#Aizawa: i thought i had a lead but now I'm in a completely different reality. WHAT IS HAPPENING

[pocketramblr]

5 ask game:

An au where through a turn of events Aizawa gets custody of Midoriya a week before classes start (I think this could be humorous or angsty af depending on what you do with it)

You know how I'm going to pull this off? Bet you can't guess. Ok did you notice that no one sent any au about Giran? I did and I'm going to fix that. Let's go

1- the series of events starts because Giran is Hisashi. Calls his family but isn't there in person, ya know. Has a tap on the phones in case of government calls- he doesn't care about eavesdropping on what Inko tells Masaru she's buying for someone's birthday, but he would like a warning in case something happens like the police calling his son to ask about his father's whereabouts.

So, the last week of February, he's alerted when Izuku calls the Quirk Registry to update his information- which he absolutely should not be doing, because he should not have a quirk from AfO.

2- Giran also knows his son will be starting at UA in five weeks, and there's a plan to attack. He needs to know how the hell Izuku got a quirk, if he's a mole or a target of the attack, and he needs to find out quickly. But Izuku isn't going to tell him the truth (he tried asking). So, he needs someone who can either figure it out or get Izuku to tell him, while also being able to keep Izuku away from AfO. Which... Eraser evaded AfO a while without realizing it, and it would probably be easier to get him involved than someone like All Might.

3- Target picked, Giran starts the plan. He announces he's coming home for a month and spends a week there, then buys Inko tickets to enjoy herself on a ten day cruise while he takes care of everything at home, since she's had to do herself so long. He's quite the charmer, there's a reason Inko married him. The day after Inko leaves, he spends the day with Izuku. Then, that night, he fakes an accident that puts him in a coma. Izuku wakes up to police knocking on his door and apologizing, asking to speak with his mom. But she's not there. And she won't be back for over a week. They bring him to the hospital instead.

4- Meanwhile, Aizawa gets a call from the hospital and assumes it's because something happened to Mic or Midnight, but when he gets there... Apparently he has a long lost half brother he never knew about? Who is in a coma? Leaving behind a child who needs a temporary guardian? And they prefer to place them with family? And the kid clearly doesn't know him, but Aizawa recognizes him as the bone breaking kid, so, why not. This is what his life is like now. It's temporary until his mom gets back anyway, and that'll be a few days before UA starts and it gets too awkward.

5- After going back him with the kid, Aizawa investigates around the house and does find the fake records of the relation to his apparent older brother. Giran left the copy of the Quirk Registration form in that stack too, to pique Aizawa's attention. It works a little, and the next day when Izuku wakes up and asks to go train, Aizawa prods about where and with who- "A trainer, he's been helping me out the last year. The hospital won't let me into the room to see my dad, and I just need to do something..." Aizawa gets the feeling, asks if Izuku's parents know about this trainer. Izuku says yes, his mom was helping with the diet plan. Giran, eavesdropping now on purpose, knows that Izuku's lying. Then Aizawa asks how he's being training for a year with a quirk he's only had a month. Izuku awkwardly tries to answer without answering, but Aizawa shrugs and says it's fine, as long as he meets this trainer and can have his number in case of emergencies. Izuku can't really argue with that, and takes Aizawa with him to the beach, where he recognizes the trainer of his apparently long lost nephew is All Might.
