The Guardian of One For All (MHA x Male Reader) by someguyl0l_
79 parts Ongoing
A world where 80% of the entire population get these abilities, known as and named 'Quirks'. The fantasy of heroes and villains became reality... But what about the remaining 20%? Well, that's the problem. The remaining 20% of the population never got Quirks, and as a result, were appropriately named 'Quirkless'. There would be no hope of them becoming heroes, right? But what happens when a phenomenon is Quirkless? This'll (probably lol) be a Mina x Male Reader story... I don't own MHA or its story, nor do I own its characters. Of course, there will be custom characters that I have added in.

Hollow by MichaelKilgallon
1 part Complete
70 000 words of jokes, adventure, romance, myths and legends. Jonjo is a local hero, a former amateur sportsman now in his seventies in the rural west of Ireland. It is whimsical and nostalgic. It has excellent descriptions and embraces different genres. It traces the relationship between the hero and his Irish American cousin. Their different values and experiences initially cause antagonism. Their adventures into the countryside take on a new meaning as they become involved in an age-old conflict. The relationship changes as do the two men. It can be read as a simple tale of adventure or at a deeper level a story of sacrifice and redemption. The story is full of good-natured humour. It is accessible while retaining a literary feel. It is escapist and has a feel-good quality.

Technology. A simple word, isn't it? Well... Not really. It can be anything. Your phones, your PC, or any other device you're using to read this description. BUT... It doesn't end there. Televisions, radios, refrigerators, ovens, blah blah blah, the list goes on and on. Pretty cool, huh? Well, now, let's think of technology in a fictional world. Or even better, a fictional world, where people have gone through mutations in their very genes, giving them specific "inhumane" abilities... Coined as "quirks". In the light of such mutations, people started to bring their dreams to realities, and the concept of "heroes" and "villains" came up. Such genetic mutations spread all around and now, the mutated people, or, "quirked" people, make up about 80 percent of all human life on this fricking earth! Getting back to the point, technology surely has MUCH MORE influence and practical use in this world. Now, imagine the power to control this technology. Or, having a quirk that allows you to do so. Let's join each other and follow the journey of a young man named Y/N Colomar, who has this specific quirk. Like any other kid his age, he wants to be a hero. He just wants to help others, and see people's smiles at the end of the day. The only issue is... The dude is a complete shy introvert. Best rankings: 01/08/2024: #1 in #malereaderinsert
