Izuku had hoped that if he started with the limitations of Collection and offered one of his quirks instead of taking, then people's reactions wouldn't be so bad. Students in front of him were whispering. He tried his best to gauge their reactions.

"Did people treat you poorly because of your quirk?" Shinsou asked almost immediately.

"Well." Midoriya scratched the back of his head. "I've been hiding it most of my life, but when the cat got out of the bag, folks back in Junior High had a mostly negative reaction. I'm sure there it was due to bad apples blowing the issue out of proportion." He stared at Katsuki, silently condemning him.

"I wish I could hide my villanous quirk."

"Can you put your original quirk into an object?" Istuka raised her hand.

"I tried, but it doesn't work like that. I think it's a subconscious self defense mechanism, like how you can't tickle yourself."

Camie instantly tried tickling herself to no avail.

"Huh, never knew it was a thing. I have a question." She turned towards him.

"Yes?"

"Why is your hairstyle so lame? I mean, you lowley look like a bum."

"Well, at least it's not about my quirk."

"Umm, I never cared about my looks all that much."

"You totally should, otherwise people with think you're got no taste." Utsushimi pulled loliipops from her pocket. "You want some?"

"No, thanks."

"Don't mind if I do." Fatgum took one for himself.

"Next question?"

"How long have you been lying, Deku?" Katsuki's voice was unusually calm but still full of venom.

"Deku? I don't anyone by that name." Green head decided to ignore his old nickname.

"Stop fucking with me, you..."

"Bakugou!" Fatgun raised his voice. "One more warning from me and we are going to principal's office."

"Tsk." Ash blond grunted in response.

"Are you unhappy with your quirk, Midoriya-kun?" Shiozaki asked.

"No, my quirk is fine. I'm unhappy with all these idiots who call me a villain for no reason."

"That is a good view on life. Quirks are blessing from our Lord. We must not view them as evil." Divine light occured seemingly from nowhere.

"My quirk is anything but a blessing." Shouto almost said it loud.

"How long were you going to hide your quirk?" It was Brando's turn to ask.

"I am not sure. Originally I was going to do it indefinitely, but now that I think about it, there would be another sludge man situation sooner or later. If the choice was between my secret and lives of innocent people, I'd chose the latter any day." He looked at the photos of his parents, feeling their disapproval.

"That is certainly commendable." Tenya replied. "Putting other people's well being over your own is the essence of heroism."

"Agreed." Teacher nodded.

"Wrong. Essence of heroism is beating the bad guys and staying on top!" Bakugou diverted attention away from Izuku.

"Geez, what a jerk." Kendou thought.

"Midroriya, do you think you can beat a Tirannosaurus?"

"Eh, I mean... Maybe?"

"The correct answer is no, and if you think otherwise, I'll beat your ass to prove it!"

"I... look forward to it, Romero-san."

"Does your quirk come with hunger to consume its brethren?" Tokoyami said.

"What? I mean, no. I never had an urge to use Collection on other people. Why would you think that?"

"It just seemed fitting to me. My apologies, Midoriya."

"It's fine."

"Did you get into legal trouble over that stunt?"

"You have no idea."

"Yes, and I'd rather not talk about it."

"Why do you wish to become a hero?" Uraraka mumbled.

"I simply want to save people with a smile on my face." Izuku put on an innocent smile.

"Ahh."

"So cute."

"He he he, okay." Space girl seemed uneasy for some reason.

"Let me ask a question." Tokage spoke up. "The name of your ability suggest you are planning to accumulate quirks in the future. Is that true, and if yes, how exactly?"

"I probably shouldn't talk about HPSC thing."

"You see." Izuku gulped. "There must be people willing to give their quirks in exchange for something else, like money or other quirk. I don't really have a plan right now, but I ought to come up with something."

"Can you steal quirks from villains?" Pony tried to ask correctly.

"You mean permanently? Police made me return the sludge villain's quirk immediately afterwards, so that is unlikely."

"Forgive me scepticism, but how can we trust you not to take our quirks and use them for your own benefit?" Momo wondered.

"Using quirks on each other outside of training is strictly forbidden, and that includes lingering effects for longer than necessary." Toyomitsu answered instead. " Rest assured, Midoriya will be subjected to the same level of scrutiny as everyone else."

"I understand."

Questions were over for now. It was time to go the opening ceremony, where 1A could see all the other classes, as well as all the teaching staff. Some students couldn't believe that even mundane subjects will be taught by pro heroes. All Might (in the flesh!) gave an inspiring speech about doing everything Plus Ultra, regardless of one's occupation; then principal Nezu and several UA alumni talked about future developments of hero industry. It would be a shame if someone were to miss this awesome ceremony.

Fatgum asked his students to put on gym uniforms and meet him outside. Apparently his colleague Eraserhead reccommended him to conduct a quirk apprehension test. On his way to the changing room Midoriya was stopped by Yagi Toshinori.

"Hello, sir." Green head bowed down.

"Hello. Your father asked me to get All Might's singature." He handed over the family photo. "I'm not sure why. You will meet him soon anyway."

"I think he wanted me to have a good memory of him before he leaves to America."

"I suppose there is a logic to that."

"Sir, how did you manage to become All Might's representative? The competition must have been stiff."

"Would you look at that?" Blond man stared at his watch. "I'm already being late. Sorry, kid. I'm need to go." He sprinted out of the corridor.

"That was weird."
