Before the U.A Attack[Tatsumaki Omake]
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyYpVmxodeJ
Tatsumaki: “Annoying.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQ6N4gGbzB
With a simple finger, the quirk beast that was wreaking havoc in the street was torn apart by a small tornado.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbQmGp1N4g
“Wow, that must be a new record. Not even property damage this time. Good job.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNG0dwwWtqQ
Tatsumaki: “Shut it, Arashi.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHweQ1CwiYw
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN88SLLWl5m
He was a pretty simple, if not a bit handsome, looking young man with black hair and a loose business suit.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡysFC3P9GaW
Tatsumaki: “Anyway, this was much easier than I expected. You said this was some dangerous beast. Couldn’t some other hero handle it?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXTSWPaMvl
Arashi: “There were none nearby. I saw the beast. I gave you a call. You know how it is.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLWXK5dWJx
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCcKPSz8qR
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYmxuplzBN
Tatsumaki: “You do that.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMNHkQqRVi
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWKd0lp0M9
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSVBWpgCYl
Arashi: “Tatsumaki? Oh, you miss me already?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifBDPYw7pR
Tatsumaki: “Shut it, Arashi. Anyway, how’s the situation? Do you need me for something?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ41uqaG4FFB
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZtiAwe6eR
Tatsumaki: “Hm… is that so?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfHL92FvQTP
Arashi: “Sooooo, what are you wearing?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE4qbeFrkrb
She hung up and fought down the slight blush.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgNiBvQDds9
Tatsumaki: “He is so lucky he’s cu- I mean useful.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxeBlWRdj7
She sighs and lies back on the floor. Her fight against boredom continues, and for once, she doesn’t think she’ll win.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQT58koLiAc
Tatsumaki: “I could visit Arashi, but… that will get complicated fast. I’m not in the mood for that.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3UuUvhONv
Tatsumaki: “Fubuki is busy with her agency, tch, like always. Izuku and Kiri are at school. I guess I can visit Mom.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDSLTijJfp
She prepares to get dressed and meet her but instead stops. A smile grows on her face.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVN8n0PnxR
Tatsumaki: “This might be a good excuse to test that out.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHXNoqJOL1R
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmPEDqHBEf
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?
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTEyjwM4ra
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaphgWCQrL6
Either by bending space, breaking her down, and moving her elsewhere, or something else, whatever was easier.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9CESbFc2j
After a moment of actual effort, she felt something happen and smiled. In the next instant, she was in the kitchen.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtinRNDxguj
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnTSf4y6Mt
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSI4MqrRG6
Tatsumaki: “…Yes.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPYPqbyEfW
Inko: “Sweetie, did I see what I think I just saw?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2kiZdxPFP
Tatsumaki: “… Would you believe me if I said no?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30JcXnHsro
Inko didn’t say anything, but managed to say everything.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmULOoutM5n
Tatsumaki: “Don’t tell Fubu or Izu.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjW8BiQB0r1
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DJXsyQCRN
Tatsumaki: “T-Thanks, mom, I’ll do that.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrAgzmwUTJ
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwL2JmXDqq
Tatsumaki: “Teleportation is overrated anyway.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3CameEiaX

After the U.A Attack
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSe8sBfsA1
“So far we have three villains that were leading this attack.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3sp4vAr6jv
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrFu4DEZBvD
She was ready to get out and find these villains as quickly as possible.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7V1JeA2eFD
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtzsUKLthgR
All Might: “A group of villains with someone like that can be very dangerous.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8kJyjYc8cK
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7IXcd8Q5r
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBY4Q1itmzQ
Midnight: “Can’t believe I’m saying this about a handsome man, but I hope I never meet him again.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMR7oxGCKJ
Naomasa: “What’s worse is that we have no info on him. Azrael is clearly an alias.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrQaR0s8sk
Nezu: “The angel of death… ”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6HR5kyKEtu
Snipe: “You can say that again. Looking at him was like staring down the barrel of a rifle.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LzimEeRWl
Naomasa: “Based on that, I’d imagine the only ones that should face him are the top 3 pros.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5nASjnjVh
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, I’ll take care of them all by myself. I just need a location.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhw8z6FYqTP
Naomasa: “Sad to say, with a warping quirk user on their side, they could be anywhere.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBF1Et29v9F
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6PqJjJoLx
Midnight: “Oh yeah, what about him? What do we know?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEMTSqPm6mT
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcKoEBuPMP
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… ”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo6KgzaA7d8
Midnight: “What’s his quirk?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhuRx5QvRH5
Naomasa: “Unknown, Ms. Fubuki insists he used only technology in their fight.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMs92UdHA2X
Tatsumaki: “Then he shouldn’t be a problem when I find him. I can easily rip the gear off of him.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40S277AUh4
Naomasa: “If you find him. And who knows how you’ll fare against his Psychic Disruptor.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxvVr29zQ4c
Snipe: “Something he made with you and your family in mind. I wonder why he seems so focused on you.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1fTFYFOPi
Tatsumaki: “Simple, he’s scared of me. Hmph, I don’t blame him. His little plan wouldn’t have worked if I was there.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5J1hkB8IJ4
Naomasa: “Which makes his plans all the more dangerous. He can work around powerful obstacles and come up with countermeasures.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZTvbVSWHt
Vlad: “The longer he’s out there, the harder it will be to deal with him and this league of villains.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSRc3cqIxM
Nezu: “That’s not the most disturbing thing about him, is it, Tsukauchi?
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPKjSYOoMn3
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtW3PLAOSiR
The room grew quiet at that revelation. A villain that smart yet barely a teenager.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSL8KGtQWyP
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTojWGeZe0Q
Midnight: “Why?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfDbhcMVk7
Nezu: “Because it means the elevation of a person to divine status, essentially becoming a god.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4pOl8u8Gg
Naomasa: “So this kid is incredibly arrogant and egotistical to give himself such a title.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROLck9yRsF
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEbTOkrtYI
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wQNsiTzVt
Tatsumaki: “You worry too much.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlLdY7tVWl
Nezu: “Perhaps.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgmVF3kn9Z
All Might: “What about the last one, the one young Midoriya fought?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrAqf7yDen
Naomasa: “Well… as you all know… there wasn’t anything left of him. Ms. Fubuki and Midoriya made sure of it.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1VbUxHA5s
Vlad: “But what I want to know is how? Based on what Aizawa said, this creature had strength comparable to All Might’s.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22dBNksUPQ
All Might: “Yeah, and taking a punch from young Tae is no easy feat.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJWr9qFCxX
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DCsjgIEtK
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡohwDpuNRfI
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxQtYO4gmW
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVLZ2iVwo9
Vlad: “Hmmm, I don’t like it. What are they hiding?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6syDr6ah8I
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigRccZ4b0X
Naomasa: “I agree, it’s worrying, but nothing we should concern ourselves over.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6NYz8DyyPl
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?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeOa84nKVUi
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOV37PmLWTk
Midnight: “But aren’t you curious about what your brother is hiding and why?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCa0RohrSoD
Tatsumaki: “No, I trust my brother. Now, I would suggest you stop asking these questions, Midnight.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDQ1kxl9Ht
The two ladies glared at each other for a moment before All Might coughs to snap them out of it.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLl5jaCqoRQ
All Might: “We should get back on track.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJwUOOEua8
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, you do that. I got what I needed.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoHYCfljpcY
Tatsumaki opened the window next to her and flew out in search of her prey.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DGDkkxY8y
Midnight: “Ugh, tell me why we put up with her again.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDPAHPAdEO
Snipe: “Ha, you’re just jealous Tatsumaki and her sister beat you in the most attractive female heroes ranking.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7LDobubfG
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2NjiJ6US7m
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3hzS4bbVF
All Might: ‘If only I was at my prime…’
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafsiWQ2v8s
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDBmsIVCC4
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6BU6ecxFLK
She understands that they would be shaken by the attack, but there’s something else wrong.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTcJCWfMdzU
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEY74iPEwT
No, what’s wrong is when she suddenly stops and looks colder than usual. But that doesn’t compare to Izuku.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYZV2JTynM
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmSg29xAxr
Tatsumaki won’t pick up her calls, and Fubuki is always busy. Enough is enough.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLSffqxWfjL
It’s time for a family get-together.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAn07y2ovkC
While eating at the table in uncomfortable silence, Inko makes her move.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8MRKO0BjQH
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAPcDP3zx8N
Izuku: “… I don’t know. I’m not in the mood.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0drKck7bhE
Kiri: “…Nh.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcVWZYc5A5
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLcWnaNZ5Z
Izuku: “… I don’t think that’s possible.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ53Xdyw40tg
Inko: “Sweetie, please. I’m worried, and I… want to help. Just a few hours with your sisters.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNO80SevbaC
Izuku looks at Kiri, who looks back. She smiles, trying to bring some warmth back into his life.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDNr2dDnvLR
Kiri: “I would… like it. Can we?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7R8eUNABSA
Inko: “See? Kiri is willing to try it.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJb7SQvl8zq
Izuku: “…Okay.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjUYaY1nZMp
Inko: “Great! Now I just have to get Fubuki and Tatsumaki.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb49lRFHZYV
Inko grabs her phone and dials Fubuki first. Hopefully, she has the time.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDGrDLmMrnq
Fubuki: “Yes, Mom?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCJDxZMVmG2
Inko: “We’re getting the family together for a nice relaxing day, just to have fun. What do you say?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZVmCdNaNr
Fubuki: “I would love to, but-”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDZLs8Oens
Inko: “Fubuki, please. I feel like… I’m losing you all. Izuku barely talks, and even Kiri can’t get to him.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBALJl5qd9
Fubuki: “He what? What’s wrong with Izuku?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTBmJ9ooCtq
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡea7vKuibDp
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4yAlcV1is
Inko: “Yes!”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fh1RCRlME
Fubuki: “But how will you get Tatsu to come? She’s been… distant recently.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Ve7fCZucd
Inko: “It might be underhanded, but it’s for her own good.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPzPjd8iqQw
30 minutes later
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxMB7vc0bzi
Tatsumaki bursts through the front door, ready to tear apart whoever dared to attack her home.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtCU3j7Jjl
Tatsumaki: “Izuku! Mom! Where-”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpW2wayvQM
Instead of a crisis, she sees a normal living room with her whole family present.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBnnUNlpoH
Tatsumaki: “… What the fu-”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSSN2iQ7Rg
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHa7lgk7p4O
Tatsumaki closed her eyes and pinched her nose. Her heart was about to break out of her chest, and it was for nothing!?
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGURUBgSuaL
Tatsumaki: “…Why… why would you do that to me?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFL630s1YHt
Inko walked to Tatsumaki and hugged her softly.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoaBpRCIGKL
Inko: “Because I’m worried, and we left off on a terrible note. I don’t want to lose you.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKc6zxSYmBg
Tatsumaki: “Mom, you won’t lose me. But nearly giving me a heart attack just to say that, really?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DpKVIwD92
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRHPcV1FfKC
Tatsumaki: “… Villains don’t take breaks.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsX0DiTcHc9
Inko: “But heroes should. If they don’t, they might lose to those villains.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSWxixJ3lU
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, I could be on my deathbed and still beat them.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKOCAn5wNf
Inko: “Maybe, but I want my baby at 100%. That way she can better defend those precious to her, right?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TLFQMamsZ
The eldest daughter took a moment to think about it, glancing at her siblings before sighing in resignation.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOMqmI0YelB
Tatsumaki: “…Just a few hours and that’s it.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn958oRYoJl
Inko: “Yes!”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEN8Mw6kLCP
The first part is over; now she needs to find something for everyone to do.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtzoMkbSHw
She leads Tatsumaki further into the home, completing the family gathering. But that’s when Fubuki noticed something off about Tatsumaki’s eyes.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8j4zU3lVD
Fubuki: “Sister… are you wearing… eyeliner?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3PMA7S676I
Tatsumaki: “W-What? No!”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbgnfOxal3
Inko: “Ohhh, has my baby finally decided to take her makeup seriously? Let me guess, it’s a boy, right?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmznVMS5ao
Tatsumaki: “No! We’re not like that!”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8r0rne1Zp7
Silence.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB55yTKwKGB
Stunned silence and widened eyes are what you would see in this household. Even Izuku was taken aback.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEBGvCc5ABw
We?
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTr3ymCYhI
We imply two people.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3lXYEYG1R
Two people in this context mean a couple.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZ2bnY6QIw
Tatsumaki being straight means it’s a guy. A he?
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrh3VU73DAE
He?
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6JkykOLsH
HE!?
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlocW0U1Txg
Inko’s smile brightens like the sun while Fubuki leans her head against a wall.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrq2ZanKRL
Tatsumaki: “Mom, wait-”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYizBMwDh6H
Inko: “My baby girl has finally become a woman!”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMEF4VvfJt
Tears stream down the mother’s face. She never said anything, but she was worried her daughter would never find a guy.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpocA3MwAxK
Izuku: “No way.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiOZq6gxSuP
Fubuki: “I can’t believe it, big sis got a boyfriend before me. How could this happen?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEopGx6lTx
Kiri: “New nephew or niece?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Y0nwB2BWQ
Tatsumaki’s face was beyond red at this point. She covered her face in shame.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgExyLbXmP3
Tatsumaki: “Come on, stoooop. We’re just… coworkers.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCPh6YOkD2
Inko: “Does this ‘coworker’ have a name?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPV6J9LSdaE
Tatsumaki: “…I’m not telling.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa72Ip9DLt6
Inko: “Ohhhh, you can be so cute sometimes, Tatsu.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59nMtyIsBs
Izuku: “So is it true? You really have a boyfriend?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE2M2TMcMq4
Tatsumaki: “No! The only reason I’m wearing makeup is to… cover up the bags.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwryasjaLN
The once joyful atmosphere sobered as the family looked at Tatsumaki.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUL3XS8k24C
Fubuki: “Sister, how long has it been since you’ve slept?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7byHxMdKh
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, I sleep enough.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygVE8lcUyZ
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdcxhg875Sv
Tatsumaki: “Izu, Y-You can’t sleep?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtm36uwW1BA
Izuku: “It’s been… a bit difficult.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UrjirO4hN
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcFd7O57ce
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKapGLCZv6
Tatsumaki: “Okay, let’s do this then. If you really think it will help.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckEuOf8YDL
Inko: “Great!”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiRyqOeb5n
Izuku: “But what are we doing?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnyax9hgCWT
Inko: “Haha, would you believe me if I said I didn’t plan that far ahead.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4aCWFR7tlX
Fubuki: “Mom…”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7ouuHOoXX
Inko: “Oops. But don’t worry! By the time you all dress yourselves in something casual, I will have come up with something.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsc3K5xKCDe
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcfvH2l9D7
Izuku had simple gray pants and a white shirt with an open blue hoodie over it.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmZeZ3HyOeM
Kiri wore a long-sleeve yellow shirt that was a size too big but emphasized her cuteness.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBx1IH38XCk
Fubuki had a red dress shirt and a long gray skirt. Together with sunglasses, it made her look truly stylish.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAyvXzE2Mj
Tatsumaki wore a black shirt with a biker jacket over it and a dark frilly skirt.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEjtWnT3eZ
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIA79I1E7RG
Inko: “You all look great. Okay, my plan is that we go to the amusement park.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdpWCMyzOKl
Fubuki: “Sounds good, we can take my car.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVHbmpwm8Z
Tatsumaki: “Why drive when we can fly?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkP7BuJWD9P
Fubuki: “Because not all of us can fly, and it’s pretty far.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wpfXtJjEn
Tatsumaki: “You carry Mom, I carry Kiri. Think of it like training.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡupxmqz73JP
Fubuki: “Training? They’re not that heavy.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nmnBqlED3
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuOy5fxdoLe
Fubuki: “We also got in trouble for using our quirk.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAn5SoiVXT5
Tatsumaki: “We’re heroes now; they won’t say anything. Now come on.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15hmGCmCoQ
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiF2DH83i85
Fubuki: “Izu?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs13rCCyow0
Tatsumaki: “What’s wrong?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZDTSvZ2YG
Izuku was outside looking up at them, seemingly hesitating to use his quirk. Not wanting to worry them though, he shakes his head.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJtio3DxRJ
Izuku: “N-Nothing.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsEPal5XvQ
He slowly lifts himself and joins them in the sky.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdrUwtQ6xj
Tatsumaki: “Great, now try to keep up.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC111e3Cu1w
Fubuki: “No, we’re not blasting off.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4RB6CVF13
Inko: “I would prefer a more leisurely flight. I love looking at the world below pass by.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOEuVu4YVG
Izuku: “Agreed.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtc4fwMs2Yt
Kiri: “Nh.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡosB5lV4uJW
Tatsumaki: “Darn, outvoted. Fine, we can go grandma speed.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1448WkNVi9
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqUReomSwI2
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPyeYcXN2G
Kiri: “Colorful.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDQVpVFXADO
Inko: “Yep, I’m glad it’s giving you a good first impression, Kiri. So gang, what’s first?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtL9kFpncf
“Bumper Cars!” “Roller Coaster.” “Food!” “Ferris Wheel!”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YaLRAdJv3
It seemed like everyone had different desires.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVQwS8S8igD
Tatsumaki: “A Ferris wheel? Fubuki, come on! That’s boring.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4EfPCTeG8
Fubuki: “Aren’t we too old for bumper cars?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmPYwWTb5C
Tatsumaki: “Scared of losing? I understand.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAnKgJAEr0
Fubuki: “Ha, from what I remember, I always beat you at those.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmUNDW9aKt
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6eqDEAgAg
Tatsumaki: “Things will be different this time.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPV2EApS1IB
Inko: “Okay, you all want to do something different. How about we play for it? Jan-ken-pon!”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWHAc4TDy6g
Tatsumaki: “And you said I was the one being too much of a kid.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXMrDKuaZy
Izuku: “Does sound fair, though.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqfDKaIk3C
Kiri: “Nh.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr10V8Bl89Q
Fubuki: “Let’s do it.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1vyZccv1y
Inko: “Great! Now get ready.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZO6G28G6N
Everyone got into battling position.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCyMhx2AZs
Inko: “Jan!”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbabe1U1fQ
Izuku: “Ken.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNU7h4TC4c6
Tatsumaki: “Pon!”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDLvrchvTLm
The result? Fubuki won.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYBE7NkBqW
Tatsumaki: “Darn it!”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoerLueL76
Fubuki: “Ferris wheel it is.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWJwLtsDko
Inko: “We play again to decide in what order we’ll go in.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmr9Y0EKnek
The group played again, and at the end, the schedule looked like this.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEbN39qlmT
Ferris Wheel, Bumper Cars, Food, Shooting Range(Inko’s choice), and Roller Coaster.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwL3yR5LHkG
Plan set, the family entered the amusement park and had some fun.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhgKESK9sF
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Jg6VVBER0
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYO6HhE58B
Fubuki: “So we’ll buy another round or two, right?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3VAROhEuP
“Yep.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGfwkO40bcj
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxFTIh1tBI
Next was the Bumper cars. The family was nothing but smiles throughout the whole game; it was good to return to simpler times.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL8yjPUpPTA
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHeQ6d7wfak
Inko: “Haha, don’t underestimate your mom, kids. I’ve been driving before you were all born.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jdh403zov
Fubuki: “You still need to beat me, the current champion of bumper cars.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pJCK2WmRk
Inko: “Former champion, you mean. Here I come!”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qmrVNhiah
It was a close match, but in the end, the mother won.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDne4mmLc86
Inko: “Hahahaha!”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXRRQC1bL8
Fubuki: “I have to admit, Mom, you’re a good driver.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXHXwPngk4
Kiri: “Nh.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzclUAuQmjx
Tatsumaki: “You should show those skills more often. You usually drive like a snail.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0enKvWGrOr
Izuku: “I don’t think me and Kiri could survive Mom doing some of those moves.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzkmU0Amyi
Kiri: “No, no.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqlgWZP1t9n
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGrbDwJmEE
Kiri: “Mmmmmm!”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlV7JKgCkUf
Cotton Candy.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdARRw3eiwF
Fubuki: “You two have a ridiculously big sweet tooth.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3a43CAI8AX
Tatsumaki: “And we have no shame. Right, Kiri?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhFkmRjyVBb
Kiri: “Nh. Love it.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnY0MmCrFd
Fubuki hasn’t completely accepted Kiri yet, but she can now admit she’s cute with a smile.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnvf7zuB2Oi
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdGJg74Js9
Inko got four massive cinnamon rolls.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNopzHidBXx
Inko: “What? It’s a free day today; I can splurge a bit.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYhYmKBjsL
Izuku got some sherbet ice cream.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhu5KCfQNjd
Fubuki, the most normal, got a strawberry smoothie.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5V0evU1eM
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzhEhVIi7x
Fubuki: “You moved the shot with your powers.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPD8WLOe5J
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QeQOeNhuO
Kiri: “Yes.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmBHBjgrUi
Tatsumaki and Kiri dashed back to the food stalls while Fubuki sighed.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfteQ6tXcT
Fubuki: “I swear they’ll bankrupt us at this point.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFk1d48dSn
Izuku: “At least they’re having fun.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZPnTAVpBs
Inko: “Yeah. But… what about you, sweetie? How do you feel?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2ChIhGti9
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXnzZK8Zh9
Izuku: “Y-Yes, I’m… glad I came. It’s fun hanging out with you all again.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfisKLHNtcr
Inko hugs her son.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlNqQKrsJb
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO73SIuIkRT
Izuku: “I… will. Thank you, Mom.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9o1xVAbEB
Inko: “Good. And the same applies to you, Fubuki.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fDg8F0jj9
Fubuki: “Huh? Me?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgY9sS2P5Aw
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlD3dnFObbW
Fubuki: “R-Really? I…. didn’t notice. I’ll try to make more time, mom, I promise.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBlhj9E0fhw
Inko: “That’s all I ask.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihNq9sFt6Y
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJB56qfhfxy
It was a great time; that is, until they got off the ride.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cmSXw94ex
Inko: “Ugh… maybe we should have eaten after the Roller Coaster.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7kFXeK0Rc
Izuku: “Are you okay?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBjGBmf9Kh
Inko: “I think… I need to go to the bathroom. Wait for me!”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VrOmpvFKq
Inko rushes to the bathroom while everyone else waits for her.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL3CCvP0x4V
Fubuki: “I should have stopped her when she went to eat more cinnamon rolls.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL6QvnOm5Hb
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3niGqLQ6o
Fubuki: “… You’re right.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdnhtQGYNju
Tatsumaki: “What the heck is this!?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYjK0tblBf
The two espers look to their older sister, who seems to have found a new attraction.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfEWP0fjoX
Izuku: “Kiri, can you wait for Mom?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsrZnPD8QPr
Kiri: “Nh.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZAfDOW9at
Izuku: “Thanks.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡckw7XSLvMK
The duo walked up to Tatsumaki, who was near what seemed to be a haunted house.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zaG9xlQ2S
Izuku: “That’s strange. Was this always here?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKl8t1QSjLn
Fubuki: “It is strange to have a haunted house in an amusement park.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrxKE0RGXDD
Izuku: “Some people find amusement in being scared.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwtCNS5U7bA
Tatsumaki: “Freaks, I say. Who wants to be scared?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtp2Ggo4RQ3
The trio looked at the building for a few moments before Fubuki broke the silence.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0u1Tqa86U5
Fubuki: “So Tatsu, thinking of going in?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEV9qiFaNZR
Tatsumaki: “W-What?! Of course not! I was just wondering why something like this was here.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqroThPV8S
Fubuki: “I don’t know, sounds like you WANT to go in, but you’re too scared to.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvyqLyURsv
Tatsumaki: “HUHHHH, NO WAY!”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPJznjNduL
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoIe2gEKii
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!”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmuixHYLUy
And there she goes, into the dark house of horrors. Izuku stares at Fubuki until she notices it.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ79GPIFDDT3
Fubuki: “What?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSzvXenRhg
Izuku: “…That was mean.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKQ64Bow1VH
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?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEizhiWauk9
Izuku: “And would you look at the time? I have to get back to Kiri.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqoec5bOb34
Fubuki giggles as Izuku walks back the way he came. But as he does, he sees a familiar face.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAPuFCSDQS
Izuku: “Tsuyu!”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjhmVHcWP8
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcASOVDlYY
Tsuyu made her way to Izuku, making sure her siblings were behind her.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1u72ZxXCN
Tsuyu: “H-Hello, Midoriya. H-Here with your family too?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡws21dMcth3
Izuku: “Yes. Are these your siblings?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrlC9FoNYC
Tsuyu: “Yes. Satsuki, Samidare, this is Izuku Midoriya. T-The one I was telling you about. Say hi.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfRKPhyinb
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaoDBUZCGBw
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-”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxEsM6TUlB
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ367hASupku
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvwpger7pB
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDcQdMiE6l
Izuku: “Y-Yeah, the villains… I-I-It’s fine. I-I was being too forward. I’ll… leave.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ssJKL0ucf
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyyfIFn7r8Z
As for Izuku, his heart races and breaks at the memory of what he did during the attack. The monster he became.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMN9S3jiR6B
Before he can become lost in the guilt and shame, he feels Kiri hug him.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsqBalY5X92
Kiri: “Onii…”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxH7NaFpLkU
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7pCNhg3ux
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQGl7K4yYmo
She lets him go and scratches her skin.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCqn1Mng2n5
Kiri: “I’m… sorry.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDGMyzYDH5
Izuku: “… I know.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSVSgaRX7z
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9flglugIEj
He laughed when Tatsumaki claimed there was a real ghost in the haunted house and for everyone to watch out.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrB91tu7gTu
He smiled when Fubuki didn’t believe it and teased Tatsu again.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QeI6d0Ynv
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbm0bftwvea
It was almost nighttime when they got home.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdIZgACK2ZP
Tatsumaki: “I have to admit, today was fun.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLiDj0CTrHf
Fubuki: “I’m glad you got us all together, Mom.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrVz5Gxc11x
Inko: “You’re welcome. Are you going to stay?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOchUP5oiMI
Fubuki: “Sure.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9X60n8ZJy9
Tatsumaki: “I don’t think I can make it home anyway.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IAwbbc7ia
Inko: “Great! Kiri, you can sleep with me so Fubuki can have her room back.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfkckXgkop
Kiri: “…Nh.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08P0s3z610
And so it was, the family cleaned themselves and got ready for bed. But before Tatsumaki fell into her bed, Izuku approached her.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp36ZRxQZHt
Izuku: “Tatsu, before you go to bed, I have a question.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9sfthrRf4q
Tatsumaki: “Sure, what is it?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUTwdcLuWJX
The brother led her to the empty living room and sat down. Tatsu, sensing a serious conversation, sat down next to him and waited.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONdDXBCpww
Izuku: “Tatsu, how does it feel to be so powerful? Are you ever… scared of it?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjfo7NbkyCC
Tatsumaki: “Izu, why are you asking me this? What’s happening?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHXxQm7GPb
Izuku: “Please, just answer me.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAIo7vHWYSf
She sighs before answering.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyArgcBMdM
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLfylVEYB8
She doesn’t let her brother see the burden such power gives you or the heartbreak that comes when you fail despite it.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWaNzFgXDV
All Izuku sees is his amazing and powerful big sister.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBk5CKxLkWj
Tatsumaki: “As for the second question…”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7X5r6vbo0m
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwqsZzKRVr
She wonders if there is something more to her brother’s quirk.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡofHYb4QhUQ
So with that in mind, she changes her answer and lets some vulnerability show.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFmIj85GHG
Tatsumaki: “There were only two times when I was ever scared of my power or even resentful of it.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mwNUIZLf8
Izuku: “R-Really? Why?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32x6OClz2P
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibemewvpHm
Izuku: “W-What did you do?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6XPmMY0V9
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeluTHRfwSR
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP54orrfGVK
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?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjh0llIbFPC
Izuku: “Wow… I didn’t expect this from you.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpvIzQevy2
Tatsumaki: “Hey! I have my big sister moments from time to time.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbL1QFFzPQR
Izuku: “Hahaha, I know. Thanks, Tatsu. I won’t disappoint you; I’ll… master my quirk.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMps9ymSAb
Tatsumaki: “I expect nothing less. Now.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdcvb6QEN1
She gets up and stretches.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMc19fmQtL
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblgCbxMUlk
Izuku: “Right, good night, Tastu.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0iXaf7TIFJ
Tatsumaki: “Sweet dreams, Izu.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC16ApAFqVI
Sweet dreams… huh?
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlxu36c0An1
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpY253CftJm
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTSpa1PWpT
Once again, she failed to be there for him. She could feel his negative feelings, and it was terrible. Confused, painful, and alone.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYeBYgmuhGl
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYfO5pvAbWR
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6AsmBKadHi
Panicking a bit, she called out telepathically.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmI0VEEwKr
Kiri: “Izuku? Where are you?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsq3q7yCBW0
After a moment, she got a response.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDxTahFx7p9
Izuku: “Roof.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡycAw1xoUtt
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTccjA1fcY
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtI4GKtlUxV
Kiri: “Izu.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡql2hAyuTRU
Izuku: “Couldn’t sleep either?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFIp4mNlw9
Kiri: “Nh.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKapifPeASX
Izuku: “…I’m sorry if I… scare you. I’ll get better at using my quirk; I have to.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzuMczKrVgj
Kiri: “You don’t scare me.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAFz51jOKH
Izuku: “Then why do you shiver when we’re together?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyaBteIBQ1
Should she tell him? He doesn’t know how his… outburst affected her. Would telling him just make things worse?
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRh2wGS9K6l
Izuku: “You don’t have to say anything; I know.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1xS8YPCAD
Kiri: “Know… what?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHf1ICS8Pui
Izuku: “How what I did affected you.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWJeoprz7aR
Her eyes widen.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3YbRIEjBr
Kiri: “How?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6TreVoPtA
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlU6IJYW2UC
Kiri: “… Nh.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa1XTmfVS2k
It happened not that long after the UA attack, a sudden jump in power. She felt… more complete somehow.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEsM1Pw2jVj
Izuku: “That’s why… I understand why you don’t want to touch me. I’m… sorry, Kiri, for what I did.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFEdZA8gon
Kiri: “Don’t apologize; you were just trying to save me.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhQk01OAPrO
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKRFx54tJV
His hands tighten around the railings enough to dent it a bit.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi8zsHY229U
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dKkhWZjW9
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAD4RyRCsIb
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwleGeEBqmY
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGgIaJcgqGz
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.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34D2JBhTCW
Kiri shakes her head.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipdmx19ykQ
Kiri: “I want to stay. Izu, I… ”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdse4EjCHjH
That familiar feeling returns, strong enough to smother the itchiness. This time, she follows through.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOytq9krmR
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLk5WEQq6e
Izuku: “K-Kiri?”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Cv85gj10J
Kiri: “You’re not alone; we’ll both improve and become heroes together. I won’t leave your side again, Izu.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOlKct9l0el
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2itqgO3xnP
Kiri: “Come.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQKbuVSecE
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy6nytEezke
But she doesn’t; she hugs his chest and buries her face in his neck.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBmWA6qkW9Y
The feeling is horrible.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPaKDUscXwQ
Like several insects crawling and biting her skin. Her body is shaking like a leaf in a hurricane.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfM7Ae75OAr
Izuku: “Kiri, stop. Go back to Mom’s room.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXh73PcNGSf
Kiri: “N-No.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2trYN6Swr
She won’t back down from this. She hangs on for dear life as the sensation gets worse.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy4leJmV5Q0
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAgDANwCtuT
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcx9CZBDeFo
Kiri: “I-It will be okay. It will be okay.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69sy8ABxVV
Izuku: “Kiri…”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0U0BdquA6J
And like a storm, eventually, it passes. As if she passed some threshold or test, the sensation stopped.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0p0raNIj8
The insects disappear, and the feeling is replaced with the warmth they both missed. Kiri stops shaking and settles comfortably into Izuku.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorIqvIyFTs
He senses this and sighs with relief.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhgvzc0Ut4
Kiri: “See? I told you, I won’t leave your side again.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOI6RfdPU64
Izuku closes his eyes and smiles. He really has amazing sisters. He embraces her tightly, conveying all the gratitude he could.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMq7kK7QDOX
Izuku: “Kiri, thank you.”
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKCrNPNqUDS
She smiles as the two finally get some restful sleep.

Fanfic Adapted: Tatsumaki: Tornado of Trouble by Whackybiscuit [2022]
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ282LtkT82B
(WARNING: it’s 18+. This is where Arashi comes from. Their history is similar to Chapter 1. But their current relationship is more original.)
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyRq6sWe8ZP
A/N: Damn, this was way bigger than I thought. It was fun though, so I hope you enjoyed it.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdY4DTvbwPq
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGQIqog4Qmd
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdBWyootqD
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSJ5ZvMd1X
If she is not able to get One For All, I will lose darn near all interest in this ship.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZXbn82sHJ
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdGUeCS14O
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCt6REZyuGg
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniCuWV6iUI
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ76is9ebz15
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IDiWKRx0d
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.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVNVIhk3qI
For example, Tomura can kill him and he has no resistance to mental attacks.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ87za5yYFID
For those that don’t want Saitama in this story at all, comment now or forever hold your peace.
68Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgsPseF2Jtl
Well, that’s all I want to talk about. Till next time.
