    Summary

    It is only after Tenya asks him, “Are you going to be able to stand up in the shower?” that Izuku realizes that the answer to that question is, likely, no.

    This is also when he starts crying.

    Izuku is tired and hurt and very used to being alone.

    Izuku also has friends who love him very, very much.

    Summary

    Izuku knows he will burn fast, but he wants desperately to burn brightly.
    To give something to the world before he runs out of fuel.

    But some dreams should stay dreams, and Izuku really should have learned to be more careful with his heart.

    (A notebook can be a damnable thing, I suppose. And traitor is an ugly, ugly word.)
