( CODA )

               She’s used to being stared at. Gawked at, even. It comes with the territory of fame: both men and women alike had a habit of getting starstruck around her. Granted, mostly at her meet and greets: people usually took photos in public as opposed to completely shutting down. That’s what she gets for just trying to talk to someone out of the blue, but honestly, she hadn’t expected to find a fan here. That’s her assumption with this reaction: he must be a fan.

               “Sorry! Did Misa Misa startle you? It was an accident!”  She bows, but it’s a quick gesture. In no time, she’s straightened her posture with her hands held up, an energetic smile on her face. She’s able to go full-force into idol mode without even thinking about it, now-a-days.  “I’m looking for someone who can help me! A student or teacher or… anyone, really! I thought maybe you could lend Misa Misa a hand—”

              " Oh! Uh - Um, " he's even more stunned when she bows, and even further when she speaks. She's way different in real life than on the TV ! He's so glad that noone from his class is here to see him, pretty much make a fool of himself in front of her.

             " No it-it's not your fault! It's uh --- well, " it's his fault. He's beating himself up right now! He's a hero in training he shouldn't stumble and falter, when a pretty girl is introduced even if she is super famous.

              ( Shape up kid! Shape up! )

          HE WAS CAUGHT OFF GUARD, the moment their training session halted abruptly, let alone having such request echoing his ears. He felt the features upon his face almost betraying the customary expression that he had, but alas— he retained everything, including the eternal smile of his.

                ❛ —- There’s a few things I could say about All for One.                          But I can’t say the exact same for Tomura Shigaraki’s case. ❜

          MIRACULOUSLY, he remained composed after professing such names. In a way, he could sense a similar emotion in Izuku’s voice. Whilst he had acknowledged the INEVITABILITY of it, he couldn’t bear witnessing such strong emotions emitting from a young individual. Perhaps it was too soon. Perhaps he was exaggerating. —– Who knows.

                  ❛ Why the sudden question, young Midoriya? ❜

              This quirk is his now, that's a resounding fact, an echo a spark that consumes every muscle fiber. This legacy is his now --- and with it comes all the burdens and struggles of past users. Of All Might. Of his mentor. Of hers and theirs and theirs --- and it all leads back to All for One. The creator of the quirk.

              He can feel destiny, like a chorus swelling up, telling him that soon it will be he who has to face down All for One, and the one who will inherit it too. The villain with a quirk that could turn people into dust.

              " I -- I can do better with it. I just need to train more its --- " his nerves are on fire and he's shaking with ( what is it now? fear, anxiety, regret? ) before the other. The being.

              He has a name. The other. All for One. But could he easily not be referred to as god, a being that gives out powers to those who are now less than human, grovelling ont heir feet.

hey here’s some more quirkless!izuku headcanons ! 

it takes him quite a bit to warm up and be accepted into Class 1 - A. He is the new kid after all and he did kick out one of their previous classmates ( even if it was m*inetta ), though they are all impressed by his performance in the sports festival.

his relationship with katsuki is even more strained and everyone in the class can see it

he bonds first w/ Ochako. Then with Kaminari. After that everything else seems to follow.

Izuku doesn’t train w/ Grand Torino instead he trains in Hosu City with Iida and Manual. Manual is estatic to train Izuku and Izuku is estatic to train under him but does wish he could train w/ All Might.

Training goes well with Izuku picking up a lot. And everything is great until the Hero Killer Stain and the Nomu invade.

Izuku follows after Tenya but is obviously slower than the other. And when he sees the situation where Tenya is being beaten down by Stain interferes. 

Everything in the fight goes exactly the way its supposed to it’s just in the fight Izuku gets hurt a LOT more because of his lack of quirk. His body becomes heavily scarred during the incident. The incident between Shigaraki and Izuku still happens.

In the final exams Izuku is paired with Bakugo and the fight goes just as well as you’d expect and even suffers greatly as Izuku fails the final exam. Does he hold up his own against All Might? Yes. Does he try his best? Yes. Does it work? Nope.

He, Kaminari, Bakugo, and Ashido fail the final exams but are able to head forward into the training anyways. Izuku and Bakugo’s relationship? Yikes. Yikes. 

Izuku takes the training extremely serious focusing more on his CQC he also takes on support items for ranged attacks ( think battarangs ) and gets a grappling hook on his wrist for extra speed ! He trains heavily with Yayaoruzu and Sero and becomes closer to the two. 

The training camp arc takes a major turn as Izuku is the one captured by the Leauge of Villains 

Shigaraki is obviously annoyed but does remember Izuku as the one who made such a stellar example during the sports festival and decides that taking the QURIKLESS HERO UNEQUAL and making him a villain would show off UA’s failure even better.

When the heroes show up. Izuku is able to hold his own from the Leauge of Villains but not for the longest while and soon it becomes them beating down on him. It’s only thanks to Katsuki, Tenya, Sero, Yayaorozu and Kirishima, and Kaminari that he’s saved as they replicate the maneuver canon made to save Katsuki. 

              " Could you share it with me --- maybe from a safer distance ! Like from jail. " her obsession in him was, he'd by lying if he didn't say at least intriguing at the same time terrifying. Himiko was --- cute but she was a villain and way more importantly hurt Ochako and Asui.
