My Hero Academia: Ambush Simulation AU - Provisional License Exam
Touya finding out Shouto failed the provisional license exam, something he himself had to pass in order to participate in UA's ambush simulation for legal reasons.
Touya: Weren't you going to do some celebrating thing for Shouto passing the exam?
Fuyumi: He didn’t pass.
Touya: *snorts tea through his nose* He fucking what now?
Fuyumi: Touya!
Touya: *coughing/visibly struggling not to laugh* How bad was it?
Fuyumi: *also trying not to laugh but only laughing because he's laughing* This isn’t funny. Stop laughing.
Touya: *cry laughing, high-pitched voice* I’m sorry he didn’t pass, that really sucks. I just wish I could have seen the look on Dad’s face. Did he turn purple?
Fuyumi: No, but he did go into the garden to shoot off 'fireworks.'
Touya: Is that what woke me up?
...
Fuyumi: *on phone with Shouto later* Anyway, that's the story of why Touya is now eating your victory cake. I'll send you the 'sorry, you tried' cupcakes later.
Shouto: That's fine. Thank you anyway.
Fuyumi: Yeah, weird thing is it's red velvet and Touya can't stand red velvet, so this is some diabolical pettiness. *covers phone to yell* Do you have to be such a child? You're gonna make yourself sick and I'm not cleaning it up!
Touya: *distant maniacal cackling*
...
Touya: *on phone with Shouto later* So I just wanted to ask what the hell happened. Aside from Fuyumi ordering both a 'congrats' cake and 'sorry, you tried' cupcakes and totally jinxing it for you.
Shouto: I...kinda ended up fighting with a student from another school.
Touya: ...we're speaking the same language, and yet I still feel like I mistranslated something. You wanna run that by me again?
Shouto: I got into a fight with another student, lost points, and fell below the passing score. ......... Yeah, I can still hear you laughing, Touya.
Touya: *struggling* Okay, so what have we learned?
Shouto: *sighs* Don't get into fights while taking career-important exams.
Touya: Precisely. Only my exact phrasing would have been, 'Don't be a jackass.' Did you win?
Shouto: No, Midoriya split us up before it got too serious.
Touya: What, and you didn't challenge the guy to settle the matter in the parking lot afterward? Who was he anyway? Was it a he? She? Them?
Shouto: He was someone from Shiketsu.
Touya: ...and you didn't start a rumble in the parking lot? Some friends you have.
Shouto: Mr. Aizawa would have stopped us.
Touya: And there's twenty of you and one of him, what's your point?
...
So anyway, even in this AU, Touya is still a brat living in the madness of his own mind. And after the whole incident on top of Machia, that seems pretty on brand for him.

As An IzuOcha Shipper…
…them not ending up together isn’t the problem.
Horikoshi taking the “leave it up to interpretation” approach and then proceeding to COMPLETELY AVOID ADDRESSING their relationship status is the problem.
Horikoshi failing to tie up that one last loose end for Uraraka’s character arc (not closing off her feelings) is the problem.
Again, I ship IzuOcha. Still do, because I’m stubborn. Would I have liked for them to end up together, even if it was only a somewhat blatant implication that could be handwaved? Obviously. But you know what? Maybe I would be upset if the story went out of its way to explicitly de-confirm any chance of Midoriya and Uraraka being a romantic pairing, but I’d at least respect it and understand it a lot more if the story let Midoriya and Uraraka actually talk about this, or at the very least SHOWED US them talking about this. I’d understand if Uraraka completed her character arc by having a heart to heart with Midoriya and telling him that her feelings have changed, her priorities have changed, and Midoriya understands and they remain good friends. Let’s be real, romance isn’t Horikoshi’s strong suit, despite his many attempts to leave romantic implications throughout the series. I’d completely understand if he just had Midoriya and Uraraka talk and they didn’t end up together, because at least then it still provides both of their characters with closure.
But no, that’s too simple. Let’s just “leave it up to interpretation,” because it clearly wasn’t that important, right?
Well, as many people on the internet have already brought up, if it wasn’t so important, why did you spend so much time putting emphasis on it? Why did you have Uraraka, up until the FINAL WAR, have her crush on Midoriya be a crucial part of her character (it wasn’t her only character trait, mind you, but it was still important)? Why did the penultimate chapter have the class come to comfort Uraraka and tell her that they can talk to her… and then come the next chapter, Uraraka apparently hasn’t done anything regarding her supposed crush on Midoriya? For literal YEARS!?
…see, this isn’t even a shipping problem anymore. This is a character problem.
Horikoshi, for whatever reason, chose not to include a romance for the main character and his supposed love interest. And again, that’s fine, not every story needs to be a romance. Two problems with it here though (well, one problem and an observation):
1) Choosing to not at least address the romantic subplot with a “I think we’re better off as friends” encounter, thus actually concluding the subplot and providing a sense of closure, not only leaves the result feeling underwhelming and frustrating, but also actively damages Uraraka’s character arc. We can have her address the problem that caused people like Toga to exist, but heaven forbid she talks about romance with Midoriya.
2) Despite his supposed aversion to romance, Horikoshi still went out of his way to give Gentle and La Brava wedding rings… he’s willing to establish a side romantic pairing without bringing too much attention to it, but he can’t be bothered to do something similar for the arguable MAIN pairing? It’s the “Togata has special clothes so he doesn’t end up buck naked, but Hagakure’s still gotta go commando” debacle again…
I’ma go ahead and wrap this up ‘cause I don’t wanna keep y’all much longer, but like… being optimistic, this ending was… functional. I’ve got my problems with it, obviously, I don’t think it was BAD bad… but it certainly wasn’t good. It works. Barely. And it’s ‘cause of stuff like this.
Midoriya and Uraraka didn’t need to end up together, truly. All Horikoshi had to do was put the smallest amount of effort and give us something of substance, something with closure. Instead, we got what we got.
I get that he was exhausted and wanted the manga to be over… but that excuse only holds up for so long.

2 things.
Izuku using クソ(meaning sh*t) nonchalantly. Given any other time, Izuku wouldn't blatantly use the word. He's too preoccupied rn that the word just came forward naturally. He can't think clearly and organizedly as he usually would even during battle, meaning this fight really is putting him in an incredibly tough spot and he has to shoulder almost everything right that moment.
POOR BOY GOT SO MUCH WEIGHING ON HIM HE LITERALLY CAN'T BREATHE! (Like, things are happening so fast there's not even a chance for a breather) 😭 Not just because of the 2nd's quirk but the chaos then and there really isn't what a boy should handle. Everyone's in danger now that the tide has turned and Izuku being Izuku, he's gonna go plus ultra ×n% more even if his body physically crumbles (as if this isn't his first 🥲).
Can someone please come to his rescue?? Katsuki?? It's high time you wake up and go complete your wonder duo thing 😭

I have another idea! Man I am on a roll!
———————————————————————
Here me out: Yo Shindo and Monoma being childhood friends. But like a completely healthy friendship and rivalry. (Their classes too.) And celebrate their birthdays together too.
Maybe they knew each other before they got their quirks and a tiny bit after that. Until one of them moved away. And they get back in contact shortly before school starts.
Perhaps Yo went through a bit of what Bakugo did and was pretty trashy. But Mrs. Joke levels him out.
And maybe when they meet up everyone sees a whole new side of them both. Because they’re just really good friends (NO ROMANTIC FEELINGS! The only romantic stuff is Yo trying to ask for relationship advice because Neito is somehow better then him with his own girlfriend LMAO).
Perhaps they banter but genuinely care for the other as a brother. And will comfort, pester, banter, defend and mother-hen each other (when one of them or their classmates get hurt).
They could meet up at U.A and give Class 1A a goddamn heart attack. Because, holy shit these guys know each other??? We’re screwed. Even Todoroki and Bakugo pale a bit.
And maybe they fight against a villain together and show impeccable teamwork. After all there’s no way in hell Neito hasn’t analyzed the fuck out of Yo’s quirk and no way that Yo doesn’t know a lot about Neito’s.
[Any ideas what to call this AU? Need some ideas.
Also if you want to write a fic but don’t have characters for Yo’s class, because we only know like, 4 of them go over to @quirk0-0ideas. They are a mutual of mine and have awesome ideas.]

Every one of Mera's appearances can be attributed to showing you who he is and his development as a background character EXCEPT for the second license exam. My guy was there for silly reasons (affectionate) and I respect that

You think my old key into the agency building will work? I don't really feel like making another resume, it might be more efficient to walk in and ask for my old position. "Hey guys I know I was cast into the flaming pits of hell for a bit but I wasn't exactly fired! Howzabout I get my old position, ey?!"

does transfem bakugo have long or short hair?
I will be giving her longer hair if only because I can! Though re: the new Icon my intent on drawing that version of her is within the current story arc of CC, not the 'fully out and transitioning' version.

i have more thoughts bc this is my literal diary <3
i dont think mako knows who she is without her dad. bakugo katsuki is her role model. her father. her hero. her everything. kirishima eijiro is her role model. her father. her hero. her everything.
her signature move is to hit her father's signature pose, harden, and explode whatever poor fucker pissed her off today. she's a brunette, but she dyed the ends red when she was younger. at UA, she bleaches it.
"you look just like ground zero!"
"the new red riot, huh?"
and that got to mako. she's got eijiro's smile. she's got katsuki's constantly plotting eyes. she swears like a sailor, she thinks everything is manly when shes six. she cuts her hair even to look like katsuki's and spikes it when she gets accepted to UA.
she wants to be them so bad. so so so bad.
and i think theres at some moment. when shes down and beaten during their licensing exam, spitting up blood as her forearms bleed, her spikes long forgotten on the ground as her head spins, she realizes she's not as strong as them. when she's beaten into the wall, within an inch of her life, she's all too aware that she's not ground zero. she's not red riot.
she's kirishima makoto. and she's scared.
shes 15. her armor's broke in three different places. she hasn't been able to save anyone without them commenting on her shit attitude and whatever else. but the villain attack --
she's never taken being scared very well before. shes the oldest out of the pair, kimiko was always in need of saving and mako was always there for her. eijiro tried to drill into her that being afraid of things was ok, but this was often underscored by seeing the pair of them on tv, in their hero alter egos saving people and doing it while looking badass. her strong quirk didnt help either, she was brave and always running headlong into danger. she couldn't get hurt, so obviously --
shes staring at a combination of her own spit and blood on the concrete. theres some in her eyes. she bleeds.
and thats what it all is. mako forgets her parents are human because she doesnt ever remember being privy to them getting hurt. they never wanted to scare her, never wanted to make her worry. katsuki's own experiences, being kidnapped, being trapped back in middle school, almost dying multiple times, he just wanted his kid to know she could do whatever the fuck she wanted to. she didnt need to be afraid.
the bleach in her hair is giving away to brunette. she needs to redo the dye when she gets back to the dorms. one of the tips of her teeth broke off during their last duels at school, one of her canines.
she didnt know her shrapnel darts could bleed. she didnt know she could run out of them. she sure as hell didnt know she could bleed.
but shes also realizing -- she cant harden like her dad can. theres a limit, she'd just never hit it before. shed only ever been triumphant, only seen red riot being triumphant at the end of a fight. her explosions are starting to hurt, theres harden bits clinking on the ground where theyd come away from some exposed skin.
and that, is when mako gets the ugliest awakening of her life.
kimiko is there to save her. once she musters up the courage and strength and blasts out of there with mako in her arms. she finishes off the other student, but by then the test is over. kimiko's as battered and bruised as she is, but still has a worried look on her face.
and pity.
mako doesnt know what to do with pity. and its about to drive her fucking crazy.
"are you ok?"
mako's not. everything hurts. she hopes that other student didnt pass either. was it another student? she doesnt know. he was big, and he hurt.
"you look terrible."
she knows.
"i'll get you to one of the teachers."
don't. im not weak. i dont need your help.
"you overused your quirk, didnt you? its ok. im sure everyone does."
and mako snaps.
kimiko comes out with an extra black eye, cuts, her license and questions. so many questions about the spiky haired girl she sees like a sister.
mako comes out with effectively a slap on the wrist, a two day suspension, and if she has good behavior in two weeks, a chance to join the remedial classes. chalked up to after battle adrenaline by aiko, but a critical eye says her parents will be getting a call home.
she cant even face her father afterwards. nor her dad. they try, she gives them credit for that. but all she sees is failure of the people she was supposed to be.

My Hero Academia: Ambush Simulation AU - Provisional License Exam Pt 2
Part 1
Still the phone convo:
Shouto: All joking aside--
Touya: I never joke about a rumble.
Shouto: All joking aside, I guess you can finally tell me how your exam went.
Touya: ...I suppose I could.
Shouto: ...
Touya: They make you do the thing with the targets?
Shouto: Where did you place yours?
Touya: Everyone in the Vanguard clustered them around their stomach. Figured that's the part of the body everyone instinctively tries to protect when threatened.
Shouto: That's a good point. During that phase, I also found one area where I need to get stronger.
Touya: Yeah?
Shouto: When I went off on my own, I ran into a group of guys from another school. They attacked me with projectiles made from tungsten and I couldn't even scratch it. I need to work on my heat output.
Touya: ....
Shouto: You still there?
Touya: Shouto, do you know the melting point of tungsten?
Shouto: ...no.
Touya: Guess.
Shouto: Just tell me.
Touya: I want to hear you guess.
Shouto: *sighs* 1400 Celsius?
Touya: That's steel. Higher.
Shouto: 1800?
Touya: Titanium. Higher.
Shouto: ...2000?
Touya: You're not even close.
Shouto: What is it?
Touya: The melting point of tungsten is approximately 3400°C. Even I can't melt it, and I'd probably kill myself if I tried.
Shouto: It's that high?
Touya: Highest melting point of the known metals, and twice the temperature a blue flame can reach. And you should know by now orange flames only go up to 1200° max and white are 1500° max, so you couldn't even melt my piercings. Take my advice and stick to something manageable. Like copper and iron. Maybe work your way up to steel eventually. But leave tungsten alone, okay?

what are we? ── bakugo k. (1.4k)⊹ ࣪ ˖ part two
"so.. who here has a secret boyfriend we don't know about?" mina asks the first thing that came to mind not even a minute after this impromptu slumber party that's currently held in yaoyorozu's room
after a long week of training and pro hero studies, you lot decided to why not unwind by having a little sleepover at one of the girls' rooms. yaoyorozu was kind enough to volunteer to hold it in her room as she has never experienced sleepovers with others
you all looked at each other with curiosity. curious if anyone was actually in a committed relationship that the class didn't know about. not like it was their business or anything..
"what? nobody? that's kinda hard to believe.." hagakure comments, genuinely surprised since usually at this age where everyone is in high school, you're bound to get into relationships
"i mean it's like we have the time to mingle around since we're busy with training and on top of that, trying to keep afloat with our academics" tsuyu points out, a finger on her chin as she recalls if anyone actually had free time to spare amidst all the chaos your class has been through
hearing what tsuyu said, mina whines, dramatically flailing her arms around
"ugh i hate that what you said is true, tsuyu-chan.. but what about crushes! do you guys have a crush on anyone in class or anyone in ua?" mina continues to bombard everyone with questions related to romance. to you it almost feels targeted because you're not too sure if she knows something about you
"crushes?" uraraka trails off. all of a sudden she shakes her head vigorously.
"what's wrong uraraka-chan?" tsuyu asks, worried
"oh my god! are you crushing on someone?!" hagakure squeals, "you have someone in mind don't you!"
the girls (minus you, tsuyu and yaoyorozu) start to bombard her with questions
"is it midoriya?!"
"is it iida?!"
"who?!"
"it's nobody!" uraraka defends herself, shaking her hands around. mina pouts but drops the subject.
you didn't even realize that you were holding in your breath til jirou points it out
"what's with the sigh of relief, y/n?" jirou pokes your side jokingly.
wrong move on your part
suddenly there was a certain glint on mina's eyes. like you just walked into her trap
"you haven't said anything since we started talking about crushes, y/n-chan.. anyone in mind?" mina grins mischievously.
"no one" you say abruptly but it turns out your own body betrays you. you can literally feel the heat creeping up to your cheeks
"oh my god she's blushing! WHO! IS IT IN OUR CLASS OR CLASS B? WHO?! WE NEED TO KNOW" hagakure squeals in joy, suddenly clasping your hands together as she shakes you
"it's nobody you guys-"
"i've been meaning to ask, y/n-san.. if there's anything going on between you and bakugo-san" yaoyorozu speaks up for the first time tonight
mina and hagakure both scream in delight
"what makes you say that, yaomomo?" you ask, trying to calm your heartbeat at the mention of the boy you think you're seeing..
you and bakugo had a weird, for lack of better word, "relationship" going on at the moment. one would call it a situationship but you're still not 100% sure if it's even heading to that direction
it all started after the provisional license exams. the same night where he and deku had a brawl at ground beta. right after bakugo and deku got dismissed by aizawa, you bumped into him in the kitchen. obviously scared out of your wits that he was looking all beaten up, you brought him to the nearest bathroom to clean his cuts and bruises
since then you and him had found yourselves in this weird "relationship". sure, he's still the same bakugo you first met during the first day of classes. always brash and rowdy but when it was only the two of you.. he was.. a littler calmer than usual
to others, he was his usual explosive self but when it came to you, his tone would be a little softer. still, it's still rough around the edges but the subtle change is noticeable if you were a close friend of his
overtime, you and bakugo slowly became touchy with each other. there were lingering stares, lingering touches when you two were paired up to spar during training and what not
obviously with this sudden change of attitude towards you, the whole class noticed it. why were you getting treated differently by the king explosion god himself?
and before you even noticed it, you found yourself almost by his side at all times in the dorms. may it be in the kitchen where you're basically his second in command when he was in charge of cooking, in the lounge whenever everyone decides to have a little movie marathon or a little celebration, literally everywhere to the point everyone had made assumptions that you two have something going on
have you guys said anything about your little situation? no
have you guys shared a kiss? maybe
have you guys been caught holding hands? definitely. on multiple occasions
but nobody dared to question it. or else they would've been blown away by boom boom boy himself.
that is until, the girls found an opening which was tonight at yaoyorozu's room, in the middle of your slumber party
"i didn't mean to eavesdrop that one time but i overheard you giving him your notes when he was under house arrest for a few days" yaoyorozu sheepishly admits. she suddenly clasps her hands together and bows as she spews apologies for eavesdropping that one time
and like a domino effect, it seems like all the girls have noticed something about the two of you all along
"that reminds me! when we were practicing for the school festival, one time i saw bakugo teaching y/n how to play drums!" jirou quips
"did you guys notice the look on bakugo's face during the joint training with class 1-b when she got hit by gevaudan?! he was pissed!" uraraka adds
"don't think we didn't notice the look you have on your face whenever bakugo comes home from their remedial classes" hagakure teases
"god i've been dying to know! kirishima keeps telling me that he hears bakugo laughing to himself late at night at times now it's all clicking!" mina gushes
all this time you thought you and bakugo hid it well. then again it's like you two even had the chance to properly talk about whatever you two have going on
"so what do you have to say for yourself, y/n-chan? or cat got your tongue?" mina teases, nudging your shoulder
all the girls lean forward, awaiting for your answer
"... we're friends- yeah that's right! we're just friends you guys" you say awkwardly, scratching the back of your head as a nervous habit to top it all off
mina and hagakure don't buy it
"that's not very nice of you to deny your boyfriend like that" mina teases, poking you multiple times in hopes you break (you almost do)
not wanting to say anything else that could potentially jinx whatever you have going on with the blonde, you shrug. it might be a little embarrassing on your end to admit that you and the infamous bakugo katsuki were in a little dilemma you call a situationship
sensing that you weren't gonna budge anytime soon, mina moves on with the subject. talking about what quirks they wished they have from the class
you took this time to pull out your phone and send a little update to your.. friend
[9:24PM] you: so the girls asked me if i had a boyfriend.. [9:24PM] kitkats: and what did u say?? [9:25PM] you: i said no lol cus i dont have one [9:26PM] kitkats: ?? [9:26PM] kitkats: so am i just an arm accessory now or?
right before you were able to reply back, mina snatches your phone from your hands.
"no texting during the slumber party!" she yells, before taking a peek at who you're messaging
"give it back, mina!" you scream, trying to get your phone back to prevent her from reading what seems to be a new message from bakugo
"oh my god it's bakugo! wait let me send him a pic so he won't disturb our party" she squeals, taking a quick selfie of everyone with you looking all stressed out
"and.. sent!" she smiles proudly. after what seems like torture (it was only a few seconds) mina tosses your phone back to your hands before continuing on whatever you guys were talking about
not even a minute later, bakugo replies
[9:30PM] kitkats: raccoon eyes you better not set yn up with someone else when im literally right fuckin' here

rivals to lovers with bakugou
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
pairing: katsuki bakugou x gn!reader
tags: rivalry, mutual feelings, idiots in love, lots of fighting (as in training fights), petty bakugou, bakugou has a soft spot for you
Tumblr media
you had caught katsuki's eye ever since you defeated the boy on one of your first days at UA
you were on a team with izuku, playing the heroes, while katsuki was on a team with iida, playing the villains
you and izuku had defeated him that day and katsuki swore that he would never lose against any of the two of you again!
he kept giving his all, whenever he got the chance. during the sports festival, the license exam and the internships
the two of you always had similar results, always scoring just a point more or less than the other
katsuki hated that he never got to win against you. those small wins by a point or two wasn't what he wanted!
he wanted to crush you and show you how powerful he really was!
his little rivalry with you slowly started to turn into an obsession
he learned all the small things about you, in an attempt to use them against you
he knew your fighting style better than anyone else!
he knew you better than anyone else!
before he realized it, his resentment towards you had faded away and instead was replaced with affection
he knew you so well and he had fallen in love with those small things about you
katsuki still pretended to hate you, to keep the rivalry going, but he started to get softer around you
you noticed that he'd let you win certain fights. or how he would only end a fight when you were pinned underneath him, instead of knocking you out like he used to
it didn't take a genius to realize that katsuki had fallen in love with you
and perhaps he would start to notice soon, that you had been in love with him for even longer…

thinkin about katsuki.
one of the very first things we learn about him is that he wants to be the number one hero. that’s something we are constantly reminded of throughout the series.
katsuki learns that there’s one major thing standing in the way between him and that goal—his attitude. it starts with him failing the licensing exam and continues as he turns into a hero who is still flawed, but actually wants to do good. he learned his lesson and became a better person towards himself, towards izuku, and towards everyone else.
so i refuse to believe that katsuki yelling at a civilian is just kacchan being kacchan with his abrasive attitude. katsuki knows better—he’s 25 years old now. aizawa says that this isn’t the first time he’s slipped in the charts because of this behavior. why doesn’t he care about his reputation? he grew up idolizing all might, damnit. he knows how important public opinion is when it comes to being number one. why. doesn’t. he. care?
because izuku wasn’t a pro hero yet. what’s the point of being number one when it doesn’t mean surpassing izuku? what’s the point of being number one if it doesn’t mean constantly trying to one-up his rival?
watching katsuki grow up meant watching “i’m gonna be the richest hero of all time and everyone will know my name” turn into “i thought i’d be on your heels—that we’d be competing against each other for the rest of our lives.”
somewhere along the lines, standing side by side with izuku became more important than fame, and helping izuku live his dream became more important than money.
if that’s not love, i don’t know what is.

i love my sister more than anything in this life, i will choose her happiness over mine every time.
-
bakugou katsuki and you, a relationship turned sour as you both headed into your first year of highschool, at two separate hero academies.
you’d been dating since your third year of junior high, and yet he had never come by to meet your family. although, you wouldn’t really want him to. natsuo, fuyumi and shouto were great, but your father was still stuck in his number one mindset.
he’d basically disposed of you once your quirk manifested, you took after your mother after all. your quirk, shrapnel, allowed you to produce and shoot shards of ice at your opponent, but you always ran cold as a result.
shouto, now he was exactly what your father wanted. you’d been allowed to play with your siblings growing up, allowed to do normal childhood things as you watched your twin brother get beaten down by your father. he’d come into your shared childhood bedroom in tears almost every night, and you’d be there to comfort him, every single time.
so when you’d gone to shiketsu to spite your father, you’d essentially split with shouto. developing your own life and your own personality.
all while dating his future classmate.
and when you and bakugou broke up, shouto was furious at the boy. but the blonde haired boy just chalked it up to todoroki being jealous.
until he saw you both side by side at the provisional licensing exam. he didn’t know how he missed it before, but you and todoroki looked exactly alike aside from his two-toned hair and your snowy white locks. the fact that your last name was your mother’s maiden name wasn’t helping him find out shouto was your brother.
you’d found bakugou as you were trying to outrun an entire class from another school, but what you didn’t expect was for bakugou to have a group with him.
an electric type was rather smart, despite the way he looked.
“hey, bakugou. she looks a lot like todoroki, right?” he just stared at you, still. until he smiled, his canines visible as you were frozen in place, your shiketsu cap lying on the ground next to you as you looked up from where you were sat on the ground.
he was planning to attack you.
he sent a cluster of explosions your way, was he trying to kill you?
a block of ice appeared, taking up the blasts force as your brother ran towards you, grabbing your hand and forcing you up.
“todoroki? what the hell are you doing, man?! she’s the enemy!” a spikey, red haired man was shouting at your brother who was currently dodging or deflecting every attack that was headed your way.
“she’s not the enemy, she’s my sister.”
