    Summary

    About a week after that, All Might asked Izuku if he was aiming for the hero course at UA. The question was so sudden that Izuku nearly dropped a microwave on his toes.

    The truth was, if All Might had asked him that a week ago, there would have only been one possible answer to that question. All Might had gone to UA, UA was the best, so Izuku was going to go there too, if he could. But things were a little different, now that he was going to receive All Might’s Quirk.

    “No,” he said, decisively.

    All Might looked caught off guard, which was a very rare expression on him. “No?” he echoed, like he couldn’t believe it.

    A laugh bubbled out of Izuku’s throat. He honestly couldn’t believe it either. “No,” he repeated.

    ___

    Or, All Might tells Izuku about All for One before he gives him One for All, and everything changes.

    Summary

    "Fuck, not now!" Bakugou hissed angrily, ducking into an alleyway as his stomach cramped up viciously. He was early, his Heat was early. Tears pinpricked his vision, half in pain and half in frustration. He needed to get home but his phone was dead and the walk home would grow more and more impossible the longer he tried. He stumbled to his feet, nausea making his cramping stomach roll uncomfortably. He shrunk back against the brick wall of the building behind him for a moment.

    That was when he smelt them.

    Summary

    In which Izuku simultaneously grows up and doesn't, for better or for worse.

    Everything changes. Nothing changes. It’s like they’re all stuck in one big time machine, except the time machine is less like a time machine and more like a washing machine, in the sense that it shakes them around and then spits them back out and generally makes a mess everywhere.

    He tells the metaphor to Ochako, when it’s all done and over with. She tells him that he needs a better washing machine.

    The conversations hadn't quite gone as planned, but that didn't mean that Izuku was going to make it easy for him.

    Summary

    The man was over a century old. There had to be more to it. In hindsight, it hadn’t been one of Izuku’s better ideas.
