Hiccup: I did it!!
Eddie: Did the blackmailing work?
Hiccup: …
Hiccup: Who are you?
Eddie: Eddie Brock, an investigative reporter, 36 years old making me the only adult in this chat.
Eddie: And this stupid phone popped out of thin air after the craziest experience in my life yesterday.
Marinette is online
Marinette: …
Marinette: a new person, great
Marinette: Anyway I just told my mom about the miraculous
Marinette: The only reason she hasn’t broken Master Fu’s limbs is because he doesn’t remember anything.
Eddie: Assuming Fu is the old guardian, then your mother has shown mercy.
Hiccup: wait why did you tell her? Didn’t you say it was risky?
Marinette: …Hiccup scroll up and read the messages that you missed
Midoriya is online
Midoriya: …Guess who had just figured out that his father is a psycopath
Marinette: Izuku WTF
Eddie: Cool, I just figured out that the someone is doing experiments on people with aliens.
Marinette: Again WTF
Midoriya: Cool a new person and an adult
Midoriya: Question what to do when you find out that your father is a psycopath with a very twisted view of love who also intentionally let you suffer at the hands of society just so he can come at the moment you break and ‘save’ you
Midoriya: with the final goal of lockingyou up in a gilded cage where he believes you will be completely safe isolated from everyone beside him
Marinette: …
Hiccup: ...
Eddie: …
Midoriya: so?
Eddie: call CPS? Call the police?
Midoriya: I already told the number one hero in the country, and I am pretty sure that my father is a supervillain after what he did to mom
Marinette: Hero? You have heroes there too?
Midoriya: oh I haven’t told you, in my world 80% of the population is born with a superpower called a quirk
Midoriya: it happened 200+ years ago, and since then heroes and villains became a real thing in our world
Midoriya: The number one hero is my Mentor as I am training for the entrance exam of UA, the best hero school in the country
Eddie: …so reporting your father is useless, so you can only get as far away from him as you can
Hiccup: Kill him?
Marinette: HICCUP!!
Hiccup: What?
Marinette: you can’t just tell him to kill his father
Hiccup: Why not?
Marinette: First killing is bad
Marinette: Second Izuku might not like the idea of killing his father even though the bastard might deserve it
Marinette: Third Izuku want to be a hero and killing someone even if he deserves it will make him a criminal
Midoriya: …sadly Marinette is right
Midoriya: …anyway Mom and All Might are already working on a solution, I just wanted to vent a bit
Eddie: I assume All Might is your mentor
Midoriya: Yes now tell me about the aliens I need a distraction
Eddie: ….
Eddie: I am pretty sure I am not supposed to tell what I saw to kids
Midoriya: I was born powerless in a world were powers are everything, I was bullied, abused and even told to kill myself and I was also attacked by a slime villain who wanted to take over my body and kill me, also I already said what my dad did
Marinette: I am literary fighting to keep a villain from rewriting the whole universe, I saw thousands of people die while carrying the knowledge that if I lose the fight they will be dead permanently, I also went to an alternative timeline where everyone died including me because something I did caused my partner to get Akumatized
Hiccup: my village get attacked by folks of dragons on weekly bases, and I am outcasted by the whole village for how weak, small and weird I am, I also heard many people saying that it would have been better if I just died
Eddie: …
Eddie: you kids need therapy
Hiccup: I don’t know what that is
Marinette: opening up to my emotion means telling someone about my secrets, and I only told mom yesterday
Midoriya: I might ask mom or all might about it later
Midoriya: And dragons? Hiccup?
Hiccup: Yeah, the raids are a nightmare
Marinette: we will talk about our trauma later, now Eddie tell us about the aliens
Eddie: …
Eddie: when I said I am an investigative reporter, I meant I was
Eddie: my ex is a lawyer and she worked for law firm that represented the Life Foundation
Eddie: Long story short, I took informations from one of her confidential emails and used it to question the CEO about some unethical practice of his Corporation
Eddie: both me and my ex got fired because of that
Eddie: she broke up with me, and six months later a woman approached me about human experiments that the life foundation is doing
Eddie: she broke me into their lab and I saw them experimenting on homeless people with some type of alien goo
Eddie: I saw a woman I knew and I tried breaking her free
Eddie: she died in front of my eyes
Eddie: I escaped before they can catch me and I think I caught something in the lab
Eddie: any way I just returned from a meeting with my ex, I tried to tell her about what I found
Eddie: but I lost control of my body and tried to eat live lobster and somehow ended up in its tank
Eddie: My ex new boyfriend took me to the hospital, and I had some weird stroke when I was in the MRI
Eddie: Now I am back home with a voice talking in my head which is very likely caused by an alien parasite
Midoriya: …
Hiccup: …
Marinette: … everyone in this chat is fucked up one way or another
Midoriya: true
Hiccup: What is an ‘Alien’?
Midoriya: It means a creature from space, from another planet
Marinette: The Alien what does it say?
Eddie has gone offline
Midoriya: and he is gone
Marinette: do you think something happened?
Hiccup: probably, but there is nothing we can do about it.
Midoriya: …Damn it, I hate that you are right
Marinette: we can only hope that he is alright
Marinette: And before I forgot, Izuku what the hell was that about being abused and shit
Midoriya: …
Midoriya: fuck it, I already told mom and all might, might as well tell you
Midoriya: as I said I was born quirkless, I didn’t have any kind of power and that made me a target for bullying
Midoriya: my child hood friend was the first to change his face as soon as the news came out
Midoriya: he started calling me Deku as in Dekunobu which mean useless doll
Hiccup: …I want to punch him
Midoriya: the teachers weren’t much help as they always put the blame on me calling me ‘fragile’ ‘easily hurt’ and ‘trouble maker’
Midoriya: the bullying only got worse as I grew up and some teachers even joined in
Midoriya: …I have some scars on my body from it
Midoriya: I kind of heard some people talk how that I was a burden to my mom which caused me to think that I will only be a bigger burden if I told her
Midoriya: the bullying got worse and around seven months ago, my ex-childhood friend told me to take a leap of faith from the roof and hope to get a quirk in my next life if I wanted to be a hero
Midoriya: ...I was attacked by the slime villain when I was on my home, that’s where I met All Might
Marinette: …I have this strong urge to break someone’s neck
Hiccup: …I am not one to initiate violence but I could use someone to test my inventions on
Midoriya: …trust me, All Might is already planning to hit the school district
Midoriya: what about you two? What is this about people wishing you just die, hiccup?
Hiccup: ..it isn’t as bad as your situation but I was born small which make me a ‘runt’ by Viking culture
Hiccup: adding the fact that I am weak and I always try to invent tools to kill dragons, it made me outcasted by the village
Hiccup: …but since I am the chief’s only son, I am the heir
Hiccup: so the village hope that either my dad names another person the heir or I die and leave the spot empty for someone to take
Hiccup: it doesn’t help that most my inventions ended up creating a mess or the fact that my dad shows his dissatisfaction with me publicly
Marinette: …you said you are weak, are you sick or something?
Hiccup: No
Midoriya: Then why doesn’t your dad just train you if he thinks you are weak?
Hiccup: He doesn’t have the time
Marinette: Bullshit!
Marinette: if he wanted he will easily make the time
Midoriya sent an attachment (Me_Before_training.jpg)
Midoriya sent an attachment (Me_now.jpg)
Marinette: Holly shit
Midoriya: This the result of seven months of training with my mentor
Midoriya: look at me before I started training
Midoriya: do you think I was stronger then you?
Hiccup: …No
Midoriya: If someone actually took the time to train you, then you wouldn’t be weak
Midoriya: They think you are weak and not suitable to be the chief’s heir, so why don’t they train you?
Midoriya: Because they don’t care, they mock you and outcast you to feel good about themselves, to feel that they are better then you
Marinette: Izuku can you send him your training plan?
Marinette: he can use it
Hiccup: …
Hiccup: I will appreciate it if you do
Midoriya: sure, let me just talk to All Might, a big part of my training was cleaning a beach filled with trash, so I will need to replace that part.
Hiccup: Thanks
<><><>
Hiccup read the messages for the third time, but he still couldn’t find any fault in his friends’ logic.
If his weakness was such a problem for his dad and the village, why hadn’t they trained him?
He knew the other teens trained regularly with their parents, yet his dad had never even tried to train him.
With a sigh, he slipped the phone into his inner pocket and began making his way back to the village.
So far, Snotlout hadn’t made any attempts to retaliate for yesterday’s punch. Perhaps blackmailing him was enough to keep him away.
Hiccup quietly slipped into the forge, Gobber wasn’t there thankfully. Taking out the contraption that he had hidden in the back, he started checking it out for any errors that he might have missed.
‘This will be it’ Hiccup thought as he returned it to its hiding spot and left the forge, heading straight to his home.

Overlord sent an attachment (Hisashi_Midoriya.zip 1.4Gb)
Overlord: unfortunately, it seems that Hisashi Midoriya is a fake persona.
Overlord: I am still looking for his true identity but there aren’t many leads.
Muscle-Man: Thanks, is there anything about Aldera?
Overlord: of course, there were more than enough evidence to shut it down for good.
Overlord: The entire school district had connection to the MLA.
Overlord: young Midoriya will receive his transfer papers to Somei Private Academy tomorrow.
Muscle-Man: …I should have known that you would take care of the transfer
Overlord: yes, you should have.

“Pound it” Ladybug and Chat Noir said they bumped their fists.
“Bugaboo, you seem happy.” Chat Noir point out as he leaned on his baton.
“…I might have found something that can block Hawkmoth from Akumatizing people.” Ladybug said, smiling before frowning a bit. “unfortunately, I didn’t make it, but got it by chance.”
“That’s great!” Chat Noir perked up. “did you only get one?”
“No I got two, but I gave one to someone, so I only have one left” Ladybug explained.
Chat Noir frowned. “Who did you give it to?” he asked.
Ladybug hesitated for a bit before speaking. “..I won’t lie to you, I got a tool that allows me to communicate with people from other universe, the tool also give missions with rewards.”
“…are you serious?” Chat Noir asked in disbelief.
“yeah, Tikki confirmed that it was lgit and safe.” she sighed.
“Lucky.” He mumbled.
“The mission was to tell someone about my identity, it also gave me a list of people that I can choose from.” Ladybug sighed already expecting the betrayed expression on Chat’s face.
“But…”
“I know chat, but you weren’t on the list that I was given, plus Bunnix already warned me that we can’t share our identities with each other unless she gives us the ok.” She explained, trying to make him understand.
“but why?” Chat asked. “You already told someone, so why can’t I know.”
Ladybug took a deep breath. “something I learned is when Bunnix tells us to do something, we don’t ask why and we do it.” She paused for a second. “I made a mistake, where I allowed someone to put togther my identity…it ended up with the entire Paris being destroyed.”
“…Why don’t I know about this?” Chat asked, this time with a completely different tone.
“…it happened in a different timeline, I saw myself from that timeline dead, nothing but a status.” Ladybug said, her body trembling. “it is hard to talk about, I still get nightmares about it.”
Chat’s eyes softened. “...ok, but promise me one thing, as soon as we are allowed, we will reveal our identities.”
“of course.” She didn’t even hesitate, because she wanted the reveal as much as Chat.
“Paw-some!”
She groaned.

Midoriya sent an attachment (Hiccup_Training_Plan.pdf 15Mb)
Marinette: …
Marinette: That is very detailed.
Hiccup: ...even my sleep is scheduled and the amount of food I must eat
Midoriya: yeah, if you don’t eat and sleep enough, it will affect your training
Marinette: Izuku you did all of this?
Midoriya: no my training was different, mine was heavily focused on gaining as much muscle mass as possible
Midoriya sent an attachment (Aim_to_Pass_American_Dream_Plan.pdf 48Mb)
Midoriya: This is my training plan
Hiccup: ...
Marinette: …that’s the definition of hell
Hiccup: how in Odin’s beard did you manage to follow this plan??!
Midoriya: It isn’t that bad
Marinette: ...if you think that then you are a monster
Midoriya: :(
Hiccup: let’s change the subject
Hiccup sent an attachment (The_Mangler.jpg)
Hiccup: the camera feature is amazing!!
Hiccup: this is the Mangler, a bola canon that I designed to shoot down dragons
Hiccup: I took a picture of it earlier today
Midoriya: you built it all by yourself?
Midoriya: that’s impressive
Marinette: but is it safe to use? Did you try it?
Hiccup: Yes, and it works as intended
Midoriya: do you invent a lot?
Hiccup: Yes
Midoriya: you would have loved UA’s support course, from what I researched they focus on nurturing your inventing skills and craftsmanship
Hiccup: that’s sounds wonderful
Marinette: questions, if I were to put togther a file filled with blueprints of inventions from my world and send it to you to study, would you like it?
Hiccup: ...I would love it
Midoriya: …
Midoriya: Marinette, I see what you are trying to do and I support it
Midoriya: But wouldn’t it take a long time and effort to filter all the invention that Hiccup can study and recreate? Plus, there are thousands of different ones.
Marinette: who said I will make it by myself? I will just cash in a favor
Marinette: My classmate made a fully sentient AI, and he owes me
Hiccup: what is an AI?
Midoriya: ...to put it as simple as possible, it is an algorithm that allows a computer (a tool similar to a phone) to think like a human to some degree
Hiccup: by the howl of Garm! And that doesn’t involve magic or quirks at all??!
Marinette: no, even in your own world if someone built a computer and wrote down the correct algorithm they will be able to create an AI
Hiccup: I feel like I will be surprised by something new every time we talk
Midoriya: …I think I have a solution for that
Midoriya: I think my dad had a hoard of pre-quirk movies and series stored in hard disk, I will look for it and upload it to the chat
Marinette: I will see if I can get some here too, this way hiccup can get used to modern life
Hiccup: …why do I feel like that was an insult?
Marinette: I didn’t mean it as one :p
Hiccup: how do you do that? The face?
Marinette: oh emoticons? You just put the right symbols and letters togther
Midoriya: then the rest is your imagination ;)
Hiccup: I think I get it :D
<><><>
You lied to them
Eddie almost flinched at the sudden voice, but he managed to suppress it. The last thing he needs is to arouse the police’s suspicion.
Staying silent, he slowly made his way out of the police station.
“…they finally let you out?” Anne who was waiting for him asked as he entered the car.
“Well, try telling them about the fact that Aliens caused all that mess.” He rolled his eyes.
“If I didn’t see them by my own eyes, I would have thought you went crazy.” She chuckled, as the car started moving.
“…thanks for saving me.” Eddie said after a while.
Why did you tell her that we died?
Eddie ignored them as Anne replied.
“I told them I can fight ugly…sorry for your loss.” She added giving him a sympathetic look.
“…. I will miss them.” He mumbled as he looked out the window.
He knew that he was shit at lying, and that if Anne saw his expression she would figure him out instantly.
Don’t worry Eddie. Venom purred in his mind. Nothing will separate us, you are mine.
Possessive bastard Eddie cursed in his mind just a second before he felt something vibrating from his inner pocket.
“...hm?” he made a confused sound as he reached in and took out a phone?
Didn’t I drop it when Drake’s gang were hunting us? Eddie frowned.
Yes, you dropped it in the apartment. Venom replied and Eddie felt their curiosity? Leak into his mind.
Wait, you can read my mind?? Eddie tensed.
Of course, we are one Eddie, your mind is mine too. Venom said smugly. Now, let us see what this ‘phone’ do.
Eddie sighed.
