Thirteen year old Etsu hasn't been given a very good run of life. Stealing chips and jello cups from a hospital just to get some food in her, she doesn't expect to stumble across the room of a five year old Shoto Todoroki. Left recovering alone from a burn scar over his eye and looking terribly sad in his too-big hospital bed, Etsu doesn't expect to spontaneously ask if he wants to come with her, either. Now both on the streets, Etsu's determined to give Shoto the life he deserves. Because if she's going to kidnap an entire child, she's going to commit to it and get him what he needs. No matter how hard it is or how many laws she has to break. After all, she already took him-- anything that comes after is just another cherry on top. Now, if she can just do all that without getting caught, that'd be great. And where do all these other children keep coming from? (Or: Etsu sees Shoto Todoroki in the hospital and thinks he looks very alone. After asking if he wants to come with her, she whisks him away to raise him. It goes a lot better than you'd think. Even if she does get a couple more kids than she bargained for in the end.)

Endeavor doesn't believe in soulmates, right up until the moment he gets one. Enji isn't winning any awards for his vile parenting abilities and the only skill Hoshi Kansai really has is the ability to do the splits in skin-tight denim shorts without ripping them. They're from entirely different worlds with entirely different personalities. Everything about them should clash, and yet... it doesn't. And Enji isn't sure how to feel about that. Or: Endeavor finds redemption with the help of a short, quirkless stoner who likes to dance.

All Might went into an orphanage for a charity event and came out with a new lease on life and an adorable-- if not slightly traumatized-- son. Izuku is a boy with open eyes and a kindness that stretches miles and miles deep. He knows more than any ten year old should, and Toshinori is aware of this. He's been aware of this since the moment he crouched down in front of the boy and let him press their palms together. Now Toshinori is impossibly smitten and determined to heal Izuku the same way he helped heal him, no matter what challenges jump in the way. He'll protect and build him up no matter what. For his son, nothing is ever too much. Of course, he never claimed to think fatherhood to be easy going in. He just... hadn't thought it would make him want to Detroit Smash some cocky brat named 'Kacchan' through a wall either. Or: Izuku heals All Might on a whim and gets himself a new, (extremely overprotective) dad in the process.

When the world ends, their only hope is to send one Quirkless man back in time. Back in his 14-year-old body, will Midoriya Izuku be able to save the world that shunned him all his life? And will he finally be able to become a hero this go around? Good thing he had time as a vigilante to practice.

-SFW -No romance, only flirt atm -Aizawa is peepaw not daddy -No he's literally your peepaw -Shinsou is bae, but so is kami, mina, baku, todo, tsu, monoma, kiri, etc -Have fun ig -you already read this, Katrinakat

Izuku's mom died in a car crash, the same one that gave Izuku his quirk. Izuku's dad is taking him to America to study at their top hero school. What happens when their class meets 1-A? This is not a BakuDeku, nor is it a TodoDeku. In fact, as of now there are no ships. I do not own bnha or any pictures, only the story and original characters are mine.

Basically a one-shot book based off of my story "Swan dive" showing various scenes that weren't included, that I only thought of afterwards and alternate storylines and endings that I thought I might as well write.

Not all advice is good advice. But even bad advice can be better than it may seem. Sometimes, all it takes is a bit of faith. Or a willingness to face the end.
