a gun to his head (and he bares his teeth) by illu_gremlins

Summary
If the world is riddled with monsters, Izuku Midoriya is the Titan; he is an eldritch horror rippled in lake waters, a hollow stone where there should be his beating heart.
If the world is riddled with victims, Izuku Midoriya is a harlequin amongst jesters; he is fated to ridicule, discrimination and hatred; fated to grief, pity and cessation. Be it by his own hands or the hands or those of the monsters he lives amongst.
Look at him, the star of the pity party, the worst of the worst. The final hostage, with a gun to his head, a knife to his throat, and a smile made of teeth.
Death's favourite child.
Be an audience member to the show of this bastardised runt, and watch him unravel.
(Will he learn to live, or survive?)
✑✑✑
Izuku’s cynical, sarcastic and tired.
My Hero Academia if Izuku stayed quirkless.
A rewrite.

Summary
As he falls, he lets himself think about it. He lets himself think that if he wakes up, if things go back again, it means that he does have a quirk. It means he really can take a swan dive off a roof and hope for better luck in his next life. It means that all along, he’s been useless and worthless because he hasn’t died yet.
He hits the ground.
And then he opens his eyes.
(vigilante!izuku AU where izuku has a quirk that rewinds time when he dies)

Summary
It was true that his story never felt truly finished, but being reborn centuries from his own age, stripped of all familiarity, felt like another punishment rather than a second chance.
or
Midoriya Izuku is Shinazugawa Sanemi’s reincarnation.

Summary
"I’m only two minutes late!” Izuku protested. Had he missed the start of an important test? None of the national, standardized tests were supposed to happen this month and even being two minutes late to one of those wouldn’t elicit this sort of reaction. They were discussing their career interest forms today, but that was it. Nothing time-critical was supposed to be happening.
“Midoriya, you were reported missing a week ago. No one has seen you for eight days. The police have been combing the city for you.”
"I’m sorry. What?”
Midoriya Izuku went missing for a week and turned up in a back alleyway with skills he's never even heard of and no memory of how he came by them. He resigns himself to never learning the truth of what happened to him, but he shouldn't waste this chance should he? He could become a hero with reflexes like these.

Summary
“Midoriya also wants to go to Yuuei.”
At this statement, Izuku’s classmates mocked him and on any other day, he would have taken it. But getting hit with a quirk while watching a villain fight before school changes the scenario.
In which Izuku’s class learns you don’t need a quirk to take someone down a peg.
Slow updates.
