Bakugou watches you hug Izuku from the corner of the packed bar marveling at the exquisitely well-crafted dress that clings to you in all the right places that also has his mind drifting to places they shouldn't.

Tonight is one of his best friends' birthday parties, and every year Deku goes all out — renting out a five-star restaurant or cocktail bar, but this year he has gone too far. This year he chose a place downtown with a garish chandelier that hangs down from the second-floor balcony, white marble floors with floor-to-ceiling windows fitted with velvet curtains that pool on the floor just waiting to be stepped on. Bakugou can't help but scoff at the gaudy place, but he endures because he knows that you are here.

He's been playing this little game of cat and mouse with you since February. Every month when the class 1-A alumni get together to celebrate birthdays he goes only for the opportunity to see you. And it always ends the same: with him taking you back to his apartment to confess his feeling and to apologize, but it never goes that way. Instead, the two of you make out and find your way to his bed, just for you to leave minutes after giving him what he swears to be the best sex of his life.

Tonight will be different, he promises himself. And if it's not, he knows that he will see you again in two weeks for your combined birthday bash with Sero, Mina, and Jiro. It will be the biggest party of the year with swimming, barbeque, and more alcohol than people will know what to do with. But it is also the six-month mark where he left you standing alone in your apartment crying as he walked out the door.

Bakugou knows that leaving you was the stupidest thing he's ever done. He was working too many hours, not appreciating you, and not giving you what you deserved.

That late December night when he came home from working a double you tried to make Christmas plans with him — something about his mom wanting the two of you to come over for Christmas Eve — but he couldn't handle it. The stress, the pressure of not being where he thought he should have been in the rankings two years after graduating, and not willing to drag you down with him. He blew up, lashed out at you, and walked out right after, cementing his fate.

He knows he was an idiot for not listening to others about taking breaks, especially since that's exactly what he has told Izuku so many fucking times, but he was blinded by pride and stress and took it out on you. He will never forgive himself. It's not an excuse. All he wants to do is apologize to you and have you back in his arms while spending the rest of his life making it up to you. He knows he doesn't deserve a second chance but he hopes that you will give him one anyway.

Hell, he and Kirishima have tried to come up with so many schemes to get you back, but they all felt lackluster and like something out of a shitty rom-com. That's not how he wants to get back together. He wants it to be genuine and heartfelt, not a big grand gesture that you would probably hate anyway.

The idea of getting you back with a flash mob was more than enough to have him want to drop Kirishima as his wingman. But Kirishima has valuable intel, he's dating your best friend Mina and you have been over there venting your emotions to them for the last six months.

Eijiro hasn't told him everything, of course. He just hints at the simple truth that you are still in love with Bakugou, and that fact alone is enough for him to be here tonight, standing in a stuffy, two thousand dollar tailored suit, buttoned up and with a tie snug around his throat. For you, he reminds himself, everything is for you.

He watches Mina leave Kirishima's side, pulling you into a hug and blabbing about something that makes you smile before dragging you away from Deku and to the bar.

“So man, what's the plan for tonight?” Kirishima asks, nudging Bakugou in the side before taking a sip from his glass of whiskey.

Bakugou rolls his eyes at the question. “Tch. Same as always. Just try n’ talk to her.”

A smile forms on Kiri’s face, “Riiiiigghhht,” he exaggerates, drawing out the syllables, “just talking to her, huh?”

“What two consenting adults do together is none of your business, shitty hair,” Bakugou retorts, narrowing his eyes at his best friend.

“Aye, that's what your mom told me last night!” Kaminari chimes in, popping in between his two friends unexpectedly and slinging his arms around each of their shoulders.

“You little shit!” Bakugou shouts, before Denki is rushing off trying to hide from Bakugou as explosions pop in his hands.

Mina intertwines your arms as she leads you over to the bar and orders you both drinks before plopping down on a barstool and patting the empty one next to her.

She sips her drink and looks over you again, closely eying your expensive designer dress.

“Damn, girl! You look so good tonight!” she gushes.

The complement definitely boosts your ego, you better look good tonight, you spent way too long getting ready for you to not look ravishing.

“Thanks, Mina,” you smile at her. Tonight you're happy to be out, it's been such a long time since you've had fun like this.

Mina raises her glass to her lips and takes a sip, “You're not dressed up super fancy for any reason in particular tonight?” She raises her eyebrows as she waits for your response.

“Yeah actually, do you know if Hawks is coming tonight?” you reply.

“Har har, very funny,” she rolls her eyes at you before turning to scan the room. “You know, I think he looks really dashing tonight. Almost like he dressed up for someone in particular...”

“I don't know who you're referring to,” you say, watching the ice in your glass clink together.

You know exactly who she's looking at. You can't act like your eyes didn't immediately search the room for his spikey ash hair and crimson eyes as soon as you got to the party. And when you saw him standing in a corner in a brilliantly tailored suit you almost drooled.

The last few times you've seen him have all led to the same thing: you under him, moaning his name and then pushing him away after, leaving as fast as you can to spare your heart any more pain. You’re probably just a meaningless fuck to him, and you’re too afraid to find out the truth. You honestly don't know if you would prefer that statement to be true or not.

If you are just a fuck to him, at least you still get something out of it. You still get to feel his hands on your body, his strength as he towers over you, and you can let your body pretend that you're still his and he’s yours. After all, who is better to please you than the only person you've ever been with.

On the other hand, if he wants something more, what would that mean for your broken heart? That all your suffering was in vain? Or that he's the only one that can mend it? It doesn't feel right, but you have noticed a change in him: he's more caring, even with reporters and civilians, and you've seen that he wants to talk more. But you are the one that keeps shutting him out.

That guilt eats away at you but then you remember that you thought from a few months ago, ‘I don't want to be in love anymore.’ Was that really true? Is it still true?

You don't have time to ponder before you can hear the sound of someone screaming your name.

“Y/N! HELP ME!” Denki all but screams as he runs at you full tilt with a fuming Bakugou behind him.

You have just enough time to set your drink down on the bar before Kaminari all but slams into you, pushing your body between him and his pursuer.

“Denki, what are you—” you try to blurt out before you stumble in your heels.

You feel yourself falling forward and your brain sends a rush of adrenaline through you. Please body, don't let me fall. Not here in this designer dress.

You feel a solid wall of muscle collide with you and a strong arm wraps around your waist, anchoring you in place and saving you from your plummet.

Oh no.

You’d recognize that scent anywhere, woody sweetness masked by an intoxicating smoky aroma.

You grab onto one of his arms to help you steady yourself and you can feel the muscle flex through his suit. Your gaze trails slowly up his chest and up to his face. His ruby eyes meet yours with something dangerous hidden in his irises and your breath hitches in your throat.

His fingertips feel hot through the fabric of your dress. “Hey, princess,” he draws in a seductive tone. He glances at your lips before trailing down to your chest that is pressed firmly against him.

“Katsuki,” you respond with a breathy whisper.

You can hear Mina berating Denki for being so careless and childish behind you, but her words seem so far away. The only thing you can focus on is the feeling of Katsukis gaze taking you in and the way your heart rate quickens. The world around you fades away and only this moment remains.

“Thank you for catching me,” you manage to squeak out. The soft tone of your voice causes Bakugou to pull you closer to him.

His hand on your back clutches at your dress before he remembers that the two of you aren't alone.

“What else am I supposed to do when you're so obviously fallin’ for me?” he says in a tone only meant for your ears. The smirk on his face is so devilish, you wouldn't mind smacking it off, but you can't stop the butterflies in your stomach from erupting at the implications.

A loud cough from behind you stirs you from your moment with Bakugou. You look over your shoulder and you see Mina’s eyebrows raised, giving the two of you knowing glances.

Kaminari takes this as his opportunity to get away again, giving you a two-fingered salute before making a break for it into the crowd of people.

Bakugou scoffs at Denki’s brazen cowardice, before moving his hands so they are resting on your arms.

“Can we talk later?” he asks, eyes pleading.

You nod in response before he turns away from you, searching for Kaminari in the crowd of people.

“Get the fuck back here, Pikachu!” his voice booms throughout the room as Denki tries to scramble deeper into the crowd.

Bakugou makes his way towards him and you can't help but let out a laugh at their antics. Even in a place as fancy as this they are the same. As childish as it is, you can't help but love their behavior.

You grab your drink on the bar, taking a sip, and leave the glass resting against your lips, smiling into the rim of the drink.

Mina clears her throat, “What's with the smile?”

“I don't know what you’re talking about.”

Of course Mina recognizes that smile. It's the same one that you had the first half of second-year until Bakugou finally made a move on you. The memories make her smile into her own drink before taking a sip. The two of you sure have been through a lot together.

“Uh-huh, sure. I believe you,” she mocks. “Is tonight going to go down like all the other parties?”

Your face falls as you remember that that flirty interaction with Bakugou was just that. It didn't mean anything.

“No,” you respond in a somber tone. “Don't let me leave with him again, Mina.”

You turn to face her with pleading eyes, but she just shakes her head and smiles.

“You always say that, but last time you threatened me with a fork. I don't want to get stabbed,” she laughs.

You know she's right, but she could at least pretend. You let out a small huff of air, and wonder how exactly you've been reduced to threatening your friends with forks just to get dicked down. It's probably Bakugou's fault you decide for the sake of your own sanity.

The rest of the evening went pretty smoothly. Deku made his rounds receiving birthday wishes, Denki and Bakugou got a stern talking to by Kirishima for being so disruptive, and you spent most of the evening with Mina and Jiro surrounded by people sipping on drinks that were way too expensive and laughing way too hard.

It felt really good to be out in society again and not feel like you were burdening others with your sadness. The confidence boost that your stunning attire gave you didn't just make you feel good, it seemed to pull others into your orbit as well. Plus you got to spend time with a bunch of people that you haven't seen in so long and it felt like you were back in school again, being able to talk to all of your friends easily and comfortably.

Bakugou spent most of the night watching you and the flock of people that kept running to your side. Especially the men in the room that couldn't get enough of you. Of course, they couldn't. You looked drop-dead fucking gorgeous and any of them would be fucking lucky to take you home.

He watched Ojiro, Shinsou and even Mirio Togata hang off of your every word, vying for your attention. But he couldn't help how his heart would quicken when he would see your eyes scan the room before landing on him and then quickly turning away from his heated gaze.

It's what fueled him to find you as the party started to wind down.

You’re nursing your final drink of the night. Any buzz that the alcohol had given you earlier was long gone now as you sit alone at the bar. Mina had already left with Kirishima and the crowd had considerably thinned out.

A warm body slides into the seat next to you and you see the spikey blond hair out of the corner of your eye.

“Are you drunk, princess?” he asks playfully.

“Nope,” you let the ‘p’ pop on your lips before you take another sip, “and you shouldn't call me that anymore, you know.”

“Oh, so you don’t like it anymore?” he chimed, not missing a beat and bringing his face closer to yours.

You feel your cheeks heat up and look away from him, “I didn't say that…”

“What are you doing for the rest of the night?” he asks as if it wasn't already one in the morning.

You rub your ankle, massaging the heel where the pain started a few hours ago. “I’m hopefully going home and taking these heels off.”

“Can I join you? I really want to talk.”

You mull over your options. You can either go home alone and feel miserable, or you can go home with him, have a really good orgasm and then feel miserable. You're going to be miserable either way, you figure, so you might as well start thinking with your pussy rather than your brain.

You turn to face him in your chair, “What do I get out of it?”

He smirks and lets out a small laugh, “I have been told that I am a very good conversationalist.”

He has never been told that once in his whole life and much as you try to suppress the smile forming on your lips, you can't. Katsuki puts an elbow on the bar and rests his head on his arm, swinging his leg under the table and watching you finish your drink.

“You're in a good mood tonight,” you say to him quizzically.

“I am now.” Sitting here with you like this, almost as friends, definitely flirting, is making him feel like a teenager again, you've always had that effect on him. Watching you get hit on all night did sour his mood, but now that your attention is on him, he feels content.

You let out a small breath of air before taking the last sip of your drink. “You're just excited to get laid.”

No, you’re wrong, he thinks; he's excited to spend time with you, to talk with you, but he won't complain if the night ends up with the two of you between the sheets, but he keeps that to himself as the two of you stand.

You get your purse from the coat check and try to say your goodbyes to a very drunk Deku, who is hanging dangerously off of Iida’s arms, with Iida trying to wrangle him towards the exit.

Bakugou follows you outside with a hand on your lower back.

“Did you drive?” he asks you.

“No, I carpooled with Jiro. I was just going to Uber home.”

He hums in response, “We can take my car then.”

He leads you through the parking lot to his car and opens the door for you, helping you inside before he climbs into the driver's seat.

When the car is started, he blasts the AC to get the summer heat out and distractedly asks you, “Your place then? It's closer.”

You fidget with your fingers in your seat before you look at him. “Um, I actually got a new place so yours is closer now,” you respond, trying to gauge his reaction to the news that you moved out of the first apartment that you had shared, the first place that the two of you had made love, the last place where you were his.

A variety of emotions played on Katsuki’s face, and his eyebrows furrow as he takes in the news. He has no right to be upset or off-put by this, but in a way, it's like a piece of you is finally done with him.

He rubs at the ache in his chest. “I guess it's my place then.”

A part of you was hoping for a stronger reaction from him as he begins the drive to his apartment. You hoped he would be angry or sad at you for leaving the home that surprised you with all those years ago. Why does it hurt that he doesn't care?

You watch the streetlights cast shadows on your reflection in the mirror during the near-silent car ride as your mind wanders. What is it about cars that make you always think so hard? Is it the fact that they are literally moving you along from one fixed point to another? They leave no room for miscalculations but driving is something that most people don't even think about.

You wish that life was as easy as driving from one spot to the next, but feelings make that a little too hard. Sure, you can pick a person, get married, drive along all the spots in life, but what's the point if there is no love, or if the line you're driving on suddenly drops out from under you.

The image of Bakugou driving the car containing the two of you suddenly dropping off the road causes your stomach to flip, and not in a good way.

You at him driving so effortlessly, his hands resting comfortably on the steering wheel with his side profile being perfectly framed by the reflection of the building behind him on the glass. You trace your gaze down his neck and to the muscles flexing under his shirt as he makes a turn.

You're not sure what his reasons are for wanting to talk to you so often, or if that's just what he's decided to call these rendezvous. Does he want to talk about a friends with benefits situation, because you don't think you could handle that. But is that really different from what you're doing right now?

And this thing that you're doing now, you're sure everyone knows about it. Do they think worse of you for fucking your ex? Do they know that you're still totally and completely still in love with him, even though every night you swear that you will wake up tomorrow and forget him? They probably do.

Worst of all, is he just using you? Meeting up with you like this after parties because it's convenient for the two of you and easy because you know each other's bodies so well? It's an option that you've considered almost every night at three a.m. when you can’t sleep. It would break you even more than the first break up did, so that's why you can never just talk to him.

You're terrified of what these feelings of yours are going to put you through. The last thing that you need is to be shattered into a million pieces again by the same man. So you've taken precautions to guard your heart, not that you've been able to follow them.

The first rule was no kissing. That went out the window the first time you were alone with him. You practically dislocated a disk in his neck with the strength you used to pull his mouth to yours.

The second rule was no feelings. Yeah, you laughed when you broke that rule the second you thought of it. You were royally fucked already, there was no way you wouldn’t have feelings for him.

The third rule, and the only one you've actually been able to keep, is no sleeping over and no cuddling after. You’ve read enough fanfiction and seen enough movies to know that sleeping in the same bed or cuddling after sex always leads to more complicated emotions. One bed trope? No thank you.

You try to clear your mind of all the negative thoughts as Bakugou pulls into his parking garage.

Maybe you should just ask him to take you home.

He gets out of the car and briskly walks over to help you out of your seat, lending you a hand to help steady yourself in your heels. His fingers intertwine with yours, holding your hand hostage, but your heart betrays your brain by quickening its beat and making heat bloom across your chest.

You're pulled into the heat of him again as the two of you make your way towards his apartment and he holds you close in the elevator, running his hand along the side of your face. He's never been big on words, but this touch of his is giving you more hope than your body can hold.

Be strong, you tell yourself, don't pounce on him when the door closes, hold back, hold back.

He unlocks the door to his place, letting you step in first before he follows.

As soon as the door to his apartment closes, you throw all caution to the wind. Fuck feelings, fuck obligations, and fuck what everyone else thinks. If he just needed to use you as a release, then you can do the same too, right?

You thread your fingers into the hair at the base of his neck and pull his face towards yours, kissing him. His reaction is immediate, kissing you back with an amount of passion that shocks you. He bites at your bottom lip and you gasp, allowing his tongue to slip into your mouth.

His hands grip your hips tightly, pulling you even closer to his body. The heat coming off him makes your blood run hotter and you need to touch his skin to feel it for yourself.

Without breaking the kiss, you start to push his suit jacket off of his shoulders. Your hands trail down his arms, feeling his muscles as you move the fabric off of him. He grabs the jacket when it gets to his hands and throws it on the floor before gripping your hips and spinning the two of you so that your back hits the wall.

With one last lick to your lips, he pulls his face back.

“Damn you, woman,” he says breathlessly, “I really need to talk to you.”

You intertwine your arms behind his head and purr directly into his ear, “And I really want you to fuck me, Katsuki.”

He grinds his hips into you and you can feel his half-hard cock pressing into you. The last thing you want to do is talk right now. Your mind is too filled with the need to touch him, to be full of him, to use him as an escape from your reality.

“Please,” —you place a kiss on his neck, dragging your bottom lip across the skin— “I need you so bad.”

You can feel his resolve crumble as he ruts his hips against you.

Bakugou can't believe that he's about to make the same choice that has haunted him these past months, but he can't say no to you. He has never been able to say no to you. Any moment with your lips on his skin is better than without. He can talk to you after, he’ll convince you to stay this time.

Without warning, he grabs your ass and hoists you into his chest. He makes himself busy by kissing your neck and you thread your hands into his hair for balance while he’s carrying you to his bedroom.

Every time you've been in his apartment, you notice the small amount of new furniture he's accumulated since leaving you all the furniture in your old apartment after the break-up. Today is no different. When he hoists you up, you get a nice view of a dark high backed reading chair that looks perfect to curl up in.

You’re happy that he's gathering more stuff and no longer is sleeping on a mattress with no bed frame, Kirishima told you about that after he first moved in, but that thought makes some part of your heartache. It means he is just moving on from you and filling his life with new things.

A smack to your ass pulls you from your thoughts. “Hey, pay attention to me,” Bakugou says before dropping you onto the bed.

“Sorry, Katsuki,” you pout.

He grips your chin, forcing you to look at him.

“Is that what you call me?” he asks with a stern tone.

You sit up a little straighter in the bed, pushing your chest out for him. “I'm sorry, Daddy.”

“There’s my good girl,” he coos, making your cunt clench at the praise. “Do you need anything special tonight?”

You shake your head, “I just wanna be your good girl.”

The way your eyes look up at him, pleading with him to take care of you, has him melting. He loves you so fucking much. Of course, he's going to take care of you, he’s always going to take care of you.

You grab the belt loops on his pants and pull his hips closer to you, your mouth watering in anticipation.

“You're an eager baby tonight, aren't you?” he says mockingly.

You nod your head again with a bigger pout. In truth, you just want to forget anything for as long as he will allow you. You want your head to be lost in the clouds while he ravages your body.

“I bet you were thinking about me all night while those extras were trying to smooth talk their way under your dress,” he sneered as his hand caresses slowly up your arms, to your shoulders, and to the zipper along your back.

Goosebumps follow along your skin where he touched, and you wait on bated breath as he slowly unzips your dress, leaning over your body and caging you in.

“You looked so fucking sexy in this dress, but I think I prefer you like this.”

He slips the dress from your shoulders and slowly drags the fabric down your chest. The built-in bra saves him an extra step and he silently thanks the gods above for the design of this dress.

“Fuck,” he moans when he palms your breasts in his hands and your breath hitches as he attaches his mouth to one of your nipples, lightly sucking and grazing his teeth across the bud.

Your hands start to unbutton his shirt as he pulls moan after moan from your body, playing you like an instrument that he’s long since mastered.

You tug at his shirt and he stands up straight, pulling it the rest of the way off his arms before grabbing his white undershirt behind his neck and pulling it over his head. He tilts his head slightly, encouraging you to finish taking off your dress and heels as he rids himself of the rest of his clothes.

Once your clothes are piled on the floor, he runs his hands along your hips before leaning down to kiss you. His tongue darts out and licks at your lips before diving into you. As he lays you back on the bed with the weight of his body, you feel his hands lift you up, moving you higher on the bed flush against him.

His hands refamiliarize themselves with your skin as his tongue claims you, his grip alternating between rough and tender as he revels in your gasps. His kisses trail down to your neck before you feel a hand snake between your legs.

He runs two fingers along your slick, and groans at the wetness already there.

“Already this wet for me?” he growls into your neck.

His fingers circle your clit, once, twice, before he slowly inches them inside you.

When he's knuckle deep, he curls them and your head falls back against the bed in bliss. He slowly starts to pump them inside you, curling them just right to make you squeal.

You shouldn’t be surprised that he knows how to play your body so well, after all, he's the only one who's ever touched you like this, but it still surprises you every time.

His fingers slip in and out of you so easily, Bakugou can barely think straight. The only thought running through his head is ‘mine, mine, mine.’ He wants to ruin you so softly and completely it makes his dick ache.

“Baby,” his voice comes out slurred and full of yearning, “tell me what you want so I can give it to you.”

His fingers are still curling into you and you blink away stars as you try to respond.

“Please, Daddy. Want your cock, please,” you squeal.

Your body is just on the brink of orgasm, your legs shaking as you feel the pressure in your core ready to snap until Katsuki pulls away from you completely.

You let out a whine at the loss of contact.

“Don't be so dramatic, princess,” he rolls his eyes, “You’ll get to cum on my cock, don't worry. I’ll take care of you.”

“Please, want your cock,” you begin to babble. Your words make Katsuki’s dick twitch when he gives himself a few strokes before lining the tip to your dripping hole.

He presses the tip in and watches your eyes flutter. He knows he's big, but it makes his chest swell with pride at your reaction to his cock every single time. He presses in deeper as your walls try to suck his soul out. He gives you small thrusts until he bottoms out in you.

Your nails scrape down his back leaving red marks in their wake. You feel so full of him and your mind is peacefully quiet, only filled with how good he makes you feel.

“Daddy, more,” you plead as you clench around him, trying to will him to move.

“Fuck, don't do that or you’re gonna make me cum,” he growls into your neck.

He slowly pulls out, enjoying the drag against your plush walls, before slamming into you again and starting a steady, but brutal, pace. His cock prods against the spongy spot inside you with every stroke and you swear that you could die happy right here in his arms with his cock inside of you.

Your moans mix in the air with his breathy pants before he’s kissing you fiercely again. Lips moving harshly against his as he continues to pound into you.

One of his hands grabs yours and entwines your fingers above your head, giving him leverage to start slamming his cock into you deeper and harder, kissing your cervix with each thrust.

Your walls are pulsing around him and he knows you're close. Your legs are shaking around his waist as your body arches off the bed and he presses his thumb against your clit.

He watches as your eyes roll into the back of your head and as your body tenses and you moan his name.

“K-katsukiiii.”

His hips buck into you harder, drawing out your orgasm while his inches closer and closer.

“Mine. Mine. Mine.” He growls over and over until his thrust becomes uneven and he's spilling into you. His thick cum warms you from the inside as his cock stays buried in your walls.

His lips claim yours as he pulls out of you slowly. You can feel the mixture of your cums seem out onto your thighs but you can't be bothered just yet to do anything about it.

Katsuki rolls onto his side, careful not to squish your legs, and pulls you into him. Your rational brain starts to wake up with each passing minute.

Alarm bells start to go off in your head. You really need to get out of here before something bad happens. Rule number 3, the one you haven’t broken: no cuddling.

You go to move off the bed to gather your clothes, but Katsuki holds you to his chest.

“Please stay.” He whispers so gently it tugs at your heart.

“I can't,” you say, trying to turn away from him again.

He lets you get up and you stand to start dressing yourself.

“What can I do to get you to stay? Just till morning. We could go get breakfast, I want to—"

“Bakugou. I can't stay. I can't do” —you gesture between the two of you like you're quickly tracing the red string connecting you— “whatever this is to you.”

He is visibly taken aback when you call him by his family name and it takes him a second to blink away his shock.

“No you don't… that's not what this is. I need to tell you—”

You cut him off with a wave of your hand just as you finish getting dressed.

“I can't. I just can't.”

You can feel yourself receding into that dark place again, afraid of being hurt, afraid of heartache, and you curse yourself for even being in this situation again. But you're so weak to everything having to do with Bakugou Katsuki. Just your name on his lips makes your heart burn, but you shove that piece of yourself deep down.

You start to walk to the door to his apartment and Bakugou scrambles to follow you, throwing on his boxers as he struggles to catch up.

“At least let me get you an Uber or something!” he yells after you.

Your hand stops on the doorknob before you open it.

“I'm sorry,” you mumble into the air before turning the knob.

He jumps to reach you in time but the door slams right in his face.

Just like that, you leave him, just like he left you. The irony is not lost on him, but he wishes that just once his heart wouldn't break into a million pieces.

He crumples on the floor with his back resting against the door. His hands rake through his hair before he lets out an anguished and frustrated yell.

He doesn't blame you. He's not angry at you. He is miserable with himself.

He doesn't run after you like he wants, doesn't beg on his hands and knees for you like he should because he thinks you need your space. You need to not be crowded by him and to work through your feelings on your own. Or at least that’s what he and Kirishima talked about but fuck, every cell in his body yearns for you.

He makes his way back to his bed slowly, dragging his feet before flopping onto the mattress. He places his nose where your head was on his bed just minutes ago and takes a deep breath and the scent of you lulls him into a dreamless state.

At least he will see you in two weeks for your birthday party, he thinks before he passes out.

Shigaraki, Dabi, Shinsou and Kirishima getting caught.

Request: is it okay to ask for headcanons with Dabi, Shinsou, Shigaraki and Kirishima getting caught making out with their female s/o? - anonymous

Things are getting spicy *not really*. That’s all I have to say. Love yaa. 💖💖💖

rules

warnings: spicy times

Shigaraki Tomura

-He’s so touch starved.

-And as much as he dislikes touching others because of his quirk he still wants to be held.

-So when you two get together and he slowly gets a grip on this new situation he is at peace.

-Kisses are his favorite.

-Kisses are a very intimate action that can both be soft and dirty.

-He adored when you kissed him.

-He didn’t know much about affection but giving you a kiss when you woke up or when you came back from a mission was a must.

-Now, he is a male.

-A horny one at that.

-When your relationship reaches the stage of um NSFW content he couldn’t keep his hands off of you.

-When he couldn’t have you right then and there he would just kiss the hell out of you.

-Make out sessions with his crusty ass are a ride.

-He switches between teasing you with little nips to full out swallowing you.

-He never fails to make your knees weak though.

-You’ll be feeling your knees buckle as he has you caged between him and the wall behind the bar.

-He didn’t like the others seeing him being all soft for you so he tends to hide his affection while around LoV.

-Except Kurogiri.

-Kurogiri is his dad and he is proud to see his boy getting himself a s/o.

-Now back to the others.

-Dabi and Spinner maybe Mister Compress as well are all little shits that would most likely push him to his freaking limit and you’ll have to hold him back.

-Toga and Twice will be weird about it, Toga will fangirl over you two kissing while Twice will go from praising Shiggy *since you’re hot af* to asking him how much you scream when yall are doing the deed.

-They all are a headache for him and he hates how uncomfortable they make both of you feel.

-So it’s a really rare occasion when they actually catch you two making out.

-But one day Shiggy was feeling overly needy and you couldn’t do the do so he started kissing your neck and soon enough he had reached your lips.

-He backed you up to the nearest wall and pinned your hands above your head, raising one of your legs and hooking it over his waist.

-You were just as needy so you could only whine and let out small moans as he kissed you silly.

- “Oh god I’m gonna throw up from the crustyness- Awwww how cute.”

-Twice.....

-Shiggy jumped away from you but his kiss swollen lips gave him away immediately.

-The rest of the league filed in after him and their eyes were glued to your lips or your panting.

- “Getting freaky on a job? And then you say I’m a horn dog.”

-It was Dabi this time who spoke.

-The teasing came in from the rest of the team and you both slowly died from embarrassment.

-What was more embarrassing was that maybe just maybe Shiggy had gotten a little TOO excited and was now hiding behind you.

-Yeah kissing him was a roller coaster.

Dabi

-Salty bitch is also needy.

-Sure he may be trying to convince himself that you are just friends with benefits but that doesn’t mean he can’t kiss you silly.

-Does it make his stomach flutter when you kiss?

-Yes.

-Does he feel something warm stir in his chest?

-Yes...

-Does he feel at home every time you are on his lap, arms around his neck as you smile into your kiss?

-Also yes.

-What’s you point?

-Anyways, he really likes kissing you.

-Whenever you two are kissing you can’t really know whats in store for you.

-It may be a soft kiss, gentle and slow the type that manages to steal your breath away because you never would have expected Dabi to be this careful.

-Or it may be rough and dominant, your knees buckle by the sheer force he puts into the kiss and you are definitely getting ready for some spicy times.

-He isn’t against PDA like Shiggy, he can take the teasing and the disgusting glances he gets from the rest of the LoV but you rarely give in to his antics.

-Since you are just friends with benefits why should you?

-You have told him as such when he questioned your behavior.

-It hurts him in some weird way that he doesn’t like.

-Boy can’t accept the fact that he may be falling in love.

-So he ignores you just like you ignore him.

-Sure you have your special nights before missions but apart from that nothing else.

-You avoid each other like the plague.

-Eventually it gets to him.

-The sexual tension between you two is insufferable and the way he has to stay away from you is killing him.

-He wants to hold you again.

-God I’m soft for him.

-During one of your late nights you went outside for some fresh air because the atmosphere inside the bar was becoming suffocating from the cigarette smoke.

-That was his chance and he took it, trailing after you.

-You looked at each other for some time and I kid you not you didn’t know who moved first.

-Your lips connected and it felt so right.

-His hands roamed your sides as the kiss grew hungry and you knew what would follow.

-Then you heard the squeaking of the door opening and saw Toga at the entrance.

-Her eyes were glued on you two, Dabi’s eyes opening for a split second glancing at her before he pushed you to a wall and deepened the kiss even more.

-Toga let out a flustered giggle before going back inside.

-When you pulled apart for air, you were both panting lips red and swollen as your eyes never left the others.

- “I want to kiss you more often.”

-That was his way of saying he wanted something more than what you had right now.

-You just kissed him again.

Shinsou Hitoshi

-Poor baby is also a touch starved kitty.

-You know he loves you, he has told you as such many times while you were cuddling.

-The number of his hoodies that are now yours until they lose his s=scent is ridiculous.

-You wearing his hoodies was a way to say that you were his and he was yours.

-That didn’t stop people from hitting on you though.

-Many believed that Shinsou was plain old passive and maybe even weak.

-Everyone was aware of his quirk and what it could do so they assumed that he didn’t like using it because it would make him look villainous.

-So they took that into their advantage and hit on you mercilessly.

-You always pushed them away and roast their asses.

-They even have the audacity to flirt with you while Shinsou is close to yall.

-And it hurts his feelings poor baby.

-Did others really see him as not good enough for you?

-His insecurities get the better of him and he pouts for the rest of the day.

-Until you are alone and you cuddle the life out of him, peppering him with kisses and ‘I love you’s.

-You set out to scare his insecurities away with your affection.

-There are times though when his insecurities don’t come out.

-They are replaced by jealousy.

-And a jealous Shinsou is a horny Shinsou.

-He would drag you somewhere you couldn’t be seen easily and would just kiss the life out of you.

-Your leg is probed over his waist as his hand was squeezing your upper thigh.

-His other hand is buried in your hair as he nips at your neck, jaw , lower lip before he starts to kiss you again.

-You let out little moans as he continues driving you crazy.

- “Shinsou man wasn’t that your girl back there-”

-Kaminari.

-Of course.

-The lights went out when you two parted and Kami was faced with your flustered face and Shinsou’s swollen lips.

-He passed out like a second later, his face a beet red as little sparks left his fingers.

-It was hilarious and embarrassing.

-You had to apologize when he woke up but before you could do anything, Shinsou managed to pin you to the wall again and leave a very obvious hickey on the column of your neck.

-No one approached you after they saw that hickey.

-Maybe one or two tried getting with you again.

-The next day you appeared with another hickey.

-They got the message boo.

Kirishima Eijirou

-Hesitation?

-What is that?

-Don’t know her.

-His PDA game is so strong.

-He legit can’t keep his hands off of you.

-An arm around your waist, one of his hands in your back pocket, hugs from behind, small kisses on the cheek or pecks on the lips.

-The bakusquad is sick of it.

-And by bakusquad I mean Bakugou.

-Mina is excited for her friend, Kaminari is a dumb horny idiot so he doesn’t mind borderline enjoys it and Sero....is high so he isn’t really in touch with reality.

-So kissing you in public was common.

-Small pecks though.

-Making out sessions in public is a nono.

-You made that rule because you didn’t like the looks you were getting.

-Now if he suggests that you go behind the school for some one on one time you won’t so no per say.

-Sure you’ll hesitate but after a few soft kisses that lingered just enough to leave you wanting for more.

-You basically pounce on him.

-Once you are behind the school you don’t waste time before your lips are on his and the kiss is turning hungry.

-Hands under his shirt as his own hands roam your thighs.

-He may dip under your skirt for a fleeting moment making you gasp and kissing you harder.

-You never go further while you’re out in public.

-Public kissing is different form public sex.

-Much different.

-While you are kissing him everything zones out and he is the only thing you can concentrate on.

-Then you hear a choking sound and a high pitched squeal.

-Turning around you are met with a passed out Izuku and a nose bleeding Mineta who has zoned in on Kiri’s hand under your skirt.

-You have a stare off with the grape boy before the embarrassment sets in and you are hiding behind you boyfriend, shielding yourself from Mineta’s eyes as much as you can and bury your head in his shirt.

-Kirishima is still looking at Izuku who is passed out.

-Then he notices Mineta who is drooling over your legs that are peeking out from behind Kiri and he goes straight to protective boyfriend mode.

-He is grabbing your hand as he gives you a last kiss on the cheek and tells you to take Izuku to Recovery Girl.

-He will deal with Mineta.

-He too ended up in Recovery Girl sporting a black eye.

-Love this little shark with all my heart.

BakuSquad’s Boy Part 1

A/N: Based on a fic that doesn’t exist anymore :( I’ll be adding my own head canons from what i remember of the og fic. This whole thing is in a headcanon format :)))

Kirishima was sitting down when he noticed their new transfer student walking into the cafeteria looking lost. Without thinking twice he quickly caught the attention of the male and motioned him to come over.

“Is it okay if I join you?” you asked, recognizing the spiky haired student as your classmate.

“Of course, let me introduce you to everybody!”

The redhead introduced all the guys sitting at the table. The talkative blonde with the lightning bolt in his hair was Kaminari . The smiling black haired boy with oddly shaped elbows was Sero and the angry-faced pale blonde with red eyes was Bakugo. While the rest smiled at you he merely sneered and ignored you.

“Don’t let him bother you too much, he's a grouch!” Kirishima said smiling.

The entire lunch period was spent talking to the Bakusquad and explaining how you transferred from the hero school in your home country and enrolled at UA. Laughing with them and bonding over memes and hero training.

It didn’t take long for you to become part of the friend group.

Y’all are a chaotic group of motherfuckers

The group chat is mess; Bakugo is trying to help people w homework, Zero is constantly sharing tick tocks and at 2 am Denki will spam it with memes ( which pisses Bakugo off bc it wakes him up when he forgets to mute his notifications)

Y’all will study together, which surprisingly, can be super productive sometimes.

It honestly didn’t take very long for you guys to become inseparable. They have you back and you have theirs. Training and working out together is a plus because sometimes y’all are too busy to actually fully hangout.

Kirishima will compliment you in a “manly” way and will totally be your hype man. Will be ecstatic when you give back the same energy. One time Bakugo joined you guys for his morning workout and his jaw almost fell to the ground when he saw you take your shirt off. He couldn’t help but stare like holy shit you were ripped. Training with Kiri really did pay off. Bakugo smirked to himself when he noticed his red haired friend was also checking you out when you didn’t notice.

Going to the mall with Sero and Denki is a whole ass ride. Y’all will go to so many stores and either waste all your money or just fuck around. Hot Topic is definitely a favorite of theirs. They don’t care if it’s not your vibe because they will want to deck you out in the fitting rooms to see what you look like. Once they pushed the curtain before you were done changing your shirt and both pairs of eyes went straight to your body, making you blush.

After being friends for so long the Bakusquad could read each other's emotions and all recognized that they had crushes on you. They talked about it and concluded that this would by no means would get between their friendship but would amicably flirt with you.

They organized a sleepover not too long after. But it was basically them all fighting each other about who’s room they would be staying in. Ended up going to Bakugo’s room because it was the closest for most of them. When you got there you were so caught up with the movie that you didn't realize they were low-key fighting each other for a spot next to you/ touching you in general. It was when y’all were going to sleep when you realized you left your sheets and what not in your room. Bakugo without missing a beat said you could sleep with him which then prompted Denki to tell you that “Bakugo’s feet smell like shit you don't wanna sleep with him” for Kiri to go “ Hey that isn’t manly, you should sleep w me Y/N.”. While the three of them were battling it out you and Sero were just sitting crouched in the corner. “I mean Y/N I could always get sheets and stuff from my rooms ‘cause it's not that far from here.” only for Bakugo to throw a pillow straight in his face yelling “Shut it Soy-Sauce face!!” Yeah they felt really bad in the morning when you ended up sleeping on the floor with nothing covering you.

Sero will want to smoke with you. The first time he smoked with you, you ended up having a panic attack and he felt responsible for making you panic and so anxious. He tries to smoke by himself for the meanwhile until you convince him to let you try again. It goes much better this time. Y’all start vibing to his latin playlist and he tries to teach you but y’all just end up stumbling over each other and constantly laughing. When dancing becomes physically exhausted and watches tick tocks and videos on his phone. Which ends up with y’all crying over the video where the racoon tries to wash his cotton candy but it dissolves. At some point the tears become too much and you both reach for each other which ends up with y'all sobbing and cuddling each other. Y’all fell asleep like this :)

The whole squad smokes at one point or another. Kirishima does it whenever he’s just in the mood to hangout and he uber chills. Bakugo does it to relieve stress and just enjoy life a bit. Denki smokes the 2nd most in the group just whenever he needs to kill time or he wants to vibe.

There will be times when y'all will smoke together and just fuck shit up. Like, one night after exam y’all are smoking but shit starts getting wild. Like y'all are hopping off the walls and dancing around to random music. Denki will find a roach that's stuck on its back and trying to get back off its legs but y’all are dancing all around it thinking it's like break dancing. “ AYYYY FUCK IT UP” Bakugo would yell “GET INTO IT” Sero would then yell. One of y’all took a video and accidentally posted it on Snapchat so the next day Mina would ask like wth happened last night bc y’alls tik toks and snapchats were wack af. Sero would probably speak on behalf of the group and say “ We were just really hyper.

When they all become hyper aware of their feelings not only for you but like low-key for each other they all change a lil bit. Like:

Denki stops flirting with people outside of the Baku Squad. He’s more touchy with y’all. Holding onto arms, arms over shoulders, hands on waists, holding hands, sitting in y’alls laps (this is a big one)

Kirishima has more energy when he’s with you guys. Like he could be running lower on battery than normal but one of y'all just comes up to him and he lights up like a light bulb.

Bakugo stops ruining desks and promptly yelling at people. He’s toned down and becomes a bit more chilled out. Mostly when he's with you guys. He is still a grumpy gremlin when he is with people who aren’t the Baku Squad.

Sero actually hides it pretty well and no one notices and changes that are indicative of a crush. Probably a bit more confident in himself

Kirishima and Denki acting like they haven't seen each other in sages when it really has only been like five minutes.

“ OMG BRO IT'S BEEN FOREVER”

“OMG DENKI MY MAN I MISSED YOU SM!”

“ BRO C’MERE AND PLANT A PHAT ONE ON ME!”

“HELL YA MY DUDE, THIS IS GONNA BE MANLY.”

And then proceed to aggressively walk toward each other, slap each others asses and plant a kiss on each other's cheeks before erupting into a huge fit of laughter. While people around them are just like ‘wtf is going on’

Touching becomes a thing.

Y’all will actively find each other when y'all want a hug or cuddles or smth. Forehead and cheek kisses are a thing. Bakugo takes much longer to warm up to everyone starting really with you and Kirishima. most comfortable holding y’alls hands loosely and rubbing your knuckles. Denki probably does this the most. He lives for physical affection, just give this poor boy his much needed cuddles and kithes.

Despite y’all high-key crushing for each other you all still are absolutely focused on your career paths as heros. Bakugo helping teach english and you trying to help ( if you know english well enough to teach )

“Ok idiots for the last time what word do we use to describe Sarah?”

“I mean she took these poor dudes apples and all of these are positive adjectives...i think.”

“Yeah Sarah’s kind of a bitch.”

“SHUT IT YOU TOO AND ANSWER THE DAMN QUESTION!”

“I mean Bakubro they aren’t wrong...”

“NOT YOU TOO KIRI!”

You guys work so well during team vs fights bc of how well you all know each other.

It’s an absolute mess but y’all love eachother <3

I will be making a part 2 ( + 3 i think ) so hang around for more :)

Bakusquad and skirts

Bakugou Kastuki

Hella embarrassed at first.

He’s never worn anything like this before!

It just feels so weird being able to feel the soft breeze between his thighs all of a sudden

Luckily Kiri is there to encourage him (along w/ the rest of the squad)

After some time (and lots of compliments), mans will start feeling a lot less awkward

Like his confidence is suddenly through the roof??

Acts like he was never even shy about it in the first place

Compliment him and he’ll give you a scoff and grumble out a small,“thanks” or, “whatever” as he turns away from you trying to hide his red face (unfortunately his ears give him away)

Insulting or teasing him will result in a swift blast to face accompanied by a loud, “PISS OFF ASSWIPE!”

Overall not the worst or most embarrassing thing Baku could’ve done

Kirishima Eijiro

Also very embarrassed (his face is as red as hair)

Feels kinda self-conscience at first

Really afraid the wind will blow his skirt up so he’s constantly pulling it down

Quickly gets used to it and actually enjoys having some breeze on his legs (especially when it gets hot)

Likes to twirl around and watch his skirt sway with him. It looks so cool!

Feels manly ass hell flexing in his short, frilly skirt that shows off his thigh muscles

Give this man any compliment and he’d get all nervous again

He’d say stuff like,”aw thanks man!” while rubbing the back of his neck or he may even remark that,”you’d look good in a skirt too” if you don’t wear them that often

If you tease him he won’t be too bothered. He knows how to take a joke unlike someone

Just don’t do it too much or you might actually hurt his feelings

Now insulting him will actually hurt his feelings and put a damper on his confidence

Guess he doesn’t look as good as he thought..

The squad will be there in seconds to cheer this man up again

And moments later his confidence will be back and he’d be flexing throughout the day again to show off more of his manliness

No further negative comments can ruin this guys mood!

Kaminari Denki

Feels confident af

He looks good and he knows it

Wearing a skirt is so freeing

And comfortable

Poses for any photo like a magical girl or a model (and makes sure to show off his legs)

Struts around in school with his head held high and a smug look on his face knowing that everyone’s staring cause he just looks this charming (but really they’re staring cause of his overzealous model walk and weird facial expression)

Flirts with girls more now and even tries to flirt with a couple guys

How can anyone possibly resist his charm when he’s just so attractive???

Legit feels like he can get anything or anyone in his skirt

Compliments will lead to excessive flirting and pick up lines

Any insults or negative comments won’t even faze this man,”you don’t really think that...you’re just jealous!” “too bad, you’ll never look as good as me.”

Ashido Mina

Has no problem wearing the skirt itself because she wears one normally anyway

Also has probably worn frilly skirts before so it’s nothing out of the ordinary for her

Will still feel empowered af while wearing it though

Like Kaminari, she flaunts her stuff the whole day because she knows she looks cute as hell

Won’t be as in you’re face about it as him tho but will make subtle remarks to fish out more compliments from her fellow classmates

Will definitely do random dance moves throughout the day

One, to show off more (she likes attention)

And two. it just feels so good to sway her hips to her own rhythm in her flowy kilt

Any compliment will earn you an,”aww.. thank you!” from Mina while she gives you a big, warm smile

She may even hug you depending on your chose of words

Though it’s pretty rare to see Mina embarrassed, with the right level of smoothness and kind words you may get the chance to see her turn away bashfully holding both cheeks in her hands and swooning with an,”oh stop it! you’re making me blush!”

Insults probably won’t affect her that much (she’d probably ignore them)

The most she’ll do is turn away from you calling you a,”meanie” claiming that you’re,”totally killing her vibe”

Sero Hanta

Alright, so you’re boy has never really worn a skirt before but he’d totally be willing to give it a try

Honestly not that embarrassed (generally pretty chill about it)

Will admit it is pretty comfy though (the cool breeze it nice)

Doesn’t really draw too much attention to it

It doesn’t feel abnormal wearing a skirt at all so he doesn’t really understand the judgement that comes with wearing one as a male

Like it’s just a piece of clothing??

Will honestly forget he’s even wearing one half way through the day till someone points it out

It just feels so natural

He’s very good at taking compliments and will most likely compliment you back as well

“oh, you think i look cute?” “well thank you!” “you’re looking pretty cute today too” (he winks at you whenever he compliments you)

He’s also very mature when it comes to anyone insulting him in any way

He won’t take it personally but will still be disappointed

Jirou Kyouka

The most embarrassed

She’s worn skirts before but never ones this short (it’s not revealing or anything but definitely shorter than she’s used to)

Will be blushy and awkward the whole day

Also the most self-conscience

She’s never worn these kinds of skirts before so she can’t tell if it flatters her or not

But it does

And her friends are sure to tell her that (especially Mina and Hagakure)

Cue even more blushing

Will constantly be tugging and pulling at her skirt the whole day attempting to lessen her awkwardness (and her beating heart)

But she just ends up looking more awkward doing fidgeting like that

Auggh..she’s just so nervous..

Also super scared the wind will end up blowing her skirt up and revealing everything

That would seriously be the worst!

Please grace her with all your compliments, she truly deserves it!

Sure it will turn her into a red-faced, stuttering mess but at least it’ll boost her confidence a little

“i-i..uh..um-..t-than-” ”thank..you”, she stutters out, her eyes blinking from side to side, trying to look anywhere but at you

If you find yourself to be heartless enough to insult this nervous wreck you’ll be met by a dejected expression as she hangs her head low avoiding your eyes,”o-oh i see..”

You’re focus would be on Jirou so you wouldn’t notice the firey aura coming from behind her

One minute you’re standing in front of a down cast Jirou the next you’re knocked on your ass in front of a very pissed off group of girls who had previously slapped you in the face for your harsh words

Oh, you’d better say your prayers

Playing Just Dance with MHA characters headcannons

I can see Denki being really bad but also really into it.

Todoroki is the type who just moves their hands and gets a perfect score

Mina and s/o are ✨killing it✨ obviously

Iida keeps getting bad scores because he can only do the hand chop thingy

Kirishima’s dancing all the “girly” songs like: 💃 manly 💃

Somehow Mirio got in and be brought Tamkai and Nejire before starting to 🕺dance 🕺

Monoma found out everyone was dancing and challenged 1-A to a dance battle but no one in 1-B cared so they just started dancing with 1-A because they were actually invited

TestuTesu joined Kiri in his 💃manly dance💃

And Sero taped Mineta up in his room so the grape isn’t there to ruin the mood

This all happened on a Monday night so all the teachers are like 🧍‍♂️ really? 🧍‍♂️

Also I think it would be really cute because there’s a bunch of songs that are for/ their implied to be for romantic couples

omg I can see it (these are really short cause theres a lot, also I based the songs on what I think your relationship would be like, sorry for my poor music taste lol)

Just dance party with mha characters

style: headcannons

Genre: fluff

warnings: none!

“Come on Todoroki~ You gotta move some more!! It’s called just dance not just stand!” (mina)

“I don’t see the point of flailing my arms around when I can just move my hand and get a ‘perfect’“ (Todoroki)

Denki and s/o:

You’re is definitely winning

He gets all pouty about it

He may or may not google “how to beat Just Dance every time”

But he’s still having fun

He’d pick you on the high note and kiss you all passionately

Song: Electric love, by BORNS (come on, did you really think i’d pick something else?)

Todoroki and S/o

He’s not that into it

Please stop making him dance to “hot n cold” by Katy Perry.

He’ll end up making some dark joke about his past halfway through and everyone would look at him like ‘you good bro?’

He’d hold your pinky with his left hand because he really only needs his right in order to win

Song: Snowman by Sia

Mina and s/o

She’s going 101%

Of course she’s dominating everyone (Todoroki’s a close second though)

She’s going be extra af

You’re both wearing matching outfits, there's no debating this.

Every time you get a ‘perfect’ expect her to kiss your cheek

Song: E.T by Katy Perry

Iida and s/o

He’ll get annoyed

He’d end up saying the game was rigged and he was doing the dances perfectly

Mina and her s/o would be rolling

Please cheer for him or tell him he’s going great. It make’s him feel all warm and fuzzy inside (it gets him all flustered as well)

Song: Mr. Loverman Ricky Montgomery (but only the slowed with rain)

Kirishima and s/o

He’s doing pretty good

Bakugo might’ve made fun of him for the songs

But he doesn’t care

He’d totally just sweep you off your feet and kiss you halfway through

Song: Swim by Alec Benjamin (I know it isn’t necessarily girly but shh)

Big three (I just combined them)

Mirio and Nejire keep going against each other, Nejire really likes rematches

Tamaki is just in the corner like

(whispering) “Yeah! you go guys...”

He wants to play but he doesn’t want to get made fun of. Please sit next to him and comfort him

Mirio’s loud asf and will probably give you a piggy back ride when he wins

Nejire’s just happy to be here

Mirios song: if we have each other by Alec Benjamin

Nejires song: Ophelia by the Lumineers

Tamakis song: Riptide by Vance Joy

Monoma and s/o

You best believe he’s challenging you as well

Just humor him and dance

He’s not going to do anything publicly but when you get back to the dorms he’s either going to be ranting or bragging

He’s honestly not that good and everyone points it out except you

Song: Bad Romance by Lady Gaga

Tetsutetsu and s/o

Him and Kirishima are rocking out

I mean full on ‘bro’ moment

You and Kendo just waited it out

Eventually him and Kirishima got tired so you swooped in and beat Kendo

Song: Angel with a shotgun, The Cab

Sero and s/o

thank god for this man

You and him just be sitting off to the side with Kendo and Tetsutetsu’s s/o, sharing stories and telling jokes

Really chill vibes coming from you guys

He may play a round with you or Kaminari

Lots of kisses

Kendo don’t mind though, everyone knows you’re the “PDA” couple

Song: Pierre by Ryn Weaver

A/n Shit this took forever. Again I apologize for my trash taste

bnha characters as volleyball players (au headcanons)

i have never in my life played volleyball outside of gym class and the occasional beach jaunt, so this is all based off of what i learned from haikyuu LOL

anyways, this started as tags from this fanart by @syblatortue of deku, kacchan, kiri, sero, iida and shouto as vball players, and then it got away from me so if you wanna read 2.9k worth of headcanons about powerhouse athletics high school UA then go ahead and press “read more” :)

deku's the calculating setter like kenma and he fanboys over stats from the international to the national to the high school

kacchan used to make fun of him and look down on him bc he used to think too much on court to move properly, and as a kid kacchan used to think that it was spiking or bust so he always gave deku grief and bullied him over being slow and weak

in middle school kacchan was a starter since first year and eventually became the ace but deku was always second string setter

his athleticism was nothing to write home about but he was just good enough to make the bench

in their middle school tournament their starting setter got injured and deku had to step in to set for a match for the first time ever

powerhouse volleyball high school coach yagi toshinori is watching and he sees all the aborted plans in deku's setting choices

he sees the gutsy sets that miss and the one successful dump he did that threw everyone off-guard (even deku himself), and yagi remembers what it was like to be hungry for volleyball seeing the look in this kid's eyes and he recognizes the brain on him

their team loses there though bc the fact is that deku wasnt athletic enough to do it and kacchan is yelling and deku's crying

but yagi approaches deku (who freaks out bc all might is THE legendary vball player of their country, and the nation was SHOOK when after getting severely injured by a malicious spike in the wrong place he chose to coach high school vball, even if the school was a powerhouse school and also his alma mater lol)

but anyways deku babbles and fanboys even through his tears and says he got into UA but he's not sure he can make the vball team, and yagi says he sees the potential in deku's plays and if he trains hard every. single. day. from now until the tryouts at UA, he might make at least the bench

(cue montage)

kacchan is angry to see deku at tryouts and fuckn RAGING when deku more or less keeps up bc deku got buff since their last high school match

unfortunately for kacchan he is actually the one most familiar with deku's playing since they trained together in middle school too, and he almost pops a blood vessel just thinking it but ever since deku started actually being able to get to the ball in time, vball has been more fun ‘cuz the things deku ends up doing are fucking batshit crazy and his sets are begrudgingly his favourite to hit

deku sets right where kacchan can just hit the ball as violently as he can, and it sounds like a bomb goes off when the spike hits the ground

(kacchan also obviously has the best serves and he mixes it up with the power ones like his ap shots, or floaters when he's strategic; he knows how to read the opposing team and either wait or serve really fast and serves up high to blind them like his flashbomb explosions, and he’s really arrogant about his serves but at least he can back it up as per classic kacchan)

anyways they become a really intimidating duo, apart but especially together, because despite the way deku still occasionally cowers from kacchan’s rage and kacchan is often yelling and antagonizing deku, they can read each other really smoothly on court and they match each other really easily, and they both go for the really gutsy shit no one else would think to try (like samu and tsumu going for the freak quick with samu setting kind of gutsy)

kacchan is also antagonizing af and calls the other team extras lol

but yeah, those two along with renown olympic vball player todoroki enji's son shouto are the three most intimidating first years at UA

enji has a very aggressive playing style and where he targets people on the opposing team specifically to make them sweat, makes them feel like he’s hot on their heels even from the other side of the net, always glaring, always strong

shouto hates it and hates the way his dad made him train day in and day out just because he had a good reaction time and instincts for the ball when he was young

fuyumi and natsuo were slow as kids and got immediately dismissed bc of it bc to enji if they werent athletic enough for the ideal vball playing style as children then theyd never be athletic enough to beat all might’s vball career and metrics in the future

touya was fast enough but he overtrained and strained his knees and then continued straining them to play anyways till they were permanently damaged, and by the time he graduated middle school, his doctor put him on orders to never ever ever do anything that might be overly strenuous for his knees ever again

anyways, shouto plays very cool and detached, like even when he spikes the ball right into your face you’ll feel like he wasn’t looking; he’s a middle blocker like suna, stays calm but uses his whole body

deku eventually convinces him that playing with fire every once in a while, especially when he spikes, can be a good thing because at the end of the day, his dad may have taught him the tricks but it’s shouto himself who’s playing, and so it’s not his dad’s style, it’s his own

also the spikes just aren’t as good or as psychologically effective if shouto’s not 100p IN it when he goes to spike one of deku’s demanding sets

and im gonna say shouto is ambidextrous but more comfortable with his left hand in this volleyball au because shouto’s left side is his fire side, and it’s more parallel to the character to make his more aggressive spiking hand his left one but still have him be able to use his left hand for spikes too (it’s also SO stressful for opponents bc angles)

also yes he does indeed only play with his right hand (his ice side) when he gets into UA, and is initially very hellbent on proving to his father that he can become a pro vball player without being as aggressive as enji on court and without using his more dominant hand, the hand that his dad’s been focusing on whenever they trained at home, the hand he’s spent hours and hours spiking and serving with since he was like five years old

one day deku notices shouto’s writing with his left hand and then connects the dots and sort of badgers him into spiking one of his sets with his left hand too and then yeah shouto tells him his life story and deku manages to emotionally coerce him into being okay with his left-handed spikes

(shouto also feels better about it when deku points out the left-handed angles thing)

so yeah that’s the big three scary first year starters: calculating and gutsy deku, who occasionally makes plays so gutsy he’s at risk of twisting one of his limbs in a very scary way (he’s always bruised in weird ass places from volleyball); raging, aggressive but also cunning kacchan, who is undoubtedly the loudest on any court he’s on, and ambidextrous hot and cold shouto, who does a pretty solid general defense with little holes but has scary aggressive spikes

btw shouto’s got a fanclub and they call him the volleyball prince

also at one point they totally play a practice match against shiketsu and UA loses bc inasa starts antagonizing shouto for being exactly like his father (inasa asked for enji’s autograph after a match once when he was a kid and got rudely blown off) and shouto gets offended and starts targeting inasa and then they get outplayed (it was a close match though ‘cuz both of them couldnt get their heads out of their asses and both their teams were suffering as a result)

alrighty, the other players in that fanart lmao!

kirishimaaaaa my dude my bro, super solid libero, always pumps up the team, and his defense is unbreakable! will receive even the scariest, most powerful spikes and smile cheerfully through it; will always insist that you’re manly for playing with everything you have and never letting fear get in the way of going for it

his middle school had a huge and scary substitute gym teacher who didn’t have mercy and spiked hard right to the faces of the students, and kiri really wanted to run forward to receive the spike and yell about how unfair this teacher was but he froze because the spike seemed unforgiving and if he received it wrong, what if his nose broke? what if he fell and broke something from the impact? mina didnt pause though and she received the spike and told off their substitute teacher and then reported it to their homeroom teacher and it was so manly of her, he promised himself he would never hesitate just bc of a scary spike again

btw mina’s all-around athletic and could probably make it onto the girls vball team but she’s probably on the UA dance team (UA is a powerhouse school for many sports, and theyre famous for their athletics department bc they often hire (former) pro-athletes to teach and coach)

iida comes from a family of sprint runners and he’s the one they trust for the most running; he’s their first year decoy and he’s fast af for such a big guy, and he often also provides extra block support from zooming left and right

also enjoys helping out the managers and corralling his team into being good students; he’d offer to tutor kirishima but kiri seems to have fun trying to be friends with bakugou lol; he makes it known that he’s there if kiri wants some extra patience to go along with his studies though

sero guess blocks so accurately people like to say that he’s got tape coming from his elbows, bringing the ball straight to his arms so that he can block; actually he’s pretty known for having weirdly accurate control bumping the ball back from places other than his hands (esp his elbows though), like he’s just so aware of his body, and he uses everything he can to keep the ball off the ground so he’s good at general defense

some other people i wanna mention:

aizawa’s their supervising teacher and the first year homeroom teacher (he gets to hear bakugou explode both first thing in the morning AND right at the end of the day, oh joy); all might just coaches ‘cuz he does other former pro stuff during class time, so he somehow ended up in charge of the volleyball club after the previous teacher stopped being able to

he never went pro but he’s a black belt mixed martial artist, and he still does those parent-child karate classes with hitoshi (who is now close to black belt and on the demo team, since they’ve been doing this since hitoshi was like five) and eri (who just got her yellow belt! aizawa is soft)

only hizashi, nemuri, oboro and his kids know this but he’s also REALLY good at doing aerial silk and he looks graceful af when he does it

hitoshi started kinda learning aerial silk when hizashi took him to a rock climbing place that had the silks on the ceiling (dont at me, there’s a place EXACTLY like this where i used to live lmao) and found out they offer classes there, and hizashi laughed and said “yknow your dad is pro at those right”

ochako is their first year manager, and when everyone is confused about kacchan continuing to call deku something so mean, she talks about how the nickname is cute and gives off the impression that he’s trying his best and when deku grins and blushes and seems to be happy with it, the whole team starts calling him deku with the same intentions and fondness behind it

every time other people hear UA calling their starting setter “deku” theyre so confused

nejire is the third year manager leaving and she does gymnastics and dance outside of school

mirio is the ace and his thing is that he is very strong and very precise, and he moves like he phases through the other players

tamaki is a middle blocker that can adapt all kinds of playing strategies pretty fast as long as he’s got time to digest them and decent food in his stomach—he’s a great decoy ‘cuz his spikes are hard and he’s pretty fast too, and while he prefers read blocking, there are a few times he guess blocks and it’s accurate af and kinda scary honestly

tamaki and mirio are also pretty fearsome ‘cuz people start off scared of mirio’s power spikes and serves (btw his goal is to spike a million service aces LOL), and then tamaki kind of surprises them ‘cuz he seems to be able to just? do everything??? (and theyre extra surprised bc no doubt he’ll be talking himself down and doubting himself before the match and the opponents will think like “oh good he’s mentally weak” and he kind of is but also holy shit??? we got blocked AGAIN???) and so they sort of only keep a peripheral eye on mirio while they start focusing on tamaki, and then all of a sudden mirio’s not where you thought he was and how’d he get there so fast and there other players in the way??? and then mirio spikes one in

this isn’t really related to anything else but you BET mirio can bend low and do insanely accurate bump receives from pretty close to the ground like! his thighs and knees are legend

we don’t really know any second year bnha students, but i’d like to think their starting team isn’t just first years, so i’d say like… hm or mb tamaki is starting setter (all the stuff about adapting and easily digesting strategies still applies, as well as his flexible skillset, it just now includes setting) and mirio is his ace, but all might puts deku in a lot more than you’d expect a bench player to be subbed in not only ‘cuz it shakes up the other team to see such a meek-looking kid do these gutsy-ass sets, but also bc it’s good for tamaki’s mental health that he feels like he’s got a really great setter right there supporting him as well, even though he knows (objectively) that he can hold the fort on his own

so yeah, id say tamaki and mirio for sure starters (mirio is captain), kirishima’s a starter (he’s always been really good, he just used to get a little scared off in matches sometimes, but since the thing with mina, he’s been really gunning for it, and also conveniently their last really good libero graduated the year before and they didn’t really have a good backup), shouto’s a starter (he’s lowkey mad about it bc it feels like he’s fulfilling his dad’s legacy and he doesnt want to be), and probably two second years, that feels fair

bakugou’s benched bc his temper’s still a little too unwieldy for the court (much to his dismay), sero’s still patching up holes in his defense, and deku could stand to watch other people’s playing styles, but u bet theyre all fearsome af when theyre on court: deku seems to be the only one that seems to be able to bring out shouto’s terrifying spikes for now; after their first qualifiers, rumours fly around the vball circuit about his angry pinch server that’s so mad he’s not a regular, he takes it all out on his serves and rip the team that has to try and receive them

well okay, so bakugou is the only that i can qualify as actually fearsome bc even when he’s being intimidating sero is a pretty chill dude, and deku looks too nice to really be scary so the opponents usually arent scared until he starts playing and then for them it’s just this internal monologue of “what the fuck? what the FUCK???”

and sero, while chill, is the type to be aggressively cheerful and grin really wide after he blocks and gives you, the opponent, really supportive feedback that sort of still offends you but in a way you cant refute because every word he said was nice and his demeanour was nice too and yet? you kinda wanna strangle him??? and then he laughs winsomely and blocks your next spike too (like, “awh i noticed you have a tendency to follow here when xyz happens, but better luck next time right? that’s usually a pretty good play”)

and of COURSE their school banner says “plus ultra”

ANYWAYS i went OFF lmao i can’t believe i really wrote 2.9k of headcanons for this

i have waaaay more ideas about what the rest of the class and other characters are up to in this au that is powerhouse athletics high school UA so if for some reason you got all the way to the end then thank you and please interact if you wanna talk more about it!!!

#bnha #boku no hero academia #bnha headcanons #mha #my hero academia #mha headcanons #haikyuu fusion #sort of #rei rambles #rei writes #(sort of)#it was fun trying to parallel their quirks to their vball playing style haha

Mina Ashido and Jirou Kyoka for the character ask!!

YES OMG okay. Mina and I have the same birthday and also we are literally the same person. Irrelevant. But a fun fact. I love both of these ladies so much.

Mina!!!!

Favorite thing about them: I love her. That is my favorite thing. Jk. I feel like she’s just a very good friend. She’s dependable, strong (in battle and emotionally), she’s cheerful... you get the gist. I think she is just a friend magnet.

Least favorite thing about them: I kind of hate her quirk like 😳 girl that is not acid...

Favorite line: “I don’t know what you’re talking about!” It gave me very >:( vibes. I love baby.

brOTP: THE BAKUSQUAD!!! I cannot get enough of them together. If anyone ever has bakusquad content, send it to me or your toes are mine. I also like seeing her get along with the other girls and egg them on for gossip.

OTP: I’ve really been vibing with SeroMina and KiriMina recently. I also like Shinsou and Mina, Jirou and Mina, and Uraraka and Mina.

nOTP: DONT get it twisted - I LOVE ALL OF THE BACKGROUND CHARACTERS!!! But I just don’t see her being with someone who blends in easily like Ojiro. Their personality has to be as big as hers, even if not as bubbly- Sero’s personal brand of chill, Kirishima being a literally angel, and Shinsou’s permanent -_- attitude.

Random hc: Mina is super good at makeup. Also if she had normal skin, she’d be black. Don’t argue with me. Let me have this one.

Unpopular opinion: she doesn’t have a “secret dark side”???? Idk i saw that for a hot second and I literally was like :|. She’s just a happy person. Ppl need to let her be happy. She’s a queen let her vibe.

Song I associate with them: DO I SMELL ANOTHER PLAYYYYYLIIIIIST??? Yes. Anything on here. I think this is the one I did the best so... just saying (I have to take out the doja cat 😔 Mina doesn’t stan her anymore either). If I had to pick one song, though, I’d say either Daddy AF by Slayyyter or Oops!... I Did It Again. Idk I can just see her dancing to both of them lol.

Favorite picture of them: This. I’ve had this as my profile pics for various apps and I don’t regret it. Look at her little face. So cute. But I love all of them.

also cutting here, jirou underneath!

i just toked up again and switched to my computer from my phone so i guess this is a good time to finish up jirou’s.

favorite thing about them: jirou is absolutely on eof my favorite characters. i just absolutely love her whole vibe. like her clothes, her attitude, just her vibe. i think she’s really cool

least favorite thing about them: i need more jirou content! sure we just got fed with season four but... im greedy and impatient.

favorite line: “Shut up, old man!” literally give me the most jirou vibe EVER. its totally irrelevant and makes zero sense but its just so her.

brOTP: i literally love every time she interacts with the other girls. i just love all of my ladies having fun together. also the baku squad surprisingly (or not so much. ive seen this around). i think she’s really funny around the ‘dumber’ members of the class because she’s not afraid to nail on them for it lol.

OTP: MOMOJIROU. i literally LOVE M- i nfejkfberj i need to calm down i actually liveand breath for momojirou. like jeeeEEEZ. i also like kamijirou and a few other rarepairs, but momojirou absolutely takes the cake!

nOTP: again, i don’t really have one. i guess i can’t see her with someone like izuku or monoma.

random hc: she definitely likes women. like, period. i personally think she’s bisexual.

unpopular opinion: jirou’s quirk is super versatile and one of the coolest ones. like ngl, stretchy earlobe with headphones doesnt sound that cool. but she can THROW DARTS and BREAK CEMENT with her FUCKING EARS??? Damn. badass bitch.

song i associate with them: you already know i have a playlist for her. here it is. if i had to pick one song, it has to be on either the super heavy, rock side or the babie side of music. because im obsessed with both of them, i have to pick either The Way I Spoke by beabadoobee or Sun More Often by the same hoe. bea just gives me all around jirou vibes.

favorite picture of them: look at her. jirowo. its like 👉👈 but better.

Seriida HC #1

Sero, for some reason, every time he gets a crush he starts to fantasize about how his and his crush's quirks could work together, or combine. He knows it's dumb, like he's trying to sort of justify their union. And, by the way, he is deeply embarrased of this habit. When he first had that brief crush on Todoroki, he could imagine a smiling kid with some sort of fire rope coming out if his wrists, which was stupid considering they both were men.

When Sero finally realized he had a blooming crush on Iida, he couldn't find a single way to combine both quirks. Multiple tape dispensers? That wasn't cool, maybe for decorating parties but it wasn't cool. Maybe the kid would be a human stapler? Only hell knows how quirk-genetics work.

At first, Sero didn't mind having the crush. They came and went, he was sure it was going to fade sooner or later. Yet, he couldn't stop admiring Iida. There was an intensity when he talked, there was also so much determination that sometimes Sero found it difficult to look away.

The thing that Sero admired the most was Iida's will to work on himself, how hard Iida tried to become better version of himself, it was also amazing how much Iida was concerned about everyone. It wasn't just because he was the class president, but because he had promised to give his best to everyone. Everyday, Sero could see Iida giving his best to every person he encountered.

That's exactly why Sero knew he *had* to pursue Iida, he knew he had to get him or at least try. Plus, and this was only because Sero wasn't blind, Iida was hot AF.

When Sero started flirting with him, Iida didn't pay much attention to it. Aside from what most people would think, he did actually get Sero's pick-up lines and compliments, and Iida appreciated them, truly.

The problem was that he didn't actually know Sero, as a friend. Obviously they were classmates, but Iida had very basic knowlegde on what Sero liked or disliked, or who he was as a person. Sure as heck, he wasn't going to flirt with someone he didn't like first, it just wasn't who he was as a person.

The uptight image he had in front of his peers allowed him to get away with brushing off Sero's flirting without being harsh, because most people thought he hadn't realized what was happening. Uraraka mentioned a few times, but he just couldn't awknowledge Sero's feelings without knowing where exactly he stood.

What if they started to get to know each other and they ended up disliking each other? Or what if Sero started disliking Iida as Iida fell in love with him? He could not risk breaking Sero's heart nor his own.

It was a mystery why exactly Sero had a crush on him, though.

Truth be told, Sero was an interesting individual, and after several weeks of pondering it Iida decided that he was going to try and get to really know Sero.

Sero may have been forward with his flirting, but Iida was straight forward in life itself so he started inviting Sero to work with him on english class. Making conversation by talking about movies and music, sometimes food. Always simple stuff.

It wasn't until they had hero training that Iida finally had deep conversation with Sero. It was about hero stuff, a topict hey had never touched despite being almost everywhere in their lifes. Sero had told him, "I just want to be able to help people. No matter what." and that had striked such an impression on him because most of the time, the reasons to become a hero were a little less selfless. For money, for being the number one, for being famous, for getting girls, to find meaning, to prove everyone that you can be a hero, to be like someone you admire and so on.

That was the exact moment Iida decided that he wanted to flirt back, it was just a tiny moment in time but that had been definitely the last drop Iida needed to open his heart.

He had to recognize that Sero was really funny. Also very creative and precise, skills he needed to improve his quirk. Sero was....attentive and nice, always quick to help around, he was curious and intelligent, he was calm and sweet.

He was extremely cute when he started rambling after saying something he didn't intend to, he was very heroic every time he taped Mineta to the ceiling.

Iida would always be grateful that Sero had flirted first.

#seriida #sero hanta #bnha iida #mha iida #iida tenya #bnha sero #mha sero #look #i know no one asked #really #i love this ship #talk to me about it #please

Sero Week Day 1

@sero-week

Older Sero / Embarrassed

The Legend of DKFSTA

(posted on WST cuz I couldn’t wait on mine)

Disclaimer:

This Fic is trash—beautiful trash which I adore and would die for—but trash nonetheless. This fic has not been beta’d in any way, shape or form. Expect type-os, punctuation abnormalities, continuity issues and possible/probable OOC issues. At the end of this fic I will give you the template in order to play this dumb game. (it’s the same one I posted last night.)

Also, I was going to add reaction images but they were breaking up the story so I left ‘em out, if you want the reaction image version hit me up and I shall post it.

Anyway you guys have been warned lol rated T Word Count: 4.4k

Read it on Ao3

“I’m sorry this game is called what now?” Sero asked incredulously as he joined Mina, Momo, Jirou, Tooru, Uraraka and Tsu in common room. He agreed to join in on their collective sleepover for no other reason than to make sure certain “individuals” (one individual if we’re being honest) wouldn’t mess with them. However, the girls decided to sweeten the deal by promising to watch one of Sero’s favorite movies. It was kind of a guilty pleasure movie, so the offer was pretty appealing. And well look it may seem like a small thing but… the kid was a little lonely lately, and he was sure that this would be the one thing to cheer him up! Right?

Wrong.

What he would soon discover, was that there was a catch. Of course there was. Poor Sero… This is the tale of how he got dragged into playing the insidious game he would ever be cursed to participate in.

“I told you it’s called D-K-F-S-T-A.” Mina rolled her eyes

“That is not the name you used at all.” Sero said pointedly

“Well, whatever. Look it’s fun I promise.” Mina’s demonic like grin suggested that this game in particular was anything but fun.

“Mina, I love you, but your definition of “fun” is far different from others’.”

“He’s got a point.” Jirou said in a bored tone, “Although, I gotta admit the game is kind of fun. In a very dumb way. Unless you’re too chicken.”

“Are you trying to pull a me right now?” Ser asked, “I’ve done this enough times to Bakugou to know what you’re doing. But hell I don’t see the harm if you it’s alright...”

“SERIOUSLY?!” Mina screeched, “I’ve been your bestie since year one and you trust Jirou’s opinion over mine?!?!???”

“Mina.” Sero eyes locked onto hers, “Do me a favor and, think back to last week when you and Kaminari thought it would be fun to—

Mina put her hand over Sero’s mouth,“Ok-OK! Fair point! We don’t need to talk about that.”

Momo, Jirou, Uraraka, Tsu and Tooru all gave the two of them the most terrified glance. They sort of wanted to know what Sero was going to say but at the same time… they didn’t want to know. So they just left it at that, and hopefully the actual event was not as insane as what they were imaging, but knowing the meme queens...

“Alright fine, whatever so like how to I play this? Is it like MKF?” Sero’s eyes widened when all of the girls groaned at the same time.

“Why the hell didn’t we just play it like that!?” Tooru yelled

Uraraka face palmed, “That would have saved so much time.”

“Because it’s not as scientific that way!” exclaimed Mina

“Oh yes, because the ancient method of Mash is much more “scientifically accurate.” Jirou said complete with air quotes as Momo chuckled beside her.

“Scientifically accurate?” Sero asked.

“It determines your soulmate DUH, same as MASH, but you know better.” said Mina.

“Right…”

“This is too silly I’m going to bed, night guys.” Tsu said going to sleep for the night. Everyone wished her a good night and Sero wanting this to be over so they could just watch the dang movie already. He again picked his favorite guilty pleasure movie—a romantic comedy—what? He’s allowed to like ‘em jeez! Half the damned reason he agreed to this was because a) he knew he wouldn’t be judged and b) he wanted someone to watch it with him and this was the perfect place! Oh well, this game can’t take that long right?

“Okay, guys seriously? Just tell me how to play.”

“You got it my Office Supply Guy!” Mina beamed as Sero shook his head, “So here is how you play. You give me a list of 10 people you like as platonically ONLY. Then you give me a list of another 10 people but this time it’s people you find hot—or well: attractive, aesthetically pleasing and/or who you would hypothetically/potentially would want to date. Then, you give me 2 sets of numbers 1-10, then a set of 6 numbers in random order from 1-10.”

Sero was trying very, very hard not to laugh, this sounded fucking ridiculous, “Oh, is that all?”

Jirou smirked as Tooru, Uraraka and Momo stifled their giggles

“You guys—just come on okay? I’ve been trying to get the guys to play this but Kirishima knows better, Bakugou would never and Kaminari doesn’t have the attention span for it.”

“Mina. I barely have the attention span for this, so what am I supposed to do again? List 10 friends or whatever? Also wait what do you mean Kirishima knows better, cuz I’m not gonna lie that is more than mildly concerning.”

“Duh, Kirishima and I went to the same middle school, remember?! We all got bored and played it there all the time.” said Mina “But to answer your other question yeah, give me 10 people you aren’t attracted to.”

“Okay easy: You, Kaminari, Bakugou, Kirishima—

“Noooo you can’t put Bakugou and Kirishima on the same list.”

“What? Why?”

“Because they’re dating! You match up people in the first set you name with the second—trust me it’ll all be clear when we start.”

“Mina, none of this is clear, you do realize that, right??” Sero said feeling like his eyes were ready to roll out of their sockets

“In Mina’s defense it does make more sense as you play.” Uraraka smirked. See that should have been the first sign that something was wrong with this game. Uraraka never smirked, and if he were being honest… it was the most terrifying thing he’d ever seen.

Sero sighed and rubbed the back of his neck, “okay fine, so leave them off?”

“Or you put one on this list and the other one on the, people you wouldn’t mind dating list.”

“Or the ‘hotties list’ as she called it when we she made me play it.” Jirou rolled her eyes.

“Right, okay so my list of friends who I do not want to date take two: You, Kaminari, Jirou—”

“Ouch, me I get but you’re putting Jirou on the platonic list?”

Sero went red, “I—I don’t mean I don’t think Jirou’s unattractive I just—Jirou and I fist bump, I feel like once you’re in the fist bump zone that means you’re buddies for life and that’s kind of it and I—”

“Mina, can you stop torturing him?” Momo asked.

“Yeah, otherwise we’ll never get to the actual game and then no movie.” Jirou yelled in Sero’s defense, “No worries Sero, I feel exactly the same way.” Jirou fist bumped him in solidarity, besides she’s ashamed to admit it but she was pretty excited to see who Sero would be matched up with in the end.

“Okay. Fiiiiiiiine. So Sero on your first list you have: me, Kaminari, Jirou and you need 7 more people.

“Seven… right, uh…Tokoyami, Tetsutetsu… um… shit this is hard!”

“Right?!” Tooru squeaked, “It’s actually really hard to list all of these people! Oh but yeah you can totally list us under the friends list.”

Sero blushed, “Well… like what if I dunno I’ve had a crush or two on some of you—from like first year.”

“Oooooh who?!”

“Uraraka and Momo…”

Momo and Uraraka blushed, “Aw Sero!” Mina squealed.

Sero, realized he should have trusted his instincts. This insidious “game” was a trap. “H-heh, so okay how many more people do you need?” look into editing

“Well, let’s see, we have you—

“What? I didn’t list myself.”

“Yeah, I listed you—MASH rules the host can add one person to each list—now shush. You have listed: You, Me, Kaminari, Jirou, Tokoyami, Tetsutetsu. Great! Four more to go!”

“Tooru, Uhhhh… Oh! Camie, Inasa, and Shinsou! Done.”

“With the first list you are, and aww I’m glad you and Shinsou are friends! I feel badly that he didn’t get moved up to the Hero class sooner.”

“Yeah me too he’s a really great guy, and wait I gotta do the same thing in the other list?”

“Yep! So if you would please list of the people you could potentially see yourself being with, and/or you find cute.”

“Aw Jeez, what is this the most complicated game known to man?” Sero said exasperated AF, “Fine. But Mina? I’m giving you this list once and only once and if you miss somebody then that’s your fault and you have to fill in the damn gap.”

“Ok, ok, I got it… go!”

“Uhhhhh, ok, Momo, Kendou, Uraraka, Iida, Shouji, Ojiro, Awase, Shindou, and um… um. N-Natsuo?”

“Natsuo… as in Todoroki’s older brother?”

“Yeah, I mean, I guess? I mean he’s pretty cute, and I’m running out of people to name.”

“He’s four years older!”

“Again, you said people I thought were cute! He’s cute it totally counts! I’m not saying I’m gonna jump his bones or anything! Anyway, that’s ten right?”

“Nope that’s nine but since you choose a slightly older Todoroki, I am putting our Todoroki.”

“Y-You can’t do that.”

“Oooooh yes I can and I am.”

“Fine, I change those last two, to um—um…”

“Nope, no take backs and you took way too long on the friends list, this is the list of hotties you are stuck with.” Mina gave a mock innocent smile

“You’re only freaking out about it because you have to deal with Todoroki being on the list.” said Jirou struggling to hold back a laugh

“And the only reason he only put Natsuo on because it’s safer option.” Momo said coyly, “ You chose him because it means you wouldn’t have to say Shouto.”

Sero went red, “What does that have to do with anything?”

“That you like him… a lot” Uraraka chirped

“I do not. I mean yeah we’re friends, just friends.”

“Mhmm… sure.” Tooru laughed

“You guuuuuys!”

“Seroooo!”

“Ugh, sure whatever you say can we just finish the stupid game? Random numbers?”

“Yep 10 random numbers 1-10 2x plus 6 random numbers 1-10” Mina clicked her pen a couple of times and Sero rolled his eyes for probably the umpteenth million time during this dumb game and spouted out numbers. What the actual fuck had he been thinking when he agreed to this shit?

“Alright! Now we can start!” Mina squealed with glee, “So here’s what’s going on, the first two number sequences you gave me? Well, they match up to names on either of the two lists. So I’m going to give you two names aaaaaand you’re going to tell me if you’d think they’d be a good couple or not.”

Sero blinked, “What?”

“Sero, you’re not a dumb guy, stop acting like it. Okay, you for example got paired up with oooooh Shouji.”

“I’m going to say this again. What?”

“So your name was first on the friends list, and when you gave me the list of 10 numbers you said the number 2 first. That effectively gave you the number 2 and on the other list, you named Shouji fifth but in the number sequence you said the number 2 fifth. Hence you getting paired with Shouji. So now I’m going to give you couples based on number matches and lol you’re going to tell me if you think they’d be a cute couple or not, and I record your answer as yes or no.”

“Okay, I suppose that makes sense… so what the fuck does D-K-F-S-T-A stand for.” Sero filled with dread the likes of which he had never felt before, When Mina answered. “Oh that, heh you’ll see.”

Sero swallowed hard, “O-Okay?”

“Great, so do you see you and Shouji together?”

Sero did not miss the fact that they were all silently laughing at his misery, he also didn’t miss that he was going to have a fun time explaining all of his answers, “Yes…”

“Oh my god I knew it.” Tooru squealed

Sero groaned, “He’s a nice guy okay?!”

“Right and kissing him during truth or dare last month has nothing to do with it?” Jirou playfully punched his arm.

“Sh-Shut up Jirou! Unless you want me to pull out some receipts on all of you.”

“Fair enough.”

“Ok, ok next, oh oh wow lol nope,” Mina laughed.

“What?”

“Me and Ojiro.”

“Oh, definitely not, Ojiro deserves better.”

“HEY!”

The room burst out in fits of giggles.

“Kaminari and Iida.”

“Huh, yeah kinda—wait actually nope, def not. They get along super well and I love both of them a lot but I feel like they’d be missing chemistry?”

“Oh same,” said Ochako.

“Right?” said Sero

Mina wanted to get to the “good” part of the game so she interrupted, “Jirou and HA! Natsuo.”

Before Jirou could even open her mouth Sero said “No. I didn’t realize it was gonna be like this, you guys were right he’s way too old.”

“Not old enough for you to have a semi crush on him.” Jirou smirked

“No, that’s Todoroki Shouto you’re thinking of.” Momo giggled

“Would you guys shut up about that? Look okay yes, I’ve stayed over at his house a couple of times and yes—”

Mina’s widened in shock “He let you stay at his house?!”

“Well uh—yeah when his dad’s not home. Listen remember during our last break? My parents got the dates all mixed up, and they were out of the country. I was just gonna stay at the UA dorms but Endeavor was on a mission in Osaka and Todoroki insisted I come home with him. Natsuo and Fuyumi are really nice, I actually owe them my weight’s worth in grocery money for sure but they wouldn’t let me pay for anything. So—why are you all looking at me like that?”

“Oh nothing” Momo smiled oh-not-so-innocently

“Absolutely Nothing.” Jirou shrugged her shoulders

“Not a thing.” Uraraka said her hand propping up her chin in mock contemplation.

“Nothing at all.” Tooru hummed

Mina didn’t care about subtlety and just plunged in, “So... you’re like sure there’s nothing going on with you and Todoroki?”

“Is this seriously what we’re going to be talking about the whole night?” Sero said desperately trying to calm himself down to rid his cheeks of the epic blush that was currently decorating his face.

“Depends, when you uh stayed over at his place… did you guys sleep in his room?”

Sero opened his mouth to offer some sort of a response but his words died before they could reach his lips. He instantly made a tight lipped smile and refused to look at any of them.

“OH MY GOD!”

“It wasn’t like that!”

“Honestly Sero, you are hopeless.” Mina shook her head, “Okay, Tooru and Kendou.”

“No, not really, you guys don’t talk enough.”

“Yeah that’s fair.” Tooru yawned in agreement, “Aw man... guys I hate to tap out early but I’m exhausted, pleeeeease you have to tell me how this ends.”

“Oh you know it girl, sweet dreams!”

They all wished Tooru good night which luckily let Sero have enough time to collect himself for the next onslaught of questions. He thought he was prepared, he thought it must be close to finishing right? He could do this… well that’s what he thought before he heard Mina cackle.

“Oh god who with who” Sero dreaded asking.

“Tokoyami and Uraraka.”

Everyone cracked up at that because well no matter who Uraraka ended up with, unless it was with Midoriya it was gonna be a no (and the boy wasn’t even listed).

“Lol nope, she has eyes for only one person on this earth.”

“Sh-Shut up!”

“Oooooh ok, I see, so it’s okay to humiliate me, but not you.”

“Well duh I’m not the one playing the game.”

“Yeah well—

“Sero stop arguing with Uraraka, the faster we get through this the faster we can—Oh My God,” Mina struggled to keep a straight face, “Shinsou and Shindou.”

Everyone cackled, and admitted to himself internally that maybe this game wasn’t that bad.

“You know what? Weirdly enough, I kinda see it. If only for the reason that Shinsou wouldn’t let that smug good looking asshole get away with shit.”

“You do realize you and Shindou kinda look alike,” Momo offered.

“No we don’t?”

“You kinda do though,” said Jirou.

“We do not, what drugs are you all taking?”

“We aren’t on drugs, you guys do look a little alike and It’s not a bad thing.” Ochako chimed in.

“I’m aware, he’s nice looking, but I mean we don’t.”

“Sero…” Mina for the first time that night gave him a soft look.

“What?”

“We know why you’re saying that, you’re good looking!”

“I’m fine looking.”

“Sero.”

“Moving on please.”

“Ugh fine, oh! Camie and Momo!”

“Awwww, that would be kind of adorable.”

“She is pretty…” Momo sighed wistfully

“You know I could set something up, right?” said Sero

“No no! That’s okay!”

“You sure?”

“I could set you up with Todoroki,” Momo countered.

“We room next to each other so like lol if that were ever to become a thing, which it won’t. I swear I’m a big boy, I’m more than capable to do it on my own.”

“Yes, because you’re so good at telling someone you like them,” said Jirou.

“You know what Jirou? Those who live in glass houses…” He gave her a pointed look causing her to mutter some choice insult phrases Sero’s way.

“Moving on,” Mina hastily smoothed over, “Oh! Inasa and Todoroki.”

“Yeah I can see it heh,” Sero shrugged, “considering they dated for a bit this summer.”

“What?!”

“Yeah, they like had a lot of fun and like I-I dunno they kept trying to make it work and it was really hard though... because of the distance. But yeah like yeah they were a thing, I think they ended it for good but I don't know...” Sero shrugged, "I'm pretty sure Todoroki, Bakugou, and Kirishima were supposed to meet up with Inasa tonight, maybe Camie too. They might get back together, and like that would be nice..."

“Oh Sero…”

“Why are you “Oh Sero-ing” me? They make each other happy, plus it’s not like I have a stake in this.”

“Sero, it’s okay you can admit you like him, who are we going to tell?” Momo asked gently placing her hand on his back. Sero couldn’t look at her so he just responded with, “He’s my friend. How many times do I have to say that? Of course I like him, but like just as a friend. I didn’t put him on the other list you guys did, anyway...” The girls gave him a look but Sero gave them his winning smile, “who is next in this crazy game or is that it?”

“Alright…” Mina hesitated, wanting so very desperately to make sure Sero was okay. Yeah they messed with each other a lot but Sero was family to her… but the boy was stubborn as hell so she just moved forward. “Okay! Oh god! Satou and Awase!”

“LOL nope. They’d like run out of things to talk about in 5 minutes or less, so is that it?”

“No! Now, we get to the really fun part.”

“The really fun part? Oh hell, the fuck is “the fun part.””

“Yup give me 6 random numbers 1-10.”

“Mina, you totally made this game up.”

“I DID NOT! You can ask Kirishima!! I swear! We played this in middle school all the time!!!”

“What hell dimension did you guys go to middle school???”

“Oh just come on!!! You’re taking forever!”

“Because you keep talking!”

“This is ridiculous,” said Momo, “Give me the notebook Mina I’ll do it from here.”

“Oh good idea he’ll answer you without a fuss.”

“I’m not making a fuss!”

“Kinda are.”

Sero rolled his eyes and gave the random numbers to Momo, “Ok what do I need to do now?”

“Answers these honestly AND you have to explain your answer.”

“O-Okay?”

“Would you date Ojiro?”

“No, I mean he’s awesome but… it’s just… I know he has a crush on someone else and it would feel really weird if I went in there and asked him out. Like it just seems very inconsiderate and like… you know why bother asking a friend you know isn’t into you out? It will just wreck the friendship, and yeah, like who wants that, you know?”

There was a collective aw from all of the girls and Ochako reached out for Sero’s hand, “Are you sure you don’t want to talk about feelings you may or may not have for someone?”

Sero sighed, “I appreciate your attempt at ambiguity Uraraka, but um, lol yeah we’re not going there, because there are only so many times I can tell you all he’s just a friend without taping you all to the ceiling.”

“Okay would you kiss...” Momo blinked before continuing. “Oh me!”

“I would.” Sero smiled and kissed Momo on the cheek.

Momo giggled, “Aw shucks Sero.”

He snorted, “Never say that again.”

“Yeah I regretted it the instant I said it, thank you for the kiss.” She playfully shoved his shoulder with his.

“Oh anytime lol.”

“Okay would you go to First Base with Natsuo.”

Sero’s eyes bugged out of his skull, “Nooooo. DEAR GOD NO! Like you guys said he’s like 4 years older! AND I DIDN’T REALIZE IT WAS GONNA BE LIKE THIS!!!”

“Right well, now you know for next time.”

“What makes you think I’m ever playing this stupid game ever again?”

“Because it’s ridiculous, it’s fun, and again it will determine your soulmate!" Mina said in a sing-songy tone, "Now. Would you go to second base with Awase.”

Sero went pale as a sheet, looked away and mumbled out his answer.

“I’m sorry, what was that?”

“I said… w-well, since it’s already happened I guess I gotta say yes.” Sero rubbed the back of his neck

“I’m so sorry, what?!?!!!?” They collectively screeched

“Uh. Details. Now. When the heck did this happen?!?!?!!!” Jirou demanded

"Ugh, ok... so... remember that time we had training with 2-b last trimester? The one off campus? We had that party? Awase and I got matched up for seven minutes in heaven and like neither of us had really kissed someone with tongue before… So like yeah we um started kissing and um then… u-um well... like we progressed to um making out and it was n-nice.” Sero swallowed hard, “And OK SURE maybe we got a little carried away in the moment—but like!!! IT WAS ONLY THAT LIKE ONE TIME AND NOTHING HAPPENED WE JUST MADE OUT and had somewanderinghands BUT NOTHING BELOW THE BELT!!!”

“OH MY GOD HOW HAVE YOU NEVER TOLD US THIS BEFORE?!”

“WELL YOU WERE AT THE PARTY!!!”

“Oh my god this makes so much sense now, you looked like a rumpled mess. Did you guys ever try dating after?” Momo pressed.

“W-we might have made out a couple more times, but that was it. There was kind of no romantic feels there, as much as I wanted there to be then I could have just moved on from–”

“From?” asked Jirou.

“Nothing, no one, it doesn’t matter. Next question?”

“Would you go to Third with HA omfg Shindou.”

“Well for one, ew no. You guys said he looks like me and I can’t ever unsee that and it’s so weird to think about now. And two, he is much of an asshole as he is amazing to look at, absolutely not. Can you imagine? He’d allude it to everyone anyway. Not say it outright because you know “his image™.”

“Oh god what a nightmare yeah, besides he doesn’t deserve you.”

“Awwwwwww Mina, that’s the nicest thing you’ve ever said to me.”

“IT IS NOT I’VE SAID PLENTY OF NICE THINGS TO YOU IN THE PAST.”

“Uh-huh after you’re done torturing me that is.”

Mina gaped at him like he’d just slapped her, “RUDE.”

“Okay Sero, last one.” Momo laughed and then her eyes widened, “Oh my god. Okay just know that I did not do this on purpose. This is actually just who you got.”

“O...kay?”

“Would you go all the way with Todoroki?”

“Wh-what?”

“Would you–

Sero blinked, and interrupted, “No, I’m not answering that. There is no right answer for that. If I say no, you’re going to say I’m in denial or some bullshit.”

“You are totally in denial,” said Mina.

Sero glared, at Mina before sighing, “And if I give you my logical answer, you’re gonna make a big deal out of it and I’d rather not do this. It’s–look can we just pretend that like I said whatever you want me to say and we can move onto the movie or something?”

“But after you finish this one then we calculate your “soulmate”, with you know science.” Jirou smiled

“Right. Science. Weren’t you the one to point out how BS this concept of “MASH science” is?”

“Well yeah but this is the last one and like we don’t mean to actually bother you about this.”

“Aw yeah, come on Sero, we promise we won’t make this into a big deal. Besides it’s not fun to poke fun if you’re not actually having fun ya know?” Mina gave a very OVER enthusiastic grin, which melted Sero’s misgivings

“Oh alright.” He took in a deep breath, and rubbed the back of his neck. “Hypothetically? I would–hypothetically–b-because we’re friends and I know he wouldn’t laugh at me, or make me feel more self conscious than I already am. And that yeah, it would be awkward as hell, and sure it would be ridiculous, but it would be like nice? I don’t know, I just trust him, and I think if hypothetically we would do that… then like it would maybe even be fun? Or… I don’t know I just can’t really see even saying yes to anyone but him...” When he looked up he saw the girls’ mouths gaping, and he instantly looked away completely missing the girls’ waving and signaling for him to STOP.

“I-It like wouldn’t be weird I guess? Again, like I trust him and I-I dunno. I just think going all the way with Todoroki would feel natural instead of… terrifying ya know? And--”

Finally Mina screeched, “HI TODOROKI HOW’RE YOU DOING?!”

Everyone went completely still as Sero turned around with a breakneck speed only to see that Todoroki was not in fact out with Kirishima, Bakugou, Camie and Inasa. He was instead, standing right behind him looking pretty bewildered slapped across his face. All that could be heard next was Sero softly uttering, “o-oh fuck.”

Someone adopt Todoroki already

Let's talk about everyone's favourite BnHA prince, Todoroki Shouto, and his parental figures. This kid is some weird cross between Haikyuu's Kageyama and the Last Airbender's Zuko, in that he's a socially awkward pretty boy with a dark past and some very serious daddy issues. This kid has seen some shit, my dudes. And like those two he gets a rather satisfying, still ongoing character arc, making him one of those characters you can’t help but root for. You know what else Todoroki is? A walking symbolism manual.

Todoroki's parental figures

So BnHA is very interesting in the way it deals with parents. As opposed to most manga, they don't just all die or disappear into the background here. This series has some of the warmest mother-son relationships (hello Midoriya Inko), and it's also chock full of father figures (Dad Might, Dadzawa, Dad Torino). People like Midoriya and Bakugou, and Kirishima in the manga, get several of these mentors to help them on their way.

Todoroki, on the other hand, gets surprisingly few. He doesn't have the same relationship with Aizawa or All Might that Midoriya and Bakugou have, and he doesn't even get a separate mentor during his apprenticeship, because he chooses to spend that time with his own father. In a way, this makes a lot of sense. Whereas Midoriya gets outside guidance to grow, Todoroki's character development is very much an internal struggle. It is central to Todoroki's character arc that he learns how to deal with the parents he already has.

Putting this under a cut because it’s super long, and it ventures a little into manga territory (i tried to keep the spoilers mild).

Fire and Ice

I don't think I'm going to shock people when I mention that Endeavour, Todoroki Senior, is a bit of a dick. The man has many flaws as a father and a human being. He's abusive, for one. He is shown as proud, calculated, ruthless, selfish. He wants to mould his child with the very specific purpose of defeating his own greatest rival and he's willing to disregard the lives and feelings of others (like his wife) to make this happen. Now what may shock you is that honestly, I don't believe Endeavour is a purposely cruel person. You can't really save that many people if you're a full sadist. He appears to actually want a relationship with his son, or at the very least, he wants his son to look up to him. He doesn't seem to understand that holy shit, bro, you frigging traumatised that boy.

I feel that the way he's treated his kid, and his wife, is mostly him having a one track mind and going overboard. I'm not trying to redeem him here, but there are levels of evil and Endeavour for me falls into the 'drunk in a wife-beater' category. Putting aside the question of whether Dabi is also a Todoroki sibling, it does seem like not all his kids hate him, for instance. Shouto's sister Fuyumi seems pretty ok living in that house still. As a school teacher, she is an adult woman with an income who could be living alone. The fact that she stays in that house could mean she's there to take care of her younger siblings, or that she at least has a casual enough relationship with her (rich AF) dad that staying is preferable to making it on her own. Honestly, he probably just lowkey ignored his other kids for most of their childhood, or at least let them have a normal life. As such, it's mostly just Todoroki's bad luck that he was born as a 'perfect sample'. Endeavour strikes me as someone who is very full of himself and it causes him to look at other human beings as a means to an end.

On the other side of the scale is Mrs. Todoroki. Like Izuku's mother, she is framed first and foremost as someone who loves, someone who cares, someone selfless. But unlike Inko, her selflessness is pushed to a point where she can't take it anymore. This is a woman who has lost any and all agency. She is trapped in a loveless marriage she did not want and she doesn't even seem to have a name of her own. She is just 'Mrs. Todoroki', a plaything to be used and disposed of by a powerful man. The pain and fear she absorbs during the years is too great and she snaps, hurting the ones she loves the most. She is then quickly carted off and locked away somewhere out of view.

Appearances

So how has this whole business shaped Todoroki? For one: he doesn't give a damn about appearances. BnHA is very big on the difference between what you look like, and what you are. For a blatant example, check out the 'two forms' of All Might. Appearances are important for a hero, but Todoroki knows that this could be bullshit. Endeavour is the 'number two' hero. He is looked up to as a great and powerful man by the general populace, but it seems to be a bit of an open secret (judging by Present Mic's reaction at the Sports Festival) that he's a grade A jerk. On the other hand 'Mrs Todoroki' is known as a violent woman. Someone crazy. Someone dangerous. Someone that has to be hidden away in a hospital, never to see the light of day. In both these cases Todoroki knows better. He doesn't particularly look at the outside. He doesn't even judge people on what they say, but on what they do.

On a much more symbolic level, this is even the case for the whole 'element' business. I personally love how the reality of Todo's fire and ice, and of his parents elements, doesn't correspond to their official 'element'. Fire is supposed to be warm. The 'hearth' is the traditional centre of the family, whereas ice evokes the cold, lonely wilderness. But when it comes to parental love, Todoroki's mom's is the warm one. Her loves is even so hot that it when it goes out of control, it literally burns his skin. On the other hand, his father's love is a cold one. To his father, Todoroki is a product, a pawn in the race for Number One. It is an attitude that causes Todoroki to reject any sentimental ties he has to his father, almost literally turning the boy into a block of ice, since that's the only skill he's willing to use.

Walking. Symbolism. Manual.

Dual personality

But as the manga mentions, Todoroki is the perfect genetic mix of both his parents, whether he wants it or not. He is the 'half and half bastard' and step one in his development is actually becoming that. When we first meet Todoroki, he has a cold personality and he quite literally only uses ice, in apparent defiance of his father. This is his Ice Side. It is calculated, it is sharp, it is dismissive of others and it is ambitious. This is the kid that wants to win the tournament on half strength. It is the kid that challenges Midoriya as an 'opponent-to-beat'. It is, against all rebellious tendencies, the personality of his father.

Now let's look at his Fire Side. Remember when we first saw that? It's not the moment you're thinking of. It's this one

Todoroki's fire side is passion, it is anger, it is explosive and full of feelings. It is the side that cares, and cares so much that sometimes it explodes and threatens to hurt people (like poor Sero). Oddly enough, Todoroki's Fire Side comes much closer to his mother's personality.

Don’t believe me?

Todoroki's mom with a whistling kettle in the background.

Todoroki right before he freezes the hell out of Sero.

Achievement: Fire

Enter Midoriya, our superhero with an extra in 'unlocking character development'. What our boy does, in the tournament, is set Todoroki's fire side free from several years of suppression, obviously. He does this by making him forget about his father and get more in touch with his mother.

For just that moment, Todoroki switched sides, willingly.

And you see that from then on, he starts to flip between both sides more regularly. In his fight with Bakugou he's still sputtering, but honestly, boy just had a revelation, you can't expect him to be up to speed that fast. But you do see it more often later on.

We see Todoroki slowly warm up to his classmates, particularly to Iida and Midoriya. We see him start to visit his mother, because he's quite literally nurturing that side of him.You see him give very sensitive advice and lose his cool (heh) another time, like in the superhero exam. We see him remain his calm and calculated self all through that Bakugou rescue mission.

Back to dad

An interesting point in the story here, is the apprenticeship. Todoroki chooses to go to his father here. This is a calculated decision and he even mentions that in the anime. His father is a popular hero and it gives him good opportunities to work with the 'number two', despite whatever his feelings for this man may be. That's his ice side speaking (his father's side, if you follow my theory).

Now look what happens when Midoriya needs help.

Instant dismissal.

Todoroki knows what he cares about, and it is the continued well-being of Midoriya. The switch is almost instantly flipped. Forget his father, go save his friend. His mother's side is slowly but surely gaining.

Balance

Right now, you see a lot of duality in everything Todoroki does. This boy, despite unlocking both sides of himself, is still very much struggling. He can still come across as aloof in unfortunate situations. And let's not forget that his explosive side is just that. Explosive. If he doesn't learn to reign that in, he, too, could cause hurt to others. What Todoroki needs, more than anything, is to balance these sides of himself. The right brain and the left brain. Hot and cold, doing and feeling, Ice and Fire. Right now, he's almost split himself in half, showing one side now and another side the next. I'm not sure if all that switching is altogether healthy, but at least it's better than what he did before when he was literally suppressing entire parts of himself. It's progress. I'm hoping that he'll get past this stage also. It's slow going, but honestly? I get that. Kid's seen some shit.

PS: I have a bunch of these BnHA meta things.

Free! Characters x BNHA Quirks

So I thought of Free! Characters with quirks. Here they are!

(also “worst enemy” means the hardest one for them to battle against)

Haru- obviously a quirk to do with water, but its something like waterbending, like maybe if a drop of water touches him (or if he sweaty af lol) he can multiply it to a lot more and waterbend? I say waterbending not only because of the water, but it suits Haru well. Haru, despite being non verbal, seems to have a very vivid and intelligent mind. Not Rei or Iida smart, but very analyzing and more wise and deep and observant. So a mental quirk suits him. (Main attack: he will surround himself with a floating river of pirahnnas or launch it at the enemy. This is bad with electricity quirks, but fire quirks are effective) (Worst enemy- Rin, Kaminari, tsuyu or Todoroki. also, Despite quirks and all, haru and todo would get along well probs lol)

Makoto- seeds, as in he can throw any seed and he can grow it SUPER fast (kinda like vine girl) and he can manipulate the plant (as long as its in eye sight, so enemies usually block his vision to the plant). However, unless its a situation like the sports festival, he often uses it for good use (or if hes hungry and has strawberry seeds lol) and sometimes helps local farmers. (Bonus he can also heal plants) (Worst enemy- Ibara Shiozaki aka vine girl or sero)

Nagisa- since nagisa seems to understand emotion well, empathy. He can pass his emotions, some memories if theyre clear enough or emotions from memories onto people, or he can read theirs or feel theirs. He can only read thoughts after the thought is complete. This is very effective in battle, as, unlike shinsous quirk, he just has to touch you for you to be effected by his quirk. In battle, he can pass on traumatizing memories he’s received (every memory he reads or gets passed to him is stored in his brain) and highly distress the enemy. He can also predict attacks. (Worst enemy- would probably be shinsou if he fell for his quirk, aizawa, midnight or monoma and possibly toga? generally anyone with quirk manipulating or stealing quirks but also nezu since he may have the mental capacity to know how to keep his mind blank or free from his quirk and nitori)

Rei- Rei’s quirk would be something with gravity. He, if its within a 100 ft vicinity, can manipulate the amount of gravity of objects or people around him. He could steal the gravity, as in steal an enemy’s gravity that can weigh him down and make them float uncontrollably until returned, or the opposite, making him able to float or jump easier, with control, and weigh down the enemy in place. He can also make a gravity forcefield, meaning that in this forcefield, he is the only one with normal gravity. When he didn’t know the full extent of his quirk as a child, he used to feel insecure, as he thought he could only manipulate his own gravity, thus being bullied and feeling as if he had to achieve more to be special (aka being the best in school) however, when nagisa heard, he told mako, haru and rin (they went to the same school at the time till rin left in sixth to pursue his quirk) and they helped him develop it and helped him with his esteem so now, he takes pride when people underestimate his quirk and he can prove em’ wrong. (worst enemy- uraraka or 13)

Rin- like bakugou, he’d have an aggressive and flashy quirk that also goes with his appearance, so a shark quirk. Not full shark, but he could turn part shark in water, like fins and gills. Rin can breathe underwater and has shark teeth. Underwater, he can swim fast. He also has enhanced strength. On land, maybe he can grow fins on his arms that can sharpen and slice tf outta you? He can also talk to water creatures. (Worst enemy- Nitori, if he used his quirk on the sea floor, Haru, Tsuyu and Kirishima)

Nitori- Earth shatter. He is the child of Mic and Eraser (lets just say theres a person with a quirk that let them have a biological kid..?) and what he can do is he can scream so loud that an earthquake happens (range depends on how loud he is, sometimes its just the building he’s in, the loudest has been all of tokyo once on a trip) , and if you have a mental quirk, it can nullify your quirk since it affects your brain. He’s underestimated a LOT, since people see him and go “don’t even tell me this quiet child has a strong quirk like that” but then they battle and theyre so wrong is what they realize. He found out his quirk from when a little momotarou waved a cockroach in front of his face and since he didnt know his quirk yet, he screamed so loud that almost a 7.1 quake happened (from then, eraser and mic had to tell everyone that they left nitori’s care in to not startle him or make him scream, since even a yelp can take down a small building, or eraser would nullify his quirk whenever he’d go with a friend till he came back) and since then, nitori always makes sure that he’s calm, or else catastrophy, man. Also whenever he was younger and he was in trouble and aizawa wasn’t home, he’d scream like “aaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA” when he was gonna be in trouble until eraser got home and was like “Ai, no quirk for a week!” and he’d take his quirk for a week lol. (worst enemy- kyouka, momo, kirishima (kiri and momo could withstand it to a certain level) nagisa)

Momotarou- mirage- he can make himself invisible (or mimic the image of someone if theres enough) in sun rays or rays of light hitting him, however, unless its a sunray or moonlight, he must be within 100ft of the light source. At night, contrary to most thought, his quirk is strongest, since any light is most prominent. And if its just sun lets say, just hitting his hand, only whats in the ray is affected. In the day, it must be a direct ray. To be back to normal, he must look the directly at the light source. If he wants ruckus, he’ll turn invisible then make himself visible to nitori to make him scream. Also sometimes he will sneak into a persons dorm and spy lol. (worst enemy- toga, dabi and tokoyami)

Nitori, taking shirt off and humming: hhm hm hmmm~ finally-

*book falls*

Nitori: MOMO!!!!!!! *small earthquake starts happening*

Momo, appearing in front of window with sunlight peering through, now jumping out the window: Gotta go lmao *runs*

Sousuke- stone. He can touch something, and anything that object touches within eye sight turns to stone. He can even turn himself to stone sometimes, if he touches pure stone. He can also absorb it for strength. Sousuke can also kinetically control stone, as he can make it grow around stuff similar to moss. People are terrified of his quirk (Rin gets the hots from it tbh) since he almost turned his teacher (aizawa) to stone. At a young age, he could only turn small things to stone, as he used to do this a lot with his toys. A benefit is if he turns a limb to stone and it broke off, he could regrow it. With his quirk, he learned how to take a rock and multiply it. His quirk also can have a magnetic like affect to rocks underground if they are loose enough (worst enemy- kirishima, bakugou, deku, momo, kyouka, mina, haru, nitori, shigaraki, mina)
