HELLO, I AM ALIVE. I haven't uploaded in what seems like forever, but it's only been a month. I still get follows and favorites and I appreciate it, even reviews! I saw a criticism of having All Might give Midoriya OFA. I get it, it makes Midoriya even stronger with an already strong quirk. It's similar to when I re watched and reread the tournament arc when All Might talks about if Todoroki had OFA, his quirk and super strength would make him an almost unbeatable hero. I took a different but similar approach and didn't even realize it. And hell, even the talking to previous holders, I wasn't up to that part of the manga yet and I feel like I'm only borrowing even more. BUT I'm getting off track by a lot.

What I wanted to say in this update is thank you to everyone who reads and follows, favorites, and leaves good comments and suggestions. I may not use all the suggestions but reading nice reviews makes me want to write even more. I haven't written in an entire month due to the fact that I was on winter break.

I started writing fanfics because I felt isolated at school, I barely talked to my roommate even though we were close friends a semester ago, other friends began to not talk as much, and I'm not very social so I had a hard time going to school funded events solo. I felt so alone I thought something was wrong with me and I thought some pretty bad things. I won't go into detail about it. I began writing as a way to sort of, get away from that. and the positive reviews helped me out. Even my partner Kfbanime, he's a cool guy, he may not be directly involved with the story except for a few things and events coming up, but we pitch different ideas and I'm glad I started writing.

I stopped writing a month ago because I was heading home for winter break, I wanted to catch up with friends at home, be with my girlfriend, be with my family, and work to try and pay for school. I recently got a Nintendo Switch and have been addicted to Smash and Let's Go Pikachu. I didn't have much time to myself and that's what kind of made me avoid writing again, I didn't want to remember when I was alone. Due to my experience at school, I won't be returning there, but I hope with this I can try and write even while being occupied in the comfort of my home and being around friends.

I will be getting out another chapter within the next week or a little more. I also plan on continuing my x-men crossover 'The X-Students.' And maybe some more stories from the ideas Kfbanime and I made. I've also thought about trying to redo this story, I started off without a plan and like halfway through it shot myself int he foot with Kacchan and Deku being all buddy buddy when before I made them out to be like, enemies, and the whole relationship between them to change, include Inasa, Ibarra, Mineta, and a few other characters. The story Torchbearer made me realize this, I should sorta do my own thing with it. But I'm going to roll with this story for now. Once I find the time to redo it, I will, or will try to.

I'm working on the week spars, and I'm doing day one and skimming through the rest of the days with winners and notable events to jump towards the Sports Festival. I'm excited as hell to write the sports festival. I'll let you guys know that the events will be the same, obstacle course, cavalry battle, and the tournament, but there are going to be changes.

Thank you for the previous support, you guys are awesome.
