101 Open MHA Gen Prompts
I had a very long ask game where people gave me fake titles and I came up with fic ideas to go with them.  Multiple people asked to use some of them as prompts, and some of my friends have lately maligned the lack of gen prompts out there, so I decided to compile them all into a single post.  Almost all of these are gen, aka not shipping, but you can do what you want I’m not your boss.  Everything is free and open to use WITH CREDIT, so have fun with my word vomit.
1. In Dreams I Had the Sun - Being the number one hero isn’t all it’a cracked up to be, Toshinori realizes early on
2. The Chainlink Fence that Held the Ocean - In his new book post-retirement, All Might opens up about his regrets, struggles with mental health, and his issues with the hero system as a whole.  The backlash is swift and intense.
3. Welcome to the Loud Silence - After an injury, Izuku is rendered deaf.
4. Water Since Turned Red - After a villain attack nearly kills All Might, the beach where Izuku used to go to find comfort now feels tainted.
5. all scrap left untouched is bound together - A group hero students who failed the provincial license exam for the third time, effectively ending their careers before they start, get together to take revenge on UA’s first years who beat them out.
6. You’ve saved more more times than you know - Times All Might saved people without his powers, just by being a cool, nice dude.
7. No Amount of Tragedy Can Justify Your Actions - A dying All for One tries to justify his centuries of cruelty to an uncaring Toshinori.

9. Okay, who let in the Kraken? - Izuku is the reincarnation of an ancient eldritch horror.
10. keep us alive up above - Izuku and Shigaraki get trapped together somewhere.  Izuku knows he needs the villain’s help to survive and escape, but the other would rather they both die.
11. The world will revolve around me neither less - The ebbs and flows of AFO’s influence over the years.
12. More Roulette, Not Russian - Kids get their quirks swapped.
13. Patron Saints - Toshinori teaches a class about pre-quirk superhero comic characters and their influence.

72. Of Popsicles and Ponytails - All Might gets in a discussion with the other teachers about whether the Clark Kent glasses thing would actually work.  All Might bets them it does, so he goes around town with no disguise other than his hair being up, and no one bats an eye.
73. All Men are Not Born Equal - Word gets out to the public that izuku used to be quirkless.  Everyone finds out just how deep anti-quirkless sentiments run when some begin to question whether a quirkless kid should be at ua, regardless of whether or not he has a quirk now.
74. Childhood is the kingdom where nobody dies - Something about encountering death in person for the first time being the dividing line between child and adult.
75. Sins of the Father - All for One has had many children over the centuries, and has made numerous attempts to groom them into the ideal heir with several different methods.  None of them worked though.
76. Where The Dead Come To Rest - The kids come home after a long, grueling mission where they saw some shit, and are too tired to process what they went through.  They take off their gear for plain clothes, then sit in the common room in silence long into the night, not wanting to open themselves up but also not wanting to be alone.

78. A Subtle Language - All Might and Nana never said out loud that they loved each other, but little things told them that they did.  All Might hopes to pass a similar love down to his own successor.  But Izuku is very different than himself as a kid, and he needs to learn a new subtle language of affection.

80. A Sight For Sore Eyes - All Might looking after Izuku in the aftermath of the second movie.

83. Eden was Only a Garden - Izuku gets hit with a quirk that erases some of his most traumatic memories, but in doing so loses part of who he is.
84. Run it Down - With all Izuku’s new quirks and his incredible skill, some of the other students with similar powers (Iida, Sero, Uraraka) start to feel like izuku is upstaging them.  And it affects their friendship.
85. Fool's Gold - Bakugou grows even more jealous of Izuku having One for All, and his relationship with All Might.  He thinks that if he could just prove himself to be more worthy, All Might would change his mind and name him his successor.  But in reality, he ends up jeopardizing the relationship they already have.
86. somewhere down the road - The final deadline for Nighteye’s predictions passes, and All Might lives.  He debates telling Izuku, as even though it would be a weight off the boy’s mind, he doesn’t want to jinx it.  He will still die eventually after all.
87. Just For You - All Might has certain rules and boundaries for fan interactions that he completely ignores for Izuku.
88. if these walls could talk (their whispers would be maddening) - Montage of training accidents in a ‘cursed’ ua gym
89. If Only I Could... - Nighteye tells Mirio about One for All, including that he thinks he’s more deserving than Izuku and he plans to pressure him into giving it up.  Mirio struggles with the knowledge that his mentor, someone he respected more than anything, only saw him as a replacement for All Might, meanwhile watching Izuku strain under the pressure of that mentor’s impossible expectations.
90. This is a Test Designed to Provoke an Emotional Response - shameless Blade Runner AU
91. Once and for All - Retelling of the Superman story “What’s So Funny About Truth, Justice, and the American Way?” with All Might.  Some new heroes use much more aggressive and violent tactics against villains while also upstaging All Might.  That, and there general approval from the public cause All Might to question his moral code.
92. Sitting In The Rain - Tsuyu likes to just sit out in the rain sometimes.  Not do anything, just sit there.  Some friends decide to join her.
93. At Sundown - Mysterious creatures start attacking ua every night.  The gang works tirelessly during the day to find the cause and a solution, while defending their school and each other at night.
94. The 1000th time's the charm - Uraraka has been practicing a new move in secret but they just can’t get it right.  She wants it to be perfect before showing it off.  But one attempt gets her seriously hurt while training alone at night in one of the gyms, and she’s too hurt to get up to the phone to call for help.
95. Sunflower Seeds - All Might attempts to start a garden as a new hobby.
96. What It Means To Be Human - Sun god Toshi starts living among people.
97. Eyes on Me - All Might teaches Izuku some unarmed fighting moves to defend himself from bullies.
98. one remains - Izuku has developed all but one of the quirks he’s slated to, and he has no idea what it will be.  Anxiety ensues.
99. Come Back Home - Izuku vanishes from campus and everyone assumes he was kidnapped, but in reality he ran away to try and clear his head after a depressive spiral.  He goes by train as far away as he can until he comes to his senses and calls the others.
100. I Won - Izuku accidentally managed to kill Shigaraki during a skirmish, and while everyone around him praises his heroics, he struggles to deal with the fact that he killed someone.
101. Ivory Tower - All Might grapples with how much izuku suffered as a quirkless person, how he could have done more for quirkless rights in his time as a hero, and how now people may not care as much because he’s retired.
Reminder to credit me if you use any of these prompts, and a special thanks to everyone who submitted titles!

Ocean au (kidnapping part 1)
N/A: Merciful short if we´re lucky. I just want to show a bit of Kurt and Kitty and Emma and Loki.
@djinmer4 @dannybagpipesarecalling @bamfoftheundead @everykurt
Emma is a seductive woman. No arguing here. And as much Emma loves to use her good looks to get what she wants and needs, and she does that regularly, Emma is also a woman of her word, so if Magneto wants to see his long lost daughter Lorna Dane Pryde.
Yet, how to capture the lady of magnetism? Seduction-well, she has a fling with another woman so is not like Emma can´t seduce Lorna- is a good tactic but since Kitty is her sister and hates her guts as much Emma hates hers....the chances of Lorna wanting to spend time with Emma are pretty slim.
"What I can do to kidnap this greenest?" Emma ponders and ponders and ponders in her old abode- she´s not dumb enough to return to her old home- who is an emergency home in New Gotham along with a fake ID. People now realize that Emma Frost is no longer in jail...and she does not need anyone tipping the JLX.
"Don´t tell me...this is my only option?" she refuses to make this one call because quite frankly Loki is an asshole and she never sees eye to eye with this wizard-it does not help knowing he stole from her while she was being possessed by diamonds- yet, no one should have a debt with Magneto.
And she knows the man is not interested in repeating the same "dish" with Emma, so, swallowing her pride a call is made. "Loki" and she can hear the man chuckling in Norwegian and Emma is rolling her eyes and thinking of the price.
"Emma Frost, calling at such an hour, where are your moods, young lady?" Loki mockingly chastised her.
"I don´t know, old man, where are yours? Did your mother never told you stealing is wrong?!"
"It takes a thief to see another, right? Now, did you call me to confess your undying love for me or can I call off now?"
"I want to make a deal with you, Loki"
"A deal with me? Dearie, what you can offer that I can´t take" and adds "plus, I have a way hotter woman in my house than you would ever believe so sex is not an option" and Emma can hear some of the ladies giggling and speaking in a foreign language. Emma does not need to be a genius to know they´re mocking her
Emma shivers in disgust. "As if, it wouldn´t ever happen. But I know you have a like for SCPs" and this makes the giggles stop and Loki´s breathing change.
"Listen, Emma, don´t lie about this. Not with me. I have an appreciation with SCPs that you wouldn´t understand" Loki´s tone is more sinister and Emma can imagine his eyes are glowing now.
"I have an SCP and I would like to trade with you for your assistance. I need to kidnap someone who is way out of my league"
Silence. Consideration is really thick.
"Which SCP are we talking about?"
Now Emma´s turn to smile. "Why I would give details to a thief? maybe is an SCP that can alter realities, maybe is an SCP that makes a good coffee maybe....is the Scarlet King" is all lies and Loki, ironically being the self-proclaimed father of lies, is believing in her words.
"Who do you want to kidnap?"
"Lorna Dane Pryde"
"...Who the hell is she? Wait, Wait, Pryde? Is she Polaris?"
"Magneto has a great interest in Lorna..."
"Dirty old man"
Emma won´t correct him saying Lorna may be his long lost daughter.
"Ok, it seems Emma you got help now. Don´t make me waste my time" and Loki turns off the conversation as Amora look at him critically and Loki can even predict what she´ll say.
"Look, she may be lying, she may not. But...I´d not want to risk someone like Emma having an SCP"
"And you´re the best option in this case?"
"No, far from it. My idea is to give whatever SCP she has to the foundation"
__________________________________________________________________________________________
Kitty is fixing herself for her date-Jupiter and Cosmo are teasing her for that along with Lorna even though they aren´t very fond of Kurt Ryder-and once she´s cute and her dress is matching with her shoes is time to go.
"Kitten" Cosmo speaks sagely. "if he made you cry. Tell me...and his reality will be one to cry about" and looks up to see where Jupiter is. "And this furball will use the tentacles" and Jupiter takes his time to reply in a big fashion.
"I sure hell will" and his tentacles can be seen. "So, really, if he hurts you...he´s food"
"Lorna told me...she would put a shark on his bed. I love how protective you all are with me...but no need to murder or torture Ryder for me...if he turns out to be a jerk...I´ll deal on my own"
"Yeah...of course..." Jupiter and Cosmo are quick to answer in unison. It would be cute if it wasn´t coming from two eldritch abominations that can destroy your mind easily.
"I´ll be ok and be right back in no time" Kitty promises to her furry companions who in turn only speak how time is nothing but a mortal illusion crafted by mankind to give an illusion of control. "Thanks, that will be a great way to break the ice"
_______________________________________________________________________________________
Ryder is terrified of her cat. He can´t even hide this little(big) fact and even steps away once Jupiter approaches-not that he didn´t have a similar reaction to Cosmo. The thing is...Cosmo has no tentacles coming out of his mouth...as far Ryder is concerned- and while is not the first time he takes a lady out and someone in her group disapproves him...is the first time Ryder does feel fear.
"Hi, are we ready?" Kitty asked and Ryder can ignore his creeping fear of her cat and dog to admire her for a minute. She looks cute and pretty and Ryder knows he saw many, many pretty women in his time, and yes, Kitty is not exactly the supermodel...yet...
"You look beautiful" is an honest reply and Kitty blushes at that. Again, Kurt can say he has dated many women and some were even married, but, Kitty´s pretty smile is way better than those women could ever offer.
"Thank you!" she chippers but whispers in his ear and her voice makes his body shiver in delight. There´s something familiar here that he can´t place his finger yet. "last chance, if you want to jump out....that´s the time"
"No, I want to take you on a date" is his response.
"I´ll not sleep with you" there´s mirth in her words and Ryder is a bit fascinated by such small gesture.
"I can survive. Still taking you out"
"Ok, then take me out, Kurt Ryder"
And it was a nice date even if by all chances and possibilities Kurt Ryder and Kitty Pryde managed to bump into Clark Rogers and Gwen Stacy having a date in the same restaurant as Kurt picked. While Clark and Ryder show no signal of being friends, at very least, they show some civility towards each other.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________
"Ryder?"
"Yes?"
"Are you still having nightmares about the Pool of Blood?"
"Yes, and you?"
"No, not really"
"I think you´re lying but I also think you´re the bravest person I ever met."
"Only brave?"
"I can say you´re a fantastic cooker. A bit naive sometimes, an amazing person and I feel you could defeat me with one punch. I happen to like all that"
"And you´re a very noisy Mr reporter"
"Yeah, I´m...did you know Columbina calls me like that?"
"Columbina is smart"
"That she is"

lebensmüdigkeit
maid of light realizes the pun with only minor delay and confronts the abyss about it fan-session, word count: 1372
tw: some bodily fluids
“Aren't light players supposed to be like super smart or some shit?” You babble into your headset, with only minor difficulty, as you hoist up a salamander facing upside-down from where it's wedged in a narrow gap in between some bits of-- some sort of dark coral? Weirdly shaped sea-rock? Fuck if you know, but the little dude here was supremely unlucky enough to make a tumble down into it, tragically headfirst with its little feet flailing desperately. You might have laughed at it initially. For probably longer than was necessary.
“Nevermind don't answer that, I don't know anything,” you quickly add before anyone can reply, dislodging the poor creature as it gurgles in a panic, struggling in your arms. “God, hold the fuck-- no not yo-- shit!” Its tail slaps you hard across the jaw and you let the infernal amphibian or whatever it is go, bringing up a hand to your face and snarling out another swear while the salamander wiggles around, eventually finding its feet again, and absconds. You glare in its direction as it weaves dizzily across the shoreline, no doubt off to find another stupid place to get stuck in.
“One of these days all these little guys are just gonna die. They're all going to die by falling in holes or getting eaten by an imp or not having enough water despite this whole place being fucking overwhelmingly made of water...” You re-adjust your glasses, grimacing. “I don't know. They're fucking stupid. I'm fucking stupid. Why does any of this have to be a thing?”
You let out a loud, aggravated sigh at the laughter you get in response and promptly trip over another fucking god knows what on this stupid piece of shit land of yours--
“And why does it have to be so dark literally all the fucking time?!”
You pretend to not hear the comment about your lack of proper footwear.
Ah, Derse. Fucking Derse. Lovely awful city conveniently located way the fuck out right next to all the worst horrors in this entire existence. You do admit, though, they aren't actually so bad now that you've gotten used to their constant, disturbing presence. You, too, have to deal with living next to a bunch of tiny assholes doing dumb shit constantly. It's a kinship of sorts.
You don't feel like doing a whole hell of a lot when you dream. You had hoped that this time you'd get to enjoy the hazy aloofness that occupying your dreamself usually brings, but apparently the moon decided fuck you too and your mind is completely clear. If anything, you feel focused. You should write a fucking novel or something. Get creative in the weird copy-paste room of yours with all the scribbles on the walls and shit.
Too much work, every part of you that's ever existed in any time and place agrees, time to fuck around.
You lazily drift over the city, watching the lil chess guys do their thing when that thing doesn't involve extortion or murder. When it does involve that. You decide to simply... not.
You glance overhead, recognizing the gross swirls and wriggles in the darkness as the greatly spooky horrorterrors you've had the immense pleasure of hearing both about and from. Unfortunately for them, you're already well acquainted with hallucinations like you're a couple of neighborhood watch members keeping tabs on any time you're feeling paranoid as shit, and these terrors will have to try a lot harder than that if they want to bother you.
You don't think you're supposed to be able to see them, though. Nobody else has ever mentioned seeing them. Is this some sort of ironic Light shit? Farsighted enough to warrant glasses but as a grand bonus you get to see the literal eldritch abominations constantly looming overhead nearby under all around everywhere. Fantastic.
You continue to stare. (The abyss stares back!)
You wonder if you could talk to them. Have a polite conversation with the incomprehensible monstrosities. Maybe they aren't so terrible, and all their whispering is just a dumbass joke that surely would be remedied if you could get close enough to shove your aspect right into their glistening infinite fucking eyeballs.
Ugh, aspect. Light light light brite make it change with light.
Great, you got all this knowledge or ability to make things sparkly clear like a well-washed glass in a soap commercial but fuck if you can actually physically make anything light up.
You grumble, tearing your eyes away as they begin to strain painfully, resting your head in your hands. Maybe you're thinking about this the wrong way again. Maybe, as usual, you're being a shit idiot who does not know a fucking thing.
You create light. You create with light. Booklearning and vision and perception and... and!
Fuck.
You take off your glasses in habit, snagging the end hem of your dersite pajamas with the intent to clean off the lenses of accumulated dust-funk, looking down at the them with mild scrutiny as you do so. The bits of glass are crystal clear.
Crystal clear.
There's no--
You look back up and everything is exactly the same sans the constant rectangle border around your field of vision. It's all clear. You can see just fine.
You had programmed so much shit into your glasses, chat devices and scanners and plenty more dumb crap you certainly didn't need but by god you were going to try to shove in anyway-- that you rarely ever took them off. You didn't even stop to wonder how literal your light creation is or how it functions. You create your own light. You're the light. It's you.
Made of light. What a fantastic pun.
You look back up at the horrorterrors and imagine light. Light light light. I can see you, you fucks.
I can see you.
I see
You don't realize how fucking shit that idea was until your eyes are burning-stabbing and you're screaming and clawing uselessly at your face with dumb dull people fingers, ear-shattering noises wavelengths of wavelengths frequencies not possible not discernible impossible ricocheting around your skull with such force you want to vomit and explode and vomit again.
“Hoist by your own petard,” is probably what you would have told yourself if you weren't leaking something out your face and stumbling, catching your foot on an edge and plummeting down down
You wake up with such a violent start you're already halfway across the room before It becomes too much and you collapse to your knees, vomiting acid right there in the entry way where you will have to walk across many times later.
You're sobbing, choking on bile and sobbing, sounds of bloodcurdling shrieks and complete hopelessness and despair singing right against your eardrums, tearing at the seams. You hear them howl and grieve and suffer but worse than that you know they grieve, you know their pain as if it were yours and the endless expanse of warped disgusting despair forcing open your ribcage is too much for you to process. The horrorterrors Are and Will Be but they die and they live and Are
You weren't supposed to know. You weren't supposed to see.
You manage to make it back to your bed, where you immediately curl up on yourself, struggling to hide under your ridiculously over-sized quilt which is suddenly and unfairly super heavy. You barely hear yourself gasping for breath, dizzy, and the ringing in your ears is taking its time fading like a jackass. You don't want to know or see anymore. Just fucking blind me, you rattle inwardly. Tear my eyeballs out. I fucked up I fucked up I get it I hath tampered with forces man was not meant to grope around for just make it stop.
You squeeze your eyes shut, attempting to will away the throbbing pain, and see inky black-- warping and swirling. A physical shape, moving impossibly at all corners but solid and real.
You know immediately that it's reaching out to you, just as you reached out to it and broke the threshold separating both of your existences simply by creating your own clarity.
You meet in the middle.
