Unexpected Reward

Summary:

Deku saves an old woman while on patrol without taking a scratch, but when the woman says she wants to reward him? The next thing he remembers is waking up in the hospital in a girl's body.

Though she's not sure what's weirder, the fact that it happened or the fact that she sort of doesn't want to go back to normal.

Notes:

Woah I wrote something that's not Persona 5 related? SHOCKING

To be honest the idea popped into my head and in my experience? The only way to get an idea out of my head is to write it, wasn't really planning on posting this but then the story went on longer than expected so I figured 'why the hell not'.

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Work Text:

As he slowly awoke in the hospital he found himself more than a little confused. He couldn’t quite remember exactly what he was doing that could have landed him in the hospital again, but it was easy enough to assume he overdid it and went too high above his limit.

And I thought I was getting pretty good at making sure I don’t hurt myself… I don’t think I even went over 25%!

As his vision slowly came back into view though he quickly realized something more serious was wrong… Sure his green hair was unkempt and maybe a bit long, but it had never completely obscured his eyes before…

How long have I been out?! He slowly pushed the long hair out of his face while sitting up in his bed.

Even stranger still was the obvious lack of pain in his body, normally when he woke up in the hospital his arms had been completely shattered, usually multiple times over, but at the moment? He didn’t feel any pain at all, if anything he felt better than he ever had before.

He was pulled from his thoughts when the door to his room swung open, a familiar smiling face practically jumped into the room before her happy expression was replaced by a confused one.

“Dek-... oh, sorry, I must have gotten the wrong room” that just confused the poor boy even more

“What are you talking about Uraraka? I’m right here” his voice sounded… odd but he figured it had to just be from dehydration maybe?

Looking around he quickly realized he wasn’t in a hospital at all, he was back in UA’s nurse’s office. A place he frequented even more than hospitals as a matter of fact…

“Uhhh…” the brunette girl gave him a wide eyed look of shock, as if she had just seen him grow a second head

“I told you that he might not look recognizable to you…” the calm and somewhat monotone voice of Todoroki filled the awkward silence before the boy walked into the office himself, “Midoriya, how are you feeling?”

“I… might not look recognizable? What do you…” at long last he looked down and quickly made a highly feminine ‘EEP!’ at the sight he took in

From what he could see with the patient’s gown on, his entire body had been changed from head to toe. Most of his musculature was still present, but his waist had narrowed, his hips had widened, his thighs were far bigger and stronger while his arms had slimmed a fair bit, and of course the change that had the hero-in-training the most embarrassed was the modest bust present on his chest…

“Wh-what happened?!” he shrieked, “Wha-wha ho-how did?!”

“We were hoping you’d have the answer to that you damn nerd!” Deku had been so caught up in his flurried panic that he hadn’t even noticed Bakugo enter the room

“We all went on a patrol with Endeavor this morning, we got separated because you ran off to handle some nearby emergency and when we found you?” the icy-hot boy motioned nonchalantly to him, “You looked like that”

“I-I don’t remember this happening!!” he threw the sheets over himself all the way up to his chin, feeling as if he were naked and had to cover himself up

This isn’t one of the quirks in One for All is it? I finally get a handle on Blackwhip and now this happens?! None of the other quirks I should be getting involve body changes though…

“Is it possible a villain did this to me? I was going after an emergency but…” he devolved into his usual mutterings, holding his chin fiercely in thought

“He will turn back to normal right?” Uraraka looked between the other two boys as if they had any idea

“How the hell am I supposed to know?!” the angry blonde shouted in return before scoffing and storming out of the room, “Figures that you’d be the one to get hit by that ridiculous power, Deku”

“Unhelpful as ever…” Todoroki deadpanned, “What do you remember of the patrol this morning? Start from the beginning and maybe it’ll jog your memory”

“This morning…”

 

 

By that point of his internship with Endeavor, Deku was pretty used to the patrols they had to go on. Both himself and his classmates were steadily getting better at keeping pace with the abrasive number 1 Hero. That was why he had so much confidence, the instant he heard a shout he bolted off on his own at Full Cowling: 20%, figuring that would be more than good enough to get through the alleyways without any risk of going too fast and breaking walls…

He made it there just in time to use Blackwhip to pull an elderly woman away from a rampaging villain. In a lightning fast motion he calmly set the lady down before leaping forward into a powerful kick that struck the low ranking villain in the back of the neck, knocking him out cold in a single instant.

He didn’t waste any time and immediately scanned the area, looking for any possible accomplices or motives for why this villain was even here in the first place. But without much else to go on he decided to approach the elderly woman to see what she knew.

“I hope you’re not hurt” he almost felt that would have been docked points back in the licensing exam for that, “Do you have any idea what that guy was doing?”

“Oh I haven’t the slightest idea… he almost looked like he just completely lost his mind” the grayed woman looked over at the unconscious body with a worried look

Maybe he was on something? A quirk enhancer maybe? Guess we’ll know more for certain once he’s arrested

“Oh but I must thank you! You really saved my life there” Deku felt himself preen at the praise

“I’m just glad I could help and that no one got hurt” he smiled genuinely at her before he started to move to jump away, reaching out his hand to grab the villain with his dark tendrils before he felt a hand on his arm and everything went black…

 

 

“So you think this elderly woman might have been the one responsible for this?” Todoroki folded his arms, his brow creased in thought, “Why would she do that to you after you saved her?”

“Maybe she was in on it?” the brunette offered, cocking her head in confusion, “Or maybe it was someone else?”

“Was the villain there with me?”

“Yes, we arrested him, so it wasn’t someone that was on his side that did this to you…” the icy-hot boy hummed in annoyance, “I’ll ask Endeavor if he can have his sidekicks try and find the woman you described”

“Thanks… uh… wh-what am I supposed to do for now though?” his face immediately started burning up at the thought of having to go class like this

“You’ll just have to deal for now…” the ever-exhausted Aizawa was the next guest to walk right into the room, “Once we find out who’s quirk is responsible for changing you like this we should be able to reverse it…”

“So he has to go to class while he looks like this?” the brunette girl gasped, giving the green haired… boy a sympathetic look

“He can’t exactly just sit around and wait for this to be solved…” with a yawn the teacher gave the green haired student an unamused and bored look, “Just explain what happened to your classmates, it’ll be fine… though I suppose for the time being we’ll also need to provide you with a new uniform…”

“Wh-what? Why?” he definitely felt like his face was on fire now just imagining having to wear the girl’s uniform… though, it didn’t honestly seem all that bad aside from the embarrassment…

“You might not be able to tell while laying down but you lost quite a bit of height” Todoroki filled him in, “You’re old uniforms probably don’t fit at all”

“There you have it… I think Recovery Girl might have already put some new uniforms in your dorm now that I think about it… For today just rest up and you’ll get back to class tomorrow” and with that Eraser left the room without another word

“At least you’ll be able to explain to everyone what happened at the dorms” Uraraka gave a nervous laugh, knowing all too well that wasn’t a very helpful thing to say

“R-right…” he muttered weakly, looking down at the still present scars mangling his arm.

So it didn’t heal me… the only thing it did was make me a girl? Why would someone hit me with that power?

 

Getting dressed to head back to the dorms was… an event to say the least. Without much in the way of options, considering that he was in the nurse’s office, he just wore what he had worn and left in the office after his last visit… He was glad to at least have a very large hoodie… They weren’t kidding about the loss of height… Now it extended mid way down his thighs, on his legs he wore a now much too long pair of sweatpants.

At least with clothes like this it’ll be less… obvious…

He was certainly glad Uraraka and Todoroki had decided to wait for him outside the nurse’s office, the trio walking back towards the dorms in a group. With each step he felt his heart pounding in his ears, why does this feel so… serious?... It was just an accident… plus it’s not like I’m going to be this way forever or anything… He frowned a bit at that thought without even realizing it.

Unfortunately for him, the entire rest of his class, minus Bakugo who had already gone to his room, was waiting in the living room for him to return to the dorms. As could be expected Iida was the first to run up to the trio.

“It’s good to see that you’re better Midoriya!” he karate chopped the air at the green haired student before his expression turned incredibly confused

“Yo what’s up with the hair?” Kirishima walked up to the group next, now that Deku was standing up he realized his green hair reached all the way down to the middle of his back now…

“Are you shorter than you were this morning?” Jiro asked before he could even answer the last question

And unfortunately the questions didn’t stop there, nearly the entire rest of the class had eventually surrounded him. Luckily for him though, once the volume got too loud…

“Alright everyone, quiet down please! I’m sure Midoriya has had a long day!” Iida’s class rep nature always came in handy during times like this… well, times where Deku needed quiet to think, “I’m sure he’ll be able to explain if we just give him time without bombarding more questions at him”

“Uhm… w-well I uh… y-you see…” his voice became even higher pitched as he went, fingers nervously fidgeting together in front of him

“He got hit with a quirk that changed him into a girl” Todoroki dryly explained, getting a big handful of gasps from the entire class, none louder than the green head himself

“I-it’s not permanent!!” he quickly added in with a cherry red face

“We hope…” Uraraka mumbled right after

“Seriously? Woah, how in the world did you get hit by that kinda power?!” Kaminari was wide eyed and more than a little excited…

 

Everyone had more or less moved to the dining table as Deku told the entire story again, of course all the while his face had been coated in a bright red blush while he was having a very intense staring contest with the floor. 

“And then I woke up in the nurse’s office…” With a sigh he finally looked up at the rest of the class, “I-it hopefully shouldn’t take too long to figure out how to get me back to normal…”

“Man, why do you get to get hit by the makeover quirk?” Ashido pouted from across the table

“I… don’t think that’s what it did” he sighed but immediately felt another ramble coming on, “I think perhaps it flips your sex? But I’m still not sure why someone would hit me with that quirk, there isn’t really any tactical advantage to it but I guess it does render the target unconscious, I wonder how it works? Maybe it operates on the cellular level and as such requires a massive amount of energy so it renders the target unconscious for the duration of the transformation or maybe-”

“You’re doing it again” Tsu calmly broke him from his ramble, sitting just a few seats down from him

“S-sorry…”

“You never miss a chance to analyze, even quirks you get hit by” Jiro prodded him with one of her earphones, “That’s some serious dedication dude”

“It’s easiest to analyze powers that I’ve experienced before in my opinion, that’s why I have such an in depth understanding of Kacchan’s quirk” he explained matter-of-factly

“That’s probably not a good thing…” Sero sighed, “So like… what are you gonna do for class?”

“A-” his face flushed immediately again, he was so caught up in analyzing that he forgot the situation he was in…

“He’ll have to keep going to class and he can’t exactly take that much time off from Endeavor’s agency” Todoroki calmly stated, “...though, Midoriya, maybe you’ll need a new costume for the time being…”

“Th-that shouldn’t be necessary!” he immediately screamed unintentionally

“Calm down man, no need to freak out like that” Kirishima looked a bit taken aback by the sheer high pitched sound of Deku’s voice

“Sorry…” 

“Well it’ll be nice having another girl in the class! Even if it’s only temporary!” Hagakure cheered from somewhere nearby, fittingly he didn’t even know she was in the room

“That’s!… th-that’s not!!-” 

“Why the hell are you screaming so damn loud Deku?!” Bakugo screamed from the stairs, “Can’t I get some goddamn peace and quiet for once?!”

“S-sorry Kacchan…” he sighed while slumping back in his seat

“Tch, even if you’re a girl now you’re still the same annoying ass nerd” the blonde huffed and stormed back upstairs

“I-I’m not…” he didn’t bother finishing his sentence, just sighing again

“While rude, Bakugo brings up a good point, should we refer to you any differently than we currently do Midoriya?” Iida was as professional and rigid as ever

“Th-that won’t-”

“Of course we should! She’s a girl now, right?” Ashido jumped up from her seat

Huh… why did that feel… His cheeks definitely felt like they were smoking from how red they were now.

“Uh… I-I uh… d-don’t really mind” she looked away, idly running a hand through her long green hair

The rest of the evening went more or less the same as normal, most of the class had opted pretty quickly into calling her feminine pronouns, with every ‘she’ and ‘her’ she heard the weird feeling in her chest and brain just grew stronger and stronger… By the time she went to bed that night she didn’t even really know what to think anymore…

 

 

Going to class in the girl’s uniform was… interesting… She had woken up extra early that morning, already painfully aware that it would take her eons to muster the courage to put it on. As if the skirt wasn’t embarrassing enough though apparently Recovery Girl had left a few sets of new underwear and bras for her… Which on one hand was very nice but on the other was so… incredibly… embarrassing.

Figuring out how to get the bra on was honestly one of the most difficult trials in her life and she was ashamed to admit that she wound up using Blackwhip to help her with the clasp when she gave up trying to get it on normally, she definitely wasn’t proud of that one.

The skirt on the other hand felt… really good… like really really good… She had never really thought that much about clothes before, usually content to just throw on whatever she grabbed first and didn’t waste much time looking at any of it. Obviously her self esteem had never been great, largely thanks to Kacchan, she knew that. She did feel better as she got more in shape but… thinking about it?

 

Early in the Semester

 

Izuku was staring at himself in the mirror, a bit of a frown was clear on his face. After all that time he spent training he had quite a fair bit of muscle and he was proud of it! It took a lot of work but molding himself into being a fit enough vessel for One For All was absolutely worth it and yet… He felt just a little hollow.

It wasn’t that he hated the muscles, if anything he liked them but he just wished they looked a little… different? In a weird way he always thought he wanted to have more of Mirko’s build rather than All Might’s…

There’s nothing wrong with wanting that, right? Even if I’m a boy… having legs that strong could really come in handy… 

He didn’t know when or why imagining himself as looking like All Might had become a negative thing… He brushed it off as just him having now met the man himself and feeling a bit weird about it though…

 

 

Paying attention in class was harder than she would have thought… She felt so self conscious… A few of the girls had complimented her on how she looked in the uniform but otherwise she was just treated the same as normal. So she didn’t really get where this nervousness was coming from… She kept fiddling with her skirt, kept getting distracted by all of these weird feelings…

She was certainly relieved when combat practice arrived that day, something she could really throw herself into and forget all about these weird feelings in her chest for at least a little bit… Without a costume that would fit her though she had to just wear her gym uniform, which meant she had to be extra careful without her arm and leg braces. Without that added support she wasn’t sure she should try going much over 20% just to be safe. Unfortunately for her Kacchan had been used to sparring against her when she was at least at 35%...

“Come on you damn nerd! What the hell is going on?!” the blonde yelled aggressively while bombarding the area in a huge spread of rapid fire blasts, “Why are you so damn slow today?!”

I need to gain some distance, try to back off and get him with hit and run attacks maybe! Unfortunately the blonde boy wasn’t giving her an inch, he blasted himself right up to her, grabbing her by the arm and flinging her onto the ground with a pained yell.

“You really rely that much on your damn costume?!” apparently that had really gotten under Kacchan’s nerves… 

She was still on the ground when his palm was right in her face, blasting her at point blank with enough force to launch himself back up into the air. 

 

 

“Normally they’re pretty evenly matched… but Midoriya’s getting thrashed in there” Kirishima sighed

“Would it kill him to give her a little time to adapt? She’s definitely not used to fighting in that body!” Ashido pouted

“You say that as if Bakugo has ever given Midoriya a chance to adapt to anything, ribbit” Tsu looked over at Uraraka and Iida, “Maybe she should have gone against someone else”

“She was the one who chose to go against him” Iida flatly explained, “Still… it is rather strange seeing Midoriya lagging this far behind…”

 

 

Come on get it together! Even if this is just practice… I need to try and use as much power as I can manage! The electricity that arced around her body intensified from within the dust cloud left by her rival’s blast. I know I can push up to 30%! At least!  

“Come on Deku!! Are you really letting this stupid bullshit make you fall that far behind?! What happened to not losing to me anymore?!” he aggressively taunted while holding a blast ready for the instant she left the dust cloud

She wasn’t even sure how it happened, whether it was because she got too worked up or because she wasn’t used to channeling her quirk in this body, but she flew forward out of the dust far faster than she had intended! Her kick came crashing down on Kacchan’s gauntlet, completely shattering it.

He fired a blast at her point blank again but with Air Force she flung herself out of range faster than he could fire. Dozens of dark tendrils shot out of her arms, grabbing the buildings as she flew back before firing her towards him like a slingshot. In retrospect she was glad he managed to fly out of the way as she had kicked into the ground so hard and fast that she skidded all the way to the other side of the training ground…

This energy… no there’s no way! My body should be broken and mangled!! She looked at her arms in disbelief, the blonde landing just behind her with a deep and furious scowl on his face.

“What the hell was that? What percent were you at?” he scoffed through gritted teeth, clearly ready to keep the fight going but she was far too distracted in her mind

Is that what the quirk did to me? I don’t know why it would need to make  me a girl for it but did it give me a body better suited for handling my power?!

“Hey! Answer me you damn nerd!!” his shout finally got her attention, she looked back at him with wide eyes

“F-fifty percent… I was at fifty percent without my costume!” If I had my leg and arm braces I could probably handle at least 60%! Maybe 65%!

“I don’t care what stupid percent you can go up to now, you still aren’t going to beat me!!” Kacchan assumed his fighting stance again, Deku quickly following suit

“Right! I won’t let you beat me either! Full Cowling: 50%!!” the electricity surged around her body again as the spar continued…

 

 

Deku flopped onto the ground back in the waiting area as the rest of the class had their matches, she had more than a few burns and wounds… Ultimately while her power and speed had outclassed her rival, she wasn’t exactly the most adept at fighting at these specific levels nor in this body yet, and so she made more than a few mistakes, ending their battle in a tie. 

She was pretty quickly swarmed by her classmates though, most of whom were looking at her in amazement.

“Holy crap dude! You were so fast out there!” the red haired boy grinned with his sharp jagged teeth, patting her on the shoulder

“I don’t think I’ve seen you move that fast since…” she knew exactly what Uraraka was thinking of, since her fight against Overhaul

“Y-yeah… for some reason I can go up to 50% of my power now…” she sat up and grinned at her classmates, “Before yesterday the best I had, even with my braces was about 35%!”

“What caused such a massive jump in power?” Ingenium sat beside her, “Is it… what happened to your body?”

“I think so… I don’t really get why but my body feels lighter and stronger than before” she looked down at her scarred hand, clenching her fist a few times and letting some of her power flow into it, “It feels like… I don’t know”

While she didn’t want to say it aloud she knew the word she was looking for… it felt like it was right … though she wasn’t certain what the implications of that were…

“You were smiling differently than you normally do too… it looked more genuine” Uraraka pointed out before immediately getting a bit of a blush herself

“R-really?” she looked wide eyed at the girl, a bit confused by the implication

“I noticed the same…” Todoroki agreed, looking her calmly in the eyes, “You looked more confident, a lot less nervous than normal”

She hummed and looked back down at her fist, it was so weird… she felt as if some massive unknown weight had been lifted off of her chest, a weight that she didn’t even know was there… She almost felt like she was free. But yet again she chose to simply ignore the implications of that revelation… it’s just temporary… I’ll be back to normal soon…

 

 

Unfortunately for her she wasn’t really able to ignore all those feelings forever, as just three days later a familiar face had showed up along side Aizawa that morning. As soon as the elderly woman entered the classroom she couldn’t help but feel a little mournful, her time was coming to end before she’d have to go back to normal body. Suddenly she couldn’t help but wish she had done more with her time, she had spent all of her free time in this body locked away in her room, trying and failing to ignore all of her feelings…

“Before we get class started, we have a guest…” the exhausted teacher lazily motioned for the elder before he went and sat down behind his desk, assumedly taking a nap

“Oh! There you are” the elderly woman noticed her immediately, her classmates slowly looking at her now instead of this visitor

“H-hello… uh… s-so do you know what happened to me?” she muttered out in her usual weak whimpering tone

“Of course I do dearie, it was the effect of my quirk after all” the old lady laughed a bit, a few of her classmates looking shocked

“But I thought Midoriya saved you?” Todoroki looked and sounded angry for this perceived offense

“Hm? Well that’s actually what I came here to clear up… in all my years I’ve never seen someone faint after being affected by my power” her smile felt very genuine, like the kind of a smile you’d see from a sweet grandmother, “Then again, usually the people I use it on only have a few very minor changes”

Deku wanted to ask what her quirk was but for some reason she couldn’t get a single word out, she just stared at this woman in awe while her brain ran double time to try and figure it out.

“What exactly is your quirk ma’am?” Iida thankfully asked right after

“It’s called ‘Blessing’, it essentially changes your body to give you exactly what you need” the elder laughed quietly, “Of course that means it has a variety of possible effects, from healing old wounds and scars to appearance changes that make you more comfortable in your own skin, whatever it does give you though is what it’s determined to be the single most important change you need and it only works once per person”

It gave me… what I need?

“But wait that doesn’t make sense! Midoriya still has all of her messed up scars!” Kaminari was dumb enough to say what everyone was thinking

“Well, apparently this was more important than healing those scars, at least to her” her panic only amplified as now that the elder mentioned her again and everyone was looking right at her

Why did she have to show up to class to say all of this?! She was definitely burning now, more so than ever before, and if her classmates or Aizawa or the old lady kept talking she didn’t hear a word over her own thoughts.

“If it gives you what you need then how exactly does it determine that? It’s clearly not based on physical health and wellbeing because my scars would take precedence there so is it more focused on the emotional aspect of things? Did it judge that due to my lack of confidence and disdain for my looks that this was the only way to make my appearance salvageable without creating an entirely new body? Is that also why I keep getting all of those weird feelings? Because this Blessing deemed this was for the best so it’s like my body is trying to convince me that this is fine? Though I guess it all depends on how it works, maybe it-”

“‘Disdain for your looks’?” Momo’s concerned voice drew her out of her ramble with a soft ‘eep!’

“Uhh… u-uhhh… I-I uh… ignore that!!” she squeaked out

“The only way to make your appearance ‘salvageable’? What are you talking about Deku?” Uraraka sounded even more worried

“I-It’s nothing!!!” she nearly shouted

“I believe I can take it from here, thank you very much for your time” Aizawa suddenly drew the class’ attention

“Oh it was my pleasure! My apologies for not sticking around to explain this to you days ago but I had to make it to the shop before the sale ended” the old woman left with a wave after destroying what little dignity Deku thought he had

He, she? He… She … Her head definitely started to hurt now…

“Full disclosure she had already told me all about how her quirk works, I deemed that it was more logical to have her explain it to all of you rather than trying to have Midoriya explain it herself later” Eraser had an almost intense look about him, “To be honest I sort of suspected this was the case already, but your muttering really just confirmed it to me… Midoriya?”

She looked up at him with very confused wide eyes

“You wouldn’t have wanted to change back, even if she could do it, right?” he asked so plainly, as if it wasn’t weird at all

If she was able to change me back I would have done it without hesitation… I don’t deserve to feel comfortable in my body, I don’t, I’m just worthless, pathetic, useless Deku

“...Problem Child, everyone deserves to be comfortable in their own skin” she snapped her eyes back up to look at him and paled

“I-I… s-said that out loud didn’t I?” no one had to answer, the concerned looks from the majority of her classmates made it obvious, she looked down at her desk and slid down in her seat to try and hide away, “I really need to stop doing that…”

“I still don’t really get it” Kirishima mumbled, the teacher looked like he was ready to say something when…

“It means that Deku’s a girl you stupid hair moron!” Bakugo suddenly shouted

“You’re like, the last person I would have expected that outburst from” Jiro said what everyone else was thinking

“It is rather surprisingly caring of you” Tokoyami nodded

“Pfft, I don’t give a fuck about Deku’s gender, I only care that she’s not going to beat me” the aggressive boy crossed his arms tight and fumed in his seat, before muttering, “She’s been a girl since we were kids, she’s just too stupid to remember”

“Wh-what? I think I would remember something like that!”

“You were like that in preschool you moron! always showing up wearin stupid girl clothes and all that bullshit” he huffed, he sounded surprisingly soft spoken though, “Then you got in trouble with the school for it or some shit and never brought it up again”

“That didn’t happen did… it…” she looked down, brow furrowed

She could remember crying, her mom putting away all of her clothes in a big box… She was so sad, so was her mom… Why were they sad again? Oh… Why didn’t mom ever bring it up again…

“It… th-that did happen…” she looked far more surprised about it than anyone else, “I completely forgot…”

“Most likely you repressed it” Aizawa gave her a stern look, though it didn’t intimidate her all that much, she almost felt like the look was more to show her how serious he was with his next question, “So, to ask you more plainly, Midoriya, so I can make sure this is all clear… Are you a girl?”

Instinctively she wanted to say no, that it was bad enough being quirkless, that she didn’t need to be even more discriminated against, she didn’t want to give people another reason to hate her, another thing that made her different… But, she wasn’t quirkless anymore… that had changed, so why couldn’t this?

“Y-yeah… I-I am…” she said it so quietly, if the room wasn’t completely silent no one would have heard it

“Very well then” Eraser looked out over the class, his scarf raising and his eyes flashing red, “I expect that from now on there won’t be any issues with that, understood? Midoriya is a girl, end of discussion”

“Yes, sensei!” various voices spoke in unison but Deku was still much too stunned by this world shattering realization

The moment Eraser blinked though over half the class swarmed around Midoriya’s seat, giving her various affirmations and shows of support. She was following along and paying attention so it was honestly remarkable that she wasn’t crying like she usually did when people were nice to her.

“I expect that if anyone gives you trouble over it that you’ll bring it to my attention immediately” he sternly stated

She sheepishly nodded a few times rapidly, an even more genuine smile on her face

“Anyone gives you shit bout that dumb crap you should just let me know! They’ll make good target practice!” Bakugo had his normal sadistic smirk on his face

“K-Kacchan…” and of course, now the waterworks started, nearly washing away the entire class with her ocean of happy tears…

Notes:

Idk if I'll write more stuff in MHA or not, it literally just depends on if it inspires me. Though I do definitely have another trans-fem Deku story idea that I could tinker around with if people would like to see it.
