First of all, thank you so much for taking the time to read my little story (assuming you did)! I know that it's fairly short and probably not the best but I'm very proud of it nonetheless. I'm actually considering taking this timeline and story and lengthening it into a longer chaptered fic. If anybody was curious at all, I wrote out a bit of the story and timeline so you can get a better feel for what's happening.

So basically, after Deku meets All Might for the first time and he's told he can't become a hero without a quirk, that thought he expresses for merely a millisecond in canon expands and takes over him. He walks a longer way through the city so he won't have to come across All Might or another hero, so he doesn't take note of the slime monster fight that would normally be considered his origin story.

After being told by the #1 Hero and his personal idol that his dreams are unrealistic and futile, Deku slips into a depression and locks himself in his room for several weeks. During that time, he burns his half-written UA application. Basically, stuff happens and he spirals from depression to frustration and eventually rage and a burning hatred for all heroes, All Might in particular. 

His loathing becomes so deep and pure he seeks out Giran, who sees potential in him and helps him secure a spot in the League of Villains. Now, normally a quirkiness boy would be their last choice, but Deku's considerable quick-thinking and ability to make calm decisions in battle stood out to them. And of course, his notebooks contain the strengths and weaknesses of nearly every hero in Japan strengthened the deal greatly.

In that ten-month time when he would normally train under All Might, his status in the League grew so much that All for One approached him with a deal: he could provide him with a powerful quirk fit to destroy heroes if Deku could get into UA and feed them information from the inside. Deku agrees instantaneously and works towards receiving his power, the nature of his quirk I still haven't figured out. 

Long story short, he gets the quirk, gets into the hero course and joins 1A as the secret UA traitor, befriending his classmates and charming his teachers while also helping the League to grow and plan its attacks. After that, the series progresses relatively the same with Deku participating in various sinister things with the League until this, when he murders his mother and leaves UA.

I know that he's really out of character, but to be fair all Villain Deku is. I wonder if anyone would read a fic of that, but if you would please tell me! Again, thank you for reading my one shot and now this whole author's note, you're really a trooper. There's a link to my Villain Deku Spotify playlist if anyone wants it:
