Minoru Mineta was always the joke of U.A.-until the war left him with a heartbeat and nothing else.
Armed with a borrowed book, a brutal schedule, and the unwavering faith of council president Misao Chijimi, he rebuilds himself in quiet: cones, logs, numbers... and a new name whispered on the mats-Tyrian Taille.
But redemption has a cost. Classmates who once sneered now swarm. Rumors sharpen. An ex-boyfriend with perfect optics (and wintergreen lies) won't let go. And when U.A. rolls out the Last Resort Protocol, Minoru proves he can finish the fight-clean, decisive, terrifying.
This isn't a glow-up. It's a reckoning.
This is his Purple Reign-and a slow-burn love that refuses spectacle.

Linger || Bakugo x Reader
"I don't know how to be like this. But I'm tryin'. For you." Y/N grew up learning how to disappear. She stayed quiet when it hurt. Took up less space. Learned how to smile when she wanted to scream. She knows how to read people - their moods, their shifts, their silence - but she's still learning how to listen to herself. Now she's twenty-one. A pro hero with steady hands and a soft voice. She tells herself she's fine. She always does. Twenty-two, Pro Hero. He's the same rough edged, explosive, quiet and aggressive guy. But around her, it's different. She's quiet, steady - and something in him wants to protect that. So he keeps his distance. Not because he doesn't care, but because he does. More than he ever had. He's scared she'll get hurt. Scared he will, too. But no matter how far he pulls back... she lingers. In his head. In his chest. In all the places he thought were locked..Complete
See Me (Bakugo Katsuki X Reader)
"I can't see anything." "Can you see me?" "Yes." ☆•☆•☆•☆•☆ Loosely based on the chapter from my one-shot book. The story is set in second year so that it doesn't have to interfere with any main plot. May have some spoilers. TW: themes of PTSD, kidnapping, blood, aggressive behavior, themes of anxiety All known characters belong to Kohei Horikoshi. Original characters are my own. No smut as of yet.. maybe as a bonus chapter at the very end. A girl's gotta stay true to her roots ;)Complete

Behind Closed Doors
When Kaminari announced that Midoriya had earned the title of best friend, Bakugo didn't take it well. That was the main reason Midoriya and Kirishima decided to keep their a relationship a secret for so long. It wasn't because they were embarrassed or ashamed, it was because the comfort of the door was all they had to hold onto. However, when the door comes crashing open, it lets in a world of choices and heartbreak. "Is it serious or a fling?" Bakugo asked as he took a step back. For the first time since the redhead walked through his best friends door, he lied. He didn't know why he did. Maybe it was because he thought it would be easier for him to hear, or maybe it was because he knew what was going to happen next. "It's just a fling." He responded as a single tear rolled down his cheek. "Then end it." Warning- smut applied, but no actual smut.Complete
Emerald Light | I. Midoriya x reader
After a war that almost broke the world, Y/N-the woman who can heal any wound and stop any power-has sworn off heroics. Governments call her a miracle. She calls herself done. But once, years ago, a green-haired boy crossed oceans to seek her help. She turned him away. Now that same boy-Izuku Midoriya, older, steadier, still believing in impossible things-stands at the heart of a new world trying to heal. When duty and fate pull Y/N to UA University, she finds herself surrounded by people who see her as human instead of divine... and by the man who never stopped hoping she'd return. Between midnight parties, sparring sessions, and a city learning to live after tragedy, Y/N must decide what she's willing to protect: her freedom, her heart, or the fragile peace that everyone believes she can sustain. A slow-burn romantic fantasy about power, recovery, and the courage to live when the war is finally over. - I don't own BNHA. All rights belong to the Author.Complete
