Summary
Toph knew about soulmarks. She knew about the words that danced across a person’s skin, in elegant script or rough characters, changing to match the most prevalent thoughts in their soulmate’s head. She knew some people had only one, while others could carry two or even three sets of words, destiny’s way of chucking a rock to say hey, you’re gonna want to listen to these guys. She knew that when soulmates met, the marks changed color from plain black to match one another’s eyes, or the color of their bond, or something sappy like that.
What Toph didn’t know was if she bore any soulmarks to match the heartbeats she could sometimes feel fluttering over her skin.

Summary
All Might bore two soulmarks on his skin. One that people knew about, speculated over, faded to a dull, dead gray - a simple kanji on the back of his right hand. Courage.
But it was the left hand he held out to Izuku, close enough the boy could see another kanji, so small it was nearly invisible tucked among the wrinkles of his palm: wobbly green lines that spelled out hope.
(“Maybe it should say ‘tears’ instead, huh?” All Might tried to joke with an awkward smile when Izuku couldn’t stop crying.)

Summary
In which Shimura Tenko grows up to become Kowasu, the Deconstruction Hero, unknowingly shaping the world around him as he goes. Featuring such changes as: Izuku developing a lot more self-confidence in himself as a child, the Todoroki kids getting themselves and their mother out from under Endeavor's control, Aizawa learning that having young fans might not be such a bad thing, and Yagi having three very determined family members supporting him during his final years as All Might. Oh, and All for One getting hit in the face with a child's shoe; that's a very important thing that happens.
