Where Can I Find Izu Momo Fanfiction With Crossover Themes?

Honestly, the crossover Izumomo scene feels pretty scattered lately. I used to find some solid ones on Archive of Our Own by filtering for 'Midoriya Izuku/Momo Yaoyorozu' and then adding fandom tags from other series, but the tagging system is so dependent on the writer's diligence. I had a whole phase hunting down stories where their support-student dynamic was merged with other tech-heavy or aristocratic settings—like a 'Dune' crossover where Momo's creation quirk interacted with spice production, which was wild. That one was on FFN, surprisingly, buried in a collection of My Hero fics.

Lately, I've had better luck on dedicated Discord servers for MHA fanfiction, especially the ones that allow channel creation for specific pairings. Someone in a server I'm in kept a pinned document of crossover recs, which included a few Izumomo stories crossing over with 'Fullmetal Alchemist'—the alchemy-equivalent rules for Momo's quirk made for interesting limitations. But you really have to wade through a lot of chatter to find those gems. Reddit's r/BokunoheroFanfiction sometimes has request threads where people drop links, but it's hit or miss; a lot of posts just get the usual 'check AO3' reply without actual links.

I think the real trick is to search for the other fandom first if you have a specific crossover in mind. Like, looking in the 'Fate/stay night' tag on AO3 and then filtering for MHA characters often surfaces pairings you wouldn't find if you started from the My Hero side. There's a pretty decent 'Izuku and Momo as Masters in a Holy Grail War' story that way, though it's more action-focused than romance. The algorithms on most sites don't make cross-fandom pairing discovery easy, so it ends up being this manual, grunt-work process of combing through tags and hoping the author remembered to tag both halves of the ship.

Crossovers for this pair are super niche. Your best shot is probably searching the Izumomo tag on AO3 and then scrolling manually, because a lot of authors won't use the 'Crossover' fandom tag—they'll just mention it in the summary. I remember one with 'Persona 5' where Momo was the navigator and Izuku the leader, which worked surprisingly well for their dynamic. It's a patience game, really. Discord servers for MHA fic sometimes have dedicated rec channels, but you gotta ask around to get invited.
