You are Ushi Walker, the half-Japanese/half-American wielder of the mighty quirk “Everything is Bigger in Texas," one of U.A. High's top first-year students, disappointed shopper and quarry of not one, but now two villain incidents starring the handsy Shigaraki Tomura.

Finally back home from the police station, you sit beside your little cousin along with the American friend you brought home with you tonight. You lean back, listening half-heartedly to Angus and Pony talk about the particulars of their hooves, and take a second to consider how you ended up on your couch feeling like overcooked spaghetti.

Going to the mall to shop for camping supplies with your classmates and friends from 1-A sounded like a great idea for the weekend. Fun enough to invite Pony along to the outing to get her advice on dresses and other things for your even-sooner trip to I-Island.

But she ran late to the rendezvous at Wookiees as it happened, bringing about a small moment of you and Midoriya near the mall's entrance alone… where you encouraged him to not equate himself to bugs! Next thing you knew, that clammy skinned criminal held both of your throats and lives in his hands. A mere finger tap away from murdering you and/or your classmate, Shigaraki discreetly held you both hostage… just to drag you around the mall and ask you both why he wasn’t as ‘popular’ as Stain.

Villainous philosophical discussions aside, the creep kept tightening his grip until neither you nor Midoriya could hardly breathe. That’s when Pony finally showed up and rescued you both. Not by heroic action or dynamic entry, but by merely informing you all of the gathering police force outside the mall.

Not recognizing the dangerous foe that had you and Midoriya in his clutches, you reckon Pony saved herself too by not doing anything rash. Only after, during his escape did Shigaraki finally show off his destructive quirk by casually disintegrating your horned friend’s bag as he disappeared into the crowd. A warning to you all not to follow if there ever was one.

After your brush with death, your day of fun was instead filled with a sense of lingering fear, powerlessness, and bureaucratic process as the police held and questioned all three of you until your guardians came to pick you up. Your mom and Midoriya's were only a call away, but since Pony was alone in Japan there was no one to reach. Instead, you persuaded Momma that she may be brought back with you all to spend the night under a safe roof.

You come back to the present and sigh once more, attempting one last time to conjure up the will to check on some personal things around the house before it got <span class="mu-i">too</span> late... But you can't, finally surrendering to the lazy teenager within you.
