What if, and hear me out here, Izuku did something about being 'quirkless'? What if he stood up and said he wasn't going to take shit from anyone? Well . . . I think it might go a little something like this.

What happens when UA has a special test ready for the students? Dividing them into two groups of Heroes and Villains? What if Midoriya is made the leader of the Villains? He is gonna give them one big reason to be thankful that Deku is not the name of a villain... ‑‑‑‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ↳ ɴᴏᴛᴇs ﹏﹏‍ ｡˚✩ ‑‑‑‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ‑ ​✎ Inspired by another fanfiction on Ao3. ✎ I don't own any of the characters used. ✎ Cover by @-izushim - ͙۪۪̥˚┊❛ ᴇɴᴊᴏʏ ❜┊˚ ͙۪۪̥◌

What if Bakugou was misunderstanding something this entire time. What if Izuku wasn't interested in the whole heroes and villains thing that society projected and wrapped itself around. What if Izuku found a book in a library as a child that introduced him to a whole new world. A beautiful, intricate, enticing world about life. Because even though not all men are born equal, they will always have the opportunity to improve and live their lives fully.

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.

When he was a kid, Midoriya Izuku was hit by an unknown Quirk. He was found a few days later, unharmed. He was gone for just a few days to the world, and he never told anyone where he'd been. Who would believe that he'd been sent back in time several hundred years to the Pre-Quirk Era? That he'd been adopted by a pair of circus performers who gave him the name Richard Grayson? That he, Quirkless Midoriya Izuku, had become Robin, the Boy Wonder, famed partner to the Old Hero, Batman. Yeah. Nobody was going to believe that. At least he could become a LEGAL hero, now.

• ON HIATUS • Midoriya Izuku attracted trouble. It was just a fact of life - the sky was blue, the grass was green, and Izuku constantly found himself in an absurd number of deadly situations. He was okay with that. Mortal peril was an average Tuesday afternoon for a Pro Hero like him. Being kidnapped was practically a holiday. Saving civilians as a building collapsed around him was easier than facing his worried mum afterwards. He had dealt with All Might's disappointed dad stare and only cried for two hours afterwards. A serial killing villain with an unknown Quirk would be no problem! ...but even Izuku had to admit that being sent back in time to his first day at UA wasn't on the agenda. Still, there was no-one more spitefully determined than him - he was going to make the most of it. Yeah, good luck, heroes and villains alike! Deku was here to cause mischief and love his friends! ~ [Includes a couple of other Ticked Off mini-fics ("Clockwise" and "Summoners") because I don't wanna clutter up my profile by making new books] [Also posted on Ao3 under the same title and username!]
