   Summary

   Forever isn't for everyone
   Is forever for you?
   It sounds like settlin' down or givin' up
   But it don't sound much like you, girl

   ---

   Izuku tried to remember what it felt like to run after something his whole life.
   What happens after ‘Happily Ever After’? After the curtain call? After ‘The End’?
   Another drag. Another puff.
   His life was great. His legacy was secure. His future was his own. His steps were deliberate.
   Izuku thought.
   Sorry, Mom. I lied to you.
   When was the last time his body had moved on its own?
   I’m actually—
   Shut the door. Turn the lock. Tie the chain. Board it up.
   Control your heart, Izuku.

   OR:
   Midoriya Izuku is doing just fine. It doesn't matter whether that is actually the truth, or if he's just deluded himself into believing that. He is doing just fine. But a dream of the villain he failed to save eight years ago causes a rift in his mind, making him second-guess his very identity.
