Summary
Its sinuous black spirals loomed over the fields like a thunderstorm.
Its leaves murmured secrets.
Beneath its canopy they lay and breathed. Hundreds of people, familiar people, forgotten people.
They were alive. But they shoudln’t be.

Summary
“It's always an incident, Big Blue. Or a distraction. Or a moment of calm when you all let your guard down. Batman has protocols for a reason. Follow them!”
Superman blushed. "We try, but..."
"But?"
"Some people are a little reluctant..."
Nightwing looked at him, shocked. "They'd rather have Batman kidnapped by some strange alien queen than listen to him?"
Superman shrugged even more, in a somewhat unsuccessful attempt to make himself look smaller. "They were sirens this time. Circe..."
"I don't care if they were sirens, fairies, or something else, Big Blue! How is it possible that every time there's a League mission, Batman ends up kidnapped?"
(Dick is tired of the perverts trying to kidnap his dad, and how the Justice League did nothing to prevent it.)

Summary
"I'm hallucinating now," Damian muttered to himself, as the boy stared at him, uncertainly, "Mhm, pretty sure I'm not a hallucination."
"That's what a hallucination would say, Richard," he said, knowing he sounded petulant. Whatever the Galra had given him to keep him quiet, it was stronger than many of the drugs he had become accustomed to during his training with the League of Assassins.
It was only for this reason that he risked falling forward. Fortunately for him, he was promptly grabbed by the boy. It was a strong, solid grip, and definitely not a hallucination.
Damian looked up, meeting eyes that reminded him of a dead man, and the other said, "You confused me with another person. My name is not Richard. It's Lance."
(During his imprisonment on an alien ship, after sacrificing himself to save Earth, Damian meets a boy who reminds him terribly of his dead brother. He can't be who he believes, but the resemblance is striking, and Damian just wants to believe that something left by Dick Grayson still exists.)

Summary
"Why?" the man asked, his eyes still inhuman, feline. "I can manage the mission report from here. It won't take long."
"Why?" Dick croaked, feeling on the verge of a nervous breakdown. "Oh, I don't know, maybe because you're not in a position to be around anyone? You're naked, Bruce."
"So?" Bruce replied, using one hand to lick himself, Christ, and pass it over his cheek. Definitely, his manners were still too cat-like. Jason gave Zatanna a dirty look, "You said the spell would fix everything!"
Zatanna, however, did not answer. She too was too busy staring at the ... mhm... Wayne package. God, Jason needed bleach to erase that mental image.
"Zatanna!" Dick repeated, and the sorceress finally seemed to remember that she was not alone. She coughed, slightly red, "It looks like a side effect. Nothing to worry about, really. It will return to normal..."
Bruce was trying to take off his jacket. Jason had to force it back on her, "When?! Zatanna, when?!"
"After... two days... maybe..."
(Bruce is transformed into a cat. It's all fun and games until he becomes human again, and he has decided that Clark must be his. Jason didn't sign up for it.)

Summary
“So we'd be using him as a guinea pig? Yeah, no, bad idea.”
“I'm just saying he would benefit from…”
“Oh, stop it, Clark. You are not his family,” Dick snapped, "I won't torture Bruce for your unhealthy need to always be a hero!”
Clark was stunned, as if he couldn't believe Dick, of all people, was speaking to him that way. Dick, who since he was a child had always looked up to Superman as a role model, who had shaped Nightwing as much by the legacy of Batman as Superman.
The Kryptonian's gaze hardened, "I love him more than any of you ever have.”
(Bruce has little time left. Clark and Dick cope, or rather, don't cope, with the loss the best way they know how.)

Compliance by Getting1ASomeMuchNeededTherapy_Stan (Zanchev)
Fandom Compliance Verse - Fandom, 僕のヒーローアカデミア | Boku no Hero Academia | My Hero Academia (Anime & Manga)
25 Jul 2025
Summary
Of course he knows he’s a pawn. He’s far too intelligent to not have figured that one out. But, still, he complies. He follows along because who else does he have? He’s abandoned, Quirkless, functionally useless to civilian society. At least this way he can be as close as possible to his childhood dreams of heroism.
___
Midoriya Izuku is many things; Quirkless, an Asset, a tool to be used by the Commission. One thing he thought he never could be, one thing that he wanted to be above all else, was a Hero.
And then the Commission sent him to UA.

what doesn't kill you by daylightbreaks

Summary
Logically, Akaguro Chizome had seen enough as the vigilante Stendhal to expect both anything and nothing at the same time. It still didn’t prepare him for when they brought in a child, though. And it certainly didn’t prepare him for when the Doctor dropped the boy off in his cell afterwards along with a first aid kit and told Chizome to take care of him.
Or; Chizome and Izuku are taken to be test subjects for Doctor Garaki’s quirk experiments. The events that result from this are nothing like what anybody expects. Still, Izuku wants nothing more than to be a hero, even with an ex-vigilante as his new dad.

Summary
All Might’s new successor was kidnapped by Humarise. All for One’s son was kidnapped by Humarise. Aizawa witnesses a reckless kid get kidnapped by Humarise. None of them know that they’re looking for the same person, even though they just teamed up to find him.
OR: The last movie was a great excuse to write about Izuku being kidnapped by a cult that worships quirkless people.

Summary
“I’m sorry,” Izuku called out, head held high as he glanced at the results. “Did this assessment only test our quirk usage?”
Aizawa-sensei smirked and Izuku felt his heart drop.
- -Midoriya had made it. He fought tooth and nail to make it through life. He fought the stupid robots at the entrance exam and won. He fought for his right to be a hero, even when everyone had told him it was impossible.
But with two simple, final words from his ex-homeroom teacher at UA, Midoriya’s hard work meant nothing. Would only ever equate to a pipe dream.
All because he was Quirkless.
OR: Aizawa expels Midoriya on the first day of school. Midoriya goes to work in the Underground.
