PROLOGUE

They called it the Reflex Link.
Some called it field sensitivity.
But most people just called it what it felt like:

Recognition.

---

Over time, the Quirk Bond phenomenon became more than a footnote in hero science.

It wasn’t widespread, but it wasn’t dismissed anymore.
Hero agencies started watching for it.
Elite schools like U.A. began recording potential signs—sparring results, synchronized recoveries, Quirk irregularities that only appeared in proximity to one other person.

Not to exploit it.
To protect it.

Because a Bond—once discovered—wasn’t just a strategy advantage.
It was a liability if misunderstood.
It was dangerous if taken lightly.

Some Bonds went unacknowledged.
Some went ignored.

Some broke people when they were severed.

But the ones that lasted?

Those became legend.

---

One pair were rivals who couldn’t last ten minutes in a room without arguing—until one overclocked his own body into convulsions, and the other grounded him with a single palm to the chest.

Another were best friends from childhood who didn’t realize what they had until their Quirks reacted in perfect tandem under a collapsing building. The girl with the shockwaves. The boy with the anchor. Neither would’ve survived alone.

Some Bonds bloomed into romance.
Some stayed locked in the field—pure energy, nothing else.
But almost all of them became… something.

Because when you’ve felt someone reset your body with nothing but presence, you don’t go back to normal.

Not really.

---

The world adapted.

Heroes with confirmed Bonds were trained in specialized rhythm-based tactics.
Some agencies even assigned Bonded pairs to joint missions for efficiency.

And while public terminology shifted—calling them Soulmatchers, Combat Pairs, Heartbeat Links—the professionals kept the original name:

Quirk Bonds.

Not because it sounded cool.

But because it was accurate.

It wasn’t about love.
It wasn’t about talent.
It wasn’t even about compatibility on paper.

It was this:

One Quirk begins to collapse. The other one stops it.

And together, they never fall the same way again.

---

Even now, Quirk Bonds are rare in the public record.

Not because they don’t happen.

But because no one knows how to prepare for them—and almost no one is ready to admit when they’re real.

Some heroes ignore the signs.
Others downplay them as coincidence.
Agencies hate confirming Bonds—it complicates scheduling, licensing, patrol pairing.
It raises too many questions about liability. Attachment. Emotional distraction. Dependency.

Because the truth is this:

> A Quirk Bond changes how you fight.
It changes how you burn.
And it changes the moment you realize—you don’t control everything anymore.
