Meet You There by FlareLunari

Summary: Izuku is ecstatic when he's invited to HeroCon to talk about his quirk theory book. Even though he himself is quirkless, he never let go of his nerdy tendencies when it came to heroes. A wardrobe malfunction forces him to borrow his friend's clothes, even though he's mortified.

Katsuki doesn't even want to listen to this lame ass speech, but his fellow pro heroes don't let him leave. Little does he know he's in for the surprise of a lifetime, because that nerdy professor speaking? That's his fucking childhood friend he used to bully. And damn if he didn't grow up hot. Too bad he probably hates his guts.

Home by xRachii

Summary: After a few months of dating, Katsuki had convinced Izuku to move in with him and it was the best decision of his life. While he was happy being the number one hero, coming home to Izuku waiting for him with a bright smile completely changed his outlook on life. He now understood what his mom had said to him as he got older: “While it might be nice out there saving and changing the world, nothing could ever beat coming home to someone you love, Katsuki. That’s how I feel every time I come home to your father. He is love, safety, and he is also home. I hope you will be able to find your home some day.”

{One Shot}

The Number One Prize by The_Last_Swablu

Summary: Kacchan is the world's number one hero. He's stronger than anyone, the envy of heroes and hero wannabe's across the globe. He also happens to be in possession of something else many envy: the world's number one wife: Midoriya Izuku.

So what if Katsuki dropped the guy some money, and so what if he was accidentally developing a crush on the guy.

This was fine.

Its fine.

After all its not like the guy is gonna send Katsuki a message-

Oh no, is that a notification sound?

Rated - Mature

slow show by rulesforlovers

Summary: He wondered what Izuku thought of the moving scenery, if it felt familiar or not, or if it was a world of both to him. He with his mother had moved overseas, the tenants of his complex said. That was around Katsuki's second year of high school.

Katsuki's turning thirty in a few months.

(-sometimes, sometimes Katsuki wished he'd had done things differently when he was a brat. But the young asshole had been egoistic, fearing failure, fearing what he did not understand, fearing what cog would not fit in his version of the world.)

{One Shot}

Rated - Mature

Toy-cchan! by TurtleExplodes

Summary: Quirkless fanboy Deku gives in and buys himself a Pro Hero Dynamight themed sex toy, just to relive some stress (and totally not because he’s still in love with his now super attractive childhood friend). He and the blond haven’t crossed paths since middle school so there was nothing to worry about, but that all changes when the burly hero comes banging at his door one afternoon.

— — —

OR Quirkless twink Deku gets his pussy pounded by buff as fuck Pro Hero Dynamight.

{One Shot}

Rated - Explicit

twin stars by TheFifthCharmedOne

Summary: “Well, my ideal partner would be intelligent, kind, friendly, attractive, charismatic…” Izuku bit his lip harshly, trying not to be disappointed, as none of those things described him. “They’d also be a big fan of All Might, flexible enough to handle my hectic schedule, okay with spicy food, enjoy casual nights in rather than fancy restaurants…”

Wait.

What.

{One Shot}

Rated - Mature

Be Grateful by MnstrCutie

Summary: Izuku is discovered by a familiar face and after years of living on the run, alone and hurt and fearful, he's given the opportunity to change all of that. He accepts and he's very grateful.

Sweetness by Mikacrispy

Summary: Pro Hero Bakugou Katsuki changes his working hours for the graveyard shift and struggles to keep himself awake. Lucky for Bakugou, the heavens send him an angel in the form of a sexy barista with the chubby cheeks of cherub and a fat ass made by God himself. Now, talking to Deku is the best part of Ground Zero's night.

The nightclub by @silverynight

Summary: From the shadows, someone knocks the man out.

Izuku recognizes the hero suit even before the blond walks into the light completely. Dynamight is a lot taller in person.

"Sorry to steal all the fun, but I got really pissed at him," he huffs, grimacing at the unconscious man on the ground before smirking at Izuku. "You were handling it pretty well... for a nerd."

He adds the last bit after noticing Izuku's All Might shirt...

"Thank you, Dynamight," Izuku mumbles then, feeling himself blush. The truth is that he's one of his favorite pro heroes, but he's not going to say that to him. Not after being called nerd.

Actions Speak Louder by TsunaidaMay

Let Me Assist You Personally by Seeress

Summary: Izuku is long-suffering Personal Assistant to #1 Pro Hero Dynamight.

Dynamight can't keep a PA to save his career. They all quit crying after a few days weeks. Enter: Izuku—with enough money problems to brave the jaws of the cranky beast. Childhood friend turned glorified paid slave. Somehow it all works out.

‘Kill them with kindness’, his mom had told him once. If that were true, Bakugou Katsuki would be stone-cold dead by now.

The Scoop by MJBunnyLuv

Summary: Izuku Midoriya...

Quirkless ✅

Nerd ✅

Award Winning Journalist ✅

Completely enthralled by heroes and everything they do, Izuku has made it his life's mission to show everyone exactly who these icons are behind the costumes. From battling stereotypes to giving heroes a chance to be silly and let loose a bit, Izuku covers it all. He's made some friends in the community, interviewed some of his biggest idols, and even accepted awards he never thought he'd win. But there's one interview he's been avoiding ever since he came on the scene...Dynamight -AKA Katsuki Bakugou- his childhood friend turned bully, and newly named Number 1 Hero. Surely, Izuku can avoid him forever, right?

thinking about that post of people assuming ao3 has an algorithm and also about how bonkers persistent the view is that ao3 is social media lite. like with startling regularity I get comments saying something along the lines of "it's probably weird to comment on a fic this old--" no it isn't!!!! this is an archive I am literally just assuming you searched for a selection of specific tags or sorted by kudos or looked back on my pseud or any other number of completely normal ways to use an archive site ?? kill the tiktok ghost in your brain and comment on old stuff it's NOT weird

Ao3 is actually massively culturally important and very very good at being what it is. I’m so serious when I say that ao3 needs to be protected as the anti censorship, by fans for fans, nonprofit, volunteer run, expertly designed archival site that it is. You don’t have to read or like fanfiction to understand that on principle, ao3 is a site that should be defended.

#personal #ao3 #archive of our own #fanfiction #fandom #anti censorship #not to suck ao3 off but I’m sucking ao3 off bc I’ve lived through other fic sites and no one does it like they do

Please, for the love of god, please don’t be this person. No matter how long it’s been since an update, no matter how many unfinished stories are sitting on their account, no matter what - do not be this person.

Not only is it insanely rude, but you also do more damage than you think be being such a self-entitled ass about something someone created for free and for fun. “This author” can see what you say.

RIP decency indeed.

“why would you write fics for small, unpopular fandoms? you’re not gonna reach that many hits in fandoms not many people know about” ?? because I’m not writing fics for hits or kudos, I’m writing them for me because these characters are my blorbos and I have so many ideas, so much thoughts about them that my brain might explode if I don’t write them out.

You guys are commenting on the fics you read right? You’re at least leaving kudos on the Astarion smut and the pairs that have less than 20 fics for them too? You’re bookmarking stories you really like that are still being updated and ones that haven’t been touched in over a year right?

You know that even the smallest interactions are like cocaine to fic writers right? You understand how important a string of emoji hearts left behind on chapter at three am is right?? Right????

You’re treating AO3 like a community and not a content factory….right?

Inalienable Conquers by Sado1158

Summary: Izuku was on a mission to observe, catalog, and study the planet Alara along with a small group of researchers and guards. He was brought on this mission as a last resort, an afterthought, compared to his comrades. He was the only doctor in the association to have been to Alara before, so it was just easier to add him to the group rather than get another doctor. He was the only one who understood the native wildlife and its anatomy. Most days it seemed like he was the only one who cared.Especially when it came to his Kacchan.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but as a creator -

I am fine with "the audience" -

downloading my fics

printing my fics

copy/pasting or screenshotting my fics

sharing your saved copy of my fics with anyone else who might want them in the unlikely but never impossible case that my fics are no longer available on ao3

making a book of my fic(s) and running your fingers across the pages while lovingly whispering my precioussss

doing these things with anything I create for fandom, such as meta, headcanons, au nonsense like 'texts from the brodinsons,' etc

I am not fine with "the audience"

doing any of the above with the purpose/intent of plagiarizing my work or passing it off as their own in any capacity

feeding my work into ai for any reason whatsoever

Save the fandom things. Preserve the fandom things. Respect the fandom things.

Enjoy the fandom things.

#fanfic #ao3 #archive of our own #fandom things #tumblr things #i may have said this at some point #i'm sure i have #but whatever - just in case #i don't say this with the presumption that i'm so amazing and people are clamoring to save my fics #but just if anyone is so inclined that's all #ftr i don't intend on ever removing my fics from ao3 or deleting fandom things from this blog #i've always shared my fandom things with the intent of keeping them shared bc that's the whole point of posting #but the fandom atmosphere and ao3 constantly being under attack who knows what can happen #not that this applies to anyone but should all else fail you can also reach out to me and i will personally give you a copy #at least of fics bc i save everything #not so much the tumblr things but this is a good reminder to myself that i should do that for the things i care about #that i've made or done and only posted here #anyway sorry i have now used up my quota of the putting words into sentences doing for today #i have plans to stare into the void now

want your favorite author to update but don’t want to be too pushy in their comment section?

here’s 5 things you can do to encourage them:

Reblog their fic link on tumblr (bonus if it’s with tags)

Bookmark the fic with a note about what you’re excited about/love in the fic

Recommend the fic to your friends or local discord channel

Draw art or create other media for the fic (as indicated by the author’s comfort level)

Leave them a comment when re-reading about the parts of the chapter/story that stood out to you the second time

#this isn’t about me #this is just what I think a lot of authors would appreciate #more than the ‘update soon!!!’ comments #fic #fanfic #fanfiction #ao3 #archive of our own #writing things #writing #reading things #reading #tips and tricks

I think it's mean how some people talk about fics on AO3.

'Oh you gotta wade through literal trash to find the good stuff'.

Were you not a beginner once? Did you not write crack fic or self indulgent things for your own entertainment?

Maybe don't speak that way about your fellow fic writers? Just because some fics aren't as polished as others, or involve fetishes and tropes you don't enjoy, or are not the style you want your fics to be doesn't mean they're trash.

It's a horrible thing to say and beginners are going to be discouraged from writing knowing that their fics might be considered trash because they're just starting out.

#on fanfiction #archive of our own #ao3 #fanfiction #this is inspired by a lot of the posts i see floating around that talk about fics like that #*i* dont read everything either #but you can say this is not for me without insulting the fics #(also mutuals this is not directed at any of you im not vaguing anyone on my dash)#these posts have existed for years
