    Summary

    When he was first appointed as the Princess’ guard, Link did not know what lay ahead. Top of his class, and widely considered the most capable swordsman in Hyrule, he assumed that he would live a comfortable life following the Princess around until she became the Queen, if his retirement did not come first. What he did not expect was the extraordinary and all-consuming adventure that came to be.

    And it all began with the words, "Oh, Link. I'm home."

    (Or, Link finally starts to realise how he feels about Zelda after she returns from what he assumed would be an eternal fate as a dragon. Brave enough to save Hyrule (twice), but not enough to confront his feelings head-on.)

    Summary

    There is a cat that roams the grounds of Yuuei. No one is quite sure how it got there, nor where it came from. There are things, however, that the students of 1-A know. Facts that are undeniable, that are known and understood well. Five simple facts that make up the basis of this cat.

    The most important one? The cat has an Empathy Quirk, which allows it to feel the emotions of those nearby. She roams the grounds, looking for sad students in need of comfort.
    But she seems to have found one to keep.
    One Izuku Midoriya.

    Or: 5 times 1-A knows Izuku is sad, and one time Izuku finds out that his peers know (and that maybe, just maybe, that's okay).

    Summary

    The flashing colors on television had always caught Izuku’s eye. All Might’s death was only known to a few people. These two things, somehow, were related. A quick snap of a picture and the seething silence that even crows would start to caw in. The flashing lightning that was now permanently scribbled around him was what caught the television’s eye. The power, the glory—the nameless face of a vigilante gone wild.

    You’ll get caught, Some of them said to him, quietly, like a swishing mantra. You’ll get caught, Ninth.

    Sometimes he hoped he did.

    (or: after one for all is desperately passed on in all might’s last moments, a boy becomes a vigilante, struggling to find reality amongst the new ghosts in his head.)

    Summary

    “What did—what did they do, Deku?” He feels like he’s talking to a kindergartener or something. For all the bullying and insults, he’s never talked down on the nerd like this. He hates it, but he hates the fact that Deku doesn’t seem to notice it even more.
    “Nothin’ big. Hit me a few times. Asked if they should, if I thought they should wake you up. Said no.” The nerd pauses, and the moment drags on. He sucks in a breath through his teeth, the sound whistling and thin. “Wanted to let you sleep.”
    Katsuki lets out a humorless bark of laughter.
    “Wha’s so funny?” Deku squints at him through his one working eye.
    “My hero,” Katsuki says. “Of course you fuckin’ told them to let me sleep. God."
    --
    or, the one where a kidnapping is all it really takes to get the vestiges of one for all to come out and play.

    Summary

    When Inko dies in a trainwreck while protecting Izuku from the impact, Izuku discovers he had a quirk all along. The ability to inherit the quirks of people that die is, to say the least, problematic. It sends Izuku on a much different track that he ever imagined his life taking, but will hopefully end up exactly where he needs to be.
