    Summary

    "I wasn't trying to rescue you."
    "Then what exactly would you call it?"
    "I was correcting them."
    Neito gave a short, incredulous laugh. "I didn't need correcting."
    "No, they did."

    Neito doesn't need Midoriya to tell him that Copy is powerful. He knows exactly how good he is, thank you very much.
    So when a pair of pro heroes decide to dismiss Neito's entire career as the product of "better heroes' quirks," he is perfectly capable of handling it himself.
    Unfortunately, Midoriya gets there first.

    One unsolicited defense of Neito's honor, a near-threat involving the Hero Commission, and a very loud argument about boundaries later, Neito is left with a considerably more troubling question:

    Why, exactly, was Midoriya that angry on his behalf?

    Or: Izuku Midoriya notices the absolute shit out of Neito Monoma. Neito discovers that being truly seen is significantly more dangerous than being underestimated.
