Therapy

" Neito! Do it again! Do it again! "

Toga kept bothering Neito as she walked besides him, her ever present creepy smile plastered on her face.

But Neito wasn't paying attention to her any longer, he didn't think she would develop such a strange fascination with this quirk.

" No I won't, I have already experimented and some more, why are you so eager to be a puppet anyway? "

Showing her teeth Toga laughed with a happy smile.

" That quirk is so much fun, it makes me feel all giddy. "

Twitching his lips Neito said loosely.

" I don't think that's how it's supposed feel, it should be you trapped within your mind as your body obeys another, it's a scary experience. "

Grabbing her cheeks Toga said with morbid curiousity.

" But it's Neito, it's all good. "

' That makes no sense! '

Screamed Neito in his head, but he refused to comment on it, Toga was a little out there, that's just the way she was.

He had to get used to her antics, and he can't be thinking of other stuff right now, he had to go.

" Whatever you say Himiko, now that you are dressed, let's go meet our new partner. "

Straying away from Neito because she couldn't get what she wanted, Toga kept touching the walls of the corridor while walking.

" Who is it? Are we going out? "

Shaking his head, Neito clarified to Toga and gave her the details.

" His name is Jin Bubaigawara, quirk 'Double' , I had him arrested and he's currently in our detention facility. "

Arresting Twice was a move thought up by Nezu, Neito knew what kind of games Nezu liked to play so he followed along, he knew Nezu was doing this to get Twice out of his mental block.

Right now all he had to do was convince Jin to follow him, Jin was a small time villain, Neito can give him relief from a constant hunt, and the arrest for that matter.

* Screech *

Opening a door purposely made to produce an unsettling sound by Nezu, Neito walked in, just to see twice being strapped to a chair.

" Hey! There must be a misunderstanding! Let me go! Please! "

Jin Bubaigawara immediately screamed when he saw people come in, but stopped speaking with confusion when he saw they were two young kids.

" Mr Jin Bubaigawara, or should I call you Twice, that is your villain identity isn't it. "

Jin by now understood this blonde boy was incharge of him, maybe a quirk that makes him look younger? Matters not, he had to get out.

" Sir I am innocent, it's a misunderstanding! "

" No it's not! I did everything! "

* Aaah! *

Bending his head Jin tried to avoid splitting up, he was speaking in double even without his mask on now, he was under too much pressure.

" Calm down. "

Out of nowhere a sense of relief washed over him, he felt his control over his body slipping away and him taking the backseat.

" Are you good? Wonderful, do not panic, you are currently under the influence of my quirk, and I want you to understand something, you aren't a clone. "

While Jin couldn't speak, he strangely didn't have any more feeling of splitting, he was somehow one, he didn't feel this way for years..!

Paying him no heed, Neito continued with his newly acquired quirk activated.

" You can't be anything but the main body, anything more than a broken bone would have collapsed you if you were a copy, we have checked your quirk, that's how it works for everything, even yourself. "

This was enough information to tell Jin with 'Brainwashing' activated so Neito cancelled the quirk, this wasn't him giving commands or actually brainwashing, he was simply stating facts, important facts.

The orginal owner was afraid of his own quirk so he didn't completely dig out the potential of brainwashing, but Neito did, he had High Spec to understand all the nitty gritty of a quirk.

Neito simply played on one overlooked aspect of the quirk, while brainwashing can't actually brainwash, it can force you to listen with rapt attention if not follow orders directly.

And that's what Neito did to Twice, he had him listen without anymore disturbances in his mind, fully take in what Neito wanted to say in his subconscious.

With this, Neito changed brainwashing into a therapy quirk, a quirk fit for a hero.

" Huff Huff Huff! "

" What did you do to me?!? "

Asked Jin as he finally got back his ability to move, sweat poured down his forehead but his eyes had a wide hopeful look to them.

Neito smiled and took a seat before Twice, while Toga kept quiet and watched from behind Neito.

" I did what you might call a pro gamer move. "

" Huh? "

" I mean I changed your subconscious perception of yourself, I can reverse it if you want, but you seemed to be in pain. "

Shaking his head with renewed vigor Twice almost begged Neito.

" Please don't! I don't want to feel like that again! You can lock me in! Just don't make me go back to that state anymore! "

Tapping his finger on his seat, Neito looked at Twice who somehow had a renewed sense of vigor to him.

He was even ready to serve a small sentence for this, but Neito wasn't here to punish the man, he was a good man, only made this way due to circumstances.

" You don't have to worry, my quirk wouldn't have worked unless you yourself wanted to believe what I just told you. "

Every quirk has it's corresponding instincts associated with it, double has it too, if Jin didn't go through his trauma he wouldn't have any issues at all.

It was like how he made copies of the league and none of them had a problem with clones trying to kill the original, even Jin got over his trauma later in canon.

All Neito did was nudge him in the right direction, brainwashing wasn't powerful enough to make someone believe something they didn't want to.

" I..? I believe this myself? "

Jin shakily questioned and Neito nodded his head seriously, then he spoke with calmness.

" Yes, you always knew you were the original, you simply had doubts you weren't willing to face, I solved that issue for you. "

" Now onto your sentence, I have a proposal for you Mr Bubaigawara. "

Gulping hard, Jin asked with a bit of fear.

" What..? What proposal? "

Smiling lightly, Neito took out a contract and put it before Jin.

" How would you like to be full time hero? "
