Echos of Steel by Tempest68

In a world where Quirks reign supreme, heroes are worshiped like gods, and the powerless are left behind, Aiden Wolfe stands apart. Born Quirkless and disregarded by society, Aiden has no interest in the hero system or its false promises of salvation. Instead of turning to Quirks, Aiden turns to technology. Armed with a mind that rivals the greatest intellects, he dives into the world of cyberware, developing innovations that can push humanity forward-without the need for Quirks. But Aiden's independent mindset puts him at odds with the Hero Public Safety Commission and UA, who see his advancements as a threat to their carefully constructed system. Despite attempts to force him into compliance, Aiden refuses to be controlled. He's not interested in being a hero or following the rules of a society that discarded him. Every step of the way, he faces heroes who misunderstand his motives, a government that seeks to control him, and a system designed to suppress anyone who dares to challenge the status quo. But Aiden won't back down. With his cybernetic creations, sharp wit, and determination, he's ready to show the world that there's another path forward-a path where Quirks aren't the only way to make a difference. In a world obsessed with power, Aiden is prepared to stand alone and prove that true strength comes from those who refuse to be controlled. "Let the heroes have their Quirks," he says. "I'll build something better."

Stolen Minds by 01randomuser02

In the age of technology, it's certainly a great time to be alive. New technology by NeuraPlex, an up and coming research company, allows anyone to upload their mind to a server and be woken up in the future in a new body of their choosing. To top it off, participants feel as if no time has passed. Natalie Coleman is one such person looking to enter the future. With a boyfriend who bailed last minute, a mom too sad to support her, and a dad who's anti-tech, the only person she has left is Eli. Together, they go through with the upload and plan to wake up 100 years in the future. What was supposed to be a fun adventure in time turns into a nightmare. Natalie wakes up alone, or at least without Eli. Woken up in a room full of strangers, she finds out that it's been closer to a millennium from the date of her upload, and they're trapped to be the slaves of who Natalie assumes to be NeuraPlex. Finding Eli is her first priority and escape is her second, but in a world where every uploaded mind is in an unfamiliar body and tied to company owned chips, these tasks are nearly impossible. Should she manage to find Eli and escape her despotic captors, what can she do about all the other stolen minds?
