Summary
A oneshot Fix-It series set in my alternate universe. A universe in which Anakin doesn't conceal the Tusken Massacre, recognizes his mistake, and reaches out for help. Events cascade from there.
Anthology containing:
To Help Those Who Help Themselves
Following the discovery of the droid army and subsequent battle on Geonosis, Anakin Skywalker is left in a very horrible mental state due to the death of his mother, though his massacre of the Tusken Raiders isn't helping.
And so, after concluding that while his own emotions were justified, but his actions rather monstrous, the Chosen One makes a choice.
He reaches out for help.
To Honor Code & Principle
The council holds its first meeting with the Senate and the Chancellor after the Battle of Geonosis to discuss what to do about the Separatists and the Clone army.
While Shaak Ti is preoccupied with talking to Anakin, Plo sits through what may be either a productive or unproductive meeting.
And soon gets brought into the loop.
To Converge
The clone troopers arrive to Coruscant, led by Cody and Alpha-17, as they arrive to officially join the Republic as its army.
But then they meet the Jedi, and, well, all bets are off.
To Divulge
While the Jedi council handles the clone troopers and gets them situated, Anakin stays in his room, and decided to reach out to another of the few individuals he is close to.
To Abstain
The Jedi Council broadcasts a message to the entire galaxy, and the galaxy reacts.

Summary
Harry is a child. Why is it his job to save the school? Why is it his job to do anything other than attend classes and do homework?
It’s not his job, but it seems Dumbledore is trying to make it Harry’s job.
And well, after living with the Dursleys so long only to end up under the thumb of a brand new manipulator, can Harry really be blamed for running away?
If no one else sees value in Harry, then it’s Harry’s job to find value in himself. That is a job he can live with.
*
An eleven-year-old boy goes on a journey of self-discovery and self-love.
Let’s see what happens.(And he also maybe saves the world?)

A/N: I got some questions in comments so to clarify: the disability tag WILL NOT apply to Harry at any point in the fic. There is a character who is mute, and remains so for the duration of the fic, and the tag applies only to them.

The Fragile House of Black Anthology by Fantismal, Jormandugr
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
26 Oct 2023
Summary
Following the lives of Sirius and (to a lesser extent) Regulus Black as they navigate their family, Hogwarts, and the first wizarding war.
Everything follows the story as you know it... until Kreacher decides the young Master Regulus is not going to die tomorrow.
Anthology containing:
1948: Sirius Phineas by Fantismal
This fic is dark. It does not need to be read to understand the rest of the series, but it adds more color to the history of the Black Family. It is first in this series because of its chronological placement, but feel free to skip and come back (or never come back at all).
Sirius Phineas Black was the Head of the Black Family from 1925 to 1952. During those 27 years, he terrorized nearly every member of the Family and drove them to a deeper insanity than they'd had before.
Alphard Black had a particular hatred for his great-uncle Sirius. This is just the start of why.
Important by Fantismal
Sirius Black's earliest memory is from when he was two, a promise he made to his father and his baby brother.
(These early stories do not need to be read in order)
"Muggle" isn't a Dirty Word by Fantismal
It's 1966, and six-year-old Sirius Black (almost seven!) wants a new broomstick. When his mummy won't buy it for him, he'll go get it himself!
Except he runs the wrong way out of the Leaky Cauldron and ends up lost in Muggle London.
When the muggles don't actually eat him the way he fears, Sirius does some investigating and learns more about the world than what his parents taught him. Unfortunately, only one person is willing to listen to his discoveries.
(These early stories do not need to be read in order)
Thirteen by Fantismal
Pollux Black had always been an odd duck among the Black Family. They pulled him back into line when he was young, but he's watching history repeat itself with his oldest grandson.
If they forced him into Family loyalty, then Pollux was going to show them what it meant to actually be loyal to his family.
(The series is in chronological order. It does not need to be read in that order.)
The Last Initiation by Fantismal & Jormandugr
Cygnus Black was chosen to help with his favorite nephew's initiation into the Black Family wizards. All he had to do was cast a couple Unforgivables on an 11-year-old Regulus Black. Simple, really.
After leaving Regulus sorely disappointed, Cygnus gets a glimpse of the future from his disgraced older brother.
Ever hate this family, Cygnet?
(These early stories do not need to be read in order)
What is Love? by Fantismal & Jormandugr
The first time Sirius ran away from home, Effie Potter caught him and fed him biscuits.
The second time Sirius ran away from home, Effie Potter held him and told him he was safe with her.
The last time Sirius ran away from home, he had burnt every bridge he'd ever built and nearly gotten his best friends killed. He could only hope Effie would help him anyway.
(These early stories do not need to be read in order)
Of Fathers and Sons by Fantismal
Orion Black is learning how (not) to be a father, but it's too little, too late.
Sirius Black is learning how to be a son, but it's so much, all at once.
Fleamont and James Potter already know all of this.
(Set after the Shrieking Shack incident and Sirius' run away from home. Makes the most sense if you read What is Love? first, but no other stories in this series are required reading for this one.)
Reunions and Revelations by Fantismal & Jormandugr
After the Shrieking Shack Incident and running away from home, Sirius' life is making some pretty dramatic changes. He's starting this new chapter with an apology to the friend he wronged the most: Remus Lupin.
"I'm sorry" isn't strong enough, but maybe, just maybe, revealing the animagus transformation and spending a full moon with the werewolf could be?
(This series is in chronological order but does not need to be read in that order. What is Love? and Of Fathers and Sons are suggested reading before this one, but neither are required to understand it.)
Moments of Happiness by Fantismal
As their last DADA class before OWLs, the fifth years are taught the Patronus Charm as just a bit of fun. It's the first time Sirius finds himself struggling with magic. James and Snape both manage to pull it off, though. Don't matching Patronuses mean love?
This fic can stand alone. You do not need to read any of the rest of the series to understand it
Heartbreaker by Fantismal & Jormandugr
The war is creeping closer to Hogwarts. At least one student has already been attacked in the halls. But when Remus accidentally rips open a wound from Sirius' past, he doesn't know how to stop the bleeding.
Thankfully, Sirius is now safe with the Potters. Effie, Monty, and James all take it in turns to help him heal.
(This series is in chronological order but does not need to be read in that order. Thirteen is suggested reading either before or after this one, as the two deal with the same event.)
Second Chances by Fantismal
Alphard Black is dying. He wants to see his disowned nephew one last time. He has something very important he needs to ask Sirius before he goes.
(This series is in chronological order but does not need to be read in that order. 1948: Sirius Phineas helps flesh out a bit more of Alphard's past. "Muggle" isn't a Dirty Word and What is Love? are also suggested reading.)
For the Love of Sirius Black by Fantismal
“Why the hell is he hooking up with Llewellyn when you are right there?” Peter demanded.
“Because he’s curious!” Remus blew up at his fringe, trying to get it out of his eyes. “He was wondering if maybe the reason he’s so bored with all the girls is because he likes guys, and all because of bloody David Llewellyn!”
“Did he tell you that?” Peter asked, looking over for Remus’ nod. “And you didn’t offer!?”
It's Sirius' last year at Hogwarts, and the gay population at Hogwarts has decided they have to make a move before he graduates. Unfortunately, Remus did not make that move first, and now he's left watching as Sirius has a secret gay awakening without him.
What's a lonely young werewolf to do?
(This series is in chronological order but does not need to be read in that order. The first chapter of Heartbreaker is suggested reading before this story.)
Loyalty by Fantismal
“You can’t hate an entire species!”
“I do, though.”
“Even Remus?”
Peter closed his eyes. “A little bit,” he admitted.
“Remus is your best friend,” Sirius said slowly. “He had nothing to do with the attack. You were with him the whole time! You know that!”
“And I keep thinking that if I hadn’t been, I could’ve done something.”
Peter Pettigrew was not the strongest wizard, or the smartest, or the bravest, or the most handsome. But he did know what it meant to be loyal to your friends. And for nearly seven years, Peter and the Marauders were nothing but loyal to each other.
That all started to unravel when they had to choose between one Marauder's pain and another's innocence.
Every villain needs an origin story.
This is Peter's.
(This series is in chronological order but does not need to be read in that order. For the Love of Sirius Black is suggested reading before this story, but it is not required to understand what's going on.)
Of Fathers and Second Sons by Fantismal & Jormandugr
“If you threatened someone, how long would you wait before you followed through?”
Even though Alphard was dead and gone, Orion could imagine how he would have answered, his blue eyes wicked over his cup of tea, lips curling up like his father’s, like his nephew’s. Precisely as long as needed to make them squirm, and then just a bit more.
Orion sighed. “You are not helpful.”
When Lord Voldemort asks you to do something for him, you better know what you're doing before you throw him out of your house. Orion Black has made a mistake, and now he must cut off Voldemort's ability to end Regulus' life as retaliation.
Except it wasn't the first mistake Orion had made. And he's running out of time to fix things.
(This series is in chronological order but does not need to be read in that order. No other stories in this series are required reading, but all are suggested to flesh out the backstory.)
Sacrifice a Pawn by Fantismal
He’d like to say it was the final straw as well as the first straw, and all the ones in the middle, for good measure. He’d like to say that Kreacher’s tale of pain and fear and abandonment, of horrible mistreatment at the hands of a master, was the first time the Dark Lord’s true character showed itself.
But Regulus wasn’t blind. Nor was he stupid.
Regulus Black is eighteen years old. He has no father, no uncle, no brother he can depend on. All he has is a battered house elf and the knowledge that the Dark Lord has created something so evil, it cannot be allowed to exist.
What is the last son of the Noble and Most Ancient House of Black to do?
(This series is in chronological order but does not need to be read in that order. Of Fathers and Second Sons is suggested reading before this story, but it is not required to understand what's going on.)
Power the Dark Lord Knows Not by Fantismal & Jormandugr
“Regulus,” Sirius finally said, once he trusted he had his own voice under control, “has never once let me help him, even before I was a filthy blood-traitor. Why the fuck do you think I’d be able to save him now?”
Tomorrow night. Kreacher’s words throbbed inside his head. Regulus will die tomorrow night.
Sirius definitely wasn’t going to be getting any sleep at all this week.
Sirius thought he had cut all ties with his family, but when Kreacher shows up in his bedroom with a dire warning, he's hardly able to let his idiot little brother die. And when he learns about the Horcrux his brother was chasing, he's hardly about to let him take on Voldemort alone.
But getting tangled up in the House of Black again is not the best way to prove his innocence among an already-suspicious Order. Sirius has to walk a fine line if he wants to keep everyone he loves alive.
(This series is in chronological order but does not need to be read in that order. NO other stories in this series are required reading, but all are suggested to flesh out the backstory.)
The Ring by Fantismal & Jormandugr
Contains spoilers for Power the Dark Lord Knows Not. Read that first (but no other stories in this series are required reading)!
After the war is over, what's left of the Black family is trying to recover. Regulus is now the master of the Resurrection Stone, and sometimes, talking to those you loved and lost is exactly what the Healer ordered.
The Madness of Herakles by Fantismal & Jormandugr
Gideon and Fabian Prewett, tied for #1 Uncle (according to the mugs they wielded with pride) had dreams of their wild successes as Aurors, winning honor and glory and infamy for their daring rescues of damsels in distress, wrangling monsters like the heroes of myths and legends. But they also knew that the reality of life as an Auror would be a lot of paperwork and cleaning up messes that they hadn't actually been responsible for making. They were (mostly) okay with that.
That all changed when Sirius Black helped them find the lost Diadem of Ravenclaw and said that horrible H-word in their presence.
Horcrux.
Getting to hold a piece of the Dark Lord's soul in your hands does not lend itself to a long life.
Or a particularly sane one.The Boy Who Lived by Jormandugr
This is a sequel/epilogue to Power The Dark Lord Knows Not, and will contain spoilers for that story. No other stories in the series are required reading.
Regulus Black is alive. Regulus Black is also a young veteran who will carry the scars of his part in the war for the rest of his life, and who will always have to live with the things he has done, the people he has hurt, and the things he couldn't save. And, while the people around him lean on each other and move forward into the future... what is there left for him to move forward for?
Regulus Black is alive. Turning twenty, six months after the war, he really wishes he wasn't.

Summary
Find your happy ending. The whole idea was ludicrous. His life consisted of loneliness, poverty and Master Potioneer Phillips’s petty tyrannies. Draco was grateful he wasn’t readying himself for prison, but the next fourteen years would be a long sentence nevertheless.
When Draco is sentenced to a probation term of fourteen years, his future looks grim. Not only does he have to surrender his passport, but he is forbidden from having any contact with his beloved Mum. He lives in scruffy rooms on Knockturn Alley, works long hours as an Apothecary Apprentice and doesn’t feel like he has much of a future.
Everything changes on the third of December, 1999. That evening Harry Potter sits beside Draco in the Thestral Tavern, returns his wand and asks to take his photograph with a Muggle Polaroid camera.

The Adventures of Farm Boy & Dr. Boyfriend Anthology by almostvirginia
Fandoms: Stardew Valley (Video Game)
24 Aug 2021
Summary
Anthology containing:
Through the Worst of the Winter
Desperate not to spend the rest of his days as a corporate drone, Charlie packs up his life and moves to Pelican Town to start a farm. The only thing is, Stardew Valley is full of distractions: stray puppies, nosy neighbors, monster-infested mines, lurking underground horrors. And then there’s the most dangerous distraction of all—the sweet, shy town doctor, who Charlie can’t seem to stop thinking about.
Harvey came to Pelican Town six years ago with a broken heart, a medical license, and a conviction that his best days were behind him. But when a sunburnt young farmer appears in his clinic one day, he finds himself wondering if his terminal loneliness might be curable, after all.
Who said country life was simple?
Instant Classic
A few weeks before Winter Star, Charlie and Harvey take the kids to the movies. With somewhat mixed results.
The Dew of Dying Stars
“If not a farmer, what did you actually want to be?”
“Oh, you can probably guess that one. I wanted to be a captain in Starfleet. Didn’t have to be the Enterprise, necessarily, as long as I got my own ship.”
“Why on Earth did I go with ‘pilot’? Obviously I should have thought bigger. Maybe I could have been your first officer.”
“It’s not too late. Space travel gets more advanced all the time. There’s hope for us yet, Number One.”Captain Charlie of the Federation flagship Stardew is a lucky son of a bitch, as his first officer constantly reminds him. He has the most beautiful ship in the galaxy; he has the most talented crew in Starfleet; he has a five-year mission stretching before him, full of possibility. The only thing he doesn't have is the thing he wants most: the heart of his Vulcan chief medical officer. Who's been acting very strange lately...

IcyHot Broccoli Shots Anthology by CrzA
Fandoms: 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia, Miraculous Ladybug
07 May 2020
Summary
Anthology containing:
Hearts on fire
Midoriya and Todoroki try out their first time kissing, whether it was planned or not. There's some embarrassment, some laughter and definitely some fire between them. It's really nothing but a bit of cute fluff.
I'm here if you want to
Todoroki is going back to his room after going to the bathroom late at night. On his way past the common room, he finds Midoriya crying by himself and he can't help but stop and try to comfort him.
I'm sorry I'm too weak
When Todoroki has one particularly bad day, Endeavor's words won't leave him alone, they weigh on him with every breath he takes and they consume him. Weak. Too weak. He's wound so tight and he's so tired. That tension is bound to snap and take those around him with it.
You, me, popcorn and childhood dreams
When Midoriya finds out that Todoroki has never watched any of the Disney movies that filled his childhood with magical dreams and joy, he immediately has to right this horrible wrong. Todoroki finds himself at his friend's house for a movie marathon sleepover and he's not entirely sure what to do with himself. Was it always this hard to not stare at Midoriya?
The Death of a Hero
That night marked the death of a hero. It marked the death of a friend, of a partner, of someone he loved. Shouto loved quietly but until the very end...
How to make a Shouto squirm
It was an accident really. It’s not like he was actively trying to pry any secrets out of his friend, how was he supposed to know? All Midoriya was trying to do was get Todoroki’s attention when they were in his dorm room studying. Granted he could’ve gone for a tap on his shoulder, or maybe even his arm but how was he supposed to predict this reaction?
Or Midoriya finds out Todoroki is ridiculously ticklish and has fun taking advantage of this knowledge.
Swimming in thoughts of him
“Shouto…” The name leaves his lips like a prayer and he wakes with a shudder, his clothes sticking to his skin uncomfortably, sweat licking down his body as he suddenly sits up on his bed.
Midoriya groans as the moving images of his dream linger around in his mind, vivid and colourful, like a movie playing before his eyes. A movie that he was more than a little embarrassed to want to watch on repeat.
Elsewhere
He can’t take it anymore, he can’t handle all this pain, all this suffering. Not when he’s had a taste of what it feels like to be… happy. Not when he’s learned what friends are and how much they help. Not when there’s someone out there who makes him feel like more than just a weapon, a possession. He can’t stay in this cold and dark place where everything around him burns. Is… Is that so wrong?
Snow Day
“It snowed last night!”
Todoroki blinked at him once, then another time, face as neutral as ever. Did he really just wake him up to tell him that? He could make it snow in his own room if he wanted. This was pointless. He was about to slam the door in Kirishima’s face, like he so desperately wanted to do, when the elevator dinged with the announcement of a new arrival.
Right Here
Direct sequel to Elsewhere
The walls are closing in around him, and he’s not sure if it’s the way his breaths are short that is making the room spin or if it’s the towering figure looming threateningly above him. He’s lying on the cold floorboards, hunched in on himself, hurting all over, body trembling violently in equal parts chilling cold, blinding rage and paralysing fear. Because when he looks up he sees nothing but fire, nothing but fury, disappointment and disgust, all burning bright red all around. But that’s not even the worst part.
Dancing to the Melody of Heartstrings
“K-Kacchan was the only one I’ve e-ever loved…” He pauses to take a gasping breath. “I still love him…”
“I know.” Uraraka sighs again, but this time it’s not exasperated as much as it is understanding and sympathetic. “Which is why you need to get out of here. Stop thinking about him and start moving on.”
Or the Dance AU no one asked for where Izuku is depressed about breaking up with Kacchan, so Uraraka takes him to a club to lift his spirits and he meets the guy who's going to keep his thoughts busy for far longer than he intended.
Sick Day
Direct Sequel to Snow Day
“Are you okay?” Todoroki whispered, trying not to rouse any more angry stares from the other students around them.
“’m fine…” Midoriya sniffled into yet another tissue, his green eyes taking on a glossy quality to it, half-lidded and red-rimmed.
Or Midoriya is sick and Todoroki doesn't quite know what to do! Just fluff and nothing more!
To Have And To Hold
Letter after letter, Izuku goes on a journey through Shouto's deepest feelings, a loving gesture that sends him to loved one after loved one until he meets the one he loves most once again.
Sugar Sweet
Drabble where Midoriya and Todoroki play the pocky game. That's all there is to it.
Bleeding Hearts
Soulmates are connections. As is in the name, it is a connection that goes as deep as the soul itself. Souls are shaped through life experiences. Brightened and nurtured by love and joy. Bent and broken by pain and misfortune. And that connection is etched somewhere on his body, in his soulmate’s handwriting: a keepsake, something that will let him know what bound them together by the string of fate.
You Can Leave Your Socks On
Shouto never thought he’d find a particular piece of clothing enticing. Clothes were just clothes. Pieces of fabric tailored this way or that to cover someone up, sometimes leaving peeks into the person’s skin. That all changed when Shouto walked into Izuku’s room...
Desperate For Your Touch
Shouto is hardly one step into their apartment when Izuku’s arms wrap around his neck, nails scraping against his scalp as he tangles his fingers into his hair. He couldn’t stop the small smile tugging at the corners of his lips if he wanted to, leaning down to press a kiss to Izuku’s temple before he buries his face in his neck. Shouto shudders when Izuku’s mouth closes around his collarbone, shuffling inside the rest of the way and closing the door behind them as his boyfriend starts to eagerly nibble at sensitive flesh.
Thirst
How in the ever-living hell was he hotter with freaking clothes on?
Watch as Midoriya Izuku stumbles through a series of embarrassing events he's not quite sure how he got himself into. All because he came to the sudden realisation that one of his best friends is a lot hotter than he previously thought. And that's not just because of his quirk, or the hot day.
The Crown Does NOT Make the Royal
It's princess Uraraka's 16th birthday, so of course princes from all kinds of kingdoms have come to not only congratulate her, but also try to win her hand. Among the many guests, however, is All Might, revered war hero and inspiring ruler, and Izuku wants nothing more than to go to that ball and maybe get a chance to meet him. He manages to somehow get in, but the princess has other plans for him and drops her tiara on his head and leaves him. Prince Todoroki Shouto mistakes him for her brother because of it. How? He has no idea. They look nothing alike.
Fire
“I want to deny you, is that okay?”
“Deny me?”
Izuku hums, leaving another peck on his neck.
Or Izuku decides to deny Shouto his release.
The Rises and Falls of Your Breaths
It all starts with a summer storm... Izuku and Shouto are together through thick and thin, through the happiness and the sadness, through everything life might throw their way. It might not always be as easy as they would like it to be, but that's just how relationships go, and theirs is no exception.
Just Out of Reach
Set in the same universe as Fire
Shouto is nothing if not a pleaser. It’s only natural that he would enjoy Izuku’s little noises, the way he voices his pleasure, blessing Shouto’s ears with the confirmation that he is in fact doing something right.
Izuku decides that Shouto's love for his voice might just be enough that he doesn't have to touch him at all.
Out of Sight, Out of (my) Mind
Sequel to Just Out of Reach
As hero work proves to be more and more demanding, finally getting a day off together seems to Izuku like the perfect opportunity to relearn the sensation of Shouto's skin beneath his fingers. But it just so happens that his hands might also be a little tied.A Heart's Desire
“It’s a quirk alright. Looks like a classic case of a love drug type quirk.”
“What makes you think that?” Izuku can’t really keep the bitter sarcasm completely out of his tone, trying to make himself wiggle out of Todoroki’s embrace rather than melt into it.
Or where Shouto gets hit by a quirk that makes him much more affectionate towards Izuku
Oh, The Horror
When the Dekusquad spends the Halloween night on a Haunted House of Horrors with a promise of everlasting memories, Izuku finds that they may really be everlasting nightmares. Who knew that the aspiring hero with a knack for getting himself in the worst kind of trouble couldn’t handle horror? Hiding his very hopeless and obvious crush on Todoroki proves to be difficult as Izuku cowers in fear while clinging to his friend for most of the night.
Sinergy
The guy twists on his heel as soon as Shouto hisses, wide green eyes filled with shame when they meet his. Shouto nearly flinches when the young man reaches for his arm, rubbing it gently with an apologetic smile before tilting his head slightly to one side. Wild green curls fall over those pools of jade and draw his attention to the dark freckles sprinkled all over his cheeks underneath them, Shouto’s vision blurring momentarily before focusing on full lips mouthing an apology.
First Encounters of the Awkward Kind
It is a fitting end for him, he thinks, someone who has not known warmth for as long as he can remember. Even so, Shouto did not imagine it would come so soon. Alone? Yes. During active duty? There was no other way for him. But only a few years into his career as a pro hero proper? Shouto always thought he would last at least a decade.
Or a story in which Shouto is saved from a really ironic death by a quirkless firefigther
Kiss Kiss You're My Love
“Did… did what exactly?”
Her head snaps up to look him in the eyes, a deep flush dusting over her cheeks before she covers her face with her hands and shakes her head violently. Strangely enough, Izuku is somewhat reminded of himself.
“I may have… Accidentally used my quirk on you.”
“Oh.” Izuku provides intelligently. “So, what should I be expecting?”
Or where Izuku gets hit by a quirk that throws him into the most embarrassing Shoujo manga tropes out there.
Satisfaction
When Shouto comes home, he is met with the adorable sight of Izuku standing by the door to greet him with a cheeky grin, swallowed up in one other of Shouto’s hoodies, a light blue one with a large white snowflake at the front pocket, and grey sweatpants much too long on his legs.
Last Chance
Shouto goes to Ashido for advice on how to confess to the person he loves. The gossip chain starts with Ashido. It always starts with Ashido. And When it gets back to Izuku, he decides that he needs to find him so that he can confess his own feelings before it's too late.
Achievement Unlocked: Converted
The Jock and Nerd trope has been turned on its head. How exactly? Well, one is a quiet kid with glasses and the other is part of the wrestling team, but as they say... never judge a book by its cover.
Santa Baby
Izuku went and got his time off one day early, so Shouto really couldn’t see him when he was still busy dealing with collateral.
Needless to say, he isn’t in the best of moods.
So, really, getting home to this was something he didn’t know he wanted but, good lord, it should have been at the very top of his wish list.
Or where Shouto comes home to a late Christmas gift...
The Struggle™
The Struggle™
When the person you're in love with is so painfully oblivious you have to resort to extreme measures to make them notice.
Or where Izuku gets desperate trying to get Shouto to realise his feelings for him run deeper than friendship.
A Little Bit of Heaven
Shouto finds out some more about about the world he really lives in all the while settling into his relationship with Izuku.
I ship it (way too hard)
Having lived most of his life immersed in the ways of the hero world, Izuku knew that people really liked to pair heroes off. When he was obsessed with just being a hero, he didn’t really understand it, but it only took him realising exactly how much he cared for his aforementioned best friend for him to kind of get the picture.
Or where Izuku ends up running a server dedicated to his and Shouto's ship.
Read Between The Lines
Throughout his first year of college, Izuku finds out a lot about himself. One of those things is that he is very, extremely, hopelessly gay for pretty boys with damn near impossible full heterochromia. And his plans to confess to his crush may just go a little awry.
A Kind Name For A Cursed Creature
The castle walls are cold and dark. Even on the days that the sun shines the brightest, Shouto can’t help but hide in the shadows that stretch across the walls, as if the very thought of stepping into the light might be painful.
A cursed prince consumed by darkness needs a light to shine through him to find his own.
Quest for Love
Izuku comes from a humble little village where everyone knows each other and traditions run deeply in their little community. Despite his wild dreams of becoming an adventurer as he grew up attached to his mother’s skirts, he had never really thought he would get to live them.
And yet, he finds himself on a quest for a flower with Prince Todoroki and things take a turn for the worst.
Behind The Screen
The little icon is a small image of a young man’s face surrounded by sparkly stars, the left half covered by a flowy, blood-red fabric. The part of his face that is uncovered is… quite beautiful, as cartoon drawings go. He has a pale complexion, silky-looking white hair—one of his anime boy weaknesses—and a soft grey eye paired with thin red lips.
Izuku narrows his eyes. “What is this?”
“An Otome.” Ochako smirks.
We Are The Only Ones Holding Ourselves Back
One of his best friends has just confessed to him. The person he likes has just confessed to him. Izuku should be happy... Yet all he seems to feel is like the world is about to crash around him...
Level Up
After getting together in High School, Shouto and Izuku follow into their lives together.
Sequel to Achievement Unlocked: Converted
Level Up: First Steps
The first time Izuku and Shouto from Achievement Unlocked: Converted are intimate.
Level Up: Reunited
After a tense few weeks, Izuku and Shouto from Achievement Unlocked: Converted have a passionate reunion.
Fake It Till You Make It
On a Saturday afternoon, Izuku is met with a dilemma.
Or the one where TodoDeku fake date in order to make Shouto's crush jealous. The thing is... it actually works.
Part Of Your World
After escaping from Behind The Screen of Izuku's phone, Shouto is now faced with integrating the real world. For that, Izuku is willing to go above and beyond to give him the best chance at a normal, real life.
Dark Times This Way Come
Class 3-A is tasked with creating a 45 minute Noir Film for their English class. Their knowledge of the genre is pretty much limited to the aesthetic and basic themes and it's as much of a mess as anyone might imagine it would be. At least everyone looks amazing while doing it.
Lost And Found
The sun is barely peeking above the horizon when Izuku comes to, fingers curling around the pillow he’s hugging to his chest as he takes in a few deep breaths, the soft covers wrapping around him like a lover’s embrace. Which reminds him…
Or the not-so-perfect morning after the perfect wedding.
Clashing Emotions
“It was an accident with a civilian. Dude says his quirk splits someone’s negative and positive emotions into two separate entities. Guess since the half’n’half was already kinda split, it just… well.” Kacchan gestures vaguely towards the Todorokis.
It's Exactly What It Looks Like
When Shouto and Izuku are both dragged to the same party by their respective friends with the intent of getting them to meet someone to 'have fun with', they end up helping each other by spending a few hours together in a locked room--to talk to each other. When they end up growing closer after this first encounter, a bet forms between them: who will break first and tell their friends they actually started dating?
Not All Guardian Angels Have Feathers
A powerful demon shackled by his rank, his will held hostage by his father's rule. A young child raised by exorcists, curiosity and smarts unmatched by anyone his age. Certainly, it can only be a match made in Hell, one that will either destroy them or bind them together by more than just fate.
Soul of a Song
A favourite song can say a lot about a person.
A soulmate AU in which soulmates can sometimes hear the other's favourite song in their head. For as long as he can remember, Izuku has only heard one song.
Sinking Under
Being a merman born with defective fins, Izuku was left with not much to do but wander, and from a young age, he had always been warned by his mother not to get too close to humans because of it too. But when a human falls down a cliff and into the sea on a particularly stormy night, despite his shortcomings, Izuku has no other choice but to help in any way he can.
Lost in a Dream
For as long as society can remember, soulmates had been a constant, unexplainable variable part of everyone’s life. No matter how far apart, those who shared such a connection would find each other in their dreams. Whenever the darkness of sleep took them over and they found themselves surrounded by the worlds of their subconscious’ making, they would be led to a place only they could share.
Izuku's soulmate never showed up at their place.
Mew Have Cat To Be Kitten Me
Izuku likes cats. Izuku also likes Todoroki. But Todoroki acting like a cat? Izuku doesn't really know how to feel about that.
Love Yourself
When Shouto is hit by a quirk that makes him love the person he hates the most, Izuku is left reeling from the unbearable ache that settles in his chest.
Fit for a Queen
“As you may or may not be aware… This wouldn’t be a western-style bachelor party without a little something.” Behind Denki, Kirishima snickers and Bakugou rolls his eyes. Shouto’s stomach drops slightly. “That something, my good friend, is obviously strippers. Well, stripper, in this case.”
“Denki—” Shouto starts, already feeling beyond uncomfortable by the notion alone.
“Oh, don’t worry, my Queen! I thought of everything to make this enjoyable for you. I went ahead and hired your favourite hero.” He winks.
The Other Side of The Veil
Death’s doors have been described as a multitude of scenarios: light at the end of a tunnel, loved ones waiting on the other side with open arms and smiling faces, one’s life flashing before their eyes and playing out like a movie… Izuku feels like his movie wouldn’t have been very noteworthy, a life lived quietly on the side-lines, regardless of it being his choice or not, always the background character no one pays attention to.
Major Character Death isn't technically permanent because of the existence of an Afterlife
It'll Be Fun
After revealing that he has never celebrated Halloween before, Shouto is dragged to a Halloween party organised by class 3A as a way to celebrate on their last year together, and Izuku picks out his costume.
Read With Me
Izuku starts hearing a smooth voice inside his head one day and thinks something is very wrong, until he realises... that's his soulmate. Their connection is quite the unique one, at least Izuku would certainly call hearing it recited at him whenever he is reading a book a unique soulmate connection. From what he hears, his soulmate doesn't read a lot of fun things, or any at all, really. Surely, their connection must be so he can fix that.
The Comfort of Your Touch
At the time, they were nothing more than a soldier and his commander, his Prince. But travelling together, side by side for so long, witnessing parts of one another that no others had ever been so close to understand… It certainly changed things.
Prince Todoroki Shouto seeks the comfort of Izuku's embrace when his demons haunt his dreams.
My Pet
Shouto comes home to find Izuku in a rather compromising position and decides it fit to teach him why he shouldn't engage in such activities without him.
All The Words Necessary
A fan confuses Shouto for an adult industry lookalike, his roommate seems to be more than a little familiar with his work, and apparently misunderstandings can happen when feelings seem more obvious to one than the other.
Cursed Blessings
There was a time, long ago, when gods listened to human’s prayers. The fabrics between the realms were thinner then, and beings such as the celestials held the power to traverse from one to another, to preform feats befitting of awe amongst those who were around to bear witness. Many thought them perfect, untouchable creatures better than humans in every sense, capable of wielding forces unfathomable to those around them.
I'm Fine
“Are you okay?”
“Yeah, it’s just a sneeze, Izuku. Probably just allergies or something.” Shouto waves his hand dismissively, returning to his tea and gesturing with his head for Izuku to eat as well when he continues staring.
Or the one where Shouto is obviously really sick and keeps insisting he's okay, despite continuously catching fire.
A Sight For Sore Eyes
After a man breaks a witch's heart, she curses his entire male lineage to suffer excruciating pain when gazing upon the face of the one they love. Generations later, Izuku is a boy too quick to fall in love and suffering for the sins of his ancestor, cursed to hurt those he loves with the pain he feels by just looking their way. His only choice seems to be to live away from everyone, but it seems fate has other plans.
Another Step to the Future
Planning to launch a fashion collection to break away from his father's influence and be free to live his life how he wants it, young star Todoroki Shouto models Ashido Mina's newest mini collection after his photographer and secret boyfriend Midoriya Izuku introduces them in hopes of kick-starting their work relationship.
No Rest For The Wicked
Shouto’s name claws out of him in a scream that scratches his throat raw, finally the energy of One for All bursting through him, now that it’s too late, shattering the remnants of the ice that held around his torso as he leaps towards the rubble and lifts it in a fit of despair. His muscles lock at the sight of a hand surrounded by blood—so much blood, not again, not again, please not him—and his entire world comes crashing down around him, threatening to bring him to his knees once again.
Echo
Not trusting his voice not to crack miserably, Izuku gives him a little nod that turns into a shake of his head about halfway through. How is he supposed to be okay? The literal man of his dreams is literally standing right in front of him, fussing over him while blushing like a maiden after the absolutely lecherous activities they have engaged in more than once in his head.
Or a fic where soulmates exist and Izuku thinks he doesn't have one... until he almost literally steps out of his dreams.
In Your Arms
When there is only one bed in their hotel room when they go to a Hero Convention together, Shouto and Izuku decide there is nothing wrong with it. Though, they end up discovering a hidden comfort in sharing a bed when Shouto's past haunts his dreams mercilessly.
Lazy Sunday
Shouto and Izuku indulge in each other's touch on a lazy sunday afternoon after a dumb quiz sparks a stupid conversation.
From the same universe as Achievement Unlocked: Converted.
A Promise for the Future
Izuku and Shouto have a date on Christmas Eve.
