A Goddesses Blessing - Chapter 11
A couple weeks had passed since your ‘conversation’ with Kai and things had mostly gone back to normal. Kai was being Kai again, nothing major changed.
You say nothing major and mostly gone back to normal though because something was still going on.
Nick was stressing because you still hadn't revealed you got a quirk yet. In his mind you were most likely quirkless which terrified him. Not because you won't have a quirk, he doesn't care if you have one or not, it's how you'll get treated. He's heard stories about how differently or terribly people without quirks are treated and he absolutely does not want that to happen to his daughter.
So yeah, he's just a little worried. Just a tiny bit. Totally. He's definitely not shitting ten foot tall atomic bombs out of panic, not at all.
But you weren't really aware of Nick's feelings. They weren't your feelings after all, so how would you know how stressed he is currently? You've been living your best life playing Pokémon Ultra Sun!
It was what you were doing currently actually. You were sitting on the shabby couch in the living room while happily playing Ultra Sun when Nick scampers out from who knows where and sits down next to you. But he doesn't sit down like he normally would, not at all my good friend. He sits down like a parent ready to have ‘the talk’ with their kid after they discovered the yaoi collection that was hidden underneath a bed and contained omegaverse, office romance, opposites attract, mind reader, and enemies to lovers troupes. So you knew this was serious.
You sit up straighter and pause your game, setting the console off to the side as Nick begins to speak.
“[Name], your quirk hasn't appeared yet, right?”
Ah. So this is what the conversation is about. Your quirk hadn't really been at the top of your priority list so you had forgotten how much trouble it would be if you didn't reveal you had one. You should've probably put it higher up on your ‘to do’ list after meeting Midoriya and Bakugo/what Kai told you, but Pokémon just happened to take priority!
Or maybe it was Professor Kukui that was more important because GYATT DAMN THAT MAN WAS FINE. So was his wife! Everyday you hope they're open to a poly relationship.
Nick just gets a worried look on his face, frowning as he stares at you. You just kinda sit there while mentally drooling over Professor Kukui's wonderful ass and absolutely GORGEOUS lady that was Professor Burnet!
“Do the kids at the park bully you?”
You let out a laugh at that one. Bullying is a serious topic, yes, but a serious topic coming from Nick? The guy who cried for thirty minutes after he learned Hello Kitty was only five apples tall?
Then again he is involved in illegal activity and was a lot different before Kai came along. So maybe you should stop laughing actually.
Nick seems offended by your laugh, beginning to ramble on about how he's only trying to be a good parent and make sure his favorite kid isn't getting harassed.
“Nick, I'm not getting bullied or harassed. Everyone and their mama is absolutely crazy about me.”
“You've only been there once?”
“It only takes one meeting for people to adore me.”
Nick simply lets out a chuckle and stands up from the couch, placing a hand on top of your head and ruffling your hair.
“I'm happy to hear you're doing well. I'll schedule a doctor's appointment for you to find out if you're quirkless or not.”
Nick removes his hand from your hair and walks over to the kitchen, presumably to grab a beer or alcoholic drink of some kind, while you go back to playing Pokémon. Ten minutes later the thought suddenly dings on you.
“Nick's spending money for a doctor?”
The next day rolled around and you had officially decided today was the day your quirk made an appearance.
You would've just said your quirk already formed when Nick asked yesterday but the chapter would've been too shor- it would've been out of character! Yep! That's totally it! No breaking the fourth wall in this book!
Anyways you had just gotten up out of bed and gotten ready for the day, adorned in a cute light pink dress with a white collared shirt underneath for the day. Pink is practically your character trait at this point because your whole closet is full of pinks and whites. Maybe you'll start building up a collection of other colors someday, but for now pink it is.
Taking a deep breath, you start to decide what ability is going to be your first. This is an important moment!
But where do you even start? There's so many awesome characters in the world, how do you choose just one!?
Alright, think [Name]. Use that peanut brain of yours for once! Your quirk involves thinking, something Kai always says you lack, and fixating on the one character's abilities you want to use. So it would be most logical to use the ability of the one game or show your currently fixated on. Right?
Taking a glance over to your handheld console you realize you've been most fixated on pokemon lately. It's all you've been doing in your free time actually, which is a little sad because playing games is all you did in your old life but hey, habits are hard to break!
So it seems you'll be using the abilities of Pokémon. That makes the most sense after all!
But which Pokémon? There are way too many cool ones to those from. And how will it even work? Pokémon are able to use so many different moves depending on their types, do you just get a random movement? Some Pokémon have wings or other anatomical parts that are specific to that Pokémon. Would that mean you get wings?
Yaoi (get it? Ye-ow-e! Don’t boo me it was funny!) that sounds painful. Maybe you should avoid a Pokémon with wings or anything that would hurt. You've learned your lesson after that one time…
So maybe a fighting type? Most of the fighting types you can think of don't have anything that seems inhuman so that should mean no pain for you.
Or maybe you should use an ability that would cause you pain? It would probably be best to let Nick and Kai know about the side effects of your quirk so they're not too surprised when you use your quirk and are suddenly writhing in pain.
So that brings you back to the question which pokemon should you use the abilities of?
Now that you're not limited, you have to pick from the full 1,025 list. With so many badass ones too! Why'd you go and make this a bazillion times harder for yourself!?
“Why couldn't I have fixated on something much simpler, like Bayonetta. Her powers would be cool as shit to use!”
You mentally beat yourself up while grabbing your handheld console and sitting on your bed. Maybe you should just play Ultra Sun until you run into a Pokémon and use their abilities? Yeah, that'd be much easier. Let's go with that!
Booting up Ultra Sun and pressing start to continue your game, you begin your search for any Pokémon!
And the winner is here! Within the first five minutes of playing you've encountered….. Drum roll please!
Yeah sure just give me a min.
You still didn't answer me, who are you??
Seriously what the fuck just happened.
You had encountered and successfully caught a Morelull! What a cute little fella he was!
He did have Mushrooms growing out of his head, so that'll take care of the letting Kai and Nick know about the drawbacks. This is gonna be an interesting experience, mushrooms sprouting from your head.
Let's just get this show on the road!
Saving your game and closing your console you sit on your bed, having decided to make yourself comfortable while going through the pain. You take a deep breath and shut your eyes before beginning to focus on Morelull and only Morelull while awaiting the pain that will come.
You begin to think harder about Morelull (it might be more than your one twelfth of a brain cell can handle but you're doing your best!) when suddenly you hear something fall onto the bed.
You slowly open your eyes just to be greeted with a shiny red pokéball sitting in front of you. You stare at it for a few moments before cautiously picking it up, the pokéball being quite light in your hands.
Suddenly the pokéball opens up and in a blue light, a Morelull appears on your bed in front of you with its whimsical cry. Its black eyes stare up at yours.
“So this is how it worked?”
You mumble excitedly as you stare at the Morelull. You had been expecting to use the abilities of the Pokémon you were thinking about, not to just summon them. Maybe it's because the Pokémon world has trainers? Like that's how they use the abilities of Pokémon.
If that's the case then this just got ten times more interesting!
“It's nice to meet you Morelull. My name is [Name].”
Morelull lets out another cry as you smile at it, the Pokémon beginning to move closer to you slowly. You're letting him (at least you think it's a him, there isn't really any way to tell if it is or not) move and get used to you at his own pace. Morelull soon finds his way right next to your side. You slowly lower your hand,so you don't scare him, and begin to gently pet him before picking him up.
“I gotta go introduce you to my brother and Nick, so sorry if they frighten you. They're nice I swear! They just might seem scary.”
That's all Morelull hears before you quickly begin to rush to your living room, where Nick was watching more 90 Day Fiance, while screaming happily.
You stop right in front of the television and show him the Morelull in your hands while smiling excitedly. How could you not be smiling right now, you had a Pokémon right in your hands!
Nick's eyes widen and he sits up straighter (he was originally slouching, Nick has the posture of a shrimp). He stares at the Morelull who was pissing it's pants in fear at the sight of Nick before letting the biggest sigh of relief and shooting up off the couch to pull you up into a hug.
You quickly shoot the hand that was holding Morelull out to the side so he doesn't get squished by Nick's hug that pulls you off the ground, a happy smile enveloping your face. You don't think you've ever seen Nick this happy.
“Oh thank fuck you're not quirkless!”
Nick's yelling drowns out your question, Kai soon appearing in the living room. He walks over to the two of you before being pulled into the hug by Nick. Which he very obviously tries and wants to escape from.
“Your sister got her quirk! No clue what it is yet but I know it’s amazing!”
Nick starts to tear up while Kai stops struggling. He looks up at you, who was being held in Nick's arms, a look of something you can't quite describe on his face.
You nervously speak, curious and honestly a little frightened on how he'll react. You wait (while Nick continues to cry happily in the background) but all that comes from Kai is a simple word.
You and Kai stare at each other, the silence getting more and more pregnant. It does give birth to sound however, Nick finally letting go of you two and beginning to speak.
“This is a special occasion! Bring out the fine china! [Name], what do you want for dinner? I'll make whatever you want!”
Whoa. Nick was seriously proud of you then. He never brought out the fine china unless something, really, really, really, good happened. The last time you saw Nick use the fine china is when one of Nick's coworkers, one who he hated more than anything, ended up getting convicted to a life sentence. He made some pretty baller tacos that day too!
“(f/f)! Please and thank you!”
Nick simply smiles and nods, waltzing off to the kitchen to prepare your favorite food. Kai had walked off to grab the fine china, which were some limited edition Shrek 2 themed plates that Nick spent a week straight bidding on ebay for. It's honestly insane how much he spent on them..
Making your way to the couch while Kai brings out the Shrek 2 plates, ignoring the side eyes and stares he sends your way. You gently place Morelull on the couch and sit next to him. He makes his way to your lap with a happy, whimsical chirp while the mushrooms atop his head begin to glow.
“I should probably give you a nickname…”
You stare at the content Morelull lying on your lap. A million names rush through your head, none of them seeming to fit.
“Giggleshitter2000..no he doesn't shit nor giggle. Maybe after someone like Mirko? Nah, probably don't want to name him after someone you had gooned to in your past life.”
With a sigh you flop your head back onto the couch, giving up for now. Seriously, how hard was it to come up with names for a MUSHROOM??
“I'll just do this later. A name will probably come to me when someone comments one I like one of the comments- shit I mean in the next chapter! Fuck no next day! Yeah, that's what I meant!”
Yeah no you weren't very good at this.
It was the next day and surprise, surprise! No names had stuck to you. Probably cause it's still the same chapter.
There weren't any names but you know what you did have instead? The opportunity to piss off Bakugo even more now! Or just scare the piss outta him. The latter is going to be so much fun! When he makes you mad, or anyone makes you mad not Bakugo specific, you can just summon a Eternamax Eternatus or Giratina Origin Forme. Who wouldn't be terrified if a 100.0 meter or 6.9 meter (328 '01 " feet and 22' 08” feet) appearing in front of their eyes and under the control of a toddler?
Man the league is gonna want you so bad.
Anyways, back to the present! You were chilling at the park once more, bored and hanging upside down on a bar from the jungle gym. No dress this time! It was hella hot out so you were in shorts and a nice shirt. Something not entirely pink today!
Morelull was in his pokéball, the ball sitting in your pocket. You really just wanted to show him off, why couldn't they get here sooner!?
And it seems whatever’s above seems to answer your wishes, Bakugos form appearing in the distance!
Yeah no it wasn't Bakugo. Just some random blonde kid who didn't even go to the playground! What the hell man!?
Whatever, this just meant you had to wait longer! You'd wait as long as forever if it came to inserting yourself into the plot. Or into the narrative as Eliza Hamilton would say.
“So come at me! I don't care how long I’ll have to wait, try me!”
And as soon as you scream those words you miraculously lose your grip on the bar. You fall all the way to the ground head-first, grumbling as you do so. There's probably (actually there might be) no concussion so you'll end up being fine!
Everything will end up fine!
“[Name]..? Are you alright?”
You open your eyes and blink a couple of times, the green eyes of the main character staring straight at you slightly worried. He was just so adorable!
You quickly stand up again, dusting dirt off you as smiling at Midoriya.
Midoriya nods but it isn't the same as usual. Something seems….off. Do you notice it though? Nope! Because you're too preoccupied with yourself to pick up on others' problems. Lucky you!
“Oh yeah, I got my quirk!”
You smile brightly and fish the pokéball out of your pocket. Hehe fish. What do you call a fish with no eyes? Fshhhh! Man you guys just love my jokes.
You let out your Morelull, who had a name that shall be revealed shortly, and he immediately scampers behind you. You scoot to the side so Midoriya could see him, but he immediately dashes behind you again. You sigh and pick him up, holding him out for Midoriya to see.
“His name is Ryuk! I named him that because someone named marcillexz over on wattpad said I should and they're cool.”
Midoriya seems very confused but before he can question who the GOAT marcillexz is or what is wattpad you call back Ryuk into his pokeball.
“Your quirk is really cool! How many Pokémon can you summon at a time? How do you pick the Pokémon? Where do the pokéballs go?”
Midoriya begins to hit you with question after question, his mood now seeming to improve. But you didn't even notice he was down in the first place! You smile and nod along with each question, happy to answer them.
“I haven't tried summoning multiple Pokémon at once yet, so no clue! I just kinda think about the Pokémon and then a pokéball with them inside appears. The pokéballs can shrink to super small so they go in my pocket.”
You can practically hear the notebook appear, but it doesn't happen. You just got a kid with green hair staring excitedly at you. Looks like the nerdy part will come later.
“Having pokemon isn't the only thing i can do either.”
Midoriya looks curious on what you mean by that. You give him a mischievous smile before scanning around for anything you can use. You have a specific ability in mind that shouldn't cause too much trouble. At Least you're hoping it doesn't. Eh, what's the harm? YOLO!
You finally find what you need, an old soda can that's lying on the sidewalk. Seriously, why do people litter? It's real pretty over here, there's no need to! But that's not what you're focusing on, back to the task at hand!
You walk to the middle of the park with the can in hand. Seems a little dramatic but you're having a character moment so it's not terrible. With a certain character in mind (I'm not telling you this time, use your brain! Winner gets a kiss or whatever they want!) you grip the can tightly and a green light spills out of your fist. You quickly throw the can down
And a large tree appears! A really large tree appears. Oh shit it's still going! That's way too big to be considered a normal tree, it's on steroids!! OH FUCK ITS TOO BIG!!!!!
Wait shit- sorry now's not the time for jokes!
People begin to crowd around the park, many curious and a few beginning to call the authorities. Shit! That means heros will get here any minute! Well I mean Heros are awesome but they're gonna go “who made this tree” and you're gonna go “oh haha it was me sorry man” which is gonna be responded with “we need to get you tested where even are your parents” and one thing just leads to another until one of the heroes get his weiner bitten off by a horse at a Chili Con Carnival after eating his parents that were cooked into chili for the chili competition while his all time favorite band insults him for being a wimp!
So lets just avoid all that and get the FUCK outta here!
“So, uh, how was that? I can turn trees into trash…! Anyways let's go!”
You grab Midoriya by the hand, who was paler than a ghost because a branch nearly cut through his entire face, and prepare to book it but an absolutely jaw dropping green haired lady runs up to the two of you. She drops to her knees, yanking Midoriya towards herself in a tight hug while sobbing manically.
“Izuku! Oh thank god you’re alright!”
The two of them continue to hug and eventually it takes a while, but you realize the woman holding Midoriya is actually Inko! Its ok it took you that long, you don't really have a brain in there. It's only three facts and a peanut floating around in the emptiness is your head. It's almost as empty as your stomach! Which is saying you’re hungry. When are you not hungry?
The two were still having their little moments which makes you a little sad. it's kinda making you have a mom right now. Well you do have a mom but you never met her. Only thing you knew about her is that she was fighting overseas and could hold her liquor. It would be nice to meet her one day! Your mom in your past life didn't really care about you so it would be nice if this one did. Maybe you should see if you could write her a card? She’d probably appreciate getting something from her daughter.
Welp! You should probably go do that! And skedaddle cause we don't want the Chili Con Carnival happening, now do we? Making sure everything is in your pockets you begin to move away from the two.
“Welp! I got to go make sure my brother isn't concocting a way to create quirk-removal bullets! Hope you two have fun crying and hugging each other!”
You continue to walk backwards and away from them before turning around and running away from the playground. But something stops you from doing that. A pair of legs that you ran into face first actually. A pair of legs that belong to a certain someone that wears all black and likes cats. A certain someone that lost his best friend and got a haircut after the timeskip which a lot of people say is ugly but I think it’s cute.
“Are you alright there kid?
He stares down at you while you stare back at him.
HOLY SHIT IT'S AIZAWA!!!!!
A Goddesses Blessing - Behind the Scenes!
☆ The character I had you all guess was Ueki from Law of Ueki! First person who guessed correctly will win a prize! (That's not a kiss unfortunately) Please don’t cheat by reading the answer then commenting, I want this to be fair :(
☆ Nick was able to get his High School Diploma! He had taken online classes to finally obtain it. He originally dropped out of school and pursued a life of illegal activities but now he is aiming to put that life past him to focus on you and Kai. Nick is doing everything he possibly can to get you and Kai out of the thing you guys live in (it can't even be called a house) so you two don’t end up like him or in crime.
☆ Nick hasn’t told [Name] that her mother is dead. He hates to be the one who shares bad news, or just things that make people he cares about unhappy, so he plans not to tell you until he has to. He doesn’t like speaking about her because of this.
