I̶n̶s̶i̶d̶e̶ ̶a̶ ̶h̶o̶u̶s̶e̶
Inside, there is a child on the floor. This child was Yoshiki Hayashi, four years old. Hair as brown as brown nearing his eyes and pupils as black as the color black. He was playing around with toys in the living room, it is a plastic figuring of what seemed to look like modern heroes. Most of these figures were downed, some missing a few limbs encircling a figure with blond hair in the middle. This figure was seen raising his arm up, with a savage smile that looked scarier than a villain's. This was All Might, I think.
There was a rattle in the door which made Yoshiki's ears twitch. He strained his hearing to listen to the footsteps without looking up from his toys. It was a distinct footstep that only cheap shoes could produce, it was his parents alright. With this discovery, he continued playing until the footsteps neared him.
He was suddenly hoisted up in the air with a pair of arms.
"Are ya winning, son?" his head was ruffled with his Father's own face being rubbed on it as a show of affection. His Mother aww'ed at the sight and snatched Yoshiki from his Father.
"That's enough, it's my turn." saying so, his Mother snuggled into him, pulling him close until he could barely breathe.
"-om, Mom, I can't breathe, I can't breathe..." thankfully he was let go but not before having his already messy hair ruffled. After he took a breath, he glanced at his parents. They seemed much more insufferable today. They looked tense, as if walking on eggshells. "Is something wrong, Ma, Pa?"
His parents shared a look and hesitation flashed on their faces. Today was supposed to be Izuku's Quirk evaluation, yes, a kid with a messy hair, Fatherless... or at least they say he's working abroad, I doubt it. He was Yoshiki's childhood friend, he met Izuku at his own birthday, on the hands of Inko Midoriya, his Mother's ex-classmate and 'bestie' so it was no surprise that they quickly became friends too. There was another blonde dude, but he's rather... something. Something happened, but he didn't know what. He could only guess based on their appearance.
"What Quirk did Izuku get?!" he kept his tone curious, a curiosity only a child at the age of 4 living in a world with superpowers can have.
At his question, both of his parent flinched. His Mother's voice sounded...sad. He was immediately hugged by his own Mother. "Oh, baby!" she was crying.
"Ma? What's wrong, why Mama crying?" this only seemed to make her cry harder. He let her sob on his shoulder like that until it was drenched with tears. A moment later, his Father gathered himself and muttered in a low voice. "Quirkless, son. He was... Quirkless, unfortunately."
"Quirkless..? That's... that's so cool! Like Ma and Pa?!" his Father seemed taken aback at his attitude until they heard his Mother let out a snicker. Soon it turned out into a full blown laughter which was joined by his Father. By this time, his Father was already sitting by the floor close to them. He can see his Mother wiping her tears but it seemed like she was smiling now.
"Yes, baby. It was cool wasn't it?" Yoshiki just responded with a nod and an excited smile. Seeing this, his Mother just ruffled his hair. "Although Izuku doesn't seem to know this, so we will go to see him so you can tell him yourself okay?" "Hmm! Will Katsuki be coming?"
Her Mother shared a glance with his Father at that. "Will he?" his Father just sheepishly glanced away. "R-Right... Of course, haha. It's not like anything bad is gonna happen, right..?" he giggled a few times but it was forced. Aiko knew what's gonna happen of course, that child is a different breed altogether. Ever since his Quirk manifested that child has been thinking he had been all over the moon, thinking he was the Chosen One. If he learned his childhood friend turned out to be a 'defect' he will surely say something unnecessarily prejudice.
Yoshiki knew nothing about it, of course. As far as he knew, Katsuki doesn't seem to mind even back when Yoshiki's Quirk was diagnosed. He was the first of the three who got a Quirk.

Doctor Hayate went out to meet the Hayashi couple along with Inko Midoriya and Mitsuki Bakugo.
"H-How was it, Doc..?" the one who asked this question was Inko who was about to pass out from the suspense. By the way they saw how Yoshiki's Quirk was checked, there doesn't seem to be anything 'special' that says he has one. It could be anything at all, of course, but the fact that his parents are Quirkless... It can be seen by the way Aiko and Hiroshi looked to be resigned and full of acceptance.
Doctor Hayate looked at each of them before starting in a hesitant voice.
"So... Yoshiki Hayashi... he has one interesting Quirk."
Hayashis who are already on the verge of tears, suddenly looked up at his words.
""Eh?""
Without pause, Inko burst into tears, instantly hugging the couple, pulling Mitsuki into it as well, who looked like she didn't have a choice but has the faintest smile on her face. The first to untangle from the group was Hiroshi, who had an incredulous face. His wife not any better.
"W-Wait, did you say he has a Quirk?! My son has..?" his voice was raspy, as if he was about to cry. Hoping that this wasn't a dream. At this, Doctor Hayate nodded his head and removed his glasses as he wiped it down.
"Ahem, yes, your son does have... it is an incredible Quirk."
"R-Really..?" Hiroshi asked.
"Yes." says Doctor Hayate. "His perception is above average, his senses are heightened, perhaps an increased adaptation as well."
While he was talking, everyone seemed to stop breathing waiting for him to continue.
"His Quirk is... well, 'Human'." he says as he wore his glasses once again, catching the light.
""""Eh?""""
"Uhm, was it not to your liking..? I have more, like Homo-sapiens-sapiens-sapiens? Perhaps that was bad either? Uhm, what about uh.." he seemed to continue rumbling on and on, saying unhinged things like 'Mahoraga' or 'Darwin'.
"Stop, stop, stop. That's it? He is... what, human? No shit, everyone is, you... you!" Aiko was about to launch herself at this Doctor in anger. Was he joking? Is he making fun of Quirkless people, is that it?
Doctor Hayate who also seemed to understand this immediately waved his hands. "No! I-I mean, it's true! He really has one!"
Thankfully, nothing serious happened and they were out later on. Yoshiki was smiling happily. As they approached a vehicle, Aiko looked behind and saw Doctor Hayate at the window smiling down at them waving. She flipped him off and turned around.

By the time they realized it, they were already at Bakugo's Residence. They contacted them ahead of time so Katsuki also knew what's up. Seeing Katsuki, Yoshiki ran up to him and bumped fist with him.
"Katsuki!" "Yo, extra." his head was immediately slapped by Mitsuki the moment he said it.
"You hag! That hurts!" "Who're you calling a 'hag' you brat?!" seeing Katsuki having a heated argument with his Mom made Yoshiki laugh. That seemed like the bad choice.
""WHAT"RE YOU LAUGHING AT??!!"" their ire instantly turned into him and he instantly hid behind his parents who were already near. "Come on, stop scaring my child, Mitsuki." Aiko said before hugging Mitsuki. "Are you guys ready to go?"
At this question, the two Bakugos just nodded, although Katsuki still has more something to say. Definitely something about 'extras' and what-nots. Probably already thinking of insulting words to say to Izuku to make him cry. Really, this child is something else.
