Izuku Midoriya stood on the rooftop of his school, vacated by students who eagerly left as soon as the bell rang.
Go take a swan dive off the roof, and pray that you'll get a quirk in your next life!
Midoriya looked down. His school building was pretty tall...
He wasn't doing it for a quirk in his next life, no.
He was doing it because he was sick and tired of the ridicule.
A person cannot be a hero without a quirk.
Said his idol, All Might.
Izuku Midoriya teetered on the edge of the rooftop.
And jumped.
