RE: Izuku by thecozydragon, rated T, 9k
Warning: Graphic Depictions of Violence
This fic tore my heart out, stomped on it, then shoved it back in its place. Izuku has a quirk that activates on death. Set during the training camp arc.

Oooh, I really, REALLY like temporary memory loss fics, especially if there's angst. But this one does not give angst and instead gives off a more hopeful vibe, which is just as good as angst, if not better. https://twitter.com/CrzAngel96/status/1233203260653260800?s=19

CAIA ONCE AGAIN STRIKES WITH THE HURT/COMFORT TDDK THAT'S MOSTLY COMATOSE SHOUTO AND PINING IZUKU. And they were ROOMMATES. The yearning jumped out in this one y'all, so please, please give it a read. https://twitter.com/izunako/status/1240728731250876421?s=20
Ree also strikes again with another fic, this time long-distance tddk and Shouto-centric. There's a feeling of warmth and home each time I read Ree's characterizations of tddk, so I wanted to include that specific feeling in this thread. https://twitter.com/unreeemarkable/status/1241142300090171398?s=20
