"A flower quirk?" Inko Midoriya asked the quirk doctor. "I'm not sure I understand what you're getting at."
The doctor leaned back in his chair and folded his arms. "A flower quirk is a term for a plant-based quirk. See, your son's quirk allows him to grow any type of plant from any point of his body. The flower on his head—I think— is permanent, because as you said before, it died and grew back immediately." He stopped to ruffle Izuku's hair—which caused Izuku to blush and giggle— before continuing.
"Flowers are apparently the focus of his quirk. He should be able to control them. You know how some can manipulate things to fly? He should be able to sprout flower wings or manipulate them in a way like your telekinesis. If you find anything new that you can't figure out yourself, feel free to come back."
Inko nodded and smiled at her son, who was vibrating with excitement like the pure bean he is.
Not all men are created equal.
Izuku came to that realization in the third grade, when the kids turned on him and started to drag him outside to try to pull the flower from his head. The flower wouldn't budge, of course, so they eventually gave up to try again the next day. This left him with blood coated hair everyday he went home.
His quirk was strong, yes, but he would have been happier with his dad's fire breathing quirk. Then he could flaunt it— maybe 'kacchan' wouldn't have left him.
"Your quirk is too pathetic! Maybe you can make flower crowns for the pros!" Were his exact words.
"H-hey that's n-not true! I-I can f-fly and d-do all s-sorts of c-cOOL things!" Izuku yelled, before turning around and walking his 8 year old self home.
Now, as a hard-working fourteen year old who gets good grades in school and goes to the gym every Friday, he thinks he has a pretty good chance to get into U.A.
Time to test that theory.
