The Method (BNHA)

Summary: Izuku requests to see All For One after he's arrested. He'd never said why, but All Might never, ever would've assumed it was for this.

Or: All For One is Hisashi Midoriya. Izuku has a few things to say to him.

"Are you sure you want to do this, my boy?" Toshinori Yagi wasn't the best teacher in the world, he knew. He'd made for a decent Symbol of Peace, and had done his best to uphold the people's spirits. He just… couldn't help but feel he'd failed his charge.

He'd defeated All For One, but at the price of his strength. He was now nothing more than a gangly shadow of the hero he once was, emancipated and weak. Izuku was on the fast track to filling the gargantuan shoes he'd left behind. While he didn't doubt the freckled boy could do it, it was a lot of pressure to put on a teenage boy.

Izuku gave a smile. It was small, and bordering on sad. There was something he wasn't saying. Toshinori didn't want to push. He knew this was a trying time for Izuku. It was a trying time for most of Japan, but especially for the curly-haired boy. Now that All Might was retired and out of the picture, eyes were falling upon the next generation of heroes. 

With Izuku wielding One For All and taking on the challenge of becoming the Number One Hero, the entire world was watching and waiting for him to slip up. To show some sign of weakness. It was a terrible weight for a child to bear.

"I'm sure." Izuku said firmly, looking Toshinori in the eyes, and then Tsukauchi.

You see, while All For One had been defeated, he was far from dead. He was being kept in a high security facility free of any other criminals. It was a place built just for him, filled to the brim with trained guards and pro heroes, ready to strike when needed. Kept in a straight jacket at all times, locked in a windowless room with automated machine guns pointed at him that would fire off and take his life at the slightest hint of movement, it was safe to say All For One wasn’t going anywhere anytime soon. 

Why Izuku was so intent on visiting him, nobody knew. That’s not to say they hadn’t asked, of course.

When he'd first approached Toshinori about it, timid, unsure, and very clearly nervous, it had been a hard no. All For One was the height of all evil. There was no way on God's green earth Toshinori was letting his precious successor anywhere near such a monster. All For One had lived longer than any man should, and had accumulated vast amounts of knowledge and refined his ability to manipulate just about anyone who dared show the slightest bit of weakness in his presence.

That should have been the end of it, but Izuku had come back just a day later with the same request. This time he'd seemed more intent on it, more sure of himself. Toshinori had still given him the same answer. An uneasy yet firm 'no' that was full of questions that he received no answers to. 

He'd dwelt and dwelt on why Izuku may want to visit a mass-murdering immortal without a moral compass or any value for human life. He'd come up dry. There was simply no plausible explanation. Why would Izuku want anything to do with that man, knowing what he was and all he’d done?

The third time Izuku asked, he reluctantly agreed to talk to Tsukauchi. He was the most trusted detective on the police force and had never failed to rally with Toshinori and UA High. He was on their side, and working closely in the All For One case. He was one of the few they could count on. The man was earnest, and someone Toshinori considered a close friend. 

Going to the man for advice was a no-brainer. Toshinori felt out of his depth, torn between possibly alienating his successor by denying his request versus letting Izuku be exposed to one of the world’s most vile evils. 

Tsukauchi had admitted that a meeting between All For One and Izuku would be possible. Tsukauchi and All Might had pretty much full control of what happened to the man and where he went. Japan's Hero association had no idea what to do with the old cryptid. Toshinori was the one who knew his abilities and history the best, so they hadn't hesitated to throw the issue at him. 

So long as All For One didn't kill anyone else, they were willing to let All Might do just about anything with the old fart, barring releasing him and unruly things of that sort. Though they probably hadn’t assumed All Might would ever be considering taking an up and coming hero, a child, to see him.

Izuku had asked a fourth time, and Toshinori had finally point-blank asked why. Izuku's response was nothing short of evasive. He'd simply insisted that it was something he had to do without giving any reasons as to why. Toshinori had wanted to say no again, but the look in the young boy's eyes...

He was all but begging for trust, his eyes alight with hope and determination. He wasn't lying when he said this was something he needed to do. You could tell that just by looking at him. Why it was something he needed to do was what had Toshinori stumped.

So here they were, at a building in the middle of nowhere that looked more like a block of concrete than a regular structure. It was surrounded by tall walls that arched overhead, nearly forming a dome, but stopping just short of doing so. Cementoss and several other pros had worked together to make this place as secure as possible. 

Now, it crawled with trustworthy men and women who wouldn't hesitate to do what was needed were All For One try to stage a breakout. The man was too weak right now to do anything, but… well, being overly cautious never hurt anyone. Who knew what he was capable of.

"We'll just be in the next room over observing on the monitors, Midoriya. Shout if you need something. We'll get you out of there pronto." Tsukauchi gave a reassuring grin that made Izuku look a little less like he was marching off to his death. The boy looked like he was dreading this, and yet he was doing it anyway. 

Toshinori didn't get it. There was something he didn't understand. Izuku had pushed for this, but he knew his successor. He looked absolutely terrified.

"He's right. We'll be right in here." Toshinori also smiled. Izuku nodded firmly back, face set into an expression that was grim yet sure. Tsukauchi sipped at his coffee as he watched the curly-haired boy march out of the room and to the heavily guarded door to be let in. The ID card he was holding as well as the fact that everyone had been told in advance that they'd be coming allowed him instant access.

Toshinori steeled himself, settling down in one of the rolling chairs tensely. Tsukauchi took the one next to him, grimacing at the screen as the electronic door opened. Toshinori didn’t think All For One would try anything-- he never would’ve let Izuku come within ten miles of this place if he thought the man might. He was still just… uneasy.

All For One was a stubborn man. He'd been grinning since he got here, for one thing. The coy smile hadn't faltered even once. Toshinori had gone in to talk to him, along with Tsukauchi and a few others, but it was to no avail. He'd said a total of two things since he got here. Two things, and no more than that.

A part of Toshinori was glad, and hoping maybe that meant he wouldn't talk to Izuku. He knew that was just wishful thinking. All For One knew exactly who Izuku Midoriya was. Toshinori didn't doubt the man had some form of sight that allowed him to identify people. Even with the copious amount of quirk restraints on his person, he'd immediately coined Toshinori when he came in, as well as Tsukauchi. Those had been the two times he spoke.

He wouldn’t miss a chance to mess with Young Midoriya. Toshinori anxiously tapped his foot, throat feeling uncharacteristically tight and heart thumping hard in his chest. It would be fine. Young Midoriya was strong-- far stronger than Toshinori was at his age. All For One was just… a different sort of beast, that’s all. 

Sitting next to him, Tsukauchi could tell his blonde friend was nervous. His shoulders were stiff and hunched, and the tension hanging around him was so thick you could cut it with a knife. The detective couldn't blame him. He too had tried asking Izuku why he wanted to see All For One, and Izuku had responded with a very intent, "It's just something I need to do." 

Tsukauchi's quirk, Human Lie Detector, had registered that firm statement as the truth. Which was perhaps the most jarring part of this all. Whatever this was, Izuku well and truly believed he had to go through with it. 

They watched Izuku hesitantly step into the room. A pane of bullet proof glass was the only thing separating him from the world's greatest villain. The door shut and locked behind him with a loud bang and click that caused him to jolt forward. Toshinori could see his student's adam's apple bobbing precariously as he shuffled to the single chair bolted to the floor, frowning deeply and fiddling his thumbs. 

He reluctantly sat down, and that's when it happened.

All For One's grin absolutely dropped . For the first time since becoming imprisoned here, his expression melted into something else entirely. Tsukauchi and Toshinori had both leaned closer to the monitor, expecting his new expression to be one of malice or hate. Perhaps annoyance, or some sort of twisted amusement.

But no… no, it was the opposite . It caused both men to pause and stare dumbly as All For One's mangled face morphed into one full of disbelief and apparent horror, maybe even fear. The look was out of place on a man like him.

His already pale skin got paler, and he tensed, leaning back as far as he could. Izuku simply stared at him with wobbling lips and teary eyes, hands clasped together so tightly his knuckles were white. You could see the raw disapproval on Izuku's face. 

Not fear, not anger, but disappointment instead. Toshinori and Naomasa both shared a look, the detective bringing his drink to his lips and taking a long gulp. He was going to need something a little stronger depending on how this meeting went.

"...What are you doing here?" All For One breathed out the third ever thing he'd ever said in this accursed place, so quietly the cameras almost didn’t pick it up. The skin around his scarred over eye sockets stretched, and if he had eyes still, Toshinori was sure they'd be wide as saucers. 

His voice sounded so distant, so shocked and disbelieving. It caused Toshinori's teeth to clench and his eyes to narrow. Tsukauchi checked for a third time to make sure this was all being recorded, bringing up his coffee for another swig.

The smile Izuku gave was watery and nothing short of absolutely heartbreaking. 

"Hey, dad." The freckled boy choked out. The reaction was instantaneous. 

Blood sprayed from Toshinori's mouth like water from a broken faucet, sunken eyes wide and jaw dropped as the scarlet liquid began to drip down his jaw. Tsukauchi had been mid swallow as Izuku dropped that cataclysmic statement, resulting in his drink going down the wrong pipe. He began to choke, his eyes just as wide as his friend's as he wheezed and thumped his fist against his chest. 

"Izuku..." All For One trailed off, voice broken and sounding horrifyingly human.

"When I first heard your voice at Kamino, I thought I was hallucinating." Izuku's voice was quiet but level. "It was a voice I heard every Friday for years upon years. You never failed to call, dad. And I never failed to pick up. I haven't seen you in so long, and it makes sense now, I guess." 

The nerves from before were gone. Izuku spoke with certainty that showed he’d thought long and hard about exactly what he wanted to say, and exactly how he wanted to say it. There was a steel resolve in the clench of his jaw and the draw of his brows.

"Izuku, I-" All For One was cut off before he got the chance to continue. The taste of blood stayed strong in Toshinori’s mouth.

"You weren't on a business trip in America." Izuku grit his teeth, his tears falling. These were not the type he tended to burst out with, where he practically dehydrated himself with the force of his wailing. These were silent and far, far more tragic, dripping slow and salty down his face.

All For One flinched as though he'd been struck. Toshinori, with his mouth still agape, realized he'd never seen the man look so vulnerable. He wouldn't have thought it possible if he weren't here witnessing it at this very moment. Next to him, Tsukauchi sucked in a few breaths of deep air, still hacking so hard he was surprised a lung didn't come up.

"...No, no I wasn't." All For One whispered. Izuku bowed his head.

"You got hurt. By All Might." Izuku clenched his fists. His voice waned with the force of his emotion. "A-And... you knew I was his successor. And that night, at Kamino, you-"

"I would never hurt you, Izuku." All For One's voice was steadier now, but only slightly. "I would never hurt you."

It was a sour promise. Izuku seemed to think so too, if the way his breath and shoulders hitched was anything to go off of.

"But you have!" Izuku protested wildly, eyes wide and flashing with warning. "Don't you get it?! You left mom and I! I was bullied my whole life, quirkless, beat down! And then, you tried to take away the one person who came along and told me I could do it?! You tried to take away the person who's been taking more care of me over the past year than you ever have?!"

All For One's face was riddled heavy with guilt, and with bits of anger. Not at Izuku, no, he could never be mad at his son. Maybe the rage was for himself, or perhaps it was better aimed at those bullies Izuku spoke of. Maybe at Toshinori for swooping in and being Izuku's saving grace. 

That damned man didn't know when to quit, and... All For One was almost glad for that, because his son was here, strong-willed, ready to fight, not afraid to confront him. And it sure wasn’t All For One who’d helped him grow to be that way.

All For One had made a great many mistakes in his long lifetime, but falling in love was not one of them. Some might argue that a man like him wasn't capable of such a thing, and he never would have begged to differ. Not until he ran into Inko Sakiaki, that is. 

She was witty and clever, with the biggest green doe-eyes and the most beautiful, earthen hair. She'd looked him right in the eyes and seen right past that polite and unassuming facade he presented carefully to the world. And she’d smiled at him anyway.

Inko was... enrapturing. She was sweet, kind, and caring in ways he never would be. Everything heroes were meant to be, but weren't in his eyes. So he'd fallen in love, and he'd asked her to marry him, and... that's what happened. Simple as that.

For the first time in a long time, he was once again Hiashi Midoriya instead of All For One. A man capable of loving and caring, of making jokes and ruining the kitchen, of breaking a vacuum cleaner and rolling his eyes at mundane TV shows. For a while, he was simply human. It was possibly the best, brightest time of his life, and he’s not afraid to admit such. 

Izuku was born shortly after they were wed. He was the most perfect thing Hiashi had ever seen. He'd inherited Hiashi's wild, curly hair. Fondly, even now that he was blind, he could recall Izuku's freckles, so similar to those of his uncle's. He was such a brilliant little boy, so smart and ready to help. 

He had the heart of a hero, just as his uncle had held all those years ago. Izuku was something to be cherished. He was something to be loved. He was someone that All For One had wanted to give the world. 

But it was all ripped away when All Might and him fought. Perhaps anger had driven him to this point. He'd been sour, wanting desperately for his son and wife, but knowing he'd only scare them with his deformed face and growing bitterness. 

Hiashi once again became All For One, burying himself in his work. It was the easiest thing in the world to slip back into the role. He was going to kill All Might if it was the last thing he did, he’d decided. He created Nomu's, got a hold of Nana Shimura's grandson and begun to groom him. He put together a league that would be the Symbol of Peace's end.

He was All For One, the greatest villain in the world. 

Except on Friday's, between the hours of five to eight PM. 

During that time, he was Hiashi Midoriya again. His phone calls with his son and wife were a great escape. He'd pretend he was just fine, not at all injured or damaged or evil down to his bones. He'd talk about the weather in America and tell them how much he missed them and wished they were there. 

He'd cheer Izuku on, because if his son wanted to become a hero, then Hiashi was sure he'd be the best one to ever walk the planet. While him inheriting Toshinori's power was a cruel twist of fate, there was no better person to wield a power once belonging to his younger brother. If anyone deserved it, it was Izuku.

How it had all gone so wrong, he wasn’t sure. He just knew it was his fault. He’d always tried to be a good father, but men like All For One weren’t made for it. He wasn’t built to care for others. Something in him was broken, and try as he might, he knew… he knew hurting those he dared to love was a horrific inevitability. 

"I'm... I'm sorry, Izuku." All For One murmured. Izuku bit the inside of his cheek. Anger pierced its way up through him, intermingling with his sorrow starkly.

All For One was a horrible person, he’d thought. Someone Izuku had grown to loathe during his time as All Might's apprentice. Tales of all the vile things he'd done and all the suffering he'd caused were sparse, but always gruesome when All Might did dare to murmur them. They painted a horrifying picture of a ruthless man incapable of love.

It was easy to hate All For One when he wasn’t a person. When he was just a story, just a faceless figure that Izuku had never seen, had never met. It was easier to hate someone you didn’t know, and All For One was the worst of the worst. He had hurt thousands, would continue to hurt them, and Izuku… Izuku had thought him the most monstrous being in the world for all he’d done.

The moment Izuku heard his voice, that image fell to pieces and crumbled on the ground.

It didn't take him long to connect the dots, and he was devastated once he did. He'd been so lost and conflicted in the aftermath. All For One and Hiashi Midoriya were the same person . It just barely managed to click in his mind, and when it did, Izuku had been left clueless as to what to do.

How could someone who cheered him on as a hero, told him how much he loved him, and teased him mercilessly about things that had little to no significance in the grand scheme of things-- playfully, for the fun of it-- also be the world's greatest villain?

He could still recall his father's warm eyes alight with fondness as he told Izuku a bedtime story. The way he'd feel so, so tall when his dad put him on his shoulders. The man's reassurances over the phone that even without a quirk, he could be an amazing hero. That he’d be proud of him no matter what.

He'd been near tears when Izuku announced he was into UA, and a mixture of worried and angry when he found out the USJ had been attacked. There was no way that was all a lie, right? It couldn't be. Was his father nothing more than a fake construct meant to mess with him? Was he... Was Izuku a puppet?

"You took away my hero." Izuku grit out, wiping furiously at his eyes. His father's face hardened.

"All Might is still alive. You're... carrying on his will, I believe. As much as it pains me." All For One sighed. "But I will always love you and cheer you on, Izuku. You're my son. Nothing will ever change that."

Izuku felt sick. He felt relieved. He felt angry and upset and he felt yearning. He felt devastation and a pervading coldness that had been crawling up his spine ever since he finally learned just who his father was. He felt too many things at once to possibly name. 

"Not him." Izuku whispered. "Not All Might. He’s my favorite hero, but he wasn't my hero, dad. You were."

Toshinori was frozen. Tsukauchi held his breath, trying to get over his shock.

All For One seemed to dissolve at those words, what was left of his face twisting with horror as Izuku stood up. He lurched forward in his restraints, earning a warning beep in response as his son gathered himself. Izuku gathered the scraps of his composure with shaking hands and tear-stained cheeks.

Everything All For One was as a villain melted away at those two, simple words. Ones All Might and Tsukauchi never would have guessed would affect him so drastically. But he looked horrified. Guilty. Like he couldn't believe what he'd done. There was... regret .

It didn't make up for anything.

All For One felt his chest ache, and suddenly, he realized just what this was. Because he wasn't All For One right now. He had never been, in Izuku’s eyes. 

Right now, he was Hiashi Midoriya, and he'd hurt his son.

[straw-of-the-hat]

Hi! I want to ask several things, hehe.

1. How many words do you write per chapter? It looked long when I read but sometimes it looked short so I have no estimate.

2. In your own opinion, is it better to write your original character in a ["I think I'm going to be sick," I said, ] kind of way or ["I think I'm going to be sick," He says, ] kind of way?

3. If it's alright with you, what are your tips to overcome writer's block?

4. I really want to know how you could write so many chapters in one story and still managed to create new ones and update from time to time, I suck at finishing chapters or not writing a new chapter after a chapter 😭

Sorry for asking so many things but I think it was better than asking separately 😅

God how long has this been in here sorry I'm so inactive y'all. I'll do my best to answer!

Lez go:

1.) The word count tends to vary for me! Over time my chapters have steadily seemed to get longer. I used to write only 2k words a chapter— now I'm very inclined to hit 4k-5k, sometimes even more encroaching upon 6k. I don't think anyone should hold themselves to any limit though. I don't. Just use as many words as it takes to communicate what you want to communicate and have fun with it!

2.) I think you're asking about third person vs first person. I hope you are anyway and if not I do apologize. Honestly? Between the two it's your preference! It's all about what you as a writer want. I used to write only in first person, but I really don't anymore because third person gives me more flexibility in terms of looking at how other characters feel and what they think. You can really bounce around with it and it leaves less constraint! That being said, first person can be super immersive and really dive into a character and make you feel like you're in their shoes.

3.) I find that listening to music and reading really help jog me back into motivation. Taking a break and trying to write something else is always good too. Typically, I don't try to force myself to write anything if I don't feel like it because that's only going to get me more stuck. Take a step back and find things that inspire you. Brainstorm with friends, write some headcanons, make a playlist for your story. Whatever you gotta do to get the cogs turning again!

4.) I'm honestly not sure how to answer this one 😭 It's not really something I plan, I just kinda do it. Thinking of your story as a map may help. Imagine two major plot points. Let's say point A is the entrance exam of a school. Point B is the first day of that school. What needs to happen to get from that point to the other? Build a bridge— they need to take the exam, first of all. They need to get the results of that exam. They need to get their uniform and celebrate. Make a list of things that need to happen and boom, that's your chapter content right there! You'll know you've finished a chapter or chapters when you've checked everything off and arrived at your point B, at which point you brainstorm point C and do the same thing.

I hope some of this helped! I'm 100% not a professional though— this is just what works for me!

[straw-of-the-hat]

what are the most important things to look out for/be conscious of when writing? i mean, i've been writing for a hot minute now, but i still feel like there are times when i have no clue wtf i'm doing??? i guess what i'm asking is what are your most important writing tips?

Writing tips (from not a professional at all I'm sorry in advance)

I'm just gonna make a list because we all know that's what I do best. I've been writing for a long time now, but take all this with a grain of salt. Every writer is different!

I've found, in writing, you should describe just about everything. Is it cold? Tell us. Did they sneeze? Tell us. Is their shirt scratchy and it's annoying them? Tell us. Is the wind rustling the leaves? Tell us. Did a random stranger just give your character a nasty look? Tell us.

Don't rush!!! A lot of times I see writers who have a particular scene they want to write, so they rush to get to it and it leaves the entire thing just— way too fast paced. Take your time. If you have a scene you desperately want to write, write it first and then fill in what comes before afterwards!

When a new character starts to talk, start a new paragraph. Always, always, always! Don't try and make two people talk in the same chunk of text. Line break, please, you're going to confuse everyone and it'll be painful to read!

Don't wonder what the audience wants. Write what you want. If you're afraid to write something because you're afraid people won't like it— it doesn't matter! Write it anyway, because you could go down a road to writer's block if you don't follow your own creative process. The people who like it will read and those who don't, well, their loss.

Don't let yourself get stagnant. This is something I do a lot, where I have chapters that don't progress the plot. A few are fine, but too many and the story starts to drag hard and people lose interest, or you lose sight of the whole point.

Nobody wants to read a gigantic block of text. Break your longer paragraphs in two. Our phone screens are tiny! It's hard to look at a big chunk of words and read all of it just like that. I've found that when I write on my laptop, the screen is obviously wider. Be wary! If you're posting somewhere, that wide paragraph from your computer is going to narrow down into a very long one on someone's phone.

Uses metaphors. Get poetic with it, spice things up. Your teachers rattle(d) on and on about the importance of pathos (emotion) but they're actually right. People want to feel and connect with your story and character. Put them into the shoes of whoever you're writing about.

I see so many stories where the main character doesn't really have a personality for some reason. We rarely see their thoughts or feelings. They interact and they're there, but they're dry as a bone. Set your character apart. Make them feel like a real person, talk like one, think like one.

On the note of talking, dialogue. Please... For the love of all things holy, say what it is out loud to yourself. Is that something a real person would say? Or does it come out awkward and stilted when you say it? What would YOU say in whatever situation you're writing about? Make it seem real, like this is something that really happened and you're just transcribing it.

If you notice yourself using the same word too often, look up synonyms for it. I promise it'll change the game.

Most importantly of all: Do NOT info dump about your character. Don't start the story with every detail of their appearance and outfit, or with this big block of text explaining exactly how they act, what their likes are, their dislikes. Gradually tell us as the story progresses. Let us get to know them over time so we get attached, so they seem realer. It'll help your readers remember them and connect to them.

I'm sure there's tons more I could say but these are the tips most important to me! I hope this helped somehow!

I love Kit's and Izuku's friendship. They're my BROTP. So could I bother you to write some headcanons based on their friendship and the shenanigans they get into?

Kit and Izuku shenanigans

These headcanons belong to this story!

✨ Let me just start out by saying they've definitely committed arson.

✨ Kit is the only reason Izuku had any confidence and if anything ever happens to him Izuku is probably going to shrivel up like a piece of month old broccoli and never move again.

✨Tenya is deathly afraid of leaving Kit and Izuku alone together but can't do much considering how close they live to each other. He's never considered himself religious, but by god does that boy pray everytime he sends those two off on their own.

✨Kit somehow managed to get into a fist fight at least once a week on their way home but Izuku has learned to just sit back and watch it go down rather than try and intervene.

✨They both chill at the Midoriya apartment all the time and talk about theoretical plans to overthrow the hero commission and revamp it from the inside.

✨Izuku has written "adopted by All Might" fanfiction and yes Kit knows and will forever hold it over his head. He's printed out four copies and has sent it to fifteen different emails.

✨They try to start a quirkless mafia but it's literally not working and Kit is irrationally angry because most of Japan's quirkless population is made up of old people. Old people with knee problems. As the mafia, they should be the ones causing the knee problems, not experiencing them!

✨Izuku is inspired and decides he absolutely must know how to seduce people. Kit forces Tenya into his demonstration and Izuku has like, half a notebook worth of notes.

✨He practices on Katsuki, naturally. Kit is all for it because Katsuki always comes home looking like he just got blasted in the face with a stream of ice water: shivering, flushed cheeks, wide eyes. It's fucking hilarious.

✨ They're low-key constantly insulting each other. Like all the time. And yet their self-esteem never stops growing? How can they be putting each other down and lifting each other up at he same time it doesn't make sense. Quirkless unity?

✨Kit tried—really, honest to fuck tried—to get Izuku into anything other than one of his weird shirts labeled "pants" or "flannel". He made a gargantuan effort and it just didn't work. Izuku could be a fashion icon if he just let the shirts go. He could be on the runway, and Kit is in agony.

✨They DIYed their own Tenya shirts to irritate him because what else are they supposed to do if not annoy him? They also run an Iida family Stan account on Twitter and worship Tensei like he's some sort of saint. Which I mean, he may as well be.

✨Izuku has never had alcohol so they dressed Denise up in their stolen Endeavor costume and sent him in to go illegally purchase them whatever the nomu could get his hands on. It was white claw but they made do.

✨Izuku starts a blog about Kit and Tenya's relationship and Kit knows this yet can't find a way to permanently delete it. It just pops back up and Izuku rags on them publicly for their PDA. It's brutal. The commenters are so cutthroat.

✨They stole a minivan once because Izuku used his pay to buy a rare, life-sized All Might statue off of eBay and they had no way to transport it. Where did Izuku even learn how to hotwire?

✨Denise does have a crush on the statue and they're not going to tell All Might this nor are they going to do anything about it. It's comedic relief at it's finest. Plus Inko really enjoys setting up fake dates for the statue and Denise because it makes the Nomu so impossibly happy. Who are they to get in the way of that?

✨They make a Chad shrine in every public bathroom they find and there's sort of a thing about it on Reddit that's slowly growing in size. I.E., they accidentally made Chad his own cult. They're both too afraid to tell Tenya.

✨They bully Katsuki on purpose and it's so fun. He gets so scared. Kit is already teaching Izuku how to take him down in a one on one fight without a quirk and by the time Izuku gets to UA he will be unstoppable.

✨They like to dress Luis the Chihuahua up in little outfits and post them on the Instagram he made for them. They're both way too invested in it. It's a miracle that dog isn't dead with own old and decrepit it is, honestly.

✨They have six different secret handshakes and they all mean different things.

✨Kit is GOING to give Izuku a haircut one day soon, even if he has to knock him out to get it done.

✨Why does Kit literally make Izuku livid what the fuck. Izuku used to be fine. Docile, if you will. Now he's just irritated and drenched in sarcasm that he can't stop from pouring out. Yet he also adores him. Where is the line and when did they cross it?

✨ Izuku's still too afraid to ask for ketchup at a restaurant. That's what Kit is for, Izuku supposes.

✨Izuku writes down any kink Kit alludes to ever for the sole purpose of later shaming him. Oh, and giving Tenya a heads up. Poor guy has no idea what's going on.

✨ They kill it at dance dance revolution

✨Kit is always trying to hook Izuku up with anyone hot they come across. He just knows Izuku would thrive in a relationship.

✨ He's sort of eyeing Shoto Todoroki for the role, actually. He and Izuku would be cute, right?

✨Izuku knows all of Kits passwords and sometimes breaks into his Instagram just to screenshot all the thirst messages the other boy gets and sends them to Tenya. Tenya gets so offended and Kit is left to deal with the aftermath. Absolutely hilarious.

✨Izuku knows how to disarm pretty much any type of bomb you can think of and teaches Kit all he knows. In return, Kit takes him to a casino and shows him the ways of poker

✨Kit is really good at poker and that makes people made and yes they are now running for their lives

✨Izuku always carries a pair of emergency shoes for Kit even though he knows they'll just be lost. Better safe than sorry.

✨Kit, in parallel, has a variety of fidget toys hidden on his person at any given time in case Izuku finds himself feeling anxious

✨Kit once sat on Izuku's shoulders and they wore a really longe trench coat to break into Best Jeanist's main fashion department building to steal his runway plans so they could know what they were up against

✨They outclassed him in every imaginable way

✨Izuku literally dissociates anytime Kit opens his mouth to talk about Tenya. He doesn't want to know. TMI. Time out. No.

✨Kit dared Izuku to go up to Endeavor in disguise during his patrol and pretend to ask for an autograph and instead knee him in the balls.

✨Izuku's chosen disguise was a full sonic the hedgehog costume and he did in fact knee endeavor in the crotch. And yes, it's a meme now

✨ They have an Endeavor hate chant

✨Izuku really wants to add All Might merch to the Suzuko line and Kit just thinks he's a nerd and a suck up. All might is already his teacher and now he wants designer clothes with his face on it? Too far, man. Too far.

✨They have matching jeans that they definitely didn't steal when they broke into Jeanist's fashion depot.

✨Overall they're an unstoppable and rather irritating force to be reckoned with and will stop at nothing to wreck havoc, much to Tenya's disdain.

Can I write a one-shot story for Lillian in one of my books? It's for my dekuverse book which is just random mha stories. My username on wattpad is @gravityfalls_Deku.

This is something you would need to message me about on Wattpad!

[straw-of-the-hat]

My favourite fanmade Lillian × Bakugou headcanon: Bakugou wears hair ties and scrunchies on his wrist (like a soft boyfriend) and no one knows why. Kirishima once found a box of colorful rubber hair bands in Bakugou's bag. Everyone is confused. Thoughts?

LilliKat: Hair ties

NOT EDITED DJJDJS RIP

-Kirishima is the first to notice. How could he not, really, when the band sticks out like such a sore thumb against Bakugo's usual brash attire. The sleeve of his dishevelled uniform is hiked up slightly as he writes, and the redhead gets a glimpse of a bright, neon blue hair tie.

-He stares at it for pretty much the rest of the day, trying to figure out whether or not he should ask about it. There's no way it's Katsuki's. He doesn't have enough hair to even think about tying it back into anything presentable. That leaves there to be no real explanation for the tie. No one in their friend group can really put their hair back aside from Sero, but the tape-user never does.

-Kirishima decides not to say anything. It's probably a coincidence, right? Maybe he saw it on the ground and just picked it up and didn't have a place for it. Maybe he was using it for something that wasn't related to hair. Kirishima didn't want to micro-analyze everything his explosive bro did. He'd only get a sharp glare and a snarl in return.

-See, this should've been the end of it. Especially seeing as a the blue band had vanished from his wrist by that evening. Kirishima felt oddly relieved that this unknown variable was missing. It came as a great shock when those feelings were dashed the very next day when he saw that Bakugo now had three bands on his wrist—one black, one bright pink, and the other a nauseating shade of sunflower yellow.

-It didn't make sense. Kirishima couldn't stop staring at them. What were they for? They seemed to vanish throughout the day. Where were they going? What was he doing with them? It made zero sense. Kirishima shouldn't have been bothered by something as small as hair ties, but this was Bakugo they were talking about. He never opened up about anything! And he was abrasive as they came. This new little quirk was confusing.

-The next few days proved that the bands wouldn't be vanishing anytime soon. They varied in number, sometimes as low as one or as high as six. They were always extremely bright, and they were almost always gone by the end of the day. Kirishima watched and tried his best to figure out where they were going. They seemed to dissolve into thin air. He'd look away one second and boom: one would be missing. It was infuriating.

-He probably could've just asked. It was a minor thing, after all. Hair ties! Bakugo surely wouldn't blow up over that. Kirishima didn't, though, because why would he? Instead he told his friends what he'd noticed and got them in on it too. Mina was the most excited. Kaminari just seemed vaguely amused, like maybe he knew something. Kirishima had tried to ask. The electric blonde would only ever shrug in response.

-None of them could figure out what was going on. For a few weeks, these bands persisted. They were always bright colors that didn't go with his personality at all. A few even had patterns like stripes or polka dots on them. Mina had spotted a few with tiny little flower beads on them!

-They were about to ask what the hell they were for when they reached a turning point. Because Bakugo walked in with not only three hair ties on his right wrist that morning, but a bright blue scrunchie with white flowers on it as well. The words died on their respective tongues. It stuck out like a sore thumb on his wrist.

-Bakugo didn't acknowledge it. It vanished sometime during the day too, the next day replaced by a glittery gold scrunchie and one that was a muted orange color. The other hair ties persisted in abundance as well. What were they for? Who did they belong to? Surely not him.

-Kaminari suggested that he was holding onto them for someone else, albeit hesitantly. He was brushed off. A mistake, because that made more sense then one would think. Of course the hair ties would be going to someone else. They just hadn't wanted to consider the thought because of how... Well, reclusive and mean Bakugo tended to be. Why would he care enough to hold onto hair ties?

-Answers came flying at them from the left field one day during hand to hand combat training. They were all dressed in their gym uniforms, chatting and waiting for the class to begin. Kirishima, Mina, and Sero were jabbering endlessly to Kaminari about the proper right hook whilst Bakugo slowly tried to drift away from the group. They followed without really realizing. Today, his wrist was particularly full of different bands and ties and scrunchies.

-Kirishima's attention was drawn when Lillian began to inch towards them, looking particularly nervous. Her eyes darted about, her fingers fiddling awkwardly. He didn't talk to Lillian much, but she was very manly, and surprisingly funny. She'd become pretty good friends with Kaminari recently. He was glad. He friend had been terrified of her before. For good reason, apparently. Mr. Aizawa's daughter? It's no wonder she was so scary!

-Mina turned with a smile, greeting her cheerfully. Bakugo's gaze snapped over, his brows rising. Lillian pursed her lips. Sero asked what she needed, smiling in a reassuring and welcoming sort of way. Lillian's hand came up to touch her hair, which was down and out of it's usual bun or ponytail. Immediately, gazed snapped to Bakugo.

-Kirishima hadn't thought he'd be willing to give up any of his hair ties for some reason. He was surprised when his explosive friend rolled his eyes and scoffed, beckoning her over with an inpatient hand. Lillian scurried over fearlessly, which was bold to say the least.

-And then things clicked into place, really. And Kirishima felt kind of dumb. Mostly surprised, but dumb too

-"How the fuck do you manage to lose so many of these?" Bakugo griped, his hands gathering up her wild hair expertly. He'd done this before. "You need one every two seconds. I'm not going to fucking supply them forever."

-"It's not like I asked you to. You just invited yourself in. You're lucky I let you touch my hair." Lillian accused. "You're the one who always has their hands on it anyway. Don't turn this around."

-Bakugo scoffed, but he was smiling. Kirishima stared. Mina and Sero did too. Kaminari didn't seemed surprised in the slightest.

-Bakugo put Lillian's hair up into a perfect bun with careful hands, doing his best not to pull. Lillian flipped around and gave him a quick hug afterwards, spewing thank yous as she ran back towards her group of friends— and her father, who didn't look happy. Bakugo grinned after her, ignoring the stares of his friends.

-Kirishima was speechless. Totally speechless. Lillian came over twice during training, her hair down and dishevelled, looking lost. Bakugo would stop whatever he was doing without falter to help, always grinning at her and carding his fingers through her hair. Mina would always gawk. Sero didn't seem necessarily scared: just perplexed.

-Aizawa came over at some point and told Bakugo to stay away from his kid. He barked out a laugh and told him to just try separating them.

-Things made more sense now. An absurd type, but sense nonetheless.

do u think you can write a thing where tamaki and lillian have a moment where both of them are freaking tf out and bond over their fear of like everything having to do with socializing

Lillian and Tamaki: ✨social anxiety✨

These headcanons belong to this story

WARNING: Typos and a weird font shift halfway through 💀

After her panic attack pertaining to the USJ, Lillian didn't talk as much to the Big Three. Mic had moved her into a seat by his desk where she was free to stare blankly and dissociate to her heart's content. She'd already mastered English, after all.

It was no secret that they still felt guilty about what they'd done. Lillian wasn't upset over the event. She'd never harbored any ill will towards them. It's not like they could've known just how upset she'd be.

A project came up that Lillian would have to partake in. She was paired with Amajiki. Of all of the big three, she'd honestly gotten along with him the best. Their anxieties were similar, as were their mannerisms.

Unfortunately, this project involved asking people who weren't in their class questions about the English language and culture. A sort of survey thing. Which was— pardon Lillian's french— complete and total bullshit

"I really don't want to do this." The freckled girl breathed out. They were standing in one of UA's many crowded halls. Tamaki clutched their clipboard tighter, his eyes darting about in hopes of catching a familiar face.

"M...Me neither." He squeaked out, sweat pouring down his face. Lillian gulped. She'd gotten better anxiety wise. A lot better! However, she was far from cured. These people were still strangers. What if they annoyed them? Met someone mean? Ruined someone's day, or interrupted something important? Lillian didn't want to be a nuisance to anyone!

Tamaki was clearly in the same boat. They'd squished themselves together like a pair of scared mice being hunted. Lillian had hoped she could just go and ask some of her classmates but Mic had grinned and told her that was against the rules. It couldn't be anyone in their class. Or Neito. And it couldn't be a teacher, either, unless it was one not in their year. Their choices were slim, and downright awful.

"I-I'll go ask someone. I... I a-am your upperclassman..." Tamaki's voice died out near the end, a shiver wracking his body as the weight of his offer settled in. He was the oldest here. As Lillian's senpai, it was his job to step up and... And...

Lillian winced as Tamaki's head dropped, his face paling and his entire body drooping like he'd simply given up. She could do this. She could ask someone! She did Mic's radio show and has almost died like, several times. This was nothing compared to that. Right? Yeah, yes. Absolutely.

Lillian went to call out to someone, but her voice died in her throat. So many upperclassmen. So many conversations going on that she didn't want to interrupt. Tamaki put a hand on her shoulder in understanding when he saw the way she froze mid-step. She turned towards him almost robotically, seeing his sympathetic, wobbly frown. She took a deep breath.

"W...Wanna go to a cat cafe and forge the answers?" Lillian blurted it out before she could stop herself. Her eyes popped open wide, her hand coming up to cover her mouth. Tamaki stared at her wide eyed. She stared back. For a moment, they stayed frozen, simply gazing at one another.

"Y-Yes. Let's do that." Tamaki decided. Lillian deflated with relief, allowing him to hook his arm with hers and drag her along. Of all the people she could've been paired with... Well, she was glad it was him.

[straw-of-the-hat]

Okay, I'm rereading Feral and it mentioned that since scowling is Kit's go to expression Tenya had to learn what each one meant. So what if he could do the same to Katsuki when he got to UA and just used it to mess with him?

Some Feral content

These headcanons belong to this story

Expect typos, as per the usual my homebody's.

-Tenya truly didn't mean to do it at first. It was on reflex that he recognized what Katsuki was hiding behind his scowl. He and Kit were related after all. They were terrifyingly similar, yet entirely different at the same time. Their expressions were close enough to one another that Tenya was able to pick apart Bakugo's expressions without much thought

-Katsuki Bakugo prides himself on his ability to hide his emotions, no matter how unhealthy his method of masking with anger may be. Even Deku finds it hard to discern him at times. So why in fucks name was fucking Emergency Exit able to know what the was feeling?

-The first time was after their very first training exercise. The one they'd lost. Horribly. Shitty Deku had somehow managed to spawn himself a fucking quirk. Katsuki hadn't wanted to be paired with RoboCop, and Tenya wasn't jumping with joy at the thought either. But it happened nonetheless. They came, they participated, and they failed miserably.

-Katsuki was reasonably upset. His frustration, confusion, and disappointment in himself portrayed outwardly as piping hot rage that made all his new classmates take a minor step back for fear of losing a limb. Tenya hadn't seen it that way, though. One look at Katsuki's face told him that the explosive teen wasn't truly mad. He was scared.

-Tenya assured him offhandedly that there was nothing to be afraid of! That though it was intimidating to have such skilled classmates, that only illustrated how hard they'd have to work to keep up. Katsuki nearly combusted on the spot. Tenya was already walking away before he could say shit.

-But how had he known?

-It kept happening. In their study period he blew up, shrieking at all the extras to shut the fuck up and that they were idiots. And fucking Engine Legs had simply looked up, looked at him, and then claimed that it was fine to listen to music during this period if he was having trouble focusing. That he wouldn't be reprimanded, as Present Mic had heartily given them permission to use their phones. How the fuck had he gotten distraction from his fit of curses? How'd he know that shit?

-Izuku was actually the first to connect the dots and realize Tenya's hidden talent. Despite having grown up with him, even Izuku struggled to pick apart what Kacchan's different expressions meant. Kit has been a way for Tenya to ease into the field and master it quickly. This was a unique ability nobody else had. One that would be fun to fuck around with.

-Yeah, it took a little manipulation on Izuku'd part. Not anything bad! Tenya was just uptight and hesitant. Izuku wasn't a genius for nothing, though. He got his friend on board and a part of the scheme in no time.

-Katsuki was a private person. So when Emergency Exit started fucking about and calling out every little thing he was feeling, he was fucking pissed.

-The offhanded "I too thought Kirishima's display was impressive" and the mild "Jealousy isn't a good trait for a hero to have!" made Katsuki vibrate with absolute, unbridled rage. How did he know?! How the fuck was he doing this?! Even Katsuki's own mother wasn't as good at deciphering him as this fucker was.

-Izuku became quick friends with Round Face and the Icyhot fuck. Katsuki felt sour about this, admittedly. It felt weird not to have the nerd trailing him. It was like something was... missing. Which was shit seeing as he'd gone to a different middle school their last year, but this was different! It... It fucking hurt.

-And of course engine fucker knew this. Why the fuck wouldn't he?!

-For weeks, Katsuki was driven insane. Fucking batshit. People started calling RoboCop the "Bakugo Whisperer" as though he were some sort of animal. Which sure, he acted like one sometimes, but fuck off! It didn't make any sense. How was it possible?! They weren't friends. They didn't know shit about one another. So how the fuck?!

-Answers came on a Saturday night when his shit ass cousin was scheduled to have his shitty boyfriend over to converse more with the hag and his dad. Katsuki was forced to comply and come down to participate in the dinner. He was instructed to be on his best behavior. He could hardly keep himself from jumping at Kit's throat as the bitch grinned slickly at him. His parents had already met Kit's bitch, so why did this matter so much??

-He wasn't super sure what he expected. Some delinquent a few years older than Kit. Maybe some tattoos and the tell tale smell of smoke most cigarette addicts carried. A leather jacket and ratty jeans. Piercings and gaudy jewelry, perhaps.

-The last thing he thought he'd be seeing as Tenya fucking Iida walking through the door, smiling politely and giving his greetings to the hag and his dad. Everything crashed down around him. Light shone down on a million realizations he hadn't seen before. Katsuki could only do one thing. The thing he did best.

-He blew the fuck up

How, how, hOw do you know how to write so well¿¿¿

Girl you're way too nice! My writing is far from the best, but this is personally how I got to where I am: A lot of the grammatical aspects came over time and with practice. I'd recommend, when you read books and stories, to try and take note of how commas are used and I encourage you to look up the meanings of words you don't mean!

Also, try to be original. Do something no one else has before, and do it as best you can. People get tired of reading the same cliches over and over again! Add twists and foreshadow! Give your characters depth and development! If you're doing your best and writing an idea no one has ever seen before, they're gonna stay to see where it goes.

It took me years to get where I am today! But if I can go from not knowing the difference between "your" and "you're" and putting a space before and after every period to this, you can too!

Hey bb can I request a Shinso x Reader? Any plot you want or I guess some morning cuddles. Idek. I'm dumb.

I'm gonna say it before anymore requests come in 👊😔

I lack the ability to write a xReader

I can't. I cannot. I hate it, I can't read them, I can't write them. They drive me nuts. I can never mentally plug my name or features in and writing them is hard because you can't give a character with no identity much depth or even personality. Not when they're supposed to be able to fit any person who reads the book. I'm sorry to say I will not be taking xReader requests at this time because of it. I'll make up an OC, use a canon character, and even use one of mine. But I have never written a xReader and I never will. Thank you, though! I just,,, small brain. No function.

Oof Tumblr is confusing, hey have you ever read soul mate AU's if you have what do you think of them?

I really, really love soulmate AUs! It's actually one of my favorite tropes. I adore all forms of it and have always really wanted to do an in-depth one aside from Sorry that stars before the two soulmates have met each other. Just really dig into that soulmate aspect and focus more on that, you know?

Does anyone have any suggests as to who they'd want to see be soulmates if I wrote something like that? Maybe oc x Endeavor or oc x Kurogiri or something that would and could get very complicated, very fast. I'm open to suggestions (if anyone is actually reading this tbh I don't know anymore)

Uhhh, can we get some head cannons of what you think the students of 1-A would do for work if qwerks didn’t exist?

No-quirks AU?

Expect typos 💙 hope you all enjoy!

Izuku: I feel that Izuku, with his passion for knowledge and for saving lives, would probably end up being an EMT. His willingness to hop into dangerous situations would make him a formidable, if not reckless, first responder.

Katsuki: Katsuki would definitely be a police officer I feel like. He's got this superiority complex and this need to be better than everyone around him. Being a person of the law would let him help people while remaining authorative.

Shoto: Shoto would probably have been born into acting or something of that sort. Corresponding with his backstory, him being a child actor forced into certain roles would make sense, and him breaking out and venturing into new genres would fit.

Aoyama: I feel Yuga would definitely be a fashion designer or beauty guru online. He seems like the type to become youtube famous for having such a unique and funny personality. There's no doubt he has certain specialties he could push out into the world.

Mina: Mina would be a dancer. Broadway, backup at concerts, center stage— you name it. Her creative passion and ability to choreograph in the actual show would definitely support this!

Tsuyu: Tsu would be a biologist specializing in animals you might find in a bog. Snakes, frogs, turtles, alligators, and things like that. I feel she'd do a lot of environmental studies and experiment with the different bacterias in an ecosystem to make sure they remained balanced.

Tenya: Tenya seems like a teacher or professor. His strict nature and ability to take hold of a room tells me he'd do good directing others and teaching them. He'd definitely dedicate himself to his students and to keeping up with the workload.

Uraraka: Ochako would be a lawyer that specialized in defending children. Her kind nature would make her good at it, and her boldness and will when faced with a challenge would drive her forward in the harder times. Her wish to support herself and her family would definitely push her to work hard at her job and help others.

Ojiro: Martial arts for sure. He'd be living up in some temple mastering several techniques and possibly utilizing them in live tournaments. With his swiftness and ability to think on his feet, he'd do great.

Kaminari: Denki would be a DJ that organized events. He's not the most booksmart but I think if he were faced with putting together a killer party, he'd out-due anyone else who dared try. He could definitely make a business out of it.

Kirishima: Eijiro would be a professional bodybuilder and firefighter. His constant talk of manliness and the way he works himself to death supports that he'd be willing to commit to both of these at the same time. He loves to save people and is a lot smarter than he's given credit for.

Koda: Koji would be an animal rehabilitator. His love for animals and shy composure proves he'd probably feel more comfortable working primarily with wildlife rather than tons of other people.

Sato: Rikido would be a professional baker for obvious reasons. Baking is a passion of his and he's already great at it in canon. I feel he'd also have a huge social media gig going on that supported body positivity and going on diets that still included sugar and things people enjoy.

Shoji: Mezo would be a therapist for youth. He's quiet, soft-mannered, and a great listener. He always protects his classmates and has a huge heart. His ability to feel such strong empathy would work well with kids and teens in need of help.

Jiro: Kyoka would be a singer and a songwriter who toured the world and threw killer concerts. Her casual confidence and strong voice would draw in fans in droves, and her talent with the guitar would only boost that. There's no question that she'd be famous.

Tokoyami: Fumikage would without a doubt own an obscure little mystery store in a small town that tourists drove miles just to see. Wiccan oddities, cryptid apparel, and a variety of gothic jewelry. Maybe some records too. He'd flourish in a setting like that.

Mineta: Minoru would be in ✨jail✨

Momo: Yaoyorozu would be the rich heir of some huge company specializing in oil and stocks. She'd probably run a tea business on the side and open a chain of dainty little cafes that she'd work hard to manage herself.

Hagakure: Toru would be a make-up artist. I don't know why it fits her vibe so well, but it does. Possibly feeling unseen, she might make it her life's passion to make others and herself more noticeable. There had to be times when she didn't feel pretty. I bet she would've easily decided that she didn't want herself or anyone else to ever feel that again

Hope you enjoyed! These were just my personal opinion!

what if lillians mom didnt leave her at the hospital?? like, when lillian got sick and she couldnt pay the bill she just.. left with lillian. would she still go to u.a.??

What if Lillian's mom had kept her?

These belong to this fic

-When Mayako Aki realized she didn't have the money to pay for the treatment Lillian would need, she did what any mother would do. She let them treat her daughter, and then she picked her baby up and ran.

-They'd simply avoid that hospital from then on out. Easy as pie.

-Lillian recovered just fine after her little visit to the doctors, growing up happy and healthy. Her and her mom didn't have much, but they had each other. That was enough for the both of them.

-Mayako loved Lillian more than anything else in the entire world. She worked several jobs so that Lillian could have everything she needed. Eventually, she got a solid job at a hero firm as a receptionist. Things because a bit steadier after that.

-Mayako helped Lillian with her quirk, teaching her how to use it and encouraging her to. Lillian grew up proud, loving her mother to absolute pieces.

-Lillian knew she had a dad, she just didn't know who it was. They shared the surname Aizawa. Her mom had told her the story of her awkward teen pregnancy and one-night-stand, and how she'd chosen to give her her father's name. Lillian was fine not knowing who he was. She had her mom, and that's all she needed. She didn't dig.

-Lillian decided in middle school that she wanted to be a hero. Her mom and encouraged her, smiling and cheering her on. She assured her that she could do whatever she wanted with her life. Lillian started to work towards her goal.

-Her mom started thinking about dating. Lillian encouraged her, wanting her mom to be as happy as possible.

-Mayako ran into a nicely-dressed individual on the road. He'd made her drop her groceries, the bag breaking. He'd offered to warp her home with his quirk. His name was Kurogiri, and he and her mom got along like a house on fire.

-He started to come over. Lillian liked him too. He was polite and kind, and would braid her hair for her and cook meals. He seemed to really like her mom, and cared for Lillian too, picking her up from school and spending time with her.

-Lillian got into UA on recommendation of the heroes at the agency her mom worked for. She went and tested in Group Two, which was led by a hero named Ectoplasm. She was glad. Group A had a scary looking wind guy and Endeavors son. The teacher watching over them seemed tired, too.

-Lillian got in. Kurogiri seemed almost scared, but proud too, and so did her mom. Her mom scooped her up and hugged her, planting kisses all over her face.

-Kurogiri asked Lillian if he was allowed to propose to her mom. Lillian said yes, hugging him tight and beaming up at him with big blue eyes. Kurogiri decided right then that he wasn't going to leave the league like he'd been planning. It was easier to protect her from the inside, he realized.

-The first day of class came and her teacher introduced himself as Shota Aizawa. Eraserhead. Lillian started at him blandly, brows furrowing. Dark hair, strong nose, prominent cheek bones. She sighed. Yeah, no, that had to be him.

-Aizawa did a double take on the roster, staring at Lillian's last name as she stepped up to bat for the first part of the exam. Someone— the tape kid— asked if they were related.

-Shota said no. At the same time, Lillian shrugs and says yes. And then she promptly freezes them all so she can go drop the ball some amount of meters away.

-Aizawa spends the rest of the day staring at her and soaking in the resemblance. They're related. They're definitely related. She knows that, too, but hasn't said anything.

-He cracks open an old yearbook that night and finds a photo of a brunette girl with freckles he met at a party. He stares. The photo seems to stare back.

-He has a child. One he didn't even realize existed.

-The next day is the day they go to the USJ, and he's in awe as he watches his apparent daughter shyly socialize with the other girls in class. She seems to gravitate towards Sero, Kirishima, Kaminari and Mina. She's a human. A whole tiny little human with a personality and quirk and he helped make that.

-Sero is giving her googly eyes he doesn't like, too.

-They get to the USJ and a mist appears. Lillian freezes. The mist is... Familiar. And so are the glowing eyes. But that voice is so cold and echoey. It can't be her Kurogiri, can it? Impossible. There's no way.

-Her classmates are scattered and her dad rushes off to fight. She's left with thirteen, tense and unsure of what to do. Kurogiri— is that him? Lillian can't tell. She doesn't want to tell— joins whoever that Shigaraki guy is. They send Iida out the door.

-Aizawa gets grabbed by this huge monster, and she runs. She freezes the beast, taking the stairs three, four at a time. Her classmates call desperately after her as she flies feet-first into the nearest villain.

-Kurogiri can't breathe as Lillian moves. He hadn't realized she was in 1-A. She wasn't supposed to be. She was supposed to be in 1-B. He'd been sure he'd managed to swap her with that blonde kid with the copy quirk. Had Nezu noticed and swapped it back?

-Lillian tugs the Nomu off her dad just in time, blood dripping from her mouth. She unfreezes her dad and the Nomu. The creature flies through the air, and Shigaraki howls.

-Aizawa is hurt. He can only watch in horror as the Nomu rounds on them, ready to attack Lillian again. Lillian is paralyzed, and everything hurts. She isn't sure she can freeze it again. She took too long getting to her dad for that. The girl can hardly move.

-Kurogiri let's out a shout when he realizes Lillian isn't going to move. Everyone watches a portal suck Lillian up before the Nomu can get her. She's dropped on top of Kurogiri, who's mist shrinks as he catches in. He's breathing hard, glowing eyes wide as he holds her.

-Shigaraki shrieks with rage and lunges. Kurogiri backpedals, shaking his head and holding Lillian close. His eyes dart between Aizawa's shocked expression and the surprised faces of the students. With a raise of his hand, the Nomu is being warped away, and he and Lillian are disappearing into his mist. Leaving Shigaraki alone and without a way out.

-Kurogiri takes Lillian to the hospital. UA is frantic trying to find her. The police panic. They contact Lillian's mother, who is confused by the entire situation. They tell her she was warped away. Mayako blinks and says "isn't that a good thing?"

-Lillian miraculously shows up back at school the next day. Kurogiri called Mayako, crying and explaining. Mayako is completely lost. Her kid is fine, right? Kurogiri used to be a villain, but he's leaving the league? Sounds good to her. Lillian seems fine with it. Confused, but fine.

-Aizawa all but passed out when Lillian shows up WITH the warp gate that had kidnapped her.

-Lillian just smiles, assuring him that Kurogiri is her stepdad and that it's fine. The police show up to question him. Her classmates all cry over her return despite having only known her about a day.

-Honestly, Lillian isn't sure what whats happening. But she has her mom, Kurogiri, and now, her dad. So maybe not knowing is okay.

...More LillianxKatsuki soulmate AU’s please?

More soulmate AU: LilliKat—

These are from this fic!

Red String:

-Katsuki has always ignored his red String to an extent. He has bigger and better things to worry about. His soulmate can come later, he thinks.

-Lillian ignores her own for the most part too, but not because of her ego or anything as petty as that. She has to worry whether or not her soulmate will like her.

-They both get into UA just fine. They don't seem to notice they're attached. They're never close enough, and neither assumed their other half would be sitting in the same room as them. Separated by rows of their classmates, they don't realize they're connected.

-The longer you're close to your soulmate without coming into contact with them, the more impatient your string becomes. It tightens and starts to tug, taut and not nearly as loose as it usually would be. Aizawa is giving a lecture when Lillian's pinkie is yanked so hard she yelps.

-Everyone turns to look at her. Lillian flushes red, rubbing her hand in an embarrassed way. Mina sees immediately and stands up with sparkling eyes. She ignores Aizawa's demand she sit back down, clapping her hands together.

-The girl asks if her string had been yanked. Everyone goes quiet. Lillian looks to her dad with startled eyes. He looked scared, like he's realizing what happened. Shoto looks to Lillian with furrowed brows.

-Lillian nods, and then her string yanks her again. Shoto barely has time to catch her before she hits the ground. Katsuki isn't so lucky. He crashes to the floor with a million curses spewing from his lips.

-Aizawa is very, very pale. Lillian pops up, eyes flying to Katsuki as the blonde sits up.

-Jiro is laughing, and Kirishima is whispering at Katsuki not-so-quietly asking if Lillian is his soulmate.

-Lillian pulls at her string. Bakugo blinks when his string tugs. They both follow the red line, seeming to realize they've been connected this entire time. Hitoshi groans.

-Neito had borrowed a quirk that let him see people's strings, once. He'd reported to Hitoshi that Lillian and Bakugo were connected. Hitoshi had been dreading them finding out. Though, they sure had taken their sweet time.

-Their string shortens, nearly sending Lillian over Tokoyami's desk as she's pulled towards Katsuki. She hisses as the boy stands up, looking entirely surprised.

-He asks Lillian if they're actually soulmates. She looks him in the eye and says "guess".

-Aizawa's quirk flares as Katsuki barks out a laugh, hopping over a desk to get over to her as Tokoyami helps her safely climb over his. The girl apologizes up and down to her classmate, but is yanked again before he can say anything.

-Hagakure and Ochako cheer. Momo looks mildly horrified, looking to Shoto as though he has any idea. The half and half boy just wrinkles his nose. They were going to be stuck with Katsuki forever now that he and Lillian were tied together. Literally.

-Lillian's hand presses itself flat against Bakugo's, their string forcing their palms together. Heat shoots through the pair of them. Kirishima quietly takes photos whilst Kaminari squeals. Sero is grinning widely. Most of the class is either happy or horrified. Aizawa looks ready to blow.

-Katsuki scoffs and asks Lillian how she didn't notice.

-She raises an eyebrow and says she could ask him the same thing.

-It's not a pairing anyone expected, but the smile Katsuki is sporting tells them all it'll work out.

Soulmate singing:

-You can hear your soulmate when they sing. Katsuki doesn't sing much. He hums, at most. Singing is dumb as hell. And he's... Not the best at it. Even though he's good at everything.

-ish

-His soulmate sings a lot. Katsuki has truly never minded. Especially seeing as they don't suck. Singing consistently since they were both kids, her voice has grown stronger and more in pitch over the years. Sometimes, she really gets into it.

-Katsuki definitely doesn't mind. Sometimes he'll zone out while doing his homework after school, listening to her belt out broadway tunes. She likes those. Katsuki has learned to enjoy them too.

-He studies hard to get into UA. His soulmate sings every sort of genre, from rock, to country, to pop. Broadway, rap, and alternative. Punk, indie, and even some metal. It's a healthy mix that keeps him invested.

-He gets into UA. There's a girl there he's drawn to. He walks next to her a few times on their way home. She's shy and quiet, so he's not sure why he feels compelled to be around her.

-She makes new friends and he can't walk with her anymore. Katsuki doesn't care. He lays down in bed at night listening to his soulmate sing a song called Bitch Lasagna. She sounds more hesitant with her words than he's ever heard her. He thinks maybe she's singing in front of, or with, someone else.

-He doesn't know how to feel about that, exactly.

-His days pass. When he recognizes a song she's singing, sometimes he hums along. Time passes peacefully, and his playlist grows with every new song his soulmate sings.

-He doesn't place in the Sports Festival. He's not that upset. He's acclimated to the idea that his classmates may be stronger, and that he has room to grow. His soulmates voice calms him in the evenings when he feels his angriest, and he thinks.

-He doesn't want to be awful and angry when he finally finds his soulmate.

-The end of the sports festival brings new friends, and soon he can't stop texting Lillian. She's wittier and bolder than he ever would've assumed. He likes her, he decides.

-They become close faster than he'd thought they would. She's funny, and a quick thinker, and smart. When internships start, be finds himself watching her gulp down some spicy ramen without flinching. He has to smile a little, feeling nervous for now reason at all as he watches her.

-Lillian is going to do a concert event with Mic to end her internship. He makes Chad drive them, watching as she hesitantly picks a song. She picks some song from a kids show. Present Mic let's her take the stage.

-The voice that echoes from the speakers when she sings along is familiar. He hears it in the back of his head, echoing. His heart manages to drop and soar at the same time.

-His cheeks go red and he grins wider than he ever has in his entire life.

-Lillian is his soulmate. And looking at her, her long hair whipped by the wind and her eyes shining, he decides that it's the best outcome he ever could've received.

Hey! Asking, if there is one thing you’ve been waiting for to write, what’s the number one arc/scenario/scene that you loved to write the most?? :00 I love your content! Please take care of yourself! Because we stan good mental health in this house here and yEAH- And as a writer, and getting back into bnha, you’re one (if not, my favorite of all time) writer! Your writing has inspired and influenced my own writing style a lot! It’s been really fun reading your stories!! :DD

Hey! I'm really glad you like my writing so much 💙 your support means tons. As for your question—

It very much depends on the book! For Feral, I'm really enjoying writing everything that comes before UA. In Freeze Frame, the upcoming internships are something I'm very much looking forward to! For Mind Boggled, Kamino Ward and Harper's backstory are the events I'm really itching to write. It very much depends on the story and characters, I think. If any writers see this, what are you guy's favorite arcs to write in BNHA? I'm curious!
