"Gosh..." Uma started, shaking her head at the thought. "That place was so tense when you guys left, you could cut it with a knife!"
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMHqhQk1F8
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Oq9h0eE2P
Mitsuki lightly laughed.
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbCatMMxmT
"Sorry about that, but hey, look at the bright side! At least we never saw that bitch Kaori and her brats again! And, I haven't hit Katsuki as much! My new fiance has been keeping his ass in check!"
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaM6Tm84Iwj
Uma raised an eyebrow. New fiance? She hadn't mentioned anything like that! Was that the surprise she promised to give them?
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnUl0hnhDlJ
"You didn't tell us you found another person in your life! Congratulations!" Hajime applauded. "Hopefully he's a better pick than that sissy you call your ex!"
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZgeR5JEt4w
"Don't worry, Dad!" Mitsuki grinned. "This man is a way better catch and is twice the man Masaru ever was!" She leaned into the kitchen, grabbing Jason by his arm, and pulled him into the living room. "Mother and Father, my fiance, Jason!"
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzL7Ihr1q1
Jason hesitantly waved to the elderly couple, seemingly towering over the two.
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBD5hpvsaN
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mYgxiozyB
"Uh... Hello Mister and Mrs. Kinishinai, it's a pleasure to be able to talk to you again!"
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0gAnwnNCHg
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkRglCd5Fo
Hajime's and Uma's eyes widened at the sight of their daughter's fiance. This was the guy she was marrying?! Memories flashed back to them when their daughter had brought Jason home, for them to get to know her newly acquired friend! They remembered how nervous he was, how he wouldn't even look Hajime in the eye! But when they asked him what they thought of their daughter, it was like he could go on and on about her, like how energetic she was and how it helped him come out of his shell! Along with that, they saw through his semi-long, raven black hair, was a small tint of pink on his cheeks whenever Mitsuki talked about his personality! To them, it was obvious that their daughter loved Jason and vice versa for Jason! However, they were overtaken by sadness when they discovered that Jason moved back to the United States, and felt awful for their daughter, (who locked herself in her room whenever she got home from school) crying about how she never had the chance to shoot her shot and confess her feelings for Jason. But now, it was like fate had pulled them back together!
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfaOYqaBfWZ
"Oh, Jason, sweetie!" Uma cooed, looking up to the taller male. "You've grown so tall! I still remember when I was able to look you in the eye!"
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEZi1SbH4x
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNr6TuXS47q
Jason chuckled.
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LATDxKCln
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5stY3W88o8
"Yeah, I remember too, I hit a growth spurt a few weeks after I got back to the States, I went from five foot ten to about six foot six!" He said, leaning down to hug his future mother-in-law. "How have you both been? Are you still living in Musutafu?"
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHz41UyGfSJ
"Mhm, it's still a peaceful place, no villain attacks our area!" Hajime confidently said, "How about your dad? How's he doing?"
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEVkZaTxG5
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcxct5bqdw
"I have no idea. I haven't talked to him in nineteen years." Jason said, rolling his eyes slightly. "He cut contact with me because I didn't want to live the life he tried forcing on me."
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPg89NXGYEG
"I'm sorry to hear about that, son," Hajime said sympathetically, rubbing Jason's shoulder. "We're glad to see that you're back in Japan! We both missed you!"
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhlK590xoc
"Hey, what caused you and Masaru to divorce?" Uma inquired.
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡccTAQvMyDW
"Oh, don't even get me started!" Mitsuki groaned, leaning onto her husband's side. "When Katsuki was in his third year of middle school, he came out as gay to me and Masaru! All I did was voice some concerns about Katsuki's future, and Masaru had a problem with that!" Mitsuki huffed, while Jason nodded in agreement. "Well, it's not my fault that Katsuki wants to throw his life away to live such a disgusting lifestyle!"
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3sokqt4ShI
Almost instantaneously, Hajime and Uma's smiles disappeared.
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV215T0XJX1
"He's what?!" Uma exclaimed with a look of shock coating her face. "Ugh, I thought he was better than that! Now he won't be successful!"
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lKuJnUl5I
"That's just fucking great," Hajime grumbled. "I'm going to have to disinfect our room, I don't wanna catch whatever ruined my grandson's potential!"
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVYoQ9Za9e
"Tell me about it," Jason snorted. "That fucking queer always whines and bitches about how his mother and I think! If he doesn't like what I've got to say, he can leave!"
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUFdLRSzbr
"You see that Mitsuki, that's what I love about Jason!" Hajime smiled. "He's not like your doormat of an ex, he's willing to stand up for his beliefs!"
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhFbH1iFht
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrML24R1N5x
"And that's what makes him the best!" Mitsuki grinned.

Unbeknownst to the four of them, as they continued to bash Katsuki, the ash-blonde was sitting on top of the stairs, trying desperately to keep himself together. He hated how he couldn't go downstairs and tell his grandparents that they shouldn't be judging him for his lifestyle! After all, it was his life, they didn't have any say in who the ash-blonde loved, as long as it was legal, and that he was happy! He could feel the hot tears welling in his eyes, as they spilled down his cheeks (much to the ash blonde's dismay). It shattered the ash blonde's heart, However, he knew that he could never say these things to his grandparents, for he would have to deal with Jason and his 'discipline'. He shuddered at the thought. If he acts good, then Jason wouldn't have to discipline him! Then he wouldn't deserve it... Right?
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPMEHdf3We
He quickly wiped away the tears from his cheeks, before heading down the stairs.
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡROd9LFshJR
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhpWeNPYC74
"Oh, speak of the devil!" Jason laughed. "We're just talking about you!"
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGA0GQDgpZ
"Hello, sir..." Katsuki mumbled, looking down at the ground.127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXk6cDpEaTL
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8aAtTHwgA
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1nC37hDyu
"Say, Mom, Dad, Mitsuki and I were going to head to the store so that we can get some food to make a meal! We'll be out for an hour or so, Katsuki can keep you both company while we're gone!" Jason smiled, leaning down to Katsuki's ear. "Isn't that right?"
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBmBZVTvgv
Katsuki nodded quickly.
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgImrlFPryP
"O-Of course! I'll do it, s-sir!" Katsuki exclaimed slightly, his voice cracking slightly as the fear wrapped around his words.
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQn5nvwtbj
Jason smiled, ruffling the ash blonde's hair.
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHZt3IGozb
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbleRiG4PrU
"Good!" He clicked his tongue softly, causing the ash blonde to grimace. He was leaving the ash-blonde completely helpless. What if a villain attacked, and took advantage of him?! He started to breathe heavily, the overwhelming sense of dread overtook his body. He didn't do anything wrong, so why was his quirk erased?! Unless... No... Jason wasn't planning on disciplining him later, right..? He could feel himself tremble at the thought, and he hated it, he hated it so much! He didn't want Jason to make him feel like a dirty piece of trash, sitting in the bathtub, consumed by scalding hot water, scrubbing away the dirtiness that would never go away. He never wanted to feel that way again! His thoughts were cut off by Jason, who tightened his grip on the ash blonde's shoulder. "Hey, would you calm down?! You don't want to embarrass yourself and your parents in front of your grandparents, do you?"
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtbmSqdQ7C
The ash-blonde nodded again.
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjeBu75ulnl
"Sorry, sir..."
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi508spU4C0
"It's fine, I think it's time for you to take your meds, why don't you go do that."
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSvZb5GIA9
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YbSPHnwvN
The ash-blonde nodded, before walking towards the bathroom.
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0njUzxDKsB
"Gosh, that kid acting like his fucking father." Hajime taunted as he rolled his eyes. "I thought he was much tougher than that."
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6mzz2xN2iW
"I blame it on him being gay," Uma huffed. "It took away all his potential to be a professional hero, nobody would want that to be a part of their organization."
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDyvqYz2AA
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0aZDdaekN
"Well, we all can discuss this at dinner! Mitsuki and I should get going now, we'll see you later!" Jason smiled, before walking out the door, his fiance in tow.
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghzGvwADms
Meanwhile, in the bathroom, Katsuki stood in front of the sink, staring at what he used to be. The confident, overzealous teenager was no longer there, instead, all he saw was a weak, dirty, and disgusting queer standing in front of him. He despised the person standing in front of him. He slowly opened the medicine cabinet, hiding his reflection, and grabbed the bottle of pills. Gosh, he could still remember when his parents first brought the medication to him, begging him to take it to calm down his anger. Much to their dismay, the pills never worked, instead, they did the opposite, giving the ash-blonde insane headaches, nausea whenever he ate, and it caused him to not be able to sleep, which affected his studies. It only took a week of taking these awful medications for Katsuki to declare to Mitsuki and Masaru that he would never take these meds again, no matter what. Yet, here he was, holding the pill bottle in his hands.
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUk5QRlk8r6
He brought his hand up to the blue cap, fumbling with it for a second before popping the lid off. He poured out a capsule, the small, white and green pill sat daintily in his hand. His thoughts were practically screaming at him to pour the rest of the bottle in his hand, and take all the pills at once. Then, he would be free! Free from the clasps of homophobia that his family forced on him, free from the constant fear and anxiety that whatever he did, it may be punished by Jason, and better yet, he'd be with his father again... He shook his head, before setting the pill bottle on the kitchen sink, and popped the pill into his mouth. He quickly swallowed it and grabbed a small, disposable cup that was sitting on the right side, filled it with water, and drank it, making sure that the pill would stay down there.
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaWZId8GmVx
He let out a quiet sigh, before exiting the bathroom, and back to the living room, where his grandparents resided. A part of him wanted to just camp out in the bathroom, free from all the judgment that he was sure his grandparents would give to him, but the other part of him knew that he would have to put up with the judgemental looks because Jason told him to spend time with them. As he came into his grandparents' view, he put on a fake smile, giving them a small wave.
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTYp4WfYJ08
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoc9mWDLgDV
"Come, sit!" Uma commanded, pointing at a chair across from them. "We want to ask you some questions!"127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQ1p8eyVbM
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡULxH6gRvrw
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP2jUyBAQ2u
"Uh... Ok." The ash-blonde said out of confusion, before taking a seat. What were they planning to ask him? "What do you want to know..?"
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3Buy19vWX
"How long ago did you decide to live this disgusting lifestyle?" Uma asked, flashing the ash-blonde a fake smile.
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70W5BUa1Zu
"I... I didn't choose to be gay... I was born this way... I knew that I was gay ever since I was six..!" The ash-blonde mumbled, trying his best to remain respectful, while also trying to keep himself from showing that they were hurting him with their words.
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9HiPLaHSx
"Sure, you can!" Hajime interjected, leering towards the ash blonde. "There are camps that fix people like you! Perhaps I can convince my daughter to send you to one of them! Then you can live up to your potential!"
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSE8TquQnJE
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoKI5edogV
Katsuki's eyes widen slightly at Hajime's threat. Was he being serious? Katsuki had heard horror stories about those types of camps, how they viciously beat the poor kids who were forced by their parents, who couldn't possibly live with the fact that they wouldn't be having grandchildren. He knew that the children were treated like trash, often being forced to pray away whatever was causing them to be gay, and if they refused to comply, they were beaten viciously. Hell, he even read a story once where they strapped down a kid to a table, put on gay porn, and tased his manhood every time he got erect. And he knew that there were only two options that most kids choose; they either succumb to the therapy to satisfy their parents or... commit suicide because they thought that dying would be better than complying. If Hajime did convince Mitsuki to send him to a foreign country in order to 'fix' him, he wouldn't know what he would do! If the therapy didn't work, and he didn't commit suicide, then he would have nothing. Surely Mitsuki wouldn't allow him to stay home, and he would probably have to drop out of U.A. He let out a shaky sigh. He hated thinking about that sort of thing.

"I can live up to my potential, I don't have to tell people..."
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4fYYjC4kT
"That's beside the point." Uma jeered. "You aren't going to fall in love with your stepdad, right? There's no reason for you to be a homewrecker, after all, you are a disappointment, no need to cause other people problems!"
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnqqJ3noxi
"I-I-I'm not into my-"
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Ke8zowM56
"Please, why would he be interested? He'll be going to U.A and practically begging for all the boys to rail him!" Hajime taunted, almost as if he was trying to trigger a reaction from the ash blonde. "Would you be the guy or the girl in the relationship? You know, would you receive or give?"
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjID26dCRPG
Katsuki frowned.
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaiS321n4b
"There is no guy or girl... it's just two guys... And I don't feel comfortable with telling you guys about my personal life..."
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpv6yplbo3
"But you are such a handsome man!" Uma griped. "You don't even seem like the type that would be gay! Like, I can't tell with you! But after all, you did change from the sweet little boy into this disgusting thing!" She pointed towards Katsuki, circling around his body.
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5xOTKRL0nn
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvS9maiRKky
Katsuki just remained quiet, knowing that any argument he provides will be futile. All of these questions were making the ash-blonde really uncomfortable, especially since it was coming from his own grandparents. It seemed to them that he had transformed into another person, one that they despised. It made the ash-blonde feel like shit. And worst of all, he couldn't even defend himself properly in this argument! If he could speak freely, he'd truly show his grandparents that being gay was completely natural, and in fact, quite beautiful! But he couldn't stand up to his family's hate, because he'd be disobeying Jason, and he would never disobey him.
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbU5kCp1Vb
"And what about my daughter?! It's been her dream to become a grandparent! But noooo! You just had to be selfish and ruin my daughter's dream!" Hajime snapped, getting the ash blonde's attention. "What do you have to say for yourself?!"
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4q7TqPZEN
"I..." Katsuki frowned slightly, trying to come up with the most respectful response he could. "I can still have kids... There's always adoption... Or I can get a surrogate..."
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDen03aDim
"I think you may be jumping to conclusions, Hajime! In order for Katsuki to start a family, he has to actually find someone who actually likes that bratty personality of his!" Uma laughed, her husband following suit.
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZG4FjrEuld
The ash-blonde sighed.
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSRmlXjY8V7
"I'm sorry..." Katsuki said softly. "I'm sorry for ruining your lives..."
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQpInZfWu6
Hajime opened his mouth, as if he was about to throw another insult towards the ash blonde, however, before he could, the door swung open, revealing Jason and Mitsuki, each carrying bags of food!
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCGTjFz9cA
"We're back!" Mitsuki smiled, closing the door behind her. "Aww! Look at that, you guys are bonding!"
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7McuQtVds

Uma nodded, letting out a small chuckle.

"That's right! Katsuki has been telling us how excited he is to go to U.A! Isn't that right, Katsuki?"
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCMfoXqNu5
"Uh-huh..."
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcEltFGoMkv
"Well, sorry to cut your conversation short!" Jason said, shoving the bags onto Katsuki's lap. "But Katsuki is going to make us a big feast! Isn't that right?"
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF6ha999MnF
The ash-blonde nodded, knowing fully that he didn't have a choice in the matter. He stood up from his place on the chair and went to the kitchens, the bags in tow.
127Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgX2pFNbsHH
He had a feast to prepare.
