Summary
At seventeen, Midoriya Izuku enters U.A. with a quirk that sets him apart in ways most people can’t quite explain. He’s quiet, observant, and always just a little distant- as if he’s listening to something no one else can hear. It’s easier to keep his head down, to avoid questions, to let people misunderstand him.
Shinsou Hitoshi doesn’t misunderstand- he judges.
Used to being looked down on for his own quirk, Shinsou is quick to assume Izuku is no different from everyone else who never had to struggle. Someone with power. Someone who wouldn’t get it.
He’s wrong.
Because Izuku’s quirk isn’t simple- it’s isolating, invasive, and far heavier than it looks. And the more time they spend together, the more Shinsou starts to notice the small things: the way Izuku hesitates before acting, the way he avoids certain situations, the way something unseen seems to follow him wherever he goes.
What starts as tension slowly shifts into something quieter- curiosity, understanding, and something neither of them expected to find. But getting close to Izuku means seeing the parts he keeps hidden, and not everything he carries is easy to face.
