Just a bunch of Deku AUs

Cat/Neko AU (Timeline/Origin Story)

The experience was traumatizing enough for Izuku: getting mentally and emotionally bullied, hurting somebody unintentionally, being at risk of getting expelled- but his main focus was his newfound power. Izuku was both curious and terrified of his claws- after all, the girl had to go to the hospital in order to make sure she wasn't blinded. If he could find a way to control them, they could be a powerful self-defense against villains. If he couldn't fine a way to control them, he may accidentally hurt someone and/or himself.

When Inko was called to discuss the situation earlier, she noticed how Izuku was clearly trying to say something about what had been happening before he injured his fellow pupil. She also noticed every time he tried to explain himself, the girl he attacked, her parents, or even the principal would interrupt him, saying stuff about how Izuku 'shouldn't play the victim' or how 'It doesn't matter who started it, you hurt her.' The girl's mother even went as far as to say that Izuku was dangerous and should be 'locked up with all the other villains.'

This p*ssed Inko off to no end. She knew she couldn't do anything to change these people's minds, but she still tried her best. When her and Izuku got home, she immediately asked him everything that had happened the past few years- she realized her mistake, and she wanted to hear everything. Izuku decided to tell her about the bullying, but didn't go into many details- he never named any of the bullies except the girl, nor did he mention was she had said before he lashed out. Inko was furious, and wanted to burn Aldera to the ground on how ignorant and biased they had been against her son. However, Izuku managed to calm her down, saying that the worst had been over for a long time, and right now they needed to focus on how to prevent Izuku from mistakenly hurting anyone else.

They went to see a quirk doctor the week Izuku was suspended (which was also the week the sludge incident was supposed to happen, so neither Bakugou or Izuku was attacked). The doctor said although it could've just been a one-time thing, it was much more likely Izuku's emotions triggered it, and the best course of action was to try to keep them under control to prevent it. However, if Izuku attempted to train the claws to form at command, he may have even more control on whether they form or not. 

After the suspension lifted, everyone ignored Izuku. Most reactions he got from people were either a wary glare or a flinch. But surprisingly, some student's complemented him, saying how they never knew he had it in him to nearly blind someone. Apparently the girl he attacked was a bit of a brat, playing with people's emotions and even going as far as to change her appearance to imitate dead relatives/friends of students, then making fun of them if they believed she was them for even a split second. Due to her polite nature towards teachers and her impressively high marks, she never had a reality check that she wasn't 'queen of the school' until Izuku attacked her. Even Bakugou muttered a "Good job, nerd" when no one was listening. 

However, it's pretty safe to stay Izuku was happy when school ended.

~Timeskip to UA Time :D~

Izuku tried out for the hero course for... obvious reasons. He managed to save Uraraka, and got a two-pointer down, for about 35-45 points altogether. However, due to his past records of lying about classmates and attacking an 'innocent' girl, he was placed in 1C, the general education course.

Izuku was both disappointed and angry he didn't get into the hero course. The past records refused to actually share the full story, and Bakugou's records were clean as wet wipes, not counting the mentions of his anger issues. However, he decided that UA was a new start. Nobody, excluding Nezu and a handful of teachers such as Aizawa and Vlad King, knew about his not-so-ideal past, and he intended to keep it that way as long as he could. He resumed his old happy and upbeat (repressive) attitude, although he was a bit more quiet and didn't try as hard to make friends. However, just because he didn't try as hard doesn't mean he didn't try. Towards the start of the year, Uraraka noticed him at lunch and introduced him to Iida, Tsu, and some others in 1A. He also managed to befriend his classmate Shinsou and Todoroki during the sports festival. 

Shinsou and Todoroki also were the first people Izuku even told them a bit of his past in a roundabout way (Ex., 'It sucks when people assume your dangerous over something you can't control' or 'If there's one thing I hate, it's when nobody believes you're telling the truth, even though you are'). Shinsou had guessed Izuku might've had not so good of a past either and started to be a bit more kind to him (at least, kinder than the start of the year), and Todoroki didn't really get the point- he does use his left side, though.

Enjoy some old-fashioned bullet points:

-The worse most people see Deku is when he's talking to Kacchan. If looks could kill the two would die every time they ever interact. 1A are all curious on unlocking the tragic backstory between the two, but both of the boys deny any accusations of acting weirdly angry around each other

-Deku continued to attempt to train his quirk ever since Junior High ended. He can summon his claws most of the time, but it takes a bit of concentration and sometimes they don't form at all, so he doesn't form them much unless he's training

-Some idiot probably tried to flirt with Izuku by calling him 'kitten' or something along those lines. Izuku told him to f-ck off and walked away

-Izuku doesn't like fighting, but he doesn't exactly shy away from it, as shown above. He more so just walks away as to not get super p*ssed and almost blind someone again. Basically, whenever Izuku isn't acting nice, he's tired with everybody's crap.

Back from another writer's block- I broke my own rules again and stayed up to finish this. But it's fine, it isn't as late as last time and I haven't posted something in a while anyways. I'm semi-unhappy with this chapter, I don't feel like it's that good, but I have much more coming soon (hopefully) that'll (hopefully x2) make up for it. Also, we're like 200 away from 1,000 reads, which was unexpected to say the least. 

Anyways, I hope you all have a wonderful day/night, kings, queens and queers! Drink plenty of water and remember that you're amazing!
