Oh. [Izuku's eyes widen. Despite his constant over-thinking, he had never considered it that way before. It would make sense if meeting All Might and getting the quirk much earlier would have changed the sequence of events that came after.]

If...getting my quirk earlier means I wouldn't have met you or the others, then... I don't mind the way things turned out now. I just wish we could've met earlier. [He could've used a friend back then, and maybe Todoroki wouldn't have been caught up in those negative thoughts about his fire quirk for so long...there's so many "ifs" that Izuku's struggling not to think about now.]
