Author's Note: I got a comment wondering if Marvin was some sort of vampire, and that'll be answered in this chapter by Marvin himself.
Enjoy the chapter!
.
"Where's Izuku Midoriya?" Nezu asked coldly.
Izuku didn't hear him, his eyes wide as he began to hyperventilate.
The chains felt painfully tight, burning into his skin like fire.
He began to sweat, his panic rising to match Marvin's rage. His hands trembled as he tried to restrain Marvin, control slipping over his body as memories flashed into his mind.
'Those bastards…' Marvin snarled, trying to take over.
Their body burned like Hellfire, One for All seemingly struggling against Erasure like a caged animal.
'Marvin… Please,' Izuku gasped, feeling an overwhelming darkness cover his vision.
He stared at the clasps around his arms, trembling as his control over his body slipped away.
The teachers watched as Izuku's body slumped slightly, becoming deathly still.
'Izuku?' Marvin asked softly. 'Izuku? What the hell? Where are you?!'
'IZUKU!' Marvin shouted, finding Izuku's mind empty.
Rage bubbled inside him– Izuku was gone– their head empty in a cold silence that seemed to stab Marvin through the chest.
"Young Midoriya?" All Might asked in concern. "Young Midoriya, are you alright?"
The teachers leaned away as Marvin's Factor flooded the room subconsciously, only Marvin's self-control keeping it from killing everyone there.
"I'm going to say this just once, out of my quickly waning respect for All Might," Marvin stated coldly, lifting his head slightly. "Release us in the next five seconds, and this'll all be taken as a big misunderstanding."
Nezu composed himself as best he could. "Mister Midoriya, I'm afraid that's not–"
The chair creaked, its binds bending and deforming as Marvin slowly stood, eyes dark and bloodthirsty.
The teachers felt their eyes collectively widen as Marvin broke free from the restraints with seemingly zero effort, rolling his shoulders with a sigh.
"Where is he?" Marvin hissed, voice low. "Where is my brother?"
Mic stood sharply, mouth slightly open as he readied his Quirk.
Midnight did the same, grabbing her sleeve tightly, ready to tear at a moment's notice.
Deep inside Izuku's soul, where One for All was stored, Izuku awoke with a gasp.
'Marvin?' He asked, looking around.
He was standing on what seemed like purple stone, extending for miles into a black fog Izuku couldn't see through.
"Marvin?" Izuku called, feeling nervous. "Marvin, this isn't funny!"
Where was he? He'd never seen this, in either his or Marvin's nightmares or memories. Where was he?
"Congratulations!" A voice boomed behind him. "Your control is quite impressive."
Izuku turned sharply, dropping into a fighting stance.
A few feet away from him stood a somewhat tall, bulky bald man wearing an open coat. Some sort of ammo belt crossed over his chest, and goggles sat prominently on his forehead.
"Who are you?!" Izuku demanded. "Where am I?!"
"Fiesty one, aren't ya?" The man grinned.
Izuku scowled, trying to call on One for All, but blinked as he realized he was unable to.
The man snorted. "You can't use One for All here. None of us can."
"Let me go!" Izuku yelled, his panic growing.
He tried to mentally reach for Marvin's Quirk, whatever it was. It was his only shot– he needed something.
Back in the physical world, Marvin was snarling, his Factor pinning everyone in the room.
"Where…" Marvin asked, his eyes wide and crazed. "WHERE IS HE?! WHAT DID YOU DO TO HIM?!"
"Mister Midoriya," Nezu began somewhat nervously. "I'm not sure what you–"
'BOOM!'
"WHAT DID YOU DO?!" Marvin roared, pinning Aizawa against the wall before anyone could move.
"YOUNG MIDORIYA!" All Might yelled, trying to throw off the Factor.
Aizawa felt like he was suffocating, the world going dark.
"WHE–" Marvin stopped, eyes widening.
He felt a tug against his Quirk, his strength– coming from the tunnel that led to One for All.
'IZUKU!' Marvin yelled internally, stepping towards the tunnel before stopping.
He couldn't go; who knew what these bastards would do with Izuku's body with nobody to protect it?
Marvin felt another tug, sharper this time, and gritted his teeth.
He returned to the physical world and slammed Aizawa against the wall hard.
Marvin jumped back, concentrating his Factor in his hand.
"NULL VOID!" He roared, clapping.
His Factor washed over everyone in the room, hitting them hard enough to knock their wind out.
The assembled Pros felt their Quirks get forcefully shut down as another wave of fear rushed over them, even Aizawa's Erasure got canceled.
Marvin pushed against the tunnel that led to One for All, trying to desperately push his strength down it.
'Izuku… please, if you can hear me… take my strength,' He almost pleaded, biting his tongue. 'Take it and break out of whatever's holding you.'
Inside One for All's mindscape, Izuku jerked as power surged through him.
Marvin's message burned through his ears, and Izuku gritted his teeth as overwhelming power rushed into his body.
The bald man's eyes widened and he stepped back right before Izuku launched forward.
Izuku kneed the man in the jaw, sending him flying back.
He kicked the air, rushing forward again with unbridled power.
'No wonder Marvin's so confident,' Izuku grunted as he punched the man in the stomach.
The man was launched away by his hit, flipping through the air like a ragdoll.
"AY, QUIT IT!" The man yelled desperately.
Black tentacles soared from his fingertips, attaching to the ground and pulling the man down.
Izuku stopped, staring at the tentacles in confusion.
'He can use his Quirk here too?' He exclaimed as he jumped back. 'I need to take him out quickly.'
"I THOUGHT YOU WERE QUIRKLESS!" The man yelled as he barely avoided a punch.
The tentacles rushed out again, trying to surround Izuku.
Izuku lept high, dodging the tentacles with ease.
"HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT?" Izuku yelled as he kicked the air.
The man jumped back as Izuku landed, barely avoiding a knee drop.
"I'M THE THIRD USER OF ONE FOR ALL," The man yelled. "I'M NOT YOUR ENEMY!"
Izuku stopped, staring at the man, who was panting horribly.
"God… you're good, kid…" The man gasped, hands on his knees.
Izuku suddenly felt an intense guilt overtake him as he stared at the man. It seemed like Marvin's strength also came with his fight-first mentality.
"Who… Who are you?" He asked slowly. "Are you a hero?"
The man coughed and nodded. "Ye–Yeah… Name's Lairot, but you can call me Three if you like."
In the physical world, Marvin was struggling against All Might.
"YOUNG MIDORIYA, PLEASE CEASE THIS!" All Might grunted as he held back Marvin's attack.
The other Heroes were unconscious thanks to Marvin's Factor, only All Might had enough willpower to throw off its effects.
"YOUR QUIRK TOOK MY BROTHER!" Marvin roared, hitting All Might in the side.
All Might hissed in pain– even without enhanced strength, Marvin was still more than skilled enough to hurt people he had no business hurting.
"B–Brother?!" All Might yelled as he threw a Smash. "What brother?!"
"MIDORIYA!" Marvin answered, weaving under the attack.
All Might staggered as Marvin's Factor hit him again, twice as strong as before.
"Who.. Who are you?!" All Might demanded as he blocked a punch.
"Midoriya's brother!" Marvin replied, hitting All Might in the neck.
He jumped back from a Smash, gritting his teeth.
'I can't hurt him, not with human strength alone,' Marvin muttered. 'I need a boost.'
He weaved under another Smash and a lightbulb went off in his head.
"One… For All," Marvin hissed, reaching for the power. "Detroit… SMASH!"
He landed a Smash directly onto All Might's weak spot, causing the hero to gasp in pain.
"NULL VOID!" Marvin yelled, slamming his palm against All Might's chest.
All Might staggered as the One for All-enhanced Factor hit him, his control over the embers of One for All slipping.
He gritted his teeth, his body only half-changed into his muscular form as he blocked a Smash.
"So we're inside One for Al–" Izuku stopped as power began swirling around them.
"Wha–" Lairot gaped. "How?! Is there somebody else controlling your body?!"
"It's uhh– It's a friend," Izuku replied, looking around.
One for All swirled with power, and the tentacles the man used began going haywire, nearly hitting Izuku had it not been for Marvin's Quirk.
Izuku felt a swirl of power overtake him, lifting him into the air.
Lariat's eyes widened. "Quick, Ninth! To use my Quirk you have to steady your heart! You can't dou…"
Izuku couldn't hear the rest as he was pulled up and nearly crashed into the control panel of his mind.
'You're back!' Marvin exclaimed.
Physically, he leaped back, his strength coming to the forefront violently.
He gritted his teeth, channeling One for All, his strength, and Null Void into his fist.
"SMASH!" He roared, hitting All Might in the chest.
All Might grunted in pain, flying back, and his muscular form disappeared as he was hit.
'Shit!' Marvin hissed as the burning pain returned.
He tried to deactivate One for All, struggling against whatever was causing the burning.
'Marvin, I've got this!' Izuku exclaimed, taking control.
He hissed in pain, falling to his knees as power overwhelmed him.
Blackwhip rushed out, dozens of tendrils ripping out of Izuku's body.
'God… Damnit,' Izuku grunted, fighting the Quirk.
"Don't… Doubt," He hissed, trying to stand.
Blackwhip flung itself around the room, violently breaking chairs and desks.
Marvin stepped forward, trying to give Izuku strength.
Izuku screamed as power flooded his veins, One for All activating again with a vengeance.
He grabbed the tendrils, forcing them under his control.
Izuku pulled against Blackwhip, using Marvin's strength to overpower it.
"Listen… to ME!" He roared, forcing the Quirk down.
Blackwhip rushed back into his body, disappearing under his skin in under a second.
Izuku gasped as Blackwhip deactivated, staggering forward, knees weak.
Marvin took over completely, standing Izuku straight and throwing off the exhaustion.
'What the actual hell was that?' He asked, both concerned and surprised. 'You never told me you could do that.'
'I was never told I could do that,' Izuku groaned, rubbing his head. 'Apparently, One for All has the memories of its past users, along with their Quirks. That was the Third's.'
'You have TWO Quirks now?' Marvin asked.
Izuku nodded. 'It's called Blackwhip. Apparently, it's used for capture.'
'Seems chaotic,' Marvin replied as All Might stood.
"Young Midoriya?" He asked softly, holding his side in his skinny form.
"All Might?" Izuku asked back, taking over.
He looked around, his face morphing into horror as he saw the destroyed office.
"What… What happened?" He whispered, turning to All Might.
All Might stared at him. "Your… Your friend, Young Midoriya. The one with the fear-producing Quirk, he didn't like it when he was captured."
'What did you do?!' Izuku gaped.
Marvin sighed. 'You disappeared and I lost it. I didn't know you were inside One for All, and they were getting ready to attack me, so I took out Aizawa and the rest, fought All Might, beat him as you saw, and now we're here.'
"You attacked us?" Izuku asked All Might in horror.
All Might sighed, sitting heavily in one of the only non-destroyed chairs left in the room.
"It was a foolish endeavor, I'll admit," He stated, staring at the ground. "We wanted to figure out why you were having such drastic personality switches; we weren't going to do this, but… well, someone had to leak the USJ's time and location to those villains, and there was a lot of doubt…"
Izuku stared at him in horror. "You… Why didn't you stop them?"
All Might looked ashamed. "I tried, but they outvoted me… I was meant to deter your friend from attacking us if something happened. I fear we underestimated how far your brother would go for you."
"Brother?" Izuku asked softly.
Marvin didn't look at him, instead staring intently at All Might.
"That's what he called you," All Might replied heavily. "I'm so sorry, Young Midoriya. I should've argued against them more, refused when they said anything… but my fear got the better of me… I was worried… I thought someone was controlling you, Young Midoriya."
"So– all of this?" Marvin asked, taking over. "It was all an attempt to protect Izuku?"
"For me, yes, it was," All Might sighed. "For the others… I'm not sure. Maybe it was; I can't say."
Marvin rubbed his eyes, leaning against the wall.
"Why not just ask?" He said, looking up. "Why resort to containment? What had I done to deserve that?"
All Might looked up at him, his sunken eyes looking tired.
"I'm afraid I can't answer that Young… whoever you are," All Might said softly. "I deeply apologize. Can you forgive me for this?"
Marvin sighed, dropping his head and closing his eyes.
"I don't like authority figures, All Might," Marvin softly stated, slowly. "My old world… well, I don't have a good track record with them. I trusted you, All Might."
All Might bowed his head, feeling his words like stab wounds.
"I don't know how I feel about you now, knowing you were complacent in this," Marvin told him. "I don't… I don't hate you, no… I can't say that. But I don't like you All Might, not in the way Midoriya does."
He sighed again. "You've done too much for Izuku for me to dislike you or lose all my trust in you… but… well, the only reason I'm talking to you is because of Izuku."
All Might didn't complain or try to argue; he knew he'd done something wrong and that he couldn't force forgiveness. But he could work for it.
"And… And how could I make you forgive me?" He asked, looking at Marvin. "What would fix it?"
It took a quick conversation with Izuku before Marvin sighed, rubbing his eyes.
"All Might, I'm another person stuck inside Izuku's head," He said. "Not another personality or something, a completely different person. Is there any way for me to gain a physical body?"
All Might sat straight, his mind turning quickly.
"I have a friend…" All Might began. "His name is David Shield. If anyone can help you, it's him."
Izuku's eyes widened and he perked up inside his mind.
"David Shield?!" He exclaimed, taking over. "He's one of the world's most intelligent and renowned Quirk scientists! You know him All Might?"
All Might smiled at him. "I do, Young Midoriya. He was the one who helped me when I first became a Hero in America."
"So this… Shield guy, he can help me?" Marvin asked, raising an eyebrow.
"He can," All Might nodded. "Few people know as much about Quirks as he does– he could find something to separate you from Young Midoriya."
Marvin hummed in thought before nodding. "Sure, I can accept that."
His eyes glassed for a moment before he looked at the unconscious bodies of the teachers.
"Oh, yeah, right," Marvin said before he waved his hand.
His Factor pulled back from the teachers, and they simultaneously awoke with a gasp.
Marvin waited for them to sit up, staring at them in amusement.
Aizawa recovered first, his willpower shaking off the effects quicker than most.
He jumped up, Quirk active and his Capture weapon in his hands.
"Midoriya!" He barked. "What was that?!"
"Remember how it went the last time you tried that?" Marvin asked coldly, staring Aizawa down.
"Shota, it's alright, he's on our side," All Might told him.
Nezu sat up with a groan. "I find that… hard to believe."
"You do realize I'm still fully capable of shutting your Quirks off, right?" Marvin asked the room. "You were all also unconscious. If I wanted to hurt you, I had more than enough chance to do so."
"You did hurt us," Midnight groaned, holding her head.
Marvin rolled his eyes. "No, I knocked you out with my Quirk. Completely different."
"Who even are you?" Thirteen asked as she stood. "You're not Midoriya."
"That's Midoriya's brother," All Might told her.
Every hero in the room turned to him in confusion. Aizawa actually turned his Quirk off out of bewilderment.
"Midoriya's… What?" Mic asked, thoroughly confused.
"Young…" All Might hesitated, realizing he didn't know Marvin's name.
"Marvin Mikrai," The teen supplied.
All Might nodded in appreciation. "Young Mikrai is, or calls himself, Young Midoriya's brother, and from what I can only assume to be a Quirk accident, has landed in Young Midoriya's body while still having his original Quirk."
"I actually don't know how I got here," Marvin told them. "Last I knew, I was in America, or my world's version of it, and then I woke up in Midoriya's head without my memories. I've been remembering things of my past as time goes on."
Nezu's brows furrowed. "Your world? Are you not from this world?"
"Not from what I can tell," Marvin answered honestly. "Unless your world has a corrupt world government with a special ops force made specifically to catch people with powers and turn them into genetic experiments."
The Heroes froze, gaping at him in a mix of horror and confusion.
"No… we don't," Nezu said slowly. "Quite frankly, Mister Mikrai, that sounds quite horrifying."
Marvin shrugged. "Eh, dealt with it all my life, or what I can remember of it anyway."
"Wait, how are you Midoriya's brother if you're from another world?" Midnight asked.
"Figure of speech," Marvin replied nonchalantly.
Thirteen shook her head. "So you're saying other universes exist? And that those from other worlds can cross over to ours? Should we be worried?"
"Nah," Marvin replied, waving her off. "The Hunters are only strong cause of their tech, they suck at fighting. Killed like 70 thousand in a few weeks when they bombarded me after my sister's death."
The teachers gaped at him in varying degrees of astonishment, disbelief, fear, and disgust.
"You've… You've killed?" Nezu asked softly.
Marvin tsked. "Plenty. I've been a soldier since childhood, can't remember a time I wasn't spent fighting or surviving. In my old world, it was kill or be killed, and I was very good at not getting killed."
"You seem rather unconcerned about your answer," Aizawa stated.
Marvin shrugged. "Don't gain anything from lying, and it's not like you'd do anything anyway."
"What's that supposed to mean?" Midnight demanded.
"That you're all too weak to do anything," Marvin replied. "None of you are threats to me in any way besides All Might, and he's All Might. The rest of you are pitifully weak."
The teachers held various states of offense, which seemed to faze Marvin exactly zero.
Nezu cleared his throat. "Mister Mikrai, if I may ask a question?"
"Shoot."
"Were you planning on killing Katsuki Bakugo during the Battle Trials?"
The teachers watched as Marvin thought about his response, silently preparing their Quirks, just in case.
"No…"
The heroes, particularly Nezu, breathed sighs of relief.
"I wasn't planning on anything," Marvin continued honestly, looking at the ceiling. "I was hit by an attack that put Izuku's life in danger, and I did what I thought necessary."
"Were Mister Bakugo's broken ribs part of that necessity?" Nezu asked.
"No, but I'll admit, I forgot how fragile most humans are," Marvin replied.
The teachers tensed, giving him nervous glances.
"Are you… not human?" Midnight asked.
Marvin made a so-so gesture. "I'm biologically human, but I, from what I can remember, have enhanced characteristics, like strength, speed, and senses. I also have superhuman stamina, though that's from training."
"So you're like a vampire," Mic said.
"No," Marvin replied. "My Quirk developed naturally. Yes, it's like that of a vampire, but I don't have their weaknesses. I've been drenched in holy water before, but it didn't do anything."
Aizawa gave him an odd look. "Why were you drenched in holy water?"
"People of my town thought I was a demon," Marvin replied honestly. "Thought my sister was an angel 'cause she was beautiful, but they thought I'd either been corrupted or was just born demonic."
He'd remembered that set of memories not too long ago, a night or two after Izuku had told Momo about One for All, and it had been quite disturbing.
Apparently, Marvin had been considered the 'ugly and rude' sibling for basically his entire life, while Rinai, or Ercasi by her real name, was the 'beautiful and kind' one, and it'd led to several people trying to deny he was related to her, or trying to kill him because they apparently thought he was ruining her image.
That second thought wasn't quite far off, since it was Marvin that forced the two to flee when Marvin was four, and Marvin that had gotten her killed, but Izuku had forced him not to think about those memories, to avoid another suicide conversation.
The questioning continued for a while longer, with each honest answer from Marvin making the teachers visibly more and more uncomfortable.
Eventually, the teachers decided to let him go, and Marvin stretched lazily.
"I assume Izuku will be able to continue studying here without issue?" Marvin arched an eyebrow, almost daring them to say no.
Nezu nodded. "Yes, Mister Midoriya will remain a student."
"Without you trying your bullshit again?" Marvin pressed.
Nezu bristled slightly. "Yes, without us trying… that again."
Marvin nodded. "Good."
He left before any teacher could stop him, not that they'd be inclined to given what'd just happened.
Once the door closed, the room exploded in chaos.
"He's insane!" Midnight cried.
"There's no way he's being truthful!" Mic exclaimed.
"He's rather egotistical," Thirteen stated, somewhat annoyed. "Did you see how he answered?! It's like nothing mattered to him."
"He does seem rather full of himself," Aizawa commented. "Quite unlike Midoriya."
Nezu raised a paw, and immediately the room went silent.
He sighed. "This experience was… a mixed bag to put it simply. But I do still have a question."
Nezu turned to All Might. "Toshinori, you were speaking to Mister Mikrai when we woke up, what were you discussing? It could possibly give us more information on why Mister Mikrai is… like that."
"Well… he told me he doesn't have a good track record with authority," Toshinori told them slowly. "Young Mikrai told me I was one of the only authority figures he trusted before–" He gestured to the destroyed office. "–this."
"What do you mean, 'before–" Nezu gestured to the office. "–this'?"
Toshinori sighed. "Young Mikrai told me how he trusted me, and how I'd lost a good portion of that trust with this incident."
He turned away, ashamed. "He told me how he would've answered if we'd just asked."
The teachers glanced nervously at each other, wondering just how much they'd alienated not only Marvin, but Izuku as well.
"Young Midoriya sounded so betrayed," The hero continued softly. "For the first time in years, I didn't feel like a hero… not when I saw how Young Midoriya and Young Mikrai reacted."
Every other teacher felt overwhelming shame take hold of them, and they shifted uncomfortably as they looked away.
"I… I've decided to help him," Toshinori stated. "Help Young Mikrai gain a body."
"What?" Aizawa exclaimed. "All Might, we still don't know how dangerous he is!"
"You don't have to help," Toshinori replied gravely. "And I'm not asking you to, but I can't let myself act out of fear again. I refuse to let Young Midoriya down again."
"Nezu?" Mic asked, turning to the principal. "What do you think about this?"
Nezu looked grave, his eyes dark as he remembered things far buried in his past.
"I'm afraid we've made a grave mistake," He stated softly. "And attempted to capture someone who, much like myself, has a history of being persecuted and captured."
There was silence over the room at his declaration, nobody daring to speak.
"What makes you say that, Nezu?" Thirteen asked after several seconds.
"Mister Mikrai mentioned these Hunters… people who tried to capture him," Nezu stated. "He also mentioned a government intent on capturing metahumans and performing genetic experiments on them. It isn't hard to put the two together."
More silence reigned over them, each of the heroes' faces morphing into horror.
"Did we just…" Midnight trailed off in horror.
Nezu nodded. "I'm afraid we did."
Aizawa's eyes widened. "Midoriya seemed so angry when he realized the Nomu at the USJ was a product of genetic experimentation. At first, I thought he was mad at the principal of the matter, but now…"
"Do you think he was experimented on?" Mic asked, looking slightly sick.
Nezu shook his head. "I'm not sure, but given the details– Didn't he begin attacking us due to Midoriya supposedly disappearing to him?"
"Mikrai was only in Midoriya's head because of a Quirk mishap, wasn't he?" Thirteen asked. "So another Quirk might affect that."
"He thought we had gotten rid of Midoriya…" Aizawa realized, becoming a bit sick. "That's why he attacked me after I used Erasure."
A collective 'oh shit' moment descended onto the heroes.
"He thought we killed Midoriya…" Aizawa stated for them all.
They collectively remembered Marvin screaming for Midoriya, and silently, and shamefully, wondered if they'd dug up something from Marvin's past.
"Toshinori… you said you were helping Mister Mikrai, right?" Nezu whispered.
All Might nodded softly. "Yes– I've suggested David Shield's help, and Young Mikrai agreed."
"Ah," Nezu replied, looking at the ground. "Then I will help as well I can… It is only fair."
The teachers eventually tried to clean up Nezu's office as best they could, not saying a word to each other.
When Aizawa entered his classroom, nearly late for the first time in his career, he couldn't help but feel immense guilt whenever Izuku looked at him, even if the teen said nothing.
Even when he announced the UA Sports Festival, amidst the excitement and cheers from his class, he couldn't shake the guilt whenever Izuku's eyes passed over him.
Other teachers reported the same.
.
Author's Note: Well, that's the chapter! Kind of heavy, but that's how it goes.
Blackwhip's been introduced, but some time will pass before Izuku can use it effectively, especially during combat.
I've actually got something really exciting (for me anyway, cause I'm a nerd lol) regarding the Quirks and their applications, that'll be introduced once Float comes into the picture.
And I know Nezu is the one who helps Marvin get a body in the original work, but since I-Island is going to work quite differently in this story, I might as well introduce David and Melissa sooner rather than later.
Currently debating on two things though, and wondering what you all would want to see.
Marvin, in the original story, had a body made mostly of energy thanks to Nezu, which allowed him to heal rapidly, and eventually use that energy-based body to use energy attacks, heal others, and even teleport to Izuku since they shared a mental link.
Even though Marvin doesn't and won't have magic in this fic (might make a HP/MHA fic with him tho, who knows?) he'd still be extremely strong if I gave him this here too. But I wanted to use it as a way to give his character growth, since he believes himself to only be useful for fighting, and the energy manipulation could help him grow out of that.
I'm unsure though, as he's already strong enough to rival and even beat Prime Izuku due to his strength, Factor, and skill, so I don't want to make him too OP. I could always make everyone else OP, which is what I'm leaning to, but I want to hear your opinions.
Second thing, I was looking over my plans for Marvin's romantic interests, and realized that Marvin is 18, so a fully grown adult, while Mina (who I planned him to be with) would be 15, which is weird to me since I planned his relationships to turn sexual for character growth reasons (more on that later).
SO, I want to ask, should it be kept with Mina, or should she be replaced with someone else and stay only as a friend with Marvin. Melissa and Rumi (Mirko) will stay, but if I replace Mina, I would put someone like Nejire in her stead, or just keep it between the three of them.
Also, Rumi and Melissa are adults too, so it'd be kind of weird for Mina to be the only underage girl there, especially by such a large gap (A minoooorrr).
So yeah, what do ya'll think? Please tell me in the comments/reviews, since I'm rather conflicted. Thank you and I'll see you all in the next chapter!
(Sorry for the long note, it's 2 am as I'm writing this and I think the caffeine's getting to me lol)
