Just how bad could it be if one small change was added to Izuku Midoriya? 

When suffocated by the Sludge Villain years ago, an impairment of the area in his brain that produces 5% of the body's serotonin* occurred. He's placed on medication to ease the symptoms of his condition, Serotonin Deficiency, though not much comes from it. Energy-depleting side effects, overwhelming amounts of pressure, and shortening limits gnaw away at his potential and mental health. 

Though, that's not the only thing that aims to turn everything upside down. One day, a man puts a package in Inko's hands, requesting it to be given to her son. Once the contents and the sender become a reoccurring mystery, questions and questions pile up, and life begins draining like sand through Izuku's fingers. Head aching and hope running dry, it's only a matter of time before things quickly cross the line, and turning back is no longer an option.


*Serotonin is a chemical responsible for controlling mood, attention, sleep, and pain. (5% of which produced in your brain.)

Falling (Depressed Deku Fanfic) (COMPLETE) by WholeLotOfDeku
18 parts Complete Mature
Ever since Izuku Midoriya joined U.A. High School and settled in, he knew that the League of Villains were after him and his quirk: One For All. However, when the time comes when Bakugo is the target and is only seconds away from being captured, Midoriya throws himself in the chaos and ends up saving Bakugo, only at the cost of his own safety as he is captured instead. Midoriya is brought back to the League of Villains' hideout and with him there, Shigaraki plans on changing the young boy's mindset and plans to use force against him. When Midoriya isn't able to escape for three years and no one can seem to find him, he begins to lose hope and his wounds only bleed more. Even when he goes back in time with the help of a pro hero's quirk, he is diagnosed with depression and struggles to go on through life. He doesn't feel like himself. He needs someone. He needs someone so badly. But what if there isn't anybody to help Midoriya? How will Midoriya cope when someone close to him dies right in his arms? Warning! This story will contain depression, suicide talk, torture (not explained explicitly), violence, and a whole lot of angst! Also, this story won't contain any ships. So, there isn't any BakuDeku, TodoDeku, etc., it's just a depressing story with Midoriya with his friends trying to change themselves to help him and their own selves in the future.

Out patrolling with his father, Shoto Todoroki sees someone towering over the ledge of a broad building. Believing the boy will jump, Shoto scrambles to save him. That's when he encounters Midoriya for the first time. The young boy is reckless and arrogant, but something about him easily reels Shoto in. As they start talking, Midoriya abruptly ends their conversation, leaving his notebook behind. Mere hours later, Shoto tries to return the notebook, and meets Izuku instead. He's Midoriya's identical; there's no way Midoriya and Izuku are different people, right? Wrong. The more Shoto learns about the different personalities inhabiting Izuku Midoriya's body, the harder he seems to fall for the troubled villain/ anxious sweetheart. Midoriya works for the League of Villains, but something about the whole situation screams deceit. Is Midoriya truly evil? Can Izuku do the right thing, and push past his cowardice to serve the greater good? And can Shoto break free of his past, and start participating in life instead of watching from the sidelines? Two Sides of a Coin is a Tododeku Villain AU If your a homophobe or something, then just f*ck off. It's a boyxboy anime fanfic. Don't hate, just move on. Note Worthy: -playlist in the last chapter -i don't own any of the characters; they're all from MHA -cursing -touches on depression a bit: minor trigger warning maybe? -nothing too inappropriate, just a tad steamy (I'll give a heads up for people avoiding that kind of thing) -kiribaku tinee tiny bit -bakubitch -badass villain fights *punches air* -def doesn't follow plot of show/manga -honestly not enough Aizawa :( -complete
