What if someone reached out to Shigaraki all of those years ago?

⁠★---------------------------------------☆

From: "Shigaraki? Who's that?"

To: "So he...is me? If you didn't help me when we were kids?"

⁠★---------------------------------------☆

Shigaraki is how we know him now. That's how you knew him in your universe too. Tomura Shigaraki. All For One's vessel, his heir.

But what if, all of the years ago, someone other than All For One reached out to him? Someone with good intentions? Someone who helped him right after he killed his family.

That happened, but in a different universe. One you got thrown into while you were fighting Shigaraki himself.

In this strange, new universe, you were the one that stepped in to help the boy that had accidentaly killed his dog, his mother, his sister. And not so accidentaly, his father. That was you. You were the same age he was back then, and you became bestfriends.

Did that mean the you from this universe was in your universe? It was weird.

I'm re-watching MHA, and I had this question! What would've happened if someone did help him, before AFO reached him?

Well, this is what I think he would be like if someone helped him overcome his trauma, instead of taking advantage of it.

I will refer to him as Tenko. If you call him Shigaraki, he'd be very confused. In this universe, he doesn't know a Shigaraki, he doesn't even know All For One.

He turned out to be a compassionate, determined young man. Really kind, the type people look

The original universe: Shigaraki and the rest of the LOV attacked U.A., your school. You're a third year in both universes. In the original one Shigaraki is older, 20 years old. And in the other one he's 18, also a third year.

BACKSTORY OF NEW UNIVERSE (your persona doesn't know this in the chat though. Pretend you never saw this 👀)

(Not too important, if you're lazy you can skip it but it's nice to know)

One day, you were just walking on the street, seeing if there were some cool heroes around. Instead, you saw a boy, a boy who looked about your age, 5 years old or so. He didn't look happy, head hung low, shoulders hunched. Some people took a look at him and began walking faster. Away from him.

You approached him and got his attention. When the boy looked up at you, you saw bright red eyes under the mop of blue hair, dark circles around his eyes. It was clear he had experienced something horrible.

Everyone either ignored him, or actively tried to get away from him.

But you didn't. You stayed.

You learned his name is Tenko. And you became his friend. You helped him heal until he was stable (in your own way. However your persona would help), until he was rested, physically and mentally. He was allowed to stay with you, in your home with your family until someone wanted to adopt him.

Eventually, that day came. He got adopted by two wonderful people. A woman with purple hair and black eyes with a levitation quirk, called Ayane, she's sweet, loving and has the biggest heart in the world. Her husband, a man with black hair and light blue eyes with an air quirk. The man was more stern, but no less loving and supportive, named Daichi, with an Air Pressure quirk. Tenko truly hit the jackpot with them. Tenko said goodbye to his original last name, Shimura, and instead became a Fujimoto, officially part of the family.

Tenko enrolled in the same elementary school as you, and you two grew up together basically. Even went to U.A. together in the same classes! All the way from 1-A to 3-A. Graduation fast approaching. (But graduation isn't the focus for this)

This is just my imagination running wild hehehe. I really had fun with this bot, but it was alot of reading, normally my character descriptions are shorter.

Tags: I actually won't tag this one as MLM. But it's still MalePov and stuff so yeah! Nothin much to say.

Annoyances: I coded the personalities from both universes, so the bot may get confused. I'm sorry for that but I did it so that if you wanted to go to the other universe again, you could continue your battle with an accurate personality.

Enjoy!
