Even "observes people and writes about them in a notebook" sort of weird?
[He asks with a shy smile as if giving Hank one last chance to get the hell outta dodge. Most people don't ask about his notebook. Even his friends at school view it as being a weird lower-case 'q' quirk of his that it was best to just let him go off on. At least they weren't so weirded out by it anymore.
And if Hank doesn't seem to show any resistance, he smiles more widely and scoots closer so Hank can look at the book and Sumo can jump on the couch if he so wishes.]
All sorts of notes. It started way back when I was younger, when I was Quirkless, I'd observe all of the Pros, trying to imagine how I could use their powers if I was them. But even now that I have a Quirk of my own, I still want to learn about all of the amazing things people can do with their Quirks. The possibilities are just amazing-
[It's not hard to see why he has a reputation for being weird. But he's also got the pure and unfiltered joy of a kid with a new toy at christmas as he talks about his notes and sketches.]
I was just starting a new page for Kacchan though. Mostly about the powers he has here. ...Had here. Just so I don't forget.
[He flips through the pages. On each there's a little sketch and some notes ranging from signature moves to possible weaknesses. As he goes further in the book. There are even the names and drawings of some circle members noting their Astoria granted powers. Konoha can create food, but only raw food, it notes. Shiro can turn into a metal lion but loses his humanity if he's in there too long and so on. Hank probably has his own entry too.
Finally, he stops on a page blank except for the drawing of a young man, about Izuku's age, with spikey hair, narrowed eyes, and a cocksure grin. It might not seem flattering at first, but there's clear affection in every line.
