Staring at a trembling boy before him, All Might knows what he would've wanted someone to tell him if he'd asked the Number One Hero if he could've been a Quirkless hero. And if that notebook he signed was anything to go by, a little help from Nedzu and the boy might even surpass him.
When Midoriya Izuku asks All Might if he can be a hero without a Quirk, the Symbol of Peace says 'Yes.'
This fic has a TV Tropes page!
All his life, nobody truly believed in Midoriya Izuku's dream of being a Hero. Not his mother, his childhood friend, his classmates or teachers...not even the Number One Hero believes in him. What is a Quirkless boy to do?
Show the world it's wrong, that's what. Finally, after years of no one believing him, there was one man who did. After All Might left Izuku on a roof with the answer of 'no', one man who was not a Hero finally told the boy, "I believe you can become a Hero." Izuku wants to prove the man right.
Short version: One person, who is NOT a Hero, finally tells him yes, and Izuku decides to become a Hero through the Support Course, making friends along the way.
(This is part 1 of a series, continued in part 4, updates were every other Tuesday but are now monthly because life is a thing :P)
In a world of quirks, Izuku Midoriya heeds Katsuki Bakugo's advice and takes a swan dive.
In a world of Jujutsu and curses, Toji Fushiguro takes his own life to save his son.
Somehow, Izuku Midoriya is blessed and survives. As a consequence, His soul merges with a certain man restricted by the heavens.
Or
Izuku gains a complete Heavenly Restriction, along with the memories and experiences of a man who is very different yet somehow similar to him.
He had his reservations at first.
But the more he watched the boy, the more he realised how much the boy was just like Yoichi.
And just like how Yoichi was the one who started it all, he felt that the boy has what it takes to end it conclusively, once and for all.
But not with how the blond oaf is doing things.
He will need to take over.
Just like how his quirk shifted the speed of objects however fast or slow he liked, Kudou is going to shift the gears of fate, so that the battle between good and evil is finally brought to an end.
Though, he never could’ve foreseen developing paternal feelings for the boy in the process.
