Izuku Midoriya was a sweet and kind-hearted boy. If you asked anyone in class 1-A what they thought of their young friend, they would always answer with 'too kind for his own good, extremely caring, happy, sunshine, protective, needs to be protected.' But most of them didn't realize that Izuku was slowly falling apart. They didn't realize that he had a mask. They didn't realize that he wasn't as chipper as he seemed. When they do finally realize that he is sinking further and further into his depression...will they be able to pull him out? Now when you ask them what they think of Izuku, they answer with 'needs to be protected at all costs.'

Other tags: Extremely protective class 1-A, no pairings...well yet anyway, emotional-physical hurt/comfort, OOCNESS(please don't comment on the oocness of this story. I'm aware that it is OOC. You don't have to tell me, thank you.) Also I have nothing against height differences. I'm short myself.

As a child, Izuku Midoriya thought he was Quirkless. That is, until he discovered his luck was far worse- he did have a Quirk. One that granted him the ability to steal other Quirks. Desperate to prove to his classmates, to their parents, and to the world that he's not the villain his Quirk suggests he is, he dreams of becoming a Pro Hero. If only his Quirk just wasn't so villainous. That might make the process a bit easier.
