Note
You know, Mimi pointed out the weird differences between the Bakusquad and Dekusquad - like, one seems to be full of feral dumbasses, and the other seems to be the kind of people who think homework is fun, but canonically, the Bakus organize study groups together, while at least three members of the Deku Crew were involved with vigilante justice, and the only reason the others weren’t was because they didn’t know it was happening.
I remember real early to when I got into the fandom I came across a meme showing Katsuki and Iida and the caption was 'one of these kids attempted vigilante revenge murder, the other has a strict bedtime routine at 8:30 pm. Guess which one?'.

“tenya iida is an attempted murderer”
ACTUALLY. This scene shows how important friendship and family is to him because Stain hurt him so much that he BROKE HIS OWN MORAL CODE OF FOLLOWING THE RULES to get revenge for his brother. On top of that, when Midoriya wanted to rescue Bakugou from being kidnapped, Iida once again BROKE HIS MORAL CODE BECAUSE OF HOW MUCH HE CARES ABOUT HIS FRIENDS AND DIDNT WANT TO SEE MIDORIYA HURT. Iida means everything to me because he holds family and found family over literally everything. He’s such a kind character.

My idea for a potential DEATH BATTLE! #10
2024 jun 22, 25
PREVIOUS POST
Steve vs. Emmet Brickowski
MASTER LIST
Tumblr media
Tenya Iida vs. A-Train (My Hero Academia vs. The Boys)
Battle of the superhuman society speedsters!
THUMBNAIL
FIGHTER 1: Tenya Iida, the next Turbo Hero Ingenium.
FIGHTER 2: A-Train, the Seven’s speedy Supe.
Wiz: Time waits for no man, and society maintains a perpetual state of rush hour. There’s always someone to save, something to do.
*insert clips of Sonic X’s “Gotta Go Fast” and its cop chase scene from Episode 1, Barry Allen and Wally West, Formula 1 Racing or NASCAR, Pixar’s Lightning McQueen, and Dreamworks’ Turbo*
Boomstick: These two superheroes are always living life in the fast lane, but whose drive will let them survive this Death Race? He's Wiz and I'm Boomstick.
Wiz: And it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor, and skills to find out who would win... a Death Battle.
PREFACE (What to know): 
I’ll be looking primarily at the Amazon show rather than the comics and using the Garth Ennis comics as secondary sources. For Iida, I’ll be focusing more on the manga. Also, as much as I want to focus on character interaction, because holy cow, the potential for it is palpable with these two, I don’t know how much of it I can fit. You’ll see why soon.
WHY: 
Connections (What do they have in common):
1. Both are speedsters in superhuman societies with blue and gray coloring, and use eyewear (Iida’s glasses, A-Train’s goggles). Their naming is also themed after engines, Iida’s hero epithet the Turbo Hero Ingenium and A-Train is named after a train.
2. Both form/formed part of respected and/or renowned superhero associations (UA High School for Iida, Vought Corporation and The Seven for A-Train).
3. Both have older brothers who helped improve their speedster skills that introduced them to self-harming methods for improving their speeds (Iida rips out the mufflers in his quads and A-Train overuses Compound V and increases the risk of cardiac arrest severely) that also end up crippled and unable to walk again, provoking both to attempt revenge kills that nearly costed them their lives.
4. Said revenge drove them to their lowest points and marked turning points in who they were not just as heroes, but as people. Iida began to be more protective of his friends, culminating in him and the rest of Class 1-A saving Deku from himself. Iida even told Deku that the essence of heroism is meddling when you don’t need to, which was what Deku said when saving Iida from Stain. A-Train killed Blue Hawk in a time when he was beginning to feel genuine remorse for his murders and collateral damage. He went to Hughie and genuinely apologized for killing Robin, and he feels that life sucks because Nate hates him now.
5. Both take up the role of a previous speedster hero. Iida takes up the role of the aforementioned Tensei Iida who was the previous Ingenium, and A-Train fills the spot in The Seven left by Mister Marathon.
Personal reasons (Why I want this battle/like this MU): 
My Hero Academia vs. The Boys. UA High School vs. Vought Corporation. Student of Heroics vs “Hero”. Quirk vs. Compound V. Speed vs. Speed. In general, I love the idea of MHA vs. The Boys and how they portray the idea of the superhuman society and the incredible crossover potential. Imagine a story that takes place in a world where both Vought and UA exist. Are The Seven heroes of world renown like All Might? How would the world of Quirks react to the idea of a chemical that can give individual superpowers? How would Deku, our initially quirkless protagonist, react knowing that maybe could have avoided so much childhood trauma and other very disgusting things if he had that chemical? Would Endeavor have abused it when attempting to becoming #1 or when training Dabi and Shoto? Would All For One have tried to gain a monopoly on the substance or go against it? Would he order Dr. Garaki to replicate it? What about Hero Killer Stain’s reaction to Compound V and the super commercialized Supes brought to us by Vought? Would he just go on a bloody crusade or join The Boys? Would Billy Butcher accept Stain or just think of him as a lunatic? What about Overhaul’s reaction to a compound that does the opposite of his quirk killer bullets? So much stuff to write fanfiction about. 
What I like about this matchup specifically is how contrasting the two are as people: 
Iida is upstanding and upright. He wants to look after his friends after his attempt at revenge and live up to his family’s legacy of generational heroism. A-Train wasn’t born with his powers, rather he takes what is essentially a needle drug to give him powers, and wants to be the fastest. To quote The Boys Fandom, “He'll do whatever it takes to remain in The Seven, because he knows it's only a matter of time until a younger, faster challenger takes his place — and that's a problem even the fastest man in the world can't outrun.” Will Iida be that new and young challenger despite not being a candidate for The Seven? Would A-Train get Shockwave flashbacks? Would Iida try to be like Deku and attempt to understand what led A-Train to the point he currently is? Would he be empathetic to wanting to exact revenge against someone who crippled a dear older brother? I think Iida would be empathetic, but disappointed that A-Train chose to turn his life around only because of the consequences that affected him. A-Train is a cautionary tale to Iida and should remind him of Stain’s values, and Iida could be A-Train’s saving light. A-Train may not be a total monster, but he is still more monster than human.
THE FIGHT:
Art and animation: 
MHA has, as of me writing this, appeared three times in DB! and only one was animated in 3D, and when DB! did their Seven Battle Royale, all characters that participated, including A-Train, were in 2D pixels. It’s most likely a 2D fight. Maybe we can get some well-placed hand-drawn bits and pieces like Mob vs. Tatsumaki to emphasize some of the cooler moments.
Possible setup: 
At a hero convention held in Dagobah National Stadium done as a collaboration between UA High School and Vought International. We see Deku fanboying over the superheroes present and Hawks talking to some Supes and Vought executives. The stadium is full of cheering fans, looking onto a racing circuit. There are also lots of cameras streaming the event onto the world wide web.
From all around the stadium we hear, “Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for coming to the UA Vought Convention! Our first event is the Charity Race! Get ready for the supersonic action between our speed icons, UA’s Ingenium and The Seven’s A-Train!”
We cut to our heroes at the starting line, stretching and warming up. Once done, Ingenium outstretched his right hand, “May the better speedster win!”
“Oh, I plan to. You’ll be eating my dust soon.” A-Train doesn’t even turn to face Iida and leaves him hanging. As A-Train gets into running position, Ingenium is taken aback by his fellow hero’s rudeness. However, there is a race that is about to go underway, so Ingenium puts on his helmet and gets into running position as well.
A-Trian isn’t worried, this kid isn’t Shockwave. He had made sure to take a little extra Compound V just in case, though. He’ll win this one for Nate. 
“Gentlemen! Start your engines!” A man a safe distance from the two is wearing a lot of safety gear and padding. He holds up a gun, and Iida’s engines are revving.
There is a gunshot and both are off at sonic speeds. Unfortunately, in this hero society, there were a lot of rabid fans that were dying to get up close to see their idols in action. Let’s just say that one of those fans was about to have their wish granted. A spectator had fallen onto the race track, right in front of the racers. Ingenium notices and slows down.
“Look out!”, but A-Train just splatters the person into pieces like he did Robin and continues running. Ingenium, now angry, goes after his fellow speedster.
“Stop! You have just killed a civilian!”
“Shut up! I will win! I can’t stop for anything! I’m the fastest man in the world!” Maybe taking that little extra V juice was a bad idea. 
Iida catches up and attempts a kick. A-Train notices and meets Ingenium’s kick with a punch of his own. He’s really hoping Hughie wasn’t watching.
FIGHT! :
1. The bloody murder had caused shrieks and panicking among the fans. The announcer was doing his damndest to calm everyone down. “Everyone, please do not panic! Exit the stadium in orderly fashion!” Ingenium and A-Train’s hits meet and they keep running, but Ingenium attempts another kick, resulting in A-Train grabbing his leg and throwing him into a wall and grants A-Train the lead in the now futile charity race. As A-Train completes a lap, Ingenium times his next attack, and successfully tackles A-Train and attempts to apprehend him, but A-Train escapes the stadium and Ingenium follows.
2. The fight has now broken onto the streets outside. A-Train is causing some more deaths, and Ingenium is staying behind to make sure that the collateral is reduced. Ingenium tackles A-Train once again, but they stumble. They land on a river and then continue their chase running on the river. 
3. They get off the river and into traffic, sending pieces of trash and paper flying. We get a perspective of A-Train’s point of view from his season 1 fight against Starlight (when everything looked to be moving in slow motion), running at Ingenium and decking him squarely in the helmet, cracking it a lot. This sends Ingenium crashing into a building. People are fleeing and screaming out of fear. Before A-Train can get run and another hit in, Ingenium’s engines start to flare up, and A-Train is suddenly hit in the gut. Ingenium had used Engine Boost, and having punched A-Train hard, attempts to subdue him while he has the advantage.
4. A-Train does not give Ingenium the chance, pushing back and kneeing Ingenium in the gut. A-Train and Ingenium then run onto a subway track. As they continue trying to punch and kick the other, they dodge oncoming trains as well. Unfortunately for Ingenium, this gives A-Train the chance to grab him again by the leg, and A-Train attempts to kill Ingenium like he did Blue Hawk, and wears down Ingenium’s armor. Unfortunately for A-Train, however, Ingenium is neither Shockwave or Blue Hawk. Ingenium activates Recipro Burst, and his engines burn up A-Train’s hand. Ingenium gets up and produce a strong collision between that sends them flying out of the subway tunnel and back onto the streets.
5. Ingenium attempts to quickly subdue A-Train, but he can’t. Recipro Turbo has now worn off, and A-Train gets Ingenium on his knees, and repeatedly slams Ingenium’s head against the pavement. “This wasn’t supposed to happen! I was supposed to win, to prove to everyone that I was above that f*cking racist Blue Hawk! I was supposed to get my brother back on my side with this race! I barely patched things up with  But YOU came along and F*CKED IT ALL UP FOR ME!” Iida is having a hard time listening to A-Train since his head is about to suffer a concussion, but… Is he feeling… Sympathy? He wants to earn his brother’s love again? “Now you’re going to suffer like your slow-ass brother before you…!” 
6. No one insults Tensei Iida, because no one knows Tensei Iida like Tenya Iida. Now furious, Ingenium elbows A-Train and punches him hard and both struggle to stand. Ingenium finds some ice and applies it to his legs, and he feels a lot of relief. “My brother was a hero! He risked his own life to protect the lives of others! He… He paid for it so hard… But you! You blame me for the consequences of your actions!” A-Train is now royally ticked off, and injects more Compound V into his legs, and Ingenium tries to intervene. “You take drugs?! You dare think of yourself as a hero?!” It wasn’t Trigger, Iida thought, but that’s for later. A-Train had jacked up his speed more, and punches Ingenium again before he could get closer. They start to run again. Iida quickly gathers some ice to cool himself off, and with Recipro Extend, Iida is off. However, he is still too slow, and A-Train starts to really lay it into him and he can’t see him coming. “Give up, kid!” Compound V has now made A-Train even faster than he was before, and Ingenium is getting hit from all angles, but Ingenium activates Recipro Turbo and successfully catches A-Train. They try to run, and while they can get good hits in, A-Train is even able to fully break Ingenium’s helmet, both are effectively near their limits, but they can’t stop. 
7. A-Train tried to strike Ingenium in the leg, but it was a grave mistake, as the hot engine severely hurts A-Train’s leg. It wasn’t completely for nothing, as A-Train even damaged one Ingenium’s mufflers. Both are sent tumbling to an empty main street with considerable distance from each other. Ingenium crashes into a train, severely denting its side and A-Train is sent into a train station. 
8. Now, it’s all or nothing. “I will beat you. I… Will win… Because I AM THE FASTEST MAN IN THE WORLD!” A-Train gets up and gets ready. Across from him is Ingenium. “You may be fast… But I can’t give up! A hero never gives up! My brother didn’t, and my friends didn't give up! I will do what they all did…! I have to go BEYOND!” Both are ready to fight. A-Train tries to inject some more Compound V. F*ck, this he is going to pay. Iida starts to overtax his thrusters. He’s been storing some energy, and he’s ready to unleash it. A-Train runs so fast that the pavement starts to crack with every step, and Iida unleashes his Maximum Speed, and shouts “PLUS ULTRAAA!” Their speed is so great that the glass in all buildings nearby shatters, and the pavement is left dust. 
9. Iida wins by A-Train succumbing to a heart attack. Ingenium is able to kick A-Train first and sends him back into the train station. A-Train had already abused Compound V, and with him overexerting himself, he feels his chest hurt and simply doesn’t get up. Iida crawls and limps his way. “I’m sorry… But these are the consequences of your actions.” We then see some ambulances arrive
10. A-Train wins by getting in a killing blow first. A-Train’s chest hurts, but victory is close at hand. As the two speedsters close in on each other, A-Train simply strikes first. He punches Iida into the ground so hard that his head bleeds. “Told you…” We see A-Train panting, and then he runs away as ambulances start to arrive.
11. KO!
RESULT:
Strengths and weaknesses:
Iida:
+ Is generally the more mentally put together and smarter of the two.
+ Has more martial skills than just running fast.
 ≥ At his fastest, Iida could likely move faster than Dark Shadow who could time lightning. This is a HUGE stretch, but Iida, at his fastest, could be faster than A-Train. Iida has only gone faster since then.
- Costume does not really serve as armor as Stain was able to cut through it.
- Iida is left a sitting duck after using Recipro Turbo and Recipro Burst.
A-Train:
+ Better perception. (supposedly)
+ Stronger as he could pull a train (ba dum tss) in Season 1 of The Boys.
+ Even if Iida was faster, A-Train has more consistent showings of his speed.
 ≥ Arguably more durable if he can withstand ramming himself into people so fast they turn into just blood on pavement.
- Overdosing on Compound V is fatal to himself, compared to Recipro Turbo which only momentarily incapacitates Iida (is this still possible with his heart transplant?)
- A precise strike could leave him incapacitated, like when he was hit in the back of the knee when he was trying to intimidate Hughie by kidnapping his dad.
Ending puns:
"A-Train simply couldn’t handle the s-train."
"Iida cer-train-ly met his match today."
MUSIC:
Name: Top Gear
The name makes reference to both characters being speedsters with an engine naming theme. Iida has mentioned that his speed works in gears like a car (Quirk Assessment test), and both have a max speed mode in Recipro Turbo and an overdose of Compound V which would be both of them shifting to their max gear.
Art: The cover shows a vial of Compound V rocketing towards the front via the Engine’s Recipro Turbo with Iida’s glasses and A-Trains goggles flying away. The speed is so much that the vial is cracking under strain. There are blur lines all around the speeding vial.
Sound: 
I want to take inspiration from songs like Michael Jackson’s Speed Demon, Golden Earring’s Radar Love, or Deep Purple’s Highway Star to reflect A-Train’s need for speed, but to stay truer to the characters, I decided to look at songs that represent them.
The song starts off like the first 30 seconds of “QUIRK” DON-PACHI with its robotic sounding intro, like revving engines, ending with a “Ready? Set, GO!” like A-Train’s theme, Faster to kick off the race. The song maintains a fast-paced beat, sounding like Faster but with MHA’s rock/electronic instrumentation. Speed is the name of the game, and so it should be one of the core feelings of this song, like Way Past Flash.
As the fight ends and the killing blow is dealt, the song starts to become Iida’s theme to reflect somberness. The winner may have survived the deadly ordeal, but now they have another burden to bear. 
FINAL THOUGHTS AND WORDS:
The creative juices for this one just FLOWED. I had a lot of fun making this one. Maybe it’s because it’s built on a potentially strong crossover, maybe it’s because I really wanted to put my ideas for character interaction onto text. Maybe because these characters have little in the way of abilities so it was easier to write for them.
Also, not going to lie, I genuinely questioned if A-Train really even had physical weaknesses. His heart transplant fixes the damages from his previous heart, but wouldn’t an overdose or abuse of Compound V still cause a heart attack? I can definitely see him trying to use more of it in order to remain the fastest and especially in the face of someone like Iida, young and fast. I don’t completely understand, and it’s very likely I'm doing something wrong, so if you do understand, let me know. :)
IDEAS THAT I HAD:
1. Starts at a hero convention between UA and Vought because the idea makes a lot of sense for a crossover or a charity race for black communities that got sponsored by Vought because A-Train wants to fix his image.
2. Shockwave flashbacks. Kid is also naive, a pushover.
3. Fight starts with A-Train killing someone like he did Robin, Iida gets disgusted and tries to stop A-Train.
4. Enter a subway tunnel or bullet train track and pass by a train to reference their naming schemes.
5. A-Train insults Tensei, Iida takes offense, and the fight is taken up a notch.
6. A-Train spills on his situation with Nate and his murder of Blue Hawk, Iida is empathetic but must stop A-Train.
7. Iida reacting to A-Train taking Compound V.
8. Recipro Turbo vs. Mudman reference, Blue Hawk murder reference
9. Damaged legs.
10. Plus Ultra Recipro Turbo Vs. Compound V overdose
11. Fights with punches, kicks, and maybe chops.
12. A-Train kills Iida the only way he should: like he killed Robin. However, he feels remorse because now, he killed a kid and his image is absolutely going to tank. 
13. Iida wins by Recipro Burst kick, and deeply apologizes for taking A-Train’s life before he could fully redeem himself. A-Train never got to apologize to his brother.
14. Running on water
15. Turn Dagobah stadium into a thunderdrome, or have a race around the city like in Cars 2.
16. Something involving a spy for future MHA vs. The Boys episodes.
THANK YOU AND I HOPE YOU ENJOYED THIS!
NEXT TIME…!
Groudon is facing off against its mortal enemy, Kyogre. There may be rain, but the sun is shining. 
Groudon starts to charge a Solar Beam, but then is pulled under and doesn’t fire the Solar Beam, causing the clouds to obscure the sun. Kyogre is also struggling to control the waves as they are going against its command, until a fist made of water deals an uppercut to Kyogre’s face, staggering Kyogre a bit. The fist of water lands meters in front of the Sea Basin Pokémon, and it morphs into Chaos. 
It is a time of crisis, and so Chaos has re-emerged.
There is too much water.
Chaos vs. Kyogre (Sonic the Hedgehog vs. Pokémon)
--------------------------------------------------
I like this idea! To be honest, I remember Brandon Yates making a track for this battle, Compound Engine, and it was a pretty solid track from him. Personally, I HATE the Boys, though I can see the hype around it AND I can also recognize the power they have. A-Train, as I see him, is supposed to garner sympathy as this profession athlete figure who could easily be replaced, but him giving half-felt speeches as an "apology" just writes him off as just another athlete using his fame to get away with ACTUAL murder. Very O.J. of him.
That said, as much as I would love for Iida to inadvertently kill A-Train from his own stupidity by taking Compound V, I think the alternate take in which A-Train murders Iida fits in better with the powerscaling, since Iida isn't really that powerful compared to other speedsters, especially when you include his engine limits.
As for the next fight, might I suggest you look into Brandon Yates other work, Primal Chaos?

Ok into the IzuOcha ask: I bet you have come across ships where "this girl deserve better" not sure if you read naruto but sasusaku is canon aka sasuke x sakura. Now, some fans of hers (all of them) say she is a poor thing and deserve better (wont enter here how untrue it is as she got her happy ending, its sasuke who is miserable) and ...I can say Izuocha can be the sasusaku of mha.
Will be canon? Sure.
Will be happy for Izu? NO. Not in canon. Not by Hori.
They had a cute meet. Sure, but it never developed more than that.
1) she calls him deku. Do I know Japanese? No. So I give a pass and maybe deku and dekiru are similar speaking. Ok. The issue here is not that...is how Ochako sees BK calling Izu deku with 100% hostility and ...head empty. Its sus. Its also not cute Izu accept the name deku.
2) she makes no attempt to know him. Grant Izu doesn't either but he does have an excuse as social cues are smth he struggles thanks to 10 years of abuse...amazing how that is smth Hori remembers to give to Izu😒
3) the LN, it paints their relationship so bad. I dont need to point out the obvious.
4) the aftermath of Ixu vs bk. Izu was punished for defending against his abuser, Iida didnt let him see his notes and treated him as a criminal...sure it was to be comical but falls flat as Iida wanted to commited murder (hated he punched Izu) byt Ochako didnt even approach Izu and asks whats up. She also blamed him. "This is a problem of both" and runs with that.
5) Mina and Aoayama have to tell her, and subsequence us, she likes Izu. Otherwise, we wouldn't guess. She made the decision to hide her feelings for Izu...and why? Is not as if she lost a big chance to win money by blushing to Izu.
6) I dont like how the girls in class A1 are taking Ocha's side here in relation to the ship. The movie where Izu meets Melissa...when Izu returns to class A1 the girls seems upset as if he did smth wrong...I find that unfair(I never saw the movie and have 0 desire to do so as BK is there. And sure that scene may have context...)
7) She never even attempt to know Izu. But she is ok in being Toga's blood bank. Togaochako may not be canon and she may have rejected Toga...but the point is not "Ochako wants to kiss Toga" is how Ochako makes no effort for Izu...but we are supposed to see her as this great love interest. In canon, she really isnt. It kills me how she makes 0 effort for Izu...didnt smile when she corned Izu with bk and others...didnt look happy to see him...but is willing to die for Toga. Like....does Izu has a love interest?
8) she called him plain...when she has a plain design. The things she says and does could have land her "mean girl" title
9)"you wont fight quirkless are you?" While I dont subscribe to "quirkless discrimination " as everyone does...I do think it makes sense for only quirked people to be heroes...so with that in mind, Ochako is somewhat saying is ok for Izu to break bones but fight quirkless is wierd? That is intersting to explore but would make her look bad...and by consequence bk and we know who Hori loves.
Not saying Ocha should do anything and everything for Izu...but this story only allows the shallow forms of "love"
Ocha and Izu blushed? Soulmates
Ocha and Izu gifted each other? When is the wedding.
I've answered an IzuOcha asked before so if you wanna take a look at that for more of an insight feel free to.
1. It actually used to irritate me that she called him Deku too BUT someone pointed out to me that Uraraka is from the Mie (?) prefecture and can tend to mix up the pronunciation of "Deku" and "Dekiru" due to her accent. So when she wants to say "Dekiru," it comes out sounding like "Dek'u." This person also said that it gives meaning to their relationship that Izuku decided to keep this name because of this and I actually do somewhat agree. I think Horiloshi's execution of this could have been better (show don't tell Hori), but I don't mind it as much as I used to.
2. I would actually say Uraraka does make a decent attempt to get to know him at least in the beginning. Sure her questions and conversations aren't super deep, but she goes out of her way to make conversation with him and get him to open up. She is only 15/16 too after all so I give her a lot of grace.
3. For my own sanity, I choose to ignore the light novels. If I read them I'll come out disliking 98% of the characters🙂
4. Yes this... Isn't great for either Iida or Uraraka. It actually feels like flat out character regression for Iida (done for a cheap laugh). Uraraka (and all of 1A including All Might and Aizawa) has a kind of warped view on Izuku and Bakugou's relationship. I don't think she's aware that their toxic relationship goes past rivalry, probably because Izuku never says anything bad about Bakugou and doesn't open up. I'm not defending what she says here because it was wrong, but she doesn't have the full story. If she did, her reaction would be very different (she is one of the few characters that will call Bakugou out, even if it isn't as harsh as it should be). I don't even think Horikoshi himself understands the power imbalance between Izuku and Bakugou, so it makes sense that his characters don't either.
5. So Uraraka does this because she doesn't want her feelings to get in the way of becoming a good hero. It's not a bad approach to her character in theory, but Horikoshi's execution of it is horrible (which is true for most of his characters). The problem isn't necessarily that she does this, the problem is a) there was nothing leading up to her having feelings for him past admiration it just... happened, b) there's really no explanation as to how simply having/accepting her feelings would get in the way, and c) it focuses way too much on her avoiding her feelings for Izuku than her actually growing as a hero; in trying to focus her away from Izuku Hori's centering her around him even more. In another author's hands, this could have actually been a decent arc, but oh well.
6. This scene actually isn't too serious. Yaoyorozu and Jirou aren't being malicious to Izuku, they're just teasing him. And they're very nice to Melissa (so is Uraraka) and get along with her well. I don't even think Uraraka was that jealous, maybe a bit envious if anything, and she wasn't upset. The movie doesn't focus on Bakugou too much (unlike that monstrosity of a second movie) so it's not a bad watch. I enjoyed it because we learn more about All Might's time in America and Izuku's friendship with Melissa is super cute🙂
7. I think it's just a different approach to Toga and Izuku as people. I'm not saying it's wrong or right, but I am saying approaching saving them in two different ways isn't outlandish. And she did stand up for him against am angry mob so I don't think it's right to say she didn't put in effort.
8. Plain isn't really an insult. True it's not exactly nice, but I wouldn't call it mean. She also had no idea of knowing he would see that footage.
9. Interesting🤔

**spoilers for BHNA season 6 (from episode 7-13)**
out of context reactions, a summary:
“what the fuck… what.”
“girl, you better be okay— oh, wHAT THE F—?!”
“i agree with the fanfic writers. if someone gave Deku a gun, this shit would’ve been over.”
[incomprehensible screeching]
“THAT’S MY SON! THAT’S MY FUCKING SON! aAAAAA!!!!”
“this is the sickest guy in all eternity. you, on the other hand—.”
[accidentally launches my remote into orbit] “SHOTO FUCKING TODOROKI???”
“suneater, my favorite son, you look so awkward at all times<33”
“they show my favorite boy and i can’t even see him fight?!! …i’m so sad, bois.”
“bRO, WHERE DID YOU—? nah, fuck it. he’s just weird like that.”
“deku,,, this is the worst steven universe cosplay i’ve ever seen. i’m so sorry.”
“i would, in fact, spend forever crying over my other favorite son, Bakugo Katsuki, and his attempts for amends. i think i will, actually.”
“bro, i’M GONNA CRY.”
[wordless screaming]
“mans is going feral.”
“the use of biting in this season— hell, this entire series is insane. honestly? i’m for it. biting is the most feral choice. it really shows their desperation to survive that they’ll revert to their most feral state. in conclusion, i think Deku should start biting off fingers as a power move from now on:))”
“…so like. how’d you lose your nose.”
“yeah, he’s saying a lot of words. but like. i have serious questions. like, how does being evil correlate with a lack of smell??”
“…is it a ‘hear no evil’, ‘see no evil’-type thing. bc he’s sure speaking a lot.”
“if i had a nickel for every noseless villain i’ve seen, i’d have two nickels.“
“…i feel like i’m witnessing two men that see this ragtag crew as a found family and they’re having to accept that their daughter has grown up. and it feels extra awkward bc i think only half the crew thinks like this. but like… maybe this is normal, ya know?”

Tumblr media
KATSUKI BAKUGOU
either you're with me or you're not, there's no in between. this man gets jealous
and no not the [sulks in the corner crying] jealous I mean the "HAH?! I BET IM BETTER THAN HIM AT THAT" jealous, usual katsuki
the character you simp for can cook? Katsuki will cook you ten meals a day to prove to you he's better than said character
the character has an amazing body? he'll walk around shirtless in the dorms when you're around just to show off his body
who cares if Aizawa might put him in detention for not wearing a shirt? he's got a dignity to uphold and no amount of detention hours can pull him back lmao
SHOTO TODOROKI
definitely gets competitive and not the Katsuki kind of competitive
you simp for Sasuke? he will give you a list of a hundred reasons why Naruto is better.
you simp for Oikawa? "I think Tsukishima is better. He made it to nationals."
you think Levi is hot? "We should call him 'Lev' now that he lost his 'I'. Lmao I think Jean is a better partner for you."
no matter how great the character you simp for is, he will mention another character and explain why the character he chose is better
long story short, just don't mention anything about simping for characters unless you want to have a bad day
he still babie tho <3 will watch your fave anime and read your fave manga with you, just don't mention anything about characters being simp-worthy
DENKI KAMINARI
mf simps with you
nah he doesn't get jealous cause he knows they're just fictional characters and he's the real thing (sounding pretty ironic there, don't ya think?)
"DENKI DID YOU SEE THE NEW AOT EPISODE??!! WE FINALLY GOT EREH PUTTING ON HIS JACKET ANIMATED"
"SHUT THE FUCK UP IM TRYING TO SAVOR THE MOMENT" he yells back, a feet away from his TV as his jaw hangs at how Eren looks.
"ugh I'd let Kaneki eat me." you groan, pausing the anime to look at your boyfriend who's smirking lazily at you, fist bumping you. "you and me, babe."
"I don't understand why girls in black clover simp for Asta so much." You frown to which your boyfriend groans at in agreement. "Exactly! Like Captain Yummy out here serving us mommy milkers for free and the girls don't bat an eye at him."
"babe on three, tell me your first anime crush." you grab onto his knee, shaking it to get his attention. "alright, bet." he nods.
"1..."
"2..."
"3!"
"Usui Takumi!"
"WE REALLY ARE MEANT TO BE!" he yells, pulling you into a bone crushing hug.
TENYA IIDA
doesn't understand why you do
"holy shit Eren's hot!"
"Why would you think that? He's a mass m*rderer."
"Babe you think Kaneki can like...get it?"
"The cannibal?"
"Fuck, I'd eat Sukuna's fingers too, fo sho."
"He didn't help Itadori save Junpei and left him to die. He laughed while he rejected Itadori's request. He also killed Itadori without hesitation once and I don't think he'll bat an eye for you."
"...Never mind Sukuna. Have you seen Megumi's father?"
"Hon his list of crimes are assassinations, mutilation, attempted murder, attempted child-"
"Okay I'm done with your shit just shut up."
EIJIROU KIRISHIMA
he's the exact opposite of Shoto, he'll definitely back you up.
give him ten reasons why you think Kageyama would be an amazing boyfriend and he'll give you an additional twenty more.
he's actually up to date with all the stuff about what's going on with the anime, and if he comes across a new update, he'll text you the link
whenever he finds merchandise of the character you like, he immediately buys it just to see your excited face <3
"Eij, so there's this convention thing about that anime I'm obsessed with and-"
"Sure, what time?"
"What."
"Like what time are we going? I'll need to know so I can clear up my schedule before hand."
he'll let you do his make up and wear the character's costume without a second thought just so you can live out your fangirl dreams <333

class 1A x reader (platonic) that reader has a personality like 067 (sae-byeok) from squid game?
btw I love the way you write!! 💕
A/N: First off, thank you so much for motivating me to finally finish watching Squid Game! I'm currently on the last episode and it's so good! And thank you so much for the kind words, I'm so glad you enjoy my writing style! I tried to cover as much of Class 1A as I could, feel free to request again if you'd like more with a certain character.
For those who haven't seen Squid Game yet, Sae-Byeok's/the reader's personality is basically very cold and distrustful, especially around new people, but cares a lot for those close to them.
~~~~~
From day one in UA, you were one of the kids who kept your distance
Many of your classmates saw nothing terribly wrong with this as you were hardly the only loner in the class
However, as the year went on, many couldn't help but notice that as even Bakugou and Todoroki started making friends, you made a conscious effort to keep anyone from getting too close
Let's be honest, both the Bakusquad and Dekusquad have tried to befriend on multiple occasions, one because they're the class sweethearts (who sometimes attempt murder), and one because they already forced one local self-isolater to tolerate them, why not another?
You on the other hand had no intentions of making friends(like that works out for anyone in this class). You turned down any invitations to hang out, avoided pairing up with anyone on a regular basis for training, and offered little-to-no details on your life in most conversations
But like anyone, fear of death opens you up quite a bit and unfortunately, that's something you face fairly regularly in this class
Once they find out about it's mainly an issue of trust, they become a lot more understanding, so to speak
Like before, you might get bombarded with requests from a dozen different classmates to hang out and get to know each other, but now it's more little things they do to show they care
Midoriya offers you his notes on your quirk and Iida/Momo gently remind you that you're always welcome to study with them when you seem frustrated with schoolwork
Kirishima and Bakugou let you know when they plan on getting in extra training, just in case you wanted to as well
Satou silently leaves a slice of cake or a cookie in front of you
This has just turned into me needing to feel accepted and loved🙃
If you do end up getting closer to some of the class and showing them that caring side, they are absolutely touched
Ok, for some specifics
You probably end up getting along well with like Ojiro, Koda, Shouji, Tokoyami, and Jirou, since you're all a lot more reserved
If you open up to them, they'll act pretty cool about the whole thing, but make sure to thank you for trusting them
NGL, Hagakure and Mina know they're the complete opposite of you and will probably back off a lot when they find out about your trust issue, but also probably cry if you ever open up to them, even if it's just something like starting a conversation on your own
Uraraka, Asui, and Momo are definitely extra sweet with you and if you open up to them, you can tell they're trying to not make a big deal out of it, but they just end up beaming they're so happy
A little off topic but you're probably one of Aizawa's favorite kids. This man just has a habit of adopting quiet kids with troubled pasts/trust issues, so you are not going to be an exception
Let's face it though, no one comes out of this class without any friends, so chances are you'll find at least a few you can count on

DFO Week Day 3: “If you’re not with me, then you’re my enemy.”
Something is wrong with Deku. Something’s changed. He’s not the hero he should be.
Katsuki works his fingers, opening and closing his hands as he stares at the TV.
The headline reads “Izuku Midoriya aka Japanese hero Deku wanted for Mass Murder.”
Katsuki won’t believe it, he can’t believe it. Up until now, there hasn’t been any word in the news about Deku since he left, and he hasn’t been involved in any big flashy crimes since he “joined” his father. Only the heroes and his class had even known that Izuku wasn’t on their side any longer.
But this?
The news that Deku was a traitor had devastated everyone around them. Some, in his class were sure it was a trick, another stupid attempt from Deku to solve everything by himself, but then he didn’t come back. It’s been weeks since then.
After everything they went through together, losing Izuku was just too much. Katsuki doesn’t think he’s ever seen All Might so resigned.
He and Deku that were the only ones that knew the truth. That Deku’s “turn” was just for show; All a ploy to make it so that All for One would believe that Deku had betrayed them all.  
On some level, he still feels that it was necessary to keep the truth from everyone, so that their reactions to Deku’s betrayal were genuine.
Now, he isn’t so sure.
A few students walk into the common room. He can feel their stares on the back of his head as he looks at the TV screen.
“So, you have seen.” Says Iida.
Katsuki huffs out a breath and turns around.
It’s Iida, Todoroki, and Kirishima. The rest are likely somewhere else, avoiding him.
“Do you really think it’s true?” Todoroki asks as he holds up his phone with the same headline.
Katsuki shoots him a look, and starts walking past them towards the dorms.
“You have to answer.” Says Kirishima.
“No, I don’t.” Katsuki bites back.
Then, Kirishima steps forwards and shoves him by his shoulders into the nearest chair. Katsuki trips over his feet as he falls into it.
He looks up at his best friend and finds his eyes staring down at him, red with rage.  
Katsuki swallows. This was something he never expected, Kirishima’s anger at him. He should’ve known though, Kirishima is too loyal. Too caring. He shouldn’t kept the fact that Deku was a double agent a secret from him. He hopes he doesn’t hate him.
God, he hopes he doesn’t hate him.
It had all come to a head when they thought they had found Deku again, and somehow of all people, Uraraka had found Deku somewhere within the walls of one of All for One’s hideouts. Deku had fought back, of course he had to, to keep up appearances. But Uraraka must’ve seen something in his eyes because as soon as she came back to school she shook the truth out of Katsuki right in front of their entire class.
Most didn’t take it well, as expected, but he swore them all to silence and convinced them that the heroes couldn’t know, that All Might couldn’t know, and that even all of them knowing was more of a risk. 
In the end, they’d agreed to keep quiet, with varying degrees of agreeability, but then from the back of the room, Kirishima had shot him a look, so dark and so untrusting and so un-Kirishima like that it had given Katsuki pause, and made him wonder if he really was doing the right thing.
Kirishima’s loyalty was just as unbreakable as himself. He never should have lied to him like that.
“Answer.” Kirishima demands again, “Do you think Midoryia could do this?”
“No,” says Katsuki firmly. “Listen I know Deku, he wouldn’t do something like this. The news is just wrong!”
“I know, Deku.” Kirishima repeats with venom, “They guy who, in the span of a few months went rouge, off by himself and learned that All for One is his father.” He emphasizes as he stares down at Katsuki. “Isn’t it possible Deku might actually be a traitor, a triple agent?
“You say he’s still on our side, but can you be really sure he isn’t tricking you?”
Katsuki turns his face away from him. The truth is that he never wanted to consider it. There was no way Deku could go bad, but it’s true too much has happened too fast. And right now Deku is in the hand of the worst manipulator in history, in the darkest of places he could possibly be. He shouldn’t’ve listened to the nerd when he said he was fine, should’ve pushed him harder, maybe roughed him up a bit. Maybe then, they wouldn’t be in the situation they are right now.
“So?” Kirishima asks.
“What?”
“What if it’s true, and Deku is gone?”
Katsuki stands up from his chair and looks Kirishima in the eyes. “I’ll deal with it,” he says solemnly.
--- Two Days Later ---
Buildings lie crumpled in the streets, and screams are amplified by the walls of the valley city.
Katsuki looks down on the town as heroes in brightly colored costumes flutter through the streets, trying to save as many people as possible. He knows it won’t be enough.
He feels him there before he sees him. Energy crackles in the air as something lands on the ground behind him.
The wind whistles in Katsuki's ears. 
“Is it fuckin’ true?” Katsuki asks out to the wind, then he turns and faces Deku and is greeted with an unnerving sight.
Deku is standing there, standing rim rod straight with his hands held behind his back, looking at Katsuki with a discerning expression. He doesn’t answer but just blinks back at Katsuki.
Katsuki furrows his brows. “Well?” He demands walking towards the nerd and getting up in his face.
Deku looks down at the accusing finger and merely moves it to the side as he walks past him to the cliff edge.
He waits for a moment then, “Why try to stop it?” Deku asks, “You know there’s no way you can really win right?” His voice is flat, barely containing any emotion at all. 
“That’s your dambass Dad talking, Deku.” Katsuki says.
Deku bristles at the mention of his father, almost like a twitch. Then, it’s like a puppet with its wires cut, and the tension in his shoulders drops. He flexes his hands at his sides and lightning jumps between his fingertips.
He turns to Katsuki, his face morphed into a hate-filled imitation of Deku’s face. “You can’t stop this,” he grits through his teeth and then turns his face away again. 
“Fucking think about what you’re doing!” Katsuki demands, “You’re really just going to give up on your dream?"
“If you’re not with me, then you’re my enemy.” Deku’s seethes.
“ONLY A SHITTY VILLAIN THINKS LIKE THAT!” he shouts back.
Katsuki stares at the back of Deku’s head as he refuses to turn to face him. With measured movements he points his gauntlet at Deku, “I will do what I have to.”
“You will try.”
They launch themselves at each other.

Tumblr media
💥 It’s known Bakugou knows no fucking challenge on that app.
💥 Except for that buss it challenge. He’s keeping tabs on yo ass.
💥 His fyp is comprised of prisontok (thank mtha for this), mortalkombat edits, and recommendations for shoujo mangas DC comics.
💥 He already knows the drill, you teach him the dance, he does it with no care, you post it.
💥 This one is fairly easy… until you attempt to press him
💥 He runs up on you, chest puffed up, arms tense and hanging straight. That intimidation stance.
💥 “What you tryna do? We can tussle right now wassup.” Now you gotta deal with him pressing you as you finish the dance.
💥 When he realizes you’re laughing, he just sucks his teeth before lightly pushing you.
💥 “Why am I even dating you?”
💥 The biggest tsundere simp on the earth.
💥 He loves you so much but you always test him.
Tumblr media
🥦 Umm All Might edits runs his fyp.
🥦 The occasional analytic reports on recent and past villain attacks are there too.
🥦 Only gets a smidge of alt tiktok so it ain’t that boring.
🥦 Doesn’t know the dance either but he’ll do it just for you <3
🥦 Never expects you to fucking buck at him tho.
🥦 Mans flinch mad hard omg.
🥦 He removes his hands from his face when he hears you laugh and continue the dance.
🥦 Now he stopped, looking at you with the saddest puppy eyes.
🥦 “Why did you flinch at me baby?” He’s just standing in the frame all pouty and shit.
🥦 “Prince(ss), please don’t do that again. You honestly scared me.” He walks off in the middle of the video, his fluffy duck house slippers squeaking with every step.
🥦 Go say you’re sorry right now 🧍🏽‍♀️
Tumblr media
⛑ Crimson Riot edits duhh
⛑ But it’s a mixture of Bakugou’s and Todoroki’s with a sprinkle of popular dances down his stream.
⛑ Has Ski Mask edits as well
⛑ Still, he doesn’t know the dance at all
⛑ Baby boy is so sweet cause the second you buck at him...he just plants one straight on your lips thinking you went in for a kiss.
⛑ Shocked, bamboozled, frozen, he really kissed you as you tried to buck him?
⛑ Mans continued the dance like you’re not wide-mouthed behind him.
⛑ “Bro, I know you did not just kiss me when I tried to buck you.” The whole badman vibes just dissipate from the air, he smiling at you like it was cool.
⛑ “Babe,” he whined. “I thought you just wanted a smooch.”
⛑ Seeing you mad, he just grabs you up and launches more kisses on your face.
⛑ You tried to look hard for the video only for him to soften you up quickly.
⛑ At least you got cuddles after.
Tumblr media
🩹 His tiktok is filled with funny ass videos
🩹 They always come up on his fyp before going famous. Hence why his comments be having 30k likes (they funny as well)
🩹 Has the best cooking tutorials in his favorites that he makes to impress you.
🩹 Already knows the dance so you don’t need to teach him.
🩹 Y’all both tried to press each other with giant smiles on your faces before starting a round of play fighting.
🩹 “Can’t fuck with you no mo.” He turns to you before continuing the dance.
🩹 Alternating lyrics and shii...being the baddest couple to step in the game.
🩹 He wraps his arms around you before throwing peace signs to the camera at the end.
🩹 The coolest boyfriend award goes to this king.
Tumblr media
⚡️ How...how is he in every part of tiktok
⚡️ Straightok, alt tiktok, beantok, frogtok. You describe to him the video and he either knows it or he can find it in seconds.
⚡️ If Pandora’s Box opened and escaped into somebody’s account, it would most likely be Denki’s.
⚡️ He did the challenge with Bakugou before but it ended in flames...but he won’t decline to do it wit you
⚡️ Why y’all buck each other and ended up hitting your foreheads?
⚡️ Spent the rest of the video rubbing your forehead while Denki laughing.
⚡️ “Why tf your shit so hard? Built like damn cement” you glared at him as he laughed even harder.
⚡️ “I shock my own brain everyday. I think my skull hardened as a result”
⚡️ The next day, you’re seen walking around with your forehead on swole.
⚡️ On the bright side, you get forehead kisses every 5 minutes.
Tumblr media
🔮 There ain’t no Eraserhead edits so he makes them himself.
🔮 All his fyp got some led light show going on. Every. Fucking. Video.
🔮 But they’re all good vibes, great music, and nice ass comment section
🔮 Occasional gaming videos come up because he follows some twitch streamers on there
🔮 Doesn’t know the beatbox/junebugg challenge. You woke him out of bed to do it.
🔮 You’re vibing in the video before you buck at him.
🔮 He didn’t budge. He stopped doing the dance altogether to stand up and just glare you down.
🔮 He out here in his cow print moo moo pants and you do this shit to him?
🔮 Now you’re nervous, flickering your eyes to him as you continued the video dancing.
🔮 The minute the sound ends he stalks off back to bed. Using all the sheets to cover him.
🔮 Have fun sleeping in the cold. Just kidding, he can’t sleep without cuddling you but just remember he is mad.
Tumblr media
👓 ...you think he knows tiktok?
👓 Thought it was slang for the actual clock app.
👓 Got it to see what the hype was about but doesn’t even bother to make an actual account.
👓 It’s really just the generic shit on there.
👓 So he’s excited to do a dance with you even though he only knows the tinman.
👓 Umm...failed to do the actual dance. It gives 60-year-old white man on a tropical cruise.
👓 And then you buck at him.
👓 All movements stop. He justs staring at you, his glasses hiding his actual eyes.
👓 The air around you feels real cold. Your premonition telling you to electric slide out of the room but nah, you continue to dance. The man, who tried to commit murder at the age of 16, just staring at you stoned face.
👓 The second he opened his mouth, you DIPPED out of the room, leaving your phone running and Iida just standing confused.
👓 Turns out, he wasn’t trying to end your bloodline, he was just confused if that was a dance step he missed.

BnHA Chapter 310: A Tale of Two Kacchans
Previously on BnHA: Flashback!Deku was all, “hey, you know what sounds like a good decision? Abandoning my studies at the safest place in the country so that the bad guy who wants to find me and kill me has literally nothing standing in his way of doing that.” All Might was all, “I fucking knew you were going to say some bullshit like that so whatever, but I’M COMING WITH YOU and I’m also going to invite the Hawksquad to come with us, mostly so that I can steal Jeanist’s car.” Jeanist was all, “okay fine you can borrow my car, All Might, but only if you wear jeans.” All Might was all, “okay sure” and he wore jeans and also sunglasses and a leather jacket and it was pretty rad. Anyway so now they’re out there fighting crime and hunting down the LoV and stuff, and absolutely none of it is going to end well, I’m just letting you know now. But I guess we’ll let them enjoy it while it lasts.
Today on BnHA: Horikoshi is all “happy belated Kacchan’s Birthday makeste, here’s the flashback you really wanted at long last,” and proceeds to pull the old vestige flashback out of the kitchen drawer and upend its contents all over my Friday afternoon without the slightest bit of warning. OFA III is all “WHAT’S UP I’M JUST SOME GUY, HELLO,” and okay?? Hello yourself. OFA II, on the other hand, is all, “okay yeah I have different hair and stuff, but I’m like 98% sure I’m either Bakugou or his goddamn twin, I mean look at me.” Which, yeah. I looked, and he really is though you guys. Anyway though, so he and OFA II basically just showed up in the First (who goes by Yoichi now)’s prison cell one day all “HEY THERE, WE’RE HERE TO SAVE YOU, APPARENTLY, ALTHOUGH WE SEEM REAL CONFUSED ABOUT IT TBH BUT HEY.” And so they saved him, and Yoichi was all “hey nice to meet you do you want to join my super-exclusive Saving The World Club”, and so they did, and then the chapter ended lol. I would have said yes too.
oh my sweet lord?? I didn’t realize we were getting a color page this week, but LOOK AT THIS
Tumblr media
this could have been a fucking volume cover. I’m almost mad that it wasn’t, lol but I mean fkldjslklk just look at it??! Horikoshi out here spoiling us and making sure we’re well fed since next week the manga is on break for Golden Week. well this will certainly help to tide me over. hot damn look at those colors
so now it’s raining on some dumb building in the middle of somewhere
Tumblr media
is this where the Hawksquad has set up camp for the night? or are we actually cutting back to the League? that’d be unexpected (but not unwelcome)
ffff nevermind dammit it’s just more random citizens under attack
Tumblr media
feels like this is the third or fourth scene we’ve had of civilians being Under Attack since this arc started. I mean no offense, but I think we get it by this point. it’s the end times, etc. etc. we’re well aware that things have gone to shit
so apparently these two guys are facing off against a girl with a mutant quirk. and she’s telling them that she’s not a monster and she was just scared, oh shit. I believe her btw, you can see it in her face
but these assholes don’t believe her at all and they’re pointing what looks to be some type of support item gun at her
Tumblr media
you know what’s interesting, is that this kind of random quirk discrimination is the exact kind of thing PLF and the like were swearing up and down they’d put a stop to with their glorious revolution. it’s almost like those guys were completely full of shit. huh
so yeah, fortunately for this woman someone is stepping in and intervening before she can be blasted to bits by this trigger-happy asshole for absolutely no fucking reason
Tumblr media
looks like a hero actually stepped in and saved her?? but no that can’t be, heroes are the ones that ruin everything and make everything worse, or so I understand. lol where did all of this sarcasm come from out of nowhere dlkdsjlk I’m sorry guys I just suddenly got swept up in the hypocrisy of certain people’s philosophies out of the blue idek
anyway so it is of course Deku saving her, and now he’s trying to talk thess jerks down all diplomatically instead of just kicking their asses, which is certainly a choice
MOTHERFUCKER I’M
Tumblr media
fucking impossible to miss the real world parallels here. shit. this woman nearly died for her crime of Walking While Having A Mutant Quirk huh. and meanwhile Deku is just letting this guy scurry away and even letting him keep that fucking bazooka of his, like, ????
fucking hell she’s crying!!
Tumblr media
lmao this chapter is actively trying to make me mad now huh. that’s some genuine righteous anger I’m feeling on behalf of this fictional ferret lady whom I only met two minutes ago. girl you are not the one who needs to explain herself here!! you didn’t do anything wrong holy fuck. everything about this situation sucks so much
fkKJKLMMMHFGH
Tumblr media
“I’m sorry I made you upset, please enjoy this panel of tiny!floating!Deku hefting this lady’s massive beach umbrella up for her like the fucking gentleman he is” well okay then thank you sir
and JUST LIKE THAT the tension is broken and I’m entirely incapable of taking the rest of this conversation seriously because Deku’s trying to be all calming and authoritative, but now the illusion has been broken because I know he only comes up to like her knees
Tumblr media
“well thanks again for saving me young man. I’ll leave you to it, I’m sure you’ve got more important things to do like protecting your Lucky Charms cereal from all those greedy children”
oh hey All Might
Tumblr media
you wouldn’t have just let that guy with the bazooka just walk away to commit more attempted murders would you?? man
OH MY GOD DEKU IS IMMEDIATELY DITCHING HIM AGAIN
Tumblr media
I ~CANNOT STAY HERE~ oh, well, sorry to keep you detained I know you’re busy
dfslkjlk oh my god
Tumblr media
fucking told you Deku didn’t pack any food lol. it’s literally all notebooks in that bag you guys. he couldn’t just leave them all in his dorm room when he left, because what if someone tried to read them and came across one of the pages where he absentmindedly doodled Kacchan’s name surrounded by little tiny hearts oh gosh
AWWWWW
Tumblr media
I needed this Horikoshi. thank you for this wholesome soul-cleansing interaction after all of that bullshit earlier
so now Deku’s climbing up this tall building to eat his lunchbox more dramatically. Tokoyami would be proud
and Banjou is saying that society right now is just like in The Good Old Days (read: bad old days) when quirk society was even more of a mess than it is now
Tumblr media
which is exactly how AFO likes it, no doubt
so now Deku’s having a whole conversation with Banjou seemingly out loud lol, weird. and he’s basically saying that they don’t have any clues as to where TomurAFO and the League are hiding right now, and none of the Tartarus escapees they’ve found knew anything either
mmmmmfmhm, marge simpson noises
Tumblr media
but you think you can?? you, alone, by yourself?? you think you stand a chance?? I just need you to think this all through a bit more kid
Deku it is NOT JUST YOUR RESPONSIBILITY ALONE, PLEASE REALIZE THIS ALREADY. YOU MAY BE THE CHOSEN ONE, BUT EVEN THE CHOSEN ONE NEEDS HIS FRIENDS BY HIS SIDE GODDAMMIT
Tumblr media
and of course my pleading is all in vain, because he’s a fictional character who can’t fucking hear me, and also because I’m pretty sure there’s only one character who is going to actually be able to get him to hear reason here. I’ve been saying it, and I’ll keep saying it lol. so until then I guess I’ll just have to be patient
anyway so it appears we’re segueing into another flashback??? HORIKOSHI PLEASE GIVE ME SOME BAKUCRUMBS BEFORE THE TWO WEEK BREAK, I BEG YOU
dlKSDJLFKWJELKGHSLGKLEKJLFKHLGK

Just had a thought that will not leave my head - Aldera Dickhead: *shows up to heckle Izuku & Bakugou* / Iida: "Hello!" / ADH: "Where the fuck did you come from?" / Iida: "You are aware, of course, that unlicensed public Quirk use is illegal!" / ADH: "Wha-?" / Iida: "So it’s quite fortunate that my Quirk only affects my legs!" *punches him into next week*
RIP THOUGH
Also Iida is not one to talk about this we all remember the attempted vigilante murder era.
But also yeah all the class is down to throw hands for those two

Danger First
Chapter 5
@pocketramblr :3
The day started off well. Really, it did. Izuku got up on time, still filled with warm fuzziness from the time he spent with his friends (friends!) the afternoon before, had a good breakfast, left early enough to catch an earlier train, saw an interesting hero fight, and then...
He was hit with a wave of nausea as he caught sight of the crowd outside UA's gates. Was it a mob? An attack? Terrorists?
... Reporters?
Yeah, those were cameras and microphones. But why was a crowd of reporters making him feel this way?
Maybe they were terrorists disguised as reporters. Or, maybe Izuku had picked up some paranoia to go with his anxiety. How fun.
If they were real reporters, they were probably here about All Might. Him cutting back on active hero work to teach had been big news.
Ughhhh. What should he do? Whoever they were, they weren't likely to leave. He didn't want to walk through them, though. What if they were dangerous? (And even if they weren't, he didn't want reporters looking at him, asking him questions. What would he say to them?)
He bit his lip and watched the crowd from around his chosen corner. Why did he have to be so wimpy and timid? He was a hero student, now. He should be better. Braver.
Oh! There was Iida!
He scuttled over to his friend.
"Ah! Midoriya! You're early today! Few people arrive at school at the same time I do!"
"Y-yeah! I managed to catch the earlier train today, so..." He looked back at the crowd of reporters. Maybe reporters. Maybe terrorists. "I think, maybe we should wait to go in as a group, though. I mean, it'll be more efficient than trying to fight through those reporters one at a time, right?"
"An excellent idea, Midoriya!" exclaimed Iida, waving his hands enthusiastically. "It's very admirable of you, to always be thinking about how to help others."
"W-well," said Izuku, blushing. It wasn't untrue, but it also wasn't the whole story. "I mean, I don't... It's more that they kind of freak me out a bit? The reporters..."
Iida nodded sagely. "There are heroes like that, too. Are you planning on going underground, then?"
There was a certain amount of appeal to underground heroics, but he was supposed to be All Might's successor. Then again, if One for All never worked properly for him and Mr. Yagi asked for it back... Quirk or not, Izuku was here, now, in UA, in the hero course, and Mr. Yagi had said he could be a hero without a quirk.
"I haven't really decided yet. But UA teaches all hero course students the three main branches of heroics, so we don't really have to choose a specialty until later, and even then there are heroes like Sir Nighteye who blur the lines, right?"
"Yes, it's one of the things that make UA such a superior institution!" chortled Monoma.
"Ah, Monoma! I agree! It is important for all heroes to be aware of the work their colleagues do, and to be well-rounded individuals!"
Monoma!?
"Um," said Izuku. "When did you get here?"
"Just a minute ago," said Monoma. "I was looking for a way around these savages when I overheard your conversation. Really, it's a shame that UA allows such rabble to prevent students from entering. If only there was something they could do..."
"I'm afraid I must disagree," said Iida. "Freedom of the press is exceedingly important for the function of society!"
Monoma looked slightly alarmed. "I don't mean to say it isn't, it's just-" he gestured at the gates, "-we can't get in. The other entrances are like this, too. It's aggravating."
"There... might be another way in," said Iida, after a moment.
"Oh?"
"Yes, my brother told me about a hidden entrance that was here when he attended UA. I suppose... I suppose these would be the right circumstances to use it."
"Lead the way, then, Iida," said Monoma.
Iida nodded stiffly. "We should wait and see if any of our classmates would like to come with us."
Several of their classmates did want to come with them, including Uraraka, Asui (who was still a little under the weather), Tokoyami (Dark Shadow was not a fan of flashing lights), and Hagakure. They were also joined by a couple of 1-B students, a cadre of business course kids, and a pink haired support course girl who seemed very interested in Iida's legs, much to his flustered confusion.
Kacchan did not join them, much to Izuku's dismay, instead choosing to bulldoze his way through the ranks of reporters, nearly giving Izuku a heart attack when he body-checked a man with blue-white hair.
At this point, their group was becoming rather large and noticeable, and Iida was getting antsy about the time, so off they went.
Iida led them to what appeared to be an entirely unnoteworthy piece of wall and knocked. There was a pause just long enough to make Iida start to sweat, and then the wall opened, revealing Midnight- Ms. Kayama!
"Oh?" she said, clearly delighted. "Chibiida using the top secret teacher's entrance? Has high school done what we couldn't? Are you finally loosening up?"
Chibiida.
Chibiida.
CHIBIIDA.
First: how? Why? Iida was over ten centimeters taller than Izuku! Secondly: Iida was never going to recover from this.
"That- that's not it! At all! I am simply attempting to help my fellow students enter the school without being harassed by reporters, Ms. Kayama!"
"You can still call me big sis Nemuri, you know."
"I refuse! It would be inappropriate of me as a student!"
Ms. Kayama sighed. "Well, you aren't wrong about those reporters. They can be a pain. So, just this once, let me welcome you kids to the forbidden environs of the staff area!" She made a grandiose gesture with her arm. "And it's all thanks to Chibiida here."
Iida started muttering about propriety and rules.
Izuku had the feeling it would be a long day.
.
"All right, Hikage, in your professional opinion-"
"What does building inspecting have to do with anything?"
"What?" said Nana. "I didn't say anything about building inspecting."
"You asked for my professional opinion."
"Yes?" said Nana, already dreading where this would go.
"I was a vigilante. For the purposes of money, I was a professional, licensed building inspector."
"I thought you were a professional hermit," said En.
"I was an amateur hermit. You don't get paid for that."
En blinked. "I can't believe people let you into their buildings."
"There were a few times-"
Nana decided to table the question of how neither she nor En had known Hikage was a building inspector. "Okay, fine. Forget the professional part. In your opinion, what was going on with that one reporter guy?"
"Oh," said Hikage. "He's definitely planning a murder."
"A murder!" exclaimed Yoichi.
"Yes, and probably of someone close to Ninth."
"Why didn't you say something?" demanded Yoichi, attempting to lift the taller man up by the front of his shirt and failing.
"Because there's not much we can do about it?"
"Just because you're right doesn't mean I have to like it!" He spun on his heel and stalked up to the silent and incomplete ghost of Toshinori. "It had better not be you, do you hear me? Don't you dare pull an Obi-Wan on poor, sweet Izuku!"
"Does anyone know what he's talking about?" asked Nana.
"Not really," admitted Banjo.
.
"Today," said Mr. Aizawa, after he finished passing out feedback from the battle trial, "you'll pick a class president."
All around Izuku, his classmates threw their hands into the air, eager for the chance to show off their leadership skills.
Izuku kept his hand down. It wasn't that he didn't want to stand out or do the work! It was just... between training after school with Mr. Yagi and Aizawa and trying to get his anxiety under control, he didn't think he'd do a very good job.
.
Yoichi started disappearing his "Izuku for President" banners.
.
Iida, though... Iida would do well, Izuku thought. Look at him, organizing everyone into a vote.
"You're not running, Midori?" asked Hagakure.
"N-no, haha, I have too many other commitments to do a good job, I think."
"That's too bad! I would have voted for you."
There was a smattering of agreement, mostly from Iida and Uraraka. Izuku started blushing.
"R-really? Why?"
("Strawberry," someone whispered.)
"Well, you helped me out during the entrance exam, and you were pretty cool during training yesterday." More agreement. "But if you're not running, I guess I'll pick Monoma. He did get rid of the purple creep."
"Ahahaha, yes, I am clearly the superior candidate!" crowed Monoma, standing up and putting his foot on his chair to pose.
"But his personality's really weird, which is why you would have been my first choice, Midoriya."
"I think Iida would be a good choice!" said Uraraka, raising her hand. "He's super organized and he helped a bunch of us get past the reporters this morning."
More general agreement. Then Todoroki cleared his throat. Everyone looked at him.
"Yaoyorozu," he said.
That was it.
"Good point," agreed Jirou.
.
"A TIE?!"
.
As the only one who hadn't voted for one of the three in the tie, Aoyama was forced to be the tiebreaker. This was done as dramatically as humanly possible.
Yaoyorozu was now president of class 1-A.
This led to a ferocious battle between Monoma and Iida that Iida won by a single vote. Monoma was promptly chosen as class treasurer. Just in time for their other classes.
.
"Those who possess forbidden knowledge should stay together," said Tokoyami gravely as he sat down with Uraraka, Iida, and Izuku.
"Are you talking about the staff area?" asked Asui, who slid in after him.
"Indeed," intoned Tokoyami gravely. "The dark path we have all walked-"
"Fumi is just bad at asking people to be his friends!"
"Dark Shadow!"
Izuku almost started crying into his rice. Having friends was so great.
"I'll be your friend!" said Izuku.
"Me, too!" said Uraraka, pumping a fist.
"Ah," said Tokoyami, coughing into a fist. "I am sure we will be great companions in the darkness of the coming days."
Speaking of darkness... Izuku couldn't help but feel uneasy about... something. He had been ever since seeing those reporters.
"So, Midori, is your hair full of secrets?"
"Wh-what?"
"Don't listen to her! She's just being silly! Like a little sister."
"It's what you always say about that actor you like! His hair is fluffy because it's full of secrets!"
"So, you and Dark Shadow are like brother and sister?" asked Midoriya, changing the subject.
The conversation segued into discussion of their families, and just when Iida was extolling the virtues of his older brother, Izuku's unease spiked. He dropped his chopsticks.
"Is something wrong?" asked Uraraka.
"I... don't know? It just feels like something bad is going to-"
The school alarm promptly went off.
.
"Wow!" said Kirishima. "Iida can do entrances and exits! Manly!"
.
"Wow," said Banjo, "I guess they picked the right guy for the job, after all. He can find entrances and exits! More than my class vice president ever did..."
"Are you copying the small red child?" asked Hikage.
"What?"
"Never mind."
.
"Today's heroics class will be focused on how to fall safely and other basic combat techniques. Before we begin, although you may practice these techniques on your own, outside of class, if you want to spar with others, you need adult supervision until you reach a level where I'm satisfied you won't seriously injure yourself or others by mistake. Now, firstly..."
.
"Mr. Aizawa? Is- um. Was it really just the press breaking in earlier?"
It was time for his first special quirk training with Aizawa, and he should be asking what they were doing today (especially since Aizawa had him change out of his gym uniform and back to his regular uniform), but he couldn't stop thinking about the break-in.
"What makes you think otherwise?"
"I'm, well, I'm not sure? I just, this morning, when I saw them, I got a really bad feeling? Like something bad was going to happen. And it doesn't seem, um, logical, that normal reporters would be able to do that to UA's gate. I mean, anyone can have any quirk- no such thing as a villainous quirk. But someone with a quirk like that, they'd put a lot of effort into controlling it and stuff so stuff like this wouldn't happen by mistake. I guess a reporter could have done it on purpose, though, but then it'd be really easy for UA to find out it was them, wouldn't it? Or the police. Since heroes and police have access to the national quirk registry, so you just have to cross-reference reporters with the registry to find quirks that could fit. But would they know that? Anyway, it seems more logical for a third party to have used the press as cover to infiltrate the school. But why? If nothing is missing and no one is hurt, which would be grounds for school being canceled, the next conclusion would be information gathering. But that still leaves the question of the ultimate ends- Mr. Aizawa? Are you okay?"
His teacher had been glaring at a camera mounted in the corner of the classroom and mouthing things at it.
"I'm fine," said Aizawa. He sighed. "You are right that we haven't located the person who destroyed the gates, but please be assured that we are investigating the incident throughly. Especially Principal Nezu." He shot another glare at the camera, as if to say he'd better be.
"Regardless, it isn't something you need to worry about as a student. We're adding more safety protocols to make sure it doesn't happen again."
"Oh, okay. S-so, what are we doing today? Sensory deprivation? Electric shocks? Stress positions? Bean bag barrage for dodging? High stakes hell exam?" He was ready for anything and very excited.
Aizawa stared at him flatly. "We're... doing quirk counseling."
"Yes?"
"Kid... except for maybe the last one... what exactly gave you the idea that any of those things had anything to do with quirk counseling?"
Izuku started to get the feeling he'd seriously messed up. Except he didn't feel particularly anxious about it.
"Oh, uh, Mom used to get brochures like that in the mail, after I was diagnosed? She didn't ever answer any, but... Apparently, some people originally thought to be quirkless got quirks after being in a high stress situation."
"But no one actually did any of those things to you."
"Not really?"
"Midoriya..."
Izuku looked away. He shouldn't have said anything. He didn't like the quirk counselor at Eisley Elementary, but he didn't want to get her in trouble, either. After all, he was the only one she had to do that stuff with, since his quirk hadn't shown up...
Aizawa sighed with the air of someone exercising a lot of self-control. "Except for that last one," said Aizawa, "and that's debatable, all of those are torture techniques."
Ah. Well. That maybe explained a few things.
"They are not a normal part of quirk counseling. At some point, we may incorporate some combat into this, but that will be to help you become more familiar with your quirk. Not just for the sake of making you stressed."
"But if we aren't doing combat, what are we doing?"
"Well, first we're going to try to figure out what your quirk is. Why don't you sit down." He took out some papers as Izuku made his way to his desk. "Alright. I'm going to go through these questions and write down your answers... then we're going to go through them again while I'm canceling your quirk." He paused. "Actually, first. What did you mean when you said you had a bad feeling about the reporters?"
.
"If I were alive," said Yoichi, "I would be committing so much murder right now."
"I thought we left this behind when Ninth graduated," said Nana. "I thought you said you were going to forgive them because they were stupid kids and Ninth forgave them."
"Well, first off, I lied. Secondly, teachers aren't kids. If we ever get hit by a quirk that brings us back to life, the quirk counselor at his old school will be my first victim."
Nana sighed. "That isn't going to happen."
"Who's going to stop me?"
"Less a who, and more the fact that there has never been a quirk that could revive the dead."
"Meaningless!" exclaimed Yoichi. "Death cannot stop me!"
"Think he's finally lost it after all this time?" asked En, leaning towards Nana.
"No, I think he's just messing with us," hoped Nana.
.
"Alright, kid," said Aizawa exhaustion evident in his tone. "Between your answers, your exam results, the battle trial results, how you react when I use my quirk on you, and Monoma's assessment... Your quirk is at least partially sensory.",
Izuku tried not to feel disappointed, but that seemed rather incomplete as a conclusion. Even though he knew about Danger Sense and this probably was Danger Sense.
"Yeah, I know, it's underwhelming, but remember this is the first session. Whatever your quirk actually does, though, you seem to be using it to detect threats."
Okay, that was more in line with expectations.
"I mean... maybe? I think so. That feels right."
"We also need to figure out what it's stockpiling. Have you ever felt any particular draw to certain situations? More than your peers?"
"Um. I watch a lot of hero fights?"
"You're a fight chaser?"
"A little bit?" admitted Izuku, squirming a little.
Aizawa sighed heavily. "I seriously hope your quirk doesn't stockpile danger- don't test that."
He wasn't going to!
Probably.
Speaking of, though, what did One for All actually stockpile? Power was a very vague description... He'd just went along with it because a) quirk and b) All Might, but it would probably be good to know.
"Next time we meet, I'll be running you through the basic quirk assessment battery- that's a series of tests usually given to five-year-olds to help their pediatric quirk doctors and quirk counselors identify difficult or stubborn quirks. You should have gone through it when you were younger."
Izuku shook his head. "All I remember is the x-ray."
"Why would you get an x-ray?"
"For the toe joint? To tell whether or not I was quirkless?" Why was he saying this? He was going to blow his cover and his secret out of the water! This was so dumb.
But he did say it. Maybe it was his guilty conscience from lying to and misleading Mr. Aizawa so much.
"That's a myth," said Aizawa.
"What?"
"It isn't true." Aizawa began to slump down in his seat. "It's an old wives' tale. Everyone quirkless has the double joint, but not everyone with the double joint is quirkless. I have the double joint, as do about twenty-five percent of people with meta quirks." By the time he finished, only the top half of his face was visible.
"Oh," said Izuku. He wasn't sure what else to say. At least the secret of One for All was completely intact.
"I hate to say this, kid, but it sounds like everyone involved in your early quirk education was incredibly incompetent. You shouldn't have had to deal with that, even if you were truly quirkless. It takes just as much counseling to deal with that in today's day and age as something like, say, Ashido's quirk."
Izuku had never heard it put like that before. "Okay."
"Now, before I send you off for today, do you have any questions about anything we'll be doing? Any of the tests we'll be running, normal quirk counseling procedures, anything. It's important for you to feel comfortable about this."
Izuku's eyes teared up. This had already been a very emotional day, and he wasn't sure a teacher had ever asked him that and meant it. "Mr. Aizawa," he said, earnestly, "you're the best teacher I've ever had."
"Is that a joke?" asked Aizawa, flatly.
Izuku shook his head, centrifugal force flinging his teardrops away.
"That's messed up, kid. I'm terrible."
"You're the best," protested Izuku.
"I just need you to know how incredibly low that bar is. Your other teachers must have gotten shovels to dig tunnels under it. They must be dancing limbo in hell."
Izuku blinked. He had no idea what that meant. "I think they're all still alive..."
"Not for long," muttered Aizawa.

MHA Characters with an American S/O
Tumblr media
Katsuki Bakugou
At first, he didn’t know what was so special about an American kid coming to Japan
He thought you would just be some extra who wouldn’t know a word of Japanese and would get in his way
So when you walked into the classroom and was greeted by Iida, in true Iida fashion, and you responded in fluent Japanese, mans was shook
Like, how dare you come in and show up his expectations like that?!
You didn’t exactly get the whole “calling people by their last name” thing so when you called him “Katsuki” for the first time he almost lost his shit right there because no one but his mother calls him that
Oddly enough he kept quiet as you made your rounds around the classroom, Kaminari stopping you from making your way over to him after being introduced to Midoriya because Bakugou had the personality of an angry pomeranian and Kaminari didn’t want you to be subjected to that on your first day
You quickly became friends with all of the Bakusquad outside of Bakugou himself, and the Dekusquad also enjoyed having you around
You would bounce around between hanging with either of them depending on your mood
Bakugou treated you as though you were a lower classman for the first few weeks until it was time for sparring practice under Aizawa’s watch one fateful day
You had a bad morning and had a lot of anger to get out
And with just your luck, you and Bakugou got paired up to spar
Bakugou threw his classic insults in an attempt to rile you up, but you were already deathly mad so the only response he got was you popping your neck rather loudly
In a matter of seconds you had him pinned on the ground, your right hand wrapped around his throat and a deadly glint in your eyes
Mans fell hard after that
He had never seen such raw emotion in a person’s eyes like that and he found himself trying to get a glimpse into those eyes again
Actually started warming up to you and would get mad jealous when you weren’t with the Bakusquad
He didn’t actually confess to you
You happened to be sparring with Shoto and got injured in the process
Mans rushed to the infirmary and when he saw you unconscious mans thought of two things
One: “I’m gonna fucking murder that half and half bastard”
And two: “They better be okay or I’m not gonna be able to take it”
When you woke up he was next to you
He had just gotten back from working out, so he was sweatier than normal, wearing his gym clothes as he was watching you with smoldering red eyes
When you woke up it was over
Mans was on you in a heartbeat
His lips were on yours and the rest was history
You two are the absolute power couple
He tells you everything about Japanese culture because he’s a low key nerd and loves it when he can show off to you by any means
You tell him all about American culture and the fun shit you would do with your friends back home
Denki reminds you most of your friends back home, so he’s your best friend
He knows not to get in the way of you and Bakugou’s time alone though
Often gets confused about American slang, so you’re always explaining new words and trends to him
Tumblr media
Shoto Todoroki
Shoto was very intrigued when he found out you were American
He knew you weren’t local because of your accent, but he always heard that American accents were jarring and annoying to listen to
But he found your voice the exact opposite
He loved the attitude you had
Being in the public school system gave you an edge that no one was ready for, and when you flipped Bakugou over your shoulder and slammed him into the dirt Shoto knew you were someone worth hanging out with
You weren’t afraid to break rules either, and Shoto found that to be a big plus
You became a welcome member of the Dekusquad 
You were there right beside him when he almost lost his dad, a gentle hand on his shoulder so he could ground himself
Outside of Deku, you were the first one he confided in when it came to his family issues
He would always come to you when he needed to vent, and you would always be there to listen
After a particularly rough day you treated him to a movie night and some cold soba and he realized that the feelings that he had around you were something more than friendly
After asking Midoriya about it because he knows literally nothing about human interactions still he decides it would be best if he came clean about it
So, meeting you in your dorm room while you were watching some American superhero film, he confessed how he felt about you
Thankfully you returned the feelings and he had never felt happier than he did in that moment, holding you in his arms as you quoted your favorite lines of the movie while snuggled up to his left side
You often made references he didn’t understand, so you became his culture dictionary for any word he didn’t know
You also introduced him to the comfort foods common in America
He still eats soba religiously but when you make home made mac and cheese he will put the chop sticks away and eat some with you
Actually had to teach you how to hold them properly because you have a natural tremor so your hands shook all the time
He would also keep you up to date on Japanese culture, and would tell you everything you wanted to know about anything
Fuyumi, Natsou, and Rei love you to death
Endeavor doesn’t care for you, which makes Shoto even happier
Tumblr media
Hitoshi Shinsou
He knew how it felt to be different so he empathized with you a lot when you walked into class and tripped up in your heavily accented Japanese a lot
You didn’t exactly have the most battle-ready quirk, but Shinsou didn’t exactly care about that
He ended up talking to you for the first time at lunch, in English, which helped you out a lot
He became your study buddy, you two alternating between studying in either the library, his room, or your room
He would help you practice talking in Japanese and you would help him brush up on his English
He would also translate some of the homework that you didn’t understand
Eventually you two would start talking to each other in either English or Japanese depending on your mood
When you found out about his quirk you didn’t call him villain material like everyone else, rather, you actually started rambling about how good his quirk would be on the battlefield
He was shocked
Next thing he knew he was always around you
You two were attached at the hip
When the Sports Festival came around you were upset that you got knocked out in the first round of one-on-one combat but he was just happy he wouldn’t have to go up against you because he would make himself jump off a cliff before he ever laid a hand on you, much less used his quirk on you
So when he got knocked out of the competition by Midoriya and was bitter about it, you were by his side immediately
After that it just kind of slipped out
And you two walked together hand in hand
Anyone who knew of Shinsou knew that you, the American kid, and him were an item
And when you two happened to pass by some of the 1-A students, Shinsou only pulled you closer as you both walked by, you flashing a small smile

Iida x Reader » Word Count: 4673 » Villain AU » Part of the BNHArem Villain AU collab
!!: Violence, Blood, Attempted murder, Death
A/N: Tried out something a little different, and an attempt at something darker. Please be aware of the warnings. Check out the other collab pieces here!
Tumblr media
The sun glares down on Iida as he stands on the platform next to the mayor and other heroes. Cameras, reporters, and random citizens stare up at them. With all the eyes on him, he straightens up, remembering why he’s here.
Chaos running rampant through the city, villain attacks on the rise, and corrupt heroes abusing their power. It has to come to an end. He must be a beacon of hope for others to look to during these trying times.
“We must remain calm in times like these,” the mayor drones on, “In order to stay safe, follow the curfew. Ingenium and the other heroes beside him are one of a few heroes who stayed true to their calling and will stay by our sides.”
Once the cameras are off and everyone is backstage, he can relax slightly.
It’s not a waste of time per se to do these appearances, but the mayor could have name dropped him or used a picture or something. With crime on the rise and corruption running rampant, Iida’s time is better spent elsewhere.
“Thank you for your vote of confidence, Sir,” Iida says and shakes the mayor’s hand. He studies the other heroes beside him; Uravity, Mines, and Slugger. Comrades he can count on in times of need.
“There aren’t many people left I can trust to protect us,” he sighs and reaches into an inner pocket in his pinstripe suit jacket. Four envelopes, embossed with the city’s crest and labeled with each of their names. “As promised, here is your payment for showing up today. And our part of the city…?” His voice trails off expectantly. Uravity grins and takes one of the envelopes.
“Payment?” Iida frowns as Uravity eagerly counts the contents. The other two people take their respective envelopes and tuck them away.
“Of course,” the mayor smiles wryly, “I scratch your back, you scratch mine.”
“We do not need your money,” Iida insists.
“Suit yourself,” the mayor replies and hands off the envelope, “The rest of you can divvy it up then.” Satisfied with his business, the mayor leaves, leaving Iida to stare at the three heroes – no, piranhas, rip bills out of the envelope and argue about how to split it.
You quietly walk into the changing room and watch your husband rip off the helmet to his armor. Navy-blue eyes narrow. A vein throbs on the side of his neck, and you swear he’s going to burst a blood vessel.
“Disgusting.” Iida places the helmet carefully into the travel containers his hero outfit arrived in.
“I thought you did quite well,” you say and help remove some of the bulkier pieces, “Although it’s hard to mess up standing on a pedestal.”
“Not that,” Iida sighs, your attempted joke falling flat, “Did you know that he tried to pay me? For protection? As if I wouldn’tprotect the city if there wasn’t money involved.”
“So you didn’t take it?” you ask and tuck a bracer into the foam lined case.
“No, of course I didn’t,” he snaps, “But the others… the others did.”
He takes off the rest of his armor with more aggression than necessary, his anger stoked as each piece is carefully put in their travel cases. You help him carry them out to the car, the trunk slamming shut reverberating through the vehicle. The drive home is tense to say the least.
“They aren’t heroes, not in the slightest. They’re mercenaries.” Iida’s hands tighten on the steering wheel. The speedometer slowly creeps higher and higher. “What is this ‘pay us and all your worries will disappear’ bullshit?”
“This is really upsetting you,” you frown and put a comforting hand on his leg, “What are you going to do about it?”
“What can I do?” he sighs. A large hand covers your own, Iida’s thumb stroking the top of it lightly. The engine stops revving higher, and the speed decreases.
“You could expose them,” you suggest, “But all that will do is rile up the public.”
“No, that won’t help the people,” Iida says, “Maybe I can talk to them, persuade them to do the right thing. We became heroes! How can they ignore that?!” You smile at your husband’s enthusiasm, but you both know better; no one will change if it doesn’t suit them.
Tumblr media
Standing in front of a large apartment complex, Iida braces himself for his first of many hopeful conversations. With your help, he thought long and hard about how to approach it. There’s no easy way to ease into what is surely a sensitive subject.
“Ururaka,” Iida smiles at his old classmate when she opens the door, “I’m glad we have this chance to talk!”
“Of course!” Ochako opens the door wide to let Iida in, “It’s been so long.” They make pleasantries in her well-furnished living room, the plush couches and thick rug substantially better than what she had in high school. The neighborhood, by comparison, is a little better off than what she grew up with, but by no means rich.
“I guess I’ll jump right into it,” Iida clears his throat, “Why did you become a hero?”
“For the money.” Auburn hair brushes her shoulder as she tilts her head, the playful crinkle of her nose teasingly says you already know this, silly.
“I know that was your reasoning in high school, but you’re successful now, is there any other reason?” Iida desperately tries to find any connection he can use to sway Ochako to see his point of view.
“Look, Iida,” Ochako says sympathetically, “You’re a nice guy. But not everyone is. I get to use my quirk whenever I feel like it with hardly any repercussions, and I get top of the line gear for free.” She leans back and gestures to the art on her walls and furniture around her. “Me, my friends, and my family will be taken care of. When the world goes to shit, I’ll be ready.” Iida bites his tongue and tries to keep a level head as irritation flares up inside him.
“And the rest of the world?” he asks quietly. Give me an opening, something, anything. We don’t need to protect solely for money! We should do it because we care. We sh-
“What about them?” Wrong answer. Iida’s eyes narrow, a bitter taste rising in his mouth.
“What about the people who can’t protect themselves?” He practically spits the words out in disgust.
“I’m one person. I can only do so much,” Ochako shrugs, “Why spread myself thin to try and save everyone when I can focus on a select few and save them for sure?” A lost cause.
“I see.” An awkward lull in the conversation descends, and Ochako shifts uncomfortably on her couch. She fiddles with her watch while Iida tries to stay calm. His jaw clenches. What was he thinking coming out here? How did he think he could change anything?
“Can you see yourself out?” Ochako smiles. It’s tighter than before – forced. “I have to get ready for another interview this afternoon.”
“How much will this one pay you?” Iida can’t stop the words as they leave his mouth. He can only hope that the condescension and sarcasm he feels isn’t detected.
“I’m actually getting an art piece out of it,” Ochako points at her walls, “I heard that old paintings are the best investment right now since so many banks are being hacked and drained.”
“So all of these…” Iida looks closely at the paintings. He recognizes some signatures scrawled on canvases. Normally, he would agree – art is a very sound investment, but knowing that was the price of Uravity’s services…
“My investments!” she beams proudly, “Well, most of them. I keep a couple tucked away. It’s surprisingly difficult to get adequate storage for them.”
Iida’s teeth grind against each other as he listens to her prattle on. Eventually, she walks away and asks Iida to see himself out again, faint music playing from her bathroom as she gets ready. Iida stands and glares at the offending paintings. He has half a mind to slash them, cut their value down to nothing. But that wouldn’t solve anything.
Slipping his shoes on, a $10,000 French, stainless steel stove gleams in the sunlight. He can’t stop his silent footsteps into the kitchen, nor his hand reaching out and turning one of the brass knobs slightly.
Oh to be betrayed by your ‘investments’. Gas flows out of the stove, filling the air with noxious fumes. None of the privileges afforded to her will protect her from this. Silently shutting the door, he starts down the hallway. Each step brings a sense of shame and guilt down on him.
It’s a mistake.
He knows it.
This is wrong. I can’t do this. It’s not his place to judge why she is a hero. She does her work diligently, and when it comes down to it, Iida is sure Ururaka would do the right thing.
Quickly, he turns around and runs down the hallway to her door. The knob jiggles, but doesn’t budge.
“Ochako!” pain rings through his wrist as he pounds on the door. Taking a step back, he braces himself and rams his shoulder against it. The wood splinters right as the explosion rocks through the apartment.
Warm liquid trickles down his forehead when he comes to. Feeling around for his glasses, he finds shattered frames warped and twisted beneath chunks of wall and the remains of the door.
In all the chaos, he slips in among the other injured tenants of the building. No one pays attention to him, just another body fleeing the destruction. Iida makes it to his car unnoticed.
Despite the head injury, the only sign he was present is a thin layer of dust and rubble coating his clothes. Easy enough to get rid of.
Dread takes root in his stomach the whole drive home. This will be seen as an open attack against heroes if it’s discovered someone set off the explosion. Everyone will be on high alert, and what’s to prevent heroes from staying in their agencies, leaving the public on their own? His quest to put the people first backfired horribly. And if Ochako is dead? That wasn’t his intention at all.
But that’s a lot of ‘ifs’. If they find out what happened. If she’s dead. If, if, if.
-
“Did you hear what happened?” you scroll through a news article the next morning, “She forgot to turn the stove off. Poor dear can’t remember a thing, but she swears she must have been cooking and turned the knob the wrong way. When she flipped the hallway switch, everything ignited. They say she’ll make a full recovery, but now she has to rely on the charity of others while her apartment is rebuilt.”
“Is that so?” Iida says with forced neutrality. What happened hangs over him, threatening to break out into the world. Questions would fly if the media found out Iida was there; what happened? Did he help? Was it an attack? Would she even remember him being there? Is her amnesia a ploy to get him to let his guard down?
“She’s calling the people around her the true heroes: giving anything they can when they have so little,” you muse, “She wants to give back – help the community once she’s back on her feet.”
“Hm.”
“Did you have anything to do with this?” you ask softly, sharp eyes meeting his. You always see too much, know more than you let on. While Iida keeps his head high for his community, you stand at his side and watch his back, keeping a finger on the pulse of anything and everything that happens in the areas he patrols.
It’s why you two are a perfect match. Two forces that work together for the greater good.
“I don’t know what you mean,” Iida lowers his eyes to his mug, suddenly aware of how fast he’s breathing, the speed at which he picks up and drinks his coffee, the way his body shakes with each heartbeat.
“Tenya,” you place your tablet on the table, “I know you met up with her. So what happened?”
“We talked,” he says guiltily, “And I left.”
“I hope you plan on including me in whatever you have going on,” you say sharply.
Tumblr media
A week passes, and Iida replays that moment over and over in his head. And so far, Ochako is sticking to her story; she can’t reallyremember what happened, but it must have been her fault. The last thing she canrecall is getting out of bed. And that’s it. The adrenaline spike every time he realizes he got away with it leaves him feeling high all week. One down, who knows how many more to catch?
In his downtime at work, he looks for complaints and reports of heroes not living up to their calling. No lead is too small, from interns and sidekicks in agencies filing reports to civilians commenting on social media about less than stellar behavior, it’s all important to Iida.
“Boss,” an intern interrupts Iida’s concentration. He minimizes his tabs and turns his full attention to them. “I’ve forwarded the footage from Mrs. Teramoto’s flower shop fire. There’s something you’re going to want to see…”
“Let me pull it up,” Iida frowns and checks his email. Sure enough, there’s an email with an attachment. Opening it, he watches as three masked people walk into the shop. Thankfully, the sweet old lady wasn’t there, her arthritis acted up that day and she had to close early.
The three perpetrators make their way to the cash box and rip it open, greedily stuffing it into their pockets. One starts shooting streams of something, the video is too distorted to tell if it’s a device or something else, and the outlets, fridges full of flowers, and lights start sparking and exploding. Two of the three leave the shop out the back, the third ripping off his mask. Blond hair with a distinct dark mark shakes, freeing itself of helmet hair. A familiar face glances at the camera and scowls before a bolt of electricity fries the camera.
“Is that…” Iida’s blood runs cold as he stares at a grainy picture of a former classmate.
“They’re cleaning up the footage right now, but it looks like it,” the intern says. Iida nods, dismissing them. Another bad apple from his class. How many more will there be?
Backing up, he stares at the scowling face. What to do? Starting an electrical fire, robbery, who knows what else he’s done… Who knows what else he’ll do?
The rest of the work day is spent doing research. How many complaints are there? How many red flags have been raised but ignored? How does the Hero Public Safety Commission allow this to happen? Who keeps the heroes in line?
By the time Iida’s work day is over, he has an impressive dossier prepared - ammunition that’ll destroy a career if put in the right hands. File in hand, he heads over to a tall apartment complex. If a crime is committed, justice must be meted.
“Are you the one who vandalized Mrs. Teramoto’s flower shop?” Iida demands and barges inside once the door is opened.
“‘Hi, how are you? Some lovely weather we’re having right? May I come in?’” Kaminari says sarcastically before closing the door, “What’s it to ya what I did or didn’t do?”
“Just. Answer me. Please,” Iida exhales deeply, some of his anger and frustration leaving. “Did you do it?”
Kaminari saunters over to his fridge and pulls out a beer. He takes his time opening it and making himself comfortable in his home. Golden eyes take pleasure at Iida’s poorly concealed irritation. Both know that Iida can’t say anything without coming off as rude.
“She couldn’t make her payments,” Kaminari shrugs, “No point in having a failing business when something else could thrive there. Besides, she’ll get insurance money from it.”
“She’s not getting anything!” Iida shouts. He expects some kind of reaction; eyes widening in shock, an ‘I didn’t know’, anything. But what he sees has his blood boiling.
“Oh,” Kaminari says and takes out his phone, “Well that’s too bad for her.” Nothing.
“It’s not right,” Iida fumes, “Taking money for your service. Have you no honor?”
“Cut the crap, Iida,” Kaminari sneers, “High school was a long time ago. The ‘class president’ schtick gets old.” Iida’s hands clench in rage, nails digging into his palms.
“So you have no remorse for what you’ve done?” His lip curls in disgust making his words come out in a feral snarl. Crossing his arms, he stares down at his former classmate, waiting for whatever pathetic excuse he’ll come up with.
“Nah,” Kaminari raises an eyebrow, holding Iida’s gaze in a challenge of his own. His own lip twitches in amusement. “I make it out on top every time. Someone doesn’t want to pay? Then I take what I’m owed. Someone does pay, and I make sure they’re left alone. What do I have to regret?”
The last thing he remembers are his engines roaring to life.
The house door shuts, and Iida looks up to see you standing at the top of the stairs.
“Tenya? Is that you?” you descend the steps, wiping sleep from your eyes. “Why are- Oh my god, what happened? Are you hurt?” You fly down the rest of the steps and pat his body. Iida frowns and catches one of your hands, a dark liquid coating your fingers and palm. He turns your hand upward, the lights shining on the crimson liquid coating your fingers.
“I… I don’t think it’s mine.” Iida rolls his shoulders and shifts from leg to leg, feeling every muscle tense. Nothing besides his shins hurt, so it can’t be his, right?
“What …?” Your voice trails off and you step back, staring at the red on your hands in horror.
“He kept talking,” Iida says, not even sure if he’s talking to himself or you, “And every word out of his mouth proved he was no better than the criminals he was ‘protecting’ our citizens from.” He shrugs his suit jacket off and inspects himself. Your eyes stay fixed on the offending clothing, your body rigid.
“Tenya,” you say slowly, “What did you do?”
“I don’t know,” he admits, “My vision was filled with shades of red and I couldn’t stop myself.”
“We need to get you cleaned up,” you say, jumping into action. Scooping up the soiled jacket, you make your way to the laundry. “Get in the shower, I’ll get started on your suit and join you in a minute.”
Almost robotically, he follows your orders and heads to the bathroom. He hears you slip in while he’s in the bathroom and scoop up his remaining clothes.
Steam curls upwards, obscuring the outside world. Iida watches as the boiling water turns shades of crimson and pink. It runs off his hands and swirls down the drain. A draft of cold air hits his back, and he knows you’re there with him.
“What are you thinking?” you murmur and wrap your arms around him, your own hands and arms clearing of the tainted stain. How could he have been so careless and dragged you into this?
“Did I do the right thing?” he asks, his voice nearly lost in the water raining down on him.
“You’re protecting people from corruption,” you console him, “No one else is going to do it.”
“I’ve never taken a life before,” Iida admits. Whether it’s to reassure himself that that’s a line he’d never cross or to reassure you that he’s not an absentminded killer, he’s not sure.
“Would you do it?” you ask and turn him so he’s facing you. Your upper arms are still dirty, and there’s a streak of dried blood on your cheek. Iida tries to avert his eyes, but your gaze holds him captive.
“I don’t know.”
“Would you take the life of an innocent person?” you press on.
“No!” Iida flinches as if you slapped him. The thought of killing someone innocent? Someone like sweet Mrs. Teramoto? He couldn’t. “Never.” Your eyes soften, content with the answer.
“What about a criminal who couldn’t be stopped and it was the only way?” you continue the pseudo-interrogation. Iida reaches out and wipes at the rusty red streak on your face. Satisfied with his work, he answers.
“I promised to protect people. And I’ll do what I can to uphold that.” That’s not a straight answer, but there is not a straight line when it comes to corruption. He watches you process his words, the wheels turning furiously in your head.
“You’re acting like a god and you’re trying too hard,” you finally say. Iida’s heart falls slightly. He’s doling out justice to a group of people who are no better than lawless criminals. Surely you would understand that what with how in tune you are to the world and all its happenings.
“You can’t talk me out of any of this,” he shakes his head. You reach behind him and crank the water off. The sudden loss of warmth and pressure jars him.
“You’re acting on emotions instead of thinking logically,” you say and hand him a towel before wrapping yourself in one. Iida can already see the analytical part of you taking over; any hard truths he needs to hear will come with no filter. “Everything you do is for the moment instead of long term. Let me help. I’ve been with you through everything.” Dangerous eyes meet his - eyes of a predator on the hunt. “I will not let you slip up and destroy everything we’ve built together.”
He should refuse. There’s no need to involve you any further in this. He can do this on his own. But everything you said is true. You’ll help him walk the fine line he’s barely straddling; keep him from crossing over in the heat of the moment.
“Okay,” he agrees reluctantly.
“Good,” you nod, “Do we need to hide a body?”
Tumblr media
You don’t normally appear at Idaten Towers even though you work in the background and are on the board of directors. There are hushed whispers throughout the offices at your sudden appearance and the fact that you’ve locked yourself in your office, barely coming out for food.
Let them speculate. You have research to complete while your husband continues his work protecting people who cannot protect themselves. The curfew is still in place, and crime is on the rise. You’ll do your part and use any connections you can.
Satisfied with the stack of files you have, you hoist them into your arms and march to your husband’s office. Eyes follow your powerful strides across the floor. He sees you approaching and opens the door for you before shutting it and closing the blinds.
You drop the stack on his desk and start rattling off the crimes.
“This one is siphoning funds meant for charity. This one abuses power to get what he wants. Another one is stealing from police inventory and selling enhancing drugs on the side,” you report.
“All of them,” Iida says, his eyes narrowing, trying to count the number of folders you brought. You pause and cock your head to the side.
“Are you sure that’s wise?” you ask. You know it’s not. You know he knows it’s not. But you’re the voice of reason to his bleeding heart.
“It’s safer with them off the street,” Iida says, “It’ll be safer for our future children. They shouldn’t have to grow up with these worries or see these poor examples of role models.”
“If you’re the only one left, it’ll be suspicious,” you remind him. Your words give him pause.
“Let me look through everything,” he sighs, “Give me a chance to find the worst of the worst.”
“What if,” you start and flip through your stack, searching for one file in particular, “I found the way to keep casualties to a minimum but have the biggest impact?” Iida stops and watches you pull out one file in particular.
“Go on.” He eyes the folder, wondering how this could be the answer to everything.
“I have an idea,” you tap a file against your fingers, “And a target.”
He takes the manila folder from you and flips through it. Critical navy-blue eyes scan the information before flicking up to you. Everything is laid out in there; all he needs to do is pull the trigger on the information.
“Anything for you, my love.”

opinions on all might himself?
also principle nezu, shigaraki, kurogiri, jirou, momo, tokoyami, tsuyu and iida?
All Might I would say is a controversial character. On the one hand he told Midoriya that he can not become a hero when he is quirkless. However it does make sense. At the point AM was at a low. His hope was gone. He as the number 1 hero got beat with a huge wound. It also probably did not help that so far Izuku only showed him that he was reckless by holding onto his leg. Like this AM was quite depressed. He is also not a great teacher. But here is the thing. He is trying. At first he needs to learn whats important but when he does he works with it. He even reads up on teaching materials and really tries his best. Fandom does like to bash him to lift other characters up. Which generally is something I dislike. You do not need to bash others so your character seems great. Unless your character is shitty. As a hero he also tried his best and I would not fault him alone to society changing up to be like this. He probably did not intend this and people grew comfortable with him around. To Nezu I again like the fanon counterpart as the canon part suffers from "Teacher/mentor in youth literature" disease. Which makes them act incompetent. He sure is smart but so far the villains have broken through his security ideas. He sure is interesting but I wouldn't mind a deeper look in him. Shigaraki. Well he has been manipulated by AFO for decades. There is even the theory that AFO gave him his quirk and triggered the death. He is not really his own person but more what AFO tried a puppet or vessel to be like. I can understand the saving but also the killing aspect. Like I can see Izuku saving him but I can not imagine a moment where he survives after the series. He did too much. Neutral on him really. Kurogiri: Well the mistman certainly is interesting look wise, quirk wise, backstory wise. Not my favorite but not disliked. Neutral I would say Jirou I mostly only see in fandom materials. She seems smart and stubborn though gets overshadowed easily and certainly lacks some screentime like other characters. Neutral on her. Momo: Similiar to others like Jirou also suffers from "Female in shonen" disease. Like she is a recommended student. She is shown as smart. Has basically the quirk that is Versatile. Like she can do anything with it. But sadly she gets sidelined for her male peers and is not really allowed to have wins. Her first internship was basically useless. she lost at the sports festival. Lost at the joint training. She has huge potential but that gets ignored for other characters that get shoved in the spotlight. I like her but it´s just sad. Well. Tokoyami is there. Again a bit more potential in the character. Like are quirks like his incredible rare? How did he grow up? He does get spotlight. He seems mature and takes things seriously though may add his own aesthetic which is fine. I do like him. Tsuyu: She did well in the USJ but got sidelined for me. I like that she is blunt but does not try to be malicious with it. It is simply a part of her character that she also tells others about. Could get some more screentime but not so needed for what she does. Still like the other girls has more potential. I do like her. Iida: He got done dirty by the story. There sure seemed the intention to give him more story after Hosu. The Hosu trio of Iida, Midoriya and Todoroki. Three friends bonding over hiding a murder attempt. Sure he was judgemental of Midoriya at first but he quickly changed up his view when he took a closer look. He could have been a rival. Someone that lifts the other up. But he also got sidelined to push a different trio. He should have been part of the endeavor agency arc. It makes sense that Todoroki may ask him too. He also has things to improve in. They know eachother. Huge potential also not picked up. Still I like that he was the one that grabbed Midoriyas hand and who seemingly reached him with his feelings. It tells that those two have a bond which sadly could be shown more. Not my number 1 but greatly liked.
