Causality of Temporal Paradox by MirrorDaltokki
"A tart temper never mellows with age, and a sharp tongue is the only edged tool that grows keener with constant use."
- Washington Irving
In which you are very clearly not having a good time slipping through time and space.
Lucky for you, there's at least one constant. Hawks seems to not mind you showing up in his bed over and over again throughout his life.
But hey, look at the upside. There's pro-heroes, so that's kind of cool.
Cleaning Crew; Teaching Kids to Value their Safety, for Fun and Profit by Reavv
Takenaka Hideo is a thirty-two year old, in mild desperation for money, who has just been hired as a new janitor for UA's support staff. He has a quirk that lets him find lost objects, a liaison with the police because of it, and desperate desire for competent co-workers.
Oh, and he's already lived a previous life, in a world where quirks and heroes didn't even exist.
Not a big deal, though. It's not like you ever see the janitor playing a big part in action movies. He's here to get paid, and that's it.
On the opposite side of the equation, class 1-A has to wonder at the new UA cryptid that always seems to show up when things are on fire, and who keeps trying to convince them to let the adults handle the fire extinguisher.
I Didn’t Want This (but I’ll make the most of it anyway) by ThisRealityAside_73
(mature) (graphic depictions of violence)
Reborn as Midoriya Izuku with memories of a prior life intact, this particular soul overrides genetics. Even with an extra toe joint, this Midoriya Izuku uncovers a somewhat subtle Quirk of their own. They have a Quirk, but they’re not saying a word. They’re functionally Quirkless for the most part, anyway.
Until One For All is added to the equation, enabling their own Quirk to work on themself as well rather than only on others.
In which Midoriya Izuku has a Quirk, and is maybe more bitter over being alive than being labeled Quirkless due to society being complete and utterly unobservant assholes.
Horseshoes and Hand Grenades by Vroomian
You don't care about sports, and you didn't ask for this nonsense.
so miracles happen after all. by リリス - riris (arurun)
Paralyzed from the neck down, a former basketball star wished only for one thing.
And like a miracle, he wakes up in a new world, in a new body-- and there's only one thing he wants to do now, so he starts running.
"Wait, is this that basketball anime?"
Ball Is Life, But You Still Need To Pay Rent by vermillion_crown
Here's the thing. Taiga has a little breakdown (politely, in the cabin restroom at 3:37 AM PST while the other passengers are dead asleep) and gets over it in the span of the eleven hour flight into Tokyo. The leftover memories in his head really help with perspective, let's just say.
He likes basketball. Loves it, even. Sure, maybe another team sport might do the trick in a pinch, but his body and reflexes are optimized for basketball. It'd be a waste of time to change tracks
Ball is life, but you still need to pay rent. Okay, well officially, his dad's paying the rent. But the sentiment still stands, right? There are other things to worry about.
Who the hell peaks in high school?
(SI/OC as Kagami Taiga, who just wants to ball—all the chūnibyō shit be damned.)

So. Let's get this straight - I didn't set out to derail any plot. My plan was to lay low and stay away from canon. It's just...
i told you when i came i was a stranger by Caramelized
A modern OC arrives in Yiling before the start of the Sunshot Campaign. She has no friends, no money, and no cultivation. She knows what's coming, but what could she possibly do about it?

“Well…” I looked down at my fingernails and tried not to squirm. “If there were a way to separate Wei Wuxian from Madam Yu without ruining his relationship with his siblings, I’d encourage it. Like, as an example, marriage.”
Xichen blinked. “To you?”
“No. Absolutely not. What even—?” The thought was so abhorrent I couldn’t hold it in my head. My brain spat it right back out. “To your brother.”
Xichen blinked. Again. “To Wangji?”
“This is a concern of yours?”
“I realize it’s not my business at all,” I admitted. “But you asked.”
Doing the Work by MarbleGlove
There’s more to peace than the absence of war. The work is as hard and uncertain as any Shinobi mission.
AKA: A highly self-indulgent fic in which a civilian woman helps an orphaned Sasuke and winds up saving the world.
Making Lemonade by Meeceisme
(mature) (graphic depictions of violence)
Waking up after dying to a whole new life in a brand new body is a little outside his frame of reference. But he'll do his best to make the best of this weird as hell situation. Worse comes to worst he'll grab all his favourite people and run the hell away from this mad place.
Featuring: Konoha's atrocious orphanage system, cynical child soldiers and Kakashi's guilt complex.
wataru, wataru by unolvrs
“Kirigakure didn’t need help. They needed salvation.”
No one knows anything about the Mizukage. Only that she’s kind. She likes to smile. She likes seafood like every other Mizu-born. And that there’s something inexplicably wrong with her. There’s something wrong with the Mizukage whom the Kiri-nin call a ‘god’.
—or, Wataru Wataru was never really a powerhouse, in this life or the last, but she’s resourceful. She knows cults, pyramid schemes, and corrupt politicians like the back of her hand, so of course, she becomes the Mizukage and becomes a god along the way.
