Before the U.A Attack[Tatsumaki Omake]
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjKbp1UedK
Tatsumaki: “Annoying.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ0RxAUkfU6
With a simple finger, the quirk beast that was wreaking havoc in the street was torn apart by a small tornado.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr11jK4chY6
“Wow, that must be a new record. Not even property damage this time. Good job.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPqx83CcnqA
Tatsumaki: “Shut it, Arashi.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMFb2mBddU
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJwS10LjuEn
He was a pretty simple, if not a bit handsome, looking young man with black hair and a loose business suit.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6T2YHLiHR
Tatsumaki: “Anyway, this was much easier than I expected. You said this was some dangerous beast. Couldn’t some other hero handle it?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJlieSY3VL
Arashi: “There were none nearby. I saw the beast. I gave you a call. You know how it is.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ogv2KVVVi
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1m6DyInKex
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdHrDb0znBN
Tatsumaki: “You do that.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡixsoyTPSFS
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkeExTy4Zt
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3mKqdfJ43b
Arashi: “Tatsumaki? Oh, you miss me already?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3vipPnTopD
Tatsumaki: “Shut it, Arashi. Anyway, how’s the situation? Do you need me for something?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ98nW3DxtBO
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1jumWOmtf
Tatsumaki: “Hm… is that so?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkCE0eiDmy
Arashi: “Sooooo, what are you wearing?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzkAwL47rrZ
She hung up and fought down the slight blush.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMJw3OSKnJ
Tatsumaki: “He is so lucky he’s cu- I mean useful.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqBP9uR6aM
She sighs and lies back on the floor. Her fight against boredom continues, and for once, she doesn’t think she’ll win.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2o4WbuFDx0
Tatsumaki: “I could visit Arashi, but… that will get complicated fast. I’m not in the mood for that.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡElhOCUSjIS
Tatsumaki: “Fubuki is busy with her agency, tch, like always. Izuku and Kiri are at school. I guess I can visit Mom.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyAFOPgpz5h
She prepares to get dressed and meet her but instead stops. A smile grows on her face.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4CUlEpmjN
Tatsumaki: “This might be a good excuse to test that out.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNwfYpXtFB
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmi111Jyga
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?
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1jsfY504M
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgvCtX7xhHo
Either by bending space, breaking her down, and moving her elsewhere, or something else, whatever was easier.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6WpoCSTRyr
After a moment of actual effort, she felt something happen and smiled. In the next instant, she was in the kitchen.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbyxMyPGLv6
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzn4xCBX76N
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDXdTf9UrC
Tatsumaki: “…Yes.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwuu6z6Knk
Inko: “Sweetie, did I see what I think I just saw?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlA9zj9YsyZ
Tatsumaki: “… Would you believe me if I said no?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyIHv35lid9
Inko didn’t say anything, but managed to say everything.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfejDH9591
Tatsumaki: “Don’t tell Fubu or Izu.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8eABJiOlz
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVm6K4IkRJc
Tatsumaki: “T-Thanks, mom, I’ll do that.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbto3CIf9O
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwtCIj70do
Tatsumaki: “Teleportation is overrated anyway.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnCCzzZIVaw

After the U.A Attack
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡesYaa0QzTD
“So far we have three villains that were leading this attack.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb5uGEzDSho
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZXyaQ2xMH
She was ready to get out and find these villains as quickly as possible.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEIa3rOAV7
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ul4Y5oJfZ
All Might: “A group of villains with someone like that can be very dangerous.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFudiMyZSSH
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiB5Q11RAEj
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQQetZI9UOR
Midnight: “Can’t believe I’m saying this about a handsome man, but I hope I never meet him again.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGhzFHCsNo
Naomasa: “What’s worse is that we have no info on him. Azrael is clearly an alias.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6Xm6gMB1v
Nezu: “The angel of death… ”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfQkOP2ggn
Snipe: “You can say that again. Looking at him was like staring down the barrel of a rifle.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCxeYA4wXp
Naomasa: “Based on that, I’d imagine the only ones that should face him are the top 3 pros.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSfQCiDm3s
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, I’ll take care of them all by myself. I just need a location.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtaLadfskmW
Naomasa: “Sad to say, with a warping quirk user on their side, they could be anywhere.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxHsKmWFHI
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZcbuGtvNA4
Midnight: “Oh yeah, what about him? What do we know?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdx8OVf0GbN
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC818kwpZj1
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… ”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0pzteBghQ
Midnight: “What’s his quirk?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1LGZqxSBv
Naomasa: “Unknown, Ms. Fubuki insists he used only technology in their fight.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0gVN80MH2
Tatsumaki: “Then he shouldn’t be a problem when I find him. I can easily rip the gear off of him.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnADEZkUZiD
Naomasa: “If you find him. And who knows how you’ll fare against his Psychic Disruptor.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzjgqy3H8VR
Snipe: “Something he made with you and your family in mind. I wonder why he seems so focused on you.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWGxEkrN6D
Tatsumaki: “Simple, he’s scared of me. Hmph, I don’t blame him. His little plan wouldn’t have worked if I was there.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wap7BdIrZ
Naomasa: “Which makes his plans all the more dangerous. He can work around powerful obstacles and come up with countermeasures.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOvafFwTBgT
Vlad: “The longer he’s out there, the harder it will be to deal with him and this league of villains.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNZcg07Rb6
Nezu: “That’s not the most disturbing thing about him, is it, Tsukauchi?
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTycdt0ANDk
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Pv87xPsTt
The room grew quiet at that revelation. A villain that smart yet barely a teenager.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52N7II2LBE
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiNTdU01KH6
Midnight: “Why?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0SgX9G56xY
Nezu: “Because it means the elevation of a person to divine status, essentially becoming a god.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtubqnxNQV
Naomasa: “So this kid is incredibly arrogant and egotistical to give himself such a title.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfmWdDnpNC
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mbBj92tzP
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcK1i5dbyL8
Tatsumaki: “You worry too much.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkj3eZirpTo
Nezu: “Perhaps.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJ9qjANvMx
All Might: “What about the last one, the one young Midoriya fought?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpsoYxwj0C
Naomasa: “Well… as you all know… there wasn’t anything left of him. Ms. Fubuki and Midoriya made sure of it.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpWLsAhMVZ
Vlad: “But what I want to know is how? Based on what Aizawa said, this creature had strength comparable to All Might’s.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1tmFG4rPa
All Might: “Yeah, and taking a punch from young Tae is no easy feat.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57UzDcPCQa
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZe6PUIJGuV
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4z7pGNDmQs
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9h0OwSgIJ
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjLeBmcMu0
Vlad: “Hmmm, I don’t like it. What are they hiding?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡboTo1AmpfW
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSA8bKC7SvB
Naomasa: “I agree, it’s worrying, but nothing we should concern ourselves over.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnkLfTNsx7
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?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ21JD1PL6v2
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkrTtExQ6qd
Midnight: “But aren’t you curious about what your brother is hiding and why?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuzVlZDlRak
Tatsumaki: “No, I trust my brother. Now, I would suggest you stop asking these questions, Midnight.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCM0SzT24K
The two ladies glared at each other for a moment before All Might coughs to snap them out of it.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl2gCVdCVbw
All Might: “We should get back on track.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIxfyLChZf
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, you do that. I got what I needed.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfMcVpWhRw
Tatsumaki opened the window next to her and flew out in search of her prey.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNEny25KtvX
Midnight: “Ugh, tell me why we put up with her again.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDsjNQegTY
Snipe: “Ha, you’re just jealous Tatsumaki and her sister beat you in the most attractive female heroes ranking.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiyWsfyfYa
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIOawNqGT6
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3KeO0onhIJ
All Might: ‘If only I was at my prime…’
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFencGx9Su
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOhzvaTNx0
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXP8OwptLh
She understands that they would be shaken by the attack, but there’s something else wrong.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNs2tBAtvg
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6E8Z51tt3
No, what’s wrong is when she suddenly stops and looks colder than usual. But that doesn’t compare to Izuku.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDJOVEsgru
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwii5O4OLL
Tatsumaki won’t pick up her calls, and Fubuki is always busy. Enough is enough.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡywBXHaq8SO
It’s time for a family get-together.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7nKdoExum
While eating at the table in uncomfortable silence, Inko makes her move.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqagoimy0Er
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQg9Zisnequ
Izuku: “… I don’t know. I’m not in the mood.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡme5LJw0jEc
Kiri: “…Nh.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5Ka57xV8w
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jh5BCM1E2
Izuku: “… I don’t think that’s possible.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUh7Y8dJ4Jq
Inko: “Sweetie, please. I’m worried, and I… want to help. Just a few hours with your sisters.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4eHcKbq2W
Izuku looks at Kiri, who looks back. She smiles, trying to bring some warmth back into his life.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kRDLAWFeD
Kiri: “I would… like it. Can we?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLKeoIUgFz
Inko: “See? Kiri is willing to try it.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYTy7uBS8g
Izuku: “…Okay.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYDJAIUxj7
Inko: “Great! Now I just have to get Fubuki and Tatsumaki.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKyCjdozD2e
Inko grabs her phone and dials Fubuki first. Hopefully, she has the time.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInDmvP1WqH
Fubuki: “Yes, Mom?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsckmhZmSL4
Inko: “We’re getting the family together for a nice relaxing day, just to have fun. What do you say?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCljHmy8vw
Fubuki: “I would love to, but-”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9QgnDyUkN
Inko: “Fubuki, please. I feel like… I’m losing you all. Izuku barely talks, and even Kiri can’t get to him.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6EDribuFo
Fubuki: “He what? What’s wrong with Izuku?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbR0ysVLJm
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatLAc28kB6
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRfLnJFZRnS
Inko: “Yes!”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KoxDuY6kr
Fubuki: “But how will you get Tatsu to come? She’s been… distant recently.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwViaYBwky
Inko: “It might be underhanded, but it’s for her own good.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyA6HwysPbU
30 minutes later
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvhsgvYqEsb
Tatsumaki bursts through the front door, ready to tear apart whoever dared to attack her home.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2pDa9Z4Yn
Tatsumaki: “Izuku! Mom! Where-”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oAeHw2XSd
Instead of a crisis, she sees a normal living room with her whole family present.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdOaeFWGMcu
Tatsumaki: “… What the fu-”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqexjVC5tGj
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ6kUu6713n
Tatsumaki closed her eyes and pinched her nose. Her heart was about to break out of her chest, and it was for nothing!?
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKesYXjAHGT
Tatsumaki: “…Why… why would you do that to me?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTaFwvXV3d
Inko walked to Tatsumaki and hugged her softly.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ933P0QcDMN
Inko: “Because I’m worried, and we left off on a terrible note. I don’t want to lose you.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHX3oUw6FUk
Tatsumaki: “Mom, you won’t lose me. But nearly giving me a heart attack just to say that, really?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdkEmuEcli
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Pd796uZQ8
Tatsumaki: “… Villains don’t take breaks.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAe82URpPiu
Inko: “But heroes should. If they don’t, they might lose to those villains.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGumoS7i6PG
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, I could be on my deathbed and still beat them.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AsOSfVPu6
Inko: “Maybe, but I want my baby at 100%. That way she can better defend those precious to her, right?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0arDKVp7iL
The eldest daughter took a moment to think about it, glancing at her siblings before sighing in resignation.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVhyK7ZRMR
Tatsumaki: “…Just a few hours and that’s it.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU1wNDcjc10
Inko: “Yes!”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwJXlWr0LN
The first part is over; now she needs to find something for everyone to do.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHtEzITulT
She leads Tatsumaki further into the home, completing the family gathering. But that’s when Fubuki noticed something off about Tatsumaki’s eyes.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQo7P2X33oS
Fubuki: “Sister… are you wearing… eyeliner?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNw0dyxqHF
Tatsumaki: “W-What? No!”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNN0bU45oJP
Inko: “Ohhh, has my baby finally decided to take her makeup seriously? Let me guess, it’s a boy, right?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1o4gbtJuTt
Tatsumaki: “No! We’re not like that!”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcAl4NxjvU
Silence.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanWdXMimFd
Stunned silence and widened eyes are what you would see in this household. Even Izuku was taken aback.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJtaNkuZRh
We?
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKuZ5D1BFxC
We imply two people.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG93taN6x5W
Two people in this context mean a couple.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1CUj58vES
Tatsumaki being straight means it’s a guy. A he?
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCqS6Jen7i
He?
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZZzyfgD88
HE!?
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhGHcrwyql3
Inko’s smile brightens like the sun while Fubuki leans her head against a wall.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBbbCLldz8
Tatsumaki: “Mom, wait-”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPMKSCyaPI
Inko: “My baby girl has finally become a woman!”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQ9gs57rvh
Tears stream down the mother’s face. She never said anything, but she was worried her daughter would never find a guy.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsrT3VDEmko
Izuku: “No way.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzZzlvW0Wz
Fubuki: “I can’t believe it, big sis got a boyfriend before me. How could this happen?”

Kiri: “New nephew or niece?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJJjRHtiCj
Tatsumaki’s face was beyond red at this point. She covered her face in shame.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVIdbUlUxj
Tatsumaki: “Come on, stoooop. We’re just… coworkers.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2c3eAx4ZB
Inko: “Does this ‘coworker’ have a name?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfq8RsMEza
Tatsumaki: “…I’m not telling.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhGPvtM4PH
Inko: “Ohhhh, you can be so cute sometimes, Tatsu.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZ0S8ilCHc
Izuku: “So is it true? You really have a boyfriend?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIuy1ezUqc
Tatsumaki: “No! The only reason I’m wearing makeup is to… cover up the bags.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrJIpVnj9B
The once joyful atmosphere sobered as the family looked at Tatsumaki.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjRpdmszCNx
Fubuki: “Sister, how long has it been since you’ve slept?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjKvBg9kuX
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, I sleep enough.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitmArtwDSB
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRAkM5TbEW
Tatsumaki: “Izu, Y-You can’t sleep?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtlfZmVke0i
Izuku: “It’s been… a bit difficult.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUilGSfmSP
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFElf21OYN
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcONhQFheOO
Tatsumaki: “Okay, let’s do this then. If you really think it will help.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1rrnWGTn8
Inko: “Great!”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmzU4Y3Paf
Izuku: “But what are we doing?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTa0cdgpKXW
Inko: “Haha, would you believe me if I said I didn’t plan that far ahead.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbbjiBRtem
Fubuki: “Mom…”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTSC3K5tnk2
Inko: “Oops. But don’t worry! By the time you all dress yourselves in something casual, I will have come up with something.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9vfXeNHmCG
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMSGhphNDu8
Izuku had simple gray pants and a white shirt with an open blue hoodie over it.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaEDi07rkc9
Kiri wore a long-sleeve yellow shirt that was a size too big but emphasized her cuteness.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfx6B5u9oeR
Fubuki had a red dress shirt and a long gray skirt. Together with sunglasses, it made her look truly stylish.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGkjWN46tz
Tatsumaki wore a black shirt with a biker jacket over it and a dark frilly skirt.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSNu4lNhjV
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdVAsIhscd
Inko: “You all look great. Okay, my plan is that we go to the amusement park.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFeamrH3Ev
Fubuki: “Sounds good, we can take my car.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGoMpK49Poo
Tatsumaki: “Why drive when we can fly?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQoH7ahL3ZT
Fubuki: “Because not all of us can fly, and it’s pretty far.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJpyT1G5Aq
Tatsumaki: “You carry Mom, I carry Kiri. Think of it like training.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRO80SXJ7Fa
Fubuki: “Training? They’re not that heavy.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZIR5EfKx5
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQoMbILcC13
Fubuki: “We also got in trouble for using our quirk.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEb8clinTHV
Tatsumaki: “We’re heroes now; they won’t say anything. Now come on.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvYzdQWZy2
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9bMaYJ4hO
Fubuki: “Izu?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX476YucZ8s
Tatsumaki: “What’s wrong?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw53oBL8aBn
Izuku was outside looking up at them, seemingly hesitating to use his quirk. Not wanting to worry them though, he shakes his head.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9ScZKOX4z
Izuku: “N-Nothing.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6U7PPMXmW6
He slowly lifts himself and joins them in the sky.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5wILgS78o
Tatsumaki: “Great, now try to keep up.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJZgisifjD
Fubuki: “No, we’re not blasting off.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI3sSBbkipn
Inko: “I would prefer a more leisurely flight. I love looking at the world below pass by.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5bg89PmBe
Izuku: “Agreed.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡITaNdVby1J
Kiri: “Nh.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NNzeZAoqv
Tatsumaki: “Darn, outvoted. Fine, we can go grandma speed.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6NzCRsFY7
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtR0HSdYckV
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXkGKwfhsQC
Kiri: “Colorful.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡse5tw6mx0z
Inko: “Yep, I’m glad it’s giving you a good first impression, Kiri. So gang, what’s first?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mr3jiRjjh
“Bumper Cars!” “Roller Coaster.” “Food!” “Ferris Wheel!”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGcYz8wobO
It seemed like everyone had different desires.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCG8VgOrul
Tatsumaki: “A Ferris wheel? Fubuki, come on! That’s boring.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqphyYgekaU
Fubuki: “Aren’t we too old for bumper cars?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYg6ZJXGxd
Tatsumaki: “Scared of losing? I understand.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8USrbSSAu
Fubuki: “Ha, from what I remember, I always beat you at those.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9BmNqwbfa
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpiq5a7Joq
Tatsumaki: “Things will be different this time.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmzioBNJG4I
Inko: “Okay, you all want to do something different. How about we play for it? Jan-ken-pon!”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAa8IZ1FTqa
Tatsumaki: “And you said I was the one being too much of a kid.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0pZrKcjVL0
Izuku: “Does sound fair, though.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYdCbzs9lL
Kiri: “Nh.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYR8DCJqJOn
Fubuki: “Let’s do it.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DilPo3U24
Inko: “Great! Now get ready.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl813efKbwL
Everyone got into battling position.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡauIclZY3hD
Inko: “Jan!”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEDXS7yVLTG
Izuku: “Ken.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfD8Zz9MY8t
Tatsumaki: “Pon!”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrSGeWlAL0
The result? Fubuki won.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLchQGtD3rJ
Tatsumaki: “Darn it!”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8ZuPeWy50
Fubuki: “Ferris wheel it is.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3oZp70B1E
Inko: “We play again to decide in what order we’ll go in.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSsQ0QSzmq
The group played again, and at the end, the schedule looked like this.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsmpfFgRvdz
Ferris Wheel, Bumper Cars, Food, Shooting Range(Inko’s choice), and Roller Coaster.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYy0MPGcysK
Plan set, the family entered the amusement park and had some fun.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEfgQDDUeH
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwCbbdL0Agx
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4fhjCrGn2
Fubuki: “So we’ll buy another round or two, right?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLB8nfdY0Jg
“Yep.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUXa3qbinQ
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDK1PB5iYQ
Next was the Bumper cars. The family was nothing but smiles throughout the whole game; it was good to return to simpler times.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnS4FgQdavQ
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqIltZ7NMz9
Inko: “Haha, don’t underestimate your mom, kids. I’ve been driving before you were all born.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDhGBMz8rGT
Fubuki: “You still need to beat me, the current champion of bumper cars.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTTWLg6pJD
Inko: “Former champion, you mean. Here I come!”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXwhVyLtOI
It was a close match, but in the end, the mother won.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zGIf1uDZl
Inko: “Hahahaha!”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxF1iceaUuA
Fubuki: “I have to admit, Mom, you’re a good driver.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAWp3XzqQxi
Kiri: “Nh.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrOcHJoqGp
Tatsumaki: “You should show those skills more often. You usually drive like a snail.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdHyLrt06o
Izuku: “I don’t think me and Kiri could survive Mom doing some of those moves.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QZwFZAB9M
Kiri: “No, no.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuYYZCVwgMQ
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvwd4jLkQm
Kiri: “Mmmmmm!”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTyI5kHVH6
Cotton Candy.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnaWgPIFTN
Fubuki: “You two have a ridiculously big sweet tooth.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0JO4DQIYk
Tatsumaki: “And we have no shame. Right, Kiri?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM4Sr1Un0DF
Kiri: “Nh. Love it.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSxSadK8ld
Fubuki hasn’t completely accepted Kiri yet, but she can now admit she’s cute with a smile.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdTrjph9u2
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7pIB8FmCh
Inko got four massive cinnamon rolls.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5mBdEtOMt4
Inko: “What? It’s a free day today; I can splurge a bit.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6b42drkx8j
Izuku got some sherbet ice cream.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JpTtosio3
Fubuki, the most normal, got a strawberry smoothie.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGLD92jVIR
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCIMM6fqpCs
Fubuki: “You moved the shot with your powers.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoayEd5SIA
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAUhWAcOYX
Kiri: “Yes.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIv6wNpGi9L
Tatsumaki and Kiri dashed back to the food stalls while Fubuki sighed.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcj7upGeJj4
Fubuki: “I swear they’ll bankrupt us at this point.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmlEaGj9eh
Izuku: “At least they’re having fun.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5EgYUpUjUU
Inko: “Yeah. But… what about you, sweetie? How do you feel?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvacvOXqJwB
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVtnyryWsL
Izuku: “Y-Yes, I’m… glad I came. It’s fun hanging out with you all again.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fWboXCAms
Inko hugs her son.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdUatcJZfS
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMmUdoM1Dd
Izuku: “I… will. Thank you, Mom.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK9uyairHbm
Inko: “Good. And the same applies to you, Fubuki.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JcgI8Gf2i
Fubuki: “Huh? Me?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkVsWGaZRDh
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoA9AJXecz
Fubuki: “R-Really? I…. didn’t notice. I’ll try to make more time, mom, I promise.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIiPbWqaPl
Inko: “That’s all I ask.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0Mpn32BYn
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflfTGf0ZaF
It was a great time; that is, until they got off the ride.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEpmneNPxt
Inko: “Ugh… maybe we should have eaten after the Roller Coaster.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGYYl7dtVx
Izuku: “Are you okay?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtntTaXArY
Inko: “I think… I need to go to the bathroom. Wait for me!”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy1NEaIkyso
Inko rushes to the bathroom while everyone else waits for her.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3RUZLpymC
Fubuki: “I should have stopped her when she went to eat more cinnamon rolls.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezgC6yEfPY
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIX7Z43SP8
Fubuki: “… You’re right.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCGeZDlZPz
Tatsumaki: “What the heck is this!?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VYnrY11EZ
The two espers look to their older sister, who seems to have found a new attraction.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaoVyUvj4SH
Izuku: “Kiri, can you wait for Mom?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVVMUNo737
Kiri: “Nh.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrummkYgRJm
Izuku: “Thanks.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrqr30bRtP
The duo walked up to Tatsumaki, who was near what seemed to be a haunted house.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRy7MCh7gG
Izuku: “That’s strange. Was this always here?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNweg6vKIUD
Fubuki: “It is strange to have a haunted house in an amusement park.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp57AGJg6V3
Izuku: “Some people find amusement in being scared.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pj5bl6915
Tatsumaki: “Freaks, I say. Who wants to be scared?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfnVbnjxt4
The trio looked at the building for a few moments before Fubuki broke the silence.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HsUKEKmpK
Fubuki: “So Tatsu, thinking of going in?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIqCZWLK9M
Tatsumaki: “W-What?! Of course not! I was just wondering why something like this was here.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJ6Q2gT6Fp
Fubuki: “I don’t know, sounds like you WANT to go in, but you’re too scared to.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTeATg6CtEp
Tatsumaki: “HUHHHH, NO WAY!”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97x9qjRs4E
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttQd6QNCGO
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!”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNc15vPHZD
And there she goes, into the dark house of horrors. Izuku stares at Fubuki until she notices it.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqwjVbZiJy
Fubuki: “What?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7OGrhXo2OQ
Izuku: “…That was mean.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrrCPgXRtBh
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?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7IGKoGQTs
Izuku: “And would you look at the time? I have to get back to Kiri.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW1MfOml6Uu
Fubuki giggles as Izuku walks back the way he came. But as he does, he sees a familiar face.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK725ijDQrW
Izuku: “Tsuyu!”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhsOAfUNvR
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOwYnKqFviw
Tsuyu made her way to Izuku, making sure her siblings were behind her.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQySKYMBz2J
Tsuyu: “H-Hello, Midoriya. H-Here with your family too?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRXMR8gfeC
Izuku: “Yes. Are these your siblings?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4QKnmadCYW
Tsuyu: “Yes. Satsuki, Samidare, this is Izuku Midoriya. T-The one I was telling you about. Say hi.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXfPDnwZnl
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipkYtiiOlq
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-”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡol5aPcdpHt
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlzEtHRARlK
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuDincQ8Ncd
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4kuQL92G3r
Izuku: “Y-Yeah, the villains… I-I-It’s fine. I-I was being too forward. I’ll… leave.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKEtITIxFu
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumDaaWkraz
As for Izuku, his heart races and breaks at the memory of what he did during the attack. The monster he became.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRbYyyCsfM
Before he can become lost in the guilt and shame, he feels Kiri hug him.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWo6qtNIv3
Kiri: “Onii…”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0qGI0r8eX
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxh2VVcnzDg
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPhjTvWamDK
She lets him go and scratches her skin.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWDvoQwRUG
Kiri: “I’m… sorry.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5oRQcfwpH
Izuku: “… I know.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0xPv5ouWcv
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyvg764t6e
He laughed when Tatsumaki claimed there was a real ghost in the haunted house and for everyone to watch out.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJzrGGiJZY
He smiled when Fubuki didn’t believe it and teased Tatsu again.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHLDqZMinb
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXoUmR9xmwb
It was almost nighttime when they got home.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJ67TacPXT
Tatsumaki: “I have to admit, today was fun.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8P65UIYL0
Fubuki: “I’m glad you got us all together, Mom.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZ4F0SVWRx
Inko: “You’re welcome. Are you going to stay?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK06oHuVIZh
Fubuki: “Sure.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUTKeydbIT
Tatsumaki: “I don’t think I can make it home anyway.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2i2lV7u0D
Inko: “Great! Kiri, you can sleep with me so Fubuki can have her room back.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiUaFa7qufi
Kiri: “…Nh.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2irZPME9BK
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTV6iE8yDrd
Tatsumaki: “Sure, what is it?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmgELao9pnp
The brother led her to the empty living room and sat down. Tatsu, sensing a serious conversation, sat down next to him and waited.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzybnXs9vtB
Izuku: “Tatsu, how does it feel to be so powerful? Are you ever… scared of it?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8MRAJV26f
Tatsumaki: “Izu, why are you asking me this? What’s happening?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVzD2VwusX
Izuku: “Please, just answer me.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTrY8k4tFrZ
She sighs before answering.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4aw5M63Re
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTmpmHhwIJ
She doesn’t let her brother see the burden such power gives you or the heartbreak that comes when you fail despite it.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLua7ZFkGto
All Izuku sees is his amazing and powerful big sister.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU65F4HBA4I
Tatsumaki: “As for the second question…”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW4tgMqYmqe
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJB54lEAKQx
She wonders if there is something more to her brother’s quirk.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzm8eOp87YT
So with that in mind, she changes her answer and lets some vulnerability show.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNdysY0WNzf
Tatsumaki: “There were only two times when I was ever scared of my power or even resentful of it.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxtnqF9yQY
Izuku: “R-Really? Why?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzQwD9DdvDR
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSg5LDM6Re
Izuku: “W-What did you do?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYQJXvvHPYl
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNPSeyz62CU
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6EF9MfeXI
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?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZDOCk5lFH
Izuku: “Wow… I didn’t expect this from you.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2j2MKFbrZJ
Tatsumaki: “Hey! I have my big sister moments from time to time.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡonCEUi52Lv
Izuku: “Hahaha, I know. Thanks, Tatsu. I won’t disappoint you; I’ll… master my quirk.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTi0ur41VR
Tatsumaki: “I expect nothing less. Now.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6q0jj42FG
She gets up and stretches.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYIR4UCqKUU
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVbxozzk28s
Izuku: “Right, good night, Tastu.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8FrFVhGbH2
Tatsumaki: “Sweet dreams, Izu.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡteIbM2q4Sq
Sweet dreams… huh?
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQM7P8RgV4O
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1hrbgjCy0
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFc376d83Wx
Once again, she failed to be there for him. She could feel his negative feelings, and it was terrible. Confused, painful, and alone.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjZqXPjUuC
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxJ5gPSFChK
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNitkiOLq8
Panicking a bit, she called out telepathically.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3wAU0SZCTB
Kiri: “Izuku? Where are you?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyF1QzQWYRA
After a moment, she got a response.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcztvIkRav
Izuku: “Roof.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoL1vF0jta4
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RyhOV3YBJ
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXR1J13MYly
Kiri: “Izu.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJtz7dkRG8
Izuku: “Couldn’t sleep either?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34DvYfEOiV
Kiri: “Nh.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2TJs4NsgW
Izuku: “…I’m sorry if I… scare you. I’ll get better at using my quirk; I have to.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV03FDvca6i
Kiri: “You don’t scare me.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtq5SOEz9j
Izuku: “Then why do you shiver when we’re together?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38OuuiKlEX
Should she tell him? He doesn’t know how his… outburst affected her. Would telling him just make things worse?
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNsOJi6pjG
Izuku: “You don’t have to say anything; I know.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouhNf7iEdj
Kiri: “Know… what?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1aQxyq70hc
Izuku: “How what I did affected you.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF9xa6aFlyG
Her eyes widen.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdi0xHoPZq
Kiri: “How?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8N8h0icJZf
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQxh6NxttZ
Kiri: “… Nh.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtWtd9uoDj
It happened not that long after the UA attack, a sudden jump in power. She felt… more complete somehow.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhKRsDumLM
Izuku: “That’s why… I understand why you don’t want to touch me. I’m… sorry, Kiri, for what I did.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBEgJ0ql3R
Kiri: “Don’t apologize; you were just trying to save me.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezftchYjsz
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxesZJdd9UZ
His hands tighten around the railings enough to dent it a bit.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7o26yLY8TQ
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2aZ3ZPvajv
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo34nX0XgnV
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucuvlsSY8y
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vDGMPbv28
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.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGcfxnypuv
Kiri shakes her head.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTOtRpn2I1
Kiri: “I want to stay. Izu, I… ”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4X2hIdps1D
That familiar feeling returns, strong enough to smother the itchiness. This time, she follows through.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3CDmKMCxq
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBLmFKUASCr
Izuku: “K-Kiri?”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdthVXpqjtf
Kiri: “You’re not alone; we’ll both improve and become heroes together. I won’t leave your side again, Izu.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4P1Xj7GwV
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdKE6olggd
Kiri: “Come.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGgVQfUsPz
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WLyzhHmn2
But she doesn’t; she hugs his chest and buries her face in his neck.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUhe7JQpYi
The feeling is horrible.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBe50ubUhtq
Like several insects crawling and biting her skin. Her body is shaking like a leaf in a hurricane.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6OyWOAGQN
Izuku: “Kiri, stop. Go back to Mom’s room.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡday2iJTrdG
Kiri: “N-No.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvVCNoDxbVw
She won’t back down from this. She hangs on for dear life as the sensation gets worse.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIOhBQ4HT5E
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZaAooGa12
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdYEO9zg9W
Kiri: “I-It will be okay. It will be okay.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXKzoLVc2zt
Izuku: “Kiri…”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3YbXNVCBKs
And like a storm, eventually, it passes. As if she passed some threshold or test, the sensation stopped.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQWqf1xdLu
The insects disappear, and the feeling is replaced with the warmth they both missed. Kiri stops shaking and settles comfortably into Izuku.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIkTygauxk
He senses this and sighs with relief.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUc6aAV9IP
Kiri: “See? I told you, I won’t leave your side again.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpuAbMJ3E2J
Izuku closes his eyes and smiles. He really has amazing sisters. He embraces her tightly, conveying all the gratitude he could.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6LPNS0IJIq
Izuku: “Kiri, thank you.”
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOKxBMvKc0
She smiles as the two finally get some restful sleep.

Fanfic Adapted: Tatsumaki: Tornado of Trouble by Whackybiscuit [2022]
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBzBoWyrkJ
(WARNING: it’s 18+. This is where Arashi comes from. Their history is similar to Chapter 1. But their current relationship is more original.)
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HnUzP9tfm
A/N: Damn, this was way bigger than I thought. It was fun though, so I hope you enjoyed it.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡok0tZv8Xww
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGOd8yfmCj
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8bJHs8OKsJ
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEkgGNAa4b
If she is not able to get One For All, I will lose darn near all interest in this ship.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPojJ2DrGCr
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0FnOBJTF1
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt1YnVOPZdC
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gIlJW7uv7
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjp5xvGsMj
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVcP1S7iVw
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.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5u61v3UdOo
For example, Tomura can kill him and he has no resistance to mental attacks.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBJn3mFo9Jv
For those that don’t want Saitama in this story at all, comment now or forever hold your peace.
373Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQWcVDWR2d
Well, that’s all I want to talk about. Till next time.
