Summary: When Tokoyami overhears Ichijiku singing to the stars, he decides to take a chance asking her a serious question.

Ichijiku (Tigress)

The full moon stretches toward the sky as my friends laugh with each other on the beachfront. I grin at their joy and continue my stroll by the ocean waves as sand squishes between my toes.

Stars wink down at me as I attempt to pick out their stories, sifting through the twinkling lights with keen eyes until they paint a picture of star-crossed lovers and tyrannical kings. My feet wander of their own accord and I shove my hands in my pockets as the autumn wind raises goosebumps on my skin. Soon, winter will dance across our toes with snowflakes and I’ll go from a stroll on the beach to a pair of ice skates on a frozen pond. 

A smile tickles my lips as anticipation for snow and Christmas floods me down to the tips of my toes. Christmas makes me think of snow makes me think of falling flakes makes me think of a song from my favorite Disney movie.

I pause in my journey and look around to make sure I’m alone. I sit in the sand and when the coast seems clear my eyes close as sweet notes serenade the seagulls and sea life.

“Silent as the snowflake in the night,

holy is the spirit of this night.

All the world is calm and peaceful,

all the world is bright and joyful…” 

I hum the rest as I rest my chin on my knees and watch the shimmering bioluminescence of fascinating creatures at sea splash into the ocean, wave after wave. Lapping water harmonizes with the refrain as the song ends and I’m left with the soothing background noise of nature.

Daydreams of my feathered classmate dancing with me in moonlight skirts my mind until his voice caresses my ear, no longer a fantasy. 

“You sound like a songbird.” His deep voice whispers.

I gasp and jolt to my feet, eyes snapping open as a blush paints my cheeks. 

“T-Tokoyami! H-Hi! Sorry. Hi. I didn’t hear you.” I sputter, before his comment registers and my cheeks turn a shade darker. “Oh, um, thank you? It scares me to sing in front of strangers.” 

“My apologies, Songbird,” He grins and gives a bow of his head as Dark Shadow squawks and swoops over to nuzzle me. “Your sweet singing helped me soothe Dark Shadow.”

“Oh! That’s right,” I stroke the foggy mass of Dark Shadow’s face. “You get rowdy at night, don’t you, my cloudy companion?”

A sad chirp whistles past Dark Shadow’s nostrils but he tips his head into my palm. I rub my thumb over the cool, momentarily tangible clouds of his cheek.

“You…” Tokoyami begins, but when I meet his eyes he looks away and shuffles the sand with his feet. A moment passes before he looks back up at me. “Would you like to go to the apple orchard with me this weekend?”

I stop petting Dark Shadow as it’s my turn to stare at my feet.

“Y-Yeah. I would like that.” I answer before I can chicken out. Maybe I should clarify what he means by that. What if he just wants to go because we’re friends? “Are we going as friends?” 

“If you’d like,” Tokoyami’s feathers bristle against his head for a moment. He takes a shaky step toward me. “However, I was hoping you’d go with me as my date?” 

“Really?” My head whips up, eyes bright with enthusiasm. I swallow and play with my hair to calm down and not look so desperate. “I mean, I’d like that. I was hoping that’s what you meant.” 

Awkward silence simmers between us until Dark Shadow drapes around us, pulling me into a solid, warm chest. I look up and Tokoyami nuzzles his cheek against mine.

“Will you sing for us again?” He asks.

“Of course.”

After a few refrains of my favorite lullabies, I yawn and rest my head against his chest. But my eyes fly open when he sweeps me into his arms. 

“Ah!” My arms squeeze his neck as I regain my bearings. “What are you doing?”

“Carrying you back to your house, if you’ll allow me.” He coos.

“I don’t mind, but I know I’m heavy. Are you sure?” I barely breathe, as if any exhale of oxygen will crush him beneath me.

“I’m sure.”

He sets me down when we reach the door, for which I’m grateful. If Naomi caught me walking in at this hour, she’d ground me for life.

“Thank you for this evening.” I whisper, head whipping around every few moments as I listen for my live-in nanny. “I hope you’ll join me again sometime?”

“I’d be delighted.” He nods.

And the stars giggle above as I stand on my tip-toes and kiss his cheek.

Part 2 of my KHXMHAAU (Alphabet Soup for short) is UP!!!

...The fic is still Tokoyami-centric, I swear!

You can see more art for this fic here, here, and here.

[plague-and-creatures]

There should be a feature on ao3 that lets you specify and sort by what the main/centric ship of a fic is instead of just having all the ships under the same relationship section and filter of a fic

Like:

Warnings, main relationship, relationships, characters, additional tags

I say this because as a tokoyami/shoji fan it's really hard to find fics where they aren't a secondary or background couple for stories about ships that are more popular

BAKUGOU KATSUKI FANFIC IDEA: SUPERHERO

In my previous post (the "Wherever the Chaos is" part of the fic ideas), I had the idea for Kacchan being a solo hero who leaves the whole system of rankings and agencies to be a superhero similar to what we usually see in comics after Izuku rejected him

The title of the fic is inspired by amazing fanarts that were in turn inspired by the song "Let me be your superhero" by Smash into Pieces

It'd be a Kacchan centric fic where he rises to not just be a hero but a superhero. I hc that he's build up other skills in different fields during the suit project so I wanna see that while he's far more willing to work together and help others, he is 1st and foremost, aiming to be the Symbol of Victory and those skills are gonna help him achieve that

Not only he's gonna trailblaze on through to shaping and maintaining a new era of peace but he's gonna drag everybody else along with him whether they want to or not

Its win to save for him after all

He's not here to make nice or for people to like him in rankings and all other bullshit. He's gonna be a superhero that'll win against a world and system that could give birth to villains. To help maintain an era and all the generations to come into retaining their empathy and humanity even when the uglier side of society threatens to break that

He'll be the Star of Victory in both times of peace and strife even after he's long gone, a reminder that there'll be no pyrrhic victories as people struggle and live thru life

Anyways!

Things I'd like to see for this au of mine:

- a secret hideout based on the mountains, named 'Ground Zero'

- different array of skills, he's grown to be a Jack of All Trades in the 8 years since the War. Some of the skills he's learned and perfected:

• Polyglot: Japanese, English (New York accent), Chinese, German, French, Korean, Spanish and Italian

• Medical science & paramedicine: he wants to know everything there is to know about his heart and body so that he can be a hero for as long as he can. Since he's also learned how important medicine is in helping others (as Edgeshot had done for him), he's learned to be a paramedic over the years as well

• Science & Engineering: the suit mostly but also because he enjoys getting to design and create his own gear

• Architecture: I'd love the idea that Kacchan builds his own hideout and house

- his struggle and triumph over his heart problems that he got when Shigaraki killed him

- after working together for 8 years on the suit, he's become close friends with Melissa. He wont admit it, but outside of his usual group of friends back in Japan, he grudgingly admits that Melissa is one of his best friends

- as I hc that Kacchan is both demisexual and demiromantic, he has zero interest in dating unless its with the person he's in love with

- has a (seemingly) unrequited love for Izuku

- continues to be in a band with Jirou, Momo, Kaminari and Tokoyami so they get together pretty often when they're not out being heroes. Its become a tradition for them to perform every year during the UA festival

- eventually, he and Izuku will be partners (both in private and professionally) but it'll take awhile. Still not sure on how it'll happen yet though

- also would like the possibility of Kacchan being one of the founders for the League of Heroes (similar to the Justice League or the Avengers)

------------

So....yeah, thats the gist of what I'd like to write one day

Hopefully 😅

Thanks for reading this far!

Diet Mountain Dew - TGCH oneshot

Tags: Post-war, fluff and angst, unresolved feelings, repressed emotions, longing, unspoken confessions, hurt/comfort, haunted by memories, vomiting, <- mentioned but not described in detail, Hawks is a proud father, he loves his emo son so much, aka tokoyami, extremely togachako centric, the others are just offhandedly mentioned, inspired by music, song: diet mountain dew (Lana Del Rey)

This is a teaser; you can find the full version HERE!

.

.

.

Ochako is a pro hero — a successful one, at that. Not as successful as some of her old classmates who had, unsurprisingly, shot up to top 5, but she enjoyed her cushy number 8 ranking. She was doing much better than her teen-aged self had anticipated, though, the war had changed a lot.

Nightmares of Himiko haunted her. She’d wake up in the middle of the night, shaking and gasping, the guilt of not saving Himiko tearing at her as she pulled her bedside trashcan closer to throw up into.

It was only a month after Himiko had passed that she, despite still being in the hospital, had decided she would never let something like that happen again. She would make sure she’d help kids like Himiko long before they had a chance to get hurt the way she did.

In all honesty, she became mean after Himiko’s death finally settled into her and became real. She hid it well, but her blood boiled at even the slightest inconvenience. Every missed step, every delay, every careless remark from a fellow hero sent a simmering anger coursing through her veins.

Heaven forbid the war resurfaced in mainstream conversation. On those days, she was wound even tighter, her ears straining for any mention of Himiko’s name.

She kept her bitterness locked up, tucked neatly behind polite words and a calm exterior. No one saw the way she clenched her fists in the privacy of her apartment or the nights she spent staring at the ceiling, replaying every frustrating moment of her day. Not even her closest friends seemed to notice how tightly wound she’d become. Or maybe they did but were too afraid to point it out.

It was easier this way. Easier to be the hero they all expected. Easier to hide the resentment she felt growing inside her like a festering wound. But lately, the mask had been slipping, and she feared the day it might break altogether.

During her patrols, she sometimes caught glimpses of Himiko—a fleeting shadow, a distant laugh. She saw her most vividly when she was working too hard, pushing herself to the brink. It was a clear reminder to value the life that Himiko sacrificed herself to save.

Since it was such a common occurrence, that's what she had assumed was happening when she was patrolling late at night, unbothered by the rain.

New Updated MHA Nemesis Unrestrained

Because what better way to welcome the new blog than by posting the updated version of Class A and who'd I choose to have them as rivals...becuase yes.

Even now my brain still has better match-ups for some of them. This time Kaminari and Jiro!

Given this is a new blog will only be posting the line-up with the newest rivals, though if you want to check out what I had before, you can look at it here.

Deku - Shigaraki

Ochako - Toga

Todoroki - Dabi (For all three above, you likely know why already xD)

Bakugo - Muscular (Same as before, genuinely think that Bakugo beating down against one of the strongest of Deku's Rogue's Gallery who was supposed to kidnap him as a way to return the favor just writes itself)

Iida - Stain (Speedster vs someone who stops you in your tracks, both are very morally centric figures with codes on how they feel heroism should be upheld - really wished they clashed in the Final War)

Kirishima - Rappa (seriously, these guys were perfect rivals. Incredible defense veruse overpowering offense. WHERE WAS RAPPA DURING THE FINAL WAR??!!!)

Tsu - Spinner (already spoke of this in the series, but both are Heteroromorphs that dealth with ostracization and are their group's mutant support)

Momo - Re-Destro (Leader of the First Years vs Leader of the MLA, one that forged her own path as a Hero and overcome her anxiety to be a proper leadervs guy who was essentially groomed to be Destro V2 and his whole ordeal is putting himself under mass stress to be strong, even if he isn't liberated.)

Tokoyami - Twice (both struggle with keeping their powers under control and have a relationship with Hawks, so its pretty natural)

Aoyama - Kunieda (for what it's worth, Kunieda made for a scary villain for Aoyama, his loyalty to AFO made me want to know more on their relationship)

Kaminari - Tajima (Basically a match-up of two electric types of contrasting disposition, that also act as supports and backbones for their teams. Kaminari is a confident, if kind over his head, showoff that struggles with his reliability under pressure, but manages to overcome it for the sake of the right thing - for his pals. Tajima, meanwhile, is one consumed by his fear of AFO and gives in to his anxiety to the point of doing sabotaging efforts that could harm people to save his own skin)

Jiro - Shin Nemoto (A girl who could hear theoretically anything against a guy whose Quirk can allow him to always gain the truth. There's a potential for introspection on how people with these sorts of Quirks are trusted, or even distrusted. Perhaps Nemoto and her could relate to people always thinking they'll spy on them or that they can't ever speak freely? Just a thought!)

Mineta -Toya Setsuno (A villain whose had a rough love life and can steal anything against someone whose desperate for love/lust and can technically hold down anything with just his Quirk. In addition, Setsuno has low self esteem to Mineta's high ego. It's a dynamic/fight that really works)

Shoji - Chimera (a Spinner stand-in that Shoji actually fought, and lost, to before and would've been perfect to be his Nemesis)

Mina - Slice (Already have seeds of a good rivalry given how Mina ruined Slice's hair that she prides herself in. Perhaps Slice could have been similar to Mina in that both were their community's popular girls that tried their best to be defenders. But in Slice's case, those she helped eventually backstabbed her to leave her destitute, maybe even for someone else - hence why prides herself in, usually, just her power...least until she met Nine's crew )

Hagakure - Mummy (The Invisible (Wo)man versus a mummy. It writes itself and Hagakure presents an interesting dilemma to him since she's unaffected his Quirk due to her, ah, situation)

Koda - Trumpet (Yeah, still think Koda would've worked well as a shy yet caring boy standing against a cold, faux preacher)

Sero - Ending (Another person who wounded up being affected by a Todoroki and essentially waltzed through. Though while Ending became obssessed and wants to be done in by them, Sero's easygoing nature has him not revolve his life around his defeat or said Todoroki's beyond a few jabs. Basically Sero is the 'dude its not that serious' of the MHA verse that makes him prime to restrain someone whose kinda off the deep end or go against them.....and, you know, similar power sets).

Sato - Deidoro Sakaki (Scratch that. Guy who gains power from ingesting sugar, vs guy whose Quirk is stronger from ingesting alcohol makes for a far better match-up!)

Ojiro - Hakiji Tengai (A disciplined monk vs a disciplined martial artist; with the added bonus of a match of pretty 'basic' power standings: someone with a tail trying to whack a guy in a shield - it's a pairing I think could lead to an interesting way for Ojiro to win.)

But, yeah, if I had no restraints, this is who I would actually give as Class A's proper Nemesis throughout the series.

GUYSSS

I'm writing a bsd x mha fanfiction, it's chuuya-centric and I want to make him sorta gey close with a ua student that vaguely reminds him of Dazai (bc its skk and Chuuya doesn't wanna admit he misses hanging out with Dazai)

I was thinking Hatsume, bc she's kinda like Dazai, but I'm not too sure.

Someone in 1A would be better maybe...
