comment
In which a Mother's prayer is answered, a child's birthright is not denied to him, and his life is forever changed as a result. Features a more confident Izuku, a slightly nicer Bakugo, and a certain No. 2 Hero taking an interest. Rated M for language, violence, and safety purposes.Torchbearer is an AU fanfic of My Hero Academia written by btn29. The story is set in an alternate universe apart from the Canon where Izuku Midoriya does gain a Quirk and how'll he affect those around him on his journey as the World's Greatest Hero.Not to be confused with tabletop RPG with the same name.

comment
Heroic BSoD: The USJ incident, in particular Izuku's near-death experience, triggers this to one degree or another in several of his classmates. Of particular note are: Bakugo, who had to step away from the infirmary for an hour to contact Izuku's mother and shed tears in private, and later breaks down in front of his own mother at home; Uraraka, who later reveals that she noticed that Izuku had stopped breathing for a brief moment while lying unconscious in her lap after he'd been injured, and was so scared of the thought of him dying that she suffered recurring nightmares about it and contacted him late at night by phone just to make sure he was okay.

While still suffering the drawbacks from gaining "One For All", Midoriya is also born with a quirk of his own called "Flame Magnet"; which allows him to have better use of "One For All" from the experience of his own Quirk.

Heterosexual Life-Partners
 Torchbearer (Fanfic) / int_1dfbbf31
comment
Heterosexual Life-Partners: The relationship between Izuku and Bakugo in this story has this vibe. Izuku is probably the only one apart from Bakugo's mother who can talk Bakugo down from his occasional bursts of over-reactive anger, and is likewise one of the few who can force him to speak more politely and apologize. Bakugo allows Izuku the sole privilege of being able to call him "Kacchan" and will not brook any unkind words said about Izuku in his presence.

comment
Chekhov's Gag: One was being set up with the repeated banter between Izuku and Katsuki about their nicknames, and while the fic died before it could be used, the author revealed it in the cancellation announcement. Himiko was going to impersonate Izuku, but her immediate agreement to stop calling Bakugo Kacchan would immediately tip him off.

The Stations of the Canon
 Torchbearer (Fanfic) / int_273af360
comment
The Stations of the Canon: The story mostly follows the canon story-line to the letter, barring differences in dialogue, position, and characterization. The biggest turnpike thrown in so far is Izuku interning under Endeavor alongside Shoto rather than Gran Torino and them working alongside Iida and Manuel in Hosu.

He Who Fights Monsters
 Torchbearer (Fanfic) / int_2c1f1138
comment
He Who Fights Monsters: Discussed by Class 1-A in regards to the first generation of heroes. Some heroes who didn't make the cut for government sanctioned heroism became more ruthless and saw the mass-murder of criminals as the ideal way to cleanse the world of evil. Katsuki also derides these types of people, viewing them as too willing to throw their hands in the air and give up when the going gets tough.

Rule of Cool: Discussed in the author's notes. While the author accepts that Uraraka's Quirk has a lot of Artistic License thrown in so that it can feasibly exist, he'd rather things be as grounded as possible for the story, so it's reworked to be more realistic.

Saying Too Much: In order to get his friend out of his mental funk, Bakugo had planned to surprise Izuku with a fight club, and set him up on a day out with Uraraka just to get him out of the way while he enacted the plan. When Izuku visits him later to thank him for essentially setting up his first date, Bakugo wonders out loud about who could've blown the cover on the fight club plans, and ruins his own surprise.

Self-Surgery: One of the downsides of Tooru's invisibility is that all visual-based medical diagnoses are useless on her (you can't see her bruises, if she's cut her blood is invisible, you can't look in her eyes to diagnose a concussion, etc), so she's been forced to learn how to appraise and treat her own injuries.

Jerkass Has a Point
 Torchbearer (Fanfic) / int_6b05b601
comment
Jerkass Has a Point: The author actually worried that Endeavor would end up being this too much. Whenever he chastises his son over something, it almost always has a solid point behind it. When it was made clear that the Nomu was weak to fire, he calls Shoto out on his refusal to use his fire during the USJ attack. To not use your powers when you don't need them? Fine. To refuse to use them in a life or death scenario where such stubbornness could result in the death of others? Unacceptable. It's telling that no matter how much Shoto hates his father, he can't deny that he's right.

Calling Your Attacks: All Might points out to Izuku that this has an utilitarian purpose in the context of Heroics: since Quirk-based attacks often involve doing complex things simultaneously to get the desired effect, a good attack name serves as a mnemonic device to the Hero for helping to time such actions correctly in the heat of battle.

Adaptational Badass: Many of the characters are shown to be more competent here than canon: While still suffering the drawbacks from gaining "One For All", Midoriya is also born with a quirk of his own called "Flame Magnet"; which allows him to have better use of "One For All" from the experience of his own Quirk. Since Bakugo's pride didn't develop like it was in the beginning of the canon manga, he's much more reasonable in conversations and is much more flexible in combat. In Chapter 20, Bakugo revealed to Kirishima that he and Midoriya regularly engages in no-Quirk sparring while growing up since they can't fully practice their Quirks in public due to Quirk regulations. This allows both Bakugo and Midoriya to have some experience in combat prior to the story. Kaminari is far more competent than how he was in the anime. Besides being Class President, which puts him into a more active position, he also makes it all the way to the final round of the Sports Festival and gives Bakugo a good fight.

Small Role, Big Impact
 Torchbearer (Fanfic) / int_805deb6e
comment
Small Role, Big Impact: Prometheus is the first recorded Supervillain and the first known fire Quirk user. His actions resulted in there being a stigma against fire users that permeated into modern society that only really ended somewhere in All Might's generation. This is implied to have played a role in how Endeavor turned out the way he did, since some musing on his past indicates that he was bullied in high-school.

Endeavor is still mostly the same, but his more noble qualities are given greater prominence and he's shown to be aware of the fallout of his poor treatment of his family and regretting it earlier than canon.

comment
Character Depth: One of the major themes of this story. Aside from the fast-paced action story arcs of the canon manga, "Torchbearer" focuses more on the Switching P.O.V., Character Development, and interpersonal relationships of each individual character.

Insult of Endearment: Played for Laughs as Bakugo and Izuku made this a ritual whenever they call each other by "Kacchan" and "Deku" respectively.

Hoist by His Own Petard: Monoma copying Midoriya's Quirk during the Sports Festival tournament becomes this, as Flame Magnet isn't an intuitive Quirk to use and requires a lot of practice to use effectively. Monoma ends up burning himself.

Cry into Chest: Izuku gives Uraraka a shoulder to cry on after she reveals just how close he came to dying during the USJ incident and how terrified she was of it. Mina cries on Kirishima's shoulder when they have a heart-to-heart about the flaws they see in themselves and what they admire about each other.

Ship Tease: Izuku and Uraraka get plenty, and it goes all the way to a Relationship Upgrade. Shoto also gets a lot with Toru. Jirou and Kaminari are given some small moments as the story progresses.
