Blossoming Performance

Chapter 1: Roots Of Rhythm

Izuku Midoriya. A man with dark green unruly hair, and a goal to save as many people as he could in his life woke up in the place he'd be staying for the next year. He was a bit on the shorter side, only reaching about 5'11, but what he lacked in height he made up for in his quite muscular build. He was, as one would refer to, a total nerd, and was great with both numbers and most assets of geek culture. His eyes were bright green, and most would say they shimmered with a bit of boyish charm.

His life evolved around never being good enough for anything, but now here he stood in this prestigious university and proving all of those naysayers wrong. He would make sure to excel above and beyond so that his deeper goals could come to fruition. He was a determined man, but he wasn't an idiot; he knew there would be many challenges, but now was the time to be excited. It was his first day after all.

He was in a dorm on the campus of Yuuei University. He was one of the few students to get in with a scholarship, but it was thanks to his heightened intellect and near-perfect analysis. He was accepted into the prestigious university thanks to his mentor/sponsor Yagi Toshinori. Today was going to the first day of his classes, and he made sure to get up bright and early so that he could start the day off right.

Izuku rose from his bed, staring around his still unpacked room. He'd have to finish unpacking later today after classes as he moved in yesterday. The green-haired boy stood from his bed and stretched and smiled at the opportunity to start a new life here at this prestigious university. It was all thanks to one man that he'd have the chance to do great things in the world.

'Today's gonna be a good day...' Izuku thought as he went to prepare himself for his first day. Izuku stepped into his own private bathroom; it was attached to his bedroom and all the students got a private bathroom for their own personal use. He quickly undressed and stepped into his shower, making note of the terrible water pressure. The boy had a good build, he was lean but also quite fit with well defined muscular structure. He worked out quite often thanks to Toshinori.

As Izuku stepped out of his shower and looked at himself in his near-fogged up mirror he pondered if he should try and do something with his hair today. It wasn't exactly like him to try and tame the beast that was his unkempt hair, but trying to make it look nicer than it already did in it's shaggy state wasn't really his style.

He decided against it, and instead brushed his teeth and quickly got dressed for the day. He was going out in a plain red sweatshirt, black sweatpants and his trademark red hightops. It wasn't one of his more "flashier" outfits, but it was casual and comfy; something he could wear a bit proudly. This was going to be his first day at school, he had to show confidence. Even if only a little, he wanted to seem a bit prideful despite the fact he was a nervous wreck deep down.

The boy grabbed his longboard and yellow backpack and exited his room. His roommate, a quiet man with two distinct hair colors- White and red- stood in the kitchen cooking breakfast. He turned as Izuku exited his room, but said nothing and opted to return back to his breakfast. Izuku sighed, his roommate refused to interact with him at all.

He tried to introduce himself but all he got was a short conversation that was cut short by him locking himself away in his room. His name was Shouto Todoroki, and he was a thermal dynamic engineering major, but that was all Izuku had gathered from their conversation. He respected the option of keeping to himself but at least try to make thing's a bit less awkward, maybe? Izuku was awkward enough as it was.

The greenette shook his head and grabbed a granola bar, he didn't have time to be worrying about his roommate right now. He took a deep breath and exited his dorm, he'd need to hurry if he were to make it in time for his 9am class. He was an analytics major and had quite a lot to do in order to keep up with his mentors expectations.
