I never thought I would be able to become a Pro. My quirk wasnt all that great at first. Empathy- I could make others feel any emotions I've felt before, up to 10x stronger too. I can also see how others are feeling. It ain't that flashy, I know.
I was always a daddy's girl. I was my fathers youngest child, and only daughter. I had two half brothers who were already adults. My family originated in the states, but me and my dad ran off to Japan. My dad made hella money over here, and life was better for the both of us. I was away from my half brother thats on my moms side, the sociopath was a terrible big brother. My dad got away from all the drama and peopling. We're both big introverts. I was the only person he wanted in his life. Sure, he loved my brothers, but his ex wife wouldnt let him see them. Don't get me wrong, he's a great dad. It was grandma that forced them to marry after my dad got her pregnant. My dads side of the family is very old school.
Three years after moving to Japan, I was 14 years old, finishing off Junior High. That's when my life got turned upside down. My dad got in a horrible accident as a bystander at a huge villain attack. He didnt make it. I skipped school for two weeks, staying at my dads side while he was comatose in the hospital. It was early in the morning when he passed, and I was left to take care of myself.
My severe anxiety settled in after that. The only reason I was okay after dealing with my brother is because my dad was there for me.
Of course, he gave me everything in his will. I had no idea he saved up so much money. Was he hoping to help me buy a car and my own house? It was so much I couldnt think of any other reason. Later on I learned that some of the money was actually my grandparents'. My dad was their youngest, so their will was signed to him. Their cabin on the lake in the states was left in my hands. It would make a great summer home.
I saved most of the money for later. It was plenty to get me by my teenaged years by myself without me having to get a job. I was relieved. My newfound anxiety made it especially hard for me to get employed.
My severe anxiety also helped me gain something very important. My weak quirk was now a powerful one. I could become a Pro Hero someday.
I got the mental help I needed, and enrolled at UA high. I learned how to make my quirk even more powerful, with the help of music. Present Mic gave me private lessons and training for my voice, and also help me figure out the hidden power my quirk held.
With music, I could use my quirk at a long range. My quirk works when I physically touch someone, or make direct eye contact for 3 seconds. But sound is vibrations. And vibrations are physical. I was already a great poet and my poems usually brought people to tears, so for the sake of my quirk I became a song artist.
But that is not what the hidden power is. After the infamous sports festival, I got into the hero course and went on to a week long internship. To be honest, I was just training with Mic like usual, but without classes getting in the way. Mic had this great idea for me to apply my quirk to myself and see what happens. This turned emotions into physical power. If I listen to a song that makes me feel invincible, and apply my quirk to myself, then I become phsyically invincible. It was a total game changer.
I went on to become a powerful Pro Hero, and a popular one at that. Capturing villains was child's play for me. My anxiety times 3 was enough to make any average villain paralyzed in fear.
I turned out to be great at rescuing too. I can sing a calming song to victims who had just been rescued, helping them feel safe and happy on what would easily be the worst days of their lives.
It wasnt only what I could do that made me popular. I shared my story with the world, how I'm only here now because of the trauma I went through. I inspired so many people, especially young teens, to push forward through their dark times.It's been awhile, and things calmed down a bit. I'm still well known as a hero, but I'm not as popular as before. I go on patrols every now and then. I save people nearly every day. But most of my time is spent at home.
I still live at the house I shared with my dad, but its hard to take care of myself without him here. That's why I'm an age regressor, and the world knows about that too. I spent my high school years carrying around the same teddy bear, and I still keep her by my side for the most part.
The happiest parts of my life was with my dad. He babied me and spoiled me like all hell. I believe if he was still with me today, he would still do the same.
Maybe someday I'll find someone who will love me and baby me. I could really use a caregiver. Recently, especially recently, I have been staying home and laying in bed. I try to regress and get some me time, but I havent been able to get into little space.
The holidays are coming up, and I'm lonely and kind of depressed. I spend a lot of time napping or eating. I just dont have the motivation to do much.
Speaking of holidays, I got a party this weekend. All Pros in the area are invited. Hopefully this will bring my spirits up. Maybe all I need is some human interaction.But that's a lot of humans to interact with . . .
