PHOENIX

This boy, a child from nobody parents, has so much potential to destroy everything Erena has been working to protect since her recruitment. If. If he ever manages to break Kioku’s conditioning, whether he becomes a hero or villain, the HPSC, and consequently hero society, will crash.But honestly, it’s a pretty big if. There just aren’t many timelines where that happens. In most of them, the kid remains…handicapped. In the very few where he manages to be a hero anyway, he’s a thorn, but not a bad one. Most of them have him pushed into villainy, where he’s taken out by a hero—usually the Bakugou boy. She eyes her outboxes warily. In all technicality, the scale of disaster means she should have him up for assassination, even if it isn’t a likely outcome. But she really doesn’t want to do that. He’s five. And the likelihood is so low…She flips the file closed and drops it on top of Shinsou’s.
