BNHA VERSES; THE KITSUNE

(Since all of these characters are connected rather closely, this post will serve to sum up the verse for all of them!)

Inari Yoko is the Head Superintendent of the Hero Public Safety Commission's Internal Investigations Department. Her job focuses around on investigation into heroes, hero agencies, and the commission itself; a regulating body that can enforce rules and dole out criminal and civil punishments. On paper, her quirk is "Bewitch", a fragrance that turns aggressors to admirers. Truth be told, though, the power of "Bewitch" is much stronger-- and not even her real quirk.

Inari's real quirk is Consumption; she acquires the quirks of people by eating them, although each new acquired ability worsens the gnawing hunger she feels daily. Bewitch is one of these quirks, as is Fire-Breathing and Nine-Tailed Beast.

Inari is also not her real name. Her true name is Ii, and she was, at some point, the elder sister of Rikiya Yotsubashi, although denied her birthright. As she grew older and realized the MLA would always cast her in his shadow, she decided to leave-- after eating her betrothed.

Now, as the Head of Internal Investigations, she maintains a double life; on top, a respected member of public safety. Behind, though, she rules a criminal enterprise that consists of "erasing incidents" and extorting criminals and naughty heroes from the commission's eye. Very few organizations last long under her eye, whether raided officially or off the record by her subordinates. That being said, as of now she avoids encroaching on the affairs of All for One; a fragile but long-lasting truce out of respect for another well-established villain empire.

Nobimaru (or, known to the public as "Homuramaru Nowaki") is her assistant; a strange and unreadable individual. To the public, he's her assistant and a "mascot" of sorts; only ever appearing as a 13 year old boy with black fox ears and a tail, which is assumed to be his quirk. His colleagues at the commission are under the same impression, as are those outside of a select few in their criminal affairs. His true self is an adult; a young man with long legs and a much looser way of speaking. His real quirk is Kitsune, a powerful combination of shapeshifting and flame. He frequently shifts between age and gender and species to achieve his goals, and rarely breaks his enigmatic facade.

Nobimaru would have been the perfect Meta Liberation soldier; a fact that led his disillusioned mother to send him away down the mountain as a young child. This would then be covered up and shifted to frame a senior member of the army with being responsible for the disappearance (and presumed death) of a member of the Yotsubashi family, allowing for newer executives to fill in and soothe political upset in the group. His mother is Inari Yoko; a fact she is unaware of, given his efforts to change his hair color and physical age when she is present. As far as she's concerned, he is simply a very capable assistant.

In later-canon threads, Nobimaru will be missing his right arm, having replaced it with... something. Damaged in a skirmish in which Shigaraki was involved, Nobimaru's hand became useless, and so he chose to rip the whole arm off and replaced it with what I will tentatively call an "experimental technology" prosthetic. It is not safe and appears to be actively harming him. But Nobimaru is the type of person who will damage his body in pursuit of his goals.

Hinata Haruka (a woman who rarely uses her given name at all and finds it odd to do so) is a member of the Special Investigation Unit, a group put together by Inari and Nobimaru to do their dirty work, especially with the amount of activity springing up in the villain world. They hold the title of "Investigators", but rarely do any actual work for the commission. A fact which works well for her; she hates filling out paperwork in the slightest.

Hinata has a rather useful quirk: Solar Flare, which produces a flame so hot and concentrated that, when channeled properly, can cut cells so finely it doesn't damage them. She uses this in conjunction with a giant nata knife, severing steel beams and limbs alike.

Her specialty in dismemberment isn't entirely of her own will, or even born out of a particular desire for violence-- her partner, a man named Robara, has the quirk Glue Gun; which allows him to turn any organic material he produces into a transforming "glue" he can use to do anything from healing injuries to making weapons. The problem is more to do with him, though-- a mass murderer and serial assailant who, when left alone, will tear people limb from limb and rearrange them into "crafts". Hinata's skill allows them to re-assemble people without permanent injury or loss of function, unlike his "messy edges".

She has been "dating" Robara since they were 5, having befriended him despite his odd tendencies. She went over to play at his house, and found him sleeping on a bed made from his own mother. Horrified, she held him, and he mistook this as a confession of love and responded in kind.

She took him home, and covered up that he was the cause of the incident, and her family took care of him. As time went on, though, and his violent behavior worsened, her family began to express a concern about them dating. This would lead to Robara threatening to kill Hinata's family on multiple occasions, and out of desperation, she left home at 15 to run away with him. They would seen then enter a life of crime, which a decade later would result in the two of them being recruited for the SIU.

Hinata believes Robara is incapable of taking care of himself and can't help his "urges", a fact he is more than happy to emphasize and manipulate in order to keep her from leaving him. In truth, she despises killing, and would have liked to have been a school teacher.

Hiiiii, I'm not the anon that asked but I am a Nobimaru fucker nonetheless and I am so happy you love him too (LOVE YOUR FANART OF HIM), I would love to put in a request for him if that's alright for you: kiss headcanons with the Nobimaru, please! (adult form ofc :D❤️)

HI AND YUUUUUUHHHH IM SO PUMPED FOR THIS THANK YOU FOR COMING THROUGH WITH A NOBIMARU REQUEST

Nobimaru Headcanons:

I bet he kisses like the devil.

In the dark corners, in broad daylight the moments where no one's paying attention. Always with a bit of sharp teeth on your bottom lip. Always with a slight, knowing smile burning against your senstive skin, as if sharing a little, delightful secret with you as he tastes. Always with that sly tongue, licking at the seam of your mouth and its corner, flicking away the bit of drool and the last vestiges of your common sense, along with all the lessons your mama ever instilled in you.

(so when he oh so pleasantly whispers, open up— you do. damn you, you do it. it’s the sweetest temptation.)

And how he runs his hand up the column of your throat, coaxing you to stretch, to expose more of your neck as you blearily blink up at him, drunken with headiness, his other hand kneading the middle of your back in comforting motions. And, oh, how he hotly sucks and puts down his mark in obscene bruises and teethprints against soft, unmarred flesh, practically purring at how your hands helplessly tug at his hair, brushing over his ears, his nape, and his shoulders. (Yes, like that. More of that please, you lovely girl.) And how, then, he pauses long enough to let you remember life in the horrible absence of his touch, before tugging down the collar of your shirt to bite lower, lick lower, your chest heaving faster and deeper, your unoccupied mouth falling open, and

and that's when he pulls away— sudden enough for it to feel as if a bucket of cold water had been dumped over your head— with a reluctant smile and gives you some sort of cheery, bullshit apology about needing to be some other place, leaving you to hang back and cope with the gouging hollowness of jilted satisfaction all by yourself.

He kisses like that and it's absolutely infuriating.

He's a bastard with a rotten personality, this man you're letting put his lips on you. Nobimaru comes and goes as he pleases, mercilessly teasing you, getting you all riled up and pouty and huffing and puffing, ready to kill him, before having the nerve to coax you into wanting to kiss him. Aren't I cute? He'll ask with wide, innocent eyes that you shouldn't buy into. Aren't you tempted to kiss me? Just this once. Just one little kiss.

And it's that one little kiss that leaves you miserably aching for more.

Or when he silently slinks up to your defenseless neck, takes advantage of that lovely little spot just under your ear, softly brushes his mouth there just to hear a surprised squeak. Or, when he takes your fingers and presses kisses that might appear polite and gentlemanly– if it weren't accompanied by the barest hints of cheeky teeth. Or, when he presses your foreheads together, his hair tickling your head, his lips so, so close, peering into your face with smiling eyes that make your chest feel so full, like bursting, until you’re forced to close those last few centimeters for the relief of his lips.

You might think he's toying with you, that this is some sort of play that he takes perverse pleasure in— but for Nobimaru? Really, it all just makes him loathe the old bitch all the more. Because how many times has he had to flame out the rats put to the task of tailing him, shut down the loose mouths ready to run off about you to their mistress? Too many moments he had spent in missions sent by Inari that he would've much rather spent pissing you off and licking it all better. He can’t stay for too long or he’ll attract unwanted attentions on you, but the in-between moments he has with you are times he looks forward to more than you know.
