The flag here for Quirk: Incubus was sent with the rationale

This could violate the site’s policy on pornographic content

I was torn for a moment but the fact that Midoriya and his classmates are all still kids in this fic makes me lean towards cut, even if it does seem to have a plot.

The fact that the tag page specifically says "TW: pedophilia" doesn't give me hope.

According to the trope list there's a plot about Midoriya being sexually abused by a professor, but it doesn't seem to be played for titillation, considering he's shown as a victim and the professor is shown to be a villain.

I’n currently reading this now and am at the third chapter. The sexual content is fairly light and the only sex scene (between Izuku and a teacher) is not only described in as little detail as possible, but is portrayed as sexual abuse.

[up] I didn’t read past the first two chapters so there’s a good chance that it does become pornographic later. I’m not interested in reading an entire 14 chapter fic for this thread.

I'm willing to read the remaining chapters up to Chapter 7 and I'll tackle Chapter 3 and 4 today.

Alright, basic summary of Chapters 3 and 4:

    Chapter 3 
  • 11 other victims of Mr. Tayu (the pedo-teacher that SA'd Izuku) come out; school tries covering it up to give the students privacy and dignity but parents were called and the media caught wind of it.
  • A counselor comes over and reveals that Izuku has a sex Quirk (his specifically is based around gaining and stocking power from any form of sexual contact); he does a Infodump about the rarity of sex Quirks, users of these quirks should normally discover them when they're teenagers, how users that have them are highly protected by the law - especially if they're minors - and gives an example about a girl who was trafficked for her sex Quirk which led to the creation of the aforementioned laws. Doesn't go into explicit NSFW detail.
  • Izuku states that he wants to learn more about his Quirk to be a hero after the Infodump.
  • Later, Izuku went to thank for Bakugo for I think speaking up when Tayu did his crime (haven't read Chapters 1 and 2). Then Izuku goes into a spiraling rant about how his Quirk gives him power through sexual contact and claimed that he "used" Tayu and Bakugo tells him that their teacher was horrible and went after Izuku for being easy to target due to being supposedly Quirkless and brought up that he went after actual Quirkless kids as well, and that teachers aren't supposed to be like that. At the end of that discussion, Bakugo and Izuku head to the latter's house to study. While it is a discussion about Child SA, it's played for drama and doesn't have explicit NSFW detail
  • Izuku asks Bakugo if he could become a hero with his Quirk, the latter quips that since Izuku has limbs to fight, if Izuku beats him in gym, then he might consider him Hero material.

    Chapter 4 
  • Izuku attends Quirk Counseling to better understand his Quirk.
  • Another Infodump about Sex Quirks ensue and more details are revealed about Izuku and his counselor's Quirks (The Quirk of the Counselor, Riku, is based around control hormones).
  • Riku then explains that Izuku shouldn't have discovered his Quirk through being SA'd by his teacher, basically condemning child SA.
  • Then Riku forms a plan with Inko and Izuku about how to use Izuku's Quirk for heroism but stating that Izuku needs to follow his therapy so he can avoid getting in trouble with his Quirk. Riku brings up that Izuku might need a partner to make it easier to use his Quirk but state that these partnerships tend to be made later into a school career or after graduation. No direct mentions of something NSFW
  • Therapy ensues and Izuku tells his story about being abused by Mr. Taya. No explict NSFW detail; I think the scene is there to further the plot and give more character development
  • Izuku does some training with Bakugo, they chat and bond.


Overall, seems plot-focused so far. Will try to review Chapters 5-6 tomorrow

Excuse the triple post, but due to personal stuff happening, I don't think I'll be able to continue reading the tic in question. I'm sorry.

Managed the whole thing.

  • The CSA is portrayed as Horrible Awefull Double Plus Ungood, and covered by Unsexy Discretion Shot. The grooming that lead up to it gets a little more detail, including at one point that it's obvious that the abuser is aroused. Still supposed to be gut-wrenching. This part should be "Keep".
  • Next quirk use is when moving to highschool, so 14-15 yo. To use the quirk, he has to do things that are "considered sexual" to power up. This can be as mild as schoolyard-crush holding hands type stuff.
    • Most of his power comes from (mutually agreed) sessions with another 15 yo. It's stated that they go further than kissing, but not to intercourse. Discretion Shot is in effect in-universe. This is not a romantic pairing.
    • In combat, character puts on a predatory/aggressively sexual persona both because he can pull power by doing "Creepy stroke their face" stuff to opponents and because it's distracting and offputting to the unprepared. This technique has been developed with the input of his therapist and other adult experts in-universe.

The later point makes me hesitate, though it doesn't seem to be played for titillation.

Looks like we have consensus to keep. I'll do the record-keeping; closing in the meantime.
