Welcome, dear readers! My muse hit me with a crowbar after I read Boko No Hero Academia and since I did not find any stories out there where Izuku remained quirkless, I decided to write my own version. Because Izuku is full of conviction and will-power and really - even if he did not get All Mights Power, he would have probably done something about it. And Fem!Izuku, because I can relate better with women, because, well... I am one. And I'm kind of a crack-shipping addict with Fem-main-characters.

Also this is kind of a sneak-peak, I want to know what you think about a story with a revolutionary approach like this. Because - let's face it - quirkless people seem to be kinda discriminated against even in canon.

[edit] I found a pretty critical error here - I said bone, what I really meant was joint... damn.

Izuku Midoryia was four years old, tiny and adorned with a little pink bow in her hair when the doctor told her mother – speaking as if she wasn't there anymore – that she was quirkless. He explained – only to her mother – with pity in his voice, that she would never develop the moreness, because she had a joint too much and thus she would be less. And she did not understand, because why would a stupid joint dictate her future like that? Couldn't they just take one part out? And why didn't the doctor look at her anymore? Her mother was crying. Izuku frowned, because didn't she understand? Surely, she would not be quirkless– they just had to take a part of her toe out - then she would be a hero, she would be more – just like All Might.

But her mother didn't understand. And loosing a joint wasn't enough. And she wouldn't be a hero.

And she would be less.
