   Summary

   Izuku Midoriya got taken to a foster home as soon as he got his quirkless diagnosis. His foster families have never cared about him in the slightest. His bullying gets worse, and his run in with All Might makes reality crash in on him… though maybe if he can’t be a hero maybe just maybe he can help the heroes out a little
