  Summary

  When a world is filled with people born special, does the word "Normal" have meaning anymore? When everyone is born special, born with a quirk, does that mean someone who lacks one is more, or less, special? If a Quirk makes you special, and everyone is special, then you can't call me a "Quirkless Normie", when I'm anything but normal.

  Where being Quirkless doesn't mean being powerless. It means everyone is due for a culture shock, some confusing emotions, and Izuku realizes his dream of being a hero is well within his reach, even if he has to hurt again and again.

  (Quirkless = Heavenly Restriction sorta)

  Summary

  A Quirk is nice and all. But Two is greater than One. Three is pushing it. Four is just obscene. Hold on, that's only one Quirk? And what's with these weird little goobers!?

  In which Izuku is born with a Quirk that acts very strangely, and confuses everyone with it. All Might in particular is stressing out, because why does this kid have four Quirks!?
