Ch. 1 learning to crawl
Slowly waking, I opened my eyes only to immediately close them. Who knew staring right into bright lights hurt? Turning my head, I started to take on his surroundings, ‘I’m in a hospital? What happened? Where am I?’
As I looked around, I heard someone start to approach his door and turned to face it. After a moment, a nurse walks into the room. She walks up to my bed and… walks right past me and starts to look at the monitor
‘Well that’s quite rude’. I clear my throat to get her attention… only to immediately regret it as i starts to cough. “Oh my god! You’re awake!” Says the nurse. Taking a moment to compose myself, I look up to her and say, “Astute observation, what gave it away?” while raising an eyebrow. The nurse goes red from embarrassment and mumbles something about getting a Dr. before leaving.
I sit there, cause what else can I do, and wait. After a few minutes, a doctor walks in. She has blue hair, pale skin, and strange looking eyes that look like constant spinning X’s, ‘wonder if that has to do with her quirk’ .“Hello sir, my name is Naibu Mite, I am your doctor and I have a couple questions if you don’t mind.” I was a bit confused but nodded and pretended to understand
Dr. Mite smiles before asking, “great, let’s start with your name”. ‘Name? Psh, what does she think? That I don’t reme … “ I… I can’t remember”. The doctor looks at me for a second before responding, “That’s alright, you took a pretty big hit so I don’t expect you to remember everything, how about telling me what you do remember?”. Before I could start panicking because who just forgets their name?!? I follow her instructions and try and remember anything
Slowly, two names come to me,well, a name and a half. But that’s something! The first one is Yoichi Shigaraki and the half one is just ku… ok so it’s a little less than half but I’m sure I’ll remember the rest soon, right? Opening my eyes, I turns to the Dr., “ I can remember a name and a piece of another but other than that, nothing”. Dr. Mite says nothing at first but says, “Well that’s better than nothing, mind telling me the names? Maybe we can find out who you are”. I tells her and she simply nods, “Do you think the name might be yours?”. I thinks about it before nodding, “Yeah,must be, I think that the only thing is I won’t ever forget is my name”. Dr. Mite nods before saying she has to go and leaves the man now know as Yoichi alone.

Turns out Yoichi Shigaraki doesn’t exist and i’m a “John Doe”, whatever that means, but at least I… yeah there are no positives. Hey, maybe I had a terrible credit score and now I can start again. what if I had a good credit score. Things to worry about latter I supposes.
I’m knocked out of my musings when a loud knocks sounds through the room…. ‘Oh I have to say something’, “Come in”. In walks a very tired looking detective, ’he looks like a detective’. He has dark brown hair and eyes, a coffee in his hands, and a matching trench coat and fedora. He looks up and takes a second to realize i’m there, which has been happening a lot recently, weird. The detective looking guys seems to collect his thoughts, “Hello, my name is Detective Naomasa Tsukauchi and I’m here to just take your story and to let you know that an investigation has been opened on you”.
Oh, well that’s… good?i hope i haven’t done anything illegal. But, yeah, I can learn who i am this way. “That’s great, but… how are you gonna question me if I know nothing?”. The detective just smile and says, “Don’t worry about that, I just have some questions, that’s all”. Ok, kinda suspicious but i can’t really refuse so…, “Ok, what is your name”….Really, ok, this might be a bit boring.
After about an hour of some strange questions, ‘was asking if I believed my family might really miss me necessary’. The detective finally relented and said good bye. He gave me a card so I could contact him. I don’t even have a phone? Wait, how am I gonna get money? Maybe I can get a job? But where?
————————————————————————
After being released from the hospital with a backpack with some clothes, water, and some food bars, i headed to… im still figuring that out
After a while of walking, i pass a cafe that has a ‘help wanted’ poster outside. ‘Better than nothing I suppose’. Walking in, i can immediately see that it’s got a cozy look to it with books all around and a cat lounging on top of a bookshelf. Two workers are … arguing behind the counter while some of the clients just watching. “You’re stupid”, “Yeah, well you look stupid”… quite the intense argument they are having.
And suddenly, somehow, a grandma comes running out of no where, ‘where did she come from’. And she says something that is quite interesting, “I’ve had it with you two, the instant I get even one more person, I’m getting rid of both of you”….. well, the saying IS to never look a gift horse in the mouth. “Excuse me, I’m looking for work”. Immediately both the workers and the grandma look at me. “Wait, you can’t do that, you need an interview and resume and stuff!”, I look at the worker who said that with a raised eyebrow and say, “She obviously wants you gone, hiring my on the spot would mean she can get rid of both of you immediately”. The old lady really stares at me and honestly it weirds me out but then she turns to her workers and says, “he’s got a point, out now”. Both workers stare at her in disbelief and after a second she starts to push them out.
The old lady turns back and looks at me “When can you work”, “Right now”. The grandma grins, “Good, now get back there, I gotta teach you everything real quick”. Well, at least i’ve got a job now, just need a place to stay. Didn’t the hospital say that I can stay for a bit while i get myself on my feet?
