Gran Torino made a mistake.
The new kid here for his second ever internship was interesting to say the least.
A prodigy who won the sports festival.
As much as Izuku hated to admit it, he still looked up to All Might. He was his hero, the person who kept him alive without even knowing it. He hated idolizing someone like that. But he was, well, All Might.
But what he never expected was All Might to take an interest in him.
He'd approached him again after the sports festival, bringing him in to a private office in UA. Before poofing into a skinny man, couching out blood.
Which was a bit of a shock.
There was something about this boy. Midoryia Izuku. He was something special. And the fact that All Might himself was considering making the boy his successor. Well, Nighteye wasn't exactly thrilled.
He wasn't a carbon copy of All Might. But he had that spark, the thing that truly makes someone a hero. No hesitation towards someone in danger and baring that pain with a smile, or in his case a smirk.
He was truly, extraordinary.
Grab Torino had allowed this internship when All Might practically begged him. Even though he had no idea why All Might cared so much. (All Might didn't say anything about him being a potential successor.)
He'd done his standard prank. Just to see how the kids would react to a seemingly dead Torino.
But the sheer familiarity that Izuku had shown.
He'd pulled himself towards the spot Gran Torino was sprawled on the floor and immediately checked for a pulse, sagging with relief.
Too familiar for a child. Why did this child know what that's like?
Like he said, he made a mistake.
"Okay kid, ready for patrol?"
"Yeah."
"If we encounter any villains your technically allowed to use your quirk under my supervision but-"
"What the fuck is that thing?"
"Oh shit."
