Machiko was lying down in an alley. It was midnight, and the moon was shining bright.

It was finally a full moon.

Machiko loved full moons. They say animals and other mammals and sea animals go kinda crazy or haywire when it's a full moon.

But Machiko knew that was a lie.

If anything, humans would go crazy, if they just weren't sleeping all the time.

Her parents abused her underneath a full moon.

Her family was robbed under a full moon, and they blamed it on her.

Her quirk awakened under a full moon, after eight years of hard training.

The U.A. Academy gave her permission to attend the school after the practical exam, under a full moon.

Everyone bullied her under a full moon.

But she also succeeded in the toughest things under a full moon.

She ran away from home under a full moon.

And she was kicked out of the school the next day, after a full moon.

She made her best decisions under a full moon.

And Machiko regrets nothing.
