PAIRING: 3A!denkikaminari x gn!reader WARNINGS: sad denki, no use of y/n GENRE: angst to fluff SONG INSPIRATION: there for you by martin garrix & troye sivan WORD COUNT: 1.1k

navigation | ask | boku no hero academia masterlist

you notice denki has been quieter than usual all day. normally, he'd be the one cracking jokes and keeping the energy up, but today there’s a different air about him. it’s subtle, the way he avoids eye contact, the forced smiles, the way his shoulders seem a little slumped, but it’s slight but it's there. and what bothers you most is that no one else seems to notice. the others laugh and carry on, completely oblivious to the shift in his mood.

he stands up suddenly after a group conversation winds down, muttering something about needing to head back to his dorm. no one questions it, letting him go without a second thought, but you can't shake the feeling that something's wrong. you watch him walk away, disappearing down the hall, and a few moments later, you decide to follow.

after giving him some time alone, you make your way to his room. his door is closed when you arrive, and you hesitate for a second, wondering if he needs more time to himself. but the image of his unusually downcast expression sticks in your mind, and you gently knock on the door before letting yourself in.

denki’s sitting on his bed, staring out the window, lost in thought. his usual electric energy is nowhere to be found. he turns his head when he hears you, surprise flickering across his face.

"hey..." he says quietly, his voice lacking its usual spark. "didn't think anyone was gonna come by."

you give him a small smile, closing the door softly behind you before stepping further into the room. "i noticed you were kind of off today," you say gently, sitting on the edge of his bed, keeping some space between you. "i just wanted to check in. see if you're okay."

for a moment, he doesn’t say anything. his gaze falls back to the floor, and his fingers fidget nervously with a loose thread on his shirt. "i'm fine," he mutters, though the way he says it makes it clear he's not. "it's stupid stuff. i don’t want to bother you with it."

“denki…” you tilt your head, your voice soft but firm. “you can talk to me. you don’t have to pretend like everything’s fine when it’s clearly not.”

he lets out a short, bitter laugh, still avoiding your gaze. "i don’t know. i just feel like... everyone’s moving forward, getting better, and i’m stuck, y’know? i try to keep up, but i’m always messing something up. like today, in training... i fried out again. everyone laughed. and i don’t blame them, i mean, it’s what i do, right? screw up and turn into an idiot." he laughs again, but it’s empty, and his shoulders slump a little more.

your heart aches hearing him talk like this. denki always seems so carefree, so full of confidence, but now, sitting here with him, you can see the cracks in the facade he puts up for everyone.

“denki, you’re not an idiot,” you say, your voice filled with sincerity. “you’re one of the most hardworking people i know. you’re always pushing yourself, always trying to get better. and yeah, sometimes things don’t go the way you want, but that doesn’t mean you’re not improving. you’re not stuck.”

he finally looks at you, his eyes filled with doubt. "it’s just hard sometimes, you know? feeling like i’m always the one who messes up while everyone else is just... better."

you scoot a little closer, your voice gentle as you say, “you’re not alone in feeling like that. we all struggle sometimes, even if it doesn’t always show. but i promise you, no one thinks less of you for having rough days.”

denki takes a deep breath, and some of the tension in his body seems to ease. he leans back against the headboard, his hands resting in his lap. “i just... i guess i didn’t think anyone really noticed. i’m always the ‘happy-go-lucky guy,’ right? i don’t want people to see me like this.”

“i’m so sorry that i didn't realize it sooner,” you say softly, meeting his eyes. “and it’s okay to have off days. it doesn’t make you weak or anything like that. it just makes you human.”

his eyes shining with a mix of emotions, hope, disbelief, something like gratitude. “you really mean that?”

“of course i do,” you said, squeezing his hand gently. denki’s gaze dropped to your intertwined hands, his thumb brushing over yours almost absently. “i just… i don’t wanna be behind, you know? i want to be taken seriously, like everyone else.”

your heart ached at the vulnerability in his voice, the raw honesty that he usually kept hidden behind his carefree smile. you shifted closer, wrapping your arms around him in a gentle hug. he stiffened for a moment, then melted against you, his head resting on your shoulder.

“you’re appreciated so much more than you think, denki,” you whispered, your voice fierce with conviction. “you have so much to offer. i’m so proud of you, and i’m so lucky to know you.”

he let out a shuddering breath, his arms tightening around you like he was afraid to let go. “thank you,” he murmured, his voice barely audible. “i…i really needed to hear that.”

you held him close, your hand gently stroking his back. “i’ll always be here for you. whenever you need to talk, or just…need someone. i’m here.”

he didn’t say anything, he didn't need to, he just held you tighter, his breath warm against your neck. for a long time, you sat like that, wrapped in each other’s arms, the noise of the common room fading away until it was just the two of you, cocooned in a bubble of quiet comfort.

eventually, he pulled back, his eyes red but clearer, the tension in his face eased. “i’m sorry,” he said, his voice still a little shaky. “i didn’t mean to dump all this on you.”

“don’t apologize,” you said firmly. “you’re allowed to feel how you feel, and you’re allowed to talk about it. i’m honestly glad that you did.”

“you’re…you’re really cool, ya know?”

he smiled, a real, genuine smile that made your heart swell with relief. “i’ll try to believe it.”

“that’s all i ask,” you said, squeezing his hand. “just…try to see yourself the way i see you.”

his smile softened, his eyes shining with something warm and tender. “i’ll try,” he said again, his voice quiet but steady. “and…thank you. for being here. for listening. it means a lot.”

“always,” you said, your heart aching with how much you meant it. “i’m always here for you, no matter what.”

he nodded, his gaze lingering on yours for a long, another quiet moment. then he shifted, leaning forward to press a gentle kiss to your forehead, the touch so soft it made your breath catch.

“thank you,” he whispered one last time, his voice filled with all the things he didn’t know how to say.

you knew that, whatever happened, you’d always be there to remind him of just how incredible he truly was.

Chapter 44/? It's only a few days before it's time for them to return to school, and less than a day until his first therapy session. Izuku's a little nervous and has no idea what to expect. Summary: Third Year at UA is underway. Now that their final Sports Festival has come to a close, it’s time for Class 3-A to get a start on their future careers, choosing the final internships of their school days! It’s been a lot of hard work to reach this point, but none of the students show any sign of slowing down, they’re all trying to race toward the future with everything they have! Uraraka Ochako, perhaps more than anyone, is ready for the undertaking! She’s been prepping herself for the task since she started at this school! And nothing’s going to get in her way! Hopefully, striking the proper balance of her internship, school work, and having a social life shouldn’t be too hard…probably.

Okay soooooo this is the most recently updated chapter but, admittedly, if anyone on here was following me for this fic and you aren't subscribed on Ao3, the last update I linked here through tumblr was 38. Just something to keep in mind I suppose 😂 We're on year five of my posting this story believe it or not. I certainly can't. but anyway, please enjoy!

Shigaraki: It’s not the cage itself that traps you, but being unable to leave it behind even once you slip past the bars.

Hawks: That’s a nice line. Did you come up with it?

Shigaraki: No. You did.

Minutes to Midnight is a Hawks-centric story in where Hawks has to navigate a quirk that sends him into different worlds that all attempt to answer questions of “What if?”. Chapter 4 can be found here.

  Experimented Y/n part 1 ‘Drip, drop, drip, drop’. I sit inside my cell in the lab as water falls from the ceiling scattering from the impact. A small amount of sunlight comes through a crack. My hands and feet were chained up to the wall. I have been here for quite some time, long enough where I would count the steps people would take, the speed, and sometimes the seconds in between. Speaking of that, I heard someone dashing through the hallway.  I knew that it wasn't anyone who worked here because no one has a need to run. It couldn't be a child, they were too fast. The door slams open. It was a tall man, maybe 6 feet, with long yellow hair that stood up and a leather black suit. “Eraser! There’s a kid!” He yells.  He walks towards me. Without thinking I growl at him. No humans are good as far as I know. “Kid, I just want to help you.” The person says.  I growl at him again. “Look. You hate this place more than I do, so let me get you out of here.” The man offered you his hand.  There were hundreds, no THOUSANDS of reasons why I shouldn’t trust him, reasons why I should just bite his hand off. But I didn’t. I laid my head in his hand. He unlocked the muzzle. “Now, the chains.” He said. He grabbed my wrist as he pulled up my long sleeve. I wince as he looked at my arm in shock.  “ Kid, are you okay? Your arm!” He yelled. I stayed quiet, a bit ashamed. I could barely hear the groan that escaped him as he began to unlock my arms.  My stomach growls. “Um, sir?” He raises an eyebrow. “Do you…  do you, um, have any food on you?” I asked timidly. “ Well, I was going to save this for later but you might need this more than me.” He reaches into his pocket and pulls out half a sandwich. He hands it to me as he continues to unlock my arm. With the hand that he unlocked I grabbed it. As he started to unlock my other arm, I gobble the food down.  When he finished unlocking me he stood up. “Okay. We’re gonna get you out of here.” The man said as he picked me up. I tensed up.  He suddenly dashes out of the room. BANG! BANG! BANG!  One of the scientists shot at me and the man but the man quickly dodged.  With an insane look the scientist yells, “GIVE THEM BACK OR YOU DIE!” “Sorry to disappoint you but I can’t do that.” The man said as he had a smirk on his face. He sat me down as the man said, “I need you to listen to me for just a second. Cover your ears as best as you can.” I nodded slightly. “YEEEEAAAAHHHH!!!!!!!” The man yells, making my ears ring and the scientist falls to his knees while his ears bled. He picked me up and began to run again. When the ringing stopped, I was fast asleep on the man’s shoulder.

PAIRING: 3A!denkikaminari x fem!reader WARNINGS: he's kind of a fuckboy in this, no use of y/n GENRE: ??? SONG INSPIRATION: good graces by sabrina carpenter WORD COUNT: 447

navigation | ask | boku no hero academia masterlist

denki had made it clear that this was just a “situationship,” you treated it as such. when you saw him cozying up with some girl last week, if he was gonna do what he wanted, so why wouldn’t you?

as you crossed paths with him, denki’s wide grin and fake enthusiasm didn’t go unnoticed as he peeled away from his friends and jogged over to you.

“hey! haven’t seen you around much,” he said, a little too eager.

you shrugged. “yeah, i’ve been busy.”

“busy?” he asked, clearly fishing for details.

“yup,” you said, your tone light. “same way you’ve been busy with your new little friend, i guess.”

denki froze for a second, rubbing the back of his neck awkwardly. “oh, that? it’s not like that, we were just talking.”

“sure,” you replied, a hint of a smile tugging at your lips. “you’ve got nothing to worry about. we’re keeping things casual, remember?”

he blinked, his confidence wavering. “right, but…you’re not upset or anything, right?”

you let out a small chuckle. “upset? why would i be? you’re doing your thing, i’m doing mine. it’s whatever.”

denki looked thrown, clearly expecting more of a reaction. “wait, so you’re not–?”

“denki,” you interrupted, “i really don’t care. you said this wasn’t serious, so i took you for your word  and, well... i’ve got other things going on now.”

he tilted his head, clearly confused. “other things?”

you gave him a slow, lazy smile. “yeah, like how i’ve been hanging out with eijiro. he’s been...fun to be around.”

denki’s eyes widened, a flicker of panic crossing his face. “eijiro? you mean kirishima?”

“mhm.” you shrugged, completely nonchalant. “he’s been good company lately. real dependable, too.”

denki’s expression faltered. “you’re not serious.”

you raised an eyebrow. “what’s there to be serious about? you said we’re not exclusive, right? or does that rule only apply to you?”

he was clearly struggling now, his casual front crumbling. “but i thought–”

“denks, relax,” you said, already half-bored with the conversation. “you don’t need to explain anything to me. it’s not like i was ever that invested in this anyway.”

his mouth opened, but no words came out. you could see him trying to pull himself together, scrambling to find a way to salvage the situation. 

“look, if you wanna keep doing your thing, go for it. i’ve already moved on.” you shot him a final smile, turning to leave without waiting for a reply.

as you walked away, you could practically feel denki’s panic behind you, but you didn’t look back. whatever was going through his head now was his problem, not yours. you had better things to do. 

better people too.

Summary: Valentine’s Day approaches and Ochako finds her feelings for a certain someone bubbling up to the surface. She has to find a way to get these feelings out without actually confessing.

Or at least that was the plan… but somehow, when it comes to being in Class A, plans have a tendency to go awry.

Similarly, the last time I updated THIS story on here was when I first posted chapter 1—but it's been updated through chapter 6! So if you never saw this one past chapter 1, feel free to follow the link here to chapter 2 and you can even read the next 4 chapters after. Crazy!

[justhellacesome]

dude, im just. so damn pumped now that mha is finished and its broken ending, THE FANFICS ARE GONNA BE MARVELOUS. I DAMN TELL YOU ITS THE ONLY DAMN THING IM LOOKING FORWARD TO.

[ebonysficcollection]

read between the lines by @real-fakedoors

Status: completed

One of the best Quirkless Izuku fics I have ever read

I have always fucking hated slow burn fics where it takes the main couple 37 chapters and 40 thousand words to even kiss. Sometimes it works, but only very rarely. Here, that is mercifully not the case. While the fic itself is only 18 chapters, and Izuku and Shouto don't actually get together until chapter 11, given the actual length of those chapters, that is more than enough time for the author to explore Izuku and Shouto's relationship WHILE THEY'RE IN A RELATIONSHIP. And not only that, but they get together, and they actually stay together. The relationship development is done so brilliantly here because it's done in stages. Strangers, to friction, to amicability, to friends, to boyfriends. And the amount of time that it takes for them to go through these stages is all done in a believable amount of time. Izuku and Shouto's relationship development in this fic is on par with Luz and Amity's relationship development in The Owl House, which can only be a good thing.

Also, along that same vein, when Shouto is actually aware of his feelings, not only does he not beat around the bush and go "welp, guess it's time to pine forever", but the day he realizes that he likes Izuku as more than a friend, he starts making plans to ask him out that same exact day! Like, not only is that extremely realistic (not just for Shouto's character, but also for how people actually act when they have feelings for someone) but it's also really fucking refreshing!

I really love how Izuku was still able to have a sense of proactivity and agency despite being Quirkless AND despite not being in the hero course or being especially skilled in combat or fighting. It's really rare to see that combination of attributes in a bnha fic.

Sometimes the writing style can be a little... heavily wordy at times, but not so much so that I had the desire to stop reading it, which is usually where I tend to drop off in fics that do something similar. Thankfully, though, the dialogue felt very natural and fit well with the characters when they were speaking, because you can have all the clunky narration you want, but the second the dialogue starts getting fucky is when I peace the fuck out. The pacing could also be a little wonky at times, with certain scenes feeling like they're progressing way too slowly but I chalk that up mainly to the word count, and again, it wasn't so bad that it was an active deal-breaker, and when I actually sat down to read it, I almost never felt my attention drifting. Basically, I guess that's a long way of saying that this is not a casual read, but a lot of people like fics they can binge, so.

While I am here primarily for Tododeku, I appreciate that the author didn't feel the need to sacrifice anything about the story for the sake of... fan-service I guess is the best way to put it. Izuku and Shouto are allowed to have their own lives, goals, and stories outside of each other while still developing in their relationship with each other. They even have their own separate support systems, which is something I appreciated. (I cannot stress enough the author's competency at writing good believable relationships).

Also Shinsou is a predominant character in this fic and I love him, and I love that he's basically Izuku's best friend. He and Izuku's friendship is great and reminds me a lot of me and my own best friend.

There's a scene where Shouto goes to Natsu for relationship advice and it's fucking amazing

I cannot believe that shit hit the fan in the FIRST. FUCKING. CHAPTER! Say what you will, but this fic does NOT beat around the bush.

Literally the only thing I don't like about it is the fact that it's a part of a series that hasn't updated in forever

[swimmin-all-the-time]

Some spicy tdbk ☺️
