Lonely.

Nate has always been lonely. What with his parents expectations he needed to fulfil.

That's not how it worked out though.

Due to spending the majority of his time trying to please his parents, he never had the chance to make any friends.

His parents wanted him to be the best, and he tried, he really did. But he was never good enough.

He'd spent hours practicing his quirk.

The rest of the day was spent studying.

For years that was his daily routine.

Wake up, get ready for the day, eat, train, eat, study, eat, train, ready for bed, sleep, repeat.

He worked hard, as hard as he could, but he was only able to be proficient in his quirk.

When it came to knowledge, well, it was so boring he couldn't concentrate.

As a result, his grades were worse than what anyone thought was even possible.

They might as well have had a sloth do the work.

In all honesty it was probably the endless amount of video games he'd play whenever he could that turned his young mind rotten.

As for his quirk. He was 5 years old when his parents discovered that his quirk wouldn't work without caffeine.

They only found out because he had found his dad's bottle of Pepsi Max and had a drink, causing his quirk to activate immediately.

Let's just say they were 'pleasantly' surprised when they realised they had to give a 5 year old caffeine.

Fun times.

When the time came for the U.A recommendation exams, his parents booked them all a flight straight to Japan.

He was accepted, bringing small smiles to their faces.

Still not enough to please them apparently.

So what did our resident dumbass do?

He gave up.

Literally.

No more trying to please those bastards.

And that leads us to where he is now, sitting in the back row of his class room, 1-A, paying zero attention whatsoever.

Thinking, 'someone please save me!', as he watched the rest of his class socialise, waiting for their teacher to show his face.
