[complete] the swan dive | the first diary - katsudeku

day twenty five

unfortunately, i was unable to go to the pool again.
instead of clear water, i was mixed up with green slodge. slime. sticky.
guess who came to save me.

number one of them all,
good ol' all might,
the hero we used to talk about
when we went to the mall.

that doesn't happen now.
i grabbed onto his leg,
clutched tightly until we got to a rooftop.
you'll find out about this sooner of later,
i assume.
but,
i asked him about quirks.
was it possible to achieve your dream
without having these perks?

he told me no,
and my dreams were shattered.
there on the rooftop
i really wanted to jump
and be splattered.

i held back,
i was glad i did.
because on my way home,
you were caught by the same villain
that was released by an open lid.

when i saw you,
i didn't want you to die.
you wouldn't be alive
to see my last surprise.

so i went to grab you,
to squeeze you,
to hold you.
to release you from this monster's grasp.

when all was over,
when all might punched him to oblivion,
you were okay.
my luck was equivalent to a four leaf clover
despite being scolded for my recklessness,
and you are praised for your supposed 'bravery'

all might approached me today
and gave me the hope that i needed
to continue until the end of the year.

i got my own quirk, kacchan.
i wonder how you would react.
