Paper Agency - The Feels Whale (miscellea)
Brand new U.A. graduate, Shinsou Hitoshi, has a lot on his plate between finding a job, looking for a place to live, figuring out what his relationship with his mentors is going to look like now that they're not teacher and student anymore, and why his civilian boyfriend, Izuku, is acting so damn weird.
Or: that one where Shinsou realizes a lot of things have been going on in the wings.
Part 1 of BNHA Boys Having Big Feels
The Only Direction We Flow is Down - a1iceinchains
“When I looked around I saw and heard of none like me. Was I, then, a monster, a blot upon the earth, from which all men fled and whom all men disowned?''
Shinsou has had to fight tooth and nail his entire life just to get a chance. Eraserhead gives him that chance, and so begins the fight for Shinsou’s transfer into the hero course.
I Would Understand - deafmic
Shinsou Hitoshi had a bit of a problem, and that problem was that he’d gotten attached to Aizawa Shouta. And somewhere along the line had started seeing him as a parental figure, a replacement for all the foster home parents who’d passed him along and never quite done their job.
A kid who's been in foster care his entire life spends a normal, average day after training with the teacher who seems to care a little too much.
Sprinting to the Start Line - konbini_kun
Aizawa didn’t know what to expect after being called to resolve a middle school quirk incident, but it definitely wasn’t Shinsou Hitoshi.
aka
Aizawa gets quickly attached to a kid he just saved and offers him the world after one (1) meeting. Shinsou unknowingly flares latent parental instincts while being trained to be a hero by his hero and ends up with a second set of parents (eventually).
Naruhata Noir - machiroads
With his mentor in the hospital and UA on lockdown, Shinsou is offered a unique opportunity to intern with Aizawa under the pretense of assisting with his recovery.
But living the Eraserhead Experience means staying in his old stomping grounds, and Shinsou gets more than he bargained for out of Naruhata:
Cats, his mentor's sordid past, and the true meaning of vigilantism amidst the apocalypse.
Spoilers beyond Chapter 282 / S6E9
Part 2 of Lullabies for Insomniacs
this feels right - fandomtrashpanda
"I know you said you're not here to make friends, but I like you, dude. You're a proper hero hopeful, just like the rest of us."
Hitoshi is thankful for his mask, because that means Kaminari isn't able to see his is jaw drop or hear him gasp softly, and the blonde is too busy smiling at him bright enough to blind him to see Hitoshi shifting to subtly grab at his arm that has started burning in a way that definitely isn't his imagination.
But Hitoshi doesn't need a burning soulmark, and he doesn't need fate, because even without that stupid mark he's sure he would have been immediately besotted by that bright smile, kind words, and easy acceptance. The only thing the burning mark tells him is that he's justified in feeling his heart race as his palms start to sweat.
OR
Shinsou Hitoshi had always looked forward to meeting his soulmate. But when it happened he wasn't expecting it to feel like… this.
Pinch Point - Mags_Pie
“Shinsou, are you listening to me?” Aizawa barked.
“Run and don’t look back.” He repeated.
“Good.” Aizawa turned his head as a flash of light blinded them both. “Now go.”
Shinsou and Aizawa are being hunted down by quirk traffickers.
Part 1 of Trafficked
if i'm alive and well - fandomtrashpanda
"Hey there, big guy," he said, and Mindjack's eyes grew wide with recognition. "We've gotta stop meeting like this."
"It's you…" he whispered, and he started sitting up, only to fall back with a hiss of pain.
OR
5 times EMT Kaminari saved pro-hero Shinsou, plus the one time Shinsou saved Kaminari.
Point Blank - Cobbiest
“I understand better than anyone that the entrance exam isn’t fair, nothing in life is. It’ll be hell, but if you can go beyond, “plus ultra,” I think that you too can become a hero. Are you up to the task?”
Shinsou braced himself, grasping Aizawa’s hand firmly in his own.“I won’t disappoint you, sensei.”
Or: Shinsou Hitoshi, disheartened by his defeat in the Sports Festival, does everything in his power to transfer into the hero course, and maybe gets a few new contacts added to his phone along the way. The basics of heroics, learning to trust, and a copious quantity of cats. You know the drill.
