A Long Overdue Discussion

This drabble takes place after this one, so I recommend reading that first for this to completely make sense. After getting asked about this particular topic, I decided to write out the conversation that happens after the matches. There are slight spoilers to the manga like in the previous drabble which is why I tagged it as such.

I hope y’all enjoy it! ^-^

It’s after the party following the Class 1-A vs Class 1-B matches is in full swing that you remember the vision you had early this morning about the Midoriya and Monoma confrontation that occurred during their match.

During the match, Monoma, who had obviously copied Shinsou’s Quirk, was trying to get Midoriya to respond by taunting him. While it made sense why he went that route, you were still blown away by what the blond had said.

Rather than try to anger Midoriya by insulting him or his friends, Monoma brought up the summer camp incident and actually blamed the green haired boy and Bakugou for your kidnapping. Since he knew Bakugou was the villain’s original target, the copycat thought it was the other blond’s fault for you getting taken instead of him.

In regards to him blaming Midoriya, it was because the green haired boy was there at the time of your kidnapping. As far as Monoma was concerned, Midoriya was also responsible for your kidnapping since he failed to protect you.

Naturally, you were beyond shocked by Monoma’s words. You had no idea that he had felt that way. 

The worst part of it was that Midoriya hadn’t been surprised by his opponent’s words. No, his expression made you believe he had heard them before.

That’s why, after you had warned your student about what was supposed to happen with his Quirk during the match, you asked him how Monoma had reacted to your kidnapping all those months ago. From him, you learned that after Monoma heard what happened to you he lost his cool and immediately started pinning the blame on the students who were there when you were taken, Bakugou especially.

Midoriya never held a grudge against the copycat despite all the cruel words he said that night because he knew Monoma was hurting just as much as he was. Just from looking at the 1-B student, the green haired boy could tell he was blaming himself just as much as he was blaming Bakugou and the others.

Hearing those words felt like getting punched straight in the gut. You can’t believe you were so blind. 

Foolishly, you had assumed that the 1-B students hadn’t been too adversely affected by your kidnapping. Sure, you knew they had been hurt by it, but you hadn’t expected any of them to be dealing with guilt like the 1-A students who were there when you got taken. 

You can’t believe you made the same mistake with Monoma as you did with Bakugou. Because you assumed the copycat was fine, he was forced to deal with that guilt all on his own.

That’s why you can’t even bring yourself to feel mad at Monoma for saying such cruel things to Midoriya because you’re too consumed with guilt. How could you have allowed this to go on for so long? How much has the copycat suffered as a result of your negligence? 

Of course, now that you know the full situation, you have every intention to talk to Monoma about it. As a result, you look for an opportunity to talk to him alone during the party, wanting to address this matter as soon as possible.

An opportunity presents itself when you remember the food bowls for the cats that like to visit the dorm need to be refilled. Monoma is surprisingly very eager to lend a hand, making you wonder if he’s a cat person too. 

It’s after you both finish refilling the food and water bowls that you reveal the real reason you wanted him to come outside with you. “I actually had another reason for asking you to help me, Monoma. I was hoping I could talk with you about a vision I had this morning that involved you.”

Because of the poor lighting outside, you miss the way his cheeks grow red at your words. “You had a vision about me?”

Taking in his wide eyed expression, you figure he must be surprised since it’s not often you have visions involving Class 1-B. “Yeah, it was about the matches today. To be more specific, I saw you up against Midoriya, and you were trying to use Shinsou’s Quirk on him by taunting him.”

Realization dawns his features as his expression turns horrified. “So, you heard everything I said to him?”

You nod your head. “I heard you blame him and Bakugou for what happened at the summer camp. You told him that it was their fault I got kidnapped.”

Monoma immediately averts his gaze as his right hand moves to clutch his left arm. “I…”

Your expression softens. “Monoma, I didn’t bring you out here to scold you. I’m not mad at you for what you said.”

His wide eyes quickly move to meet yours. “You’re not?”

Shaking your head, you reply, “No, rather than feel anger, all I felt was guilt especially after I asked Midoriya how you reacted to my kidnapping. He said to him it looked like you were blaming yourself just as much as you were blaming him.”

Holding his gaze, you ask, “Have you been been feeling guilty about what happened all this time, Monoma? Did you think you were somehow responsible for what happened to me that night?”

For several seconds, Monoma just stares, completely frozen, before eventually ducking his head so he won’t have to meet your gaze. “Yes. I….I did blame myself. Even though I was angry at the students who failed to stop your kidnapping, I was even more furious at myself for doing nothing to help you.”

After a brief pause, he continues, “After you brought Kouta-kun to camp, I wanted to go outside to help you since I was worried about you staying outside on your own. However, Vlad-sensei wouldn’t allow any of us to leave the building. After later hearing about your kidnapping, I began to regret not finding a way past Vlad-sensei. I started to wonder if things would’ve been different if I had gone to help you.”

A sharp pang resounds in your chest when you hear the obvious pain in his voice. “Monoma, you didn’t do anything wrong. Vlad-san was right to keep you all indoors where it was safe. In that situation, the safety of you students was most important. That’s why I ran off because I didn’t want Bakugou and Tokoyami to end up in the villains’ hands.”

When you gently place your hands on his shoulders, the startled student’s head immediately jerks up, causing his gaze to meet yours. “You were not to blame for what happened, Monoma, and neither are Bakugou, Midoriya, or any of the other students that were there when I got kidnapped. They did everything they could to save me. I got kidnapped because I willingly put myself in a dangerous position because I was willing to do anything to save my students.”

You give his shoulders a strong squeeze. “So, please don’t blame them for what happened or yourself. Nothing hurts me more than seeing you students suffer because of my mistakes.”

His expression becomes pained. “I’m sorry, Sensei. I never wanted to hurt you.”

He looks away. “To be honest, I only said those things to Midoriya because I knew he’d react to me blaming Bakugou. It’s true I blamed them originally, but after spending some time thinking it over, I realized it wasn’t rational of me to put all the blame on them. So, despite how it looked, I don’t really hold a grudge against them now.”

While it’s a relief to hear that, you still can’t forget the expression he wore in your vision. You could tell at least some of his anger was genuine. “But, deep down, you still felt a little angry toward them, didn’t you? That’s what it looked like from my point-of-view.”

Monoma twitches, proving your suspicions weren’t unfounded. “Yes, you’re right. While I stopped putting all the blame on their shoulders, I couldn’t stop myself from feeling some resentment toward them.”

The blond bows his head. “But, that was wrong of me. I’m sorry, Sensei. You shouldn’t have had to see such a pitiful sight.”

You move to pat his head. “I should be the one apologizing to you. I’m sorry for not realizing you had been hurting sooner. I knew Midoriya and the others had been guilty because they had watched me get kidnapped, but I didn’t realize other students, who weren’t there, were also feeling guilty.”

After he raises his head to look at you with surprise, you copy his earlier actions and lower your head. “I’m sorry for my negligence, Monoma. I shouldn’t have assumed that you and all the other students were fine. I should’ve checked to make sure no one else was showing signs of guilt. If I had, I could’ve helped you sooner. I’m sorry it took so long for us to have this discussion.”

“It’s not your fault!”

Surprised by his shout, you raise your head to see Monoma’s desperate expression. After meeting your gaze, he continues, “I’m just as responsible for never trying to talk to you about it, so please don’t blame yourself. It....”

He bites his lip. “It hurts to watch.”

Eventually, your surprise fades, replaced with a much softer expression. Before he can react, you pull the blond into a hug. “Okay, then from now on, how about we stop blaming ourselves and others for what happened that night? Sound good?”

The tension in his frame begins to gradually fade as he slowly moves to return the embrace. “Yeah, that sounds good to me.”

A smile forms on your lips at his words. “I’m glad.”

When you later release the younger boy, you ruffle his hair. “I also wanted to say thank you for worrying about me. While I hate how much my kidnapping hurt you, it makes me happy to hear how much you care about me. You’re very kind, Monoma.”

His cheeks turn scarlet at your words. “I...I just--I didn’t--You--”

For several seconds, Monoma stammers unintelligibly before he abruptly runs for the front door. “I have to use the restroom! Please excuse me!”

As he rushes into the dorm, you just blink before looking down at one of the nearby cats. “What’s up with him?”

Unsurprisingly, all you get is a meow for an answer. Shrugging, you decide to return to the party.

As you’re heading for the door, you notice your chest feels so much lighter after your talk with Monoma. Obviously, it’s because the guilt that had been weighing heavily on you since this morning has finally lifted. 

Hopefully, Monoma feels the same way.
