  Summary

  Imagine if Izuku's first meeting on the rooftop wasn't with All Might, but with Eraserhead... Now, imagine that meeting ended in a new family, a second chance at living, and completely derailed everything Izuku knew about his life. Now the first "Quirkless" hero student at UA, Izuku must find a way to prove himself to the world, keep his heroic life separate from his personal, and battle with the common issues of being "different" in a world that disproves.

  SLOW BURN AF (just a warning)

   

  A rewrite of the entire story, in the style of me (aka an undercover bestselling author trying to find her love for writing again by writing unedited, fun, and casual fanfiction).
