The Loner Club by Zeptzy

Summary
The Loner Club was never able to keep more than one member.
Nejire Hado created it as a quiet refuge for people who didn't quite belong. Ironic, really. She had everything society admired—beauty, a powerful quirk, and a destiny that gleamed. But her endless curiosity, the barrage of questions, the intensity behind every interaction drove people away just as fast as her gifts drew them in.
So she built a place for loners. But even loners found her unbearable.
At no point did she ever expect someone like Izuku Midoriya to walk through the door.
A quirkless kouhai with a dream too big for his fragile body.
For one brief stretch of her third year, the club had two members. Two lonely kids sharing dreams in a forgotten classroom—a bond forged from mutual understanding.
Until she graduated, leaving him behind.
Years later, they are reunited at U.A.
But Izuku Midoriya is no longer the powerless boy she left behind.
And Nejire must face the truth she spent years running from.

Summary
When an object is still, it requires a force to begin moving. When it's in motion, it requires a force to come to a stop.
Callie loses her footing when external circumstances led to her drifting away from her cousin. She realizes this only when things seem hopeless, and in her desperation she slides down a spiral that terminates in her getting kidnapped by the Octarians.
Dedf1sh is complacent with her situation within Kamabo, given that she does not know what she could complain about. When everything else shuts off, she waits along with the defunct machinery, and it's only when she is found and brought to the surface that she is forced to adapt to something entirely unknown to her.

Summary
By the time a man realizes that maybe his father was right, he usually has a son who thinks he's wrong.
For Robert, that was V. For V, that was David. For David, that was dealing with the revelation that he now had a father in his life. Now had the man who was supposed to help raise him. Help him with his problems, and maybe extend the courtesy to his friends. So far, V had come through on most of that...albeit nearly eighteen years late. The man had given him and his mother improved places to live. Supplied him and his friends with plenty of gear and work to stay sharp.
But David knew V has his own problems to deal with. Corporate beauracy. Shades of his past casting shadows on the present that threatened to take away everything he had worked to build. V hadn't shied away from his problems, and David wasn't about to let the favor go unreturned.

Summary
In Night City, there’s always been violence, mayhem, and a general sense that death could quite literally be around the corner. That’s the rub for the most dangerous city in the world. Of course, no one expects to be one of those unfortunate souls until they’re staring down the barrel of a gun.
Adrian Walker was one of those people, content with his lot until his mother is killed in front of him, his arm and eye are destroyed, and his home is burned to the ground. With nothing left to his name but a gun and a choice, he must fight his way out of this predicament by any means necessary, both for his own sake and the sake of the only family he has left. He might not be special, and he might not be strong, but he is beyond determined to carve out a place and get revenge for him and his... or die trying.
But who is the man that saved him, and why did he agree to train him? Who did his gun belong to before his mother stole it? And who the hell is this short, crazy woman who keeps flirting with him?
Now with a TV Tropes page! Somehow. https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Fanfic/CyberpunkEdgerunnersTheRebelPath

System Override (Formerly: The Bloodsurge Edgerunner) by DaoistMystery

Summary
NB: I have crossposted this story to Royalroad under the title System Override.
A forced experimental drug treatment at an early age has saddled David with an immense burden.
His mother’s insistence on his current lifepath as a corpo has done much the same.
David is a speeding ball of fire hurtling towards an unknown destination, and his mother’s death has left him adrift and unsure of his direction.
So he does what any teenager with no more fucks left to give does—he chips in some mil-spec chrome and looks for a quick way to earn edds, all the while learning to utilize the nanotechnology that had been forced on him as a child—finding out the immense potential within him as a result.
Corpo or Edgerunner? Why not both? And why not the best of both while we’re fucking at it?
Top of Arasaka Tower.
Night City Legend.
