This man was searching for a successor after Tenko Shimura was saved by All Might before HE could get to the boy. What better than his own son he discarded. Yes, he could see the boy's Corrosive Heart bleed out and bring all of Japan and Hero Society to Ruin. He just needed to take his hand... "Come, Fushoku Shigaraki... for I am here"

Izuku Midoriya has always been told he's powerless, a boy destined to watch heroes from the sidelines. But when he unknowingly consumes the legendary Mera-Mera no Mi, fire bursts through him, igniting his body and his spirit. With every spark, he learns that courage, heart, and determination can defy fate itself. From the ashes of hopelessness, he rises to become a blazing symbol of hope... ...the boy who will one day be the world's greatest hero.

Devastated by the words of his idol All Might, the Number 1 Hero, Izuku Midoriya tries to end his life by taking a swan dive of the building he and his idol was on. As he closes his eyes, accepting his fate, he found himself standing on a building and facing The Prototype himself Alex Mercer. There Mercer told him he was Izuku's past self and he is willing to merge their souls to give the Blacklight Virus to our protagonist and letting it mutate into a quirk. With this new quirk, Izuku will prove to those who doubt him that he too can be a hero. Disclaimer: I do not own the My Hero Academia nor Prototype Franchises..

Faux All For One Izuku Yagi was supposed to be a hero. The son of the Symbol of Peace, raised in the shadow of greatness-until the day he found out he'd never be chosen. Not for One For All. Not for anything. So he ran. And that night, his real power woke up. A Quirk that could take *other people's* Quirks. A power that made him a target, a ghost, and a problem no hero wanted to admit existed. Now, under the name **Faux All For One**, Izuku walks the line between villain and savior-stealing powers from monsters and using them to save the people heroes forgot. He's not trying to be a symbol. He's just proving he didn't need their approval to matter. (Art done by Icarus [Fanamations])

Izuku been pushed around way to many times and has been bullied, scorned, and casted aside his entire life. Been told he can't amount to anything, and even told to kill himself. What people didn't know is that he was a natural super genius who had a great talent for creating and engineering, but nobody ever saw through his Quirklessness. Now armed with all kinds of super advanced technology and weapons, along with an army of yellow minions, he now plans on getting his revenge by becoming the world's ultimate villain! Oh, but there's one problem; after accidentally saving a white haired little girl, with a horn that can reverse time, who for some reason calls him papa, as well as three other children who look up to him as a sort of father figure. He asks himself, if he could truly be a villain, even thought he always wanted to be a hero? My Hero Academia along with Despicable Me and it's characters are owned by Kohei Horikoshi and Illumination studios and Universal. Cover art also isn't mine. It may be silly, but it's the best one I could find most fitting for this fic. (Art cover credited to Wabby Jane on Tumblr)
