    Summary

    "Philip's mindset was flawed even in his awakening, however. He still had distrust in the back of his mind."

    When left vulnerable and alone, even the strongest can collapse. Philip, on the other hand, is very well aware that he does not qualify for that title. Time and time again, he chose to flee, abandoning those he cared for and leaving them to die, despite his best efforts. And yet, all the same, he carried with him the remnants of their trust.

    Just once, he wants to live up to that trust, to be worthy of all the things he had been given. Desperately, he wants to grow.

    When his pain and despair are at their peak, and when the voice only he could hear was at her loudest, Philip chooses to open his eyes and uncover his ears.

    So long as he can stand up straight, he can change even the smallest of things- even if he burns himself to ash in the process.

    Summary

    For three days straight days, blinding light as bright as the sun shone from the centre of District 12's nest. For three days straight, those in the City watched and waited. This is the reactions of a select, familiar few.

    Summary

    If there was one thing most people could agree on, it's that CEOs were evil. And CEO's of major corporations? They're the closest thing the world's ever going to get to absolute evil. Even the most humane of them have a list of deceased in their names that exceed most war memorials, and the most depraved of them lost track after they entered the tens of millions. If there's one thing you can rely on a corporation head to be, it's cunning, ruthless, and depraved beyond belief.

    Ichiban Kasuga was (reportedly) none of these things. Ichiban Kasuga, from what the few people that have been able to prove their interactions with him have to say, have all claimed that he's a mildly dimwitted man prone to acts of obscene charity, that is always willing to drop whatever he's doing to help a complete stranger out.

    Not even the most gullible person on the planet would believe such an obvious fantasy.

    Summary

    Nobody is exactly sure where this new group of heroes came from. As far as the public was concerned, they had just appeared one day out of thin air. Most people immediately wrote them off. After all, a group of wannabe pros getting cheap hero licenses and trying to make it big isn't exactly an uncommon slight in the industry. They would probably crash and burn by the end of the week, most people said with a scoff.

    By the end of the week they already have made the national news four times now. Once for managing to build an entire agency within a week, once for taking down an A-Class pro known for trading blows with All Might, once for making the world record for lowest recorded fine for illegal quirk usage, and once for breaking the world record for youngest licensed pro hero to make the top 25 charts. Most people now insist that they always knew they were up and coming stars and they were rooting for them since the beginning.

    Most people are already talking about how they're already well on their way to replacing All Might as the new pillar of peace. Too bad nobody told any of them that they were supposed to be role models.

    Summary

    I stared at the reflection in the mirror.

    The woman in the mirror was of decent height. Easily five-ten. Long black hair fell past her hips in slow waves. Sharp purple eyes, pupils stark white, stared back at me. Toned muscle, definition running everywhere – abs, shoulders, biceps. Every part of her body. And tattoos flowed through it all.

    Not even remotely a man. I stared a second longer.

    I made a face. She did the same.

    “Fuck,” we both said.

    OR

    I transmigrate into the City as a Venerable Sister of the Middle. I decide not to kill anyone over stupid shit.

    This confuses everyone.
