    Summary

    Merry growls. She's so close that her breath puffs in hot clouds against Cyan's face. "I said that you haven't won a race in forever. You're dragging your heels, and anyone can see it. The great Cyan is well past her prime, and all you're doing now is clogging up the track. Getting in the way of MY progress. If you keep this up the betting will get too slanted in my favor, and then I catch the flack by getting more accusations hurled at me. So you're gonna tell me: what the hell's gotten into you lately?"

    Words don't fall out of Cyan's mouth. They won't even line up in her brain right. There's a long, long pause before she can finally whisper out, dizzy with awe: "I can't stop looking at you."

    "Lord Theseus! Don't get up! You had a nasty fall earlier. Your father will have my head if he notices even a single scrape on you from getting out of your bed! The doctor even saved your life, you know! Shouldn't you be more grateful?"

    "Theseus, you have to stop getting dangerously hurt on your birthday. It's becoming a bad habit."

    "Wil, you're going to suffocate him."

    "I know it's a bit late, but happy birthday, son."

    Summary

    Izuku's quirk is simple, it tells him exactly what he needs to do.
    It tells him to grab an umbrella and that afternoon it rains unexpectedly. It tells him to bring cash and it turns out the card reader is out of order.
    His quirk tells him to rob a bank.
    Well, why not?
    - - -
    Does the name All for One mean anything to Izuku? Nope.
    Will he tear down the empire of a powerful villain who has been terrorizing Japan for over a century anyway? Sure.

    Summary

    UA has a rule—no quirkless students. It was added years ago, after much hemming and hawing about safety concerns and lessening blame in the inevitable circumstance of death. There's no real reason to remove it, not as the percentage of quirkless people plummets further and further.

    Of course, this rule doesn't actually matter to Izuku, because he's got an analysis quirk.

    As far as anyone knows.

    The Plan is simple: have a quirk, become a hero, and avoid anyone who could disprove those first two things.

    In hindsight, UA isn't a great choice. And that's before the villains.
