FanficRecs The Hijinks of Big Brain Boy and Big Brain Villian

Wow, can I just say, big brain fanfiction at its finest. It's labeled as metafiction, but honestly I don't really see it? Yes there's analysis and stuff, but nothing that makes me think that the story is related to our universe or anything. Maybe I missed something. But ANYWAYS! This story is soooo goood you guysssss. Izuku really pulls through with some crazy deductive and logical connection skills. Like woah, even All for One was super impressed. Speaking of All for One, man's is super weird and evil, but also not hateable. Like, you know he's evil, but his dry humor and banter with Izuku makes all his appearances really enjoyable, if that makes sense. Not even to mention the plot twist. OMG the plot twist. Ugh. Literally the set-up was FLAWLESS. The first time through, it's so intriguing to watch Izuku collect all the puzzle pieces from research and conversations with said cryptid, and you sort of see where it's going, but just the BUILD-UP is so good that you don't even care if you know, you just want to see how we get there. And then if you re-read it, you can see the foreshadowing and the clues better and it's just—MWAH, Perfect. Truly a treat to read, it's one of my favorites to visit. Highly recommend~

FanficRecs Awesome Fic

Conversations is definitely one of my favorite fics, and the author does a truly fantastic job of telling a story and building up to the climax, which pays off beautifully.

It has a sequel, Kidnappings, which is pretty good and worth the read, but for various reasons, I find it to be nowhere near as good as Conversations.

FanficRecs ....I think he figured it out

...a lot of this is just speculation from minimal information... but..... he ties it together to a point where I actually believe him
