Fandom: Batman/Lois & Clark/MCU Crossover
Title: New World, Same Old Problems
Author: RavenclawAngel
Pairing: None
Rating: Unrated
Word Count: 43,309
Series: Part 1 of Steve Rogers: Man out of Time and Place (Words: 93,680 - Works: 3)
Summary:
The battle in Siberia does not go as planned. Now Steve Rogers has to face his sentence: Exile to Earth B. Let him be somebody else's problem from now on, according to General Ross. For his part, Steve isn't sure what to make of his new home or its inhabitants, but it's better than camping.
Fandom: Boku no Hero Academia
Title: Pied Piper
Author: Blackholeca
Pairing: Aizawa Shouta/Shirakumo Oboro/Yamada Hizashi (background)
Rating: Teen
Word Count: 297,091
Summary:
If they wouldn’t give him a chance then the solution seemed simple, he’d give himself one. He’d force the world to see him, force them to recognize his hard work. He wasn’t missing a quirk, it was simply that everyone else had been given an advantage. He wasn’t broken, or useless, or incapable, and he’d prove it by outrunning all of them, he who was quirkless, he who had started in last.
[UA rejects Midoriya from the hero course and he finds salvation in vigilantism.]
Fandom: Boku no Hero Academia
Title: damage control
Author: yamadadzawa (liarielle)
Pairing: None
Rating: Teen
Word Count: 6,741
Summary:
Midoriya turns to Shouta, gripping his hand in a fist despite his clearly broken finger, and boldly declares that he’s still standing, that he doesn’t need to be rescued this time.
Shouta can’t help it. He shouldn’t, damn it, he shouldn’t encourage this, not when the kid is displaying a frankly disturbingly high pain tolerance. But he can’t help it. A feral grin stretches across his face.
Maybe Hizashi is right, and it does pay off to be an optimist, because it looks like Midoriya Izuku might not be skydiving towards his fate after all. This kid can learn. He can be saved.
-----
Or:
Midoriya isn't surprised to see his name in last place on Aizawa's quirk test, and believes that he deserves to be expelled. He's not expecting to be wrong, and he's definitely not expecting to have friends who don't hesitate to stand up for him.

When a violent turf war breaks out between rival villain gangs, a civilian is caught in the crossfire and killed, and the Number One Hero Endeavor is called to quell the fighting and restore peace.

Staring at a trembling boy before him, All Might knows what he would've wanted someone to tell him if he'd asked the Number One Hero if he could've been a Quirkless hero. And if that notebook he signed was anything to go by, a little help from Nedzu and the boy might even surpass him.
