Summary
REUPLOAD. accidentally deleted the first work
Learning Izuku had no quirk at all was a blow to all of them. Inko was worried about her reputation amongst her peers and, much more quietly because she could barely bear to admit it to herself, that this somehow meant something was wrong with her. Hisashi went into denial the second he heard that there was a .0002 percent chance that Izuku could develop a quirk despite the extra feet bones, teeth, and organs. Everything he’d spent a lifetime building crumbling with one doctor’s meeting was unacceptable.
He’d never allow it.
Izuku was only four, he was still trying to figure out what that meant, why all the adults were so upset. So he did what any four year old would do- turned to his mom for comfort and reassurance.
“But I can- I can still be a hero, right?” He asked, eyes wide and holding back tears as his favorite All Might video played on loop in his memory, competing with the doctor’s words that he’d most likely never have a quirk playing on loop. For the first time in his life, his mom didn’t answer him.
Inko just turned away, covering her mouth with one hand as her own tears began to fall. Nothing was ever the same after that day.

Day at the Aquarium by emphasis_on_ghost_writer

Summary
The zoo trip ended in utter disaster, that went without saying. What also went without saying was that the kids deserved a do-over and an actual nice day out. That didn’t happen immediately though, because as much as Izuku loved animals, any animal really but especially his sharks and now snakes, he’d turned gun shy after the attempted abduction.
It was an understandable reaction, even as much as it broke his parent’s hearts, but it was something they could work on.
And work on it they did, so that by the time the weather started to turn with the spring Izuku finally felt safe enough to try again. Not with the zoo, he was still really nervous about that location in particular (also understandable), but luckily that wasn’t the only place in Musutafu with animals. In fact, it wasn’t even the best place in Musutafu with animals that pertained to Izuku’s interests in particular.
This outing, they went to the Musutafu Aquarium and Rehabilitation Center.

Summary
Pros who not only survived but thrived in the underground all had a few things in common- one was keenly honed situational awareness on a nearly unrivaled level.
The other thing they all had in common was the ability to sniff out every ounce of chaos in a five mile radius and the inclination to… indulge in it on next to no notice. Kaina had both those things in spades and she was early anyways, so whatever it was the rat had planned she was sure she’d enjoy participating in. Even if those plans involved practicing basic french with an adorable eight year old with the curliest green hair she’d ever seen.
Kaina took that back. Even if those plans involved somehow finding herself stuck in what couldn’t be described as anything but an interrogation from a terrifyingly smart, adorable eight year old with the curliest green hair she’d ever seen.
Then it got better, because the person she actually came to the school to see stepped through the door and it wasn’t because of her. It was because he was the terrifying adorable curly green haired kid’s dad. Everything was starting to make so much more sense now.

Summary
“Hey Izu, why don’t you come sit with us for a minute.” Shouta caught the eight year old as he was leaving the restroom the day after the successful Dragon raid. There were certain things they couldn’t tell him yet for various ethical and professional/classified reasons, like the entire bombshell dropped by Inko right before Snipe tranq'ed her into unconsciousness, but they could tell him enough. He deserved to know his bio-father, the biggest threat to him, was off the streets. It wasn’t technically for good, not yet, but it was as good as.
Nedzu already promised them if the man pulled some fancy lawyer shenanigans and managed to get himself out of the hot seat that they could take some… less than legally approved methods of getting rid of him, for good.
(The chimera also had a penchant for hacking into things he shouldn’t, like hospitals and detainee’s medical records. He’d already confirmed neither Inko nor the baby, approximately fourteen weeks along, had suffered any long-lasting ill effects from the tranq dart. Snipe hadn’t known what she just told Oboro and Nemuri when he fired the dart, but it was what it was.)

Summary
“Okay, I need everyone to listen up please.” Miki got the class’s attention. “We need to talk about the Annual Talent Show! This is the last one you’ll put on as elementary schoolers, so we gotta make it a good one!” Not for the first time, he found himself glad that Somei had it’s teachers stay with the class through both the elementary and middle school years (he was also glad he’d stayed in school the extra years to get his certification in both areas, giving him the opportunity to teach in school systems like this).
“We should perform a song this year.” Kyoka immediately turned to the friend group, the same way she did every year. So far though, they’d always turned that down and ended up doing something else. This year though, she finally got her wish when Hitoshi nodded and said he thought that might be fun.“Really?” She blinked at him, honestly taken by surprise. Usually the Yamazawas were… less enthused with either potentially singing or potentially being seen by that many eyes.
“Yeah.” Hitoshi nodded. “You keep telling me my poetry is good for music, I think it’s time to put up or shut up.”

Summary
Shouta wanted to polish those skills, but Hizashi put his foot down on taking Izuku into the cityscapes before he was sure the kid had a solid grasp on the basics. The voice pro knew it was more or less an unfounded concern- Shouta would never let Izuku go splat, get a little bruised and battered so he could actually learn yes, but not go splat- but as mom he felt he was entitled to one (1) unreasonable concern.
“Really?” Izuku wasn’t that impressed with the argument, but Shouta just nodded, already forming another point of attack. If he couldn’t take Izuku up a building yet, he’d just take him rock climbing. Kaina even had a membership that let her take guests at a pro-only gym that had a better rock wall setup than UA did, and she’d been practically begging to be let in on training her precious little nephew.
“I just can’t believe our precious baby boy is growing up!” She dramatically (and loudly) cried once Shouta and Izuku were actually able to meet her at the gym. “Didn’t I make you promise to stop growing on me? Every time I turn around I feel like you and Toshi have sprouted up another six inches!”
“Our?” Shouta raised an eyebrow at his mentor-turned-friend’s antics.

Summary
“Izu.” Hitoshi’s eyes glittered as he drew his brother’s attention. “It’s time.” He intoned.
“Time for what?” Kyoka asked, instantly suspicious. She loved Hitoshi, but everyone who thought he was the calmer/better behaved of the two was wrong. He just had a higher tolerance for people’s bullshit than Izuku did.
“It’s almost like you don’t trust me.” Hitoshi grinned, pulling out his phone again. “Just watch this.”
Eri couldn’t accompany the rest of the family to the school to wish everyone luck in person, so they did the next best thing and recorded her to show the rest of the friend group.
Everyone. Immediately. Melted.
“Awww, Eri!” Toru immediately sniffled. “I would take a bullet for her.”
“As you should.” The other five said as one. It was a common call and refrain for them; Eri was simply the most precious child to ever exist.
“We must do our best today!” Tenya declared, arms as choppy as ever. “For ourselves, our mentors, and Eri!”
“For Eri!” The other five agreed, startling most of the middle schoolers milling around behind them. None of them noticed the way a particular blonde’s eyes widened when he glanced over at the commotion.
