    Summary

    Izuku had thought that his argument with All Might would be the worst thing to happen to him this week. Boy, was he wrong.

    (Or: Midoriya Izuku's week quickly goes from bad to worse when, during what's meant to be a live televised conference for UA, he's publicly poisoned and kidnapped. Naturally, all hell breaks loose.)

    For Whumptober!

    Summary

    All for One is a quirk that has maintained a host for the last two hundred years. His host, the First, has grown tired of his quirk's manipulation, violence, and persistence in making sure they both live for as long as possible, so he kills himself to rid the world of this God-forsaken quirk.

    However, All for One is not ready to die and grabs onto the first quirkless host he can find. Thankfully, a young boy is passing under the bridge where the First killed himself, and the quirk latches on as quickly as possible.

    Summary

    Midoriya Izuku has always been written off as weird. As if it's not bad enough to be the quirkless weakling, he has to be the weird quirkless weakling on top of it.

    But truthfully, the "weird" part is the only part that's accurate. He's determined not to be a weakling, and in spite of what it says on paper, he's not actually quirkless. Even before meeting All-Might and taking on the power of One For All, Izuku isn't quirkless.

    Not that anyone would believe it if he told them.

    (This story now has a TV Tropes page!)

    Summary

    Zuko had never excelled at anything. Azula was a prodigy. Uncle always knew what to say. And Father... Father was strong, iron-like. But Zuko had only ever been good at surviving. Putting one foot in front of the other in a grim show of stubborn determination, gritting his teeth and bearing it. Survival was all he had ever been taught. He knew how to do it. So when he was kidnapped by the Southern Water Tribe, he expected to fight as he always had. He didn’t expect to be taught instead how to live.

    In a warring land, the Water Tribe forgave the enemy in an act of defiance. For this, he was torn from them, and this time, his wounds won't heal so easily.

    Forced back into nothing but survival, the last person Zuko expected to see was Hakoda's son. Hakoda was a promise of safety. The relentless blue of Sokka’s eyes was a promise of happiness. Zuko could have both if he just reached out his hands, but he found them clutching into fists. After all, he’d been burned one too many times.

    But hey, at least between Hakoda and Sokka, Zuko could appreciate the family resemblance of pure, asinine stubbornness.

    Summary

    Then, lowering her voice like she’s about to tell them a dirty secret, Ashido says, ‘A new student applied to the U.A. Hero Course.’

    Izuku must look as perplexed as he feels. ‘It’s the start of the school year, Ashido-san,’ he ventures. ‘Why wouldn’t there be new students applying for the Hero Course?’

    ‘It’s because this kid’s Quirkless,’ Kaminari explains, taking a sip of the juice box in his hand. ‘Somehow they passed the entrance exam, God knows how. That’s what everyone’s trying to figure out. Everyone thinks they must have cheated in some way, but we all know U.A. would never accept cheaters. But, you know, everyone knows that a Quirkless kid can’t become a hero. No hate against the Quirkless- it’s just a fact of life.’

    -

    In his second year at U.A. High School, Midoriya Izuku meets a Quirkless first-year student in the Hero Course.
