Re: Midoriya Izuku

[i_am_here]

[Midoriya? Here?

He hadn't even... but that was just like him. Taking a deep breath, he proclaimed in his best muscle voice,] I AM HERE! TALKING THROUGH THE NETWORK LIKE A NORMAL TRAINER!

[In truth, Toshinori was very, very unhappy for Deku to be here. Mostly because whatever cruel fate had brought him here after his fateful battle, he..., All Might, was a Rocket.

HOW CRUEL!]

[nolongeruseless]

[What the... Holy crap, even All Might is here? Good grief, what is this place, when did he sign up for this ride?] A-All Might? Is that really you?

[i_am_here]

[Midoriya's frantic reply soothed All Might's responses, as he turned the screen onto himself with a relieved smile.]

Midoriya. I am glad you're here. I'm sorry but our contact must remain a secret so far. I am... busy. And I didn't want to burden you.

But that being said, how are you?!

[nolongeruseless]

[A secret? But why? Guess he'll have to find out later.]

I'm good. I ran into Kacchan already, too. [Ah, that's right!] All Might, is your quirk gone too?

[i_am_here]

Good, young Bakugo will need your help, as much as I will need yours later on.

[Despite his muscle form, his smile drooped a bit.] Yes, it is. I don't know why, but I'm like this, even without my quirk.

[nolongeruseless]

Haha, I don't think he'd be happy to hear that...

[That is concerning... Good that All Might isn't in his other form, but concerning.] I see... Then I suppose it will happen to anyone that comes here, then.

[i_am_here]

This is a land of cooperation and just values. I am sure he will have to adapt as well as I expect it to happen.

[If he was in his other form, he would be a trainer, not a rocket. This world had a cruel sense of irony.] Indeed. I have heard reports of people with quirks of their own, having been removed, along with any weaponry and mobility powers as well.

[nolongeruseless]

In his own way, I suppose. [Aka bruh, with all due respect, do you know him?]

Really? That's... [Kind of amazing, actually. But also worrying.] I wonder how that was accomplished... Someone with a more powerful version of Eraserhead's Quirk? Or maybe some sort of machine for the same effect that activated once we came to this world. But the technology for that would have to extremely advanced, and it doesn't look like we're somewhere with technology more significantly advanced than ours, so it'd have to something hidden from the general public. But explaining the sudden arrival of people while doing so... [And he starts muttering on and on, in his usual way.]

[i_am_here]

[He's holding out hope! Some... tiny hope at least? That Katsuki wouldn't try to burn down the landscape... kinda...]

Oi, oi, oi, you're thinking about it too much! Honestly, we can probably just decide it's a blanket thing and no one would have quirks here.

That being said, I know our contact has to be under the table so... want to have lunch? Where are you?

[nolongeruseless]

Ah... R-right... [Yes, let us leave the mutterings for later.] I'm Pallet Town. How about you, All Might?

[i_am_here]

I am not far, just a little ways out from there.

[mostly after he had gotten 'released' from initiation, All Might had headed immediately to Pallet Town to check things out.]

I'll be there shortly.

[nolongeruseless]

Alright. I'll be near the lab.

[i_am_here]

[It's not long before All Might shows up, and he's walking.

No leaping heroically into view.

Just walking with the cutest Togepi at his side.]

Yo! Lunch time is a go then?

[nolongeruseless]

[All things considered, Izuku can't help but smile when he sees All Might casually strolling to him. It's nice to know to that as long as they're both there All Might has no need to keep his secret from anyone.

He nods in response to All Might's question.] Mmhmm! Ready!

[And look who else has a Togepi, who's waving at All Might's! Twinsies!]

[i_am_here]

Great! [he held up a picnic basket, recently loaded with food on the way in. Muscle form or not, he had an appetite.]

I've seen a grove over there, we can talk.

[Togepi is cheerfully waving as well.]

[nolongeruseless]

[He nods again as he picks up Deku the Togepi.] Let's go, then.

[As they walk, he looks up at All Might to speak.] How long have you been here?

[i_am_here]

A few days. Long enough for me to get oriented.

[Finding the grove, he set out the blanket and sat down cross-legged before retrieving several items of food.]

I woke up in a different place than most trainers. Suffice to say it, it has given me no amount of shame.

[nolongeruseless]

[Izuku sits cross-legged on the blanket too, sitting Deku the Togepi on his legs, and he grabs a piece of bread and breaks a bit to give to his Pokemon.

All Might saying he's ashamed of where he woke up, though, surprises him more than a bit.] Eh? Where did you wake up?

[i_am_here]

[All Might looked worried, his smile faltering a little.]

Keep it a secret between us, but I woke up in Team Rocket HQ. I am... a villain. As much as it pains me to admit it...!

[Yeah there's tears of shame there.]

[nolongeruseless]

[Izuku just stares at All Might with pure horror in his eyes as he registers what he just heard. The first thing that comes out of his mouth is one of his trademark distressed screams, complete with tears forming on the corner of his lips.] No... A-A-All Might... A villain... How? How could that happen?

[i_am_here]

Believe me I have no idea! It just happened without any warning!

[Oh man, this was bad. And yet All Might was burying his face in his hands.] How could the Symbol of Peace become a villain in this world due to some arbitrary fate?

[nolongeruseless]

[The tears just keep flowing. How could this be? What was this injustice?] All Might... [Meanwhile, Deku the Togepi is wondering what the hell is going on while eating his bread. After some more crying, Izuku wipes his tears.] Y-You're working on a plan to get away from them, right?

[i_am_here]

[Laying a hand on the shoulder of Izuku, All Might smiled and gave him a thumbs up.]

Working on it! I'll have a concrete plan. I might need to spend some time in lockup but if I turn myself in, it might expedite my separation from the organization. Trust me, I haven't done anything bad.

For now, I need to play along. Think of it as heroic undercovering. I don't relish the thought of doing anything bad however. But if I can find some actual work for good, then all the better.

[nolongeruseless]

[Hey All Might, did you more tears from Izuku? Because that gets more tears from Izuku.] All Might... In jail...

[i_am_here]

It's okay! [Exclaimed All Might, patting him heartily on the shoulder.] Hey, hey, hey wipe those tears away! I'll probably only be in for one day. I doubt they can hold me, and just keep an eye on me where I go. Think of it as probation, instead of being a fully fledged trainer.
