  Summary

  Today is a painful day. The apartment is quiet, save for the soft words being sung over a single handheld speaker in the middle of the room. Cleaning the apartment isn’t very hard when you can use the work to draw your own mind away from unwanted thoughts.

  Summary

  Izuku Midoriya is ten when the birds start talking to him. No, that isn’t right.

  Izuku Midoriya is ten when he first -listens- to what the birds have to say to him. When he first -understands- the words his feathered friends have been telling him all along. What does he do with this realization?

  He helps people and has a bit a fun while doing it of course!

  Summary

  "When drifting on the sea of dreams what is it worth to see a sunrise?" - Unknown

  At this point Iruma’s faith in humanity is at its all time low. Why is that you may ask?
  Well, for one his parents have put him in quite a cruel and sticky situation at the moment. And for two he is not on the fishing boat anymore.

  That is for sure.

  Summary

  "Problem Child don't make us wait any longer"
  Izuku Midoriya stands in the doorway silently sweating and muttering to himself. It's presentation day. Public speaking happens to be one of the most important skills a hero can have so it's no surprise that UA has included it into their curriculum. That doesn't make the nerves go away though, no matter what Iida says.

  With one deep breath and a smile to steel himself, Midoriya steps into the classroom.

  Summary

  Izuku Midoriya is a smart kid. He knows what other people think about people like himself. He chooses not to think about it too much. Instead he goes about life wandering aimlessly for someone to help when he can't help himself.
