The Ssssmokin' Hero: Deku!

Chapter 3

Boredom: The state of being weary and restless through lack of interest. It is that dastardly being that seeps into the mind of every living soul, draining its victim of its life force and willpower. It is the very thing that scares even the laziest of people and the most creative of minds. Hell, even the author himself had to remedy himself through the use of forced writing and cheerful music.

For Izuku he very rarely gets bored but when he does, he makes sure that the whole world knows of his suffering.

"IIIIIMMMMMMM BOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRRREEEEEDDD!", Wailed Izuku, clinging on to his pillow like his life depended on it. The young boy has himself sprawled all over his bed, with the All-Might sheets in complete disarray. Actually, his whole room is All-Might themed, the only exception being some 50s style furniture and his collection of cartoons in the corner. Its a good thing that his clothes aren't All-Might themed as well, because it would be an awkward conversation to explain why he would have All-Might undies. I mean really, are you really willing to wear your favorite hero on your crotch?

Weird questions aside, Izuku quickly sat at his desktop. He was thankful that he was not banned from using it, since he was grounded by his mother ever since the incident that took place about a week ago. From there he just spent his time re-watching old cartoons and practicing with his guitar, as well as watching videos of hero fights that recently took place. He is a bit irked that he wasn't there to personally see it, but does not want to incur the wrath of Mamadoriya and her brutish pan of punishment.

Quickly getting that horrid image out his mind, he opened up a video that would always lift up his spirits when the times were tough. This video in particular took place during last year's UA sports festival, when the finals took place. The final match between two students in the hero course, Tamaki Amajiki and Mirio Togata, was a sight to behold in Izuku's eyes. He remembered how the way the two used their quirks along with their considerable fighting prowess. It was unlike anything he'd ever seen in a match like that in the previous years before that. His near insane smile was practically glued on for the duration of the match, remembering when he literaly burned his notes into his notebook, smoke and all.

That was nothing compared to what happened near the end of the fight. As both fighters were now exhausted, Mirio decided to try to catch the gloomy guy off guard...by appearing behind him with his clothes off.

"Hahahahaha, no need to be so cheeky there, Tintin!HAHAHAAA!" he called out, banging his fist on the table. The first time he saw that, he nearly died of suffocation from so much laughter. After looking into it, he found it had to do with his quirk, which was some sort of transparency effect on objects. In retrospect it made sense, but you can't blame him for that not being the first thing that came to mind. The reporters who made the article about it certainly had a field day for weeks at the poor teens' expense.

"IZUKU!WHAT DID I SAY ABOUT STAYING QUIET!?", Izuku fell back on his chair from the sudden outburst from his mother in the kitchen, then quickly stood up straight in front of the door with shivering nervousness. "s-sorry, mother! I'll be good, promise!", he answered with a nervous smile.

"...good boy. I love you, my little Izuku!"

"I love you too, mom! More than anything else in the world!"

"Me too, but remember that flattery will get you nowhere~!", She said in a singsong voice.

True, but you can't blame a kid for trying right?

"Heheh, yes mom!"

Once he was sure that she wouldn't burst through the door, he let out a sigh of relief as his head hung in sadness. Say what you will about our crazy green haired problem child, but if there is one thing that he would NOT do under any circumstance it would be to make his mother REALLY upset. Hell hath no fury like a mother scorned.
