"Toshichan!" Izuku yelled, running over to his friend, Hitoshi waved back running to greet him as his mother spoke to the moving men.

"We're going to next to each other!" Hitoshi beamed, taking his friends hands.

"And you'll be starting my daycare next week. I'll bring my hero dolls and we can play heroes!" Izuku declared, the boys laughed as Midoriya-san went over to Shinso-san.

"Izuku has been so excited about you moving next door." She smiled.

"Hitoshi has been excited too." The women glanced at the boys, who were talking excitedly about heroes.

"Like two peas in a pod." Midoriya-san chuckled.


Aizawa Shouta had expected his unexpected visit to go quickly. He, however, had not expected that The Shinso family were moving right next door to the Midoriya family. He looked up at the apartment building, wondering if it was a good idea to check in on them that day. That decision was not made by him though.

"Eraserhead-san!" The two boys gasped, running over to the pro hero. He looked down at their beaming faces. They reminded him of Yamada Hizashi, also known as the pro hero Present Mic. "What are you doing here?"

"Making sure you two don't have ideas of running off again." He said it wasn't a complete lie. He was quite concerned with the boys, but at least they seemed happy.

"No, Eraserhead-san." Hitoshi shook his head, the boys took hold of each other's hands. "We'll stick together and stay close to home."

"Good." He nodded.

"Oh, Eraserhead-san." Midoriya-san had come down to check on the boys, she looked at the pro hero with confusion. "what are you doing here?"

"He was worried 'bout us mama!" Izuku giggled. "Eraserhead-san is so cool!" Aizawa looked at the kids, no one had ever admired him in such regard before. Whilst, that was how he liked it, it was kind of satisfying that these two boys thought highly of his work.

"Well, thank you. Would you like to come in for some tea? we never really gave you a proper thank you for finding Izuku and Hitoshi."  Midoriya-san asked. Aizawa gave a curt nod, he needed to have a word with the women anyway. The boy's cheered, they grabbed Aizawa's arms and practically dragged him up to the house. Midoriya-san muttered something about improper manners. Aizawa sighed, these kids were definitely like Hizashi.

"I actually wanted to speak to the two of you about something." Aizawa said, the women looked at him. Hitoshi and Izuku were in the other room, cheering at the TV, Aizawa had assumed they were watching heroes on the news.

"Why?" Shinso-san asked

"From what I heard yesterday, Midoriya-kun is quirkless and Shinso-kun has a quirk people don't like. Either way, they still want to be heroes, right?"

"That's right, Hitoshi can brainwash people who speak to him, because of that other kids call him a villain." Shinso-san sighed, Midoriya-san patted her hand sympathetically.

"And Yes, Izuku is quirkless, I assumed he would have a  quirk like mine or his fathers, but no...It destoryed him... I wish I could do something about." Midoriya-san bowed her head.

"Well, there is one way they may be able to achieve that, if they still want to be heroes after middleschool of course. If they could get into the general studies course at U.A, thn do well in  the sports festival, they could be moved up into the hero course." Aizawa told them.

"They could move into the Hero course?" Midoriya-san asked

"Yes, it's how I ended up getting into it." Aizawa nodded, none of them had realised that the two boys had joined them. They were silently listening to the conversation. "The trouble is, I don't know if the school board would cause issues with someone being quirkless and entering the U.A, they probably would. However, there is no rule saying someone quirkless can't enter, they just need to pass the exam. I have been trying to get them to change it as the current ractical does need a strength related quirk to pass, becuase of this they are missing out on potenial great heroes all due to their type of quirk. Whilst I know they are still both too young. I think you would like to know they still have a chance at their dreams." The women sat in silence, allowing his words to sink in.

"We can be heroes?" Hitoshi asked, the adults glanced down at them, Izuku was clutching a notebook.

"I make notes..." He mumbled holding out the book towards Aizawa. He took it and opened it, the first thing her noticed was a drawing of a the pro hero All Might, it was clear that Izuku had writen what he could about his quirk, but Aizawa knew it was only from what he could see when watching him. All Might was very good at advoiding the conversation about it. He checked the next page, another pro-hero, Ectoplasm. There were notes about his quirk too. There were a round seven heroes in the book, each had had their quirks discribed in great detail, what they did strengths, weaknesses.

"Izuku had been writing about heroes since finding out he was quirkless." Midoriya-san explained.

"I see..." Aizawa muttered, how could this kid figure so much out from whating videos wih the heroes. This kid...was something else. "Midoriya-kun, may I borrow this?"

"Why?" Izuku asked

"I have someone who may be really interested to see how good you are at figuring out quirks. I want to show him." Aizawa said. Izuku thought about it, before nodding.

"Okay." He said with a smile Aizawa glanced back at the note book, was it possible for this kid to have a quirk like his? If so, was it also undenifyable by doctors?
