#Complicated creation

[fandomssaremysoul]

I have decided to make a MHA, Izuku Midoriya centric, fanfiction 101 recommendations, list.

I am but a basic bitch of nerds, but I have opinions and I WILL share them bc I'm incapable of shutting the fuck up.

Anyway this is a list of fic I think any person who reads fanfiction, is a BNHA fan and likes Izuku Midoriya, should read.

(is it actually an excuse to find ppl who like the same shit i do? Maybe.)

So, this list will contain fics that are completed ONLY.

There are a lot of MHA staples that aren't finished yet, and they will get a post of their own.

🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩

Alright disclaimers, PSA, whatever, ALWAYS and I fuckin mean ALWAYS, read the tags and trigger warnings bc I won't lie, some might get a bit dark.

🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩🚩

1. Complicated Creation - Elemental

Easily one of the best fics I've ever read. Great world building based on the Ghibli movie Spirited away. We love to see it. The writing and plot are both breath-taking.

It has quirkless Izuku, spirits, dragons, healing and a sprinkle of a classic trope in the MHA fandom, Dadzawa.

2. Hero Class Civil Warfare - RogueDruid

If you have been in the fandom space for at least a couple of months and have been reading fics, you have, 100% heard of RogueDruid. He has, hands down, some of the most captivating work in the whole of the internet. One of the classics, is HCCW. It has inspired a lot of other fics, which had gone the class War route (hmu if u want reccs). Incredibly well done, the EFFORT that went into this had to be astounding. There isn't a single miss.

Without spoiling too much, the class 1 A and 1 B, have a final exam. The exam in this world, is a war between villain and heros. Izuku is put into the position of the leader of the villains, the Kingpin while his rival, the Paragon, is none other than Katsuki Bakugou. We get a mastermind Izuku, characters from 1 B, that I personally never cared much for, before reading this fic and more.

3. Mastermind: Strategist for Hire by Clouds

Staying in the villain Izuku waters, I present Mastermind. A part of a series called For the want of a nail, that follows different universes in which Izuku stays quirkless. Mastermind is a personal favourite. It's the second installment of the series and has an ongoing sequel. (The series includes Viridian: the green guide, Deku? I think he's some pro, Chet Code: support strategist and two more, which aren't completed yet).

Here, Izuku stays quirkless as he loses any hope left for the hero society. He, unfortunately for the world, is stupidly smart and easily gained a fearsome reputation, for being the best strategist for hire for villains. After realizing the world sucks and he, in fact, doesn't, Izuku becomes a villain the likes héroes have never seen before.

4. The Mystery of Student No.18 by cloud_nine_and_three_quarters

Another author, that has me by the scruff of my goddamm neck. Went for my throat every fuckin time. I will name the other fics later but lemme tell you about this one.

It's the second fic in the list, that has Izuku with OFA. This time though, Izuku stayed true to his self-sacrificing roots and got himself into a coma. While in his lovely sleeping beauty-esk state, OFA keeps giving him energy and thus an once of a lifetime opportunity to become a ghost. Yes you heard that right. He becomes a ghost and lightly haunts his class. The fic is golden, funny and just a little bit sad.

The other three fics, just as good as this one are Canary, Why are we here again? and Displacement.

5. Yesterday upon the stair by PitvViperOfDoom

Keeping with the ghost theme, we have the one and only YUTS. Again, world building is of the charts great. A great quirk and awesome themes with unexpected turns and plots. The gist is, Izuku can see ghosts. This story is one of the rare ones where Nana Shimura (my beloved) plays a bigger role than usual. Definitely chdck out the additional parts of the series though at that point it goes slightly into more crack waters but it's still incredible.

6. [Content] by Teobot

Taking a sharp turn into morally grey vigilante route, we get this great first part of an incredible ongoing series. There are two parts done and the wait is always worth it.

7. Assignment: Personality Swap by BelleAmant

First I wanted to recc their vigilante Izuku fic (Vigil, Ante and their vigilante antics) but I must admit, while a classic, it hasn't been as impactful to the fandom as Personality Swap has been. Both with its incredible humor, bit of angst and quirk fuckery the whole series has been nothing but hits.

8. Another form of power by Jade_Tatsu

Veering directly back into villain Izuku, this one was a breath of fresh air. I once got tired of villain Izuku that was either forced to be a villain or was just a vigilante but darker, so I went on a search and found this. The series All for power, is a 4 part ENTIRELY COMPLETED series, about politician villain Izuku. The first part is told mostly through the eyes of Kurogiri and I swear, it's my favorite of the all.

9. How Seven (7) Dead Heroes Stopped Being Bored by ScottishSunshine

Crack inspired, but more All for one focused that Izuku, but still most things happen because of the Midoriya family so it counts. It's good and fun and an interesting read especially of you're fond of Dad for one.

10. Prodigal by writerllofllworlds

And for the end, let's get our hearts crushed just a little.

An angst filled suspected traitor AU. In my humble opinion, very few have ever truly succeeded in writing a traitor AU, nearly as good as this one. I like it in most part because Izuku goes through hell and back, and I just am like that. It's epic.

Was this list an exuse to talk about fics I like? Yes. But do i feel like everyone who like BNHA should read these?

Abso - fuckin-lutley

I consider it a crime if you don't. Also pls do add your own opinions and if you want more reccs, ask in the comments or dm me or whatever floats your boat Besties.

Kiki the nerd, signing off

Do you ever just get wrecked so hard by a fanfiction that you can’t stop making art inspired by it that you can pass off as art inspired by Japanese mythology or is that just me

“It’s complicated.” “Problem Child,” Shota intones with every ounce of dry humor he has, “What part of your life isn’t?”

nothing about Izuku is normal (chp. 6)

Complicated Creation by Elemental (AO3) Boku no Hero Academia – General #Alternate Universe #Canon Divergence #BAMF Midoriya Izuku #Parental Aizawa Shouta #Midoriya Izuku Does Not Have One for All Quirk #Mythical Beings & Creatures #Midoriya Izuku sees mythical creatures #AU where people have guardian spirits #Midoriya Izuku Needs A Break #Midoriya Izuku Has a Quirk #kinda sorta #Aizawa Shouta Adopts Shinsou Hitoshi #Canon-Typical Ableism #Quirk Discrimination #Parental Yamada Hizashi

Midoriya Izuku is medically quirkless, not technically homeless, perpetually exhausted and doing his damned best despite it all. He also sees spirits, which might be cool if not for the fact that a) no one else does, b) they really don’t like him very much, and c) he’s pretty sure the heroes now think he’s a villain working for the League.

Aizawa Shota just wants to take down Overhaul, rescue Eri, keep his students alive, get some rest, and find out how this Deku kid knows things he absolutely should not know about his personal life and the Shie Hassaikai case.

Unless Nighteye’s right, and the kid really is a villain.

people always say "your body is a temple" as some kind of pearl-clutching gotcha finger wag to people with tattoos and piercings and body mods which has never made sense to me

cause like.

y'all know what we do with temples right? with holy spaces?

we adorn them in art and precious metals and things of beauty. we make them spectacles of gathering to signal that this is a space we know the Divine calls to us. our Creation does not end the moment we take our first breath, we continue to collaborate in our own Creation each and every day.

get the tattoo or that piercing, fill yourself with delicious things and celebrate in wonder at the mystery it is to live within your body!

oh my god i'm finally done. Say hi to Gravitron, my giant centrifuge lady from some tf oc story i've been cooking up... Design notes and extras under the cut

YES I KNOW SHE LOOKS LIKE CYC. IDGAF!

VERY tall and strong, more than your average cybertronian. smiles.

currently works as a mechanic for her crew in the Concorde (huge spaceship/station)

doesn't have blasters, but does have a blade in each arm

the plating at her back is like extra kibble, can move or lie flat

the orange lines on her plating are her lights, meaning they can be turned of and just be like. non visible lol

was a while on earth for reasons she can't quite remember, thats where she got her idea for an alt mode

a bit mean spirited sometimes. think a meathead highschool jock in an american movie. that but a girl. despite this, she still cares deeply for the people around her and is usually quite friendly. kinda

speaking of which, while not a triple changer, she can modify her alt slightly: one is the regular closed centrifuge (more compact + smaller) and the other is a bigger open ride (she would be stretched out thin here, but could fit smaller bots). The first one can also work as a moving saw blade –see the chainsaw on her calfs and back) just crazy style thang

The reason for her alt mode is she simply enjoys torturing people like that she just finds it funny to spin them fast as fuck for hours 👇some sicko shit

do you ever think about how cool it is that we can just. Make things!? the other day I got bored and got out some chain and pliers and now I’ve got two new belt loop chains. just like that. half an hour for years of use. once I got restless and made a small frog out of clay and he’s been sitting on my bookshelf ever since. and once I was overwhelmed and drew on the walls and left it for months. and it all lasts so long compared to the time it took to make (at least these examples). sometimes the biggest hurdle is just getting out of your own head and realizing how easy it is to create and give meaning and time to things that weren’t just moments before. decided to make brownies on impulse the other day and I did. I put the ingredients together and made something. you can just make things!! isn’t that fucking wild!!! you could do it right now!!

#shitpost #hopepunk #<- to me #anyway #I get in my head a lot about doing things right and preparation #but I don’t need to!! I can just do things! I can make things! #and it’s almost always less work than I think #I build it up in my head but there’s nothing complicated about creation #it’s human nature

wishing everyone who celebrates a happy easter and an even happier transgender day of visibility 🐣🪩🫶🪽

#went to church with my mom for the first time in years just because we thought it could be fun (it was!) and im thinking about. themes #resurrection and rebirth belongs to trans and nonbinary people and if i was going to pray i would thank god for making me queer !!! #the middle picture is from a disco themed university party we had on (holy) thursday where i had So much fun #(the crucifix earring was Mostly ironic and for the aesthetic) #been experiencing a lot of queer joy lately. as well as some new and complicated but Good feelings about gender. and maybe religion as well #anyway. #easter #religion #gender #tdov #trans day of visibility #lgbtq #queer #mine #💛 #religion mention #christianity mention #<- just in case people dont want to see anything to do with religion in the trans tags today (or ever) !! <3 sorry if i missed something #edit: i originally also had a quote from julian k. jarboe here about humanity partaking in the act of creation #but i didnt realize the quote was from a jewish person regarding judaism so i removed it from the association with easter and christianity #the quote itself slaps​ and idk to what degree different religions and discussions or art about them should be kept separated !! #but im not the authority on that and ofc dont want to make anyone uncomfortable !!

Sorry if you've gotten this a whole lot, or if it's a sore spot, but whatever happened to the sequel of Complicated Creation?

It is on hiatus. X_X I had really hoped to have it done but it has been kicking my butt and real life has been keeping me very very busy, so writing has fallen to the wayside. I sadly don't have an eta of when I'll be able to pick it up again. I need to update the fic/here/and such so folks know, since I have a lot of backed up questions about it that have started to get to the 'feeling guilty' stage of things.

Does he want to have this conversation? No. Is he going to? It certainly looks like it.

Aizawa is resigned to dealing with this (chp. 6)

LAAt Pilot Howler and former Construct Detritus, who would really prefer if he would stop getting them shot out of the skies

"As if it is my fault we have to fly directly into artillery fire!" Howler would reply Wooo I love this peace and these two who managed to find their way to eachother in a universe that has predestined them to die in the name of others since the dawn of their creation. They refuse to be the shadows of others they were always meant to be, and will instead forge their own path forwards as individuals, as people, with their own hopes and dreams and ambitions. And they're going to do it together.
