Summary
Midoriya Izuku has always carried more weight than anyone his age should.
Sleepless nights, constant vigilance, and the lingering fear left behind by villain attacks slowly chip away at him until exhaustion becomes impossible to hide.
When he unexpectedly falls asleep in the middle of Present Mic's class deeply, genuinely, uncharacteristically asleep Hizashi Yamada realizes something is very wrong.
A sleepy, vulnerable Izuku reveals far more than he ever meant to, and it becomes clear that he's been struggling alone for far too long.
With Aizawa joining in, the teachers of U.A. gently step in to help him rest, heal, and finally learn that being a hero doesn't mean carrying everything alone.
A soft, emotional found-family story about exhaustion, trust, and learning that it's okay to lean on the people who care.Series
