Summary
Midoriya Izuku was a great volleyball player. His quick thinking and strength make him well known in the youth club volleyball community. But once he aged out, he decided to step away from the game and focus on college instead. Now, he's a student at UA University going into his sophomore year. He's built up a group of friends and volunteers for his old club when he can. But when his club coach, Shouta Aizawa, accepts a job as an assistant coach for UA's boys volleyball team, he offers Izuku a full ride scholarship to come with him and play for the team. There's just one problem. Bakugo Katsuki is their star player. The explosive outside hitter has a serious grudge against Izuku and the resulting conflict threatens to tear the team apart.
The future becomes twisted as the past comes to light and they struggle to be the last team standing on the court, and maybe learn something about themselves as they go.
Or
slow burn where izuku and katsuki are volleyball players with a complicated history and find themselves on the same team in college. They figure out how to not be enemies and realize that they might want to be more.

A Certain Type of Hero by quite_a_sight

Summary
The last time Bakugou saw Izuku Midoriya was the day he threw his notebook out the window.
He didn't think about it. Not when he was the only person in his school to get into UA, the school of his dreams. Not when villains started attacking, not when he was kidnapped, and not when he and his class were called to fight in war. Not when he passed his second and third years and finally graduated. And especially not when he threw his hero license in the back of his closet and swore he would never be good enough to be a hero. He didn't think of Izuku Midoriya when the new "University Sidekick Program" that required all heroes obtain a college degree in either social work or criminology was introduced and watched Kirishima and his friends sign up for their courses.
But when he stumbles upon the coffee shop that Izuku frequents, he's faced suddenly with the opportunity he never thought he'd get. The opportunity to make things right. The only problem is that Kirishima has stumbled into Izuku as well. As Bakugou watches his best friend and his childhood friend spark up a romance he wonders if he will be able to make things right with his past and keep his friendships that he's worked so hard to maintain.

Useless Monster by MuteCrows (Deanassbutts)

Summary
Izuku had vague memories of how his family used to be. He could remember when he had a home, a warm bed, and steady diet. These memories were muddled, overshadowed by the burden of no longer having a place in society’s unseeing eyes. For where was a monster like himself supposed to fit into a judgmental space like that?

Summary
Midoriya Izuku just wants to lead a quiet, peaceful life. This is foiled by the fact that a) he can see spirits, b) his good nature demands that he help anyone he sees in trouble, and c) he, by all rights, should not exist.
Helping the heroes who have fallen victim to the new quirk-breaking drug is a terrible idea for many reasons, the first and most important being that he hates attention and avoids it like the plague. But he's the only one who can help, so he does.
This is, Izuku decides as he breaks in, more trouble than it's worth.

Summary
“A quirk? What exactly does it do?,” Yaoyorozu asked and Katsuki silently nodded his respect at her for asking the important questions.
“We’re not exactly sure yet, the only accurate information we have is that it messes with your personality,” Aizawa explained. “In this case, Midoryia is a little…well—.”
“He’s an asshole,” Katsuki sneered. Aizawa sighed.
“Guess that makes two of us huh, Kacchan,” Izuku replied and Katsuki could hear the mischief in his damn voice.
Katsuki rolled his eyes. “The difference is I’m always supposed to be the asshole, not you.”

Summary
Izuku has a “dissociation” Quirk that lets his ghost leave his body, and it’s both convenient and inconvenient at the same time. Either way, he's going to do whatever it takes to become a hero.
