Izuku: Variety

Blood of the Nine-Tails

"Are you the secret love-child of Naruto Uzumaki?"

To any of the other members of class 1-A, the deadpan stares would be intimidating. But Todoroki's abusive childhood has left him with so little social awareness that he's completely unaffected.

"Oh, is he still around in this timeline? In mine he's a distant ancestor."

Their heads whip around so fast it's a wonder they don't get whiplash. "YOU'RE RELATED TO AN ANIME CHARACTER!? THAT'S FREAKING AWESOME!"

Kaminari's shout has the animal Alternates' ears flattening as they both scowl at him. "Watch it, Pikachu, or I'll turn you into a cactus."

Her threat elicits a round of chuckles, though there are a few notable exceptions who take it at face value. They've seen such a wide range of capabilities from their classmate's Alternates, can they really discount her actually being able to follow through on it?

Evidently not, seeing as she gets annoyed by the laughter and snaps her fingers, causing a cloud of smoke to erupt under Kaminari, obscuring him from sight. When it clears, they see that their classmate has been replaced by a yellow cactus with a pattern of black flowers shaped into a lighting bolt near the top.

Now, the class knows they should be shocked. Horrified. They should be trying to fight her in order to get her to turn their friend back to normal. But after the day they've had, dealing with the more threatening and chaotic versions of their usually mild-mannered friend? This is basically nothing.

"Ooh, ooh!" Mina raises her hand as she jumps in her seat. "Could you turn him into an actual Pikachu!? If you do that to half the class, we could have a Pokemon tournament!"

Kitsune blinks at her for a moment before looking over at the Alternates lining the wall behind her, who are giving her their own appraising looks. She nods understandingly before snapping her fingers again, repeating the process that turned Kaminari into a cactus to reverse it. "I didn't actually turn him into a cactus," she explains while Kaminari frantically pats himself down.

"Kitsunes have been well known in the mythology of my world as tricksters, and part of my abilities reflect that in me being able to make illusions. I also have increased physical abilities, fox fire, and can transform into a fox."

"Ability? Not quirk?" Midoriya asks as his pencil jots down notes so fast that a line of smoke rises from the tip. "And, sorry, weird question, but not really if you've been here as you said, did something related to you dying cause your powers to manifest."

Several heads snap towards him, though Bakugou is the only one who scowls. Those whose concern for his mental state has reached an all time high are starting to think they should walk him to Hound Dog after the Alternates get sent back, instead of trusting him to go himself. Or tie him up and carry him. Not that they don't trust him of course! But he's never been particularly... good, at looking after himself. Which is only reinforced by the fact that, so far as they can remember, the first time he's fought without breaking something is when they did the Provisional License Exam.

Kistunes coughs into her hand before looking away, scratching at her cheek. "Well... yes." She waves her arms in front of herself. "But I didn't try to kill myself! I mean, I thought about it after All Might crushed my dreams -which of us hasn't?- but I couldn't do that to Mom. I actually got caught in the crossfire when Endeavor was fighting a villain and set me on fire, which awakened the latent power in my blood passed down from the Kyuubi."

They look like they're going to continue before sighing and looking at the ground in resignation. "...And turned me into a fox loli. Officially nobody knows why, but before that I was a boy."
