A Room Full of Your Posters is a Boku no Hero Academia fanfic by Krombopulos_Will. It is a darkfic with an unhappy ending and an example of the popular villain!Deku trope. There are no ships.

The fic is tagged with non-romantic relationships between Midoriya and All Might, as well as Midoriya and his mother. It takes Midoriya's traits of never giving up and admiring All Might and turns them into flaws. Midoriya believes throughout the fic that he can only become a hero if he gets a conversation with All Might validating his desires, and he slowly becomes a stalker in order to obtain this.

The title is a reference to the song Stan by Eminem.

Summary

Villain!Midoriya. The slime villain didn't attack. Bakugou never needed rescuing. No wondrous event proved he deserved All Might's Quirk. He was still desperate to know whether a Quirkless boy could become a hero.

If only there were some way to get All Might's attention...

Probably one of the most realistic villains dekus I've read. A severely mentally ill kid who never got help and lashed out accidentally. Really sad here I actually have a pit in my stomach. The ending is what made this story. 5/5 stars. [Rest of review removed for a specific question that may count as a spoiler]
