#Tamashi san

[littleeyesofpallas]

Kirchenlied[キルヒエンリート], German for "Hymn," (Lit. "Church + Song") with the Japanese [聖唱]: "Holy/Sacred + Chant." (Note the consistent use of [聖]:"Holy/Sacred" over other terms for the "godly," "divine," or "heavenly.")

Sankt Zwinger[ザンクト・ツヴィンガー] German "Saint Courtyard/(Outer)Ward," Japanese [聖域礼賛]: "Holyground + Praise/Worship." Weirdly disparate given how direct most of these terms have been so far.

Soldat[ゾルダート]: "Soldier"; [聖兵]: "Sacred/Holy Soldier(s)."

Kissui no QUINCY[生粋の滅却師]: "Quincy of Pure/Genuine/Trueborn," (Notably this is the first talk of Quincy blood purity as a concept, although in isolation that's not the overt implication just yet. Implication at the time was actually more in line with the idea that there were Quincy born -vs- Quincy made(like the recruited Arrancar), not that there were pure blood -vs- mixed blood.)

Schatten Bereich[シャッテン・ベライヒ] German, "Shadow Area/Sector" and Japanese [影の領域]: "Area/Region/Realm of Shadow(s)."

Heilig Bogen[神聖弓]: "Sacred Bow" in Japanese and "Holy Bow" in German. Weird that this only got named so late in the game.

LichtReich[光の帝国]: "Empire of Light" in Japanese, German for "Light Realm"

YHWACH no Kenpeitai[憲兵隊] "military police." Specifically that of the WWII era Imperial Japanese Army.

Sokken[側近]: "close associate; close aide; entourage; attendant; retainer"

Wake ataeru Chikara[分け与える力]: "Distributing Power/Ability" just like YWHACH's, sans the tamashi/soul.

Danchou[団長]: "leader of a delegation (body, party)" on the one hand it's a nice parallel term for the gotei's captains. But it seems like it's there to refer to a Quincy "Party" akin to the n*zi party.

Fuku-danchou[副団長]: "vice party leader" literally just the same prefix that turns the gotei Taichou:Captain into Fuku-Taichou:Lieutenant(Vice-Captain)

GIFT BALL[毒入り・ボール]: "Poisoned Ball" using German Gift for "Poison"

Shinkei[神経]: "Nerve(s)" pretty straight forward.

CHOCOLATE INGLÉS (just ignore that I copied the "ka" there at the end by mistake...) "English Chocolate" very conspicuously Lille says this in Spanish. It's pretty loose but I think the suggestion is that he is/was an Arrancar? A super weird detail to throw out there and then never properly address.

Quincy Stuff: [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]

@zankokukami sent - “I’m already out of foolproof ideas, so don’t ask me how.”

Mara huffs in laughter, a far cry from the cute giggle she puts on for her hostess job. Majima had survived the Vampire of Tamashi first onslaught, passed a test she knew he'd ace, so he doesn't need to have all the flowery bullshit anymore. Sure, sometimes it was fun to keep it on just to drive home her charming innocence in the eyes of her clients and coworkers, but when it was just them in this booth, away from the others and given some kind of privacy so long as they were quiet, she'd allow him to see what was underneath. It wasn't much, there was never truly any substance to her beyond her mission in her eyes, but it was what little respect she could give. After all, he was still coming to her club, still giving them good money and giving her good booze. She'd pay back that kindness.

"Surely the old Lord of the Night has better date ideas than going to the gym, yeah?" Mara had done her research, but it was also hard to bounce from Tokyo and Osaka without hearing that name at least once. She continued on without looking at him, focusing on her glass and stirring it, "I've heard things that made me wish I was born in the 80's, even if the bubble poppin' makes it all kind of depressin' when ya look back. Woulda loved to work in the Grand, but the boss says it too high profile these days. So c'mon, what did ya have your girls do back then? Your professional take on it could help me out a lot, Majima-san."

Iyami the Daredevil - Mutsuku no Tamashi Nayuta Made (Osomatsu-san season 3 op 2)

[ Magnetic | @suck-my-tomato | verse; highschool ]

It was the beginning of junior year, and Kimiko was only just starting to explore new avenues of herself that had otherwise been shut away or left just beneath the surface; simply uncovered all the while. About six weeks had passed since everything slipped from her desperate grasp; admittedly, that hot August afternoon was still much at large in the recent recess of her memory. Sasuke betrayed her trust in a way that split the recently shaken Tamashi in two pieces. Now, those separate halves seemed constantly at odds with one another.  Take tonight, for example. An earlier version of Kimiko wouldn’t have been caught dead at such a prolific party as this one; at least, not without the shield of her boyfriend to ground herself with. Initially, it was with all intents and purposes that the volatile girl stay home and admittedly soak in her largely self-inflicted misery. Instead, her friends caught wind of this terrible plan and insisted that she make a ‘statement’ by showing up to the party despite the recent heartbreak. According to them, ( for certainly they were experts in her particular malady )  Kimiko should be over him already.  But she wasn’t. Even so, the girl played along. With a little fashion help from her appointed girl-boss friends, a bold and playfully flirtatious outfit was strung together last minute. It wasn’t without her own influence: her favorite pair of fishnets beneath ripped and faded blue jeans, along with a skin-tight black bodysuit borrowed by Ino. Facing the mirror, the Tamashi snuffed out an oncoming blush. Curves accentuated, the cut of her hips exposed thanks to the shape of the bodysuit, sans bra left her chest at the whim of a mere cold breeze.. Not to mention the exposing rip at the bottom of her left ass cheek. Just what kind of message was she trying to send, here?

 Later, a sparkly and vibrant red gloss was wiped off in the car ride there, leaving her lips tinged with a faint pomegranate stain. Sakura would not let the Tamashi get away without a dab of clear gloss: something about “Accentuating your best assets.” Uncomfortable and ridiculous heels were discarded in the back seat as Kimiko slid into her coveted blocky half-platform boots instead. She wouldn’t lose her entire sense of self in the wake of heartbreak -- she couldn’t allow herself to become another obnoxious lead role in an overly-done romcom trope. For if she had arrived in the complete get-up that Sakura and Ino initially planned for, Kimi would feel as though she were wearing someone else’s skin. As it was, the traumatized girl had issues enough staying centered in the present moment instead of slipping off into an incomprehensible string of flash-bulb memories. While Kimiko had always been a tad more alternative in comparison to most cookie-cutter teenage girls attending their school; it was undeniable that the Tamashi had grown a new razor-sharp edge to her. Most blamed it on the bad-blood spilled over the once fairytale relationship now recently severed, when in reality that had only been a straw to break her thinly veiled rage. Let them believe that Sasuke was her undoing: that was a false story she could accept sooner than the certain truth. That fucking letter.

Once arrived to the party, the usually overtly vigilant Tamashi decided that putting blinders on was a far better option than possible confronting his visage head-on. A mixed drink was procured almost immediately, and no one could tell her for certain what exactly the concoction consisted of. In no time at all, Kimiko decided that it didn’t really matter. She would drink it down anyway; even if she’d skipped out on dinner that night. And while she wasn’t about to go searching for him, she was keen enough to know that he was in attendance, tonight. Sasuke was a popular guy; inheritably invited to every house party regardless of which school was hosting. Besides, she’d grown a special knack for picking out his particular presence, even in a flush crowd. Undeniably, he was here. If he had someone on his arm so soon after they’d ( rather violently ) separated.. Even if it couldn’t come as a surprise per say, it would still send her into a ricochet. Not that she would allow such turmoil to express outwardly -- no, not again. Not after the last time landed both of their asses in a juvenile holding cell.

Either way, any collision course they may have been on was cut short when her guardian angels ( Sakura and Ino ) promptly steered her out of the kitchen and off into the room adjacent. Awaiting the trio of girls was more familiar faces. Choji had planted himself on the couch, rightfully hoarding the snacks. Kiba exclaimed their arrival with nothing short of his usual clamor: howling his praises for each girl’s get-up as though personally hired by Ino to become their hype-man and draw attention from any surrounding crowd. At the center of the storm, steady chestnut eyes lay fixated on the Tamashi.

Shikamaru; a true friend in the wake of all the wreckage Kimiko had recently been made to wade through. Him and.. his endless supply of nicotine ( and lately, marijuana too ). Perhaps Kimiko should’ve realized that it might be concerning -- how eager she felt, seeing the Nara. Momentarily, her ass would plant itself on the arm of the chair he’d sunk himself into. She’d pluck the dwindling joint from his firm-pressed lips and take a quick sip of that frayed-nerve smoothing ganja, hand holding over his kneecap only to steady herself upon the precarious seat of a plush rocking-chair. Then, as smoke expels from her parted lips, Kimiko’s honeyed stare would follow the curling trail and from across the room..

Their gazes would connect in a pure display of utter magnetic electricity. Admittedly, she wasn’t used to that look -- almost possessive, if she had to use one word to describe it. Then again, all the parties previous.. Sasuke had never been further than an arm’s length away, let alone adorning a new gang on the other side of the room. That piercing stare; it shot right through her and elicited a ripple up her spine. After what felt like an eternity stretched out between them, Kimiko garnered the strength to pull away from the silent exchange: but it wasn’t without true effort. Subsequently, her hand quickly pulls itself off of Shikamaru’s knee, the hand-rolled joint returned to the Nara promptly thereafter. As if she’d been caught red-handed, doing something incriminating. Kimiko was no longer tethered to Sasuke anymore, but even so.. A little shot of adrenaline kickstarted her system in that moment, and that had to count for something, right?

In truth, Kimiko wasn’t all too certain that she could ever be over him.

Tamashi: “Hello, Mori-san. We have a gift for you.”

Satoshi: “A gift? I don’t even know you. Why do you want to give me a gift?”

Tamashi: “Please accept it as a blessing.”

Satoshi: “I... Thank you? Thank you.”

Satoshi: It’s... It’s just fish. So many fish. More than I could ever catch at the pond or on the docks. Incredible.

Round 2: Tamashi vs Ameko!

@taiyuu-high-oct​ 

Tamashi is going to die. Again. For the 50,000,000th time. A cool wind blows by and he sudders, still not used to the Taiyuu gym shorts showing off his scarred legs to the world. “I hope Laccadaisy makes some long gym pants soon....” Tamashi is with the rest of 1B, hanging near the back as they walk to the Sundown Zone. He hears vague discussions about plans of attack  and some loud bickering. Tamashi closes his eyes and sighs, anxiety creeping up his throat. 

“Hey, are you ok?” Tamashi jumps, shaking the thoughts away and finding that Senshi is walking next to him “Are you still anxious?” Tamashi nods slowly, looking down “Hey- I’m sure you’ll do great! We made the cotton candy cookies after all!” Senshi smiles at him, and Tamashi can’t help but smile back. “Th-thank you Senshi-san…” A blush creeps onto Tamashi’s face as Senshi rejoins their conversation with Gakusa and Kiru, trying to stop the two from throwing down then and there. “Why are they so nice to me…”

Laccadaisy’s voice rings out “Welcome first years, to the Sundown Zone!” She turns and throws an arm up to show off the area. The Sundown Zone was a mess of buildings in a city-like landscape. The sheer amount of detail put into it sends waves of excitement over everyone, Tamashi included. As Laccadaisy started to explain the rules, Tamashi couldn't help but zone out, looking at the buildings in anticipation. "And here's who you're fighting!"

"Ah!-" Tamashi jumps as a large screen pops up from the ground, displaying everyone's names brightly. When Tamashi got to his name he froze. "Tokachi-chan…" 

He looked to his left and flinched when he saw Ameko staring right back at him. She sent him a warm smile that he returned, albeit a bit shaky as his blush returned. "Dammit! Get a hold of yourself!" Tamashi shakes his head and looks back to Laccadaisy. 

"Now! Your homeroom teachers will take you to your areas- don't kill each other and have fun!" Laccadaisy beams and waves the kids goodbye, walking off to what Tamashi assumes is a spectators area. 

"Alright 1A! Come with me!"

"Follow me 1B."

Tamashi lets out a nervous sigh and grabs his sleeve tightly, drifting into his anxious thoughts until a warm voice snapped him out of it. 

"Good luck Seisei-chan!" Ameko had walked up to him, smiling.

"Th-thank you Tokachi-chan, good luck t-to you too!" 

------------------

Tamashi and Ameko stand on opposite sides of the field, their view of each other obscured by a tall building in the middle of the field. Tamashi guesses the building has about 5 or 6 floors. The orb wasn’t in plain sight so the two both came to the conclusion that the orb was in the building.

“Ready!”

Tamashi leans down, getting ready to run.

“Set!”

He needs to go as fast as he can, Ameko can outrun him. “Don’t forget to breathe-”

“GO!”

Tamashi sprints as fast as he can towards the building. He can hear Ameko yelling at what he presumes is her classmate. “Codenames? That’s a good idea… even if it’s bondage-san.” As he runs he sees Senshi about to be tackled by Yuu. Swallowing his anxiety he calls out “S-Senshi! Behind you!” Senshi whips around and dives out of the way, sending a quick smile and a thumbs up to Tamashi. He looks back towards the building and is happy to hear that Ameko is still distracted.

Tamashi runs through the wall of the building and takes no time searching for the orb, jumping up through to the next floor when he couldn’t find it. On the third floor Tamashi finally finds the orb, nestled nicely in a cardboard box. Tamashi freezes as he hears Ameko enter the building. “I need to go- now!” Tamashi looks to a window and decides to repeat his entrance exam, but the difference being the window can actually open and it doesn’t make nearly as much noise. And out the window Tamashi goes! He flips and activates his floating which slows down his fall, and pushes him towards his goal. When Tamashi’s feet hit the ground he breaks out into a sprint again.

Looking to his left, Tamashi can see Moya struggling to get the orb from Tsuki. Tamashi slows down for a second and focuses, lifting his arm up and to the right. The orb flies up from Tsuki’s grip and flies towards Moya, who catches it with a cloud, nodding in thanks. Tamashi smiles and plows forward. “Almost there!”

Until Senshi’s voice rings out.

“Seishin behind you!” 

Tamashi turns around to see Ameko going for a tackle. Tamashi holds the orb up high and makes his torso incorporeal, Ameko flying through him. Ameko rolls and goes for another attack, choosing to go for a punch to the stomach this time. Tamashi sidesteps and drops to the ground, leg sweeping out and knocking Ameko off her feet. “Sorry!” Tamashi yells out as he runs to the goal while Ameko gets to her feet. He looks over his shoulder to see her getting ready for another pounce.

But it’s too late. Tamashi is over the finish line. And he drops the orb in shock. “I won? I won!”

Ameko half hopped her way over, only just fully processing what just happened. “Congrats Seisei-chan! I’ll have to try harder next time haha!” She bounced on her feet.

 Tamashi laughed nervously and scratched the back of his neck. “Ah well… I don’t think I d-did too well…”

“Nonse-sense!” Ameko stomped her foot in mock-anger “You won! Now let's go get changed!”

“O-okay…”

------------------

Tamashi’s normally light and floating hair is currently flat against his back, wet from the shower. His fringe covers half of his face, making him look like The Grudge. He sits in between Senshi and Ameko, unwrapping a cotton candy cookie from last night and taking a bite. This catches Ameko’s interest, leaning on Tamashi’s shoulder “Hey Seisei-chan, what’s that? It looks good...”

Tamashi jumps in surprise at the contact “Oh! It’s a c-cotton candy cookie, Senshi-san let me help them make some last n-night. They’re really t-tasty...” At the mention of their name, Senshi looks at the two and joins in.

“I’m glad you like them!” Senshi smiles “I had a lot of fun making them with you!”

“Uwah! Senshi-chan you should teach me too!”

“Ah! Sure uh-”

Tamashi smiles as the conversation dwindles into Ameko begging Senshi for cotton candy cookies. 

“Is this what it feels like to have friends?”

“I love it…”

“This is Takakutou--”

“Now You See Me Now You Don’t is right, we have to use the code names!!”

There was a silence on the other end, followed by a heavy sigh. 

“...Holey Cow, reporting in.”

-----------------------

A week before, Ameko had been sitting in homeroom with the rest of 1A. It was a little energetic in the classroom, which had intimidated Ameko at first, but the careful excitement of 1A was quickly starting to grow on her. She appreciated the way that Lyrie-chan had a habit of lowering her volume when it got too loud for Ameko, and how it was becoming second nature for the person closest to Hiyasu-chan to put their arm around her when she seemed too cold. 

Ameko leaned against Lyrie-chan as the class chatted, feeling the warmth of her part-horse body taking over the coolness of Hiyasu-chan beside her. 

“Hey, guys!” 

Ameko’s voice carried over the others, and they all looked over at her, finishing up conversations and turning over in their spots; in a chair, or sitting on a desk, or enjoying the giant cuddle-pile that had collected around Ameko. 

“What’s up, Tokachi-kun?”

Inoue-chan raised an eyebrow and rested his chin on his hand. Ameko straightened in her spot, letting her hands flitt around her as she spoke. 

“We should have a secret comuni-ni-nation device!” Ameko declared. Inoue-chan paused for a second, before clarifying in a smooth, calm voice, “Communication device?” 

“Yes! That!” 

“How would we even do something like that?” Takakutou-chan snorted, rolling her eyes. It was, of course, to be expected of the grumpy girl who never seemed to care much for being a team player. The entire class gave each other a knowing, amused glance. 

“Like - like a walkie-talkie or something!” Ameko continued, “For when we’re doing training stuff.” 

“That’s actually not a bad idea.” Inoue-chan mused. “If we had the knowledge to do something like that, anyway.” 

“We probably could,” Spoke up a boy in the back. He was a transfer student, and had arrived that day in the train station alongside another late arrival, Otsuka-chan. 

“We can?” Ameko lit up. 

“Yeah. I could make some headsets and connect the transmission to some AM radio waves; if we all hit the same channel, we can talk to each other. They won’t hit a terribly long distance, and anyone with another radio can listen in, but they’ll work.” 

Ameko hopped up, her hair bouncing with her and a grin on her face. “You’re so super smart! Haaah, what’s your name again?”

“Funkee, Zeke.” 

Ameko blinked a few times. 

“Fu… foon-kee…?” She scrunched up her nose. 

“You can call me Zeke, if it’s easier for you.”

Ameko blushed, shaking her head. “That’d be really embarrassing. I could--” Her voice lowered, “--do you mind being called Kisai-kun?”

“Talented? Why?” 

“Because - because you’re making the radios!” Ameko bounced on her heels, feeling her quirk threatening to burst. “And if we have radios, we gotta have codenames!” 

There was a bubbling excitement in the class as they all huddled together, paper in hand… 

-----------------------

Fast forward to a week later, and their first hero lesson had started. Ameko quickly learned her field was connected to Inoue-chan, Gigi-san, Takakutou-chan, and the newest transfer, Sugiyama-chan. She had caught her just before they split up, handing her a headset and collecting a code name. 

She stood on the edge of a dilapidated city, looking at the aged buildings and the almost peaceful atmosphere. It would have been just Ameko, if her ears couldn’t pick up the faint chatter of her classmates. The overhead speaker boomed an excited set of instructions from Kyokkou-sensei, interrupted every so often by a mildly-irritated Kuzu-sensei. 

“Ready!”

Ameko crouched down, letting her foot skid slightly on the ground, gripping the concrete under her. 

“Set!”

Her hand brushed the dust-covered surface. Breath in. Breath out. 

“Go!”

The dust stirred as Ameko took off, and the familiar feeling of jumping high, so high, gave her a quick rush of excitement. When she was hopping, it almost felt like flying. Ameko felt like she was making good progress when -- 

“Shit!”

Ameko skidded to a stop when she saw one of her other classmates, Gigi-san, sprinting towards the goal. Behind them, an empty trash can that had sprout legs -- their quirk, Ameko knew -- was running along at a frankly impressive pace. A glob of lava flung out at the trash can, melting it and leaving the orb rolling away. 

Right at Ameko. 

“Bondage-san--” Ameko blushed as she spoke into the headset. “--how fast can you run?” 

“Pretty fast,” They replied, “Why?”

“I can kick the ball towards the goal, but you gotta catch it before it goes over.” 

“I have an idea.” Gigi-san sprinted towards the sidewalk, finding a bench and touching it. Their quirk made it come to life, and like an animal, pranced anxiously as Gigi-san climbed on. “Go.” 

Ameko kicked the ball, and Gigi-san hurtled after it, their opponent struggling to catch up. Without much hesitation, Ameko kept hopping towards her goal, and after a few minutes the radio crackled to life with a relieved, “Thanks, Hop To It.” 

Ameko spotted the shining from a window a few buildings ahead, and slowed down, slipping into the doorway with quiet focus. The building was run down, but maybe not as much as some of the others, because it was clearly sturdy. Dust coated the floor in a very thin layer, and the air had a heaviness that made Ameko’s breath hitch the wrong way. There were a lot of floors; Ameko figured at least five. With the winding rooms and nooks and crannies, it felt like hours (although in actuality, she had only been searching maybe five minutes) as she shifted boxes and climbed staircases. 

She tried to listen for her opponent, but she heard nothing. 

Although it would be lying to say that Ameko knew all of the kids in 1B well -- She had classes with them, but besides the people that she had gotten close with, she was much more focused with the familiar, family-like feeling of her own class. But Ameko had run into quite a few, and she could recognize a lot of them. 

Ameko had known Seisei-chan since the exam, and she had a pretty solid grasp on his quirk. She had gotten used to the way that he popped out of existence when he was startled, the way his heartbeat was a bit too slow whenever she went in to hug him. She knew that Seisei-chan was slow; maybe not to the average person, but definitely to someone who’s quirk was good with speed. 

Ameko really liked Seisei-chan. Some might even say that she loved him; that, of course, would depend on whether you believed love could even be accomplished after two weeks of school. But Ameko was also here for a reason. She was here to grow, to be a good hero, and Seisei-chan was too. 

If she didn’t try her best, even though she liked him, then she wasn’t being nice to either of them. 

“Hop To It, this is Now You See Me Now You Don’t, reporting in.” 

“What’s up?” Ameko whispered, opening one of the doors and poking her head in. 

“You’re fighting the purple ghost kid, right?”

“Yeah?” Nothing. Close the door, rush down the hallway, look in another door.

“He’s running towards the goal with the orb.” 

Ameko stopped. For a split second, she’s confused. She would have definitely heard someone come in; footsteps, breathing, little huffs and puffs and bumping around that, although not much, was enough for someone with sensitive ears. 

Unless, of course, he was invisible. And he couldn’t be touched -- or touch the things around him.

Ameko cursed a soft, “Sweets and sugar,” as she opened the window and launched herself out. “Where?”

“I’m bad with directions,” Sugiyama-chan admitted on the other end. After a beat of silence, Yukino-chan piped up, “You’re looking for Seishin-kun, right, Hop To It?”

“Yeah, I am.” 

“He’s nearby!” Yukino-chan assured. “Go three blocks East and two South, and he’ll be there.” 

This was, of course, something that the class had considered before the match; because of Yukino-chan’s quirk being like a person detector, she could easily direct people towards any targets. In preparation, they had all made sure to have compasses on hand. Ameko had to thank Tokei-kun for that idea. 

“Thanks a ton!” Ameko called out, and started sprinting in the direction. 

Seisei-chan was floating, fast but not as fast as Ameko. He saw her coming, and when she went to tackle him, he floated up and out of her grasp. 

Ameko rolled on the ground and popped back up, her feet skidding on the ground. Seisei-chan floated further down, eyeing her with apprehension. 

“Sorry, Tokachi-chan.” 

Ameko lurched forward again, and again, he flew back. Ameko quickly realized that this wasn’t going to work. 

Ameko had remembered the days afterschool in her backyard, in the makeshift training ground, trying to knock Gakutori-nii off of his feet. She’d try the same lunge. She remembered his slightly amused tone when he told her that it wasn’t a good idea -- Ameko would get tired a lot quicker than Gakutori-nii would. She bit the inside of her cheek and thought. 

Ameko’s quirk buzzed with energy waiting to be used. When Seisei-chan took a floating step towards his side of the goal, Ameko knew what she was going to do. 

When Ameko was little, she used hopscotch to try and control her quirk. She tried to stay in the squares by doing little jumps, because otherwise, she could hurt herself. Her quirk was one that she loved, but it was dangerous, too. 

Patience. Self control. Ameko tapped her foot on the ground and lunged, aiming higher. This was no problem for Seisei-chan; he ducked lower, instead. 

That was his mistake. 

She shifted her attack to kick his side, and he cried out in alarm, the ball rolling out of his arms and down the street. Ameko was fast; she scrambled, grabbing the orb and breaking into a run towards her goal. Seisei-chan floated after her at a speed that was actually a little startling for Ameko; she was faster, but if she made one wrong move, he’d catch up in no time. 

Ameko heard it before it was going to happen. She could hear most of her classmates’ fights from the headset, but Takakutou-chan’s boisterous, “We’ll see how you like this building, Tall Girl.” 

A building. 

“Holey Cow, this is Hop To It, reporting in. Did you say you’re going to bring a building down?” 

“I sure as hell am! Why do you care, Bunny Girl?” Takakutou-chan spat into the mic, followed by a grunt from what Ameko assumed was her battle. 

“Where are you? What’s your 20? I need to slow my opponent down.” Ameko ducked into an alleyway to her left, ran, then hopped a street over. The orb was cradled in her hands like a child. 

Takakutou-chan laughed haughtily. “Saving your ass, am I? I’m on the building on the corner -- it’s the one next to the burger shop.” 

Ameko clicked her tongue, and on her next hop, spotted it a few minutes away. “I need you to hold off on that building. Can you do that?” 

“Of course I can! What, you think I’m in trouble? I’m already winning the--” Takakutou-chan shrieked, and there was a crash, “--I’ve got Tall Girl under control!” 

“Great.” Ameko waited, and once she passed the building, she shouted a loud, “Now!” 

A lot of things happened at once. Behind Ameko, there was a rumbling, and the building Takakutou-chan described started toppling in on itself without the weight of the chunk she punched out. Ameko looked back, but kept going, and stumbled over the finish line orb in hand. Her chest heaved, and she slumped against a tree, the orb rolling at her feet. 

Ameko heard the call of, “Tokachi Ameko wins!”, but she was more focused on the sweet, satisfying taste of her candy. 

After the exercise and a shower, the bed Ameko rested on wasn’t her own. She closed her eyes, soaking in the quiet of a soundproofed room and the vibes -- the cool breeze of a fall night, brushing your cheeks and enveloping you in a refreshing embrace. She could feel the slow, steady rise and fall of breathing from the person she was laying on. 

Underneath her, Lana-chan let out a gruff oof as Gakutori-nii flopped on top of the two girls. “So, 1-A had radios, eh? Who’s idea wassit -- Bird knock-off?”

Ameko grunted as she went to twist, looking up at her best friend and his dumb, smug smile. She stuck her tongue out in return, blowing a raspberry. 

“It was my idea!” She bragged. 

He snorted, ruffling her hair roughly. “Not too bad, Amenee.”

Ameko couldn’t help the smile that infected her entire being.

Round 2: Hiyasu Shimokizu v Kottoba Kiru

@taiyuu-high-oct 

Special thanks to @astryelle for editing for me. 

Making friends at a new school was bound to be a challenge, especially when you’d only had one friend your whole life. Sure, Yacchan had come with her, but that didn’t stop Shimokizu from being slightly terrified of all the other students at Taiyuu High. 

Fortunately for her, one of the other students had almost immediately adopted Shimo into her group. Tokachi Ameko was charismatic and friendly in a way that Shimokizu wished she could be. Becoming a friend of Tokachi-san meant gaining the friendship of many of the other students in Taiyuu. Tokachi had come with two of her childhood friends, just like Shimokizu had come with Yameru. Tokachi, Ogura, and Gakusa were an odd trio, the latter two being standoffish and stern, but they had a companionship that Shimokizu really admired. 

When Tokachi-san had practically dragged Shimokizu into a joint lunch, she also saw Senshi-san Senshi, who she admired greatly for their talent in their one on one battle together. There were two other members class 1-B there. Kottoba-san, whose quirk was related to insults with the sharp tongue to prove it, was one. Tamashi-san, who floated almost as much as he walked, was the other. 

After an intense and emotionally exhausting encounter, Shimokizu started to form a rather great bond with Tama-san, they worked through overwhelming anxiety together, and there was something about being together in a struggle that brought people closer together. 

Gaku-san helped her with homework, and it… well, it was fantastic. She never did as well with her homework as she did after Gaku-san started helping her with it. He was a bit strange sometimes, and Ogura-san could be intimidating, but she loved having his help. 

Ogura-san and Kottoba-san, though. They were harder to get a read on. Ogura-san was distant, and Shimokizu wasn’t sure if she should approach her, but she tried to be polite when they were together. 

Kottoba-san, however… Kottoba-san didn’t seem to like her. Shimokizu wasn’t exactly sure what it was, but it seemed like Kottoba-san thought she was… well, simple. Not as interesting as the other members of their group. She wasn’t wrong, Shimokizu was a rather plain, boring girl. 

But she was fine! She had Yacchan, and Tokachi-san, and Gaku-san, and Tama-san. 

If making friends was the challenge Shimokizu expected, getting around the campus turned out to be the one she didn’t even consider. Most of Tokachi-san’s friends ended up with some sort of way to make it faster, but Shimokizu wasn’t any good with any of those things, and the only way to get something she could use was by leaving the island.

And leaving the island… no, she wasn’t ready to face that yet. 

So she ended up running around most of the time. 

Her phone buzzed as she hurried to the Sundown Zone. 

‘You’re going to be late, Mocchan.’ 

‘I’m coming I promise!’ 

‘Don’t text and run.’ 

‘Then don’t text me while I’m running!’ 

She spotted Kottoba-san’s skateboard leaned up against a wall, surrounded by other people’s rides, skates and such. The underside was explosive and bright, pleasant to look at. But it was a distraction, though a pleasantly bright one, and she hurried in. 

“Is everyone here? Good. Today marks your first official heroics class…”

Wolfsboon-sensei and Aurora-sensei explained that they would be doing another class versus class exercise, this time more collaboration between students was permitted, as their fields overlapped. 

“Help your classmates or hinder the other class, it’s all up to you,” Wolfsboon-sensei said. 

Aurora-sensei guestured dramatically to the board that listed their names and opponents. 

“Find your name, and then get in position! The exercise will start when the bell sounds.” 

Shimokizu held back as everyone gathered close to the board, then shuffled away to get prepared. 

‘Hiyasu Shimokizu vs Kottoba Kiru’. Shimokizu blinked at it. Kottoba-san’s… intimidating. Of all the people at Taiyuu, Kottoba-san confused Shimokizu the most; her quirk specifically. 

What would it feel like? What would she say? Shimokizu understood that Kottoba-san’s quirk was deadly, just like hers, but it had an element of confusion that she couldn’t quite figure out. 

Shimokizu managed to catch Aurora-sensei before she left. “Do we have to stay on the ground?” she asked. 

“Nope! Do what you want, as long as you don’t hurt your opponent.” Aurora-sensei pat her hair. 

“Hiyshi-chan! Here, take this! You forgot it.” 

“S-sorry, I’ll tr-try to do b-better.” Shimokizu took the radio from Tokachi-san. “Thank y-you.” 

“Haha, don’t worry about it! Remember, you’re too cool for school. Good luck!” Tokachi-san waved as she ran off. 

Shimokizu managed to find her way to her starting place before the alarm sounded. She looked around. She’s just supposed to stay in this area, so… 

There was a fire escape on the building just across the street, but it was out of reach from her jump. 

Fortunately, the dumpsters were empty. Fake cities don’t have trash, after all. She climbed quickly, Yacchan and Unca always said being quick was the most important part of not getting hit in an urban environment, but she wasn’t fast like them. 

She wasn’t slow, exactly, more… unsteady. Just as she was pulling herself onto the roof, the bell rang, echoing through the space and in her ears as she stumbled a bit on the ledge. 

She got to her feet fast enough, listening as Tokachi-san wished everyone good luck! into her ear over the radio. From up here, she could see… almost everything. The way the zones were divided was genius, using light instead of physical markers so that the intersecting zones wouldn’t make it difficult for people to move around within their own areas. 

Her color of light was a deep blue, maybe an indigo, shining from the division of the fields. Noting her boundaries, she started to move along the rooftops, leaving the line behind her. The goal orb was in the middle, they’d said, and the middle was away from the edges. 

She wasn’t perfect at navigating the rooftops and it was hard to make the jumps, and ended up scrambling when she didn’t quite perfectly make it to the next building, but she knew where she was going to find the orb. 

She started to see the light in the middle when she noticed something else. 

It was probably meant to be a hotel, based on the size of it and the kanji in neon on the side, but that wasn’t what drew her eye. Right there, on the rooftop, was a water tower. She bit her lip, looking at the orb’s light, then at the water tower. 

She needed the advantage, she didn’t have speed backing her. 

It took a bit more scrambling and nearly falling, but she managed to get to the hotel’s roof. This was just the sort of risky behavior Unca said was a bad idea.The tower’s structure was solid; she couldn’t just kick it over, but if she concentrated her quirk, then the supports would become brittle, and easy to break. The weight change would make the remaining supports unable to stay steady, and it would bend… 

Which was perfect. She’d just have to be careful about her range, keep it focused. 

She couldn’t believe her luck when she heard something clanging, then loud, irritated cursing. 

“Kottoba-san!” she called, waited until she came into visible range, then activated her quirk. 

“What do you want, you frosty, shivering loser?”

It felt like the time she shut her desk drawer wrong and got her skin caught in it. Tugging, pinching… but it wasn’t an insult? Was it? 

“Um, th-thir-thirsty?” She kicked the brittle metal, hard, and again, and again, and it fractured, dumping its cold contents down. 

Kottoba-san cursed loudly at her, some of it pinching again, but she focused on getting down the fire escape as fast as possible. She stumbled a few times, falling uncontrolled past a few floors. Was finally close enough for her quirk’s range to reach Kottoba-san, there was still water spilling from the toppled water tower. Releasing the hold on her quirk, Shimo let the cold spread, making the air crackle and the soaked Kottoba-san freeze. She slowed down her descent after that. Then  she heard something hitting ice. 

“Your dumbass plan won’t get me that easy, Stutters!” Pinch, pinch. “I’m not gonna back down just cause you managed to figure out that water freezes!” Pinch, pinch… twinge? She fell the last few feet to the ground as her shoulder gave out on her. It hurt, but Kottoba-san kept going. 

“You really think you can stick it out here?” Another twinge… was her throat getting tight or was it just her exhaustion? “You think you can win without taking this seriously, running around freezing things? Take this seriously, damn you!” 

No, it was definitely getting harder and harder to breathe, like her throat was closing. But it was true, wasn’t it? What she was saying… Why did the truth hurt like this? 

“You should’ve just stayed home!” 

Her breath caught in her chest, refusing to come out. She pulled away the earpiece that allowed her to hear her classmates and twisted her fingers into her ears, trying to block out the sound of Kottoba-san’s voice. Somehow, it made breathing easier, even though it was just supposed to make the pinching feeling go away. She ran, heaving breaths desperately until she couldn’t hear Kottoba-san’s shouts anymore. 

The orb glowed, she found as she picked it up, just like the rest of the light of their area. She held it tight to her chest and started to head towards the light, but… 

Cities were such a maze. 

“Ha-have I… I b-be-been…?” she mumbled to herself. She sighed, then tucked the orb into her sweater, and folded the bottom hem into her pants to make a sort of pocket. 

Seems that going back up high was her best bet. Shimokizu was just getting lost down here. 

The motions of getting herself onto the fire escape were familiar, empty dumpsters and jumping, climbing the ladders… 

She was more careful about getting onto the roof, more aware that she was carrying something that might break. 

Back was the knocked over water tower, so forward… 

She set off, jumping between buildings. After almost crushing the orb, she moved it so it was instead against her back. It only took her a few buildings before she found a straight shot to the ‘goal’. 

It felt like cheating. It shouldn’t be this easy, right? She should tell Aurora-sensei she cheated. As she slid down to the ground, she tried to figure out what she would say. It wasn’t fair to Kottoba-san, that she got unlucky enough to wind up under Shimokizu’s perfect trap, that she broke public property to win. It wasn’t heroic, to break things. She should respect people’s property. 

In hindsight, she was incredibly grateful for the fact that she’d thought to switch the orb back to her front when she flopped down the last few feets from the fire escape, landing hard on her butt. “Ow, owow…” Pushing herself up, she pulled the orb out of her sweater and held it close to herself. She jogged towards her finish line, so she could tell Aurora-sensei faster that she’d cheated. That she should give Kottoba-san the win, because she’d cheated. 

The orb dulled when she crossed the line, losing its light. Around her, the light barrier went down as well. She kept hold of the orb, though, and started to make her way out of the area. 

A screech sounded in her earpiece, and she realized that she’d forgotten to put it back in when she’d gotten out of Kottoba-san’s range. Gently, she tucked it back in, and was instantly hit with chatter. 

Before Shimokizu could find her way out, though, the final bell rang, announcing that everyone had finished, before she could tell Aurora-sensei that she’d cheated and should be disqualified. The city was unfamiliar, and she was sure she ended up going in circles a couple of times. 

“Good job, everyone! Go ahead and change back into your uniforms and relax! You all did great today!” Aurora-sensei clapped her hands together, grinning. 

Wolfsboon-sensei said nothing. Something about his expression, though… Shimokizu was glad she wasn’t in 1-B in that moment. 

“Aurora-sensei?” Shimokizu shuffled her feet, looking down at them. 

“Yeah kiddo?” 

“Um… I ch-cheated… Kottoba-san s-sho-should h-have w-won…” 

“Hm? No you didn’t. We would’ve known immediately if you cheated. You stayed within your area, and you used your resources to win the competition.” 

“Bu-but… Kottoba-san d-de-deser-erved a b-bett-tter ch-chance…” 

“You did well, kiddo. You didn’t cheat, okay?” Aurora-sensei patted her head, ruffling her hair a little bit. “It’s fine, okay? Trust me.” 

“O-okay…” 

Shimokizu shuffled through the rest of her day quietly, looking for a place where she could apologize to Kottoba-san. 

It didn’t come until after classes, as Kottoba-san was about to roll off on her skateboard. 

“U-um, Kottoba-san?”

“Yeah?” She stepped on the board, and it bounced skillfully into her hand. 

“I’m… s-sorry.”

“For what? You haven’t done anything.” 

“I… ch-cheated…” 

“How do ya figure?” 

“I… y-you… you deser-erved a b-better ch-chance. A-are y-you o-okay?” 

“Look. I’m fine. We all did our best, yeah? You beat me, don’t fucking apologize for it.” 

She paused. “C-can I a-ask y-you… wh-why d-did it h-hurt?”

“What? My quirk? Cause that’s how it works, stupid.” 

Pinch. “N-no, th-the tr-ruth! L-like th-then!” 

“Shit. Look, sorry about that, I shouldn’t have called you stupid, you’re just…” She took a breath, then sighed. “You irritate me.” 

She nodded. “So-sorry…” 

“That’s exactly what irritates me! You just… take it! You don’t stand up for yourself! Fuck, I call you stupid and you’re just okay with it?” Pinch. “I call you a frosty, shivering weirdo and you just nod along like it's nothing! And don’t think I haven’t heard you saying that shit about how you’re… whatever!” Pinch, twinge… “Stand up for yourself, would you?”

“I d-don’t… wh-what d-do yo-you mean? I a-am s-stu-stupid, a-and… a-and a-all th-those th-things!” 

“No, you’re not! You made it into this school for fuck’s sake, that’s not meaningless! This is exactly why you irritate me. They’re insults, not the fucking truth. I’m done. Talk to someone who actually cares.” 

And somehow, that one hurt more than any of the pinches and twinges she’d had all day.

“It’s not cheating,” Sasuke murmured, unsure himself if he was making a statement or asking a question...

[ xx | @kyuuzuchiha | verse; university | tw; nsfw-ish ]

Here they go again. The two otherwise exceptional students recently collided at this ridiculous 'Ugly Sweater' holiday party -- neither of them had wanted to be there in the first place, but were otherwise dragged along by the taut of their leash ( commonly known as a boyfriend/girlfriend ). Naturally, the two had found one another: molten stares of reciprocated yet forbidden desires caught with a bolt of electricity from either side of the same room.  Not even fifteen minutes later, Kimi lures him away from where he had previously been tethered with a simple game of cat and mouse. She weaved through the crowd of hideous knits and crinkling red plastic cups, only throwing back a knowing glance to ensure that he was indeed still leisurely chasing her tail. He was eager to have her alone, but took just enough care to be inconspicuous and come across as nonchalant. Now locked away in a guest bedroom, the secret lovers with hands in the hundreds were indulging in their shared sin. It begun as a snarky remark regarding his choice in attire, and promptly escalated with the feverish stripping of said itchy material on both their parts. Just how long had they been stealing away with their no-strings-attached affair.. Kimiko stopped keeping track after the second month of consecutive trysts. Either way, the Tamashi knew Sasuke’s preferences enough to dress (in)appropriately to his liking — including some sheer tights beneath her horror-themed Krampus sweater-dress. For which he was clearly frustrated by, or with.. whatever the case, the boy was eager to rip them off and earn his prize by whatever means necessary. Apparently that also included some force, an agitated growl, and an uttered string of expletives. And she couldn’t help herself but to laugh, using her own force to snatch his feverish hands away and give his chest a playful yet firm shove. He drops onto the edge of the mattress, and Kimiko is promptly on top of him, sans tights and straddling his lap. “Don’t you think returning with ripped tights might give us away?” She chides him with a honeyed croon, fingers sliding into his hair before his ravenous attentions attach themselves to her throat. He wasn’t usually this brazen — she can’t very well sport a few blooms of possession when returning to her boyfriend’s side, no matter how utterly aloof and trusting the poor guy might be. With a shudder and a heated sigh, Kimiko melts into his front but has the mind to at least say something in half-hearted rebuttal. “..Are you really trying to get us caught?” Though it would seem she had struck a chord with the otherwise impatient Uchiha, for he mutters such a shockingly awful lie against the hollow of her throat. ‘ It’s not cheating. ’ She couldn’t help but scoff. Pulling back just enough to hit him with her infamous ‘Are you kidding me?’ countenance ( as told by the upwards flick of one eyebrow and incredulous curl of upper lip ), she plainly retorts: “Don’t try to sell me on that crock of shit.” Arching the small of her back, nimble fingers slip through her hair and collect it at the top of her head if only to show off the tattoos of greed he’d recently left in his wake. Easy enough to camouflage with thick locks of ebony, but still very much present and incriminating. She releases the hair and it cascades down as she looms over him, hands instead finding his shoulders with a firm grip. “It is cheating, — and frankly, who gives a shit?” Her voice drops with the weight of her pooling need, breathy and seductive despite feeling feisty.  Kimiko wasn’t about to admit to anything, but she wasn’t the type to easily let go of something she wanted. Sasuke was in her clutches now, as notated by the threatening prick of her nails upon his skin — she can leave marks of territory, too — and she wanted him like never before. Did she feel threatened? Hardly. It was obvious to everyone around campus that the moody Uchiha was simply not interested nor invested in his current relationship. The girl in question was apparently too blinded by her own infatuation to come to terms. On Kimiko’s end, her ‘boyfriend’ was admittedly dense and painfully banal. By all of the textbook standards, the guy presented as a ‘perfect’ partner. Flowers outside her dorm room, frilly Goodmorning and Goodnight texts day in and day out, and an incomprehensible level of trust as she plainly lied to his face without batting an eye. In truth, it was all those reasons and more that chased Kimiko off into the arms of another. Why she got involved with the golden retriever incarnate in the first place.. Well, she had her gaggle of well-intentioned ‘friends’ to blame for that. Supposedly, he was a good influence. Truly, he was just too simple; unmarred by the evils of the world for which the orphaned Tamashi already knew too well. It made him impossibly difficult to relate to, and infuriatingly aloof to all that Kimiko struggled with. While the spitfire girl was no stranger to rejecting shallow adorations, her current ‘boyfriend’ had fallen right into her lap. It began as a begrudging agreement to see a movie, and then he kept persistently showing up: looking like a kicked puppy before she even had the chance to give him the boot. Then, all of a sudden -- he just started calling her his girlfriend. She supposes that at the start, there was an inkling of unplaced hope that maybe the guy would be a good influence on her, after all. All in all.. he’d proven himself to be mind-numbingly boring. Sure, she could dump him at the drop of a hat; but now that she’d found herself in such a delectably furtive arrangement with none other than Uchiha Sasuke.. Well, Kimiko would be damned if she broke it off with Mr. Goody-Goody for it only to come across as though she yearned for something more with her secret flame. She couldn’t fathom how insulted she’d be if Sasuke interpreted it the wrong way. Besides, these clandestine meetings and the fact that they were ‘taboo’ only served to rile her up all the more. But in truth.. she was certainly becoming sick of her ‘boyfriend. He was soft and fragile from the inside out — and Kimiko preferred someone with an edge sharp enough to make things exciting. There had never been a spark, no flame in which to ignite.. As opposed to the instantaneous inferno that consumed both Sasuke and Kimiko with an insatiable desire for one another.

Speaking of, she had an ever-growing heat to tend to, spurning itself on in her lower core. So with another playful shove on her part, Sasuke finds his back pressed into the mattress. “Come on, you grouch.” A hand promptly comes down onto the sheets that they’d soon muss up, a mere two inches away from the side of his head. Hovering over him now, her ebony hair curtains around his face; leaving only a wicked vixen’s grin and melted honey-pot eyes for which to transfix himself to. Icy fingers begin to trail down his bare front with a feather’s touch, closing in on the trophy. “Don’t tell me that after all our shared benefits, you’re starting to reconsider..” She hums the tease over the sound of metal clinking as quick and practiced work is made of his belt buckle — promising his release soon enough. He hisses with unrestrained pleasure as frigid digits find their way to the bullseye of his desire, the crown of his head pressing down into the bed. His covetous hands are roaming over her bare skin, and she has no intention of stopping them. Her smirk widens with unabashed confidence. Sasuke made her feel powerful in a way she had never experienced before; it goaded her to push him closer to the edge of his dwindling control. It’s not like it would take much more to convince him to stick around for a good time, anyhow. With the sensitive skin of his throat bared, Kimiko ducks down and begins to indulge. Wet and ravenous kisses are painted over the sweet spots she’s already familiarized with, sharps of her canines grazing in order to illicit a visible shudder from the man beneath her. Kiss-bruised lips press against his ear before her promise is whispered hot and needy. “We both know that I’m the only one who knows just how you like it.” It seals the deal: at least for the rest of the night. Soon thereafter, Sasuke flips the script and Kimiko finds herself flat on her back with a breathless gasp. The illicit and casual couple did not dare separate from one another until they both had their fill. The numerous-notification buzz of their cellphones, every knock on that locked door.. it all was blissfully ignored in favor for an unforgettable night feverishly entangled in one another’s arms.

Bonus Round 3: UA Adventures

Vai had never been great in social situations. They knew where it came from; knew why they flinched when their classmates traded well-meaning jibes, knew why the sight of people whispering made their skin crawl and the hairs on the back of their neck stand at attention.

That didn’t make it any easier.

And how sad it is to know that they had felt calmer standing ten feet from actual fucking villains, burns dripping down their right side and barely able to stand, than they do now, surrounded by their peers as they make popcorn and collect blankets for a sleepover of all things. Their heart races as Hotaru approaches, a small, tired-looking smile drawn across her face.

“Hey, Bondage-san,” she says. “do you want to help us with the pillow fort?”

Vai blinks.

“Uh, sure. What can I do?”

“Well, we should have enough pillows if you want to start stacking them while I grab a couple chairs.”

“Yeah, that sounds, uh- sounds good.”

Giving the taller girl a weak smile, Vai begins laying out blankets where they assume the movie is going to be played as Hotaru makes leaves to procure more chairs. Soon enough, the walls are starting to take shape as other students notice and join in. It’s nice, and Vai feels themself calming with each pillow stacked and every blanket hung. By the time Hotaru returns, the students have used up almost half their not insignificant pillow reserves. She grins.

“Wow, that’s looking good!”

“The left wall looks a little unstable, though,” Ozen says, following close behind her. Both carry a set of folding chairs, Ozen in either arm, and have since changed into their UA-issued PJs.

Popi must have been busy, if the mess of braids pulled through Ozen’s turquoise locks are any indication. Loose strands still fall around her scowling face, messy and soft in a way Ozen herself never was.

FWOOM

Feathers rain down over the fort, a twisted pillow carcass squeezed between Vai’s hands the clear culprit.

Shit.

“Um, I’ll get a um- I’ll go get… Broom. Yes.”

Vai gets to their feet, ducking their head to hide the bright red flush of their cheeks as they sprint from the dorm and the pitying eyes of their classmates.

–––

Tucked between the roots of an old tree at the edge of the campus, Vai pulls out their phone. In the dark, curled around the meager light of the small screen, they feel like something fragile.

Like shards of glass and fraying wires, a stupid child with an impossible dream.

Their finger hovers over the call button. It would be so easy to just press it, to ask for comfort and safety and–

“Hey, Kid.”

Vai startles, looking up to see a tall man in dark clothing squatting in front of the tree. Most of his face is hidden behind a long, heavy-looking scarf and matte black mask but Vai would recognize those tired eyes and gravity defying hair anywhere.

“MasterMind*,” they breathe, equal parts awe and horror. “You’re my idol…”

The hero simply raises a brow and says, “Well, that’s a new one. Have we met?”

Vai pales. “Well, n-no, I just- I did a report on the new Anti-Quirk Discrimination law in elementary school and I saw how hard you worked to help get it passed and then I noticed your scarf and I realized you probably learned from Eraserhead before he took over and I checked and he only had one student who matched your description and then I watched your fights from the Sports Festivals and you were really cool so I’ve sort of been following your career since then but I swear I’m not a stalker, I–”

The sound of MasterMind honest to god laughing startles them out of their ramblings. “Oh my god, you’re a Mini-Midoriya. Wow, never thought I’d have fans…”

“I’m sorry, I just–”

“Don’t be. It makes me kinda happy, actually,” and even though they can’t see it, Vai thinks the man might actually be smiling beneath that mask. They made MasterMind, their absolute favorite hero and role model since the fourth grade smile! “So what are you doing out here? I thought all the Taiyuu kids were doing a sleepover?”

All at once, the nervous energy burns away and Vai is left staring down at their phone, three black letters staring back. Their skin burns cold as they suddenly remember what drove them out here in the first place. It must be obvious, too, because MasterMind slowly puts his hand over the phone, guiding it down until the screen goes black. He sits, arranging himself into the roots beside Vai and gazing through the overhanging foliage to the stars above.

“You know, when I went to school here, I used to eat lunch under this tree everyday. It’s so far from the cafeteria, I never had to worry about anyone seeing me or trying to talk to me. I’d been the outcast for so long, it honestly didn’t occur to me that I didn’t have to be. Then I got transferred to the Hero Course and started making friends…

“It was terrifying. I thought the tiniest slip up and I’d be back at square one. Everyone would see that I didn’t belong there and I’d go back to being that weak, angry kid that everyone avoided.”

Vai glances up, seeing the sad, distant quality the heroes’ eyes have taken on, and tugs at the edge of their borrowed track jacket.

“How did you get through it?”

He shrugs.

“I became a hero. I realized I was feeling powerless because I wasn’t giving myself any power. So when I messed up, I tried again. When I felt scared and useless, I helped someone else. It reminded me that I could change things, even if I couldn’t control them.”

Vai nods softly, carving the words into their heart as if the whole encounter would fade away if they didn’t. The silence stretched on, but tucked between the roots of an old tree at the edge of the campus, they no longer felt quite so alone.

–––

Returning to the dorms, Vai finds most of their peers sitting in the completed pillow fort as a comedy they’ve never seen plays on the TV. Hotaru appears to have fallen asleep at some point, slumped across a 1B student’s lap with a bit of steaming drool dribbling down her chin. There are several vaguely-humanoid lumps as well, one with a bit of purple hair visible from above and another with two colorful socks sticking out the bottom**. What catches their eye, however, is the sight of a quiet bunny-eared girl staring blankly at the wall below the TV.

Vai takes a deep breath, steeling themself, and quietly crawls over to Ameko.

“Um, Ameko-chan, would you, uh, maybe want to, um, help me? In the kitchen, I mean. I thought, we could make dinner for everyone? Maybe that honey chicken dish you mentioned?”

Ameko perks up instantly and as they head into the kitchen together, Vai can’t help but grin.

This is what they’d been looking for all along.

BONUS:

*The Next Day*

Vai crawls across the roots of the old tree, uniform stained with grass and hands raw and muddy.

“Where the fuck did I leave my phone??”

BONUS BONUS BONUS:

“So, what’s your quirk?”

Vai looks around for something to demonstrate on, before just taking off their shoe and focusing. Soon enough, a small rubber cat is rubbing at MasterMind’s leg, begging for attention. He stares down at it, not moving for several seconds.

“It’s stupid- I mean, I can make bigger things, I just–“

“I love him.”

“W-what?”

MasterMind stands, taking the rubber cat with him.

“I’ve only had him for half a minute, but if anything happened to him, I would kill everyone in this city and then myself.”

He begins walking away, Vai awkwardly calling after, “B-but, my shoe!”

* MasterMind is a better name than MindJack and you can’t change my mind.
