Your Heart Is A Muscle The Size Of A Rat

Because I'm interested, what are some of your favorite fanfics and what fanfics do you love but feel like they should be more popular than they currently are?

You fool.... you have opened the flood gates!

I'm going to stick with the fics that deserve more attention because also listing my favorites that are popular would make this post way too long

In The After by HopeNight. It's a post-canon fic that ignores everything past the Cultural Festival Arc, and follows Midoriya training a girl named Watashi Kiyomi who wants to be a Quirkless Hero. It's excellent and severely underloved.

Ripples on Deep Water by Silver_Snek, which is a rewrite of a fic I really enjoyed up until the ending took a sudden turn, which I assume is related to it being rewriten. This rewrite is still on chapter one, and hasn't updated in... a bit, but I have high hopes.

Don't Forget The Support by FandomsandFlowers, if you want that delicious Support-Heroics Hybrid Quirkless Midoriya

A Sort of Patchwork by DyedViolet, sadly discontinued after the author fell out of the fandom, but otherwise an extremely good urban fantasy with Quirks AU

Syzygy Series by orkestrations. It's Dad For One but everyone already knows and is supportive, and is real good

The Kaiju Hero: Titan Monarch by TreeKiller. The fic that hooked me on Hero Course Hatsume. Should note it has some All Might bashing and Endeavor accidentally gets Inko killed very early on, but if you're cool with that it's fun and wild. Also hasn't updated in a while.

Paper Agency by The Feels Whale, which I'm surprised to see has >100,000 hits. Due to a Department of Education scandal, Midoriya wasn't allowed into any high school. If you think this will stop him, I don't know what manga you've been reading. Starts after graduation.

Okay so Izuku Midoriya vs the World may have been orphaned, but it also has the most interesting take on All Might Negativity I've ever seen in that his entire character arc is overcoming the internalized discrimination he faced growing up that he never had to examine after getting OFA. Abusive Inko.

Flashback by Psyckosama has less than 100,000 hits and that should be a crime. It is easily one of the best Time Travel Fixits, and has some really cool worldbuilding.

Inheritor of Two by The_Mad_Mystic. It's very similar to Chaos For All. Be aware that Midoriya does lose a limb though.

Crossfire by CosmicMerman. Midoriya fakes a Quirk by buying experimental nanites online.

Shared Dream by Beaumains. Midoriya adopts a cat with a Quirk that lets the cat share traits with people she bonds with. So now he has an intelligent cat he can talk to with his mind and also cat mutations.

Duplicity And All Its Cold Comforts by DragonflyxPardoies. Wanna watch a bunch of kids take down society?

Blood and bones and heroism by Elia41. More urban fantasy fused with MHA. Interesting in that after learning magic, Midoriya figures he may as well make his classmates at UA learn magic too.

Born of cold (and winter air) by StormySkiesAhead. Yes it's another urban fantasy. No I will never be sick of them. Midoriya and Todoroki are dragons, and there are a handful of other magical being in Class 1-A. The LoV breaks into Endeavor's agency to glue tiny plastic camels to everything. Literally what more could you want?

i'll be your biggest kept secret and your biggest mistake by sascake. This one has a pretty dark backstory as a future fic, so be careful of that. Namely, there was an explicit suicide attempt. While it's never shown in detail it's discussed pretty heavily, so be careful about that. Despite that it's mostly a cute love story about Midoriya and Todoroki.

Elemental Storm by CatnipKDODO, who follows this blog, so hi! This fic is getting a rewrite but this version is still available for reading. It has that fandom concept of a third transferable Quirk, in this case one themed around all the elements. Hurricane, that Canadian Hero from WIMTBAH is a cameo from this fic. Tagged as All Might bashing but really isn't.

Drown Together by Zirconium40. Wanna watch everyone destroy society? Darkest HPSC depiction I've seen.

Parallel Lines by Endivinity. Midoriya has AFO and is implied to have killed AFO. Mysteries abound.

if I make it through tonight, everybody's gonna hear me out! by x_asche_13. Described as a Leverage AU, and has one of my favorite 'Izuku and Himiko are siblings' dynamics.

Then I'll Do It My Way by justaglitch. BAMF Yaoyorozu.

Defiant by arc1m3d35. OFA!Uraraka and AFO!Midoriya are trapped on an island AFO uses to hold animalistic Noumu.

Son of a Gun by Randomsumofagum. Izuku is the son of Inko and Nagant.

hell is empty (all the devils are here) by idiot_onion. Midoriya is possessed by a demon. This goes surprisingly well for him.

a cubic centimeter of flesh Series by Lucifra. Due to a series of coincidences and a serious mistake by AFO, Midoriya ends up killing him and stealing his body on complete accident.

My Battle Acamaidia by Drink_Some_Water. Shigaraki played a few too many games and decides that what he needs before the USJ attack... is maids. This is a surprisingly wholesome Villain!Fem!Midoriya fic

Key Lime Pie by Violetsumire, another person who follows this blog, hello! The future daughter of Inko and All Might was left unsupervised with Hatsume and naturally Hatsume sent her back in time, and she sets out to save Izuku's life. Discussed suicide.

Eldritch by CosmicAce. A rewrite. Death asked if anyone was gonna mom Izuku and didn't wait for an answer.

OH NO NOW I HAVE THE SADS WHAT HAVE YOU DONE. SOMEONE GIVE THIS BOY A HUG

So, the new clip, huh? Pretty funny and cute, I love that “all” of the Paladins are taking a moment to breathe, and have fun. But, I’ve noticed something. Let’s take a moment to consider this.

Now normally, I think we all know that Lance would be all over this type of stuff. He’s the ‘goofball’ that loves to joke around and lighten the mood. That’s his thing. But here, he seems completely distant from the group. He’s brooding and asking about the mission, which is something entirely Keith. Not to say this is exactly what Keith would do, but it is very very similar. If I didn’t know any better, I would think that Lance is almost trying to make up for that loss. Usually there’s always someone to knock some sense into the group, or, at least give something to think about. Keith is all about the mission, and maybe Lance needs that right now. He needs something to distract himself from everything that’s been going on, and not only that, but he has nobody to one-up anymore. With a game involving strengths and completing quests, he actually, legitimately chose to be a ‘lone wolf.’ Let that sink in for a second. In the beginning of the show, I’d have no doubt that Lance would want to be a knight in shining armour, especially for Allura. Now that Keith’s gone and Lotor’s here, what can he really do? It’s unfamiliar territory, he’s trying to make up for what they’re losing/lost. Keith always seemed to be a little less enthusiastic about everything, as if he didn’t care as much. Maybe that’s what lance wants? Maybe these emotions are just so powerful for him, he’s looking for a way out of that. Also, remember when the review for S6 said someone was changing? Well… need I say more?

This is just a small idea of what the episode might mean, but I’d be excited to hear your own interpretations! Why do you think Lance has decided to act a little bit distant? Note that I’m aware this is a lot of ideas from something so simple as him not acting up to par, but that’s what they’re showing the clips to us for! Theories and excitement.
