Before the U.A Attack[Tatsumaki Omake]
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA6IQdpERuV
Tatsumaki: “Annoying.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BIzWAZfwh
With a simple finger, the quirk beast that was wreaking havoc in the street was torn apart by a small tornado.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CMkA1R84p
“Wow, that must be a new record. Not even property damage this time. Good job.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ZV0e3H3WN
Tatsumaki: “Shut it, Arashi.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBdaAr8feH
She turns to her… acquaintance and the one who runs her agency. His marketing efforts and efficient management are what allow the whole thing to work without her. And to think he used to be just a simple office worker.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHEeaGLlg2l
He was a pretty simple, if not a bit handsome, looking young man with black hair and a loose business suit.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXvwZF4iZEy
Tatsumaki: “Anyway, this was much easier than I expected. You said this was some dangerous beast. Couldn’t some other hero handle it?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCTyAQU97Y2
Arashi: “There were none nearby. I saw the beast. I gave you a call. You know how it is.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4scFDNmWXm
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, these heroes rely too much on us top 3. Especially me; just because I can fly doesn’t mean I have the time to solve every problem.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsdrnikcUB
Arashi: “Hey, I’m just the messenger. But if you want a day off, then I can arrange something. I’m sure several sidekicks would be willing to pick up the slack.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUlrzc2drY
Tatsumaki: “You do that.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCql8QtTFMq
And so it was done; thanks to Arashi, the next day was free. But there w a problem. She was getting bored. Yeah, it was fun to relax at home in her colorful pajamas at first. But it quickly lost its appeal.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4KstL2A6A8
Even if most things can’t challenge her, the few seconds of combat were still highlights of her typical workday. So to solve the problem, she called Arashi.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPiu0NlIYzK
Arashi: “Tatsumaki? Oh, you miss me already?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNOy9OdNVE
Tatsumaki: “Shut it, Arashi. Anyway, how’s the situation? Do you need me for something?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1ctlgEdf4
Arashi: “No, the city is pretty quiet right now. The pro heroes and sidekicks have dealt with any problems that did pop up. So don’t worry; nothing will ruin your free day.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWdkYN9SGl
Tatsumaki: “Hm… is that so?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHczt1omYR8
Arashi: “Sooooo, what are you wearing?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRd1SqTOyjt
She hung up and fought down the slight blush.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21wHa7EAoH
Tatsumaki: “He is so lucky he’s cu- I mean useful.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7yKIYkXD0
She sighs and lies back on the floor. Her fight against boredom continues, and for once, she doesn’t think she’ll win.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7N4KkM1CW
Tatsumaki: “I could visit Arashi, but… that will get complicated fast. I’m not in the mood for that.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29OosZMBs8
Tatsumaki: “Fubuki is busy with her agency, tch, like always. Izuku and Kiri are at school. I guess I can visit Mom.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvB3He080H
She prepares to get dressed and meet her but instead stops. A smile grows on her face.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaU0cT97nYd
Tatsumaki: “This might be a good excuse to test that out.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP96l2BUH5C
Out of all the abilities her brother has learned, teleportation is the coolest. She doesn’t really need to learn anything more than what she has already. Battles are easy enough as it is. But teleportation could save time and just be plain fun.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvsafJZqeQ
Besides, one of her favorite characters from an old manga she used to read as a kid could do it. Might as well try it; what’s the harm?
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrrsm7rXtCh
So she got up and placed two fingers on her forehead. First, she visualized the kitchen of her previous home. Then she willed her psychic power to turn her desire into reality.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWKwXn7Mqd
Either by bending space, breaking her down, and moving her elsewhere, or something else, whatever was easier.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBX2mb61Db0
After a moment of actual effort, she felt something happen and smiled. In the next instant, she was in the kitchen.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLaFoHQA9a3
But something was wrong, as proven by her mother doing a spit take with her tea. Tatsumaki felt weirdly… exposed. Didn’t take her long to understand why, then panic and teleport back home.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVxhGRMgR4
She grabbed her pajamas that were left behind and tried to calm her tomato face. A face that got more red when her phone went off. Not running from it, she answered.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpachoTvxjf
Tatsumaki: “…Yes.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMMzBkxysR
Inko: “Sweetie, did I see what I think I just saw?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQMpbJde51u
Tatsumaki: “… Would you believe me if I said no?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Em65YpKSt
Inko didn’t say anything, but managed to say everything.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfTBp2S2Ch
Tatsumaki: “Don’t tell Fubu or Izu.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW747Yju2bI
Inko: “Sweetie, it’s nothing to be ashamed of. I’m glad you’re trying new ways to use your quirk. Just… make sure to bring your clothes with you next time.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGSdaATP7M
Tatsumaki: “T-Thanks, mom, I’ll do that.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAjYDWiUrXu
She hung up and laid back on the ground after clothing herself. She sighed and accepted the fact she’d probably have to visit her guilty pleasure after all.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlgiQXqOVP
Tatsumaki: “Teleportation is overrated anyway.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgiVjTLM8X1

After the U.A Attack
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86n2aHqnfJ
“So far we have three villains that were leading this attack.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZTzbvrBB3
Detective Naomasa Tsukauchi explained to the gathered heroes in this meeting room. The ones present were Snipe, Vlad King, Midnight, Nezu, All Might, and of course Tatsumaki. Unlike everyone, else though, she was leaning against the wall near the window instead of sitting.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMUJ5UQuKz
She was ready to get out and find these villains as quickly as possible.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡog7sZalzdR
Naomasa: “First, Kurogiri, the villain that looked to be made of black mist. The only solid part was a large metal device around where his neck would be. He has a warping quirk.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTXTou9GKs
All Might: “A group of villains with someone like that can be very dangerous.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEAQhGCEbe
Naomasa: “Second, Tomura Shigaraki. His quirk seems to be the ability to disintegrate anything he touches. As proven by Aizawa’s broken arm. I would assume he’s the leader, but the last-minute appearance of Azrael throws that into question.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINaVybKz8r
Everyone, minus All Might and Tatsumaki, shivers at the memory of that man. That doesn’t mean All Might doesn’t feel anything when remembering him. But he doesn’t want to explain his connection to Azrael, not yet anyway. And everyone who sneaked a glance at him understood that.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmmkqhBp6B
Midnight: “Can’t believe I’m saying this about a handsome man, but I hope I never meet him again.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmIaCHQKk7
Naomasa: “What’s worse is that we have no info on him. Azrael is clearly an alias.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnR27S0gauS
Nezu: “The angel of death… ”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTNqsKudtln
Snipe: “You can say that again. Looking at him was like staring down the barrel of a rifle.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgGE9nT76Tp
Naomasa: “Based on that, I’d imagine the only ones that should face him are the top 3 pros.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIpzCRIQoG
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, I’ll take care of them all by myself. I just need a location.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMGWDPumpw
Naomasa: “Sad to say, with a warping quirk user on their side, they could be anywhere.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRwdNrB5Sp
Snipe: “So, long story short, we got nothin to go on. We didn’t even do much damage to any of them. Well, aside from that strategist.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡer5ImPPH6S
Midnight: “Oh yeah, what about him? What do we know?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2sL8uZk7C
Naomasa: “Apotheosis. Based on Ms. Fubuki’s statements and previous cases involving him, he definitely qualifies as a strategist. Apparently, he was even the cause of that train bomb incident a few days ago.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbYCM7qZDb
Vlad: “That is a sick man; there were kids on that train! If it wasn’t for Blizzard and Tornado… the amount of damage he could have caused… ”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdlrAay7Au
Midnight: “What’s his quirk?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4UCHJuX4Kk
Naomasa: “Unknown, Ms. Fubuki insists he used only technology in their fight.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQ8qwsdUn3
Tatsumaki: “Then he shouldn’t be a problem when I find him. I can easily rip the gear off of him.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBYLz64WJz
Naomasa: “If you find him. And who knows how you’ll fare against his Psychic Disruptor.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYepAdsu5gn
Snipe: “Something he made with you and your family in mind. I wonder why he seems so focused on you.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjWYfXcB3z
Tatsumaki: “Simple, he’s scared of me. Hmph, I don’t blame him. His little plan wouldn’t have worked if I was there.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlm4ogQQwej
Naomasa: “Which makes his plans all the more dangerous. He can work around powerful obstacles and come up with countermeasures.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkomjRO4mlI
Vlad: “The longer he’s out there, the harder it will be to deal with him and this league of villains.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPgjxcCe0L
Nezu: “That’s not the most disturbing thing about him, is it, Tsukauchi?
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9oiIYCOXfK
Naomasa: “No… it’s his possible age. Based on everything we’ve gathered, he seems even younger than the students. By a year or two.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuh1HI5epvT
The room grew quiet at that revelation. A villain that smart yet barely a teenager.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvTlZsXxZy
Nezu: “How sad, that someone so young turned to a life of villainy. Despite how terrifying Azrael may be, I am more concerned with this villain. Especially when you consider what name he chose.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Dq4Euo9MG
Midnight: “Why?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlkMgpaMZ3W
Nezu: “Because it means the elevation of a person to divine status, essentially becoming a god.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq33EThRRJ9
Naomasa: “So this kid is incredibly arrogant and egotistical to give himself such a title.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcmv2k7vdS
All Might: “Most villains are. I once fought a guy who referred to himself as a destroyer of worlds. He wasn’t much of one when all it took was two good punches to knock him out.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEALp64tsB4
Nezu: “Perhaps, but I have a feeling that his genius can get him close enough to his goals to be a serious threat. I, more than anyone, know just how dangerous a sharp mind can be.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWyqLl4cwHA
Tatsumaki: “You worry too much.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFMEjuUX0S
Nezu: “Perhaps.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZK0YWfmFgl
All Might: “What about the last one, the one young Midoriya fought?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpWuVG6UUR
Naomasa: “Well… as you all know… there wasn’t anything left of him. Ms. Fubuki and Midoriya made sure of it.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefYwzI4BEc
Vlad: “But what I want to know is how? Based on what Aizawa said, this creature had strength comparable to All Might’s.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8zi1f3KVS
All Might: “Yeah, and taking a punch from young Tae is no easy feat.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡah0tyIilSd
Despite the dire situation, Tatsumaki let a smile slip. Pride filled her heart to know that her brother, and especially her sister, was able to beat such a monster. She knew Fubuki had more power within her.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHQfXjhlWu
But then the smile faded when she remembered what that victory almost cost them. Izuku had to use his fire again, and despite not showing it, she could sense Fubuki was past her limit. It’s a miracle she could still walk home.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulL3PhKhDe
If even one variable was different… she would have lost them. So instead of lingering on that feeling of pride, she focused on her protective instinct. The one that will help find these villains and put this matter to rest.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAggYqMKhQ
Naomasa: “We don’t know how they did it. Midoriya is vague about it, and Ms. Fubuki came near the end, so she can’t tell us much. Todoroki is also a bit vague. Whatever happened is mostly a mystery.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqnriAtQKkW
Vlad: “Hmmm, I don’t like it. What are they hiding?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVT2mKhKNZh
Tatsumaki: “If they want to keep it vague, let them. You know the name, Nomu, and you know that it’s an artificial human and has multiple quirks. That’s enough.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewo0Cjh5sw
Naomasa: “I agree, it’s worrying, but nothing we should concern ourselves over.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrB1U5BwZa
Midnight: “But wasn’t one of the quirks observed regeneration? Based on Todoroki’s report, the Nomu had lost an arm and couldn’t regenerate it like everything else. Tornado, can your brother stop regeneration quirks?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5Veje2r18
Tatsumaki: “Not that I know of, but why does it matter? It would only be a good thing if he can do something like that if another Nomu shows up.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGryDkFTcEt
Midnight: “But aren’t you curious about what your brother is hiding and why?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcv6fAfDWpv
Tatsumaki: “No, I trust my brother. Now, I would suggest you stop asking these questions, Midnight.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WI3DjfK7n
The two ladies glared at each other for a moment before All Might coughs to snap them out of it.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdt65NpLH3
All Might: “We should get back on track.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVTnoIMFcp
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, you do that. I got what I needed.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gIUNIrLwk
Tatsumaki opened the window next to her and flew out in search of her prey.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQq7Mvdu7qs
Midnight: “Ugh, tell me why we put up with her again.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡivm8iZIQwJ
Snipe: “Ha, you’re just jealous Tatsumaki and her sister beat you in the most attractive female heroes ranking.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7MedsDGrY
Midnight: “N-No! But let it be known that she doesn’t deserve that high of a placement. Her sister I get though, her body is like a work of art, and she knows how to dress.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkl5edTepl
All Might smiled at the banter but also looked at the window where Tatsumaki left. He can only hope she doesn’t work herself to death. She’s not the only one concerned about what happened. She doesn’t have to carry that burden alone.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhPcCtt8IN
All Might: ‘If only I was at my prime…’
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdtNuzIyBc
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4AXJxe6ofR
The school took a week off after the attack, and Inko is beyond worried. First, it was that talk with her daughter that didn’t end very well. Next, it was the strange behavior of Kiri and Izuku.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEt6P0FVwlO
She understands that they would be shaken by the attack, but there’s something else wrong.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VwlVkQRgn
Kiri doesn’t sleep in Izuku’s room anymore. When she first did that, Inko was a bit concerned but quickly brushed it off. Kiri just wanted to stick close to her big brother. Nothing wrong with that.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhznQVzo9cF
No, what’s wrong is when she suddenly stops and looks colder than usual. But that doesn’t compare to Izuku.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhaCGAgxel7
He doesn’t smile anymore and barely talks. His eyes are always far off and his mind elsewhere. Even when Kiri tries to interact with him, he doesn’t respond.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHx2p6ZmmOm
Tatsumaki won’t pick up her calls, and Fubuki is always busy. Enough is enough.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiDEHHST4F
It’s time for a family get-together.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjGdKl8LLy
While eating at the table in uncomfortable silence, Inko makes her move.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡak0tJp04fo
Inko: “Kiri, Izuku, I think it’s time for us to have a family get-together. It’s been too long since we all just… had fun. Well, it will be Kiri’s first time, which is even more reason to do it.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5lSs0Dcet
Izuku: “… I don’t know. I’m not in the mood.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPEb2NJl5h
Kiri: “…Nh.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytls7AK1u4
Inko: “Come on, it might help you two get past whatever you’re going through. At least it could take your mind off of it.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Civifnzxa
Izuku: “… I don’t think that’s possible.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRwxmntkuz
Inko: “Sweetie, please. I’m worried, and I… want to help. Just a few hours with your sisters.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh2oxwkljxV
Izuku looks at Kiri, who looks back. She smiles, trying to bring some warmth back into his life.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVak0AUPsb7
Kiri: “I would… like it. Can we?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYPsrrbbl3
Inko: “See? Kiri is willing to try it.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWCm4BjENh
Izuku: “…Okay.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYPHCssR6w
Inko: “Great! Now I just have to get Fubuki and Tatsumaki.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBurCHAebM
Inko grabs her phone and dials Fubuki first. Hopefully, she has the time.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnIelNwkjE
Fubuki: “Yes, Mom?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf50BRMedng
Inko: “We’re getting the family together for a nice relaxing day, just to have fun. What do you say?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQONYGNsKm
Fubuki: “I would love to, but-”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrN5ZenlK23
Inko: “Fubuki, please. I feel like… I’m losing you all. Izuku barely talks, and even Kiri can’t get to him.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnF2TVqLMql
Fubuki: “He what? What’s wrong with Izuku?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TslbgHYJG
Inko: “I don’t know, but it’s part of the reason why I’m doing this. I thought having some family fun could help. The other reason is… I miss you all.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlaemQytKe
Fubuki: “I… miss you too, Mom. Things have been hectic after the attack, and I have been meaning to take a break from training. Alright, I’ll come.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBUQKppln2
Inko: “Yes!”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsRdnYeXhG
Fubuki: “But how will you get Tatsu to come? She’s been… distant recently.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEkvJH7ixd
Inko: “It might be underhanded, but it’s for her own good.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡea0LvSvzR1
30 minutes later
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1fFco37i5
Tatsumaki bursts through the front door, ready to tear apart whoever dared to attack her home.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRu0CJ8dFtQ
Tatsumaki: “Izuku! Mom! Where-”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDhNiUHz8E
Instead of a crisis, she sees a normal living room with her whole family present.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcMm60Uu94r
Tatsumaki: “… What the fu-”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfrxSNdBzY7
Inko: “I’m sorry, sweetie, you wouldn’t pick up the phone when either I or Fubuki called you. So I had Izuku call you and simply say he needed help desperately.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEPLYOjTGqs
Tatsumaki closed her eyes and pinched her nose. Her heart was about to break out of her chest, and it was for nothing!?
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21uwrfdDqb
Tatsumaki: “…Why… why would you do that to me?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVtkOqGWp3
Inko walked to Tatsumaki and hugged her softly.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLomHnG66Q
Inko: “Because I’m worried, and we left off on a terrible note. I don’t want to lose you.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAKOXuFraU6
Tatsumaki: “Mom, you won’t lose me. But nearly giving me a heart attack just to say that, really?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUpvye6xOx
Inko: “Not just because of that, I wanted us to go out together. The whole family, to take a break from the troubles of the world.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCGqbtAUTxL
Tatsumaki: “… Villains don’t take breaks.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzQcRF1NTO
Inko: “But heroes should. If they don’t, they might lose to those villains.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDSy3bib0N
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, I could be on my deathbed and still beat them.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVSN45HrGB
Inko: “Maybe, but I want my baby at 100%. That way she can better defend those precious to her, right?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIDwhzi8gY
The eldest daughter took a moment to think about it, glancing at her siblings before sighing in resignation.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfPWSp8U4u
Tatsumaki: “…Just a few hours and that’s it.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4i0GcBkEzw
Inko: “Yes!”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GKjUzzVjZ
The first part is over; now she needs to find something for everyone to do.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAphaTbo7P4
She leads Tatsumaki further into the home, completing the family gathering. But that’s when Fubuki noticed something off about Tatsumaki’s eyes.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhg45YUtUH
Fubuki: “Sister… are you wearing… eyeliner?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqbiIgMhw2
Tatsumaki: “W-What? No!”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uUR4JVnmy
Inko: “Ohhh, has my baby finally decided to take her makeup seriously? Let me guess, it’s a boy, right?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1KP1iyTYF
Tatsumaki: “No! We’re not like that!”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7r694X828
Silence.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3CUbn7F5R
Stunned silence and widened eyes are what you would see in this household. Even Izuku was taken aback.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQW9XfepG5
We?
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxxtbMhRNlA
We imply two people.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9FA95J31b
Two people in this context mean a couple.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6INihIk4Mm
Tatsumaki being straight means it’s a guy. A he?
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpbjOKkwmT
He?
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnK6a5KzOR
HE!?
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XguUWKwsO
Inko’s smile brightens like the sun while Fubuki leans her head against a wall.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQlLNknwgrY
Tatsumaki: “Mom, wait-”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5X5LrIulOM
Inko: “My baby girl has finally become a woman!”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgozvTAzGwf
Tears stream down the mother’s face. She never said anything, but she was worried her daughter would never find a guy.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrZSafKAILi
Izuku: “No way.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIyRkKCqsb
Fubuki: “I can’t believe it, big sis got a boyfriend before me. How could this happen?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSwLvMvTQX
Kiri: “New nephew or niece?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniQJ0XREGV
Tatsumaki’s face was beyond red at this point. She covered her face in shame.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSEZFPjoRt
Tatsumaki: “Come on, stoooop. We’re just… coworkers.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0sU3vIPm3u
Inko: “Does this ‘coworker’ have a name?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFLq9JmxET
Tatsumaki: “…I’m not telling.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFvpDwpVVAO
Inko: “Ohhhh, you can be so cute sometimes, Tatsu.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFGN8AIfXG
Izuku: “So is it true? You really have a boyfriend?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEFHaZnzit
Tatsumaki: “No! The only reason I’m wearing makeup is to… cover up the bags.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1EsSE2Eui
The once joyful atmosphere sobered as the family looked at Tatsumaki.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NjgOLLEQi
Fubuki: “Sister, how long has it been since you’ve slept?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBNc2xcVbV
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, I sleep enough.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3kBWcjzg3
Inko: “No, no, no. This is why this family outing is so important; you all need to take a break. You and Izuku need it the most.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWMY8JlJHnY
Tatsumaki: “Izu, Y-You can’t sleep?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpaLHNFV3CF
Izuku: “It’s been… a bit difficult.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSGkNoTDtw
Kiri couldn’t help but blame herself a bit. Maybe it’s not her; it could be something else. But maybe the reason why he’s having trouble is because he misses her warmth. They got pretty used to each other at this point, despite the initial struggles.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZiyc5Vcaw
Even Kiri is having trouble sleeping without her snuggle buddy. But she… just can’t be around him while he sleeps anymore. It feels… uncomfortable.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS39uObbHQq
Tatsumaki: “Okay, let’s do this then. If you really think it will help.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPqYdhNG1s
Inko: “Great!”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdYbcYZ3fE
Izuku: “But what are we doing?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnnF5Pc8lL
Inko: “Haha, would you believe me if I said I didn’t plan that far ahead.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoS0O5kYLg
Fubuki: “Mom…”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxYqP45R9L7
Inko: “Oops. But don’t worry! By the time you all dress yourselves in something casual, I will have come up with something.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JVeV20Q58
And so they did. There were still casuals Tatsumaki and Fubuki could wear within the house that suited them. After a few moments, everyone was ready.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrWJtRfIjyZ
Izuku had simple gray pants and a white shirt with an open blue hoodie over it.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTdZBZzUmHg
Kiri wore a long-sleeve yellow shirt that was a size too big but emphasized her cuteness.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8Vvk8xkxd
Fubuki had a red dress shirt and a long gray skirt. Together with sunglasses, it made her look truly stylish.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIuVlkjDts
Tatsumaki wore a black shirt with a biker jacket over it and a dark frilly skirt.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJSUPYirIF
Inko was already in her casual outfit, a pink shirt with blue jeans. Thanks to Fubuki preventing her from eating herself into a small round figure, she still looked beautiful.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMx1Fyy9iI
Inko: “You all look great. Okay, my plan is that we go to the amusement park.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdLudMb6Y5
Fubuki: “Sounds good, we can take my car.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXMwGvFrOk
Tatsumaki: “Why drive when we can fly?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoT1VDrjp8
Fubuki: “Because not all of us can fly, and it’s pretty far.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKbviyWDYO
Tatsumaki: “You carry Mom, I carry Kiri. Think of it like training.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQsiDDFJhPK
Fubuki: “Training? They’re not that heavy.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3bI2MI8RO
Inko: “I wouldn’t mind Fubuki; it would be fun to fly through the sky again. I still remember the first time you took me out for a flight.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmnXyTyexy
Fubuki: “We also got in trouble for using our quirk.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv07DSytKoo
Tatsumaki: “We’re heroes now; they won’t say anything. Now come on.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDnJqS5m6Y
Fubuki sighs and nods her head. Tatsumaki floats the giggling Kiri while Fubuki helps her smiling mother up. The group flies out after opening the door. But it didn’t take long to notice someone wasn’t following them.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMiTkjstXFG
Fubuki: “Izu?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLpFXIA1tZt
Tatsumaki: “What’s wrong?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8tT3FNP7t
Izuku was outside looking up at them, seemingly hesitating to use his quirk. Not wanting to worry them though, he shakes his head.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1coTOOW5e2
Izuku: “N-Nothing.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHyxxqa1XB
He slowly lifts himself and joins them in the sky.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBuJBvLYy3
Tatsumaki: “Great, now try to keep up.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFCYAYa3Aw
Fubuki: “No, we’re not blasting off.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwny0rSk6y
Inko: “I would prefer a more leisurely flight. I love looking at the world below pass by.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQcHRwDc1x
Izuku: “Agreed.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhkT0iVfKo
Kiri: “Nh.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtYFI8zhDbe
Tatsumaki: “Darn, outvoted. Fine, we can go grandma speed.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZF6UbfSZVH
Inko: “Hey, your grandma used to be known as the turbo granny. She had no speed quirk, but you wouldn’t know that by how she ran… away from problems, that is.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYCkRGIEfai
The family either laughed or smiled at the comment. After that, it didn’t take long for them to touch down at the nearest amusement park.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNpvEZvfJ7
Kiri: “Colorful.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPslPdt9M0
Inko: “Yep, I’m glad it’s giving you a good first impression, Kiri. So gang, what’s first?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0vM3vz4I4
“Bumper Cars!” “Roller Coaster.” “Food!” “Ferris Wheel!”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwU29BR72Gc
It seemed like everyone had different desires.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzbbyypuup1
Tatsumaki: “A Ferris wheel? Fubuki, come on! That’s boring.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQonwj3dqwq
Fubuki: “Aren’t we too old for bumper cars?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34sTbevMUr
Tatsumaki: “Scared of losing? I understand.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNHhuLM8Cw
Fubuki: “Ha, from what I remember, I always beat you at those.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡallykmgpbI
Yeah, those were the days. One of the few things she could beat her sister at. Besides that and academics, Fubuki didn’t win much. It wasn’t nearly as important as beating her in psychic power, but she still held those small wins in high regard.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJi4bu4bWyL
Tatsumaki: “Things will be different this time.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GgOwDdKxM
Inko: “Okay, you all want to do something different. How about we play for it? Jan-ken-pon!”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡst9dIg0j4j
Tatsumaki: “And you said I was the one being too much of a kid.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwYbcMs6AY
Izuku: “Does sound fair, though.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx8Z5KJWuzA
Kiri: “Nh.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh96G89vnG7
Fubuki: “Let’s do it.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfflZ2nzEl
Inko: “Great! Now get ready.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnO430G4BZQ
Everyone got into battling position.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpP5D7JYWVG
Inko: “Jan!”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVQlYZ3Y2G
Izuku: “Ken.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepDhJ3ORNp
Tatsumaki: “Pon!”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkTho1h5CE
The result? Fubuki won.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjEZLuFJdPM
Tatsumaki: “Darn it!”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ2FFizbY7V
Fubuki: “Ferris wheel it is.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZHQPidpS0
Inko: “We play again to decide in what order we’ll go in.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFdKGBU7wK
The group played again, and at the end, the schedule looked like this.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16916CCNHP
Ferris Wheel, Bumper Cars, Food, Shooting Range(Inko’s choice), and Roller Coaster.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡINo3b23Iyp
Plan set, the family entered the amusement park and had some fun.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQI5rfxraHe
Despite initially not liking it, Tatsumaki enjoyed the Ferris Wheel. Seeing her family just relax was nice and the view was great. Kiri was especially captivated when they reached the summit.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe7TgiM0tEM
It was so relaxing; Tatsumaki drifted off to sleep on her mother’s shoulder. Seeing this, the family smiled warmly at the innocent look Tatsumaki rarely shows.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1K1Dq1IRgv
Fubuki: “So we’ll buy another round or two, right?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVovcfhktC
“Yep.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBW9mWk0c9w
The whole family agreed to let Tatsumaki get some rest. So Inko paid for two more rides. When Tatsumaki finally awoke, she was too embarrassed to say thank you directly. But the blush was all they needed.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEIlqTrA55
Next was the Bumper cars. The family was nothing but smiles throughout the whole game; it was good to return to simpler times.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNgW0QY3Ma
Kiri was the first one out, not used to using any vehicle. Next was Izuku for similar reasons. Much to her surprise, Tatsumaki lost next, but not to who she was expecting.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ537Rw0Za7L
Inko: “Haha, don’t underestimate your mom, kids. I’ve been driving before you were all born.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf845Qrov5f
Fubuki: “You still need to beat me, the current champion of bumper cars.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4hs4F023s
Inko: “Former champion, you mean. Here I come!”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAGHqYERNs
It was a close match, but in the end, the mother won.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaR4otK6D4
Inko: “Hahahaha!”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXxSaNpa0y
Fubuki: “I have to admit, Mom, you’re a good driver.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCxloaYeSs
Kiri: “Nh.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQxBlfzmaR
Tatsumaki: “You should show those skills more often. You usually drive like a snail.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8wZNtAwhWv
Izuku: “I don’t think me and Kiri could survive Mom doing some of those moves.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡax2vc8pq1N
Kiri: “No, no.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXHUY2zgjty
The group shared a laugh while on the way to the food stalls. Tatsumaki got some candy apples, her favorite, while Kiri found her new favorite food.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgR72J5axp6
Kiri: “Mmmmmm!”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSywkxdeDa6
Cotton Candy.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA58g7EzP69
Fubuki: “You two have a ridiculously big sweet tooth.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoKOMfvFD7x
Tatsumaki: “And we have no shame. Right, Kiri?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9ZRveASDC
Kiri: “Nh. Love it.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnp7DHRxeCa
Fubuki hasn’t completely accepted Kiri yet, but she can now admit she’s cute with a smile.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78zZhmiNmY
The rest of the group just got an assortment of normal snacks. Well, normal for Midoriya standards. To anyone else, the whole family had a sweet tooth.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKawlMLul94
Inko got four massive cinnamon rolls.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1OLP5FIl6
Inko: “What? It’s a free day today; I can splurge a bit.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrgh6qZiD4
Izuku got some sherbet ice cream.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9EvKfEl0Yd
Fubuki, the most normal, got a strawberry smoothie.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGHohj4hNw
The shooting range was a surprise. Everyone did fairly well despite three of them never having held a gun. In the end though, Tatsumaki won.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfFdCYkVJZ
Fubuki: “You moved the shot with your powers.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzfMQdx983g
Tatsumaki: “You have no proof of that. I won fair and square. Now, since I won, I’m going to get some more sweets for me and Kiri.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqviJtdCKv
Kiri: “Yes.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXphjFfUrbf
Tatsumaki and Kiri dashed back to the food stalls while Fubuki sighed.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmudeYKyZF2
Fubuki: “I swear they’ll bankrupt us at this point.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeh3UfKYGN9
Izuku: “At least they’re having fun.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡManqYU2KVb
Inko: “Yeah. But… what about you, sweetie? How do you feel?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdrvRnj2i4w
Fubuki and Inko look to Izuku with some concern. He’s not as animated as he could be. But despite that, Izuku flashed them a bright smile.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLUvCDtAGe
Izuku: “Y-Yes, I’m… glad I came. It’s fun hanging out with you all again.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpsvpGJPyV
Inko hugs her son.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDurEqNJT3
Inko: “I’m happy to hear it. If you ever need a break and you just miss us, please tell me. We’ll do this again.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyW2d71fdMG
Izuku: “I… will. Thank you, Mom.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoI7iJYSx8K
Inko: “Good. And the same applies to you, Fubuki.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5pOTiod56
Fubuki: “Huh? Me?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXHGYm2N8Kf
Inko: “Yes, I don’t want you or Tatsumaki to work yourselves to the bone. So please take a break now and then. Your agency won’t explode without you. Sometimes, you’re even busier than Tatsumaki.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLYAAwLYba
Fubuki: “R-Really? I…. didn’t notice. I’ll try to make more time, mom, I promise.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGdAqoZmsw
Inko: “That’s all I ask.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ702l7JcpKw
Once Tatsumaki and Kiri were back, they ended things with the Roller Coaster. Kiri didn’t understand why her family was screaming and holding their arms up, but she did the same. It was in a monotone manner, but she’s trying.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDnbwJ4qm8
It was a great time; that is, until they got off the ride.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8yQiKsFuw8
Inko: “Ugh… maybe we should have eaten after the Roller Coaster.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oYNahOT5V
Izuku: “Are you okay?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FwdBJx0ly
Inko: “I think… I need to go to the bathroom. Wait for me!”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPDUYSRY6S
Inko rushes to the bathroom while everyone else waits for her.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXHpXfMhItu
Fubuki: “I should have stopped her when she went to eat more cinnamon rolls.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe21iMlpPW9
Izuku: “Maybe, but it’s nice seeing Mom let loose and have fun. I prefer this than to her worrying about us all the time.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAxNXcNPWw
Fubuki: “… You’re right.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4Xr6J5HeZ
Tatsumaki: “What the heck is this!?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVjwCwhd8g
The two espers look to their older sister, who seems to have found a new attraction.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAPF34ocLS
Izuku: “Kiri, can you wait for Mom?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04WpTDIMPk
Kiri: “Nh.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ62kKm14w9
Izuku: “Thanks.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbKvyrvztM
The duo walked up to Tatsumaki, who was near what seemed to be a haunted house.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqzJ7SxtwE
Izuku: “That’s strange. Was this always here?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8T6ak8w1T
Fubuki: “It is strange to have a haunted house in an amusement park.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQBZcRSY1Y
Izuku: “Some people find amusement in being scared.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1Lkuv8AOV
Tatsumaki: “Freaks, I say. Who wants to be scared?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReMnuxQ8Ig
The trio looked at the building for a few moments before Fubuki broke the silence.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCnkjSvdDM8
Fubuki: “So Tatsu, thinking of going in?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3tnOVNpZJk
Tatsumaki: “W-What?! Of course not! I was just wondering why something like this was here.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Y4p0hkvib
Fubuki: “I don’t know, sounds like you WANT to go in, but you’re too scared to.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmC9zKSS0zf
Tatsumaki: “HUHHHH, NO WAY!”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJ2il0z0bW
Fubuki: “No, it’s totally fine. I’m sure even other pro heroes have something they’re scared of. It’s just natural. There’s no shame in saying you’re scared of ghosts.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNzUWOJZtD
Tatsumaki: “There’s NOTHING that scares me. In fact, you know what? I’ll go in and prove you wrong. Nothing scares me; you’ll see!”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRwd26IXMU
And there she goes, into the dark house of horrors. Izuku stares at Fubuki until she notices it.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIeKiP1DQe
Fubuki: “What?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbd4IKIJQDP
Izuku: “…That was mean.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcSHyBT4a6
Fubuki: “Come on, it’s just friendly sister teasing. You have to get victories where you can. Speaking of, Izu, are you still scared of clowns?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC069ONXX5h
Izuku: “And would you look at the time? I have to get back to Kiri.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0bzyARCQqP
Fubuki giggles as Izuku walks back the way he came. But as he does, he sees a familiar face.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkoSeuNJs3l
Izuku: “Tsuyu!”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7RfBjlON07
She was at one of the food stalls with two other frog-looking kids. Her siblings perhaps? Regardless, Izuku was happy to see her. So happy he was that he didn’t notice her alarm when seeing him.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlu81Yh92eP
Tsuyu made her way to Izuku, making sure her siblings were behind her.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVAkkC84j2s
Tsuyu: “H-Hello, Midoriya. H-Here with your family too?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5FF0rVEwnZ
Izuku: “Yes. Are these your siblings?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46evhjL0y2
Tsuyu: “Yes. Satsuki, Samidare, this is Izuku Midoriya. T-The one I was telling you about. Say hi.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6Z361Dmu9
They gave their greetings while making sure to stay behind Tsuyu. They feel it too, in their instincts, the things under his shadow. Their genetic memory remembers; it screams out against one in particular, The Body.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJTmNZ7brt
Izuku: “Hello. I’m glad to see you, Tsuyu. I wasn’t awake at the time, so I wasn’t sure, but I’m happy to see you’re alrig-”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvDZiHIPGh
Izuku goes to touch her shoulder, a show of care, nothing more, but her in-built instinct screams out. She automatically knocks his hand away. Both of their eyes widen at what just happened.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1bsQ9fZrX9
The world fades away as they look into each other’s eyes, surprise etched into both of their gazes. But more than anything, pain and sorrow are reflected in Izuku’s dimming orbs.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhvl9ikZBY
Tsuyu: “I-I’m sorry, Midoriya. I-I don’t know what came over me. I guess I’m still not feeling well after the attack. T-Those villains were really scary.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwDA6PNf05
Izuku: “Y-Yeah, the villains… I-I-It’s fine. I-I was being too forward. I’ll… leave.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQJ81D2Gx4
Tsuyu wants to tell him that she was at fault, that he can stay and talk. That he’s still her friend. But she can’t bring herself to do it. Instead, she absentmindedly leads her siblings away to someplace safe.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqh7pUMbLXt
As for Izuku, his heart races and breaks at the memory of what he did during the attack. The monster he became.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCzeUCBTZhE
Before he can become lost in the guilt and shame, he feels Kiri hug him.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CBo9WUMvq
Kiri: “Onii…”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidMvSGXSF7
He should feel warmth and happiness from her hug. She’s trying so hard to make him feel better. But her hug only makes it worse, because she’s shivering.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKv0GxjiaXr
Not from the cold, but because she wants to stop touching him. Like, being this close is uncomfortable. Like, he makes her skin crawl. Even Kiri, of all people, doesn’t want to be near him.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHqTZ5Ghpo
She lets him go and scratches her skin.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdcBfh8wxNt
Kiri: “I’m… sorry.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2FLfgpnTvg
Izuku: “… I know.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDhiKsVqUK
The day went by quickly after that. Izuku kept up appearances, and he thinks he fooled everyone else. He refuses to ruin their good time; they are what’s important.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DweJ9Ndq4
He laughed when Tatsumaki claimed there was a real ghost in the haunted house and for everyone to watch out.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNyHfztlCG
He smiled when Fubuki didn’t believe it and teased Tatsu again.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM64mQKTIMv
He beamed when his mother was the peacemaker and managed to extend the trip for one more hour. After that, they flew home. Izuku once again struggles to use his quirk, but he gets over it for his family.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxkV3U4mnd
It was almost nighttime when they got home.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIolNW0wE2L
Tatsumaki: “I have to admit, today was fun.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8v3d57HfG
Fubuki: “I’m glad you got us all together, Mom.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhy9LFGXrDl
Inko: “You’re welcome. Are you going to stay?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOmf3rfEx5
Fubuki: “Sure.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHK16rnzOIo
Tatsumaki: “I don’t think I can make it home anyway.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXXngZXMFH6
Inko: “Great! Kiri, you can sleep with me so Fubuki can have her room back.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSzhaVwTJO
Kiri: “…Nh.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHqgw4PfMac
And so it was, the family cleaned themselves and got ready for bed. But before Tatsumaki fell into her bed, Izuku approached her.

Izuku: “Tatsu, before you go to bed, I have a question.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡud1Gi49eAE
Tatsumaki: “Sure, what is it?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhJ0weUMqk
The brother led her to the empty living room and sat down. Tatsu, sensing a serious conversation, sat down next to him and waited.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlP81jWw2b
Izuku: “Tatsu, how does it feel to be so powerful? Are you ever… scared of it?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHe29Ty0v4
Tatsumaki: “Izu, why are you asking me this? What’s happening?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTPJB2RQMx
Izuku: “Please, just answer me.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeP4xx5M42X
She sighs before answering.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDkvVGAD8F
Tatsumaki: “Well, to answer the first question, pretty great. It gives me nearly unlimited freedom and the ability to protect my family. Doesn’t hurt that our quirks are convenient and fun to use.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgpjxQ8F7kB
She doesn’t let her brother see the burden such power gives you or the heartbreak that comes when you fail despite it.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhMFMG4JPO
All Izuku sees is his amazing and powerful big sister.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9w4HJIjNUz
Tatsumaki: “As for the second question…”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwxRh4ySf8
She wants to say no, never. Who would be scared of their own power? Why would Izuku? Then she remembers that she doesn’t know how he defeated the Nomu or what happened.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSl4YZ9aEUF
She wonders if there is something more to her brother’s quirk.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdisP6fjsYi
So with that in mind, she changes her answer and lets some vulnerability show.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhUtc9Yi0b
Tatsumaki: “There were only two times when I was ever scared of my power or even resentful of it.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5EASi0O9FF
Izuku: “R-Really? Why?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2SOe3UrE8A
Tatsumaki: “I… don’t want to discuss what caused me to be resentful. As for scared, it was… when I saw how terrified others were of me.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKvjQuo7Km
Izuku: “W-What did you do?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC7RtOF2ksc
Tatsumaki: “I changed how I used my powers and was a bit more mindful of them. Over time, they became less scared of me. I still cause the most property damage, but it’s the thought that counts.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVud3OkVlG
The two shared a laugh at one of Tatsu’s few flaws. It died down soon after when it was time to return to the serious manner.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxATTD1WtQI
Tatsumaki: “I don’t know what’s happening to you, Izu, but I do know that our powers don’t make us monsters. It’s how and why we use them that matters. You can’t be scared of them. Because if you are, how can you improve enough to be a pro hero alongside me and Fubuki?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOJ029KyKQ
Izuku: “Wow… I didn’t expect this from you.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbXrlbZvEY
Tatsumaki: “Hey! I have my big sister moments from time to time.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvzTQZNK25
Izuku: “Hahaha, I know. Thanks, Tatsu. I won’t disappoint you; I’ll… master my quirk.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7XMunw07A
Tatsumaki: “I expect nothing less. Now.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wTaLQ9kqk
She gets up and stretches.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0KMeuCM9N
Tatsumaki: “I should get to bed. I have a lot to do tomorrow; your big sis still needs to catch those big bad villains who hurt my precious siblings.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrv5e5yFDqZ
Izuku: “Right, good night, Tastu.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡletGcskWny
Tatsumaki: “Sweet dreams, Izu.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsSVoj78JW
Sweet dreams… huh?
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipXuLZD1R7
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVeYLErpupp
Kiri couldn’t sleep. Yeah, the embrace of her mother was great, but it wasn’t what she needed. She wanted to be with Izuku.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7COmkqSBYS
Once again, she failed to be there for him. She could feel his negative feelings, and it was terrible. Confused, painful, and alone.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTo6xQ0yG6
It got better earlier in the night, but it’s still there. She wishes she could eat it like normal, but something is preventing her. She must try harder for him.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA64FdFyllE
So she untangles herself from her mom and slips out of the room. She stalks the halls until she reaches Izuku’s room. Kiri opens it slightly to see if he’s still awake. Turns out, he’s not even in the room.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZMAcAVC8N
Panicking a bit, she called out telepathically.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4KrL62CrU
Kiri: “Izuku? Where are you?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2IXQD9ozjV
After a moment, she got a response.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp2ERvQPPPE
Izuku: “Roof.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtAqskMBMb
Breathing a sigh of relief, Kiri closes the door and makes her way to the roof of the apartment complex. The night sky was beautiful tonight, filled with stars.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRMHIXtvGdA
It was this sight that Kiri walked into and what Izuku has been staring at for a while now. He’s leaning against the railings with his head angled to the stars; Kiri soon joined him.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh8vdf5pxOO
Kiri: “Izu.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0EDBAv27G
Izuku: “Couldn’t sleep either?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqBkczv0Ea
Kiri: “Nh.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ797NHuLa3
Izuku: “…I’m sorry if I… scare you. I’ll get better at using my quirk; I have to.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡglaEUm4JlW
Kiri: “You don’t scare me.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQaSXyOrsxp
Izuku: “Then why do you shiver when we’re together?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXH6jYeKADd
Should she tell him? He doesn’t know how his… outburst affected her. Would telling him just make things worse?
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQKnekJ5M8
Izuku: “You don’t have to say anything; I know.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHqOzVWdCy
Kiri: “Know… what?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeneGVt53fK
Izuku: “How what I did affected you.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjLMbfKEE2
Her eyes widen.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhk67wrwaI
Kiri: “How?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcxavgzld3
Izuku: “…Something told me. And even if it didn’t, I could have figured it out. You’re… part of my quirk after all; sometimes I forget, but it would make sense if major changes to my quirk would affect you too. A few nights ago, I assume you got a sudden increase in power.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qwZd7vBqV
Kiri: “… Nh.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxMJTuYEsI
It happened not that long after the UA attack, a sudden jump in power. She felt… more complete somehow.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttWagLyuJr
Izuku: “That’s why… I understand why you don’t want to touch me. I’m… sorry, Kiri, for what I did.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22RuqbKfhv
Kiri: “Don’t apologize; you were just trying to save me.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOKD7r4ZFO
Izuku: “But I shouldn’t have done it like that or… indulged so much. Instead of ending it quickly… I… played with the Nomu. I… enjoyed making it suffer and… was planning on doing the same thing to Kacchan.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16TSZDuVdp
His hands tighten around the railings enough to dent it a bit.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGFV14JpMF
Izuku: “And after… a certain dream, I got a small taste of just how much stronger I can get and… how villainous it can become. If just that dip into the potential of my quirk does that… I-I’m frightened by what I’ll turn into later. I’m scared of what… might happen to you.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYiELGPQI1K
Kiri doesn’t know what to say to all of that or how to help. So she does what she can; she grabs his hand and interlocks her fingers with his. As expected, it feels… off.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtPn0m3dUn
Izuku: “I’m alright; you don’t have to force yourself. After talking with Tatsu, I know it’s how and why I use this power that’s important. So I’ll… master it and become a hero who saves people with a smile. Not one filled with cruelty but with joy.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVS9cCtNDu
Kiri tightens her grip, fighting against that feeling. She doesn’t want to let go because this is the person she adores, the Hero Izuku. This is the boy she loves.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2AnlwsPMdt
Izuku: “I’ll make sure you won’t ever have to go through what you did before again. So… until then, you don’t have to force yourself to be around me.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZM23MpQZGd
Kiri shakes her head.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxoivHVHtY
Kiri: “I want to stay. Izu, I… ”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFAtLst2ieg
That familiar feeling returns, strong enough to smother the itchiness. This time, she follows through.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡln2zBgCeZa
She turns Izuku’s face towards her and leans in close. But she doesn’t go all the way, instead she just places a simple kiss on his cheek.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjd0Gz1eaq
Izuku: “K-Kiri?”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqGuez55WAX
Kiri: “You’re not alone; we’ll both improve and become heroes together. I won’t leave your side again, Izu.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvem88yuzUy
She says that, but she’s still shivering. However, Kiri won’t untangle her hand from his. Instead, she’ll prove her words through action. It’s time for both of them to finally get some real rest.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFUeEqBptd
Kiri: “Come.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHH9iB6v8XF
She leads Izuku back inside and eventually to his bedroom. After closing the door, the two get in bed. Izuku is still worried about whether Kiri will suddenly leave like the first time.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdLPMGUAS6g
But she doesn’t; she hugs his chest and buries her face in his neck.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgbGtoNi4ws
The feeling is horrible.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5hHIh5iUS
Like several insects crawling and biting her skin. Her body is shaking like a leaf in a hurricane.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxRSAi9pjM
Izuku: “Kiri, stop. Go back to Mom’s room.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlnhiKRXlRe
Kiri: “N-No.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59gPCrFGKs
She won’t back down from this. She hangs on for dear life as the sensation gets worse.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ey4s8VQx3
Clearly, this is not normal. She knows she’s not scared of Izuku and wouldn’t recoil at his touch. So there must be something foreign doing this, something within him.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDdOJ9hpth
Well, all the more reason to fight on. And fight on she does; no matter how terrible it feels, she doesn’t let go. In fact, she holds on tighter and starts rubbing his back.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZaFJkvCEn
Kiri: “I-It will be okay. It will be okay.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsin3KXLiW
Izuku: “Kiri…”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFidxStndr3
And like a storm, eventually, it passes. As if she passed some threshold or test, the sensation stopped.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXg7LHRklAh
The insects disappear, and the feeling is replaced with the warmth they both missed. Kiri stops shaking and settles comfortably into Izuku.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7OST5MJx88
He senses this and sighs with relief.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMNqpDA0aX
Kiri: “See? I told you, I won’t leave your side again.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZVXyy7Wqv1
Izuku closes his eyes and smiles. He really has amazing sisters. He embraces her tightly, conveying all the gratitude he could.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6MTiTjgvjc
Izuku: “Kiri, thank you.”
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwhQIolJwl
She smiles as the two finally get some restful sleep.

Fanfic Adapted: Tatsumaki: Tornado of Trouble by Whackybiscuit [2022]
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5wZOnex1q
(WARNING: it’s 18+. This is where Arashi comes from. Their history is similar to Chapter 1. But their current relationship is more original.)
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubb5i9e5PF
A/N: Damn, this was way bigger than I thought. It was fun though, so I hope you enjoyed it.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dsys4sQh1
Now, continuing what I said in the last author note. I think another problem that awaits me in the future is the Izuku x Momo ship.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4K6ElDX0tY
Can you believe I’m starting to fall out of love with this ship? I swear it’s not just because of Kiri. It just feels off now. I also may have crippled it by not giving her a moment during the UA attack.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcukVBwr1R
She is supposed to get One For All, but to do that, Izuku needs to see how great she is and that she has the physical strength to handle it.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0Uq3A3qO2
If she is not able to get One For All, I will lose darn near all interest in this ship.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKuxvHzmEGK
I can still salvage this; I just don’t know how yet. I’m going to read other Izuku x Momo fanfics to see if it can get a second wind in my mind.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqk357X0Hv8
If not, I may have to go all the way with Izuku x Kiri. My muse clearly loves the pair, and Kiri clearly loves Izuku. The obstacle is getting Izuku to say yes.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrGbnKBxEc
On a happier note, I hope you got the reference I placed in this chapter. With it, I have set up the possibility for Saitama to appear.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEHDzGNfz2
But if I do include him, it will be during his earlier years, and he’ll stay mostly in the background. That means no Saitama ship, not enough time to set it up.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzY3y2HYDYd
But I could have it in the background, off-screen, if it’s Fubuki. In this context, I think it can work. But I would prefer him to stay single since that’s more in line with his character, IMO.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRgzSF5lRDk
Regardless, Saitama won’t be a big part of the story overall. Can still do cool stuff or even participate in major events later, but just not every arc. And since this is not him at his peak, he will be vulnerable to some things.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9z5Q9vGkuL
For example, Tomura can kill him and he has no resistance to mental attacks.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4SmmIXz2h
For those that don’t want Saitama in this story at all, comment now or forever hold your peace.
160Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxVMnmCtL0e
Well, that’s all I want to talk about. Till next time.
