They could both develop their teamwork skills. In fanfiction, they might be put in various dangerous situations that require them to rely on each other. Izuku learns to better incorporate Melissa's support items into his fighting style, and Melissa learns how to adjust her items based on Izuku's needs and fighting style at the moment. This back - and - forth development makes their characters more well - rounded.
One interesting storyline could be Izuku and Melissa teaming up to create a new support item. Since Melissa is great at making support items in the 'My Hero Academia' world, and Izuku has a deep understanding of how quirks work. They might combine their skills to make something that helps Izuku enhance his quirk in a new way.
In many fanfictions, Izuku's character development often focuses on his confidence. Tsuyu's presence can be a stabilizing force for him. For example, when he hesitates during a fight, Tsuyu's straightforward and practical nature might encourage him to act. As for Tsuyu, she may develop her leadership skills. If she and Izuku are in a team - up situation frequently, she might learn to be more assertive from Izuku's determination.
In these fanfictions, Izuku often develops more confidence in his relationships. For example, he may start off shy around the girls in his harem but gradually become more assertive. This is because the support and love from his harem give him an extra boost.
Their relationship can develop through shared experiences. For example, if they face a common enemy together, they'll learn to trust each other more. Deku might rely on Melissa's technical expertise, and Melissa will see Deku's heroic side up close, which could lead to admiration and a deeper connection.
Izuku's character development would be quite complex. With Wolverine - like abilities, he'd have to learn to control the more animalistic and violent aspects, like the berserker rage. This would force him to grow in terms of self - control. He might also become more isolated at first, as he tries to figure out these new powers on his own. But eventually, he'd learn to use them in harmony with his friends and classmates, becoming a stronger leader in the process. Also, his relationships with his classmates would change. Some might be in awe of his new powers, while others might be a bit scared. He'd have to work to maintain those relationships while still exploring his new capabilities.
Their relationship can develop through shared experiences. For example, if they go on a mission together. Deku's heroic nature and Melissa's intelligence can complement each other. They might start as friends, but as they rely on each other more, feelings can grow. Like when Deku saves Melissa from a villain, she starts to see him in a new light, not just as a hero but as someone she could care for deeply.
In some fanfictions, their relationship might develop more quickly. For example, All Might could reveal his true form to Izuku much earlier, leading to a deeper bond right from the start. This could make Izuku more determined to prove himself worthy. In other cases, their relationship could be strained. Maybe Izuku starts to doubt All Might's methods and they have a falling out, only to reconcile later when they realize they both have the same goal.
They may depict him having internal monologues full of self - loathing. For instance, he could constantly think that he's a failure or that everyone would be better off without him. His eating habits might change too. He could either lose his appetite and start skipping meals, or overeat as a form of comfort. In battle, his performance might decline as he lacks the usual drive and confidence, and is more likely to make mistakes.
Often, Izuku reacts with shock and disbelief at first. He can't fathom why someone he trusted would turn on him.
There's a fanfic called 'Melissa in the Frontlines'. In this story, Melissa finds herself in the middle of a battle and has to use her engineering skills on the spot to help the heroes. It's full of action and shows Melissa in a new, exciting light. Well worth reading if you like seeing her character pushed to the limits.
