Before the U.A Attack[Tatsumaki Omake]
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8kGZdsSevi
Tatsumaki: “Annoying.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcig1tJsXAw
With a simple finger, the quirk beast that was wreaking havoc in the street was torn apart by a small tornado.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Yyl37uo5w
“Wow, that must be a new record. Not even property damage this time. Good job.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3yHyh7o3S6
Tatsumaki: “Shut it, Arashi.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsmmYMmghf
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jGzns4dU9
He was a pretty simple, if not a bit handsome, looking young man with black hair and a loose business suit.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2pmrMfgbHu
Tatsumaki: “Anyway, this was much easier than I expected. You said this was some dangerous beast. Couldn’t some other hero handle it?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzlhSjzNO2N
Arashi: “There were none nearby. I saw the beast. I gave you a call. You know how it is.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxHXHWNRomX
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMScBpQuymg
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSC5zhpLeG
Tatsumaki: “You do that.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr102pQS0Vi
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBJ7obPq2w
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnO9FXt5ZFt
Arashi: “Tatsumaki? Oh, you miss me already?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdD7xfCiEAF
Tatsumaki: “Shut it, Arashi. Anyway, how’s the situation? Do you need me for something?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFhN9IKpIs
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsBm2hsPe2
Tatsumaki: “Hm… is that so?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8ba3WM1B2
Arashi: “Sooooo, what are you wearing?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGO5kS6UF2P
She hung up and fought down the slight blush.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNS9daUz6v0
Tatsumaki: “He is so lucky he’s cu- I mean useful.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUoXK3kbKk
She sighs and lies back on the floor. Her fight against boredom continues, and for once, she doesn’t think she’ll win.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZFktPOqFA
Tatsumaki: “I could visit Arashi, but… that will get complicated fast. I’m not in the mood for that.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1LwsigEsw
Tatsumaki: “Fubuki is busy with her agency, tch, like always. Izuku and Kiri are at school. I guess I can visit Mom.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEkNNjVxqN
She prepares to get dressed and meet her but instead stops. A smile grows on her face.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUvdgeeoeI
Tatsumaki: “This might be a good excuse to test that out.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaKw8piz0hz
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHiNCwtqv6
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?
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCgI83ntPQ
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlYLFOe3bk
Either by bending space, breaking her down, and moving her elsewhere, or something else, whatever was easier.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQsjqpvxvV
After a moment of actual effort, she felt something happen and smiled. In the next instant, she was in the kitchen.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvA2jYbd8K
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP4BGOtNM5I
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVyuCBrLb7y
Tatsumaki: “…Yes.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpWvBCYjaY
Inko: “Sweetie, did I see what I think I just saw?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQUE1RlKpY
Tatsumaki: “… Would you believe me if I said no?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bobMoJboN
Inko didn’t say anything, but managed to say everything.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkx0DxCYhf
Tatsumaki: “Don’t tell Fubu or Izu.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiGY3s05B6
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdIZDu72Vy
Tatsumaki: “T-Thanks, mom, I’ll do that.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEk3A5fPFHG
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5Lpmgz3jI
Tatsumaki: “Teleportation is overrated anyway.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Zud1C8XM4

After the U.A Attack
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoeUSwjlu5G
“So far we have three villains that were leading this attack.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgd4uK5qE29
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtL5HHsNF9I
She was ready to get out and find these villains as quickly as possible.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4aqLEXRhZU
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQFG5vnlvF
All Might: “A group of villains with someone like that can be very dangerous.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfz4hRQ7nZ1
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJerd2QnCpE
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4BP0zW9Xw
Midnight: “Can’t believe I’m saying this about a handsome man, but I hope I never meet him again.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmcEOzN0f4
Naomasa: “What’s worse is that we have no info on him. Azrael is clearly an alias.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVwg2OrdcD
Nezu: “The angel of death… ”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLvT1YpUyv
Snipe: “You can say that again. Looking at him was like staring down the barrel of a rifle.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMVaKsU3jn
Naomasa: “Based on that, I’d imagine the only ones that should face him are the top 3 pros.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLl54hTUyy
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, I’ll take care of them all by myself. I just need a location.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKt7BZsB1r
Naomasa: “Sad to say, with a warping quirk user on their side, they could be anywhere.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxqxNZT3c9
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIfY2H1akx
Midnight: “Oh yeah, what about him? What do we know?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxQgI5c0Ac
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0j5Cjs43U
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… ”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRx1d1zj1x
Midnight: “What’s his quirk?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWaOMEWLpQO
Naomasa: “Unknown, Ms. Fubuki insists he used only technology in their fight.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqJGL2TFBl
Tatsumaki: “Then he shouldn’t be a problem when I find him. I can easily rip the gear off of him.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzL7LqBk1Iu
Naomasa: “If you find him. And who knows how you’ll fare against his Psychic Disruptor.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDx8pEaYw1
Snipe: “Something he made with you and your family in mind. I wonder why he seems so focused on you.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx70DaVUXUs
Tatsumaki: “Simple, he’s scared of me. Hmph, I don’t blame him. His little plan wouldn’t have worked if I was there.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZwonC7Iic
Naomasa: “Which makes his plans all the more dangerous. He can work around powerful obstacles and come up with countermeasures.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZvn2WN23M
Vlad: “The longer he’s out there, the harder it will be to deal with him and this league of villains.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlt9967CM8
Nezu: “That’s not the most disturbing thing about him, is it, Tsukauchi?
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVMChz0PhH
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUz1QayFJDR
The room grew quiet at that revelation. A villain that smart yet barely a teenager.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoWlcIImLZB
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc2yC2dxxrW
Midnight: “Why?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAk1QeYlP5
Nezu: “Because it means the elevation of a person to divine status, essentially becoming a god.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBODKUB1yBP
Naomasa: “So this kid is incredibly arrogant and egotistical to give himself such a title.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZSVclZH1F
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr0qmN5cTiU
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHPbsONF6bF
Tatsumaki: “You worry too much.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWkKoAotBS
Nezu: “Perhaps.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY8MbdvNT2a
All Might: “What about the last one, the one young Midoriya fought?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvU6qJdv2Q
Naomasa: “Well… as you all know… there wasn’t anything left of him. Ms. Fubuki and Midoriya made sure of it.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxANHPOdIT
Vlad: “But what I want to know is how? Based on what Aizawa said, this creature had strength comparable to All Might’s.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeeekveVpzK
All Might: “Yeah, and taking a punch from young Tae is no easy feat.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQioUn0FRpu
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMc7EyExVTh
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1CB664gZm
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkErkiEYgj
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgIbWzP3GZ
Vlad: “Hmmm, I don’t like it. What are they hiding?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy56WIETisK
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuGP1mLhEkG
Naomasa: “I agree, it’s worrying, but nothing we should concern ourselves over.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6QRzABN43c
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?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkoT2jSe4I9
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkdX7izdcpw
Midnight: “But aren’t you curious about what your brother is hiding and why?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UfP6aGcZ5
Tatsumaki: “No, I trust my brother. Now, I would suggest you stop asking these questions, Midnight.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlsvU18HHvF
The two ladies glared at each other for a moment before All Might coughs to snap them out of it.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyK9a6alXk
All Might: “We should get back on track.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJnL1QrCN7v
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, you do that. I got what I needed.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSWHZuQLw8
Tatsumaki opened the window next to her and flew out in search of her prey.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvQjkwb4uF
Midnight: “Ugh, tell me why we put up with her again.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ahyWT1EUJ
Snipe: “Ha, you’re just jealous Tatsumaki and her sister beat you in the most attractive female heroes ranking.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9BLTvxXfmp
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8niOP7VLHI
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Qc4rP59Z3
All Might: ‘If only I was at my prime…’
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0HyJFfvDn
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEtnyf6Ni8
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrINownbbs6
She understands that they would be shaken by the attack, but there’s something else wrong.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGuSypnz7S
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVeiBhPC5o
No, what’s wrong is when she suddenly stops and looks colder than usual. But that doesn’t compare to Izuku.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡteUWXRHXCP
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNx3eL74Lc
Tatsumaki won’t pick up her calls, and Fubuki is always busy. Enough is enough.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oEMeMfXqv
It’s time for a family get-together.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDta0ryOMr
While eating at the table in uncomfortable silence, Inko makes her move.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJK37uCd0Y
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ7PDldmcE5
Izuku: “… I don’t know. I’m not in the mood.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqo1sPIKRh
Kiri: “…Nh.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2h3JBM97A
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkkB1gLq5F
Izuku: “… I don’t think that’s possible.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Lxv3GGiO6
Inko: “Sweetie, please. I’m worried, and I… want to help. Just a few hours with your sisters.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cfWvuFjLs
Izuku looks at Kiri, who looks back. She smiles, trying to bring some warmth back into his life.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjthzBEyeeP
Kiri: “I would… like it. Can we?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqBosrKaDI
Inko: “See? Kiri is willing to try it.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAQ7rRT7dZJ
Izuku: “…Okay.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBoqjy8A7s4
Inko: “Great! Now I just have to get Fubuki and Tatsumaki.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDC1YmXMTVO
Inko grabs her phone and dials Fubuki first. Hopefully, she has the time.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKo1VL3XZXF
Fubuki: “Yes, Mom?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtASXsoIKF
Inko: “We’re getting the family together for a nice relaxing day, just to have fun. What do you say?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvgVEcEuQ1
Fubuki: “I would love to, but-”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHI8rF6037
Inko: “Fubuki, please. I feel like… I’m losing you all. Izuku barely talks, and even Kiri can’t get to him.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCC7VQnCIl6
Fubuki: “He what? What’s wrong with Izuku?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ163J6ml8rL
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHIvWBi5h8K
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8L27fqfPu
Inko: “Yes!”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6XFwJz01g
Fubuki: “But how will you get Tatsu to come? She’s been… distant recently.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI1uybkZbeE
Inko: “It might be underhanded, but it’s for her own good.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh8zVWddb0k
30 minutes later
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1qUeaxQeb
Tatsumaki bursts through the front door, ready to tear apart whoever dared to attack her home.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT6BNBdqUPK
Tatsumaki: “Izuku! Mom! Where-”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOu3z1TZ6We
Instead of a crisis, she sees a normal living room with her whole family present.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9SdLa40hUY
Tatsumaki: “… What the fu-”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFYFT2u1TY
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAlGE3d0wy9
Tatsumaki closed her eyes and pinched her nose. Her heart was about to break out of her chest, and it was for nothing!?
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOFj1cNytf
Tatsumaki: “…Why… why would you do that to me?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJViwkl2qIp
Inko walked to Tatsumaki and hugged her softly.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsGKgLx1tjw
Inko: “Because I’m worried, and we left off on a terrible note. I don’t want to lose you.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWlTJR7yqxS
Tatsumaki: “Mom, you won’t lose me. But nearly giving me a heart attack just to say that, really?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpYD9ACpxPK
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3IvT6jIlU
Tatsumaki: “… Villains don’t take breaks.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNf7UCeUpmk
Inko: “But heroes should. If they don’t, they might lose to those villains.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRt48ZvAPO
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, I could be on my deathbed and still beat them.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblfQV23meW
Inko: “Maybe, but I want my baby at 100%. That way she can better defend those precious to her, right?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxehjfTLsWs
The eldest daughter took a moment to think about it, glancing at her siblings before sighing in resignation.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6zqr5eYuLs
Tatsumaki: “…Just a few hours and that’s it.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsOTnaVCZPK
Inko: “Yes!”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDCFEY6aSH3
The first part is over; now she needs to find something for everyone to do.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADL0KMm7zr
She leads Tatsumaki further into the home, completing the family gathering. But that’s when Fubuki noticed something off about Tatsumaki’s eyes.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzpb3KgDZj5
Fubuki: “Sister… are you wearing… eyeliner?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3sWL23znNJ
Tatsumaki: “W-What? No!”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XHkUL4lIc
Inko: “Ohhh, has my baby finally decided to take her makeup seriously? Let me guess, it’s a boy, right?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡco3E7nV4iI
Tatsumaki: “No! We’re not like that!”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFG5jqdoCPF
Silence.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1R4XuLsMjX
Stunned silence and widened eyes are what you would see in this household. Even Izuku was taken aback.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLPI1glIM1G
We?
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRPKX5cfCkx
We imply two people.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡid0AYARpRo
Two people in this context mean a couple.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZsXOIul3Z
Tatsumaki being straight means it’s a guy. A he?
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPOpCa3Qonp
He?
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7aYWrtPfXO
HE!?
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7fBIzdW8S
Inko’s smile brightens like the sun while Fubuki leans her head against a wall.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt64psZN2LV
Tatsumaki: “Mom, wait-”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgpMcSe8ZH
Inko: “My baby girl has finally become a woman!”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktsb4mv1Vb
Tears stream down the mother’s face. She never said anything, but she was worried her daughter would never find a guy.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSNWrv9Nftb
Izuku: “No way.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5wFrXeTaC
Fubuki: “I can’t believe it, big sis got a boyfriend before me. How could this happen?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGXLUwUXIJ
Kiri: “New nephew or niece?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyYa7y3ufR
Tatsumaki’s face was beyond red at this point. She covered her face in shame.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqdnqTlxJ2
Tatsumaki: “Come on, stoooop. We’re just… coworkers.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMITd7QXdiu
Inko: “Does this ‘coworker’ have a name?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTT0li4ZMu
Tatsumaki: “…I’m not telling.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYq2yM6OYP
Inko: “Ohhhh, you can be so cute sometimes, Tatsu.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrQbnsUiWJ2
Izuku: “So is it true? You really have a boyfriend?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeZ2WqB47tO
Tatsumaki: “No! The only reason I’m wearing makeup is to… cover up the bags.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNx1ScbRCH
The once joyful atmosphere sobered as the family looked at Tatsumaki.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxMgUB0Y7a
Fubuki: “Sister, how long has it been since you’ve slept?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjSPJQbWeEs
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, I sleep enough.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfjpphR6sSY
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHkjuRhtBJ
Tatsumaki: “Izu, Y-You can’t sleep?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcYiDRQsCJ
Izuku: “It’s been… a bit difficult.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEpwVFMdOl
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyBALrdavdW
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNePj78ppWa
Tatsumaki: “Okay, let’s do this then. If you really think it will help.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecEszwZmoO
Inko: “Great!”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOUCswfXhhG
Izuku: “But what are we doing?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIK7HKdZg4
Inko: “Haha, would you believe me if I said I didn’t plan that far ahead.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpyp88WeEE
Fubuki: “Mom…”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCBTgchw9z
Inko: “Oops. But don’t worry! By the time you all dress yourselves in something casual, I will have come up with something.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsjW9Yfj8XX
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwpXKPjAs9
Izuku had simple gray pants and a white shirt with an open blue hoodie over it.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPVdrlCgwQ
Kiri wore a long-sleeve yellow shirt that was a size too big but emphasized her cuteness.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOxZYluoar
Fubuki had a red dress shirt and a long gray skirt. Together with sunglasses, it made her look truly stylish.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7cJ3RrHP5Y
Tatsumaki wore a black shirt with a biker jacket over it and a dark frilly skirt.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIFV2bsBMk
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡviErA7rO0v
Inko: “You all look great. Okay, my plan is that we go to the amusement park.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qMlMx4jkk
Fubuki: “Sounds good, we can take my car.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLij7svJr5i
Tatsumaki: “Why drive when we can fly?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwbv0iUbWL
Fubuki: “Because not all of us can fly, and it’s pretty far.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LB4VreDFt
Tatsumaki: “You carry Mom, I carry Kiri. Think of it like training.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsD8Kzg7Cxr
Fubuki: “Training? They’re not that heavy.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAhgJfpaWMi
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwC7xCXPHQ
Fubuki: “We also got in trouble for using our quirk.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUMdNKju4n
Tatsumaki: “We’re heroes now; they won’t say anything. Now come on.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsqgOZwFRh
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwuUyWqwf6
Fubuki: “Izu?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBURWYBgBXZ
Tatsumaki: “What’s wrong?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4DTdXR0rO4
Izuku was outside looking up at them, seemingly hesitating to use his quirk. Not wanting to worry them though, he shakes his head.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMqFRbcovt
Izuku: “N-Nothing.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡneo2xt5XUc
He slowly lifts himself and joins them in the sky.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DuqpmAAUq
Tatsumaki: “Great, now try to keep up.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZc75CSlpOi
Fubuki: “No, we’re not blasting off.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGu6A0BI2Lw
Inko: “I would prefer a more leisurely flight. I love looking at the world below pass by.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9fKCOjZ0P
Izuku: “Agreed.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDHbVBReKH
Kiri: “Nh.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbKdvealoi
Tatsumaki: “Darn, outvoted. Fine, we can go grandma speed.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmLE1G0JCx
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIsvekgev5
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeaW2rAVvup
Kiri: “Colorful.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdYkrftkoE
Inko: “Yep, I’m glad it’s giving you a good first impression, Kiri. So gang, what’s first?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPACYcUhrpL
“Bumper Cars!” “Roller Coaster.” “Food!” “Ferris Wheel!”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7XgpJyGzL5
It seemed like everyone had different desires.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBavFEYnbfH
Tatsumaki: “A Ferris wheel? Fubuki, come on! That’s boring.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGEACb7V0cx
Fubuki: “Aren’t we too old for bumper cars?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4P6CCXXOi7
Tatsumaki: “Scared of losing? I understand.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTVLNMi8CmG
Fubuki: “Ha, from what I remember, I always beat you at those.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIMACW7ol6
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28GybRYCg2
Tatsumaki: “Things will be different this time.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUoJ3vobEW
Inko: “Okay, you all want to do something different. How about we play for it? Jan-ken-pon!”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjIzNg1N6mr
Tatsumaki: “And you said I was the one being too much of a kid.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMztXBnONL
Izuku: “Does sound fair, though.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXaLJ8RXH9b
Kiri: “Nh.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHHoybCdss
Fubuki: “Let’s do it.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU649OxA444
Inko: “Great! Now get ready.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd8tXcQCKjZ
Everyone got into battling position.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqpDFTzPOYq
Inko: “Jan!”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡud4EHtOQ5C
Izuku: “Ken.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrrYMh1nG7d
Tatsumaki: “Pon!”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTvxG6y8Ea
The result? Fubuki won.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5J1a5XI15y
Tatsumaki: “Darn it!”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOvYvBG41s
Fubuki: “Ferris wheel it is.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKABKUMg50F
Inko: “We play again to decide in what order we’ll go in.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8OEdzUprOw
The group played again, and at the end, the schedule looked like this.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrUUiMsjQV0
Ferris Wheel, Bumper Cars, Food, Shooting Range(Inko’s choice), and Roller Coaster.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocB5vAK5QE
Plan set, the family entered the amusement park and had some fun.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BFS6Q8kho
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQTG5D6NoT
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNT3PZvTPm5
Fubuki: “So we’ll buy another round or two, right?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡby0khqjLV8
“Yep.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuD1ulYmlWS
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxKA2YDTDd
Next was the Bumper cars. The family was nothing but smiles throughout the whole game; it was good to return to simpler times.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ64BYNOfuzW
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2YPtsPm2NS
Inko: “Haha, don’t underestimate your mom, kids. I’ve been driving before you were all born.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmsGKHzScJS
Fubuki: “You still need to beat me, the current champion of bumper cars.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWydu6wtZi9
Inko: “Former champion, you mean. Here I come!”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTF14pBpgq7
It was a close match, but in the end, the mother won.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZE9u0KfYot
Inko: “Hahahaha!”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8qWmRsonzO
Fubuki: “I have to admit, Mom, you’re a good driver.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBlDZmdQJ1
Kiri: “Nh.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5oJOlvOzy
Tatsumaki: “You should show those skills more often. You usually drive like a snail.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3unUNtnOmJ
Izuku: “I don’t think me and Kiri could survive Mom doing some of those moves.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYCnvPXplI
Kiri: “No, no.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdmKAO4ti3N
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFzVVshxFki
Kiri: “Mmmmmm!”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRWBufNNb6
Cotton Candy.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmtIKXLSV0
Fubuki: “You two have a ridiculously big sweet tooth.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91amdKwsfn
Tatsumaki: “And we have no shame. Right, Kiri?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctdAtSdb9i
Kiri: “Nh. Love it.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAt90GQyi0
Fubuki hasn’t completely accepted Kiri yet, but she can now admit she’s cute with a smile.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOs0goCSWZP
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMhY5HJ1hmz
Inko got four massive cinnamon rolls.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfbUEsU9fM
Inko: “What? It’s a free day today; I can splurge a bit.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9xAx5ZTuU
Izuku got some sherbet ice cream.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzvfc2r5bz
Fubuki, the most normal, got a strawberry smoothie.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgTercZLbfD
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0MVMroVSo
Fubuki: “You moved the shot with your powers.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOlHiXc0SKa
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqBlZlXTHGn
Kiri: “Yes.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1OEkYt0LJ
Tatsumaki and Kiri dashed back to the food stalls while Fubuki sighed.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsMwSYBAv2
Fubuki: “I swear they’ll bankrupt us at this point.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpincXGeuRg
Izuku: “At least they’re having fun.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7rDJPlEHu
Inko: “Yeah. But… what about you, sweetie? How do you feel?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5yUV4mJgf
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCuTBOfDEU
Izuku: “Y-Yes, I’m… glad I came. It’s fun hanging out with you all again.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbbxnTtqa0
Inko hugs her son.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIKUh3dGfY
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5hdY0iFtgy
Izuku: “I… will. Thank you, Mom.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxYRlWd87E
Inko: “Good. And the same applies to you, Fubuki.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcRMQrAhD4
Fubuki: “Huh? Me?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVesOFeafs
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uglP9ZI4H
Fubuki: “R-Really? I…. didn’t notice. I’ll try to make more time, mom, I promise.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOGHeeQUcxM
Inko: “That’s all I ask.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0lV2oXThkb
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9v3X7Wdx4
It was a great time; that is, until they got off the ride.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgMeuOiaj9
Inko: “Ugh… maybe we should have eaten after the Roller Coaster.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7RGCGyqj2
Izuku: “Are you okay?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIKzu2AZ8g
Inko: “I think… I need to go to the bathroom. Wait for me!”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zb5YGsDn2
Inko rushes to the bathroom while everyone else waits for her.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAetwHnSx1
Fubuki: “I should have stopped her when she went to eat more cinnamon rolls.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9jj5LbyOC
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIi0iHPbtL
Fubuki: “… You’re right.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdg5cGWPbPo
Tatsumaki: “What the heck is this!?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3nARKIhm2X
The two espers look to their older sister, who seems to have found a new attraction.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1x0CPkXX77
Izuku: “Kiri, can you wait for Mom?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsuDhuV6vE
Kiri: “Nh.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkpQcNtpJU
Izuku: “Thanks.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfD1jLamrW
The duo walked up to Tatsumaki, who was near what seemed to be a haunted house.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXlaKzGouB
Izuku: “That’s strange. Was this always here?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3uO3NRrqk
Fubuki: “It is strange to have a haunted house in an amusement park.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKn7ieTFWN
Izuku: “Some people find amusement in being scared.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdNAQ6dA8V0
Tatsumaki: “Freaks, I say. Who wants to be scared?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAAWKRtfsJl
The trio looked at the building for a few moments before Fubuki broke the silence.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYjFCUSLmu
Fubuki: “So Tatsu, thinking of going in?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdxdAcBu2I9
Tatsumaki: “W-What?! Of course not! I was just wondering why something like this was here.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEynq0Bs59H
Fubuki: “I don’t know, sounds like you WANT to go in, but you’re too scared to.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqCinQaNLpR
Tatsumaki: “HUHHHH, NO WAY!”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjBPQ8bmhv
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJuxLrFQHiG
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!”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP16haBZ0Aa
And there she goes, into the dark house of horrors. Izuku stares at Fubuki until she notices it.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiP9FRh2uCm
Fubuki: “What?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6QFdWRWO4
Izuku: “…That was mean.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnHE05wArM
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?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpT4zfTXYi
Izuku: “And would you look at the time? I have to get back to Kiri.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGWc3cYy1wH
Fubuki giggles as Izuku walks back the way he came. But as he does, he sees a familiar face.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk974w9E0od
Izuku: “Tsuyu!”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRNAjxamS2
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡezpe6vQn5I
Tsuyu made her way to Izuku, making sure her siblings were behind her.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvXHG3eqTSp
Tsuyu: “H-Hello, Midoriya. H-Here with your family too?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegkoEJsB4c
Izuku: “Yes. Are these your siblings?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMwZSHflxDE
Tsuyu: “Yes. Satsuki, Samidare, this is Izuku Midoriya. T-The one I was telling you about. Say hi.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0aYSUeYpCF
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI82kfVCiz5
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-”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1s7LlcZO0z
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe81QOs2fRi
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsDSjOolYt
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOtFNH0c2fQ
Izuku: “Y-Yeah, the villains… I-I-It’s fine. I-I was being too forward. I’ll… leave.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrbPyies64h
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeqCbycevpH
As for Izuku, his heart races and breaks at the memory of what he did during the attack. The monster he became.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx9j5sx61Cm
Before he can become lost in the guilt and shame, he feels Kiri hug him.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOxD4mCX4dM
Kiri: “Onii…”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLoKOGPjOY
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiQ8eDV4nOj
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWzW8PP1tdI
She lets him go and scratches her skin.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo924jbYt8c
Kiri: “I’m… sorry.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuSyo5mvugK
Izuku: “… I know.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFwcojsqba
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnLYJltojo
He laughed when Tatsumaki claimed there was a real ghost in the haunted house and for everyone to watch out.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdxn1AiXBV
He smiled when Fubuki didn’t believe it and teased Tatsu again.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLa42kNKGLs
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UATbEb1mi
It was almost nighttime when they got home.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1fgsPKB4Y
Tatsumaki: “I have to admit, today was fun.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMS5qqW0EEk
Fubuki: “I’m glad you got us all together, Mom.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vi3W0RaLA
Inko: “You’re welcome. Are you going to stay?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXruRg14iV
Fubuki: “Sure.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXKvYSO1Tc
Tatsumaki: “I don’t think I can make it home anyway.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZR5mzwAXz
Inko: “Great! Kiri, you can sleep with me so Fubuki can have her room back.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnTCJhrCAi
Kiri: “…Nh.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRTLIf30wc
And so it was, the family cleaned themselves and got ready for bed. But before Tatsumaki fell into her bed, Izuku approached her.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrovbV8Pkj
Izuku: “Tatsu, before you go to bed, I have a question.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38sUuW5jgh
Tatsumaki: “Sure, what is it?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9rILozWSy
The brother led her to the empty living room and sat down. Tatsu, sensing a serious conversation, sat down next to him and waited.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6G5dY35Uj
Izuku: “Tatsu, how does it feel to be so powerful? Are you ever… scared of it?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWOrC9dsDKs
Tatsumaki: “Izu, why are you asking me this? What’s happening?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8zG3D7LoRr
Izuku: “Please, just answer me.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6cMUCKPAdH
She sighs before answering.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0t2BFW6PU
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkYsqGaH4i
She doesn’t let her brother see the burden such power gives you or the heartbreak that comes when you fail despite it.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4asMHcoMG1
All Izuku sees is his amazing and powerful big sister.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyn9CSaKW4Q
Tatsumaki: “As for the second question…”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUlKuLJVunG
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLU87p9vCY9
She wonders if there is something more to her brother’s quirk.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67zomdQB6O
So with that in mind, she changes her answer and lets some vulnerability show.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrH7Zu1X2F
Tatsumaki: “There were only two times when I was ever scared of my power or even resentful of it.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TJzqnLWEm
Izuku: “R-Really? Why?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsQwFT5mQn
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKj4TbKeHQT
Izuku: “W-What did you do?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwiS223vABX
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEe3ElzCJZh
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFbEEUuJtK
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?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr40i5jK25g
Izuku: “Wow… I didn’t expect this from you.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmVX2ZduLP
Tatsumaki: “Hey! I have my big sister moments from time to time.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRkdmx7blp
Izuku: “Hahaha, I know. Thanks, Tatsu. I won’t disappoint you; I’ll… master my quirk.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBa7l3fscS
Tatsumaki: “I expect nothing less. Now.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78d8DM2AlW
She gets up and stretches.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMWQHJSDNY
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCXbco45Ooh
Izuku: “Right, good night, Tastu.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKaGvFHiDDj
Tatsumaki: “Sweet dreams, Izu.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHN7I2Pc06V
Sweet dreams… huh?
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAeyH92NIAh
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfcD0KFDAZ
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBw1lQQcSN4
Once again, she failed to be there for him. She could feel his negative feelings, and it was terrible. Confused, painful, and alone.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLV2I0O89a
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpbOykdO6lS
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ42bpzGv5YO
Panicking a bit, she called out telepathically.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjnXOCqxQTs
Kiri: “Izuku? Where are you?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXAR2Ts9Wqh
After a moment, she got a response.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnDokzForE
Izuku: “Roof.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw9fXsXyIkZ
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hWKruLaFI
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdv1QUt6HJZ
Kiri: “Izu.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD42FKMID8f
Izuku: “Couldn’t sleep either?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpiKvQG1J0
Kiri: “Nh.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGxy6CPVTv
Izuku: “…I’m sorry if I… scare you. I’ll get better at using my quirk; I have to.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqGhc9bpPN
Kiri: “You don’t scare me.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0S197vgMXl
Izuku: “Then why do you shiver when we’re together?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uqBaJCKbg
Should she tell him? He doesn’t know how his… outburst affected her. Would telling him just make things worse?
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡceMtKLkF78
Izuku: “You don’t have to say anything; I know.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVoctIeTGA
Kiri: “Know… what?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNyDliDST5
Izuku: “How what I did affected you.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkw4UkoYYd9
Her eyes widen.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bcgfD8uNt
Kiri: “How?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbytOTketam
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctot9J4KmP
Kiri: “… Nh.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHna9OBTAX
It happened not that long after the UA attack, a sudden jump in power. She felt… more complete somehow.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVwz3YmI8B
Izuku: “That’s why… I understand why you don’t want to touch me. I’m… sorry, Kiri, for what I did.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuLo4mkFNT6
Kiri: “Don’t apologize; you were just trying to save me.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeD8X1wFdjR
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtwNxPzZ4C
His hands tighten around the railings enough to dent it a bit.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡal5iI4ZmgI
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRaHBFLIqr
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGp97mkj7yc
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3mvkfd2d4
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJjQtmeNS2
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.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRZkBy0j0j
Kiri shakes her head.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqf2qtNGb27
Kiri: “I want to stay. Izu, I… ”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZ4N4lA9Km
That familiar feeling returns, strong enough to smother the itchiness. This time, she follows through.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBckcAMeB66
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJfxh1pTUuM
Izuku: “K-Kiri?”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQN9hYCKnfh
Kiri: “You’re not alone; we’ll both improve and become heroes together. I won’t leave your side again, Izu.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpeiCelLQ5q
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEmZp6HjwQ
Kiri: “Come.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfFhbThesb
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPaVqLPWgO3
But she doesn’t; she hugs his chest and buries her face in his neck.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzHJilNn3H
The feeling is horrible.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDh7vopHye
Like several insects crawling and biting her skin. Her body is shaking like a leaf in a hurricane.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqzIg9koieE
Izuku: “Kiri, stop. Go back to Mom’s room.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0OH5RtL8j
Kiri: “N-No.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rc6Tneve7
She won’t back down from this. She hangs on for dear life as the sensation gets worse.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZsvQf0nqv
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgo1QmUYaU
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNe47tjDgwc
Kiri: “I-It will be okay. It will be okay.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6OHVRLHeQD
Izuku: “Kiri…”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡseqrHEmX5l
And like a storm, eventually, it passes. As if she passed some threshold or test, the sensation stopped.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97pSrSgwWI
The insects disappear, and the feeling is replaced with the warmth they both missed. Kiri stops shaking and settles comfortably into Izuku.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6XKsUPtnO
He senses this and sighs with relief.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9NRBLPfDrI
Kiri: “See? I told you, I won’t leave your side again.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyL21uNR0F
Izuku closes his eyes and smiles. He really has amazing sisters. He embraces her tightly, conveying all the gratitude he could.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHH29l4wKNZ
Izuku: “Kiri, thank you.”
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBMnBG4EAT
She smiles as the two finally get some restful sleep.

Fanfic Adapted: Tatsumaki: Tornado of Trouble by Whackybiscuit [2022]
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡable4Yy0Oh
(WARNING: it’s 18+. This is where Arashi comes from. Their history is similar to Chapter 1. But their current relationship is more original.)
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fV5lMiIow
A/N: Damn, this was way bigger than I thought. It was fun though, so I hope you enjoyed it.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1K8Hrk1mu
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUkbYKN5At
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXPmg3t8Rr
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4mspxtgyjk
If she is not able to get One For All, I will lose darn near all interest in this ship.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaRme1f3wL
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtlzLEoe9t
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1Odzy0Uuy
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhnOGTIACs6
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoFfCyITIO
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8N6IaGFcf
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.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkvakRxGa75
For example, Tomura can kill him and he has no resistance to mental attacks.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvatC6ktThg
For those that don’t want Saitama in this story at all, comment now or forever hold your peace.
157Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrnNItLRGd
Well, that’s all I want to talk about. Till next time.
