#ask nedzu

[deusvervewrites]

Admittedly it’s more of a canon invention, but do you think Nezu gets a little lonely with a “cackling rat god” reputation and all that?

Or just like the typical amount of lonely being a world famous philosopher/principal/political activist/sapient rat?

You ever think about how Nedzu is the only one of his kind? How we're never even told what species he is, but no other member of that species, if there are any, would have human-level sapience the way that he does.

Nedzu isn't human, but he doesn't really have a home to go back to either.

Functional, Nedzu is an Endling.

for pez dispenser debris, has the third sports festival not happened yet or did it happen and it just wasn’t as cool as the second one

Ehhh, this one is kind of a loose thread I’ve been leaving open to do something with if I come up with something cool, but in my mind I’ve sort been playing with the idea that Class 3-A didn’t compete their third year.

The rest of the year didn’t want to compete with them for reasons of personal safety (they were all completely insane and known biters) and the school didn’t want to let them compete for reasons of legal liability. Literally every single year they had competed, these kids had tried to kill each other on live tv. Izuku and Todoroki had tried to murder specifically each other twice. Uraraka put Bakugou in a medically induced coma after their second match. Every single year they cut it closer to a fatal injury, and considering the year before involved a medically induced coma, they thought their luck might just run out the third time around.

There were also safety concerns about just how much information they were letting out about these kid’s Quirks. Before, it wasn’t as much of an issue? The UA sports festival was big, don’t get me wrong, but it usually resulted in the high performers getting recognized by a few more dedicated heroics fans for a few days after the event. Other heroics students looked at them so they could kick their ass in exams, but villains weren’t exactly bothered enough by heroic students to actually study them up in advance of their debut. But for Class 3-A? Villains were watching them.

And the Sports Festival just didn’t do for them what they needed it to anymore. It was meant to be an advertisement of their ability. A way to say “hey, look out for me,” and get agencies, the press, and the public primed for their careers. Class 3-A doesn’t need help with any of that. They are already too famous. But Class 3-B and the rest of their year? They could use a time to shine.

Class 3-A sort of sucks the fucking air out of the fucking room, honestly. Especially for Class B. Like. They are part of the most famous generation of heroes to come out of UA. And they are the less impressive, mostly unknown class. The rest of the school sort of has mixed feelings about Class 3-A. They’re proud of them, but it sucks being their classmates.

There’s nothing to be done about it. Class 3-A has just taken way too big a position in the public eye. The school could put the entire year on with them as usual and give them no special treatment, and the news would still only give a shit about what 3-A did. They’re actively detracting from their classmate’s abilities to get noticed, because everyone’s too busy fawning over one class out of eight.

The teachers also had to have a serious conversation about how including Class 3-A legitimately introduced concerns of societal destabilization. Aizawa had to take some deep breaths to will his way through that conversation.

Again, after their second year, the public started considering Class 3-A a source of new hope—with Izuku at the forefront as the next symbol of peace. A huge amount of that and to do with the miracle they pulled off handling the Tartarus Prison Break. But specifically Izuku came out of the entire mess with a lot of global hope riding on his shoulders.

He was the new unbeatable hero. The world had lost the guy who could be counted on to win any fight when All Might retired. But there was Izuku, shiny and bouncy and fresh to fight, whose Quirk was everything All Might’s was and more. And he had won fights that during Yokohama that no one thought he would win.

Taking down the Fatal Five was a big part of it. I have all this lore built up in my mind around them, these fanfictions villains who only exist in my head and are only based off canon in the loosest sense. It’s so dramatic in my head. There’s espionage. There’s betrayal. There’s gay love. I can’t get into that it’s too far afield. But when they were active, people were legitimately afraid of going outside. They were the only villains that All Might noticeably relied on help to defeat, because Sir Nighteye was so fundamental to their final capture.

Defeating them without All Might seemed more likely than defeating All for One and the League, but not by much. It was expected to take months, if not years, to recapture them again. These were villains who were credited with hundreds of fatalities—and the confirmed injuries clocked at over a thousand. They were city destroyers during their first run. People were absolutely fucking terrified of them doing it all a second time.

Izuku and Mirio pulled off an absolute Hail Mary play with their takedown. No one thought they would win, including them. They couldn’t let these guys go without a fight, but they also thought that they probably weren’t making it out the other side of this match. They weren’t aiming to die, but that just made this a kamikaze where they hoped to survive the plane crash. They went into this fight expecting to both die.

They understood that they lost this match up 99 times out of 100. But they told themselves that they just needed to find the one time they won and make it tonight. And just barely, through a lot of luck, they managed it. People lost their minds when news broke that the Fatal Five had been defeated by two teenagers.

And as stated in a different post, Izuku gets primary credit for taking down all of them because most of the fight happened where no one could see it and people love to discredit Mirio’s abilities. Not everyone thought that way, but the ones that did? They thought it was a sign Izuku would be better than All Might. Izuku did it without help. Even though, objectively, this was very much a two man job.

It was enough to make the world start hoping that Izuku was their new unbeatable hero. He had already won fights that should be unwinnable. So if he could beat the Fatal Five, then maybe he can beat every other opponent he faces. Maybe he can replace All Might.

What happens if that kid fucking loses a low stakes sparring match?

As it stood, Izuku, Todoroki, and Bakugou were considered the most likely to win the third year’s festival. But the other kids were fantastic, and they had a shot still even if it wasn’t as good. So how does the world react if some random fucking kid in class b manages an underwhelming victory after Izuku fumbles it?

Izuku’s existence in pez is basically that wad of napkins you wedge under the short leg of a wobbly table to try and make it stay level but like. For global social stability. Class 3-A rolling up to Yokohama and throwing hands with a bunch of adult murderers and somehow fucking winning is the reason why this Japan isn’t at the Refugees In UA And Chaos In The Streets portion of canon. They were so sparkly and inspiring and heroic that the entire country unified around loving and believing in them and shit stabilized. And everyone stopped freaking out about what they were going to do without All might because the next one was already in the pipe.

So what the fuck do you do if your new unbeatable mega celebrity hero fucking eats it at his friendly school sparring match and proves to everyone that he is, in fact, fallible on live TV? What if the entire class has an off day and does poorly, thereby undermining the current reason the world has for hope?

You’ve got a class that’s so unprecedentedly important that the school has to field phone calls from world leaders feeling out what the situation is with the ol’ sports festival. The fuck do you do about it?

It became almost unfair to the other students to make them fight against Class A, which is what Present Mic said and immediately got both Aizawa and Vlad King violently mad at him.

Aizawa, because he has started to profoundly resent the implication that his kids somehow need to atone to the rest of the school. Admittedly they’re all completely insane and do bite but that’s unrelated to why the rest of the school resents him so it’s a nonissue. Fuck everyone, it’s not their fault that adults have tried to kill them since like their fourth day of school, and UA has never handed out participation medals. If they wash out against his kids it’s because they just weren’t as good.

Vlad, meanwhile, was angry at the implication that his kids weren’t as good as Class A and needed to have them taken out of the running entirely to even stand a shot. Fuck you.

There was a lot of yelling.

But Mic just meant that it was unfair to pit them against Class A in the eyes of the public. Like, hey kids, let’s have a good ol’ fashioned competition for fun, do your best, but just as a reminder that if Midoriya from class a doesn’t win then it may legitimately destabilize the nation. Yeah the ministry of finance called he’s worried about the economic ramifications. But don’t worry, because no one really thinks you’ll beat him anyway. Now let’s all get out there and have fun.

It just felt like it set everyone up to fail while giving villains more footage to find potential weaknesses with. The school decided to just cut them from the competition, which Aizawa shouted at a lot of people about, even though he wanted them cut when the conversation started. He wanted the world to have less of them to chew at, and then he got mad at the implication that his kids somehow would be a problem if they got to participate in a school wide event. He talked himself all the way around to the other side out of spite.

They told Class A that they had lost privileges to the sports festival because they had repeatedly tried to murder each other and also everyone else on live TV, which was fair, really. The school didn’t trust them to not almost kill each other again, which was a concern Class A understood and agreed with, because they were totally going to do that. Plus Ultra, Sensei.

I think they let the kids do like an escape room or something just so they wouldn’t be totally left out, which they ended up televising to quell some of the backlash after they announced Class 3-A would not be participating in that year’s sports festival. It didn’t endear them to the rest of their classmates, because Class 3A Tries To Leave A Room In Groups of Five With Only Marginal Success turned out to be more popular than the sports festival. It bred some resentment amongst the other students, because to them, it seemingly confirmed that the faculty thought of them as lesser than class 3-a.

In the school’s defense, they did have concerns about someone actually murdering the other on live tv and having to deal with the liability. Through sheer luck of the fucking draw, Izuku and Bakugou had never had to do a one on one match with each other for two years running. They couldn’t possibly be that lucky a third time, and someone would die, and the stadium would probably be destroyed in the process, and bystanders would die, and what would they say in the lawsuit? Oh, we didn’t know they’d do that? They try to do that every time. They thought that doing a nice escape room involving no physical contact whatsoever would prevent injuries.

There were still injuries.

[kyucipher]

how did your oc and all might meet? are they only dating or married?

Well, lucky for you (and for me), I actually made some fake screenshots about their first meeting a long time ago!

(Don't mind the old ass art lol)

Leiko has been an All Might fan for the longest time, but they only really met him when he became a part of the staff! That day was... very eventful.

And for the second question, they're not really married, but do act like a stupidly cheesy old couple. They'll definitely get married in the time skip though!

[delawaredetroit]

Seeing that Nedzu was also pushing for Mirio to be All-Might's successor is interesting. It certainly breaks the fanon idea of Nedzu possibly being fond of Izuku and appeared to have a similar thought process like Nighteye. It makes me wonder if Hori unintentionally made Nedzu into someone who was subtly opposed to Izuku as well, since we never see Nedzu offer any advice to Izuku on controlling OFA or anything regarding heroics despite having the most powerful quirk in existence.

Nedzu's non involvement in the plot is strange given that he has the least involvement by far of anyone who was in on the One for All secret from the beginning of the manga. How did he even get that intel in the first place? He and All Might don't seem particularly close. With Recovery Girl, given her age and long career at UA, it's easy to connect the dots that she probably knew about One for All from either Nana or Gran Torino. But with Nedzu, why would he even know about that?

I don't think Nedzu was trying to sabotage Izuku. Nedzu probably didn't have a problem as long as All Might picked a UA student. Izuku also fits that criteria. For his own professional reasons, it makes sense Nedzu would want the next symbol to be a UA alumni. My general impression is that Nedzu started taking steps to introduce Mirio and All Might because All Might was dragging his feet on picking a successor too long.

What's confusing is that despite being a smart, experienced educator and knowing that Izuku was new to his quirk, why did he allow Izuku to be assigned to Aizawa's homeroom class of all places?

Bats and MHA World Building

For those of y'all who aren't familiar with MHA, the HPSC is the government agency in that world that manages their heroes. Therefore, heroes are basically super powered cops (they are government sanctioned enforcers).

I've always been curious how the Bats would view that system. It's been proven that HPSC is corrupt and not to be trusted. Gotham is extremely corrupt, especially the police force.

The Bats definitely would not become licensed heroes. In that world, they may become vigilantes instead. Would they fight heroes, though? Would they fight the HPSC?

I kind of want a MHA AU (not crossover) that examines the Bats and their ideology with government, licensed heroes, corruption, and quirks.

[the-void-speaks]

Daigoro for the “give me a character” ask game? ;D

whoa an ask :O

welp, i must oblige:

How I feel about this character: I love him. he's the father ever. i want more screentime for him tho

All the people I ship romantically with this character: hikage, the oc i have for ens mum, yasuka (yasuka's not very nice tho), and a todoroki ancestor (again oc), takibi (takibi would've been so much nicer to him lol)

My non-romantic OTP for this character: blackwhip's had his back from the start (sentient quirks lets go), but also hikage and him as bsfs went hard. then the divorce happened. also, the father ever, he loves his son (en).

My unpopular opinion about this character: he went to ua. i think the concept of heroes likely wasnt popular until nezu opened it (immortal rat god satan), and vigilantes were often seen/branded as criminals for either being so reckless or for putting people in danger with their metapowers/quirks (its the transitional period between terms). then nezu popularised it, people started seeing them in a better light, and then they started herding vigilantes into taking licenses from the hpsc

One thing I wish would happen/had happened with this character in canon: literally anything, GIVE US INFORMATION, SHOW US HOW HE GOT OFA, how did he meet hikage?? why did he pick en as his successor???

thanks for the ask anon!! ^^

[jp---v]

Hi

If you were a reporter in MHA and could get an interview with any character, who would it be and why?

Ok... this might be unexpected, but number one might be Principal Nedzu.

I wanna know what the fuck he was thinking with some of his choices while running UA. He has an intelligence quirk and couldn't redesign the entrance exam to apply to noncombat quirks? The budget is insane. Why does the school only rely on a single old woman's quirk when constantly putting their students in dangerous situations in the name of training? Why did he let the R-rated hero teach a bunch of teenagers?

How many of the teachers are actually qualified to teach? Like, how many if them have teaching licenses? The teachers that do the core classes (Math, Language, etc)and Power Loader are the only ones I don't doubt(even if Power Loader needs to be stricter with safety standards). The actual Hero courses, basically, are the ones I have questions about.

Why not get some non-hero staff to teach the core subjects and expand the classes so you can take advantage of the massive amounts of applicants they get every year? Let the hero teachers focus on the hero-specific classes like training or law, abd put normal teachers on the other subjects. It gives them more time to do actual hero work too. Not to mention, top hero school in the country yet you only have up to 40 hero students per year. That's less than half of the total students! Gen Ed, Business, Support, all make up more than the hero course in a school that's supposed to be a hero school.

Also, just... what is he? Harmless curiosity, but the running joke of his mysterious species gets me.

[thebnha-auhoard]

NEW AUS?! OOOOH I pick the funniest one you have out of the mystery two!

We'll do you one Better! I Mod Asphodel, Shall Introduce the Hazbin Hell School au! All of the Classes are Hell born. (Some have Sinner blood but that's it). 1-A is united under a single sinner. The massive panther of a sinner making a deal with two Devils Lucifer and a certain Rat, for Territory and supplies to teach a class of kids as a test. Nedzu Encouraging it in the hopes to bring better unity between Rings.

Aizawa now has a Class! He did not expect his class to have 2 Kids of Hell princes(Momo and Todoroki, 2 Ars Goetia Children(Bakugo((Furcas)) and Tokoyami((Unknown))), A grandson of one of the most Infamous Overlords(AFO) know to steal and own souls Who is also adopted by the One Who No longer Feasts(Yagi) Heir apparent of The OFA Overlords((Izuku)) and Many more Hybrids and Hell Born. Satan have mercy on his damned soul this is going to be Chaotic as they prepare during the next six months until Extermination.

Now I Pass this to Mod Kiwi! Pokemon Time!

Pokémon au. Me and mod Boreal got incredibly unhinged with Pokémon and we completely made an au where there are no Quirks and the characters all lived in a world of Pokémon. Not a lot of people are dead in this au. Even the OFA Users are alive in this au. We really just put everyone in the world of Pokémon, give them Pokémon, and throw them on their wacky adventures and I went unhinged and made all the Gym Leader teams in Showdown.

Of course then me and Boreal decided to go for plot and we became more unhinged and now here we have All For One as the Leader of the Evil Team while the League does CRIME.

(ghost of boreal here, pokemon is like imagine if there was politics in pokemon colosseum and so you are technically forced to go the gym marathon in the other neighboring region, don't mind the tension slowly and literally feeling the air i'm sure it is fine-)

Like Boreal said. Politics in Pokemon and kidnappings where 7 out of 8 gym leaders in Bakugou and Midoriya’s region are missing so they have to go to the neighboring region to do it. And they have to fight two extra Gym Leaders instead of the usual 8. Fun.

Please go and ask us about our aus we were all incredibly unhinged as we made them

[just-a-normal-regretter]

tell me about coldheart!!

Yippee! Thanks for asking! o7

Coldheart:

The one where Shoto has to go through half of his character arc pre-Sports Festival or else he can't attend UA, and he's very much Not A Happy Camper About All of This

Multiple POV shifting but I'm mainly sticking with Reigen & Shoto. There will be others (tm) involved in this portion of the story.

I aim for a series of "past/present" reflecting so I can toss in some MP100 situations that shifted slightly due to being fused with the BNHA-verse

Mob, as much as I really want to write him more, will be popping in and out to give the readers some hint dropping for the third story of the series haha

This story is mainly just "transitioning" and "how to expand your horizons when you're forced to". Reigen and Shoto go through this change even if Reigen's not going to share with the kids that, well, he got blackmailed into this lol

He's still going to help either way, no matter Shoto's frosty attitude (or w/e happens with the other kids in future fics)

Endeavor v Reigen is something I'm lowkey excited to do even though I feel it's going to be a pain to write LOL (the reason you suck speech... beautiful...)

getting away with MP100 characters interacting with Shoto since Reigen's UA office isn't set up yet >:)

also also I think I mentioned this but Reigen is Teru's guardian and we get more on this relationship (cause I imagine neither are very... gung-ho about it despite their agreement that this can help Teru out a ton)

ending of this fic is pretty much "the end of the transition" (i.e. the start of UA; the start of Reigen Being Stressed About 20+ Kids What The Hell)

One last bonus thing: Thinking of capping the series off at Kamino. Take that as you will from this chat about coldheart & earlier entries haha

Thank you for the ask o7 o7 o7

[fatkish]

Hey!!!! Could i please an thank you req headcanons for pro heroes and their kid telling them they like another hero over them??? i just think itd be rlly cute haha

Pro Heroes x Child Reader: Asking Their kid who Their Favorite Hero is

Midnight:

When she asked you who your favorite hero was you happily shouted Present Mic. Although she kinda sweatdropped at the thought of Hizashi, she smiled and still agreed that he’s a good hero.

All Might:

When reporters asked you who your favorite hero was, since All Might is your dad, you happily replied with Endeavor. When asked why, you replied with fire is super cool and he make bad guys pee their pants cause he’s scary. All Might had to hide his frown and cried later that night. Endeavor who has caught the tail end of the interview, laughed at it

Sir Nighteye:

When he asked who your favorite hero was you replied with Gang Orca. This started a long Argument between the both of you on who’s better, All Might or Gang Orca.

Endeavor:

He isn’t really the type to care about this kind of thing but when you replied with Fatgum, he wasn’t expecting that. You told him that he’s your favorite because Fatgum is cute and squishy looking.

Hawks:

When he asked you who your favorite hero was, expecting you to say daddy, he was shocked when you said Edgeshot. He regrets asking since you started to argue with him on why Edgeshot is cooler than him.

Fatgum:

When he asked you who your favorite hero was you told him it was Mirko since she kicks butt. He laughed and happily agreed seeing you excitedly reenact her fights

Present Mic:

When he had you on his radio show he asked you who your favorite hero was you told him it was Nighteye since he’s smart. If he wasn’t on air at the time he would’ve been crying and explaining to you that your dad’s smart too

Aizawa/Eraserhead:

When you told Aizawa that your favorite hero was Present Mic, the only reaction you could see was a slight eye twitch, but you giggled and then told him it was a joke and that he’s your favorite since he doesn’t need his quirk to beat a villain. Plus he’s your dad so that automatically makes him the best. He just smiled and gave you a hug and kissed your forehead

Best Jeanist:

When he asked you who you’re favorite hero was you told him you don’t really have a favorite since you think heroes are kinda lame. You told him you liked Nedzu since he could probably bring humanity to their knees. He became kinda worried about you after that answer.

Mirko:

When you told her your favorite hero was Ryukyu because dragons are cool. She smirked and said that she thinks Ryukyu is cool too and asked if you wanted her to arrange a meeting so you could meet your Idol. You screamed in delight and hugged your mom’s leg begging her to do it.

Gang Orca:

When he asked you who your favorite hero was you replied with Black Manta. He sweat dropped and told you that 1.) he’s not real and 2.) he’s a villain. You looked at him with a straight face and said he’s cool like your dad. He’s now a little worried about you

Edgeshot:

When Edgeshot asked you who your favorite Hero was you replied with Itachi Uchiha. He looked you dead in the eye and said that Itachi isn’t real. You then began to explain how Itachi is a better ninja than your dad. Edgeshot listened and was happy that you admired a good person and at least you didn’t favor villains

Kamui Woods:

When he asked you who your favorite hero was you told him Deadpool and Spider-Man. When he told you they aren’t real you told him he didn’t ask for whether they were real or not. You told him you like how they’re funny and that you want to be like Spider-Man.

[deusvervewrites]

Homeroom Teacher Nedzu x Substitute: Nedzu was about to introduce himself to 1-A when he saw a smiling Aizawa enter the classroom and, by golly, he just wanted to see what would happen next!

Oh that rapscallion

[polysyndetonaddictsupportgroup]

hi!! let me start this by saying that I love your writing to bits and I'm having a blast with all the extra info we're getting with the asks!!

im case you're still answering them, and since so far no one has taken the bait, I gotta ask: what's up with Hatsume's class and their obsession with Mirio in pez dispenser debris? and do Power Loader and Aizawa have some sort of support group?

(I'll sneak in that it's really funny to me that you wrote pez dispenser debris while procastinating studing for the bar exam, because I was also studing for the bar exam at the time you started posting it, and I procastinated studing by reading it 🤝)

WERE YOU THE PERSON WHO MADE A COMMENT ON ONE OF THE ORIGINAL POSTS ABOUT HOW YOU WERE READING IT AS A BREAK FROM STUDYING

Hatsume Mei and the rest of the support class insist they’re just joking about the religious cult aspect of it all but also everyone’s sort of nervously laughing in the corner because the entire school is increasingly certain that they’re not joking. Basically, Hatsume Mei has such fucking weird girl energy that she has brought a religious fervor to the invention of support technologies. It is a holy mission dedicated to making tech that is sick as fuck. Hatsume Mei infected them all with her maniac energy and they all started acting like her about it.

Power loader doesn’t know what happened okay this class is insane it’s insane and he was busy putting out all the literal fires and then one day he realized they were call each other Sibling and there was a shrine to a wrench with googly eyes in the corner of the room and when he tried to take it down all the students just stared at him, unblinking and still, with hammers and saws in hand, and there’s a white board? No one can use? Because they are manifesting the coming of their Chosen One? He is afraid?? He goes to the Hound Dog and he says “Hound Dog you are the guidance counselor and these kids they need some guidance please go guide them I don’t want to get out of my car in the school parking lot each morning I’m afraid man I’m afraid” and Hound Dog goes to them and he says “heyyyyy kids what’s. What’s up with all this.” And totally fucking normally those demon children all say “oh it’s just an inside joke” and so Hound Dog says to Power Loader “it’s just a joke man they’re kids let them have their fun” but it’s not it’s not a joke they all mean it now. He thinks they’re trying to lull him into a false sense of security so they can sacrifice him to the wrench. He is fighting for his fucking life over here.

He and Aizawa go drinking together every weekend.

One of the biggest issues with support technologies is how they interact with Quirks. Take Izuku. He is a nightmare to make support gear for. Everything just fucking breaks on him. Do you have this sick fucking electroshock bracelets you want him to try out in the field? Haha, no you don’t. You have useless shards of incredibly expensive and completely irreparable plastic and steel. He threw one punch and they blasted off of his body in seven different pieces. Sorry xoxoxoxo.

Mirio, before he was Quirkless? Utterly useless to design anything for him. It’d just fall off his body. They spent every day fighting for their lives to keep his pants on and never even had the option of support items past that.

It’s like that with everyone. You invented these sick fucking gloves that let you climb walls like spider-man? Well they’re not compatible with Bakugou’s Sweat Powers, so fuck that I guess. Like. Some heroes could use some gear, but frankly? Most of their day was designing clothes they could wear without accidentally blasting them off their bodies. Iida was a constant, secret battle against chafing. Before Mirio was Quirkless, they were busting out a loom to weave his own hair together. Everyone had some kind of absolutely disqualifying quality of their quirk that made half their prototypes useless.

They were sick of it. The vast majority of people who became heroes had flashy quirks, and the vast majority of flashy quirks are fucking nightmares to work with. It was ruining their creativity.

Don’t you ever want to go nuts? Full throttle? Plus Ultra? They wanted to stop fighting the Seven Hundredth Battle Against Iida Tenya’s Thighs and start inventing the kind of bullshit that is only legal because the government doesn’t even know to ban it yet. It was their calling. Their holy mission. Completely fucking thwarted by the fact that class a literally has a hero whose quirk means she has to be fully naked for max efficacy. What are they supposed to even do there? Nothing! They’re all so bored!

So they all started sort of joking about Tabula Rasa, the Blank Slate, a figure of prophecy who would come with the most perfect, inoffensive Quirk that was compatible with the most batshit fucking insane support tech they could dream up. Tabula Rasa was their Chosen One. One day, their god of steel and fire and turning and terrible, glorious change, It Who Watched What Wonderful Horrors They Wrought In Its Name And Never Blinked, would bring the Blank Slate to them.

And they were going to deck that guy out in the most unethical bullshit imaginable. They were going to reinvent the gun but cooler and more morally ambiguous for that guy.

Anyway Izuku knew about all this shit and said “oh we can exploit the fuck out of that.”

So he told Mirio to meet him outside of the first year support course workshop without providing any other relevant information whatsoever. Izuku just said that there was someone he thought Mirio should meet, brought him inside, and took him straight to Hatsume Mei. He very loudly introduced Mirio as a third year heroics student so that he could be heard over the din.

He’s Quirkless.

Hatsume Mei turned to Mirio and whispered, with tears in her eyes, Tabula Rasa.

The entire workshop fell into a sudden and eerie silence.

Make him Batman, Hatsume Mei, said Izuku, as if any of this shit were normal.

Hatsume Mei cried harder under the lights of the workshop. She looked Mirio up and down, as if to confirm, and again she whispered, Tabula Rasa.

Anyway Mirio had no idea what any of the ensuing chaos was at the time. There was a lot of weeping in a horrible climax of fear and joy and holding each other in trembling embrace. Lots of “the prophecy” and “I didn’t think I’d be alive to see it” and “I have to go find my blueprint for the gun that shoot knives.”

Hahah, kids.

Anyway, at that time, no fucking clue what was happening. But he knew the outcome would be sick as fuck. So he’s just been sort of going with it since then.

Power Loader immediately left the building and took a personal month. Nedzu asked Present Mic to help cover, who left crying after two hours. Aizawa has told him if he ever asks him for anything ever again, he will burn the building to the ground, and so Nedzu did not ask him.

So he just hired a new substitute teacher for every single day that that room needed staffing, close to all of whom quit teaching entirely after.

Anyway, that’s how Mirio affords support gear despite being independent and generally unpopular. Pretty much every time he swings by the main campus he receives a jet pack that also can control birds and maybe sharks too (they’re still beta testing the shark bit) and he says “Cool!” and puts it on his mortal body. Half of the support class is madly in love with him. However, Hatsume Mei, their High Priest, has stated that their god watches them all with its ever-jiggling eyes and has seen the lust in their hearts for the champion it bestowed upon them and rebukes it. She knows it’d tear them all apart if people started shooting their shot.

There’s no real narrative significance to that story. I just thought it would be funny if Mirio had a fuckton of support gear because he was a figure of religious importance to a it’s-a-joke-not-a-joke cult in the support class.

[writerswho]

Aizawa is a terrible teacher. I love Aizawa, but I love the fanon version of Aizawa. Even when he's a bad teacher in the fanfics, he's still better than the canon. But what made me realise what a crap teacher Aizawa is was Kalego. After watching Iruma-kun and starting to read the manga, I realised that Kalego, the uptight, grumpy, tired and kind of sadistic teacher who gives his students extra work just because he can, is everything Aizawa tries to be, but isn't. Because Kalego cares about his students in a way canon!Aizawa would never. Like, yeah, Aizawa would die for his students, but that is not due to the fact that his a good teacher. It is because he is a hero and that is what heroes do. While Kalego would also die protecting his students and even kill for them, he also pays attention to their needs as students. Half of the 1-A need help with their regular grades and the other half need help finding ways to use their quirks without hurting themselves. We all joke about Midoriya and his bone juice, but why does nobody think about giving that kid some extra help? Why didn't his homeroom teacher try to find a way for him to use his quirk without blowing himself? Or a way for Kamimari to use his quirk without frying his brain? Aizawa ignores de most basic things about his students' needs, like finding ways for them to use their quirks without damaging their bodies and health. Or the way Midoriya is around Bakugou, who tried to attack him on the first day and almost killed him on the second day. Kalego-sensei, on the other hand, took his time to make a personal notebook for each of his students and worried about finding ways to utilise their strengths regardless of how seemingly meaningless or nonsensical they may be and so many other things. Kalego-sensei cares about his class, about their growth and their future and is trying to find the best alternative for them. Everyone talks about what a bad teacher All Might is, but All Might is a rookie teacher with less than a year on the job (and nobody knows if he has a teacher's licence or not) while Aizawa is believed to be one of the oldest people on Nedzu's payroll. I am comparing Aizawa to Kalego because when I first saw Kallego, I thought he was the demon version of Aizawa. I now realise that if Aizawa were a third of the teacher that Kalego is, maybe these child soldiers would have a chance. When Iruma tried to do everything by himself/messed up, Kalego scolded him, obviously, but he made it clear that if Iruma had another problem, he could ask for help. Because Kalego is his teacher, and he's there to help him in any way he needs. But when Midoriya messed up/did everything by himself, well, they just yelled at him and made him feel guilty, and think that the solution isn't to ask for help or trust the adults next time, but to find a way not to get caught. Aizawa should spend a few days with Kalego and learn to be a real professional and a teacher who does what's best for the students.

Please!

AU where both Izuku and Bakugou are rejected from UA Hero Course.

And to make it juicy. The reason for the rejections is the suicide baiting incident being known by UA. While Bakugou is rejected for obvious reasons. Izuku is rejected for his ‘own safety’ and because they won’t trust his psyche went unscathed.

1- The thing about Bakugou is that he was not particularly well liked by his classmates at Aldera. Oh, he had friends, and no one was willing to stand up to him, but plenty of students had grudges about how he acted. They rolled their eyes when Bakugou went on a rant about being the only one who could make it to UA, or his lackeys hyped him up, but then they'd look away without a word when he caught them and glared. No one was going to say he wasn't powerful and couldn't do it, just like they weren't going to say Deku had any chance. Sometimes, capable people are also very annoying, and you just have to deal with that, so the kids did. And if a few were in a small group chat that would sneak pictures or videos to show the kids not in their class and complain, well, that's what the kids did. And then one day, one filmed the conversation after school, after Bakugou threw out the notebook, and posted it publicly, as well as in the chat.

2- nothing came of this. Izuku had either blocked or been blocked by a lot of his classmates online, and hadn't really bothered to look for most of them anyway, so neither he nor Bakugou are aware of the video. The sludge villain sort of happened an hour later, and that's what got the big media buzz- the news couldn't publish the names of the teens involved if they ever even had them, but locally, people at Aldera knew who the kids on tv were.

3- the next year, UA has its recommendation exams. Every student is meticulously background checked before even being accepted as an potential for the exam and interview. A couple weeks later, they have the standard exam. The background checks will happen after this- UA after all has a very prestigious image. Bakugou wasn't wrong that if he took his lackey's cigarette and UA found out, his chances would be gone. Unfortunately for him, the video was still online. Mostly forgotten about... Until it contained not one but two potential UA students.

4- Nedzu and the six hero course homeroom teachers are on the board of student admissions, but so are two others each from administration, public relations, the school board, and the heroics commission. The top fifty scorers are ruthlessly picked through. The video is watched. Some want to exclude Izuku, some Bakugou, some both. Nedzu would prefer to have them both enrolled in separate classes, but is outvoted. He doesn't warn the board this will mean All Might will not be staying on to teach - he really can't, without telling secrets, but he does warn All Might the next night, and gracefully accepts his resignation.

5- a week after the exams, acceptance and rejection letters are sent. These are simply written on paper. Apparently neither of them are a good fit for the school. No further reason is given. Bakugou spends one day in his room, quieter than ever, then rush applies to other schools. Shiketsu is supposed to be UA's equal. Perhaps their admissions process will be less rigid. Or perhaps his rise to number one is "supposed" to come from humble starts, and Aldera Middle School wasn't that, but some mid rank hero school is. Meanwhile, on the beach, All Might tells Izuku that he actually ended up with the most rescue points in the exam, and his score was high enough to place him in top ten... It was just the screenings afterwards that did it. Perhaps the school was concerned about his health, with him breaking nearly every limb. Or perhaps his incorrect quirk registration was a red flag- either way, it's things All Might blames himself for, Izuku is the one who passed the test, and with only a few hours of having OfA too. So All Might asks Izuku what he wants to do- try for another hero school nearby? Toshinori probably can't get a job there on short notice without being suspicious, but he'll work to train him every day after, and come up with some other excuse for why he's in the field less. Or, should he reach out to I-island? Toshinori's even willing to see about setting up a personal internship with himself or Gran Torino, though he really kinda hopes Izuku doesn't pick that one. Izuku bursts into tears and apologies, having only held them back this long out of shame, they hug, and Toshi tells Izuku to take his time deciding, it'll be all right, because Izuku is here and he has full faith in him, regardless of what UA admissions thinks.

[geeks-universe]

All Might would be lying if he said he wasn’t often in the nurse’s room.

It seemed like he couldn’t even breathe without having to visit Recovery Girl for something. And, if it wasn’t him, it was his successor. Together, the two of them made up about eighty percent of her traffic.

Not that she’d ever complain.

Well…

She did complain. Lots of times.

But, she meant it in the most loving way possible, and not in a way that would push him into neglecting seeing her out of shame for the scolding he’d get.

He was a bit dejected when he found himself walking to her little corner of UA once again. The pain in his scar was starting to flare up, and his class would be starting soon. He needed the extra boost to make it through his classes as the Symbol of Peace, and not the shell of the man.

Toshinori sighed, taking a seat on one of the empty beds. He was the only one in the room as he waited rather impatiently for Recovery Girl to return.

She didn’t keep him waiting long.

A flurry of movement caught his eye as the nurse ran into the room, only for him to realize it wasn’t his friend. His brow furrowed as he examined you.

You were young. Not so young that you’d be a student, but still decades younger than him. He didn’t recognize you, despite the fact that he’d familiarized himself with all of UA’s staff. Though, now that he thought about it, Nedzu had asked him a few days prior about revealing the secret of his weakness to a new staff member.

“Oh!” You exclaimed, running your hand through your hair. “I’m so sorry to keep you waiting!”

Cute.

That was his first thought.

Then, he immediately redacted the thought, not wanting to seem like some old creep hitting on a coworker who also happened to be far younger than him.

Still, the way you smiled breathlessly was cute.

Dammit.

“It’s okay,” he assured you, rubbing the back of his neck awkwardly.

“Anyways,” you turned to face him fully, taking a seat very close to him.

Even though your distance was professional, his heart raced at your proximity. Your smile was so bright it lit up the whole room.

“What’s up?”

He swallowed.

“Oh, um, I-I well…”

He struggled to find the right words- or any words, for that matter. Your gentle laughter interrupted his foolish attempts, and the sound was music to his ears. Red blossomed on his cheeks.

“You’re All Might, yeah?”

He hesitated, almost wishing he could deny it. Instead, he nodded, defeated.

“Recovery Girl told me you stopped by a lot,” you explained flippantly, fiddling with the clipboard that sat in your lap. “And the student, uh, Midoriya, I think?”

“Where is she?” He couldn’t help but ask.

“Am I not good enough?” You stuck your tongue out playfully.

His heart stuttered in his chest, and he desperately prayed you didn’t have a quirk that let you see that sort of thing.

“I- no, I’m sorry, she usually helps when I have pain.”

There.

He got through a sentence.

Your hand hovered over the scar that haunted him every day. He stopped breathing, watching you with wide eyes.

“She told me,” you offered in explanation, pulling your hand away. Air released itself from his lungs.

“I’m afraid I can’t heal you with a kiss, but I can give you some medicine.”

He was forever thankful that you turned your back to him. The brief image of you pressing your lips against his scar, so gently, intent on bringing reprieve from the pain, if only for a moment, was enough to nearly drop him to his knees.

It’d been such a long time since he’d let himself indulge in any sort of pleasure, and the innocent, yet playful, looks you were giving him had him running towards a new outlet.

“This should do the trick,” you proclaimed, a small orange bottle in your hand, that rattled as you moved back into his proximity. “Once every 6 hours, as needed.”

He meant to acknowledge you, but he was barely able to even wrap his fingers around the bottle before he was running from the room. The confused, slightly amused, look photographed on your face as he left made him curse himself over and over as he made a beeline for the staff room.

The room itself was mostly empty, save the occasional teacher locked in a battle with paperwork. Nobody paid him much mind though, except Midnight, who was slinking towards him rather mischievously.

“What’s got you all riled up?”

She had been beyond bored all day, and without any other excitement, she jumped at the opportunity of the first whiff of entertainment.

“Nothing.” Toshinori cleared his throat, setting the medication on the table in front of him. After a few seconds of careful consideration, he spoke again. “Did you know we have a new nurse?”

That caused the woman to perk up. She nodded enthusiastically, tapping her fingers along the smooth wood of the table.

“I met her this morning,” Nemuri confirmed, humming her approval. “Smart girl.”

At the intrigued look on the older man’s face, and the way he unconsciously leaned in at the new information, a plan formed in her mind. She had never once seen the famous All Might seem so affected by anyone, especially not romantically.

“And a little bit sexy.”

He blanched, and though he tried to play it off, the red painting his cheeks were more telling than anything he said.

“I got her number, probably going to try to bring her to our weekly outings on Friday.”

It was an open-ended statement, one Nemuri had hoped would prompt the number one hero to consider his attendance this week. It wasn’t uncommon for him to join the rest of the staff for their rendezvous each Friday, but it also wasn’t uncommon for him to mutter a half-hearted excuse and be noticeably absent.

“Where did you plan on going this weekend?” It was a tentative question posed by the blonde, and though there was a clear hesitance in it, there was also a definitive curiosity.

She really didn’t expect it to be this easy.

“I added you to the group chat for a reason,” Nemuri sighed dramatically, not really annoyed with him. He was a busy man, and as such, she’d placed it upon her shoulders to try and force him to relax to some degree lest the world of heroes and villains chew him up and spit him out.

The man at least had the audacity to look sheepish.

“Lucky’s, on Main,” she reminded him.

“Are we talking about Friday?” Hizashi sing-songed, his voice momentarily drawing attention, before the other staff members grumbled to themselves and carried on with their work.

“We are,” Nemuri confirmed, a wide smile pulling at her lips as she looked up at her long time friend. “Toshinori is going to be joining us.”

“I didn’t-”

“Hell yeah!” Hizashi nodded his head enthusiastically, clapping his hand against Toshinori’s back. “The new nurse is going to be there too, and I don’t know if you’ve seen her, but…”

Hizashi let out a low whistle, and the appreciation in his gaze caused Toshi to frown. The thought of his interaction with you was something common, and, well, not special, pulled his mood down a fair bit.

While Hizashi was none the wiser, Nemuri picked up on the sudden swing in joviality rather quickly. She quirked a perfectly sculpted brow, leveling her friend with an unamused stare.

“Zashi, you are not going to be drooling over my potential new friend all night.”

He shrugged unapologetically, conceding only when Nemuri pouted.

“Alright, alright, she’s off limits. You got it, boss.” The look Hizashi shared with Toshi went over the older man’s head. He was trying to convey something with the waggle of his eyebrows, but he couldn’t possibly conceive what.

And just like that, the tension was broken and the conversation returned to normal.

Toshinori kept thoughts of your interaction in the back of his mind, reminiscing on them when he was alone, but not allowing them to pervade his introspection through the rest of the week.

He avoided the nurse’s office too.

Partly because he didn’t want to make a fool of himself, and partly because the medicine you prescribed to him seemed to be working better than he expected. Maybe that was your quirk? He wanted to ask the other staff members about you, but he was being steadfastly tight-lipped when it came to any discussion of your person, especially when Nemuri would shoot him a knowing look anytime your name was brought up in conversation.

Friday came all too early, and Toshi had half a mind to cancel when his phone began buzzing with notifications from the group chat.

He scrolled through them idly, tugging at the collar of his white t-shirt a bit uncomfortably. Nemuri had not-so-subtly suggested that he wear something tighter fitting, and while he didn’t want to take her advice, he couldn’t help but follow it anyway. She was far better at understanding what people liked, and even though he tried to convince himself he didn’t really care what you thought of him, it didn’t work.

Most of the other staff members were talking about when they were going to be arriving and how they were getting there, but one message in particular stood out.

Unknown: Nemuri promised dancing, so I better not be disappointed.

It was you, had to be, as he had everyone else’s number saved in his phone. His heart beat a little faster, the familiar uneasiness pumping through his veins.

He should cancel.

He should really, really cancel.

If it weren’t for the fact that he was quite certain Midnight would actually murder him, he probably would have.

Alas, some incredible feat of strength had possessed him the entire drive to Lucky’s, and even further into the main entrance.

He nearly puffed out a breath of relief when he saw the familiar faces of his coworkers. You weren’t there yet, and he found himself able to relax for just a minute to adjust to the new environment.

It was a nightclub, but not one super high energy. There were enough tables and chairs that only the people dancing were standing up. The place was busy, but not overcrowded, and the dim lights still provided enough illumination to properly see.

“I was starting to think you weren’t going to show after all,” Nemuri offered as a greeting, a sly smirk on her features.

All Might took a seat at the large table they'd reserved just for them, placing his hands awkwardly in the space in front of himself.

Aizawa, who looked like he was sleeping, popped his head up long enough to slide a drink in the aforementioned place.

“You’re going to need it,” he grunted, dropping his head again.

Toshi blinked, tentatively reaching for the drink. He had never been a large fan of drinking, even less so after the injury. Still, he sipped at it, curiously swirling the bitter flavor in his mouth.

“Yo, yo, yo, look who I found!” Hizashi’s voice was louder than the music, his expression cocky as he held his hands open in flair.

Beside him stood you, your cheeks a little red as you tucked hair behind your ear. At UA you had been wearing standard, baggy scrubs. Here, however, you were wearing a tiny black dress that showed off the expanse of your legs. It fell to mid thigh, and the adjective “cute” that Toshinori had associated with you earlier was entirely wrong. You were…

He swallowed thickly, an unfamiliar tug in his stomach alerting him to a desire he’d buried deep long ago.

He was drinking up every bit of skin you had on display, and when he finally managed to respectfully avert his gaze, he met the suggestive gaze of Midnight.

Deciding to take Aizawa’s advice, he swallowed a large gulp of the offered drink, staring a hole into the table in front of him.

Nemuri wasn’t one to let a look that sinful be ignored however, and she gave you her sweetest smile.

“Sit by me!” She suggested frantically, gesturing you over to the seat directly by her, which just so happened to also be by Toshinori.

The air seemed to grow warmer with your presence as you occupied the previously empty seat.

“Sorry I’m late, guess I just lost track of time.”

Nemuri waved off your apology with a smile.

“Hizashi can get us drinks, I need a new one anyways.” The sound hero looked like he was about to protest, but then decided against it and walked towards the bar. “Everyone,” she introduced, “This is (Y/N). She’s a nurse.”

There were small greetings exchanged as you wriggled in your seat a little. “Thank you, but I’m not a nurse.”

That sparked some confusion.

“But you were in the…”

Toshi turned to you, nearly regretting it the moment he did. Were your eyes always so soulful, or was he just studying them very intently?

“I work with Recovery Girl,” you affirmed, assuring him that he hadn’t got medication from some random person, and you were in fact qualified to do so. “I’m a biochemist.”

“Oh,” Toshinori replied dumbly, not quite sure how to respond.

Keeping his gaze on you was even more difficult, and he turned away nervously.

“Toshinori went to college in America too,” Nemuri spoke for him, ignoring the heat that had crept up his cheeks.

That woman had really done her research.

“Yeah?“ You prompted, giving the man in question your full attention. He fought the anxiety in his chest as he maintained eye contact. “How’d you like it?”

“I loved it,” he admitted shyly, flicking his gaze to Nemuri often almost as assurance that he was engaging in conversation properly.

The smile she returned could only be described as prideful.

“I bet you got into all sorts of crazy adventures,” you enthused, resting your head on your fist as you prepared to hear whatever story he would tell.

Toshinori didn’t disappoint.

Once he started talking, reminiscing, he got more excited, more theatrical. Story after story he regaled a lifetime of adventure, and whenever he would ask about you, you would politely defer back to him.

Before he knew it, the bartender was yelling last call.

Your cheeks were a pretty red, tinted from the consumption of alcohol that you’d been steadily sipping on through the night. He had swapped after one drink, no longer needing the courage it offered once he found his rhythm.

Now, though, with the rest of the UA faculty long since retiring, and faced with the reality it was just the two of you, blood curdling fear settled in his bones. This was not, and had never been, his element.

The terror must have shown in his eyes however, as you murmured a soft, “Walk me home?”

Your eyes glistened beneath the length of your lashes, a premeditated pout forming on your wetted lips, as if there were a chance he could deny you anything.

He nodded mutely, trying to get words out, yet not able to form a sentence. His reply was enthusiastic enough for you, as you linked your arm in his and began walking, surprisingly steady despite the liquor.

“I’m glad you showed up,” you interrupted the silence, your voice cutting through him more than the crisp air.

“Nemuri said you don’t always come to these.” You explained further at his quirked brow.

“Not always, no,” he confirmed, finally able to find his voice.

It was difficult for him to concentrate on much past the warm, gentle grip of your hand. Each accidental bump of your body set his on fire.

[reallyromealone]

🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸

Quirks were fun.

Especially when you get a call that your toddler rearrange the structural design of a block into a pile of sand, causing the daycare staff to have to call the parent to said daycare.

"What did he do?" Aizawa asked exasperated as he and his husband sat with their three year old, (name) sporting a cool quirk suppressant bracelet for children as he played with his papas fingers and wedding band "well it seems he developed his quirk, he turned a wood block into sand and then his cookie into a ducky toy and began crying when he didn't have his cookie anymore" the head of the U.A daycare explained and the two teachers shared a glance.

(Name) Had his biological father's quirk.

"Thank you for telling us, if you could excuse us" Aizawa lifted the little one In his arms as they went to Nedzu, they knew this time would come but god they wished they had a bit more time. (Name) Was confused as his dad's looked serious "papa! I got my quirk!" (Name) Tried to make conversation with Yamada who smiled down at his son that was in Aizawas hold "yeah, now we gotta see uncle Nedzu to teach you how to use it" (name) looked confused but just went with it, uncle Nedzu was the smartest guy ever so...

"Uncle zuzu! I got my quirk!" (Name) Said excitedly as he was freed from his dad's hold and set in the ground, waddling/ running towards the principal "So I have been told little mouse, very exciting" Nedzu said handing a cookie to the child who went around his desk to see him properly since he wasn't able to see above the desk.

"The commission isn't to know about his abilities so we can work that to our advantage" (name) was sitting on the carpet with his toys, playing happily while the adults put their plan into action, the daycare trained and signed enough NDA's to make a judge sweat "We will begin quirk training immediately, if he can do something like that without breaking a sweat now... That's something to keep close tabs on"

It was well known that quirks could be more powerful through generations, evolving into something even bigger than itself and (name) had no reaction to using his quirk even by accident, turning wood to sand wasn't an easy feat after all.

"It will only be for an hour a day, he is still quite young" Nedzu showed them folders he had prepared, a very cohesive and airtight plan that had the parents impressed "there's even snack time" Aizawa said with a huff, it fit in for their pick-up time for Eri and everything.

"And if course I'll be there in case something happens" Aizawa said looking back at his son who was in his own world.

That night, Aizawa and Yamada sat with their tot and explained a little bit about his quirk, (name) was already mentally developing faster than they were expecting, they were sure that Kisaki did something to cause that as the boy seemed to be understanding things faster and better than his peers.

"I can make cookies..." The power (name) realized he has was a horrifying realization to the parents who couldn't help but laugh at the fact that making cookies was his first instinct.

"Use that power wisely" Yamada snorted as they went home, they had some things to order and have lunch, (name)s choice.
