The wheel of adaptation

The question

"I'm sorry young man but you can't be a hero with a quirk like that but you can be a cop or medic it good dream to have but make sure it realistic dream to have too, "a weak man said to a young man and walk away checking his pockets to see if the slime villain got away which it didn't

What you just saw was Allmight telling a young man with a clock base quirk that he couldn't become a hero something he gets told 24/7 but it was different when you're ideal and the number one hero said it 'it's okay Izuku it just Allmight saying I can't be a hero' the young man named Izuku Midorya thought trying not to cry he hated these emotions the loneliness as he thought that the wheel above his head spins,

the numbness of being told worse than everything and everyone around you the clanking of the wheel can be heard

he hated everything about himself the weakness that couldn't save his mother from his father who thought his mother Inko cheated on him with somebody else because he had a different quirk from both of them but left the same day that the apartment set on fire

he sent some money to Izuku enough for him just to live and got him apartment under his father's name with a final clack of the wheel he felt nothing, not a single emotion not happiness, no regret for asking the question, not guilt for not being strong enough to save his mother, nothing

Izuku wasn't stupid obviously the doctor misdiagnosed him if wasn't for constant explosions from his childhood friend turned bully Katsuki Bakugo he wouldn't have figured his quirk out sure he tried to say his quirk was adapting to any situation but that would left him standing outside the classroom and beat up sure he adapt to there quirks or punches but didn't change the fact he can still feel pain but slowly he went numb to it and he couldn't vent it out to anyone at the fear of being laughed at again and again and again

He just wanted the pain to end so he let his quirk do its thing and numb him if meant he couldn't feel anything then so be it Izuku thought that if he felt nothing he wouldn't feel the pain of being alone again as emotions died one by one and the logical side took over

he started to like the feeling of being numb to the pain he felt as Izuku thought that the emotional side of Izuku died leaving the logical side to take over completely "What do I wanna be" a monotone voice spoke it was from Izuku not a single hint of life in his voice like it used to be

He thought about it for a second and decided to honor his emotional side his heart said to be a hero who saves people if it meant dying to do so but his logical side thought that he was most likely to get rejected from UA University for heroic

so he was stuck picking what to choose sure he could be a villain and be unstoppable but something deep within his heart made him sick to the stomach with the thought so vigilante it is

-Mini-timeskip-
We skipped to an apartment with a familiar green hair boy working on some dinner "Katsudon my only friend" Izuku said with the same monotone voice this here is his apartment that his father is paying for whether it was from guilt or shame it may be something else

but he doesn't care obviously because he hasn't visited Izuku in three years and didn't show up to Inko's funeral "Itadakimasu" Izuku said as he clapped his hands together and started eating "Man nothing like a good bowl of katsudon "Izuku said as starting to clean his dishes

"her quirk is bad for being a hero it can cause some major problems down the line, "Izuku said as he was going through the news on his phone news it was about the new heroine MT.lady sure she was good-looking but a terrible hero Izuku give her five months max if you want his honest opinion on her if was like midnight sure she is 18+ hero but at least she gets her job done and moves on like a real hero should

but MT.lady was quite literally shaking her ass for the media and he could care less about that he went to his room.

to start working on his suit it was just a gray hoodie with what looked like wings on the top of it with some black pants and old boots he threw on his suit grabbed some gloves and a white mask and jumped out the window

he wouldn't get caught going out the front door looking like he well robbed somebody and starting his first patrol and silently thanking that he took free running and parkour class
