#iida is a terrible liar

[sunbreathr]

@ppigtails cont from x

❝ But – what if someone sees us ? ❞

Tagging along wasn't Izuku's initial idea. There was so much risk involved with sneaking out – from punishment at being discovered to encountering a stray villain ( especially if one recognised them as U.A students! )

But the anxiety about being caught weighed less than the chance of waking up their teacher ( or worse, Iida ) and Izuku was, admittedly, a terrible liar. At least if he went with her, everyone might be fast asleep when they get back.

❝ If we're doing this, we need to be careful, ❞ Izuku sighs, quickening his steps to fall into place alongside his classmate. ❝ Who knows what sort of villains might be out this late. ❞

random hc: iida is a himbo. not academically, he's incredibly smart in that field, bt just in general. speedy boi doesn't know how to work a potato peel, much less properly plan out a murder for avenging someone. plus he's very nice and tries to understand other people's problems soO, himbo it is

omg wAIT HOLD THAT THOUGHT i actually think iida would be really good at planning a murder if he wanted to LOL LIKE okay beSiDeS his like huge passion for jUsTiCe and righteousness and all that, he’s a really meticulous and hardworking person and i’m pretty sure he would plan out and organise everything down to the sMALLEST DETAIL he would consider every possible thing that could go wrong and come up with plans B, C and D to make sure everything still turns out ok HAHAH

17 WISHES.

Izuku day <3 , black reader

��Cmon blow out the candles birthday boy” you teased him over his shoulder watching his face turn blush at your words and the constant embarrassment wash over him repeatedly through the day, he was the glad that it was almost over - and his face would finally stop heating from the amount of attention he’s received all day.

“Happy birthday Midoriya!” The class singed with joy as the boy blew out the final candles of the day that wrote “17”. “What did you wish for deku?” Ochako hummed, “he can’t tell his secret, or else it won’t come true!” Iida spoke up giving Izuku a great excuse to not reveal his wish- because lord knows he’s a terrible liar.

He said his final thank yous, heading to the dorms in almost a rush to finally have some peace and quiet - until you ran to catch his attention. “Midoriya!” You caught your breath smiling at him and putting your hand on his shoulder, “I almost forgot to give you my present!” You beamed at him. “Oh! You really shouldn’t have! It’s not really a special day or anything but I really appreciate you buying-“ you cut off his rambling - knowing he wouldn’t stop anytime soon and handing him the black box. “Open it!” He carefully opened the top, eyes widening at gift.

“Something about you made me think you like bracelets! And I wanted to give you something that you’d like forever so, I got you this.” The silver bracelet with the initials “I.M” sat on the jewelry, eyes meeting yours he didn’t know how to thank you. “Thank you so much Y/N, this is a beautiful gift.” You cheeks rose in heat at the praise, “no worries! I hope you had an amazing day today midoriya!” You rolled on your heels, heading towards your own dorm as he took ahold of your shoulder making you stop

“Do you.. wanna eat somewhere sometime?” he could barely look in you in the eyes, not wanting to face rejection; especially on his birthday. You smiled nodding at him, “I’d love to.” You kissed his cheek softly, “goodnight Izuku.”

maybe wishes do come true.

Music

Warnings: TONS OF FLUFF small misunderstandings.

Relationship: Tenya x reader

This is just for fun!! It’s my first time writing fics so please have forgiveness. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Oh of course! I will be there at 7 to help clean up!” You promised Midnight.

You offered to help clean up after the musical, even though you had preformed to your wits end, you felt like you had to help out in some way. Luckily, you didn’t have anything else planned that day. It was 5:30, so it gave you a short time to rest.

“I will see you later!!” You said as enthusiastically as you could, in the tired state that you were. You grabbed your coat and swiftly left the theater, hoping to get to your dorm at soon as you could. You were so glad Midnight didn’t catch you sprinting down the halls,

It wasn’t Midnight.

“You there!! No running while in school! We are UA stude-“ You hear someone demand a little down the hall from you.

It was Tenya Iida. A good friend of yours. Well, you say “friend” but someone might not particularly call it a “friendship”. You two banter quite a lot in school. You shouting about letting go and “living a little”, while he’s...well...him. But you are starting to have a soft spot for the guy, so, you hear him out.

“We should be setting an example for future students! You are not to be running down the halls at top speeds!” You snicker at the remark finding it funny how uptight he was. “I’m sorry! I’m sorry! I just wanted to get back to my dorm so I could rest. I won’t make the same mistake again.” He excused you and headed back on his path.

You never got to ask where he was going.

. . .

You opened your phone to check the time. Apparently you had lost yourself in your dinner, cause it was 6:55. It’s fine. Midnight not going to be there to know I am late. Still you headed out the door quickly. This time you didn’t run. The mental image of his complaining and strange robotic movements was burned into your mind. You almost felt guilty.

You reached the hallway.

“Finally” you panted, hands on your knees trying to catch a breath. In the silence of the empty hallway, you heard a faint piano in the music room down the hall. You expected to be alone today. You slowly crept closer to the music room. ‘I could just tell them I’m cleaning up and to carry on practicing’ you thought, reasoning with your ridiculous actions.

You opened the door slowly, as to not disturb the melody. On the other hand, you didn’t want to shock them if they saw you. You tiptoed in, eyes lazer focused on the door in caution of shutting it too loud. You were just about to warn them...

Then you heard him sing.

You recognized the voice.

“I used to hear a simple song”

You couldn’t believe what you were hearing. You never thought the pretentious, stuck up would be into cheesy love songs. Let alone one that YOU of all people knew (but would NEVER admit to liking).

“That was until you came along”

You decided to wait till the end of the song to clean. He was too into the music.

“You took my broken melody”

“And now I hear a symphony”

You never heard him sing so openly before. He looked so confident. He radiated a brightness you haven’t seen in him until now. You saw the sparks in his eyes...

His hands slowly drifted off of the piano keys, leaving you absolutely speechless.

“H-hey, I am SO so sorry for bothering you..but I’m-“ quit stammering Y/N!! Pull yourself together Y/N!!!! “I’m here to help organize the music room”

“You were listening?” Tenya asked, unsure of what all you heard.

“Wellllll, I might’vvveeee” if he knew how impressed you were, the whole dynamic of you and him would be off. The only way you have been able to talk to him before now was breaking his rules to get his attention. You were scared that would go away.

“It’s no big deal though, I will just clean and go. No worries! You can keep playing!” You spoke almost as fast as you wanted to run out of that awkward situation.

“I haven’t told anyone, but I guess you have now figured out that I play piano. My bother taught me. I didn’t want anyone to know in case of looking like I am trying to ‘show off’, when that is far from the case. I simply like the music.” He babbled on, explaining himself.

“Sooo, are we just going to ignore the fact you were playing a love song?” You teased, digging through boxes for a missing prop.

“Well, um- that is-“ you turn to see a beet red Tenya with eyes almost burning through the floor. “Just..for..practice..?” He was a terrible liar. That was another thing you found quite cute.

“Aww Tenyaaaaa!! I didn’t know you liked love songssss! That’s adorable.” You cooed

“Y/N. I will not confirm, nor deny enjoying songs about romantic feelings or attraction. This is a secret kept between us and if you break that, you might not have my full trust”

“Of course, I get it, no talking about how adorable you are, blah blah blah. Anyways, I’m done cleaning, wanna walk back to the dorms together?” You said nonchalantly. You realllyy wanted to walk back with him.

“Wait. Why do you want to walk back with me? You seem really happy.” He was slightly smiling but his eyes told you something different.

“I..like hanging out with you..?”

“But in school you’re always telling me to get out more. I thought I brought everyone down”

You were frozen. You didn’t know how to explain it. This all came so sudden. You weren’t ready to tell him. You weren’t even sure you wanted to tell yourself.

“I only do that cause it gets your attention. It’s stupid thinking and I definitely don’t want to hurt you. It..just was the only thing I felt I could do.” You rocked forward and back on your feet itching for a reply.

“I’m just glad you don’t hate me! Over time, I started to li- well, look forward..to seeing you and your antics. Looks like we had the same idea.” He spoke with a light hearted tone, trying to hide the smile that was slowly peaking on his face.

“Well. I’m glad we are on the same team here! Let’s go ya dork! We don’t want Aizawa getting worried!” You wave for him to pick up the pace.

“Hah! Look! Now you’re the one running in the halls!!”

“Y/N!!”

doki doki todoroki

synopsis: where todoroki’s first love blindsides him and he feels like the whole class is leaving him out of the loop. 

word count: 1.8k

genre: fluff, fluff, and more fluff 

warnings: just todoroki being a clueless baby 

a/n: hello! aaaa this is entirely self-indulgent, but it’s my first post! i saw “doki doki todoroki” float around here somewhere and then this happened hjsdhjdhj. anyway, hope you enjoy!

He brushes it off the first time it happens, wrote it off as adrenaline from today’s sparring.

He brushes it off the second time. It was just a harmless scare after all, no shame in that.

He brushes it off the third time, the odd timing soon forgotten in favor of resuming his studies.

Todoroki doesn’t see the correlation for a while. How it was after seeing your exhilarated smile in the middle of a hard fight, after hearing you laugh once Mina startled him, after watching the triumphant smile on your face grow once he explained the problem to you.

He notices it the fourth, fifth, sixth time. Understandably, he’s confused. No amount of education or training would’ve prepared him for this. Nothing would’ve, other than hard-earned experience that he never got. Looking it up (as he found himself doing a lot these days the more he socialized) only earned him the definition of tachycardia and a grocery list of possible diagnoses ranging from anxiety to heart disease.

So much for the internet.

The ringing of the lunch bell pulled him out of his “research”, and he filed the thought away for later as he slipped his phone back into his pocket.

Later becomes three weeks.

Todoroki’s lost count at this point of how many times his heart suddenly went haywire, thudding against his ribs and sending blood rushing through his ears. How is world suddenly narrowed to just you whenever you spoke to him, and how he wanted to hear your voice again even though you had just stopped speaking. He finally drew the line once Midoriya pointed out his state of disarray at lunch.

“Todoroki-kun, are you sick? Your face is really red,” Midoriya had his chopsticks halfway to his mouth when he paused at the sight of Todoroki staring listlessly at his soba. Unbeknownst to him, Todoroki was too busy listening to you laugh at whatever Uraraka and Iida were talking about to focus on his soba. Hell, he couldn’t focus on anything lately and he had no idea why.

“Hm? Oh, yes, I’m fine.”

“Are you sure?”

“Yes.” No. He doesn’t voice this, and instead lets his Quirk pull the heat away from his cheeks for him as the air chills around him. Midoriya keeps watching him like he doesn’t believe him, but returns to his own lunch anyway.

“Hey, Todoroki, pfft- you have to listen to this. Iida just-” You don’t wait for his answer. You don’t have to. Todoroki finds himself hanging on to your every word anyway, smiling to himself (oh, the tiniest smile compared to yours. He doesn’t think anything will compare) as you struggle to recount your conversation without dissolving into giggles, Iida admonishing you for your loud laughter with an embarrassed flush.

Whatever this feeling is, he doesn’t mind, but he would like to know. He doesn’t notice Uraraka and Midoriya curiously watching the exchange, food forgotten. Nor does he notice Mina giggling with Hagakure as they nudged each other over the seats, dragging any of the class they could into their little whisper circle. The bell rings, and he already wishes you could’ve continued the story.

Later, you promise. He holds you to that.

Kaminari slings an arm over his shoulders in the locker room as they change into their hero costumes for afternoon classes, with Sero on his other side, and he stumbles from both shock and the added weight on him, his boot half-dangling from his foot.

“So, Todoroki-kun~” Kaminari’s lilting tone floating in from his right immediately sends his guard up, and he stared at him warily.

“How’s spring feeling for ya?” Sero continued from his left.

“…Isn’t it autumn right now?” Why were they talking about spring in the middle of October? Todoroki was too busy staring at Sero like he’d grown a second head to notice the collective silent groan ripple through the locker room.

“Oh my god, he really is clueless,” Kaminari whispers, Sero nodding along with a dumbstruck expression. He side-eyes them as he tugs his boot on the rest of the way, unamused. Clueless about what?

“Will he be okay?” It was Sero who spoke this time, completely ignoring the fact that they were having a conversation right over his head.

“I don’t know, man, he should be, right?”

“I’m literally right here. Did something happen?”

“A-Ah, nothing, nothing, just… checking up on you, you know?” As socially inept as he was, even he could recognize from a mile away that Kaminari was a terrible liar.

“…Why?” Okay, now he was really confused. He looked around the room to see if anyone could give him any hints, to no avail. Kirishima was too busy facepalming to notice his confusion, Ojiro was suddenly very interested in tying off his gi, and both Tokoyami and Bakugou were completely ignoring their antics. In a last attempt to figure out what the hell was even going on, he turned to Midoriya… who was trying to desperately look anywhere else other than at him. Something was up, and if Kaminari was involved, he didn’t have a good feeling about it.

“Y-You know, uh…” Kaminari was floundering for an answer, and sighed in relief once Iida came in to announce that they had five minutes to be ready. The pressure disappeared off his shoulders and Todoroki finished putting on the rest of his costume, the deep sense of unease tugging at the corner of his mind. There was something he wasn’t picking up on, and it felt like everyone but him knew.

He brushed it off to focus on class. Today was sparring day, after all, and Todoroki was partnered up with you. Maybe he’d see that smile again. The thought of it made fire lick at his fingers during the spar much quicker than usual.

He wasn’t disappointed, his heartbeat pounding in his ears even as the adrenaline fizzled out.

Tomorrow morning finds him face-to-face with a grinning Mina and an overexcited Hagakure outside the classroom before class starts, along with the answers to his plight way sooner than he expected. They had called out to him and, before he knew it, he was cornered against the window with their too-wide smiles beaming up at him, hungry for the romance gossip they had been chasing after all year. Or, well, he was pretty sure Hagakure was smiling, at least. Mina, on the other hand, resembled the Cheshire Cat too closely for his liking.

“You like Y/N, don’t you, Todoroki-kun?”

“I don’t see why I shouldn’t?” To say he was confused was an understatement, but there’d been a lot of that lately so he just came to accept it. “Y/N is a good person with an impressive Quirk, so-”

“No, not like thaaat!” Mina wailed, and Todoroki blinked owlishly at the two girls as they both lamented the “densest pretty boy of UA”. Their words, not his. Did… did he say something wrong?

“Like what, then?”

“Ro-man-tic-al-ly!”

Todoroki bluescreened.

“Ro…man…?”

“Like, do you always end up looking at her whenever you’re in the same room?” Hagakure was practically vibrating from excitement, “Do you always want to listen to her or be near her? Or does your heart go ‘doki doki’ whenever you’re with her?!”

“Doki…doki?” Todoroki‘s brain, still rebooting from earlier, struggled to process the onslaught of information Hagakure was slamming him with. So far, however, all the answers he came up with were ‘Yes. Yes. A million times, yes’. “I… guess something’s been wrong with my heart lately? I looked it up and it said it was nothing to worry about, so-”

“Something’s not wrong, dummy! It’s love! And Y/N likes you back!” Mina exclaimed, and both her and Hagakure squealed as they celebrated finally having their first taste of high school romance, clasping hands and cheering.

“Doki doki Todoroki!” Hagakure cheered, Mina parroting her as they rode the high of their excitement. Meanwhile, Todoroki stared dumbly at the two girls in front of him, the dots slowly connecting in his mind. Everything was happening way too quick. And you liked him back? Wait, is that-

“Is that why Kaminari and Sero asked me how I was yesterday?”

“Ugh, that Kaminari~! He can’t even be subtle!” Todoroki could hear the pout in Hagakure’s voice, and Mina sighed and nodded in agreement. Well that answers that, at least. Now for the other million and one questions he had...

“So… what am I supposed to do now?”

“Confess!” Came Hagakure’s immediate response.

Well, that makes sense. Now that he has a grasp on what he’s feeling and he knows that you feel the same, it’s only logical that he should make them known.

“Okay, where is she?”

“In the classr-”

“Nuh-uh, hold it,” Mina stopped Todoroki from barging into the classroom, and he stared down at her, confusion mounting. Wasn’t she super excited just two seconds ago? What happened now?

“Minaaaa!” She ignored Hagakure’s impatient wail and poked him in the chest.

“You can’t just go in there and confess in the classroom in front of everybody!”

“…Why not?” He just had to tell you, so better sooner than later, right?

“Oh jeez, okay, um,” Mina pinched the bridge of her nose, trying to think of a way to explain this to easily the densest person she had the pleasure of knowing. And she knew Kaminari, for Christ’s sake, “It isn’t as romantic if you just go in there and blurt it out in front of everybody, and it puts her on the spot too, would you want that?”

No, you hated being put on the spot. He shook his head and Mina sighed in relief.

“Okay, so, what you’re gonna do is…”

“Did you need to talk to me about something, Todoroki?”

Ah, there it was again. Could you hear his heart beating out of his chest from where you stood?

Classes had ended for the day and Mina had instructed him to confess after school at a specific spot (much to Hagakure’s chagrin, but she eventually agreed that it would be more romantic this way. Not like he knew what romantic looked like.) So, here he was, veering off your usual course from the dorms to this spot Mina had pointed out to him. It was where the trees broke just enough so the sunset could peek through the leaves. As inexperienced in, well, everything as he was, Todoroki had to admit Mina knew what she was talking about.

“Todoroki?”

The words he was told to recite sailed out the window the moment the time came, the light of the sunset casting you in a warm glow and God this wasn’t fair-

“…I like you.”

Oh, shit. Did he say that? Okay, yeah, he did. Oops.

He almost regrets it, but then he sees your lips bloom with a smile and the world goes quiet.

“I like you too, Todoroki.”

You crushed him in a hug and Todoroki wrapped his arms around you, smiling as he felt your own heart racing against his. His heart beating a mile a minute didn’t sound too bad anymore.

As long as it beat for you.

CHAPTER 10:

"You look nice, Deku" Uraraka smiled, her hands held behind her back as she rocked back and forth on the balls of her feet in a childish manner, looking at her green haired friend. "Is there anyone in particular you're trying to impress?" she gave him a knowing look that Izuku stuttered and blushed to.

"No! O-of course not" he immediately denied and averted his eyes when that only seemed to make Uraraka's smirk widen. Izuku knew he was a terrible liar and Uraraka could be very scary sometimes. "But um, hypothetically speaking.. if I /were/ trying to impress someone- which I'm not- but hypothetically speaking do you think they'll.. you know. Be impressed? Hypothetically."

Uraraka looked her friend up and down. Izuku's fashion sense has definitely improved since the beginning of their first year. Both Tsuyu and herself had made sure to teach Deku and Todoroki a thing or two about dressing themselves since they were completely clueless sometimes. Midoriya was wearing brown, cuffed corduroy pants with a forest green oversized short sleeve button up, a lighter green long sleeve underneath that to create layers. The red shoes were never going away though and Uraraka gave up in trying to get him to wear another pair of shoes. He looked good and Uraraka noticed how his hair was a bit neater too so he obviously put a bit of extra effort into trying to style his curls. In fact, looking around the common room it seemed that Deku wasn't the only one who put a little extra effort into their appearance today. Half the boys there looked like they were going off to a party instead of a casual class outing. Even Iida looked like he was trying out a new hairstyle. No glasses either.

"Umm, Uraraka-san?" Izuku waved his hand in front of the girl's face to get her attention. She zoned out for a bit there and she blinked, turning to face him again.

"Oh, right! Well, /hypothetically speaking/ right?" she smiled and he nodded, "I think they'll be very impressed." Deku beamed and her eyes shifted to Todoroki who was just arriving downstairs. "Oh, look! There's Todoroki-kun. Let's go talk" she grabbed Deku's hand in hers and took him with her. He looked very good! Todoroki's aesthetic was more of a simplistic/classy style with neutral colors. This time he decided to switch it up and was wearing a white t-shirt with an unbuttoned, loose fitting pale blue and white striped dress shirt over that. He had black jeans and white sneakers too. He looked very good. "Oooo~ is there anyone /you're/ trying to impress, Todoroki-kun?" Ochako teased.

"Yes."

Ochako didn't expect such a direct answer but giggled anyway at her blunt friend. Deku on the other hand didn't find it as funny.

"Is Bakugou here yet?" Shoto changed the subject and looked around the common room but didn't spot the explosion quirk user anywhere. He felt a little disappointed.

"No, Kacchan isn't here. Neither is Kirishima-kun" Izuku really tried to keep the bitterness out of his tone. He knew that they were best friends but did they really have to be glued at the hip 24/7? Deku doesn't like the way he starts to feel when he thinks of those two together but he can't help it.

"Oh" Shoto mumbled. There was an awkward silence where no one said anything for a few seconds until Uraraka couldn't stand it and broke it.

"So how are you feeling, Todoroki-kun? Are you still tired or are you feeling a bit better from earlier?" Ochako questioned. That got Izuku's attention and he turned to Todoroki with a curious expression. Was he sick? Todoroki didn't mention anything to him today. He wondered why he didn't tell him.

"I feel better, thank you. I'm excited to be going out with my friends" he smiled briefly and Izuku returned it. After that things started to go back to normal as they talked about what stores they wanted to go to and if they had anything in particular they wanted to buy. The common room was filled with brief conversation before the 'ding' of the elevator was heard and everyone turned to look at a nervous Kirishima standing on the far opposite side of a bored looking Bakugou. Izuku felt a knot form in his throat and Todoroki felt his heart skip a beat, their faces heating up a little at what girl Kacchan was wearing. He looked good. Hell, even if he was in his normal body and wore that he'd look good.

"You're here!" Mina rushed forward to hug her two friends in a crushing hug which Kirishima gladly returned. The girls may or may not be feeling smug at how everyone reacted to seeing Bakugou. Yeah, they did that.

"I said I would go with you extras, didn't I? Now let go, pinky" Bakugou groaned. She smiled wide before stepping back.

"This'll be so much fun!" Mina jumped up and down.

"Everyone please form a single file line for attendance! As class president I must make sure everyone is accounted for before we vacate school grounds" Iida made sure to grab everyone's attention by speaking loud and clear as well as waving his arms about. Where he pulled the clipboard from no one knows but Iida started to check off names in the class roster to submit to Aizawa sensei once they come back in a few hours. "Alright. Everyone is here. We can go now" he nodded in confirmation.

The class had to take the bus to go to the mall so Iida stayed by the door until everyone was inside before going in himself. Bakugou was planning to sit with Kirishima but the redhead as soon as he was in the bus went and sat beside Sero instead. Katsuki was confused since they always sit together and even Sero was looking between the pair in confusion. "You don't mind, right Bakubro?" Kirishima awkwardly scratched the back of his neck. Bakugou just shrugged and moved on to find an empty seat to which Kirishima let out a breath he didn't even know he was holding.

"What was that?" Sero questioned once Bakugou was out of earshot.

"What was what?" Kirishima turned to him.

"That. You always sit with Bakugou so why all of a sudden did you decide to sit next to me? I don't mind but I was a little caught off guard, man. You know, you've been acting weird ever since the night we played games in my room. Is everything cool?" Sero had an idea of what was happening but he wanted to hear it from Kiri himself.

"Yeah, everything's good. I just need to sort some things out for myself first" he explained and Sero nodded, leaving it at that. Kirishima appreciated that about Sero. He knew if it was Mina or Kaminari they wouldn't stop pestering him about it. Kirishima just wanted some time to hopefully figure out why he was all of a sudden feeling so weird around Katsuki.

On the other end of the bus, towards the back, Bakugou found an empty seat. Everyone else seemed to be already sitting with someone else but he didn't really mind it. Once seated, Bakugou put his elbow up on the edge of the window and looked outside. He felt someone slightly tap his shoulder though and looked up to a shy Koda. 'May I sit here?' he signed and Bakugou raised an eyebrow. He rolled his eyes and signed back 'go for it' and Koda smiled a little, quickly sitting down beside Bakugou. Aizawa did mention that because of his quirk, he may experience hearing loss in the future if he didn't take the proper precautions so Bakugou has been taking JSL classes from Koda since the beginning of their second year and developed a somewhat mutual understanding with the guy. He really wasn't all that bad, just a little quiet. And while they weren't friends friends, Bakugou knew that if he ever needed a quiet place to study or just hang out for a bit without talking, he could go to Koda's room. The same went for Bakugou. If Koda ever wanted to spar or wanted pointers to help in improving his fighting skills, Bakugou is available.

Now that everyone had a seat, the bus began to move. The ride was going to take approximately fifteen to twenty minutes so he just wanted to use the break to relax. Bakugou could tell Koda wanted to say something based on the way he would look at him every few minutes but then look away though. "What is it?" he finally asked a little less than halfway into the trip and Koda shook his head. "I know you want to say something, now what is it?"

Koda looked hesitant at first but then signed 'how are you feeling?' with a sincere look. Maybe if it was someone else Bakugou would have told them off for getting into his business but Koda was someone who earned his respect and admiration throughout their time together in UA and who he saw as an equal.

"Why do you ask?" he asked instead, a bit defensive, and Koda responded by signing 'this is a big change and I was just wondering how you were doing.' Bakugou shrugged. "It isn't something I can't handle. Besides, today is the last day of the quirk so I should be back to normal by tomorrow morning" Bakugou mumbled, adding in a "thanks" as an afterthought. Honestly speaking, Koda has been the only one who's asked him how he felt about this whole quirk situation. The rest of his classmates all just seemed to be having fun with it and while he didn't mind, it was nice to be asked.

'You're always welcome to come hang out with me and my bunny if you ever need quiet time,' Koda offered. 'He told me he misses the angry blonde boy with the warm hands" he joked. Bakugou smirked a little with a "tch, sure whatever. Tell 'im I miss the furball too" leaving his lips. After that Bakugou and Koda fell into a comfortable silence where Bakugou closed his eyes to rest for the few minutes they had left on the bus ride.

Everyone else in class 3-A never thought they'd see the day where they all wished they were in Koda's place. The anivoice boy was sitting perfectly still so as to not wake the pretty blonde that had leaned his head on the other's shoulder sometime along the trip and was now sleeping peacefully on him.

( this fan art isn't in correlation with the story chapter but oH MY GOD LOOK HOW PRETTY GIRL BAKUGOU IS- 😩)

[3d-wifey]

Among Us AU (Students)

I'm picturing this as them being actual characters in the game, not them playing the game.

Let's get the colors out of the way first:

Kiri is red, Denki is yellow, Bakugou is orange, Mina is pink, Deku is dark green, Tsu is lime, Iida is dark blue, Todoroki is white, Ochako is brown, Mirio is cyan, Tamaki is black, and Shinsou is purple.

Best Imposters: Mirio, DEKU, Shinsou, Tamaki, and Bakugou

Best Crewmates: IIDA, Deku, Todoroki, Tsu

Iida is probably the fastest crewmate, so nobody bothers going after him.

Wears the safety mask.

He calls regular emergency meetings as "check-ups" and is very adamant about the buddy system.

Can be seen chopping the air whenever he "thinks" he saw someone venting and when he's arguing during discussions.

Usually takes charge during discussions and if he dies, then Mirio takes charge

You'll probably find him in security watching the cameras.

It's very obvious whenever he's the importer.

He literally never vents.

He sticks to snapping necks and then speeding off so fast you can't catch him on the cameras

But he always gives himself away by getting super defensive when anybody asks him a question

"Where were you, Iida?"

"My location during the murder is none of your concern. I don't have to tell you anything at all. In fact, you can come see me scan in Medbay. Actually, don't! You might be the impostor yourself, Midoriya! Trying to pull the wool over our eye–"

"Yeah, go ahead and vote him out. 😪"

Mina, Denki, and Eijiro all dance around Bakugou while he's doing his tasks like cheerleaders and it pisses him the hell off because he can't focus.

Kirishima picks up any babies or pets that were left behind, even if he was the imposter.

He wears the ninja headband because they look "manly".

He honestly hates being the imposter because he gets so stressed out.

Usually just sticks to sabotaging.

He's really reluctant to kill and when he does, it is super sloppy.

One of those alien imposters that eat the crewmates. 🥴

He doesn't really defend himself if the crew starts suspecting him tho.

"I'm sorry I killed you, Shoto. That was super unmanly. 😞"

Shoto's ghost: 😐

Speaking of Shoto, he very rarely does tasks.

The only reason he's a good crewmate is because he's so quiet, the imposter won't even notice he's in the same room when they vent or kill someone.

Wears nothing but his suit, but can be persuaded to wear the halo.

You'll probably find him just wandering around in the halls, so he's an easy kill.

He's one of those Chaotic Neutral characters that say you can vote them out if they're wrong.

"I think I saw Kaminari kill Midoriya...but I could be wrong. You guys can just vote me out if I'm wrong."

He and Deku are very good at doing double kills and then venting right after.

He kills with knives or by impaling and then just walks off because he forgets he can vent.

But, he's not a good imposter by himself because he's kinda forgetful and doesn't make good arguments for himself.

"Shoto's faking tasks."

"No, I'm not. 😐"

Kirishima, Ochako, and Tsu are really reluctant to vote anyone out.

Everyone hates when they're the last people left because they usually throw the entire game.

While Kirishima and Tsu could be persuaded with evidence, Ochako usually just skips.

"Do we really have to vote them out? I mean...do you actually have proof?"

"I literally saw them kill Tsu."

"I don't know. I'm just gonna skip."

Ochako has to snap people's necks because she's too poor to afford a gun 😔.

Ochako, Mirio, and Mina refuse to kill anyone with pets or babies. They're murderers, not monsters.

Ochako and Tsu wear matching pink flowers.

Bakugou is a terrible crewmate, merely because he throws wild accusations until they stick (mostly at Deku)

“Deku’s the imposter!”

“Bakugou...Deku’s dead this round. 👁👄👁”

He gets so mad anytime the crew wants to vote him out, even if he is the imposter.

"I think it was Bakugou."

"No, the hell it wASN'T!"

"You've just been a little sus, dude."

"I WAS DOING MY TASK THIS WHOLE TIME AND YOU PIECES OF SHIT THINK IT'S ME?!? ARE YOU DEADASS?!💥🖐🏻🤬"

"What are you getting so mad for? 👀"

"I'M "GETTING MAD" BECAUSE YOU BACK ALLEY RAT TURDS ARE BLAMING ME, KNOWING DAMN WELL YOU SAW ME DOING TASKS! I'M NOT THE-"

And he's a petty bitch so he never does his tasks as a ghost. He just grumbles and follows Kiri around.

Wears that backwards hat because he thinks it looks cool, but don't say anything about it or he will take it off.

Now, he's really in his element as the imposter.

🌠Gaslighting: the game🌠

Deku better hope they never get paired up together, because Bakugou will follow him around and report him as soon as he kills.

"Deku's the imposter. I caught his dumbass lacking."

"K-Kacchan? 🥺"

He prefers to work by himself, but he'll corporate with Kiri, Denki, or Mina.

Weapon of choice is a knife because it's hands-on and he really likes to...get into character.

Tsu and Mina are both imposter types that eat people.

They also have a ton of pets and babies with them at all times

Mina will never empty the garbage.

Ever.

She also wears those cute devil horns.

Tsu always does her tasks as a ghost and then hovers by the abandoned babies/pets.

"Has anybody seen Tsu?"

Tsu: 🐸❤👶🏽

She's also really good at telling when someone is lying, that's why she's one of the first killed.

Denki tries his best, but...

"Leave the electrical tasks to me!"

And then he comes back like: 👍🏻🥴👍🏻

Just completely fried.

He wears that posted note that says "Dum" because he thinks its "ironic"...nobody even bothers telling him it's not.

Really reluctant to kill, but he doesn't understand how to sabotage so it's his only option. He just uses a gun because it seems less personal.

"Sorry to do this to ya, dude. But you know how it goes. 🔫😗✌🏼"

Shinsou's power makes him win every game as an imposter. He's basically OP.

"Hey, Shinsou! Did you just vent?"

"Did you?"

"No–"

"Yeah, how bout you come jump on this knife 😼🔪"

Nobody ever sees him because he likes traveling through the vents and it's crazy because no one ever questions him either.

Sleeps in the vents.

He wears the red beanie.

He generally sticks to popping out of a vent, snapping necks, and going back into the vents.

Knows the vent system of every map like the back of his hand.

Sometimes he uses a knife if he's feeling ✨ᖴᗩᑎᑕY✨

A horrible crewmate.

He'll be sleeping in places he shouldn't be.

Like, he'll do some of his tasks, but he's not running to fix the O2 or the Reactor.

The alarms could be blaring and he'll be like:

"I'm sure somebody'll get that 😴."

He never brings anything to the discussion AT ALL.

He just votes with the majority, honestly.

He literally can not be found in the entire ship and you'll only see him at discussions, then he disappears like a shadow.

So, it's obvious that he rarely gets killed.

He only really pairs up with Deku (and he's usually the one that kills Shinsou)

Poor Tamaki.

He, like Denki, tries his best.

Please, God, don't leave him alone.

He tries to stay with Mirio or Kiri when doing tasks.

He wears that little green plant on his head 🥺.

The thought of there being a murderer around every corner stresses him the fuck out, so his hands are too shaky to do wires.

Doesn't like long tasks, they leave him too exposed.

If you think he's nervous during tasks, imagine him during discussions.

It's like doing back to back presentations on a topic you never researched.

He tries to be helpful by adding his two cents, but there are definitely some...big personalities in the group.

"I...think I s-saw orange vent."

"What the hell are you mumbling about?! Speak up, dammit!"

"N-nevermind, it's no use. 😞"

Now, he's surprisingly a really good imposter.

He's one of the few that nobody ever expects.

He works better with Mirio or Kirishima, and while he prefers to just sabotage, he isn't afraid to eat a bitch.

Tentacles come out of his stomach, so he's just waiting in decontamination like:

🧍🏻‍♂️🐙

You wouldn't think Mirio would be a good imposter, but that's EXACTLY what he wants you to think.

He's smarter than he let's on and he plays dumb to his advantage.

"Mirio, why didn't you go to reactor when the alarm went off?"

"I was looking for my buddy, Tamaki. And I got a bit lost."

"Why didn't you just use your map—"

"Heh, we should just skip, right? 😅👍🏻"

Uses his big boy muscles to snap necks and then self-reports.

Says a corny dad joke before he kills someone.

"Hey, What does a liar do after he dies?"

"Wha—"

"He lies still. Heh, get it? 👱🏻"

"😐"

"👱🏻🔪"

Wears a banana peel on his head and I feel like that needs no explanation.

He relies heavily on his quirk to move around as an imposter and a crewmate.

He just fucking pops out of the ground.

This also means he can catch imposters in the act.

He works well with anyone, but he still makes a good imposter by himself.

He really likes the Sked because of the simple design.

Follows people around for fun and his dumbass gets voted off because of it.

Uses his quirk to pop through walls and scare people.

"Hah. Key swipe, huh? 👱🏻"

Always swipes his key perfectly every time.

He does all of the tasks that nobody else wants to, including his own.

"What did you call an emergency meeting for, Mirio?"

"I just missed you guys. ☺"

"..."

"Vote him out."

Now, Izuku is really good in either role.

This is partially because of a little notebook he keeps filled with stats on the crewmates.

It also holds notes on how long it takes to complete different tasks, multiple layouts of the different ships, a list of combinations for O2, etc.

This comes in handy during discussions.

"Wait. Mina, you came from the labs all the way to the office to call a meeting? And you said it took you four minutes to get here while running, but that's, at least, a fifteen-minute journey, even if you ran at your maximum speed. The only people who could get here that fast are Iida, Mirio, and I. But, there is a vent that leads from the labs to storage and you could probably get here in four minutes if you used it. Also, if you saw Tamaki kill Todoroki, why didn't you just report the body—"

"Oh my God, Izuku. Just vote me out. 😒"

After finishing his tasks, he usually goes to admin to keep an eye on the body count. If not there, he'll be taking notes in the cafeteria.

He gets really focused on his tasks, so he's kind of an easy kill.

He has a little green baby on his head and his name is Kota 😌.

The notebook also helps him out when he's the imposter.

He knows which rooms have vents and where they lead.

Nobody ever suspects sweet baby Izuku to be the killer 🥺 no, not wittle baby boy.

Nobody, but Katsuki.

Literally, if there's no concrete evidence against him, hardly anyone thinks it's him.

And Katsuki isn't exactly trustworthy when it comes to Izuku, but he's literally right every time.

The king of sabotage.

He'll hit the lights, lock the door to Electrical, turn on O2, stab someone in the dark, and then vent to the other side of the ship.

As I said earlier, he's really good at getting double kills and then venting away.

He's real handy with a knife, but he has a strength-based quirk so he could snap necks if he wants.

They hardly ever win by finishing all of their tasks, because Mirio keeps following people around, Katsuki doesn't do tasks as a ghost, Kiri doesn't know how to upload the files, Shinsou sleeps through every alarm, Shoto forgets he has a map and gets lost, and Denki won't do his unless Iida chases him around and forces him.

God help these children 😩.

[stalebriochebuns]

I know I don’t post but I wanna praise My Hero’s world building so bad / a Bakugou Katsuki appreciation post.

I wanna talk about society, specifically it’s views on heroism.

Bakugou and Deku are products of their society obviously. But what I don’t think people see is that they’re meant to be different extremes of the same problem.

Hero worship.

The problem is that society has given a specific set of criteria that defines a hero... ie a Licence. It’s the whole thing Stain despised, the idea that a hero no longer can be defined by their deeds or who they save but by a government issued card for passing a test. It completely takes away from the concept of a hero existing for the people and turns it into straight capitalism.

There’s a quote that I heard and can’t remember where it came from that goes along the lines of ‘A villain can exist without a hero, but a hero cannot exist without a villain.’ Which I think is true, being a hero revolves around the existence of villains but that’s entirely ignored in BNHA’s world.

And those heroes are glorified. Put on a pedestal by civilians, and I’m not saying they shouldn’t be, they’re heroes but what it results in is expectations for the next generation to live up to. So children are encouraged to be like those hero’s and unwittingly the parents place value on children based on their quirks. They’ve internalised this idea that Good quirks = greatness. And it’s not something new, often times fiction is a reflection of reality, because reality gives context for the issues within that fictional world. You’ll always find things that remind you of the real world. Here this idea that what you’re born with biologically determines greatness reminds me of how Chinese family’s used to value male babies over female babies, simply because that’s part of my culture. Others might read into it differently. These issues are transcendental, that is why there can be so many interpretations.

Anyway, willingly or not, the adults perpetuate this idea of Good Quirk = Greatness, thus stigmatising No Quirk/ bad Quirk = Failure.

Deku is quirkless, he’s the opposite of what society wants and therefore suffers at the hands of hero worship. He’s pushed aside as the minority, and if you think about it that 20% of the population being quirkless is going to mainly consist of the older generation since quirks are genetically inherited so he’s really insulated, I wouldn’t be surprised if the first person he met his age who was also quirkless was Melissa (From The Two Heroes movie). His own mother telling him she’s ‘Sorry’ after he finds out that he’s quirkless only backing up this idea that he’s different and that he should be pitied. And we look up to our parents, so coming from Inko, Izuku was on the way to internalising that view also. And in some ways he has, I might be wrong about this but when he finds out that Melissa is Quirkless he apologises to her also, he’s doing to others exactly what had been done to him because that’s what humans do, we replicate behaviour.

Bakugou is exactly what they want and from the moment he’s gotten his quirk he’s not only been put on a pedestal by peers but by adults too, adults who should be his superiors are putting him above themselves, no wonder he gets an inferiority complex. He’s told he ‘will be a hero’. Unfair expectations to ever put on a child who hasn’t had the real world experience to decide his own career just yet. And so it manifests into an inferiority complex that the show actually admits to him having. He was never given any other option than to be a hero.

He was told for his whole life he’d be the best so to see someone who was always behind him move forward made him feel inadequate obviously, his lashing out isn’t excused by society’s involvement but can explain it. He’s working on it though. Working with Deku. Helping him improve. He’s shown character development. And it’s not just that, he’s driven solely by the idea of ‘winning’ which some might see as conceited but ‘winning’ is vague, it has no meaning, he chooses the challenge, he’s the only one who can define what ‘winning’ means to him. Some might think ‘winning’ means glory, or money or fame and he wants to be No.1 so there’s an aspect of that but it could just mean no casualties, everyone surviving, everyone being saved. Which I think is interesting.

Something else I think is admirable is that in his mind all opponents are just that, opponents. That’s why he goes all out when fighting Uraraka during the Sports festival, he said it himself. That it doesn’t matter that she’s a girl, she’s a girl that shouldn’t be underestimated. He doesn’t see her as weak. Even when the crowed and Present Mic got mad at him for being rough while fighting her. A fucking feminist Icon.

And he’s not just the typical 2 dimensional bully. He’s canonically got the best grades in the class, above Iida even. He goes to bed at reasonable times (8:30) most of the time. He studies, he even helped Kirishima. He works hard and it’s not just a natural talent which makes his character even better.

He feels guilt for being the catalyst for All Might’s down fall. They both idolised the hero and he felt like a fucking BURDEN. The self awareness he has is impeccable, understanding that he cannot control everything and being so angry about it, and why? Because he was told he could do anything he put his mind to, and he was discovering for the first time that that was a lie, that those adults were liars.

And when the villains kidnapped him he told them to fuck off. He was a hero through and through. He wouldn’t join them.

He’s a hero. A terribly misguided hero born from unrealistic expectations of children

He’s the epitome of gifted kid syndrome. He’s got a complex and major anxiety issues because of it. Imagine being told that they’re better than everyone else your age as a kid? You’ll believe it. Of course you’ll think you’re better bc the adults told you you were.

And it contrasts so well with Deku, Because their issues are due to the same societal pressure albeit different sides of that same scale.

That’s why ppl like him. He’s trying but just like Deku he was given an unfair disadvantage

He’s as much of an underdog. He’s a child who’s unlearning everything he’d been taught about himself.

Kiss It Better? (Kaminari x Reader)

Feel free to send in more requests! And as always this was crossposted to my AO3.

___

“I swear to God, I’m gonna drop out and be a stripper.” Who the hell had decided that students needed to know the exact day a war started— or whatever the hell the pythagorean theory was. Triangles, chemical equations, and stupid political cartoons all blurred together in your eyes, leaving your brain a jumbled mess. “I’d pay to see that.” The small hum of Mina sounded, earning a snort from you as you tossed a pillow at her. “Come on, I don’t know what to do.” You whined, throwing yourself back on the couch.

“You should ask Yaomomo or Iida then! I might just drop out with you if you don’t.” She snickered, and yet she did have a point. Complaining to her wouldn’t help, it’d probably only end up distracting her even more than she usually was. “It’s no use, I’m ordering a pole in advance. I gotta practice before they throw me outta here.” Mina snorted at that and there was a brief yell of “Shit!” quickly followed by a tumbling down the stairs, ending with a thump and a loud groan.

“Kaminari?” Your brows furrowed, pushing the textbook aside and walking over, only to see the blonde boy laying at the bottom of the floor with a dazed look in his eye. “Kaminari, did you fall down the stairs?”  Only his head turned to face you— cheeks tinged with pink— still lying on the ground. “No…” Nudging him with your foot, he grunted. “Are you good?” He flashed a thumbs up at that, making you roll your eyes— he was always such a terrible liar.

“So you’re just laying at the bottom of the stairs for fun?” He only lifted his head before turning to lay on his stomach. “Yeah.” His voice wheezed slightly— the idiot probably knocked the wind out of himself in the fall. Pinching the bridge of your nose, you sighed— if he had any injuries then they probably wouldn’t be bad enough to drag him to Recovery Girl, but there was still the chance that he’d hit his head in the fall. “Can you get up Kami?” His face reddened at the nickname and he scrambled to get up, a wince making its way on his face. “C’mon, go back upstairs and get to my room. Let’s make sure you’re alright.”

After all this would be more entertaining than the studying you were supposed to be doing.

“Ah come on L/n, I’m alright. Nothing gets to me, I’m indestructible!” He laughed, rubbing the back of his neck. Raising a brow, you stared at the large red mark on his arm that would surely become an ugly bruise soon. “Did you hit your head too?” His smile winced once again before he nodded slowly, hanging his head slightly.

“Come on Kaminari, just let me help before Aizawa finds out you have a concussion you refused to treat.” Grabbing his hand, you carefully led him up the stairs, completely unaware of the inner turmoil running through his mind.

“How’d you even fall anyways?” Your brows furrowed and he nearly tripped over himself. “Just… missed a step.” He wasn’t necessarily lying— he just didn’t have to say why exactly he got so distracted.

It was bad enough that he’d overheard your conversation with Mina— only to get distracted while he was going downstairs— but the fact that you had to help him was embarrassing! And despite just how humiliating this entire situation was, he didn’t want to let go of the hand that held his— he followed your gentle tug with a conflicted mind.

He could handle the slight embarrassment for the time being, the comfort of your room already seemed to be calming his nerves— he found that it was nice to be completely surrounded by you. Even when the two of you just hang around your room and stress about the homework that’d been assigned, it was always a lot more fun to worry about passing when it was with you. He’d always get to hear your laugh whenever the two of you got different answers for those god awful algebra packets, wondering who got the right answer (it was never Denki that got it right).

“Kami!” Your voice shook him out of his thoughts and he smiled sheepishly, rubbing the back of his neck. “Sorry, zoned out I guess.” Your lips pursed together into a worried frown. “Maybe I should get you to Recovery Girl, you might have knocked something loose in that fall.” His mouth pulled into a pout. “Aww c’mon, that’s mean and you know it! I’m fine, I don’t need her help.” Denki insisted, making himself right at home by flopping back on your bed “Then maybe I’ll kiss it better instead/” You joked, not noticing the way his cheeks tinged red. “That’s not a bad idea y’know…” His eyes trained themselves onto you, watching as you sat down on the bed next to him. “You think that’ll work?” You hummed quietly with a raised brow.

Tongue feeling heavy in his mouth, he opted for a small nod instead. Leaning down, your hand brushed the hair out from the front of his forehead before sweetly pressing a kiss to it. “That better?” You gave him an inch, and he’d try to take the whole mile. “I think you should try a bit lower.” He couldn’t hold back the grin creeping on his lips as he heard a snort leave your mouth.

“I think you’re starting to get greedy.” And despite your words, you leant down to press a small peck to his lips— his heart soaring though the gesture was small. “Come on, I’m hurt.” His grin was infectious and you couldn’t help but roll your eyes.

Maybe being taken care of wasn’t all too bad.

day 2 of @dekusquadweek​!

read on ao3

[ "So, we'll start." It seemed like hours had passed before the villain let go on his face, gold lines slowly receding back into his skin, and his eyes changing back to their usual colour. "What can you tell me about Uraraka Ochako? Hero Name; Uravity, with the quirk 'Zero Gravity'?"

No. He bared his teeth into a grin, something that would be more suited for Kacchan's face rather than his own. Blood dripped steadily down his face, the many cuts making a steady stream. "Sorry, but even my friendliness has limits, you know? I'm not telling you anything." ]

Ochako wasn't worried. She wasn't worried, and anyone who tried to tell her otherwise was a liar. Why would she be worried? She had no reason to. There was nothing or no one to worry over. Everything was perfectly fine, fine and dandy.

"Midoriya should be here by now..." Iida speaks up from across the booth, and Ochako feels her little resolve crumble at his words.

Where was Deku?

"I'm sure he's fine!" she looks across to her tall friend, who looks apprehensive and a little worried, and of course, who wouldn't be when it was concerning Deku? "He probably just got...caught up in something."

Ochako didn't sound so sure of herself. Their dinners together were on a weekly basis, Tsu and the others catching up when they had the time...Deku wouldn't have forgotten to call or text ahead if he couldn't make it...

They both knew just how Deku was; hardworking to an extreme fault, a workaholic, bullheaded in nature and selfless more than anyone had the right to be. Deku was smart, but he was a right idiot at times when it came to himself and actually looking after himself, for once.

It'd unfortunately been something Mr. Aizawa hadn't managed to shake off him during their years at U.A, and everyone knows Mr. Aizawa tried. Even with everything he had managed to get himself into...Deku was stubborn.

Old habits die hard, as the saying goes.

The diner bustled with energy around the pair, lost in their own little worrisome world as they pondered what could've happened to their friend. Thankfully, no one paid mind as Iida began chopping his hands, another old habit that never died.

"Perhaps we should call Todoroki? Midoriya mentioned that they had a big case together!" Iida forces an optimistic tone. "If it was anything too terribly wrong...well, the media would have already reported on it. I heard from Midoriya that Shinsou was in on it too..."

Ochako looks around the diner, making sure no one was listening in or watching the pair, before she leaned in slightly. "Shinsou's hasn't contacted in a week or so, remember? Mr. Aizawa said thats normal for underground heroes on big cases...especially because its only been a few months since we've graduated, Shinsou's gonna take a bit longer to get information..."

Iida frowns, and Ochako quickly closes her mouth as a waiter walks up, asking if they're ready to order. Both sidekicks ordered the first thing they saw on the menu, and with an afterthought, Ochako orders something small in case Deku did decide to show up, being late. He could always pay her back - she knew just how much he hated making others pay for him.

The waiter, not recognizing them, notes down their orders with a vigor and tells them their food will arrive soon, briskly walking away.

"If he doesn't show up, we can head over to Endeavor's agency and see if he's there," Ochako decides, a terse smile slipping onto her face. "Drop off the food - or ask around. Maybe he's just passed out at his desk again."

Iida let a more easy smile slip onto his face. "We shouldn't doubt him so much...he can handle any issues."

Ochako still couldn't stop the way her heart kept sinking, the feeling of something very wrong pretty evident. She hoped their friend showed some restraint, and hadn't landed himself into trouble...or that trouble found him.

She remember how terrible things had been during their years at U.A; the constant threat of villain attacks left their class on guard and slowly falling behind their studies, especially when it came to practical hero studies. Deku seemed to always be the center of it all...if it be they targeted his directly or he threw himself into it, especially during their third year when he'd gotten a much better handle on his quirk.

These days, villains were ready to attack so much because they knew Deku could fight back more than they could handle. He was a threat to them, much like the villains themselves being threats to society.

His quirk was sometimes even too much for himself to handle. Countless broken bones, bruises and lacerated skin...she admired his strength, but was surely glad her drawback wasn't as dire. And even as they'd all overcome the majority of their drawbacks...

Ochako was lost in her own thoughts for several minutes, only being shaken out of her stupor as plates were placed at their table, the waiter bowing and wishing them a good meal before going off to serve their next table.

But Ochako didn't move, her brown eyes swiveling towards the entrance of the diner, waiting.

She expected Deku to burst in through the entrance, looking as if he had rushed out his agency, clothes crumpled as he'd nearly run to the pair, apologising profusely for being so late. Iida would brush it off, glad that their friend was alright, and Ochako would halfheartedly threaten to float him to the ceiling next time he made them worry, more relieved than anything. And Deku would take it in stride, beaming and taking the spot of space offered by one or the other, ravenous and ready to eat.

But he never did. There was no familiar green-and-black hair to be seen. There was none of his joyous tone, calling out as he entered the building, nearly giving them away to the people who'd recognise them from the prestigious U.A.

There was no Deku.

Ochako stared down at her plate, aware Iida was watching her with concern pinching his face. But when she looked up, he simply eased a smile, pushing his glasses back onto the bridge of his nose.

"The quicker we eat, the quicker we can go find Midoriya," he assures her, quelling some of the worry and seeping the tension out of the atmosphere. "He wouldn't want us to wait for hours...maybe he just, forgot."

"Yeah..." Ochako murmured, picking up her chopsticks and snapping them. The delicious food laid out before her tried to entice her, but to no avail, her appetite gone. Although if she didn't eat, it would be a waste. "Maybe..."

They were both well aware just how unlikely that was. But Deku could handle himself - after all, he was Deku. He'd be fine...

...right?

BNHA | DanganronpaAU! hc’s

Part 2, featuring some characters outside 1-A! I really like this AU if you couldn’t tell, so feel free to request stuff/ask questions about it! Possible spoilers for Danganronpa below so please don’t read on if you want to avoid them.

Tsuyu Asui - is nervous, like everyone else, but is good at holding it together. She’s intent on finding a way out, and when she realizes that endeavor is fruitless, is dedicated to working with the others to rise against Monokuma. She has a knack for finding clues and noticing weird behavior. And as much as she can hold it together until then, the first death really shakes her optimism. She won’t be quite the same after the first trial, but with encouragement, she can be pulled out of her slump again. 

Tenya Iida - disciplined and knowledgeable, he never lets anyone forget what areas are forbidden or when curfew is. Has a strict moral compass and is prone to projecting it onto others. Follows a rigid schedule and stays cautious of the others, openly expressing he does not trust most of them. His schedule can open him up to someone, as they will have a good idea where he is and what he’s doing at many given times. Openly denounces Monokuma and reprimands anyone who defies rules or jeopardizes the group’s safety. 

Hanta Sero - makes a lot of jokes to cope with how terribly nervous and scared he is by this situation. His strategy is to find people he feels he can trust and make a solid alliance with them. His first concern is also trying to find a way to escape, and he never really abandons this idea until he realizes how hopeless it is. He likes to take it upon himself to lighten the mood and cheer people up with his humor. In times of desperation, he often feels like just giving up, but his friends are there to lift him up, and he’ll have the strength to keep working with the others.

Eijiro Kirishima - puts on a brave face, but is not as brave as he pretends to be. Very strong, so he isn’t easily overpowered. Wants to prove himself to the group and himself, so he sometimes acts impulsively, mostly with good intentions. But his impulsive actions can land him in dangerous situations, so having friends to talk him out of doing so will help him get farther.

Kyoka Jirou  - a smart and snarky musician who is willing to work with others, but doesn’t let her guard down. Happens to overhear things often, but also makes a habit of eavesdropping once she realizes how beneficial it is. Pretty good at telling when someone is lying. Doesn’t share much about herself or what she knows unless she really trusts someone. Because she’s a pessimist, doesn’t really believe working together will save everyone by the end, but she’s willing to help here and there. 

Mei Hatsume - Mei can be boisterous and a pain to constantly be around, but her inventive and creative nature could be a life-saver. She doesn’t always want to share her inventions with everyone though, and she has a tendency to be selfish. She also isn’t fully compliant with Monokuma’s rules and pushes the limits when she feels like she could find useful parts and information by defying them. She’s mostly out for herself, but it isn’t as if she doesn’t care about the others at all - she just prioritizes her own survival.  

Neito Monoma - a mass manipulator. Of course, he wouldn’t make that obvious. Initially he seems a little smug, but mostly normal. He’ll equip himself with a trustworthy and friendly persona, but secretly inject his chats with the others with lies and omissions. When his dishonest nature comes to light, he won’t be ashamed or cease to spread lies. He enjoys it even more once everyone is aware that he can’t be trusted, because that means he can tell only the truth and people will still second guess and not know what to believe. Probably the best liar, and masterful at turning people against one another.

Hitoshi Shinsou - is not opposed to working with the others. Only hesitates because he’s used to being perceived as intimidating, but is fairly mellow and friendly in his own way. That said, he’s also determined when he has his mind set on something and is very intent on getting to the bottom of every murder and figuring out what’s going on overall. His biggest motivation is figuring out who or what is behind Monokuma and this killing game, and the purpose of it all. He is not unafraid of dying, but he’s willing to take some risks to get closer to the truth. Not afraid to confront privately, whereas other people would limit confrontation to times where others are present or not very far.  

Camie Utsushimi - is not book-smart, but she knows how to get her way with certain people because she’s charming and attractive. Is one of the most naive of the students, and not the best at defense. Her best hope is to get on people’s good sides. That said, she is also good at manipulating what people think by starting rumours. 

Mirio Togata - very nice and outgoing, which can seem artificial to some, but only is when necessary. He’s also athletic, so he is not easy to overpower. Like Deku, wants to believe that everyone is well-intentioned, but if he finds that they aren’t, will discreetly scope them out with a friendly facade. He has a strong sense of justice and no sympathy for wrong-doers.  

Nejire Hado - kind of like Ibuki, but less chaotic. Is not as ditzy as she might seem, and she uses this to her advantage often. It’s hard to tell if she genuinely likes you or is just acting like she does, because her bubbly nature can seem disingenuous (and is at times). She might seem a little eccentric and maybe even juvenile, but can also be very serious when the situation calls for it. Is one of the most thorough at investigating because she’s so naturally curious. Her suggestions during trials can seem outlandish; this coupled with how ditzy she seems often leads people not to take her seriously.

Tamaki Amajiki - Tamaki is probably the most anxious and frightened by his predicament, and it shows. He doesn’t want to deal with the killing game or any of the others, and is very distrusting of them. Unlike some of the students who doubted the legitimacy of Monokuma’s announcement that the only way to get out is to kill someone, he believed it from the start because he couldn’t afford not to. Prone to anxiety attacks, which could make him vulnerable to an attack of a different kind. Is a very good cook and knows a lot about food, which gets some of the others to warm up to him. When encouraged, he can become bold and selfless.

Favorite BnHA OST Tracks

anon I never thought this day would come. (థ ｪ థ) 

I fucking adore this OST. and no one has ever asked me about it. which is fine, but I think we all need to just take a moment to acknowledge that the BnHA soundtrack fucking slaps. I’m not just saying that as a fan of the series; I’m saying it as objective fact. it’s up there with Zelda and Game of Thrones and How to Train Your Dragon. this soundtrack deserves all the love. and up till this point I’d resigned myself to loving it quietly, but now you have unlocked pandora’s box so I just hope you’re ready!!

I have... let’s see... six BnHA-related playlists right now lol. out of these, three are composed of tracks from the OST (the other three are my character-inspired playlists. wait, did I say three? actually there’s four of those. so seven in all. good lord). this soundtrack gets a lot of play, you guys. when I like something, I have a tendency to put it on repeat until I’m sick of it. so if I never get sick of it, you can imagine how that ends up going.

I was going to do a top ten of this, but then I went through the playlist and wrote down all my favorites and there were like thirty. I briefly entertained the idea of just saying FUCK IT I’LL JUST POST THEM ALL!!!!, but I had to sit myself down and lecture myself about having some goddamn self control. so I narrowed it down to like... twenty-three. and then finally down to seventeen. soo, it’s a top ten, plus seven honorable mentions. this is the best I can do guys. this is taking everything I’ve got, so please just humor me this once.

I promise this post won’t be super long. I’m not even gonna put it under a cut. I will restrain myself. okay here we go.

 10. Bombing King!!

Katsukiiiiii. I couldn’t not put this here, who the hell do you think I am. it’s perfect for him. it’s rowdy (I love how it just crashes in with those opening drums and guitar without so much as a how-do-you-do), but it’s got a real drive to it, and a fucking legit leitmotif that can be cut into sections and remixed in any number of ways (see: number 4). if you want to make it sad you can make it sad. want to make it even more badass, you can definitely do that. it makes me excited because there’s so many ways to play around with it for his future character development.

9. Cavalry Battle

this track makes me want to go out and cause a ruckus. it’s so full of energy and there’s an optimism to it, but like a clever, resourceful optimism. I love when the melody smooths out at around 1:14. it’s like, the team is coming together and we’re gonna kick some ass. they should play this in promos for the Olympics.

8. Nevertheless, Go Beyond

this makes me want to save the world. this one actually gets bonus points for the title because it’s so emotive, and somehow nails the exact feeling that the music manages to convey. even when you can’t go on, go on. you’re a hero. people are depending on you. get up.

7. All For One

ooooooohhhhhh my gooodddddddd. “The Power of All For One” is arguably the creepier track, but this one is more epic. it sends chills down my spine. he’s so fearsome. only the strongest of the strong can hope to defeat him. good vs evillllllll. god the bass in this is so good. and the vocals. and the frenzied urgency of the strings. and the Inception-stype WHOOOOOOOM at the end ugh.

6. Your Power

I almost went with “I Absolutely Won’t Use the Heat (Left)” because it’s so sad and haunting, but in the end this version won out because, as with the All For One track above, it’s the more epic of the two. I really consider them to be two parts of the same track though. anyways, so Todoroki’s motif is hands down the most haunting on the OST. fact. it’s so goddamn tragic?? and this version of it has that resounding drum beat that to me feels like a kind of grim determination. it’s a great track, and perfect for that theatrical Todoroki family drama lol.

5. My Hero Academia

this traccccccck. is so good. it makes me picture someone standing on the edge of a cliff at dawn looking down on the city below. it’s just got this kind of legendary feel to it somehow. this is an “only the beginning of the adventure” type of track. I also associate this with Iida unveiling his Reciproburst during the Sports Festival arc, because it was used so fucking well during that scene. “everyone, there’s less than a minute left...” I honestly get chills every time I watch that. it’s like quintessential BnHA.

4. Katsuki and Izuku

guys. I don’t want to throw the word “masterpiece” around all willy-nilly, but this. this, right here, is why I like character motifs so much. because you can play with them and wind them apart and together and bam, just like that you’re telling a fucking story. so anyways, in case you didn’t know, this track combines You Say Run/Jet Set Run (a.k.a. Deku’s themes) with Bombing King!! (a.k.a. Katsuki’s theme). bringing the two of them together through the power of music ffff why am I so weak to this shit. when You Say Run kicks in at around 26 seconds I fucking looooose it. then when Katsuki’s theme first joins in at around 52 seconds I lose it all over again. this is a better arrangement of it than Bombing King tbh. which is perfect, because the whole point of their story is that the two of them make each other better! anyways, they just complement each other so perfectly. IT’S LIKE THIS TRACK IS A METAPHOR FOR SOMETHING YOU GUYS. waiting on the anime to fucking use this in season 4, since it went unused in s3 despite them having all the opportunities in the world smdh. they might actually use it in the upcoming movie, come to think.

3. You Say Run

obviously. what else is there even to say. this is a fucking tour de force. chills every time. I know y’all came here for 2:05, but honestly the whole track is a rush from start to finish. I’m literally not exaggerating when I say that this music taught me the meaning of plus ultra. like on a spiritual level. music is cool. please don’t be mad at me that I only put it at third. if anything, that ought to tell you just how much I love the #1 and #2 tracks.

2. Hero A

I can play this on repeat for hours. not an exaggeration. this has the highest play count of any of my BnHA tracks. I’m not a naturally energetic person. I want to be, but I’m not. but this track is like a fucking life-hack to get you pumped the fuck up. and it’s so catchy, and it makes you feel so good, like you can really do anything. it might not be easy, but you can do it! I actually like the “you can be a hero/you say run” motifs in this track even better than the original tracks tbh. especially when it goes a bit quieter and then builds up again starting from 1:45, and then the percussion kicks in again, and it’s like something out of a Rocky movie. this track makes me fucking believe. it makes me want to try.

 and before we go to number one, here are some runner-ups. (by “some” I mean a fuckton more of them but my descriptions are shorter. compromise)

 You Can Be a Hero - the track that proved it’s possible to simultaneously make someone feel more inspired than they’ve ever been in their entire life while also causing them to ugly cry

Heroic Fighting Battle Song - why is the season 2 OST so fucking good

Go Seize It! - why is the season 2 OST so fucking good

The Threat of Offense and Defense - this theme makes me want to solve difficult puzzles very dramatically

Battle of Deku - this is just here because of Deku VS Kacchan part 2. I 100% associate it with that fight. it’s a great track, but it wouldn’t quite stand out among all the other tracks if it wasn’t for that. but that fight does exist, so now this track makes me think of rivals throwing down and it’s great

Yoarashi Inasa - specifically the part that starts in at 1:14. it’s like the Naruto and FLCL soundtracks had a really funky baby

People Always Reaching for the Top “the winner of the U.A. sports festival is...” the only reason this track isn’t higher is because I don’t feel like it stands quite as well on its own as some of the other tracks. but with context?? god. I love how this was used at the end of Bakugou VS Todoroki. it was just the perfect cue for that scene. so good.

 ...bonus runner-ups because I’m a fucking liar and have no self-control at all

 From Me to You - this is the one used when Kacchan joins the scooby squad. it’s quiet and sad and hopeful all at once. the perfect theme for something ending and something else beginning

Rampaging Evil - I associate this with Tomura. it’s badass and usually means that some hardcore shit is happening

Predecessor’s Sworn Friend - this track is some straight up Cowboy Bebop shit. badass grandpa gettin to work

 okay, without any further ado let’s finish up with number one

 1. One for All Vs. All for One

good. versus. evil. this is epic incarnate. how is it so good. I have so many feels about it oh god. it’s so desperate and so determined at the same time. it perfectly conveys this image of one person, almost at their limit, standing alone against something terrible, and somehow reaching deep within themselves to summon the courage to fight. it is beautiful. it is powerful as shit. it may just be the most heroic thing I’ve ever heard.

 so that’s my top ten twenty! rest assured, this is still leaving a lot out. like the rest of the entire goddamn soundtrack. god this series fucking spoils us.
