“Unbelievable,” the woman muttered, raising one of her hands to glare at the slush stuck to her gloves. She shook it off in disgust, directing the glare back up to Vi. “Is it just a habit of yours to barrel through people with no regard?”

Summary
There’s a lot of things Katsuki knows. He knows he can be self-absorbed, rude, and childish. He knows he hurts the people he cares about. He knows he needs his friends in his life, as much as he hurts them.
There’s also a lot of things Katsuki doesn’t know. He doesn’t know how to forgive himself, when to walk away, or how to open up to others. How to feel his emotions as they come. How to accept love.
And there’s a whole hell of a lot more he needs to find out. How do you survive each day? When do you stop feeling so alone? What do you do when you realize the person you’ve been your whole life isn’t who you’ll always be?
What happens when your best friend gets his quirk back? How do you act when you realize that maybe you don’t want to be just friends? When does change stop being so scary?
What comes next?
(alt: After graduation, when Izuku's quirklessness isn't as permanent as it seems, Katsuki helps him become a hero again. So that he and his best friend can compete for the rest of their lives. His entire reason for living is to be a hero, and being with Izuku makes him better. The best. He tells himself that's the only reason—but is it really?)
