Fears

by murderofkrows

The artificial vocal cords are perfect for hero work. It's exactly what he needs, a device that would allow him to mimic voices, ensuring more villains were tricked into responding to him. But he just can't get over how much it looks like the muzzle of his childhood.Hitoshi is afraid of it.

Finding your Voice

by Dainn

Late night hoots

by BoredPanda

All kids dream of a cool quirk, a loving family and a happily ever after.But not everyone gets to live that dream.At the age of 4, Midoriya Izuku gets his quirk - but loses his mother. Or at least, he loses a part of her.Afraid of his quirk, Midoriya Inko registers her son as quirkless and refuses to acknowledge it's existence. Whenever she sees anything related to his quirk, she makes it disappear. Filing nails, telling her son not to speak for a while, making him turn on the lights when he is in the same room as her at night, she lives in denial.Midoriya Hisashi tries to be the best husband and father he can be. But when the two things oppose each other, he has to choose. Sometimes he chooses one, sometimes the other. Sometimes he chooses ignorance - but sometimes, he chooses to run.After a particularily stressful day, Izuku can't take it anymore. It's up to our favourite hobo dad to save the little bird, and what better way to do that than abducting him (with the kids approval of course)!

Oh! But arson!(vigilante Deku)

by Cuddlegirl

Deku is a feared vigilante. All hero's know his name and shudder at the thought of dealing with him. They fear him even though he has not actually killed a single person. The boy is best known for his skills in gathering information and setting buildings on fire. That's really all Nezu needed to know about the boy. He immediately started his plan to bring the boy to UA. He'd make a hero out of this pyromaniac of a vigilante.

Not alone

by ShadowNight

Spiteful Idol

by Anonymous

“I can afford whatever I want because I have a part-time job, dumbass.” Kacchan sneers. “W-w-wait. Kacchan, you don’t mean... It’s not the same job as before, right?!” Izuku’s face is red to his roots, hand raised to his mouth as though the loose cage of his fingers might cradle the impact of his words. “Of course it is. Why the hell would I find another job when I’m already the best at this one?” “Oh.” Izuku’s voice is more of a squeak. OR: Canon!Katsuki moonlights as a model for cash. Also, he’s deaf. Also, he’s trans (but don’t worry, he doesn’t know the last part yet).

Bakugou v Near Expulsion

by lightning_anon

Bakugou really didn't expect to be pulled aside by his homeroom teacher on the first day of school. Who knew not replying to emails he received about his hearing loss over the summer was that big of a deal?-Or: Bakugou is hard of hearing. He's also struggling with the biggest load of internalized ableism Aizawa's ever seen.

Code for Love

by Felicity_7

“What does it mean?” Shouta frowns slightly, chewing on his slice of pie.“Hm?”“That. That...thing your mother just did.”“What? Um, refilling our cups? Signing to me?”“No, no, I know all of that already. I meant...the tapping. This.” Shouta sighs frustratedly, leaning forward to deliver three quick, successive taps to the top of his hand. Hizashi’s heart jumps.“I always see them doing it when we’re over, and I think I remember them doing it, sometimes, when we were younger too, but I don’t know of any JSL signs like that. Is it some sort of code? What does it mean?”“......Here.” Gently, Hizashi reaches across the table and takes Shouta’s hand in his.“Like this, not too quickly.” Three squeezes. He smiles affectionately at Shouta.“It means, ‘I love you’.” And Shouta’s face flushes red.

Bakugou v Denial

by lightning_anon

Aizawa meets with Bakugou to discuss accommodations due to being hard of hearing. Bakugou is... less than forthcoming about his needs and Aizawa struggles to figure out how to advocate for his student, versus to speak over him completely.

Bakugou v Listening

by lightning_anon

Bakugou's pretty shit at listening. Part of that is probably due to being hard of hearing, but another part of that is completely due to the fact that Bakugou's never had anyone to listen to. He's never had friends, and he's not used to carrying conversations that are receptive. He doesn't just not know how to listen, he doesn't know how to show he's listening.With Present Mic's help, and with Kirishima, he's starting to figure it out.
