Anyway, Raccoon Izuku

---

Izuku is heading home after a long day, shoulders still smarting from school when he hears something in an alleyway. A clang and a couple loud voices. He knows he shouldn't look, or intervene at all, but Izuku has always been bad at listening to reason. He peeks into the alleyway, and then immediately hides behind the corner, chest heaving. Five guys, all surrounding someone on the ground. He's pretty sure he saw something metal flash, and oh my god they are going to kill someone. He chances another glance. He was right, the leader is holding a knife. He leans back trying to catch his breath. If he leaves, they are going to kill that person! But, if he stays, they might kill him! Or worse, recognize his uniform, trackhimdownfindouthe'squirklessandandattackhismomandthenshemightdieandtheyhewouldbetotallyaloneandohmygodhewasnotpreparedtodealwiththistoday.

Something catches his eye from the dumpster. A horridly bright neon pink stuffed raccoon head. Will it work as a distraction? The voices grow louder. He makes his choice and opens the dumpster to get it. And immediately regrets his decision because this isn't a stuffed animal head to throw, this is a fursuit. He almost laughs, because what is his life now. Then he slips the mangled but untorn suit on. It smells awful, but, if this works, the shock factor will be enough to scare them away. Or at least give him enough time to get the victim to run away. Hopefully. Maybe. He sends a brief thanks to his mom, just in case, and gets out of the dumpster. And almost immediately falls on his face. Then he is up and running but it's the wrong direction, it's towards the thugs not the victim and he's pretty sure he's some sort of noise but he's not sure what.

The first thug turns, sees him, drops the gun and bolts. The other four share confused looks before bolting too, directly into the wall, where they collapse, unconscious. Izuku stumbles to a shock, trips again and catches himself on his hands. He did not expect that to work at all. He's pretty sure his life passed before his eyes and Jesus he needs to spend less time watching All Might documentaries. There is a rustle on the right and a soft 'what the fuck?' and Izuku snaps his head over, neck cracking. The victim visibly bluescreens. Izuku makes direct eye contact, and then it hits him. He just saved someone. While dressed in a suit. A raccoon suit. What the heck. Relief and adrenaline bubble up in him, and Izuku's shoulders start shaking, trying to keep the laughter in. He fails. Out of the corner of his eye, he sees the person back out of the alley, but he is too busy trying to catch his breath. When he finally stops, he realizes that he can hear the distant sound of police sirens. And Izuku has another realization. He really doesn't want to explain this. Ever. To anyone. So he stands up, finds the right alleyway home and starts running.

Omake:

"Final question," Naomasa says, pad and paper in hand. "Who was it that caught you?"

The criminal changes from quiet to terrified and he abruptly starts blubbering. "I-I dont know man- it came from the dumpster and it was bright pink, oh God why was it pink and it was screeching and running at us and please please please can you put me in jail I don't ever want to see it again. It was big, why was it so big, I'm never going down an alley ever again just take me away please."

Naomasa writes the words down, then slowly blinks and looks back up. "What?"

The criminal leans forward, eyes flicking about nervously "Please get me out of here, I don't want it to come back, last month my brother lost his eye to a territorial raccoon over a piece of chicken and that one was normal sized. You gotta get me out of here before it comes back. I don't wanna be raccoon food man. Please."

Naomasa gestures for the policemen to take him away, bewildered because his quirk listed all of that as true. None of them had been lying. He had thought it a fluke, but no, even the victim had said something about a "deranged pink raccoon that stared into the soul and then started chittering/laughing." How is he going to explain any of this to the police chief? Or file paperwork? Does this count as an animal attack? He genuinely doesn't want to know.

Notes: In this story his laughter is now high pitched and quick, so yes, he did sound similar to a chittering raccoon. And yes, I can't spell Naomasa's last name for the life of me, so he stays Naomasa.

You know that one post about the girl (I think?) who sells her soul to Satan for a friend, and then Satan is attached? Consider I make it worse. What if Satan didn't put a time limit on that, simply because he(today Satan is a he) is patient. And he is attached, and doesn't really want her in Hell, but he can't cancel it, so he settles for letting her live a long life. However, what if the girl didn't tell him that she had a brain tumor/incurable disease and she wanted to get her bucket list done before she died with someone, but she didn't have any friends. And so Satan and her hang out every few days, but she hides her illness because she doesn't want her friend to worry. Then something happens, and Satan needs to go do something for a month or so, about four years after she sold her soul. And he comes back to find her in a coma. And he finds he can't do anything. But he doesn't know how long it will take before they decide to pull the plug. So he has to wait, and watch her slowly waste away. It takes sixth months, and by the end, she is as thin as a sheet of paper. When she pops into his throne room later in the day, the first thing he asks is "Why didn't you tell me?" And her response is "There was nothing that could be done, and I didn't want to worry you."

Consider that most would use Izuku as the personification of Light and Life, and Shinsou as the personification of Darkness and Death. Then flip.

Izuku being a kind death, welcoming darkness that takes the suffering souls, the hurt souls, and wraps them in his cloak of only black.

Shinsou being a tired life, with light more akin to moonlight than to sunlight. Shinsou giving karma to those that hurt others, and using his light to reveal the talents of those previously forgotten.

Izuku coming to gently lift a soul from a body, and Shinsou being that instinct in your head that refuses to let oneself give up on living.

Aizawa who thought he would get a mini-him and is now stuck with this super kind soft child that for all intents and purposes looks like a Sunshine Child.

Yamada thinking that he would get someone bubbly and talkative like him, and instead getting this lazy snarky child that would fit in better with the Abyss Children.

And of course, Nemuri and Oboro were the Dawn and the Dusk Mentors, though better known as Twilight children.

Quirk Rambles/Thoughts Part 2

Hagakure: Her quirk involves reflecting light around her, but what if it is less of her reflecting light by relaying it to the other side (because then there would be a time delay on the passing light waves unless of course she has another level between her cell walls that speeds up the light waves by a level appropriate to where it is and how far it has to travel She would also need to have more radiation protection for her DNA then). A theory is that her mutant quirk is that she is transparent. However, the closest thing to a non-scientific/ no prior knowledge answer is the below. And my current understanding of the quote below makes me believe that in order for her to be transparent, her atoms/cells would have to be dense. Like superdense. And also that she would have to have lots of similar cells. So ignoring the dense cell part, her cells being similar could work if she was made of mostly Stem cells. Or if her cells revert to stem cells and or close equivalents when not being used for bodily functions. However, we could also go the route of chameleon based, but that would require, again, faster time so there isn't a time delay, and coloring that can quickly be made to reflect the environment. All in all, it is interesting to theorize about, even if my current theories are mostly unusable.

"A material that appears homogeneous to the human eye is really made up of minute crystals--regions in which the atoms or molecules follow a regular order. The boundaries between these regions are called grain boundaries. If the distance between boundaries is smaller than the shortest wavelength of visible light (in other words, if the refractive index of the material is uniform with respect to the light passing through it), then the material will appear transparent. Each boundary tends to diffuse the light that passes through; if the regions are small enough, however, the light waves essentially 'jump' right over them."https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/what-determines-whether-a/

(Look, science!)

Mina: Her quirk involves acid, with differing levels of pH. However, does acid include the acids and bases, or just acids? I would assume bases are in the skin cells so that she can neutralize the acid before it reaches her organs. And that the skin cells regenerate faster, especially in her hands. However, this leads to another question; would she be able to survive for an extended amount of time in more acidic or basic environments? And, if her entire body was full of acids or bases, is her stomach more or less digestive.

Yaoyaruzo: Yaoyaruzo's quirk says it uses lipids to create things. However, I have reason to believe that these are not your normal run of the mill lipids. Yaoyaruzo can build anything. And that means that her body is able to either change protons and electrons and nuetrons on a atomical level (like a supercollider) without ripping apart or that her body stores everything. I also believe that the reason it states lipids is her bodies own defense mechanism preventing it from stealing any carbon from her actual cells. Because almost everything is made out of carbon. However, if her body stores everything, she probably gets really weird food cravings.

Tokoyami: Personally, I've seen a bunch of these different ones, such as being a combined twin with a shadow quirk and Tokoyami has a touchbased telepath quirk, or Dark Shadow being a physical representation of his emotions, but delayed, or even one where Dark Shadow is a demon that Tokoyami chained to himself and controls (mostly). I see them all and I raise you Dark Shadow is actually Tokoyam's Shadow. Not just physically, but also emotionally. So Dark Shadow speaks the thoughts and words Tokoyami is too afraid/embarrassed to say, or rather, the feelings, which would allow for the different personality (Tokoyami being happy makes Dark Shadow happier and more pliant but acts differently because people respond to emotions in different ways.) This would also explain why he gets bigger in the night; because Tokoyami believes that Dark Shadow gets more volitile and is scared, and so Dark Shadow is scared and reacts more volitile.

You know, you're scrolling your tag and you see like two ideas and you just want to smash them together? No? Well I do sometimes. So here:

Consider Izuku as a vigilante for longer than the police realize. They only have figured out in the past week or so (not the current year or two ) because Izuku basically cosplays as different underground heroes. And I'm not talking put a wig and outfit on and call it good, I'm talking wearing makeup, and indiscreet voice changer (or quirk at bottom), outfit as close as possible, with stilts or pumps heels even and contacts and wigs and mannerisms. He planned this out for months, spent hours researching different underground heroes just to get their mannerisms, fight styles, patrols and hobbies. He got so good he's fooling not only the civilians, but other pros at a distance. The only reason there was a report a new vigilante was out and about was because he literally ran into Eraserhead while cosplaying as him. So now Eraserhead is trying to find his double and Izuku is committed now to staying as Eraserhead.(He doesn't want to be caught in a different cosplay and cause more suspicion or paranoia). (Alternatively, he just focused on Eraserhead because he was the easiest to copy)

Notes on Izuku profile: Notably, there would be some changes. Considering Aizawa is 6ft ish/ 183 cm, Izuku would have to be decently tall to be close. Let's say between Shinsou's height of 177 (5'9) and Kirishima's 170 (5'6) so about 5'8-5'7 (Add 1in pumps) It's still a solid four inches, but if Izuku doesn't actually slouch as much, just gives off the appearance, or doesn't stand close to Aizawa, no one can tell. Also consider that his hair would be shaved shorter so that wigs would stay on easier. (More crew cut like, at least on the sides (think undercut?)) If you really wanted to, 3-4in pumps (but that seems clunky) Listen Izuku got really into his cosplay, of course he shaved his sides.

Effects of world around him? One, people are more confused about what Eraserhead's quirk is, because sometimes he erases quirks and sometimes he can...taze people? Move really fast? Heal overnight/in hours? (Because they switch) If USJ, Shigaraki takes longer because the underground has no clue what the cues are either

Two: UA could probably be for sixteen (not fifteen) years olds, just to make the height difference easier.

Three: On April 1st, Aizawa creates a truce and he makes the vigilante (Eraser Head or EH/Eh Rubberskull? Rubbernoggin? Pencillead? Leadtail? for short) be him instead. His friends only catch when Izuku starts skipping away. They have several seconds of bluescreening before that though.

Midoriya's possible quirk? Mimic: Whether it be just a voice thing, or expands to mannerisms and or quirk (very slightly/asthetics) (Shinso bonding or Monoma bonding?)

Or, alternatively, a minor shape-shifting quirk, not enough for permenance (does it once and it lasts for like 4hrs) and has to perfect by himself. (Or a friend who could do that to other people)

Finally, Echo: has a set of three quirks that he can echo- can activate for 3-5 seconds. Easier and longer the more time he spends in their presence, and are consciously chosen. (He can use his mom's for 20 minutes, but only because he grew up with her). (Monoma bonding?)

Other Random sidenotes:

Izuku bringing Shinsou in on it (maybe once on the day before the next April fool's, after he was caught)

"Are you sure it isn't mitosis? Because I'm staring at three Aizawas and I'm pretty sure I'm not seeing things "

If the whole class is involved:

"Guys, Aizawa multiplied. There is no class, and mini-hims are all sleeping around campus. I almost tripped over one of them on five separate occasions."

"You think that's bad? We ran out of coffee again. We bought coffee beans last week! One of them even hissed at me like Aizawa does when I tried to get my own!"

Meanwhile Aizawa: no schoolwork :)))

Random student: *traumatized* there are neon yellow catapillars everyone and Everytime I look back they've gotten closer

Other random: At least you know where they are. When I look back, they Vanish

Izuku standing next to Aizawa, both dressed as Eraserhead.

"Are you sure it isn't the shorter one?"-Mic

*Both give Mic a disappointed look*

Mimic!Izuku in 1A:

"Guys guys watch this- *changes to Aizawa voice* -Hi I'm Aizawa, I'm 30, going through my midlife crisis, sleepless and part cat and catapillar. Also I despise everything-"

Or *in Aizawa voice "*cackles* Logical Ruse!"

Bnha/Mha Fusion AU

Okay, so I recently found the fusion artworks for bnha (or mha) and I love the idea. However, I got this new headcannon about for Izuku. So in my headcannon, for the fusion to be stable, it has to be 50/50, right? And the 50/50 is the physical aspect and the mental aspect.

Since Izuku is nice (fuses really easily) Bakugo practiced fusing with him a lot. Since their personalities are basically opposites, they were really unstable though. And Bakugo would get really mad when they unfused. So Izuku learned how to split differently. (90% physical and 10% mental) to stay stable and let Bakugo take the reins. (He mentally hides so Bakugo can't verbally bully him in his head) And since he fused with Bakugo the most, even after getting into UA with AFO and taking Fusion Classes, it remains this way.

So the majority of his fusions are basically someone else in (mostly) his body using their quirk. Aizawa is confused/worried. Izuku thinks he's doing great because fusions are always meant to be stable and his fusions are always stable! (he also does this kinda as a mental safety feature because they share thoughts and he doesn want them listening to his muttering or depressing thoughts)

Aizawa is all like "kid that isn't how fusions are supposed to work. It's supposed to be 50/50"

Izuku: "It is 50/50, though, see?"

Aizawa: *knows Izuku is technically correct, but is inherently wrong* "50/50 on both mental and physical aspects"

Izuku: "But then I like it better this way"

Aizawa: "kid..."

(When working with his friends, it ends up increasing more towards 20-25%)

And since the Sports Festival, let's say Shinsou joins "for practice" So imagine Aizawa's surprise when Shinsou and Izuku merge, and they end up a good 35-65% physical aspect (Izuku obviously being more) and instead of getting more positivity as Aizawa expected, they get more determination, better quirk use and somehow more dark jokes and sarcasm. And then afterwards Shinsou just stares at Izuku before they are assigned to move. (Because Izuku mutters some helpers and lets Shinsou hear him because he knows how it is to be in Shinsou's place and wants to help/inspire)

And then Shinsou skips practice with Aizawa the same day (Aizawa is totally not concerned/upset... not at all...) (During which, Shinsou is like "how do you understand me? You're just another person with a flashy quirk whose been told all their life that they'd be a great hero!" And Izuku is like "My quirk came in during the Sports Festival" and Shinsou is like "oh." and then Izuku gives him more pointers on his quirk, lets him practice on him, and hugs him when Shinsou just stares at him, shocked that he didn't get scared away) And then when Izuku and Shinsou do it again, it is 50/50 and Aizawa is impressed... and then concerned again. Because even though it is 50/50 the personality is still double sarcasm and dark jokes and determination. Although now they smile a bit more and help others. And now Aizawa is wondering how much of the cinnamon roll is actually positivity and not a mask. And also why the heck they are still scared of teachers or mistrust other students.

ShinDeku:

•Still sarcasm and dark jokes

•more determined

•smarter quirk use for Shinsou

•good tactics

•likes helping others

•has nice smiles like Izuku, just harder to get

•excellent poker face/acting skills

•almost godlike reflexes

•more confident, (Izuku building up Shinsou) but still insecure (More Shinsou, some Izuku)

•Less likely to take words to heart than Shinsou

Quirks: Brainwashing and AFO (enhances Brainwashing too by upping victims pain threshold to snap out of quirk)

Extra Ability: Charisma

When used, can effectively inspire audiences, as well as cause people to trust them, and make people 25-50% more likely to answer.

(I feel like Im required to make a fanart now, so ta da?) (I couldn't figure out the hair so it's stripes now I guess)
