With Confidence (Fanfic)	comment	With Confidence is a My Hero Academia Point of Divergence fic by TimelessTears. The premise is that at the beginning of the story, Midoriya Izuku is hit by a quirk that, for one day, swaps out his anxiety and empathy for untold levels of confidence. When he comes down from the resulting boost the next day with the realization that he just forced his homeroom into fearful submission, successfully blackmailed his middle school's faculty, and told off a pro hero on live television for failing at his job, he realizes a few things: he could be far more ruthless and blunt than he ever thought possible; the horror of his own behavior is mitigated by a not insignificant level of satisfaction; and, if his mom's oddly feral approval and the praise of his childhood hero is of any indication, working to one day truly become as self-confident as he was under that quirk's influence can only be a good thing.

Unlike canon, the other UA teachers don't know Toshinori Yagi is All Might either. To a smaller degree, his name is this to Izuku, however unlike canon, it's because Yagi honestly thought he had told Izuku. He's contrite when he finds out otherwise.

It takes Toshinori easily beating Kan in an arm wrestling match and lecturing them about how the boy is obviously both strong and brave to make them realize they don't have to wrap him up in bubblewrap to protect him.

All Might does some research and the part of him that was once Quirkless flares up at the indignation of Quirkless people not being treated as people and wants Izuku to be able to become the first Quirkless hero to prove all the bigots wrong.

Izuku notes the "late bloomer" excuse for having One For All wouldn't work because his father would instantly have a powerpoint presentation ready pointing out all the reasons why Izuku couldn't spontaneously have a Super-Strength Quirk. When Mitsuki tells Katsuki how ruthless Inko was to anyone foolish enough to bully or harass others in their vicinity, he immediately draws the connection to Izuku. When Inko smiles during their meeting, Principal Akashi notes that she and her son have the same eyes and the same smile.

He remains confident independently of the quirk long after it wore off with some nudging from Inko.

Those who thought he might go back to normal after that one off day are horrified after he destroys another kid's future for taunting him with a young girl's suicide. One outright states he just prays Izuku ignores him so long as he leaves the boy alone. It's later revealed that Izuku's mother Midoriya Inko was similarly feared in her youth for being a Bully Hunter who bore a no-nonsense attitude towards bullies and would go after those who tormented other students the moment she heard of it. Among the students she helped was Bakugo's mother Mitsuki. The reason Inko became that way is because her younger brother was constantly bullied at school for having a dangerous Quirk and his parents willingly turned a blind eye to it, leading to his early suicide, and she felt she had to make up for it or else she could never face her brother again.

In other words, he did absolutely nothing to sell the idea that it was a good alternative, despite his supposed respect for the work they did. Death Arms' attempts to defend himself from Izuku saying he did nothing to help with the sludge villain just makes him look worse. He first tries claiming that hostage situations are delicate, and while that's technically correct, as Izuku points out, the Sludge Villain was suffocating Katsuki, so it was a murder attempt, and Death Arms looks incompetent for not knowing the difference. He then tries to claim that his quirk was a bad matchup and that it was better to wait for backup, but that just results in Izuku telling the public that that means that if they are in danger and Death Arms shows up, there's a good chance he won't do his job, further damaging Death Arms' reputation.

When Izuku makes clear that he knows about the QPA and has proof of their many, many violations, they're left with Damocles' sword dangling over their collective heads. Death Arms could have avoided blowback for his inaction during the Sludge Villain incident, but he decided to confront Izuku over him getting involved. This results in Izuku pointing out his failures on live camera and Death Arms making himself look worse. As one commentator points out, no one would have noticed Death Arms' screw-ups had he just left Izuku alone. Katsuki's runs out once his parents learn about his bullying and they tell Inko about it.

Katsuki sullenly admits that no, he would have continued harassing him because he disliked the idea of Izuku 'looking down' on him. She gets another one against him in the same conversation when she admits that she honestly didn't believe in her son:

With Confidence (Fanfic) / int_8d0785d5	comment	Didn't Think This Through: The teachers at Aldera did their best to make sure that Bakugou got into a good hero school so he'd make the school look good, going so far as to tamper with the grades of other students to make him look better by comparison. Besides the fact that literally no one pays attention to what middle schools heroes went to before getting into hero schools, as Izuku points out to the principal, the It's All About Me attitude that he's gotten as a result of their favoritism means that he's unlikely to give them any credit, and that's assuming that the Sucky School hasn't been condemned or that any of the complicit teachers and staff are even still there to benefit from it somehow. Bakugou watched Izuku blackmail his teacher with a recording of said teacher breaking student-teacher confidentiality. He realizes too late what a horrible idea it was to try and confront Izuku anyway when Izuku uses the same tactic on him to record Bakugou attempting to suicide bait him. If Izuku sends the recording to anyone or posted it online, Bakugou can kiss his future goodbye. One of Izuku's classmates, Hada Shiro, is a double example. On the one hand, Hada really should not have been posting incredibly quirkist posts online, particularly if he wanted to be a hero, and shouldn't have been surprised about Izuku gathering the information and sharing it with potential Hero schools. On the other, the way Izuku handled it basically destroyed any chance of the kid getting into normal high schools. Nedzu has to pull some strings to get the kid into a high school that specializes in cases like his so that Hada won't be forced into villainy thanks to a non-existent school future. When All Might brings up his plan for Izuku to clean up Dagobah Beach, Izuku promptly asks about protective gear, citing the sharp rusty metal everywhere, a nearby biohazard bag, and the guarantee that there's used needles buried in the sand. Furthermore, the place is such a maze of trash and other things that it's pretty much the perfect location for hiding bodies. All Might promises to get Izuku some protective gear and talk to his police contacts before they do anything. This in itself leads to a situation that was in canon - All Might being a teacher. All Might realizes this trope is in effect, that he didn't think through all the little details regarding teaching people, and talks with Nezu about it. Instead of being a Heroics Teacher, he's a teacher's aid- able to provide help and expertise, but not out-and-out responsible for the class.

They promptly issue Hada pre-rejection letters, destroying his future. The next time he sees Izuku, Hada instantly knows it was Izuku's doing, why he did it, and stops showing up to Aldera soon after. The incident with Hada Shiro above gets Izuku chewed out by Nezu, who points out that Izuku's actions in completely destroying Hada's future would have resulted in a student becoming a supervillain out of desperation. Inko's parents constantly treated their younger son like a disappointment while favoring their more successful daughter and ignored his bullying problems at school. When their son commits suicide at a young age, they treat his death as if he's just a departing guest. Inko is furious with their apathy and yells at them for it, with their relationship being incredibly strained afterward. Hisashi's parents were emotionally abusive to him, arguing in front of him constantly while yelling at him whenever he sided with either one of them. By the time their divorce was finalized, they decided to straight-up abandon him for petty reasons, all without an inch of remorse. They end up being ordered by the court to continue paying for Hisashi's living expenses, having pissed off the judge presiding over their case with their atrocious behavior.

They are only willing to act when Izuku makes clear that he knows just how illegal their actions are and that he can prove they effectively signed off on his abuse. Death Arms did absolutely nothing during the Sludge Villain incident. The other heroes were at least helping out in some way but Death Arms just stood by. When he's called out for it by Izuku and makes himself look even worse, his reputation takes a bad hit. Inko was well aware that her son was being bullied but felt as though her hands were tied — especially since Izuku refused to tell her about what was going on, and the school actively stonewalled her whenever she tried to get answers. Mitsuki and Masaru get their son into therapy after his encounter with the Sludge Villain, along with addressing the matter of how he bullied Izuku for years. In Inko's youth, none of the staff at her school interfere when her brother is bullied by classmates for having a dangerous quirk, contributing to his suicide. A huge reason behind Inko's rise as a Bully Hunter is to protect the students from being bullied when the adults can't or refuse to act.

With Confidence (Fanfic) / int_b11ac9f5	comment	Abusive Parents: Two examples. Hisashi's parents were of the emotional variety. They secretly resented being stuck with each other and this boiled over when Hisashi turned thirteen. When they weren't yelling at each other, they would yell at Hisashi for siding with either one of them. Once they finalized their divorce, both of them were willing to abandon Hisashi for petty reasons. The only reason why they were still providing for him is because the judge ordered them to in disgust towards their treatment of their son. Inko's parents were also emotionally abusive. They blatantly favored Inko over her younger brother and whenever they do acknowledge him, it's to criticize him for not being like his sister. They also never bothered to check if he was being bullied at school or not. When he eventually commits suicide to escape his misery, Inko's parents treat his death as if he was just a guest. Their actions anger Inko so much that she yells at them, and her relationship with her parents is incredibly strained afterward.

With Confidence (Fanfic) / int_d397657d	comment	Hoist by His Own Petard: Iwamoto encouraged his students' cruelty by outing Izuku as Quirkless, casually commenting on his grades, and turning a blind eye to how they treated him. As a result, his students became so confident and comfortable with bullying that they thought nothing of recording it — so when Iwamoto reveals Midoriya's plans for the future, Izuku is easily able to retrieve evidence of the breach. Izuku's classmates all agree that to be a successful hero, they must have a strong quirk, an interesting personality, be good-looking, and/or have a unique costume. Izuku then turns this around on them by pointing out none of them meet the criteria they say they need to be a successful hero. For example, the kid who wants to be a hero but whose quirk is "I can pop my eyeballs out." Along similar lines to Iwamoto, Hada Shiro's online activity holds plenty of proof of their misdeeds, ensuring that none of the Hero schools want to even touch him.

With Confidence (Fanfic) / int_d39e327f	comment	What the Hell, Hero?: Izuku lays into All Might for his tone-deaf words to him since Quirkless people face a lot of discrimination and at the very least, he should have worded his opinion on how Quirkless shouldn't be heroes to give them some sort of hope. All Might takes it to heart. Izuku also lays into Death Arms for his inaction in saving Bakugou. Izuku mentions that all the other heroes present were at least doing something, but Death Arms just stood there doing nothing. Since this was caught on camera, Death Arms' reputation instantly plummets. Izuku calls Iida out for accusing him of trying to sabotage another examinee when there is no proof of such a thing. He didn't even have cause to be suspicious, all Izuku did was glance at someone else which could have meant any number of innocent things. Izuku himself ends up being on the receiving end when Nedzu admonishes him for getting Hada rejected from every single heroes school as revenge for Hada's bullying. Nedzu explains that by destroying Hada's future, Izuku could have created a potential villain, had Nedzu not stepped in.

In a world where the usefulness of one's quirk determines one's place in society, having a useless quirk can lead to bullying and even social ostracism all the way to adulthood, with disastrous consequences. Izuku's part of Breaking Speech is him viciously and meticulously crushing his classmates' egotism by pointing out that their quirks are useless for heroing, and that they don't have any ground to think themselves superior to him just because they can pop out their eyes or make fingers grow longer. Mitsuki's Quirk is that she sweats glycerin. As in lotion. If it wasn't for the fact that she was unusually sweaty and her parents had her checked, they would have thought she was Quirkless. Mitsuki was viciously bullied for that growing up.

And while she'll let his girlfriend decide what to do with one of them, she's keeping the other so he'll always have a gap in his mouth reminding him how to act. Because if she catches him again, she's ripping out all of his teeth, one at a time.

With Confidence (Fanfic) / int_e7f67516	comment	Point of Divergence: The premise of this fic is that Midoriya Izuku randomly encounters a man whose Quirk accidentally boosts his confidence, encouraging him to stand up to his bullies and tear them down instead. Things progress rapidly from there. Death Arms managed to escape criticism for his inaction during the Sludge Villain incident in canon. Here, Izuku criticizes him when Death Arms tries to lecture him, causing bystanders and news crews to begin recording Death Arms making an utter ass of himself and causing his reputation to plummet as he is mocked and criticised by online commentators and other heroes. After seeing their son nearly murdered on live TV and learning about his relationship with Izuku, Mitsuki and Masaru take a more active role in Katsuki's life and make him attend therapy. While training Izuku, All Might realises he isn't that good of a teacher. After discussing it with Nedzu, they change his planned position at UA from teacher to teaching assistant. With that change, there's also no longer any reason to inform the rest of the staff about All Might's condition and they are told that the new staff member is just Toshinori Yagi.

Due to this, they're incredibly horrified upon learning that Katsuki is a bully, with the whole family entering therapy as a result. Inko had a younger brother who died of suicide when he was ten because of the bullying he received, and to make matters worse, their parents showed blatant favouritism to her and never really helped him. As a result, she abandons her family name at the first chance she gets and becomes the Bully Hunter that Mitsuki knew her as. Hisashi's parents went through a bitter divorce when he was fifteen. That's already traumatic for a minor, but to make matters worse, neither of them wanted custody over him after the divorce.
