   Summary

   Restart was a curious word. Quite common, by all means. Something about its simplicity, how it meant nothing and everything at the same time, may have been what led Izuku to choose it as the name of his quirk.

   Because it turned out Izuku wasn't actually quirkless. Low odds weren't no odds at all, and the quirk Izuku was born with despite the extra joint, which he named in the darkest corners of his mind, was simply and plainly Restart.

   After all, every time he died, Izuku restarted his entire life to this very same day, on top of this very same roof, behind these very same railings.
