Before the U.A Attack[Tatsumaki Omake]
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PkmsAQVQX
Tatsumaki: “Annoying.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKinwWP9qwM
With a simple finger, the quirk beast that was wreaking havoc in the street was torn apart by a small tornado.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdeg5fY2lax
“Wow, that must be a new record. Not even property damage this time. Good job.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vPJ1M8Q1a
Tatsumaki: “Shut it, Arashi.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlslx2R52g3
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1exvE4A4T2
He was a pretty simple, if not a bit handsome, looking young man with black hair and a loose business suit.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxLoEoAa4Ao
Tatsumaki: “Anyway, this was much easier than I expected. You said this was some dangerous beast. Couldn’t some other hero handle it?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWrmQdSeEes
Arashi: “There were none nearby. I saw the beast. I gave you a call. You know how it is.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0MxDBvZbz
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTU8gljKzuL
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitB71R9PIv
Tatsumaki: “You do that.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡODl9FzCSBE
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzebzifwHw
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7VmG1vLG9
Arashi: “Tatsumaki? Oh, you miss me already?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSLkotYjWz
Tatsumaki: “Shut it, Arashi. Anyway, how’s the situation? Do you need me for something?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RUjn88zIj
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5sEg4MnSId
Tatsumaki: “Hm… is that so?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXmJ46X26pQ
Arashi: “Sooooo, what are you wearing?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zcipwNQiV
She hung up and fought down the slight blush.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoDV1DqfOi
Tatsumaki: “He is so lucky he’s cu- I mean useful.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRIW59gS703
She sighs and lies back on the floor. Her fight against boredom continues, and for once, she doesn’t think she’ll win.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlvPOuTVQU
Tatsumaki: “I could visit Arashi, but… that will get complicated fast. I’m not in the mood for that.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOoQ3wuQJy
Tatsumaki: “Fubuki is busy with her agency, tch, like always. Izuku and Kiri are at school. I guess I can visit Mom.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPzhenZmu4
She prepares to get dressed and meet her but instead stops. A smile grows on her face.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwXiwCD6dAr
Tatsumaki: “This might be a good excuse to test that out.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqeCqDrsOeS
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZSKg2nJzD
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?
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEGzqYtFFl
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc4oFdJIa5X
Either by bending space, breaking her down, and moving her elsewhere, or something else, whatever was easier.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCmXSwxd6Yg
After a moment of actual effort, she felt something happen and smiled. In the next instant, she was in the kitchen.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOsyja3a7ya
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKWkxMFGCC
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRabwQrCD6
Tatsumaki: “…Yes.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7NPSxJuYe
Inko: “Sweetie, did I see what I think I just saw?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQItwO0vaRS
Tatsumaki: “… Would you believe me if I said no?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMcmWq6AZ8
Inko didn’t say anything, but managed to say everything.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIbwpo92xK
Tatsumaki: “Don’t tell Fubu or Izu.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡluCPavs7S9
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFxZ1OtGe5j
Tatsumaki: “T-Thanks, mom, I’ll do that.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSl1jUxXB8
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdMqEywvnl
Tatsumaki: “Teleportation is overrated anyway.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlreXmJdenb

After the U.A Attack
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQHc4cyd0i
“So far we have three villains that were leading this attack.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ420zZAsq0p
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQ82Y4Tmuc
She was ready to get out and find these villains as quickly as possible.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeQ8ygpmZS
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhzZZXTP1t
All Might: “A group of villains with someone like that can be very dangerous.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzyGtCVdO8
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡru3NJ2wyl4
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxMdTRyAmb
Midnight: “Can’t believe I’m saying this about a handsome man, but I hope I never meet him again.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvEsK96jOY
Naomasa: “What’s worse is that we have no info on him. Azrael is clearly an alias.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xFu8baXXe
Nezu: “The angel of death… ”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1TWO9O8K9
Snipe: “You can say that again. Looking at him was like staring down the barrel of a rifle.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTsdP3cEvr
Naomasa: “Based on that, I’d imagine the only ones that should face him are the top 3 pros.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKK7wruttO
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, I’ll take care of them all by myself. I just need a location.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSHhlXzEcl
Naomasa: “Sad to say, with a warping quirk user on their side, they could be anywhere.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrEh4NcWBmT
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0BB56Nl3r
Midnight: “Oh yeah, what about him? What do we know?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUH718bEkR
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Gg2UmT9O5
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… ”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVBnViSeSh
Midnight: “What’s his quirk?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakHvkNSrbX
Naomasa: “Unknown, Ms. Fubuki insists he used only technology in their fight.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQNZOVMSMj
Tatsumaki: “Then he shouldn’t be a problem when I find him. I can easily rip the gear off of him.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXl0VSapq7k
Naomasa: “If you find him. And who knows how you’ll fare against his Psychic Disruptor.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyydcBjTnES
Snipe: “Something he made with you and your family in mind. I wonder why he seems so focused on you.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ82Q81RQlsj
Tatsumaki: “Simple, he’s scared of me. Hmph, I don’t blame him. His little plan wouldn’t have worked if I was there.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7othMxq8P
Naomasa: “Which makes his plans all the more dangerous. He can work around powerful obstacles and come up with countermeasures.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0XXZFeZ5E
Vlad: “The longer he’s out there, the harder it will be to deal with him and this league of villains.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Enz9a4ntr
Nezu: “That’s not the most disturbing thing about him, is it, Tsukauchi?
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqKA5UtkSo
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbD9gkDlKgg
The room grew quiet at that revelation. A villain that smart yet barely a teenager.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJ9j27DGJl
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZGY6jPBcv
Midnight: “Why?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwFMJYAYVP
Nezu: “Because it means the elevation of a person to divine status, essentially becoming a god.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZCnu80Kacz
Naomasa: “So this kid is incredibly arrogant and egotistical to give himself such a title.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCY169ILvKA
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVkfxPcEFq
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmaDZnKqAm
Tatsumaki: “You worry too much.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4AqYGhSMdX
Nezu: “Perhaps.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLp0kMjpwMQ
All Might: “What about the last one, the one young Midoriya fought?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmW7Y26zAL
Naomasa: “Well… as you all know… there wasn’t anything left of him. Ms. Fubuki and Midoriya made sure of it.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHdyXpY7GYf
Vlad: “But what I want to know is how? Based on what Aizawa said, this creature had strength comparable to All Might’s.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD66ScSzjvj
All Might: “Yeah, and taking a punch from young Tae is no easy feat.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrL9zaUexZ1
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1i8OdiI4hT
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAx5BcMojjA
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpqZoKzmdP
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58KlcNNaEl
Vlad: “Hmmm, I don’t like it. What are they hiding?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmjA9cpKyD
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡutbgjILS3N
Naomasa: “I agree, it’s worrying, but nothing we should concern ourselves over.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfl3b0yUL3Q
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?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxmaj91s5v
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRk77wiGCh
Midnight: “But aren’t you curious about what your brother is hiding and why?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzdYS9rQBL
Tatsumaki: “No, I trust my brother. Now, I would suggest you stop asking these questions, Midnight.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRP8Z8jHck7
The two ladies glared at each other for a moment before All Might coughs to snap them out of it.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1Qe4q8yzS
All Might: “We should get back on track.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWWP5J3WWG
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, you do that. I got what I needed.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi4tpPlURWk
Tatsumaki opened the window next to her and flew out in search of her prey.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSCRHt45ZV
Midnight: “Ugh, tell me why we put up with her again.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBVmt2YwUC
Snipe: “Ha, you’re just jealous Tatsumaki and her sister beat you in the most attractive female heroes ranking.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFiP8mNSLj
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUG0txpiKr
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnP9TXi7byJ
All Might: ‘If only I was at my prime…’
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd7gHOpn5mx
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvruZv71SfE
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qbPmD09dy
She understands that they would be shaken by the attack, but there’s something else wrong.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKwXrBK6siH
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HlVIpvU6A
No, what’s wrong is when she suddenly stops and looks colder than usual. But that doesn’t compare to Izuku.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpG0CvzIAKU
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEbqVWMX3B
Tatsumaki won’t pick up her calls, and Fubuki is always busy. Enough is enough.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnrICOfQhLQ
It’s time for a family get-together.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhrwKk7PgYp
While eating at the table in uncomfortable silence, Inko makes her move.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6MYRilLIM
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTMnS9dRIPE
Izuku: “… I don’t know. I’m not in the mood.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDrxNSsWZO
Kiri: “…Nh.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSOt3jYYWqD
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0HPn0cBWM
Izuku: “… I don’t think that’s possible.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujV8APKVDM
Inko: “Sweetie, please. I’m worried, and I… want to help. Just a few hours with your sisters.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBUzzeeKfo
Izuku looks at Kiri, who looks back. She smiles, trying to bring some warmth back into his life.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanVLdye5rI
Kiri: “I would… like it. Can we?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlakm30PQHG
Inko: “See? Kiri is willing to try it.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReMFx9SeZJ
Izuku: “…Okay.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGwYB8bIeq
Inko: “Great! Now I just have to get Fubuki and Tatsumaki.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSa4prWPvc
Inko grabs her phone and dials Fubuki first. Hopefully, she has the time.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmDvLzd4Hx
Fubuki: “Yes, Mom?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8pslCFUjID
Inko: “We’re getting the family together for a nice relaxing day, just to have fun. What do you say?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOAxvUSgZOw
Fubuki: “I would love to, but-”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2AmY47Zlos
Inko: “Fubuki, please. I feel like… I’m losing you all. Izuku barely talks, and even Kiri can’t get to him.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05XQvxQcDw
Fubuki: “He what? What’s wrong with Izuku?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnwjLXHPQ7
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmIBIMaMWF
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGiJJFflrZb
Inko: “Yes!”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9r4xdFuiqC
Fubuki: “But how will you get Tatsu to come? She’s been… distant recently.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1ZtSinoTy
Inko: “It might be underhanded, but it’s for her own good.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6ukMJNToA
30 minutes later
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UAwfxk2MW
Tatsumaki bursts through the front door, ready to tear apart whoever dared to attack her home.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpH70XAPRLK
Tatsumaki: “Izuku! Mom! Where-”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBrvVuhWHv
Instead of a crisis, she sees a normal living room with her whole family present.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zaZtnzyFo
Tatsumaki: “… What the fu-”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIo7rj8xVZo
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwS8cmor21B
Tatsumaki closed her eyes and pinched her nose. Her heart was about to break out of her chest, and it was for nothing!?
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHUbiVUyZh
Tatsumaki: “…Why… why would you do that to me?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOUMyAOmXE
Inko walked to Tatsumaki and hugged her softly.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukVlIF4tcj
Inko: “Because I’m worried, and we left off on a terrible note. I don’t want to lose you.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvZWIkUHTUH
Tatsumaki: “Mom, you won’t lose me. But nearly giving me a heart attack just to say that, really?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKp4AwC11dP
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXbVsEls7N
Tatsumaki: “… Villains don’t take breaks.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOuC5QsAd6
Inko: “But heroes should. If they don’t, they might lose to those villains.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KOB4vwzYJ
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, I could be on my deathbed and still beat them.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0DPqfYUpw
Inko: “Maybe, but I want my baby at 100%. That way she can better defend those precious to her, right?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xx4GNbUnq
The eldest daughter took a moment to think about it, glancing at her siblings before sighing in resignation.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9HO0DxBMGQ
Tatsumaki: “…Just a few hours and that’s it.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9l1K26FJWy
Inko: “Yes!”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlUxwP15P41
The first part is over; now she needs to find something for everyone to do.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBCwhmk7Sj
She leads Tatsumaki further into the home, completing the family gathering. But that’s when Fubuki noticed something off about Tatsumaki’s eyes.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jEh8dUwpO
Fubuki: “Sister… are you wearing… eyeliner?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoaSJHbbYC9
Tatsumaki: “W-What? No!”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RGSG6H7hK
Inko: “Ohhh, has my baby finally decided to take her makeup seriously? Let me guess, it’s a boy, right?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvXkRXH0a7
Tatsumaki: “No! We’re not like that!”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRl2a29TDn0
Silence.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcB1LWXDU2R
Stunned silence and widened eyes are what you would see in this household. Even Izuku was taken aback.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXE5kO8Fzk
We?
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRm1lEalPK4
We imply two people.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkoCrpS5Lb7
Two people in this context mean a couple.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33WZouoi9O
Tatsumaki being straight means it’s a guy. A he?
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTxhAg6sS1
He?
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGCo9CgMX5
HE!?
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqFUlUwYR2
Inko’s smile brightens like the sun while Fubuki leans her head against a wall.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCYgL4gTFn
Tatsumaki: “Mom, wait-”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaNScZLRf3
Inko: “My baby girl has finally become a woman!”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLJTDNK5o7
Tears stream down the mother’s face. She never said anything, but she was worried her daughter would never find a guy.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Xm3ZNA2QX
Izuku: “No way.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHmcyKT4ZV9
Fubuki: “I can’t believe it, big sis got a boyfriend before me. How could this happen?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOjtnxPb5cf
Kiri: “New nephew or niece?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MrYx8OqtO
Tatsumaki’s face was beyond red at this point. She covered her face in shame.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6etAAnfz8E
Tatsumaki: “Come on, stoooop. We’re just… coworkers.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7HIVGwUf2P
Inko: “Does this ‘coworker’ have a name?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZgdbKHc5D
Tatsumaki: “…I’m not telling.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2XIRXtTmU
Inko: “Ohhhh, you can be so cute sometimes, Tatsu.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouhv2cCc24
Izuku: “So is it true? You really have a boyfriend?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUvl4D3RbR
Tatsumaki: “No! The only reason I’m wearing makeup is to… cover up the bags.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwAudIjkSn
The once joyful atmosphere sobered as the family looked at Tatsumaki.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMaoQ6ow5b
Fubuki: “Sister, how long has it been since you’ve slept?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfGM3wQuxO
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, I sleep enough.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9cNKSaPgGL
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvuIWhjkgO
Tatsumaki: “Izu, Y-You can’t sleep?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRf3zdHh5cp
Izuku: “It’s been… a bit difficult.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnGHvTDVl1
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfSrP7BuIUu
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEbUb6M6F3j
Tatsumaki: “Okay, let’s do this then. If you really think it will help.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQ6IXFly9T
Inko: “Great!”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgVWSUxyH6
Izuku: “But what are we doing?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuR8HS9HHA
Inko: “Haha, would you believe me if I said I didn’t plan that far ahead.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwTxi67B41
Fubuki: “Mom…”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwa60VxB0X
Inko: “Oops. But don’t worry! By the time you all dress yourselves in something casual, I will have come up with something.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZz6RpbMbT
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TkTP0chC7
Izuku had simple gray pants and a white shirt with an open blue hoodie over it.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPz4Y9B7AKO
Kiri wore a long-sleeve yellow shirt that was a size too big but emphasized her cuteness.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2yVYeC2UY
Fubuki had a red dress shirt and a long gray skirt. Together with sunglasses, it made her look truly stylish.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdARBoxOjeu
Tatsumaki wore a black shirt with a biker jacket over it and a dark frilly skirt.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpwetfZDtS
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWGOvsZlAd
Inko: “You all look great. Okay, my plan is that we go to the amusement park.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRniYXJJhoV
Fubuki: “Sounds good, we can take my car.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUIUnnxc5w
Tatsumaki: “Why drive when we can fly?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLYQ7cXfo4a
Fubuki: “Because not all of us can fly, and it’s pretty far.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhXzmQEuANl
Tatsumaki: “You carry Mom, I carry Kiri. Think of it like training.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEYla75A7Ha
Fubuki: “Training? They’re not that heavy.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93EkNB2OG4
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWdKiGznh0
Fubuki: “We also got in trouble for using our quirk.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG0L59APcXS
Tatsumaki: “We’re heroes now; they won’t say anything. Now come on.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡry85svY7xX
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUIOeFfCPWw
Fubuki: “Izu?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbZ8J16n09
Tatsumaki: “What’s wrong?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeRYJ9NKxym
Izuku was outside looking up at them, seemingly hesitating to use his quirk. Not wanting to worry them though, he shakes his head.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkAqVyfWQoX
Izuku: “N-Nothing.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2MXtRgZHo
He slowly lifts himself and joins them in the sky.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGHRQOoGLQ
Tatsumaki: “Great, now try to keep up.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRls9v3333q
Fubuki: “No, we’re not blasting off.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSx6fnTUl1
Inko: “I would prefer a more leisurely flight. I love looking at the world below pass by.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBH2RUd3Eia
Izuku: “Agreed.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpndsLXDos
Kiri: “Nh.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmgF3at7xB
Tatsumaki: “Darn, outvoted. Fine, we can go grandma speed.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDDOobjepch
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDEWKCf5esr
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRWo0pVmlAv
Kiri: “Colorful.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl33UbFUXLS
Inko: “Yep, I’m glad it’s giving you a good first impression, Kiri. So gang, what’s first?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8jJ0WGqV0
“Bumper Cars!” “Roller Coaster.” “Food!” “Ferris Wheel!”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUWk0qHRYQ
It seemed like everyone had different desires.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AFPqJuhN0
Tatsumaki: “A Ferris wheel? Fubuki, come on! That’s boring.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCo7ApYtzQ8
Fubuki: “Aren’t we too old for bumper cars?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLXwPA9v60
Tatsumaki: “Scared of losing? I understand.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUt3b57ddW
Fubuki: “Ha, from what I remember, I always beat you at those.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCBkdWEySpN
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJV4Lyw4ry2
Tatsumaki: “Things will be different this time.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEwGpdkizcH
Inko: “Okay, you all want to do something different. How about we play for it? Jan-ken-pon!”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dKLWzM0SR
Tatsumaki: “And you said I was the one being too much of a kid.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVp75nYDdp
Izuku: “Does sound fair, though.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARob4ttuYG
Kiri: “Nh.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtD6zpvpWJU
Fubuki: “Let’s do it.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCOh30l34E
Inko: “Great! Now get ready.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6qoBECx87
Everyone got into battling position.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡepWMg8i2z9
Inko: “Jan!”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVpOVwLRRO
Izuku: “Ken.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrkwg9yfwN
Tatsumaki: “Pon!”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Wo9bIXE00
The result? Fubuki won.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSqQei54xhz
Tatsumaki: “Darn it!”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSDWX1nen1
Fubuki: “Ferris wheel it is.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwaqNZ8DhD
Inko: “We play again to decide in what order we’ll go in.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW12KURnGje
The group played again, and at the end, the schedule looked like this.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaO42YxfdHo
Ferris Wheel, Bumper Cars, Food, Shooting Range(Inko’s choice), and Roller Coaster.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5szEDfJVF
Plan set, the family entered the amusement park and had some fun.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxMHw7PTgL
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRd9Dmm6KcP
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37nOZiJsrx
Fubuki: “So we’ll buy another round or two, right?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV71irX2YuU
“Yep.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFpFPBe3ux
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbWyYQKfiM
Next was the Bumper cars. The family was nothing but smiles throughout the whole game; it was good to return to simpler times.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZrIXCYDUj
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNJrtkkMJz
Inko: “Haha, don’t underestimate your mom, kids. I’ve been driving before you were all born.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGInJ5GyAqR
Fubuki: “You still need to beat me, the current champion of bumper cars.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ18FnjffCv
Inko: “Former champion, you mean. Here I come!”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uyGsox0rh
It was a close match, but in the end, the mother won.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOkFbbjIPC
Inko: “Hahahaha!”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXk8qbMA26
Fubuki: “I have to admit, Mom, you’re a good driver.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYwSY6sg4T
Kiri: “Nh.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjB3jYwSd1q
Tatsumaki: “You should show those skills more often. You usually drive like a snail.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhI1My9XTw
Izuku: “I don’t think me and Kiri could survive Mom doing some of those moves.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6QSfo7W5xP
Kiri: “No, no.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Z0I5Ty4R6
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7ulH0dyg4
Kiri: “Mmmmmm!”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwMQSAtCw8F
Cotton Candy.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUDlUkRA0K
Fubuki: “You two have a ridiculously big sweet tooth.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpLJpFnHl4
Tatsumaki: “And we have no shame. Right, Kiri?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQKGIzLcjg
Kiri: “Nh. Love it.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNoCdBgP3r2
Fubuki hasn’t completely accepted Kiri yet, but she can now admit she’s cute with a smile.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAjGvM3esz
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfiT3uCPevN
Inko got four massive cinnamon rolls.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCbwPcuUar
Inko: “What? It’s a free day today; I can splurge a bit.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCampn3VNq
Izuku got some sherbet ice cream.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvq20ks11l
Fubuki, the most normal, got a strawberry smoothie.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡee5jE1EZ5Y
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8a9G1ULxq
Fubuki: “You moved the shot with your powers.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCadwdfrbwV
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HWeKuFG12
Kiri: “Yes.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe6ee7QUgFp
Tatsumaki and Kiri dashed back to the food stalls while Fubuki sighed.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSW52hKDpV
Fubuki: “I swear they’ll bankrupt us at this point.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwt7ncl7bH
Izuku: “At least they’re having fun.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCwJdTVsoNQ
Inko: “Yeah. But… what about you, sweetie? How do you feel?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqkrwk9QUUg
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp5y6w3UAJl
Izuku: “Y-Yes, I’m… glad I came. It’s fun hanging out with you all again.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybGFDR9eeC
Inko hugs her son.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBHyqxZk30
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8faDpn3DMV
Izuku: “I… will. Thank you, Mom.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEHamLg8Bq
Inko: “Good. And the same applies to you, Fubuki.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡht1vPscjUM
Fubuki: “Huh? Me?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MjY4Ujnj7
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALtv8IwuOl
Fubuki: “R-Really? I…. didn’t notice. I’ll try to make more time, mom, I promise.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDy6GCCIig
Inko: “That’s all I ask.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ833U3IHf7j
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaA2r426be
It was a great time; that is, until they got off the ride.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeRSiSeeO5E
Inko: “Ugh… maybe we should have eaten after the Roller Coaster.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaNfd1NeYj
Izuku: “Are you okay?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlevubxrg3G
Inko: “I think… I need to go to the bathroom. Wait for me!”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa77ECrOzoj
Inko rushes to the bathroom while everyone else waits for her.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNBeP35P8f
Fubuki: “I should have stopped her when she went to eat more cinnamon rolls.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUVjOPIZVW
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTRnUi4BID
Fubuki: “… You’re right.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdwc8wFNG0
Tatsumaki: “What the heck is this!?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCrb4Yh0Zw
The two espers look to their older sister, who seems to have found a new attraction.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aFtEQotWA
Izuku: “Kiri, can you wait for Mom?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8W26pvUCGl
Kiri: “Nh.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpDiOhYGiN
Izuku: “Thanks.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuMOmsGcwbM
The duo walked up to Tatsumaki, who was near what seemed to be a haunted house.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNDl6trrGnP
Izuku: “That’s strange. Was this always here?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ440dBlDRHb
Fubuki: “It is strange to have a haunted house in an amusement park.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKKHdreVpP7
Izuku: “Some people find amusement in being scared.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAXXT4VMDy
Tatsumaki: “Freaks, I say. Who wants to be scared?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1ug3Qztac
The trio looked at the building for a few moments before Fubuki broke the silence.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzJ90dSJ1Dm
Fubuki: “So Tatsu, thinking of going in?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ86ePp9pcUY
Tatsumaki: “W-What?! Of course not! I was just wondering why something like this was here.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jAdFsS4Qo
Fubuki: “I don’t know, sounds like you WANT to go in, but you’re too scared to.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuf6tABgFi1
Tatsumaki: “HUHHHH, NO WAY!”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOpZKWXV4LB
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM89g7GHHzG
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!”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyA1GsuLcir
And there she goes, into the dark house of horrors. Izuku stares at Fubuki until she notices it.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtq05IBZCD
Fubuki: “What?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5bXyqH76R
Izuku: “…That was mean.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKKfNUv3na
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?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BD8LvRPf2
Izuku: “And would you look at the time? I have to get back to Kiri.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbcRxgbRk1
Fubuki giggles as Izuku walks back the way he came. But as he does, he sees a familiar face.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsj0Az7FYmv
Izuku: “Tsuyu!”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOlZvDbVtg
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQeuyn8Y01F
Tsuyu made her way to Izuku, making sure her siblings were behind her.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QIBVJAbRP
Tsuyu: “H-Hello, Midoriya. H-Here with your family too?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDaiLYdXi81
Izuku: “Yes. Are these your siblings?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVLKuYyb5l
Tsuyu: “Yes. Satsuki, Samidare, this is Izuku Midoriya. T-The one I was telling you about. Say hi.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWlHYBnszj
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX62PoobH0X
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-”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0XspbnKmOo
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ375ACSjefH
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbv87s9bkwX
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KylbOzd1O
Izuku: “Y-Yeah, the villains… I-I-It’s fine. I-I was being too forward. I’ll… leave.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fLOrl5dQz
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhN9wq3oKde
As for Izuku, his heart races and breaks at the memory of what he did during the attack. The monster he became.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJ869CrhSp
Before he can become lost in the guilt and shame, he feels Kiri hug him.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN494204iB9
Kiri: “Onii…”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1WzCvgKnB
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSe7rw8RRah
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AlTVqKGE7
She lets him go and scratches her skin.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJE1fgQs8Z
Kiri: “I’m… sorry.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJutWORsiF1
Izuku: “… I know.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuckFhJwicQ
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxoXHGuuEs
He laughed when Tatsumaki claimed there was a real ghost in the haunted house and for everyone to watch out.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVLoivd2uKB
He smiled when Fubuki didn’t believe it and teased Tatsu again.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhVtjetAaQ
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Uuqm2IyHV
It was almost nighttime when they got home.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7fCqi8UpU
Tatsumaki: “I have to admit, today was fun.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUopGAFmPv
Fubuki: “I’m glad you got us all together, Mom.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKawlZvhvKi
Inko: “You’re welcome. Are you going to stay?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcsNv8XwfKI
Fubuki: “Sure.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtI1K3gTYFv
Tatsumaki: “I don’t think I can make it home anyway.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhS0om5TJVK
Inko: “Great! Kiri, you can sleep with me so Fubuki can have her room back.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31MO6bNtdd
Kiri: “…Nh.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Mk3ZGkA9X
And so it was, the family cleaned themselves and got ready for bed. But before Tatsumaki fell into her bed, Izuku approached her.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CzE1jUlcw
Izuku: “Tatsu, before you go to bed, I have a question.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBBqhFZFRg
Tatsumaki: “Sure, what is it?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vHxHgO5Uj
The brother led her to the empty living room and sat down. Tatsu, sensing a serious conversation, sat down next to him and waited.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuDmSKp4n1
Izuku: “Tatsu, how does it feel to be so powerful? Are you ever… scared of it?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVyFbQXRmN
Tatsumaki: “Izu, why are you asking me this? What’s happening?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRXmEmNjlLg
Izuku: “Please, just answer me.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23iFSOqlxZ
She sighs before answering.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaeAoZgLJrO
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.”

She doesn’t let her brother see the burden such power gives you or the heartbreak that comes when you fail despite it.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GA9HUECVk
All Izuku sees is his amazing and powerful big sister.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJS0kxzOqQ
Tatsumaki: “As for the second question…”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLTArdxvcn
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRT8u2AlcUN
She wonders if there is something more to her brother’s quirk.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡar1MwoM22B
So with that in mind, she changes her answer and lets some vulnerability show.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAnEChtfWzU
Tatsumaki: “There were only two times when I was ever scared of my power or even resentful of it.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzc0xTdeLi
Izuku: “R-Really? Why?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInrx0Fkwk2
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkEN9fjLI5
Izuku: “W-What did you do?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxEFUCKl2q
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1vA0AT7n0
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4LNQwylEf7
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?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpEbUiKL9Se
Izuku: “Wow… I didn’t expect this from you.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28VMxGRVfJ
Tatsumaki: “Hey! I have my big sister moments from time to time.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRQOz11sm8
Izuku: “Hahaha, I know. Thanks, Tatsu. I won’t disappoint you; I’ll… master my quirk.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡturpVk02ae
Tatsumaki: “I expect nothing less. Now.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOcJBesYUdW
She gets up and stretches.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66UY2epzTm
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN7b4TunEsd
Izuku: “Right, good night, Tastu.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPYHjwp9zK
Tatsumaki: “Sweet dreams, Izu.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80PStTTn0E
Sweet dreams… huh?
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG4a82pZgHk
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiAH2cHz7zw
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGqjbCMbSs
Once again, she failed to be there for him. She could feel his negative feelings, and it was terrible. Confused, painful, and alone.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQbbWZV0xQ
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6B3JKaxEnA
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlF8xhdt9Vg
Panicking a bit, she called out telepathically.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMdOiQPyrdi
Kiri: “Izuku? Where are you?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLlYVnUFMf
After a moment, she got a response.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJdXHX3Dkk
Izuku: “Roof.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4Pi7e0Xwn
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO1x8uGWVLL
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfxpexFXyb
Kiri: “Izu.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoisPDl28wS
Izuku: “Couldn’t sleep either?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEsYdom8NO
Kiri: “Nh.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzIeMJG7KK
Izuku: “…I’m sorry if I… scare you. I’ll get better at using my quirk; I have to.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpv3rp8qZKn
Kiri: “You don’t scare me.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8gX1zcv0LK
Izuku: “Then why do you shiver when we’re together?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsZZhpEIth
Should she tell him? He doesn’t know how his… outburst affected her. Would telling him just make things worse?
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukNkbXwwwv
Izuku: “You don’t have to say anything; I know.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQztVcWiKH
Kiri: “Know… what?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2SiSwdZJCe
Izuku: “How what I did affected you.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkOyvxuDhi
Her eyes widen.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6PzMjsJmlq
Kiri: “How?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOQV3P4caBb
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh0eaKlhV6f
Kiri: “… Nh.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KMzrTmbE0
It happened not that long after the UA attack, a sudden jump in power. She felt… more complete somehow.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXv5ssJSyp7
Izuku: “That’s why… I understand why you don’t want to touch me. I’m… sorry, Kiri, for what I did.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcqqPTWQpxf
Kiri: “Don’t apologize; you were just trying to save me.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoATtonbIg
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHtdvr5Epb
His hands tighten around the railings enough to dent it a bit.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrn4zt8kTMD
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYcteuTqJM
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQeQLJoV88
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ud9muDD5X
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRmVUDbXtdY
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.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpl1jpITJDc
Kiri shakes her head.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIHe9guPoHG
Kiri: “I want to stay. Izu, I… ”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKyutAxUfMU
That familiar feeling returns, strong enough to smother the itchiness. This time, she follows through.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5k9Uiijk3
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3z0EdN52d
Izuku: “K-Kiri?”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIcIjOiXBV
Kiri: “You’re not alone; we’ll both improve and become heroes together. I won’t leave your side again, Izu.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡah1DWMhOsr
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ68b15IxXDi
Kiri: “Come.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Up3F5mOGb
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYDEoBVRXE
But she doesn’t; she hugs his chest and buries her face in his neck.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5LFgxz0rO
The feeling is horrible.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdHGOsRwP4
Like several insects crawling and biting her skin. Her body is shaking like a leaf in a hurricane.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUpzhvtIIN
Izuku: “Kiri, stop. Go back to Mom’s room.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLhdC07KNv
Kiri: “N-No.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPYd0Yc0of
She won’t back down from this. She hangs on for dear life as the sensation gets worse.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNul3jw8SB
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU0VYdVccU5
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvy3r8Bhcei
Kiri: “I-It will be okay. It will be okay.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBUMlA0o7e
Izuku: “Kiri…”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80dYJgD58p
And like a storm, eventually, it passes. As if she passed some threshold or test, the sensation stopped.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcelOiZp1r9
The insects disappear, and the feeling is replaced with the warmth they both missed. Kiri stops shaking and settles comfortably into Izuku.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPT4OJpreZT
He senses this and sighs with relief.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXlAfKPKRN
Kiri: “See? I told you, I won’t leave your side again.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUyOVdZHF5Y
Izuku closes his eyes and smiles. He really has amazing sisters. He embraces her tightly, conveying all the gratitude he could.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzxGIZFzrl
Izuku: “Kiri, thank you.”
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRk57hlP1WP
She smiles as the two finally get some restful sleep.

Fanfic Adapted: Tatsumaki: Tornado of Trouble by Whackybiscuit [2022]
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnd5zcoqkbe
(WARNING: it’s 18+. This is where Arashi comes from. Their history is similar to Chapter 1. But their current relationship is more original.)
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYQFyfWbFi
A/N: Damn, this was way bigger than I thought. It was fun though, so I hope you enjoyed it.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnKQTj7kmHr
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNM1gl5wnp
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg7vN0ZkyFt
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHsCl1HWLe
If she is not able to get One For All, I will lose darn near all interest in this ship.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUJ5rgaqaM
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPeknT87z3j
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrwtFfLLC81
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyHZcOkdp9
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTyFvPc3OjG
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlNJb4X8sJs
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.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtZxUICZShd
For example, Tomura can kill him and he has no resistance to mental attacks.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOn3kiFXAas
For those that don’t want Saitama in this story at all, comment now or forever hold your peace.
61Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTmyZzBQOU
Well, that’s all I want to talk about. Till next time.
