Shinso Hitoshi was one of Izuku's classmates in the Gen. Ed. course at U.A. One, who he realised, was very fun to annoy.

"You see, to be able to eat you need to open your mouth first."

Shinso glared at his newfound friend who had taken a penchant to irritate him at every opportunity possible. Knocking away the spoon which Izuku kept dangling in front of him, he took his own spoon and started to eat. "I can eat by myself." He continued glaring.

"Ooh, so you can even self reflect!" Izuku flashed his white teeth and Shinso nearly cracked his spoon in half. "then I should also let you know, glaring is't make to make me run away."

"Why the heck are you even sitting with me right now?" Shinso demanded, "The others give me a wide berth, why don't you?" His 'villainous' quirk was enough to keep others away from him. It was just the first week of school and everybody else avoided him as soon as they realised what his quirk was. Except this green haired boy, who instead decided to become the bane of his existence.

Izuku smiled. The boy had a pure heart, and it wasn't just his quirk that made others label him as a villain. It was his demeanor and outlook more than his quirk. Unkempt hair, dark circles and that 'I don't give a shit' expression gave him a look that villains would kill for. He knew that from firsthand experience. "Because I know more than anyone else whats its like to be isolated on the basis of your quirk."

Neither of them spoke a word for the entire lunch break after that.


The classes could be worse, Izuku supposed. They were examining the quirks of the students of the hero courses and considering various fields for their application. As possible future journalists or administrators in hero agencies, it was something they needed to be adept at.

"Who would it be best to use in covert operations?"

"Do you think Aoyama and Jiro's quirks could be used at concerts?

"What kind of advice would you give Todoroki to limit surrounding damage?"

And most important of all, it gave Midoriya free information on the students. He had planned to go around and observe their quirks to make notes but U.A. just handed it to him on a silver platter. Now all he needed was to take their personalities into account; their habits, their weaknesses and other psychological traits. He continued scribbling but then, on an impulse, he asked,

"Can't Kaminari's quirk provide the slums with an endless supply of electricity?"

All chattering in the classrooms ceased. Everyone turned to look at Izuku simultaneously. 'Idiot,' He chastised himself, 'I just had to attract attention to myself.'

Their teacher looked dumbfounded, "Pardon? What do you mean, slums?" He looked genuinely confused at the prospect.

"I mean the slums that exist in the outskirts of the city and are mainly inhabited by the quirkless." Not wanting to attract further attention, he took his books and excused himself. He saw Shinso give him a queer look as he passed by. Izuku replied with a look of his own which made Shinso shrink back. Midoriya's eyes carried anger and frustration which contrasted against his innocent countenance and expressed just how infuriated he was. How could the heroes hope to save society when they didn't even know the ordeals the people faced?

He just had to jinx it by thinking the class could be worse, didn't he?


Using the media to infiltrate the school was a good plan, Izuku admitted. He'd just have to hack into the school cameras to remove any trace they may leave behind. Furthermore, their plan was just to give the authorities a warning, a sign that the league existed and had the potential to be a threat to them.

An unexpectedly ingenious plan coming from Tomura. Except it wasn't, the one to conceive the plan was undoubtedly the one behind Tomura. It hadn't taken Midoriya long to find out about 'Sensei,' Tomura wasn't really good at keeping secrets and Kurogiri relented...with a little bit of blackmail. Though it meant losing his bar rights. Not that he had any in the first place, technically, but Kurogiri was a good sport and didn't hold a grudge. At least as far as Izuku knew, and he knew a lot.

It had been months since Izuku joined the league. He rarely made plans for them, but when he did, they worked. The members had quickly warmed up to him after they saw him in action. He still remembered the fight fondly, the moment when he shot his opponent with a gun with an innocent smile on his face. Not that he killed the villain, just incapacitated him. There was a line Midoriya had sworn never to cross and that included the act of murder. Manipulating others to do the deed? Yes, but committing the act himself? Never.

He glanced at the draft of the plan. The media would certainly be useful in this operation. He made a mental note to get acquainted with Present Mic and create as many connections to the media as possible. The media had a lot more power than he wanted to admit, and with the knowledge to back it up as well. Breaking free from his thoughts, Izuku reviewed the plan and pondered on the opportunities that emerged from it. The confusion created could be enough to let him access otherwise forbidden documents which could be very very beneficial for them. For this particular mission, he had to cause as much as chaos as he could. If the aspiring heroes couldn't control themselves in times of panic, then who would?

Izuku grinned evilly, accepting the plan. "I always wanted to write 'The League of Villains wuz here' on the walls of U.A."
