A Hero Or A Villain - A POV Kokichi Story
This is a story, where everyone has powers. There are superheroes of course, and supervillains. This takes place during a time where heroes are currently recruiting new sidekicks- Those heroes, of course, were most likely to be young, still in high school type of age. Of course there'd still be some pretty old heroes out there, and villains too, but it was much more likely to find younger heroes. Not to mention they wouldn't hide their real names. They'd use their real name as a hero name, which could be dumb in a way, but they wouldn't exactly have to get in trouble for suddenly leaving class or anything, they'd be able to get out of everything as long as they were able to save the day. Unfair, right? Though, that's just how society is nowadays. [P.S. This is a Saiouma story.]Complete

The Obsessive Villainess Vol. 1 ✔
"Don't touch that man." "Why not?" "He has a beast guarding him." I am that beast; Nora. I woke up as the villain of this book, destined to die after going crazy due to my love for the main lead. "I spent my last life wanting to die, and now that I've decided to survive, this world is after me?" No. I won't die such a pathetic death. I will survive this time. No matter what. But first, I need to survive these main leads. One won't leave me alone; the other keeps fighting with me; another is destined to kill me... Even my superpowers are so weak! Surviving in a world that hates me... Is kinda difficult. *** I got tired of reading about 'special' and 'pure-hearted' heroines so I decided to write about a character I could relate to. Writing gets better after first few chapters. [#1 Angst] [#1 Obsession] [#2 Yandere] [#1 Villain] [#1 Antagonist] [#1 Superpowers]Complete

Just the janitor | Yandere heroes x male reader
In a world of superpowered beings, it's natural some become heroes to try and better the world such as Scarlett the Bold, Janice the shield, Mary the healer, and the one everyone fawns over: Stardust. As cheesy as it is to say, "With great power comes with great responsibility." So they formed the hero's guild under the name: Justice. To keep not only themselves in check but any future heroes who come to take up the mantle of preserving peace and justice. And then there's you; No powers, no great feats of achievement. Just a regular person trying to go about his days worrying about the future rather than saving lives. After hearing your mother complain about your need to get a job after graduation, you come across an advertisement online that grabs your attention. Not knowing what the future has in store for you, we can only pray god will have mercy on your soul. -------------------------- Hey guys welcome back to another story I hopefully won't delete after a week again! I've got nothing else going on, and I'm seeing a lack of male reader yandere stories recently. The yandere tag is filled with girl stuff that I can't read lmao. Anyways, I've got basically nothing going on outside of work so expect frequent updates. Until I hit burnout, but we'll find out how it goes. But I do hope you enjoy this story! There are some warnings as it'll get dark, fairly quickly. Trigger warnings I guess could be: Torture, manipulation, gaslighting, love bombing, kidnapping, and a slight amount of gore. I'll update this as I add more chapters. update February 12 2026: removed certain aspects containing imagery generated from ai. ew. just ew. screw ai. #1 MaleReader 5/23/24 #1 Gaslighting 5/23/24 #1 Yanderegirl 5/23/24 #1 Hero 6/12/24Complete

Heroes at Heart
"I've tried telling them I'm only fifteen. That no sane government would force a boy my age to fight crime. 'But Max, you're a superhero! Isn't this what you want?' Actually, no. I just kind of want to get through high school. Then we'll talk about this 'superhero' business." Max Owens is your average high school sophomore. Well, he tries to be, at least. At fifteen, he's got more important things to do than fight the infamous Vinicus Cauldwell. With his single mother having recently lost her job, Max is determined to help his family get back up on its feet. The publicity and pressure that comes with being a superhero would be too much to handle right now. But it's hard to fly under the radar, when you can literally fly. Meanwhile, Vinicus Cauldwell enjoys the power he has as Murkbourne's most feared super-villain. For once, he can sit back and relax without being pestered by the police. That is, until Max arrives. Vinicus isn't happy about having to fight a child, but he can't let Max find out. After all, super-villains can't be "good people"... Can they? We can't all be born heroes. But most of us are Heroes at Heart. (Based on a writing prompt / story request by tumblr user "fallingivy")Complete
