#Kacchan demanding he use it in some dire situation

[flaresanimedump]

where do the plotbunnies go to die now huh? where am I supposed to talk about the tragedy of "quirkless" Izuku, the boy born with a quirk he can never use again.

when he's four his best friend is killed by a villain, a terrible ruthless villain who hates anyone with strong quirks. And then the next day Izuku's quirk manifests like a gif from god: the ability to travel back in time up to three days. So he goes back, and he tries to save Kacchan, and he fails. So he goes back again, and he tries to save Kacchan, and he succeeds. And he's happy: he has a powerful quirk, and Kacchan has a powerful quirk, and they're going to be heroes together.

And he doesn't notice that he had to wait longer to go back the second time until he uses his quirk again to save a dog about to be hit by a car. Immediately his memory of that day changes: he barely made it in time, because his quirk manifested three days after Kacchan died.

Izuku is a smart boy. He understands. It's the price he pays for using his quirk: it manifests one day later with each use.

The next time he uses his quirk, Kacchan will die.
