Chapter Text
Izuku knew it was going to be a bad day... but this... this was not what he thought would happen...
Sure, he knew school would be a nightmare, between Kacchan and his explosive nature and his lackies egging him on, school just hasnt been the same since his quirk came in.
Back when he was 4 he was so excited to receive a quirk, any quirk really. All he ever wanted was to be a hero, especially so he could help support his single mother. Those thoughts quickly changed when his quirk did come in. His voice became so loud he deafened his poor mother.
Inko had always tried her best to provide for Izuku, but between having to help him learn to deal with his new quirk, learn JSL herself, and try to find a job that accomodated her new status among the auditorily disabled, she had her work cut out for her.
She did eventually manage to find a late night job stocking a local grocery store, but money was tight to say the least. While Izuku didnt have the best of everything, Inko always made sure he had what he needed, even going out of here way to scrimp and save to be able to afford a new, to Izuku, Hero figure on his birthday.
This is why all he could feel while he sat at the detective's desk was... numb? No... empty... he felt empty and truly alone...
