Ok sooo Astro boy Phantom of the Opera (kinda) au ✨

SO. Since 03 Tenma pretty much IS the Phantom (and I started shipping the old men real bad) I started cooking this

The story is that Ochan is a medic and Tenma a cientist. They're old friends, but then Tobio dies (as he does) and Tenma isolates himself and makes a pact (with a demon or spirit ig?) to trade half of his soul to bring his son back (which leaves some scars or stuff hence the mask)

The half soul is used to make a new soul for Tobio's body, restored with mechanical prosthetics by his father. But the new soul isn't Tobio. It's a new life, a new person, who just carries his memories. Tenma acts overprotective and possessive of him, hiding them from the world, so the kid eventually runs away and finds Ochanomizu, seeking help. Ochan names him "Astro" since he loves the sky and stars so much and cares for the kid.

Anyway cut to Ochan spending like 80k words knocking some sense on his problematic boyfriend's head, Tenma ruins everything then learns to value his son's life etc etc and I hope they all become a happy family the end

Shouto and his friendship with some of his classmates, headcanons ~  

note: this have been on my wip list forever, and I really wanna write something soft rn, so... yeah! also, if a friendship you enjoy isn't here, it's not because I don't like it, I just might have to do a part 2 <3

when Shouto started at UA, he hadn't had a real friend in his whole life, and frankly, at that point, he was okay with that

there's something about how you don't know how to miss something you've never had

but suddenly, Shouto has a few friends

he didn't even mean for it to happen, it just did

and oddly enough, it kept happening

before he knew it, he was spending one-on-one time with almost everyone in his class

and the oddest part of it all was that he enjoyed it a whole lot

some of them made sense to him, like with Mido-, no, Izuku, and Ochako, Iida, and even Bakugo, who he either had a lot in common with, or spent a lot of time with early on

others made no sense to him what so ever, but he enjoyed them all the same

like his "self-care nights" with Mina and Ochako

he wasn't sure why they kept inviting him, but he enjoyed it too much to ask

he enjoyed how they offer to paint his nails (he always says yes), and he thinks they both have very interesting thoughts and goals for being Heroes

and they always help filling him in on internet slang and pop-culture stuff, and never make fun of him for not knowing

the same goes for Sero and Denki, they'll occasionally have a chuckle when he asks very seriously about these silly stuff, but they both think Shouto is the coolest guy ever (he has no idea tho), and they listen to him talk about training and stuff like he's a genuis

Kirishima tries to help him with the pop-culture stuff too, but Shouto have learned that Kirishima is sometimes as clueless as him, he is just clueless with confidence

so Shouto always thanks him for his help, but does a quality check with Mina, Ochako, Denki, Sero or even Izuku

when Denki finds out Sero and Shouto have these little manga nights where they trade mangas and discuss them etc, he decides he wants something fun to do with Shouto, too!

he tries a few things, but it turns out they both really like drawing

so they take a couple of courses together online, tries different methods, coal, acrylic, pencils, oil paint, yanno, just a bunch

while Shouto isn't interested in eating much other food than soba (he does it, but out of necessities), but when he sees Sato bake one day, suddenly he's very interested in baking

it's kind of like art, you see?

Sato is a little shy about it at first, but after a while they have a real good time together

to be fair, Shouto had a good time the whole time, he couldn't tell Sato was shy at all lol

one day he hears that Izuku, Tsu and Koda is going to volunteer at a local animal shelter, and when Izuku invites him, he's very happy to join them

but while Shouto expected kittens and puppies, it turned out this was a wildlife centre

at first he was a little awkward, he knew how to handle kittens and puppies, but raccoons, badgers and foxes???

but quickly, he and Koda starts helping this little raccoon baby, and Shouto is delighted

not only is the thing fascinating, and cute, and happy to see him, it purrs when he cuddles it!

so now, the four of them do this every couple of weeks, or more when they have the time

one day, Shouto is in the common baths pretty late, and he's surprised to find Shoji there as well

he's used to finding others there at this time, but what surprises him is that Shoji isn't wearing his mask

Shouto isn't sure if he should mention it, but he's curious, so he does (the convo can be read at the end of this post)

after Shouto tells Shoji that he has a "nice face", Shoji actually starts taking his mask off sometimes when he and Shouto is alone.

Shouto doesn't know it, but Shoji is planning to talk to him about it some more, and is actually so grateful for that blunt, but honest conversation

Shouto isn't sure how it works, but sometimes he and Bakugo do homework and study together, and while Bakugo sometimes growls when Shouto mentions it, he is pretty sure it means they're friends now, because Bakugo is sure not denying it

and that's good enough in Shouto's book

one time in their second year, Shouto gets sent to Hawks' agency with Tokoyami when Endeavor is our of town, and Shouto is very happy to get someone else to study for a while

Tokoyami tries to warn him what Hawks can be like, that even though he's much better at including Tokoyami in the work now, and that they do more background work after Hawks' wings were injured in the war, Shouto is still very excited

but fifteen minutes in, Hawks has already made ten jokes about grilled wings, called Tokoyami his "lil' bro", and shown Shouto the little Badtz-Maru plush he refers to as "Tiny-yami" and Shouto is just like

"...is he always like this?"

and Tokoyami just keeps doing his work while going; "yep."

and maybe Shouto understands Tokoyami a bit more, after that

did he learn a lot from this work study? sure.

did he also have some fun while doing? yes, he did.

does he also feel like he aged 50 years during the study? he sure as hell does.

Shouto and Shoji convo: Shouto: You're not wearing your mask. Shoji: No, not right now. Shouto: ...You have a nice face. Shoji: You do not have to lie, Todoroki. Shouto: You can call me Shouto. And I'm not lying, I hate lying. Shoji: Well, I know my face is not nice. It makes kids cry. Shouto: A lot of things makes children cry. My face does sometimes, too. Shoji: I didn't know that. I'm sorry. Shouto: That's not your fault. And I try not to take it personally. *silence* Shouto: Well, I'm going shower now, but I meant what I said. You're face is nice. Shoji: Thank you, Todo- Shouto: You can call me Shouto. Shoji: ...Shouto. Thank you, Shouto.

I am feeling pretty okay right now. Like. I'm exhausted and I hate leaving the house and I'm very stressed about covid but I also feel guilt. But I'm okay. It was an alright day for the most part. 

I did feel weird stress over time though. I didn't sleep well. James woke up to get ready for work and I couldn't fall back asleep for what felt like forever. He was trying so hard to be quiet but that was just making it worse. Not his fault. I was able to say goodbye to him before his first day of training for this new job. And that was important to me. To say goodbye. I dont like when we don't. Doesn't happen often but still.

I got out of bed around 9. I got washed and dressed. My hair looked cute but felt dirty. I had some stuff I wanted to do today. But it just felt like their wasn't time. 

I had my meeting at 11. So I got breakfast and played animal crossing for a while to find a new villager for the island. I went to like 10 islands and there was only one acceptable villager but I decided to pass. And then I came upon the villager I was replacing!! And was so annoyed that I would have to come back to the game after work. 

And then it was meeting time. And it was so nice to see Alexi even if it was over video. We talked for about an hour. I am going to be doing art again. And I will get to help with theme and homestead so I'm pretty pumped. I have to clean up my Pinterest for ideas and share that soon. It was nice to hear some nice things about myself though. And just talk about what's happening and what the plan is right now. It's nice to have something to look forward too. 

Though it makes me want to pack now and that is silly. 

I had a little lunch and then headed to work. It was a very very windy day. And when I got there I found out that my certificates were all missing so when I got home I would have to track down copies. Which is very annoying. But I was pretty sure I had everything so it was all good. But it made me annoyed.

That's been hard. The last week just feeling on edge and feeling annoyed. I'm trying my best to hold it together but it's hard.

And today felt weird. Because the office staff was pushing the make sure they take everything home,, pack things up,, clean the rooms thing. But we're supposed to be at this site until the 12th. So now there is a rumor were closing earlier. Which like. Whatever. I barely want to be there. But it's not cool to not really share what's going on. Well have to see. 

Only half the kids came in today though. And that was alright. I was with 2nd grade and they were very emotional. Finishing missing assignments with tears. Yelling about the rules of uno. Just big emotions.

But we also had fun. Played musical chairs with expert mode. Colored. Crocheted. Joined the biggie kids to play hide and seek. And it was a nice time. 

But my foot hurt. And I was tired. And just kind of beat up. It was really nice to be done I stayed a little after to help with the last of the kids. Let the kids draw on my tablet. And then as the sun went down I headed home. 

The moon was very very big. Made me smile. I got home and James ordered pizza. He got me a flamingo plushie and I love it. And we hung out while I figured out the certificate situation. But soon he had his game with his friends and I went to look for a new villager. I got the clown sheep. Very exciting. And then went and worked on art. 

I made a clay slab. And took a shower. And now I am just laying in bed drinking chocolate milk. I'm really tired. And i really hope I can sleep easier tonight. 

I hope you all have a great night tonight. Take care of yourselves. And each other.

*JUST IMAGINE WHICHEVER MEMBER YOU'D LIKE*

🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤

"Hey baby?"

You hear your boyfriend call out from the kitchen. You were in the bathroom trying to get your hair into a suitable hairdo and fix your smudged makeup- you were way too tired last night to take it off and too lazy now to do a whole new face of makeup.

"Yes love?" You call back then grunt in annoyance when the mascara under your right eye stubbornly refuses to come off, resulting in looking like a black eye.

"Do you have any ch-.....-ies..?"

You missed the last part of what he said, you squint, trying to listen harder.

"I'm sorry love but I did not hear you at all! Can you say it again?" You call out to him.

"I said do you ha-....-ny......-ies?"

Oh for pete's sake.... you sigh heavily and drop your tired arm, then apologize again.

"Look, baby I'm sorry, I'll be out in a second ok? I just can't hear what you're saying."

You grab another Q-tip and put more makeup remover on it then successfully wipe the stubborn mascara off the under part of your right eye.

"Aha! finally....now I'll just..." You mutter under your breath while you pull out your mascara wand and start refreshing your eyelashes.

"Baby?"

You jump and poke yourself in the eye when your boyfriend suddenly appears in the open bathroom door right next to you.

"Ahh! Ouch! Ow, ow, gosh dang it."

Your boyfriend immediately looks regretful and apologizes profusely.

"Sorry baby! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to scare you, are you ok?"

You giggle and kiss him on the cheek to show him he doesn't have to worry. Then you try to keep your eye from twitching as you fan it slightly, it hadn't hurt that bad but it made your eyes water and you really didn't need that right now.

"What was it that you needed Honey?"

Your boyfriend scrunched his eyebrows together in thought for a moment, making you giggle, and then he snapped his fingers.

"Ah yes! I was wondering if you had any...uh....Chocopies...?" He draws out the words slowly and his eyes dart around, looking anywhere but your face.

You laugh at his adorable expression, the fact that he was embarrassed was so cute. Unfortunately, you didn't have the snack he was obsessed with recently.

"Aw, no love, I ran out a few days ago. I'm sorry."

His face fell, but a second later he smiled and waved it off, saying he didn't want one anyway.

"I mean, I should probably be careful of how many of those I eat....ya know?" He chuckled.

You booped his nose and turned back to keep fixing your makeup and as you did you said nonchalantly,

"Hmm, how about we go and get some from the store? I needed to get some groceries anyway, I have like, no food. And a Chocopie sounds amazing right now." You wink at him through the mirror and smile as his face lights up.

_________________

"Careful baby, here." Your boyfriend grabs your hand and steadies you when an older man shoves past- jostling you on his way inside the subway.

You smile gratefully at him and squeeze his hand affectionately.

On a nice day, you two would walk all the way to the store; since it wasn't too far away. But it was hot outside and neither of you wanted to walk in the muggy heat, and standing on the sidewalk for who knows how long trying to get a taxi, wouldn't be much better. So the subway it is.

Subways were always cramped and uncomfortable; especially when rude people would knock into you without a second thought.

You feel a warm strong arm wrap around you protectively and pull you close. Leaning into your boyfriend's chest, you forget about the fact that you're crammed into a tiny space, standing uncomfortably. Your boyfriend kisses you on the top of your head and breathes in the scent of your new shampoo.

"Ohhhh, what scent is that? I love it."

You giggle and kiss his cheek, "it's cherry blossom, I saw it and wanted to try it out. I'm glad you like it."

"I do!.....hmm, but you know what scent would be even better?"

"No, what?"

He bends down and whispers in your ear, his soft breath tickling you.

"Chocopie scent...."

You pull back and smack him on the chest lightly, laughing at him.

"Oh my gosh, you're insane!"

"Why?? It would smell delicious!"

You roll your eyes, "you're definitely addicted to those things.."

He just smiles and winks at you before pulling you back into his protective hug.

________________

Finally off the subway and heading into your favorite grocery store, you feel a blast of blissfully cool air hit you right when you walk through the automatic doors.

"Ahh, oh my gosh this feels so good...just wait a second.."

You stand under the air vent that is responsible for blowing welcome coldness onto your sweaty face; your eyes closed in content. You don't realize that your boyfriend is watching you, smiling like an idiot.

Eventually you sigh and walk further into the store, grabbing a hand basket.

He follows you and just giggles at the way you walk; bouncing up and down a little and swinging the basket.

I love that girl.

"Come on slow poke~" you motion him to come catch up with you.

He takes a few long strides and catches up quickly. Then slips his hand into your free hand, entwining your fingers.

You smile at him and squeeze his hand, then start swinging your joined hands between the two of you. He just plays along and tries to hold back his laughs.

"Y/n? Ya know something?"

"What is it?"

"You're the cutest thing in the world and I love you."

"wha- I, I mean, ah haha" you stutter and a blush starts creeping up your neck. He just smiles at you and continues swinging your linked hands.

"What's the matter? Embarrassed?~"

"No, I just, thank you..... Iloveyoutoo.."

You rush out the last sentence and lift your hand that's still holding his to cover your face.

"I told you it was aisle fifteen...."

"You did not you little liar you said thirteen!"

"Uh uh, I distinctly said fifteen...you just didn't listen."

"Well I distinctly heard, thirteen."

You pout and cross your arms. He definitely said thirteen. He rolls his eyes playfully and pokes your cheek gently.

"Well either way, we're at fifteen now so let's go get that ramen you wanted. Sound good?"

You humph and walk into aisle fifteen, your boyfriend only a step behind you. You reach the end of the aisle and turn around again; confusion written all over your face. Then you turn around again, then again and start going back to the other side of the aisle that you started at.

"Baby what are you doing?"

Your boyfriend follows you and gently takes your arm. "Where are you going?"

"It's not here.."

"Huh?"

"The ramen, H/n....it isn't in this aisle."

"oh....they must've moved it..."

"Or you were wrong."

"Hey don't blame me!! You come here all the time, shouldn't you know where the stuff you get is?"

"Ugh, whatever. They must have switched everything around."

"That's what I said!"

"Shush, don't bother me, I need to concentrate."

The store did happen to switch a few things around, which you learned from the employee you asked for help.

Going around the store was difficult because they changed stuff, but also because the man-child that was attached at your hip; pulling stuff off the shelves to examine them and ask if you wanted "this too" or "this looks interesting, you want it?" He was obviously bored and trying not to think about his Chocopies that had yet to get a seat in the now stuffed hand basket.

You loved him to absolute pieces and you weren't bothered by it one bit, it just happened to make the trip last a bit longer.

It went on like this for a while, you picking out some rice, him asking if you wanted this weird looking rice because the container had a silly picture on it, you agreeing because it was too cute to say no.

Picking out vegetables, and seeing him come over with two handfuls of mushrooms for you to see if you wanted them. Needless to say, you got the mushrooms.

At one point you were grabbing another spatula and saw him looking over some weird cooking utensils; his eyes glued to a strange plastic thing....what even was that? A lemon juicer? Or a garlic peeler? Maybe it was a potato shredder.....

He started to reach out and grab it but you called to him before he could bring it to your attention.

"Hey, H/n! Let's go to the snacks now!"

He looked up quickly and nodded; coming over to you and completely forgetting the strange object.

You took his hand and started walking briskly, you had to get him to the snack aisle before he convinced you to buy the whole store because you just couldn't say no.

Finally in his favorite aisle, his face lit up and he started walking down; looking along the shelves for his new obsession.

While he scoured the shelves you look around for something salty to snack on along with the Chocopies. You settle on some chips that you both liked and a small bag of dried squid for whenever you crave it randomly.

When you look up again you see him hurrying toward you with a box of the special treat clutched in his arms.

_____________________

"Ok, we're checking out now...is there anything else you need Y/n?"

"Umm, I don't think so....let me check everything off. Pls tell me if there's something missing."

"Alright." He takes the basket and waits for you to start saying what you got.

"Rice?"

"Check."

"Vegetables?"

"Check."

"Milk?"

"Check."

"Eggs?"

"Check."

"Cheese?"

"Check."

"Seaweed?"

"Ok wait hold on..."

"What? Did I forget that? Dang it I thought I got it."

"No, no it's here. The word "check" is losing all meaning to me though." You laugh as your boyfriend shakes his head, trying to clear it. You guys finish listing out everything until you come to the snacks, but you had taken the basket back and were heading up to the cash register.

He follows closely behind and whispers in your ear,

"Chips?"

You laugh, "check!"

"Dried squid?"

"Check!"

"Chocopies?"

"Check!

"Hugs and cuddles?"

"Check!....wait what?"

He just laughs and hugs you from the back, walking with you to check out.

"I want hugs and cuddles too." You can hear the pout in his voice.

"You can have them when we get home, with your Chocopies too, hm?"

He nods happily.

__________________

Back in the comfort of your apartment after the long day of shopping; you quickly put everything away while he helps you, then you flop onto the couch.

He comes into the living room carrying the box of Chocopies and the chips you got. He sits down next to you and offers you the snacks, you smile tiredly and grab a Chocopie and a handful of chips, putting them on your tummy so you didn't have to hold them while you ate.

He munches away happily and pulls you into his chest.

"Thank you baby."

You look over at him and wipe a crumb from the corner of his mouth.

"What for? You paid for the snacks, so thank you, love."

He shrugs and laughs, "thank you for going with me and for dealing with me at the store."

You laugh and cuddle into his side. Breathing deeply you start to relax; hearing the steady thumping of his heartbeat.

"I love you, H/n."

You feel him kiss your temple. Then start stroking your hair softly.

"I love you too, little cutie."
