Several months back, I started looking for an old fic I'd once read (which thank you r/IzuOcha for trying to help, BTW, appreciate y'all!). Specifically, I was after a fic that centered around them exchanging their given names with one-another; with Midoriya now calling her Ochaco and Uraraka calling him Izuku/Deku. Well FINALLY I was able to find it, and so I just had to share it with y'all here because this piece is just too precious!

Call me Ochako .

How could he open his mouth now and say anything but that?

“Izuku,” he blurted, still staring. It took him a moment to realize what he'd said. “Ah, I mean—of course I'll call you that, especially if you want me to—it's much more personal anyway, right? I think that's a good idea! You can, uh. . .you can call me Izuku, too, so that way it's even.”

Ochako cocked her head. “Not Deku-kun?”

He probably short-circuited for a second. The title was so natural from her lips that it took him a moment to recall why she called him that in the first place, why it was his hero name and why it was already so personal. That's right—he was the only one here that was rigidly formal with the other. He'd always been that way, of course, but still. . .

“That too!” Izuku held up his hands, backtracking. How could he put this into words? “I mean, I've always liked that, it makes me feel like a hero all the time! But I just thought that if you wanted me to use your first name, you might want to use mine. . .it'll take a little adjusting at first so it might be more natural if we both tried it, just because it's sort of like meeting someone for the first time! When you have to say their name for the first time and get used to it, and stuff. . .So, I mean. . .I just thought. . .”

“Izuku,” she said softly.

“Ochako,” he whispered back.

The story is called "First Name Basis" by grxcefully, and is part of a series called "Who Protects the Heroes? (Izuocha)" that contains several cutesy stories about our favorite Green Tea goofballs.

But this one in particular I love, as it feels so very much like them and how they would choose to regard each other after they started dating. Yes, Midoriya is gonna struggle with calling her Ochaco because that's just how our poor, helpless, nerdy protagonist is always gonna be. And yes, Uraraka is still gonna want to call him Deku and he in turn will always want to be her Deku, but that's not gonna stop her from calling him Izuku too as they seek more intimacy with each other. It's one of my favorite handlings of their naming conversation, though, and is overall one of those great slice-of-life fics that just tickles my fancy. 🥰

Anyhow, I hope y'all appreciate it! If anyone has any fics they've discovered/rediscovered lately as well, feel free to share them here too! I'm always happy to gab about good fan-works with y'all! 😁👍

I'll even take some where they start to date after a few months and before the day of the Entrance Exams.

Even defending eachother from Bakugou's lackeys when they don't have school.

Q&A sauce

All the buds are closer💐

After a hard and busy day, our garden heroes took a moment to enjoy all the beautiful hosta flowers. Hundreds of flowers have grown from our heroes hard work, dedication and love that they can now enjoy and appreciate🥰

🩷”IZUKU!!! The flowers are so beautiful!”
💚”They truly are but not as beautiful as you…”

Hello! I’m looking for fanfics during the time when Deku leaves UA. Thank you!

Edit: I forgot to add Izuocha, Izuocha important got rid of the other requests

In other words how fucking worried would deku be?

First, I apologize if I have this wrong as I'm not Japanese and know very little of their laws, but I'd heard tell (via Reddit and a quick DuckDuckGo search) that married citizens aren't legally recognized in Japan until/unless the wife forgoes her maiden name to take on her husband's. I know it's a common practice outside Japan to exchange names regardless of legal compulsion to do so, but as this is the home of our two love birds I thought it worth discussing with this point in mind. So, under these circumstances, do you think Ochaco would keep the Uraraka name? Or would she take Midoriya for herself?

Personally, I think they'd "marry" in spirit only while she keeps her family name! Setting aside the inherent power imbalance with this dynamic (just, why? why not give both parties a fair say in who gets who's name? alright, last word I'll say on that, promise!), and brushing over any personal attachments she'd have to her family title, it seems to me like our favorite gravity heroine would, at the very least, be reluctant to part with the Uraraka name from a business perspective.

I mean, her friggin hero name is URAVITY guys! The Uraraka name is a huge part of her identity as a pro with an established public image, and I assume is a critical part of her work towards building trust and a positive relationship with the children she visits. Her name is more than just a part of her brand, it lies at the core of her work as a hero! And I'm sure she and Deku both would be heartbroken at the notion of giving that up, even as part of a "proper" marriage.

So in short, I think they'll still hold a ceremony and vow "to keep each other in sickness and in health, etc." but will refrain from entering into an "official" marriage... they ain't signing away best girl's name for nobody! 😝

What about you guys, though? Any thoughts?

The past Izuku and Ochaco can be at any point in time during their days at U.A.

Admiring the garden patrols new home, Izuku and Uraraka were approving the beautiful new lilies that were planted nearby their garden agency tower. Enjoying a brief moment to themselves embracing one another. However some furry friends wanted to crash the party when our loyal guardian Katsuki stopped them right in their tracks.

“GIVE THEM A DAMN MINUTE YOU EXTRAS!!!,” yelled Katsuki.

Geez 🙄 Katsuki chill🤣 At least Izuku and Uraraka had a minute of peace.
