Playful Rationality
Summary: Izuku Midoriya, born Izumi Midoriya, has always had two identities: the gentleman he wished he was, and the lady he was forced to be. However, no one has ever thought the two separate individuals until Mr. Katsuki Bakuogu, a young, rich, and unmarried man, moves in not too far away and first meets him on his morning ride – the one time of day he gets to be himself. In an attempt to court him as Izuku, however, he ends up tricking the man into believing that his female counterpart is his younger sister, who is rivaling for his affections. Katsuki prides himself for his intellect and loves Izuku for that same quality, but when will he be smart enough to see that his love triangle is actually a straight (or perhaps not-so-straight) line?
Info: Based on Pride and Prejudice/Jane Austen’s writing in general, trans male Izuku Midoriya, dense language and witty banter, slow burn, Old English Gentry AU, strangers to lovers, lots of flirting, some angst later, happy ending.
