Time Can Tell

All by myself literally

The boy without power hated how his friend hid away so he made sure they could always be their true self in each others company

___________________________________

Izuku lived alone in a dorm building, it was honestly very awkward for him. The building had the letters 1-A written on the side, a terrible sign for what is to come.

He likes the space, he can wander around with some freedom. He obviously knows he's being watched, he can tell. If he wanted he would put a piece of gum on every camera but that would take him all day. The rat was a crafty little fucker.

He decided he wanted to test this theory, he saw a lovely wooden beam somewhere but if he is wrong he would be hanging there for hours. Choke. Die. Resurrect. Repeat. Until he can get himself down or someone else does that. Still leaves a nasty looking and feeling bruise.

He decided he would watch TV, the microwave wasn't that hard to operate it was a miracle he remembered how. He decided he wanted a bowl of popcorn, he raided the very well stocked fridge for fizzy drinks and sweets. Why they were in the fridge was completely beyond him.

The burn on him has already been healed thankfully. He has a terrible habit of picking scabs, it's one of those things you wish you can live without. The amount of pointless scars he has because he didn't allow to heal is almost infinite. The only reason his back isn't as badly scarred is because he can't reach it.

He still feels bad for the Bakugo pup, its going to be very hard to make anyone like him if he is anything like all of his predecessors. Izuku has a very long connection with the Bakugo house hold, for starters Katsuki Bakugo if the first male child for generations. Somehow the women of the Bakugo family refused to change their surnames, and their husbands rather happily changed theirs. He has gotten letters from them every month, not from Katsuki obviously but from his mother Mitsuki.

He can't wait to turn up on their front door and have a drinking buddy for the first time. He remembers their last letter exchange.

Dear Mistsuki,

I am finally being released from prison and I'm going back to school. Its a place called UA, I would love to stop by. Its rather frightening how much the world have changed. I didn't have a choice to be honest, how's Katsuki anyway. I bet he's still an asshole.

Lots of love

The friend

Dear friend,

My brat is going to UA too, hopefully you can teach him not to be an asshole. The world hasn't changed much so you will be fine, maybe you can make some friends. Also I would love for you come over we can chat over a glass of wine.

Love from

Mitsuki

He almost forgot he is old enough to drink. He sat down on the annoyingly green sofa and turned the TV on. It surprised him by how many new movies were out. The marvel franchise has a couple thousand unwatched shows. Fast and furious has another 85 movies. And don't get him started on how they quirkified every Disney Princess. Sleeping beauty with a flower quirk and snow white with a talking to animals one. They could already do that shit before.

He settled to watch the fast and furious franchise, it didn't change so much and honestly he is pretty sure he will complain about the quality of literally everything.

~~~~~~~~~>

The following morning Midoriya looked and felt like shit. He was radiating a don't talk to me vibe and all his classmates were more than happy to listen to it. Denki didn't care much for the villain, he didn't care much for anything but when he saw Bakugo walk in he couldn't help but feel a little bit of resentment

The whole class was feeling it minus the villain obviously, those who were looking closely could see his eyes light up.

"What is he doing here?" Uruaka was the one who said this, she is normally a kind and bubbly girl but her voice couldn't help coming out cold.

"Class is about to start take your seats" Aizawa wasn't happy about Bakugo still being here but there was nothing he could do about it.

Izuku stopped listening a good few minutes ago, he's pretty sure they are talking about something he isn't bothered to listen to. The window is quite pretty, he wonders how easy it is to smash.

At one point the class started to cheer and raise their hands. Who knew only a few seconds of daydreaming could make you lose so much vital information.

Class president is a very important role. UA is one of the few schools who value academic excellence over quirks, everyone here has earned their place. Aizawa could quite accurately guess who would become the class president.

Someone who can lead, someone who can take responsibility. Based on what he seen so far only a few students are capable of the leadership part and even less for the responsibility. Kirishima, Yaoyorzu, Iida and possibly Tsu are the only ones capable of all the qualities required. However only one has enough popularity to achieve it. 

Kirishima won the class president vote, his bravery shown in the Bakugo explosion has proven him trustworthy and reliable. Kirishima himself was not so sure, yes his quirk was useful, yes he did try and protect his classmates, yes he is friendly with everyone, and lets not forget the fact he is optimistic and outgoing. However he isn't perfect, there are things he can't do what the others can.

At lunch he confided with his friends Mina, Denki and not surprisingly Bakugo.

"That is absolute crap, Kiri!" Mina was the first one to speak, she knew her friend was literally built for the role

"But don't you think someone else would be better." his eyes were downcast, he's one of those people who always doubt themselves. Denki opened his mouth to reply but Bakugo beat him to it.

"That is fucking bullshit shitty hair" Kirishima was the first person to forgive him and welcome him into their group, "No one else deserves it more than you fucking do, Why the fuck are you sitting here?" 

"I'm the main character." He ignored their strange looks and gestured for them to continue.

Izuku sat down next to Bakugo (ToTaLLY not because of the fact he communicates with his mother on a daily basis).  A blaring alarm rang throughout the building.

"I DIDN'T DO SHIT!" Izuku stood up quickly and raised his arms, an embarrassing force of habit , a speckle of pink adorned itself on his face, as a ton of students rushed towards the door. 

They joined the group of students walking through the door, the extremely small door. How the hallway became crowded was completely beyond Izuku. It was very unbearable, he is glad he does not have a form of social anxiety or that his brain does not register this as claustrophobia (what, he was bound to get it eventually, cramped padded rooms is enough to make anyone crazy).

At one point he is pushed against the window, he sees a bunch of people? No reporters, he thinks, he isn't completely used to strange appearances yet. Thankfully he was not the only one to work that out. Iida and Uruaka were already acting out their plan. Watching Iida fly like a helicopter was among the highlights of his life.

He shouted some things that made everyone calm down, something about responsibility, best school and random stuff. He honestly doesn't want to try and remember, it reminds him of all those pointlessly long assemblies that has only one point that is important enough to remember.

"This is going to be easy."

Hello, I tried hard. By the way I know I have been spelling Urauka wrong. I just can't be bothered to find the correct spelling. Still working on the Bakugo redemption, is he unredeemable?
