Izuku Midoriya gave up on heroism the day he graduated. Becoming a cop was never the dream, but it was his only way to make something of his "useless" life. Gradually the work took a toll, day after day, night after night. Izuku's body had succumb to the physical effects of chasing criminals all day. Due to his perfect track record he was able to move to a different department of work- he became a detective, for a quieter scene. Although less physically draining, Izuku now lives in a fog of caffeine and cases, numb to it all-until a string of brutal murders drags him back into the fire. The unsub is always one step ahead.

Loveless
"I'm sorry I was never good enough," Izuku slowly climbed over the rails "I tried I really did my best to prove myself...So why can't anyone see that?" 'Do it Izuku.....it's the only way' Izuku let the tears fall as he let go. A large broken smile graces his face as the air harshly kisses his skin. "MIDORIYA!" 'It's going to be ok now' "Please save me" The small boy whispered as he neared the ground. No one notices that he's in pain. No one notices that the happy mask he always wears is crumbling. Everyone ignores the deafening sound of his cracking heart. Izuku Midoriya is falling deeper and deeper.

ᴜ.ᴀ's ʀᴇʜᴀʙɪʟɪᴛᴀᴛɪᴏɴ | ᴛʜᴇ ᴠɪʟʟᴀɪɴs' ʜᴇʀᴏ
Izuku Midoriya once dreamed of becoming a hero. But after being diagnosed as quirkless, everything changed. His classmates turned their backs on him. His relatives kept their distance. Even his childhood friend left him behind. At home, the abuse was constant. At school, the bullying never stopped. To the world, Izuku wasn't just powerless-he was worthless. After one especially brutal day, something inside him broke. Standing on the edge of his school's rooftop, he nearly gave up for good. But someone intervened. Someone who saw him, and offered him a place among others who had been discarded by society. Now, Izuku faces a choice: abandon everything and become what the world always accused him of being-or return to the life that made him want to disappear. But things take an unexpected turn when he's sent to a rehabilitation program-inside U.A., the very school he once longed to attend. Surrounded by students who still believe in justice, Izuku is forced to confront the parts of himself he thought he'd buried. Is there still hope left in him to become something more-or has he already become the thing he feared most? ___________________________________________________________________ ⚠️Trigger Warnings⚠️ This story includes content that may be triggering to readers.

Good Enough?!
Izuku Midoriya had enough from life, everyone was telling him how useless he was. His mother stopped looking at him. His best friend bullies him. He had no one who cares about him or so he thought. "Thank you for saving me, you are a great hero, I won't do this again. I promise! Can you unbind the scarf now?" He chose his words carefully and gave the sleep-deprived hero the brightest fake smile he could offer. "I am really fine! You can now go and continue your hero work." "You don't look fine!" .... This is a suicidal Deku story combined with Dadzawa. A/N: Be warned mention of suicidal thought and attempts as well as cutting. I do not make any waning beforehand in the story so consider yourself warned. This is a mha fanstory and I have no idea where this is gonna go ... hope you enjoy!

Obsession ||Insane Deku||
//DISCONTINUED. Sorry.// ma·ni·a ˈmānēə/ noun an excessive enthusiasm or desire; an obsession ---------------------- #1 in Insane Deku 12/23/18 #1 in Bamf Izuku 2/7/19 #1 in Unhealthy Love 3/16/19 Izuku Midoriya had always been a tad bit obsessed with the thought of heroes and villains and Quirks in general. Taking notes of fighting styles, Quirk strengths, Quirk limitations. Memorizing hero catchphrases, buying collector's items; covering his walls in pictures and drawings of villains and heroes, A-listers and C-listers alike. Of course, if one looked at this behavior on the surface, it seemed completely normal. Never had Izuku let his fanboying get in the way of school work or his social life (not that he had one). No-one thought to even suspect him in the slightest when heroes started to go missing, only to be found, dead, with some body part or another missing. No-one noticed Izuku's instability and unhealthy addiction to all things with super powers. At least, not at first. ||Based on a messed up one-shot I made a while ago. Not really tho|| ||Almost immediate canon divergence. Takes place in season 1 and 2. Please no spoilers for the manga or season 3 in the comments|| ||TW: sexual elements, major character death, profanity, stalkerish tendencies, blood, gore, possible non-con, one-sided love, mental disorder, unhealthy perception of love, mania|| ||Also, Izuku comes from a relatively unloving home.||Complete
