Choices
"Well well. This code is quite remarkable" Zencho's voice rings out. "Even I haven't managed to figure out how it all works. " Izuku quickly snaps awake to see his father fully healed sitting at the edge of his bed, Eri is snuggled up with Izuku still sound asleep next to him.
"Though, putting heroes' names directly underneath sketches of them might be a bit of a tip off in the future." He says before manifesting a pencil from thin air and going to a blank page. "Your design needs some changes from what you currently wear. One with your power needs to look defined. Not to mention you need a mask to hide your identity." He says sketching something into the book. He turns it around to show Izuku who is lying paralyzed in fear. "There. Like father. Like son." He says, on the page is a 1:1 sketch of his own suit, white button up shirt, black pinstripe tuxedo but the difference is the headpiece. The same mouth guard Izuku has now is the mouth rest for an eerily similar helmet his father wore at Kamino.
Suddenly Izuku snaps awake, drenched in sweat and in the arms of Ochako. He is in his room, sitting up in his bed just before hearing his alarm go off waking Ochako. She reaches over and snoozes the clock for an hour allowing Eri to get more sleep before stretching. She looks to Izuku before rubbing his shoulder and recoiling that he's all sweaty. "Why are you all sweaty. Go take a shower mister." She commands, Izuku obeys and gets up from the bed and stretches before walking to the shower. Ochako gets up as well before pulling the sheets and bedspread off the bed and throwing them in a hamper. She goes to his closet and pulls a new bed spread from one of the middle shelves. As she does a notebook drops from the middle shelf, "Hero Analysis Journal Number 1" It reads, Ochako doesn't recognize the hand writing on the cover but picks up the book nonetheless. After fixing their bed, she sits on her side before turning on her reading lamp and opening the old book.
"This is Izuku's first book. Right now he's on book 13 but it's all scorched. I probably should get him one for number 14." She thinks to herself looking at the cover page.
"To whoever it may concern, this book is property of Midoriya Tomura and Midoriya Izuku. If found please contact the number below."
"Tomura? As in Shigaraki?" She says under her breath before turning over the page.
The first page of the book is a drawing in crayon, a little boy drawn in green crayon, a taller boy drawn with grey blue and both boys are holding hands with a man in a suit drawn in a black crayon. All three of them have the same hair style and red shoes with their names written underneath. Izuku under the one in green, Tomura underneath the grayish blue and Dad under the one in black. She studies the picture seeing the three of them standing on a street outside three tall identical buildings. "Must be Izuku's apartment. Maybe I should ask if he can bring me there to meet his mom some time." She thinks as she turns the page.
This next page looks to have been drawn by an adult, it shows a picture of All Might in great detail even down to the creases and shadows of the lighting in the picture. All Might's prime and debut costume is on the page and it looks to have been sketched by a professional. Next to it, on the side margins on the page are notes written in crayon. Ochako smiles seeing it as Izuku's handwriting and that it hasn't changed since he was a little boy, lines drawn from the words pointing to a part of the sketch. The thing that catches her attention is written in black pen and underlined. It is a single sentence and it's line is pointed directly under All Might's left pectoral on his chest. "All Might's Weakness is a scar near his heart." The font was the same as the one on the cover of the book and it startles her slightly.
Page three had a drawing of two people in similar design, both of them looked like the All Might sketch in the level of skill that was put into it but were vastly different. The one on the back of the page All Might was on was someone who she didn't recognize. A wide smile and beauty mark under the right side of his mouth holding up a peace sign with his right hand in a three fingered glove. In white, red and black stood a man with a small scar over his lip. Gloves with three fingers on each hand, a jumpsuit similar to Izukus and a pair of red boots going up the calf similar to what Izuku wears. A similar mouth-guard rests on the top of his chest, similarly designed costume to Izuku's but with a different color scheme. Though he doesn't have arm guards like Izuku does, he still has elbow and knee pads on his arms. A caption under the feet of the man on the page read: "The Hero that will turn Evil to dust! Age!" It read and under the caption listed the mans name.
"The Hero that will turn Evil to dust! Age!"
"Toumura Midoriya"
"Quirk: Decay, touching anything with all five fingers on his hand will turn the object, no matter what it is made of, to dust in a matter of seconds."
"Ochako? What are you looking at?" Izuku asks, coming back into the room, a towel being dragged through his curly hair.
"Your hero analysis book number 1, who drew these?" She asks, showing Izuku the picture of All Might and of Age and Izuku himself.
"My father did, back before he left. That is Shigaraki, we were like brothers once and we used to play heroes and run around. We even got in a lot of trouble together when he accidentally decayed my father's bonsai tree he was tending." Izuku explains, Ochako sets the open book on the night stand, it's pages fluttering and settling on a random page in the center of the book.
"Well, maybe one day that can be true? Come on we still have a little snowball who is pretending to be asleep to wake up and get ready." Ochako says turning to look at Eri who is spying on them through a squinted eye trying to pretend to be asleep. As soon as she notices Ochako's focus she quickly moves her head and buries her face in her soft pillow.
"I see you're awake Eri, come on it's time to get ready we're going to class soon and you're gonna go to your own class with Nejire and Mirio." Ochako says walking over to the young girl's bed. Eri tilts her head up to see Ochako as she places a hand on Eri's shoulder causing her to float.
"Hi Mommy." She greets floating up in the air slowly spinning, Ochako greets her with a smile before releasing her quirk and picking Eri up.
"Let's get you ready for school and get some breakfast in you. How's that sound?" Ochako asks with the little girl nodding in agreement. "Alrighty, Izuku? I'm gonna bathe Eri, you can go downstairs ahead of us." Ochako says.
"Alright, I'll see what Kacchan is cooking this morning, I already heard the stove explode twice so it should be interesting." He replies before leaving the room.
Getting downstairs, Izuku quickly has to dodge a knife coming out of nowhere. The knife sinks to the handle into the wall before Izuku traces back the trajectory towards the kitchen. "Oh, Thought you were half n half. What's up?" Katsuki asks realizing it was Deku coming down the stairs and not Todoroki.
"The girls are getting ready and I heard you blow up the stove so I wanted to see what was for breakfast." He responds handing him back the knife.
"Trying something different today, this is apparently a food staple in the south of the US. Chicken and Waffles though I don't have a clue what it has to do with staples." he responds, he takes the knife back from Deku before washing it in the sink.
"I think it means that it's iconic, like All Might's signature smile or Todoroki's conspiracies." Izuku explains with Kacchan nodding in understanding.
"Makes sense, Wanna try some? I don't know how the batter turned out since I only used milk and not carbonated water like what we'd use for Tempura." Katsuki says, before he picks up a piece of chicken before handing it to Deku.
"Sure, thanks." Izuku responds by taking the chicken and taking a bite out of it, he pauses for a moment studying the flavors before belching up fire in response. "Sheesh that's spicy! What did you put in this?!"
"My usual concoction of peppers and spices why?" He responds arching an eyebrow.
"Kacchan this level of heat can make people breathe fire without a quirk! I think you should rework the fry batter and not use any of your peppers." Izuku responds.
"I'll just save this batch for me, you can make a new batter for the chicken." He responds motioning towards a mixing bowl and flour on the counter behind them.
"Wait a second. Why did you throw a knife at the wall?" Izuku asks turning to face Katsuki.
"Half n Half thinks he's better than me just because he has facial hair coming in. The knife is gonna shave it off. Speaking of which." Katsuki responds before whipping the knife at the same spot in the wall. Todoroki stops dead in his tracks as the knife grazes his lip and embeds itself in the wall again this time one centimetre to the right of the first hole.
"Bakugou what the fuck!" Todoroki says slightly raising his voice above his normal monotone.
"Your face looked like it had pubes. I was doing you a favor so get off my dick." Katsuki shouts back, Izuku smacks him with a cutting board breaking it over his head. "The fuck was that for?!" He asks, turning to Deku.
"Cursing in front of Eri." Izuku replies.
"I don't se- Oh, hey Eri." Katsuki replies seeing the young girl peek her head over the bar counter and look at them.
"She figured out how to create a chair out of a cloud and just floats around like that all day." Izuku says pointing to the fluffy white cloud Eri is sitting on with Aoi in her lap.
"Hey Uncle Kacchan." Eri replies petting the cat in her lap.
"That reminds me of kid Goku and the nimbus." Kirishima says looking at the little cloud Eri is seated on.
"Who's that?" Eri asks.
"Looks like you and I have a lot of TV to watch Eri." Kirishima says as he makes the mistake of taking Katsuki's chicken.
"Don't go stealing other people's food!" Katsuki bellows but it's too late, Kirisihima takes a bite out of the fried chicken before his face turns a color matching his hair and a river of sweat pours from his skin.
"AAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!" He screams as a spray of flame erupts from his mouth.
"I warned you." Katsuki says as Kirishima dunks his head into the freezer. "Moron."
After almost setting the dorms on fire, Kirishima manages to put out the mouth inferno he had. The rest of the class followed in a little while later before being served by the resident two power houses of class A. Izuku and Ochako bring Eri to the third year dorms where Mirio and Nejire are already waiting for the little snowball. They thank the upperclassmen for watching her before heading to the main campus. The walk to the classroom was a nice calming one which allowed them to mentally prepare themselves for the usual daily chaos that comes with being in the hero course at UA. Walking along the hallways the typical murmurs and secrets were told to others as Izuku walked past them. Some girls eyeing up the holder of both All for One and One for All with Ochako giving them the stink eye. Others were sizing him up seeing how tough he actually was. Due to Izuku having been bullied most of his life he didn't exactly walk with much confidence which helps out in this case. Some of the others don't think he's all that tough and go about their day and head to class. Izuku and Ochako are the last two members of class 1-A to arrive at the classroom. They quickly take their seats before the morning bell rings, Aizawa rises from the floor like a zombie out of a casket before dropping his trademark yellow sleeping bag off of himself. Izuku wondered to himself if Aizawa ever actually cleaned said sleeping bag.
"Morning." The class says to Aizawa before he presses a button on his podium, his desk opens a circular port on the flat of the desk. A large coffee mug is raised by an internal elevator, a spout rises next to the cup before turning and pouring a black liquid into the cup. The coffee is followed by a very large amount of sugar, chocolate syrup then a small dash of milk. A robotic hand reaches up from under the desk and stirs the coffee thoroughly.
"That's some goood shit." He says taking a long sip of the coffee and setting it back down and addressing the class. "Morning to you all too. This is your only class for today, the other teachers are coordinating the cultural festival coming up at the end of the week. Midoriya, your request to leave campus has been postponed till after the festival." Aizawa says, Izuku nods solemnly knowing that he isn't able to bring back the predecessors just yet.
"What are we doing today then, sensei?" Iida asks standing up from his chair and raising his hand high above his head.
"Iida, asking questions while raising your hand kind of defeats the purpose of raising your hand." He replies taking another sip from his coffee, Iida looks down dejectedly for a moment. "But I'm glad you asked because I was just gonna down coffee until the end of the class period to wait and see if you all would guess what we were doing. Before you leave here remember that I want your decision by tomorrow afternoon. Each class has their own event they are doing. You get to decide on what it is." He replies before clicking another button on the desk. "Here is your white board for ideas, Iida and Yaoyorozu are in charge." He replies wheeling over the whiteboard that seemingly appeared out of nowhere. He zips himself back up in his sleeping bag and falls over back to his spot on the floor.
"Well we're better off doing this in the common room of the dorms. All ideas are welcome and we will vote on them as well." Momo says pushing a button on the side of the whiteboard. It folds up to a smaller size with a handle on it allowing Iida to carry it.
Later that Evening:
Izuku sits relaxed on the recliner in the common room, Eri sitting on his lap playing on her Nintendo switch. Ochako is seat next to him laying on his other leg stroking a hand through his hair. Iida and Yaoyorozu are gathering everyone in the common room for ideas. They had decided that the morning wasn't the best time to do a class debate seeing as several of them, including Izuku and Bakugou were not morning people whatsoever. After filling up from a delicious spread made by Izuku and Satou, the class gathers around on the couches, beanbags and even under the Kotatsu table for the brainstorming session.
"Remember, all ideas are going to be voted on at the end once we have accounted for all of them." Iida says chopping his hands through the air.
"Oh! Oh! Oh! Sexy Maid cafe! With frilly french maid outfits and long white stockings!" Mineta shouts, Kaminari high fives the midget with the two of them fantasizing about seeing the girls in maid outfits.
"Well if the girls are going to dress up then the boys are too, how about a butler cafe as well." Mina suggests, Kaminari, Izuku and Mineta give her the stink eye over this.
"I... don't think I should wear a suit for... Obvious reasons." Izuku says in protest of the idea.
"Oh, sorry Midoriya I didn't hear you before I wrote it down." Momo apologizes. "Who else has any ideas?" She asks looking for anyone with a raised hand.
"What about a concert?" Kaminari asks, this causes Jirou to slightly blush knowing what is to come. "I've heard Jirou playing her guitar and instruments not to mention she's an amazing lyricist. Maybe we can have a concert?"
"I-I-I don't want to do that! I'm not good at singing." Jirou protests, Kaminari gets up from his spot and walks over to her.
"Don't say that, you're amazing and your voice is perfect for singing. My room is right down the hall from yours and I hear your singing when you practice on your own." Kaminari replies grabbing her hands together. This causes the punk rock girl's face to turn bright red.
"I-I. What are you saying?!" She shouts becoming more flustered at Kaminari, she threatens him with her earphone jacks for him to stop.
"I'm saying it's the perfect thing for you to do. You're always worried about how you look. Maybe this is something that will help you confidence wise? I'm a guitar player, Uraraka plays the trombone and I'm pretty sure Bakugou plays the drums. Why don't we do a concert?" He suggests, her face flushes even redder before she closes her eyes tightly looking away.
"Fine, but you owe me afterwards you hear me?" She says jamming her finger into his chest.
"Alright so that's, Maid Cafe, Butler cafe and Concert." Iida says writing down the last one. "All in favor of the Maid cafe?" Iida asks, Mineta and Sero raise their hands for this. "2 of 20." Iida recounts.
"Next for the Butlers." Momo says as a few hands come into the air. "So, Mina, Toru, Tsuyu and Uraraka. So 4 of 20." She says.
"Lastly the concert. All in favor?" Iida asks, unanimously, minus the ones who have already voted, everyone raises their hands. "14 of 20 that's majority win." Iida says.
"What bout mine?" Eri asks raising her hand.
"What do you have in mind Eri?" Momo asks putting her hands on her knees and crouching down to eye level with the little girl.
"Daddy give kirks to person." she replies, it takes Momo a minute to realize what she is saying.
"Midoriya to give out quirks? That's actually a good idea but a lot of people that are attending the cultural festival already have quirks. What do you think, Midoriya?" Momo asks looking up at Izuku.
"Sure, if anyone is quirkless or has a useless quirk I can give them a new one. I have over 40 of them." Izuku replies.
"So it's settled, a concert and a stand to give quirks to quirkless or unusable quirked people." Momo replies circling the idea on the board.
"Will be candy apple?" Eri asks looking up to Izuku.
"I'm not sure but I'll make you one if we can't find any. That sound okay to you?" he asks, Eri nods feverishly at this. "It's settled then. Well I'm going to go up stairs to my room and watch a movie with Eri and Ochako before going to bed." Izuku says before picking up both girls and heading up stairs.
