Before the U.A Attack[Tatsumaki Omake]
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa32r8E4SuX
Tatsumaki: “Annoying.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4AFdsTMsF
With a simple finger, the quirk beast that was wreaking havoc in the street was torn apart by a small tornado.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMNtOfpk5V
“Wow, that must be a new record. Not even property damage this time. Good job.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtsJRThcQn
Tatsumaki: “Shut it, Arashi.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIfhOEfk1a
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4umIwUnMp9
He was a pretty simple, if not a bit handsome, looking young man with black hair and a loose business suit.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgArCB00lR
Tatsumaki: “Anyway, this was much easier than I expected. You said this was some dangerous beast. Couldn’t some other hero handle it?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCWrTNZzw3
Arashi: “There were none nearby. I saw the beast. I gave you a call. You know how it is.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSiF0jOxzI
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKGLt9IEU6v
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCIpv7HW5V
Tatsumaki: “You do that.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMlbRdegGk4
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIqMN2A42b
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfIHPmmKfgR
Arashi: “Tatsumaki? Oh, you miss me already?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ZSTa2o77v
Tatsumaki: “Shut it, Arashi. Anyway, how’s the situation? Do you need me for something?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKAkGCZaZIP
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDdFACgjqIs
Tatsumaki: “Hm… is that so?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTYa993KcF
Arashi: “Sooooo, what are you wearing?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZCPhtnUOv
She hung up and fought down the slight blush.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg9HujBGA5g
Tatsumaki: “He is so lucky he’s cu- I mean useful.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPV6IOvy5uV
She sighs and lies back on the floor. Her fight against boredom continues, and for once, she doesn’t think she’ll win.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRwhAkuQMV
Tatsumaki: “I could visit Arashi, but… that will get complicated fast. I’m not in the mood for that.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiF0uiWMGF0
Tatsumaki: “Fubuki is busy with her agency, tch, like always. Izuku and Kiri are at school. I guess I can visit Mom.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0rf2aSiIf5
She prepares to get dressed and meet her but instead stops. A smile grows on her face.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV309rjXDws
Tatsumaki: “This might be a good excuse to test that out.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6FZbLNVr1
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnhwGhCgfQ
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?
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NB01GzsSE
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfNXdGtURe
Either by bending space, breaking her down, and moving her elsewhere, or something else, whatever was easier.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReZBwcIgSb
After a moment of actual effort, she felt something happen and smiled. In the next instant, she was in the kitchen.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyBajlhFgc
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFyU5f5aBv
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0wN6A5ibPs
Tatsumaki: “…Yes.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jKqJ3ejgn
Inko: “Sweetie, did I see what I think I just saw?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7O8fQyfbK
Tatsumaki: “… Would you believe me if I said no?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYbIqe1ZXg3
Inko didn’t say anything, but managed to say everything.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJ0BdCGRcf
Tatsumaki: “Don’t tell Fubu or Izu.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXbkxqnEwPe
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2J6xyJPoem
Tatsumaki: “T-Thanks, mom, I’ll do that.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWYKj2wx3o
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHNR69akVnH
Tatsumaki: “Teleportation is overrated anyway.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECYL7kuwWF

After the U.A Attack
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH5MeyayjS3
“So far we have three villains that were leading this attack.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqAaheGGaOz
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqke8L8kK3r
She was ready to get out and find these villains as quickly as possible.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23CG2GCIEp
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXxk2t1lDc
All Might: “A group of villains with someone like that can be very dangerous.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgHHC8PyVa
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulsFJibttV
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡblQck0QBGU
Midnight: “Can’t believe I’m saying this about a handsome man, but I hope I never meet him again.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOIRMallJbY
Naomasa: “What’s worse is that we have no info on him. Azrael is clearly an alias.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5OcC1wUIl
Nezu: “The angel of death… ”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWITiizGfC
Snipe: “You can say that again. Looking at him was like staring down the barrel of a rifle.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdPe02ARS0
Naomasa: “Based on that, I’d imagine the only ones that should face him are the top 3 pros.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpuj6Kw0rTe
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, I’ll take care of them all by myself. I just need a location.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3U2sbzeym4
Naomasa: “Sad to say, with a warping quirk user on their side, they could be anywhere.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0xvlyRWMKz
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ758B1roXth
Midnight: “Oh yeah, what about him? What do we know?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6CcLYv9uHm
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJnUAnv5kI
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… ”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6aXhPE10V
Midnight: “What’s his quirk?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAydoRbQS7x
Naomasa: “Unknown, Ms. Fubuki insists he used only technology in their fight.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWnNCYA42rC
Tatsumaki: “Then he shouldn’t be a problem when I find him. I can easily rip the gear off of him.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJZqMLVxaIn
Naomasa: “If you find him. And who knows how you’ll fare against his Psychic Disruptor.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8hrPLmBSNC
Snipe: “Something he made with you and your family in mind. I wonder why he seems so focused on you.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxJeLkmvhE
Tatsumaki: “Simple, he’s scared of me. Hmph, I don’t blame him. His little plan wouldn’t have worked if I was there.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Dx1qA646Y
Naomasa: “Which makes his plans all the more dangerous. He can work around powerful obstacles and come up with countermeasures.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEQwhqV7EU
Vlad: “The longer he’s out there, the harder it will be to deal with him and this league of villains.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnnMLR8iWYh
Nezu: “That’s not the most disturbing thing about him, is it, Tsukauchi?
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKukGx9LOx
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HDL6raFZI
The room grew quiet at that revelation. A villain that smart yet barely a teenager.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHhk4eiJUqi
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpJKJQ9IHJ
Midnight: “Why?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32z6tjBfzz
Nezu: “Because it means the elevation of a person to divine status, essentially becoming a god.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIAH15vNhX
Naomasa: “So this kid is incredibly arrogant and egotistical to give himself such a title.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hkxpu4IDh
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtJ3nata57
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtb4Z9Yt2KE
Tatsumaki: “You worry too much.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GTPBR8ygO
Nezu: “Perhaps.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxOnoOFbyu
All Might: “What about the last one, the one young Midoriya fought?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4gO0nNaY5
Naomasa: “Well… as you all know… there wasn’t anything left of him. Ms. Fubuki and Midoriya made sure of it.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ygKryHGCB
Vlad: “But what I want to know is how? Based on what Aizawa said, this creature had strength comparable to All Might’s.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcE3dyuOmIJ
All Might: “Yeah, and taking a punch from young Tae is no easy feat.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8uH15DCMN
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6OnQZB6bG
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Pm8Bm5cCY
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwq69UFXoR
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡooh3MxrP8K
Vlad: “Hmmm, I don’t like it. What are they hiding?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJ1CgHuzf3
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSREFo5lOXD
Naomasa: “I agree, it’s worrying, but nothing we should concern ourselves over.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq73m2UEUXV
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?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJ9TY9sijG
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5k8c6c9Lw
Midnight: “But aren’t you curious about what your brother is hiding and why?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdUcd9MO5o
Tatsumaki: “No, I trust my brother. Now, I would suggest you stop asking these questions, Midnight.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBuB5E2W4u
The two ladies glared at each other for a moment before All Might coughs to snap them out of it.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9n39Txt4jX
All Might: “We should get back on track.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YtzhUvyRI
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, you do that. I got what I needed.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgg0aluuA4
Tatsumaki opened the window next to her and flew out in search of her prey.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGueNtvJnw
Midnight: “Ugh, tell me why we put up with her again.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXPD3DfwML
Snipe: “Ha, you’re just jealous Tatsumaki and her sister beat you in the most attractive female heroes ranking.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPElnhEAHle
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0uBybH2Et
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUS8jGkqPMI
All Might: ‘If only I was at my prime…’
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡedNnhvWeiT
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELG4hZZimT
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyxf2q8ZYZQ
She understands that they would be shaken by the attack, but there’s something else wrong.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY69xOixP9V
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK59uDt1L57
No, what’s wrong is when she suddenly stops and looks colder than usual. But that doesn’t compare to Izuku.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafb1DXjKYO
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLG4CWFdk5
Tatsumaki won’t pick up her calls, and Fubuki is always busy. Enough is enough.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3nG5mN68c
It’s time for a family get-together.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡABDnpFeqka
While eating at the table in uncomfortable silence, Inko makes her move.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyLBoJgadC
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHE5Vy55J8
Izuku: “… I don’t know. I’m not in the mood.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nIXtU9lWm
Kiri: “…Nh.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIYEgymWM27
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVri76k88JJ
Izuku: “… I don’t think that’s possible.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZWwXdt2Pc
Inko: “Sweetie, please. I’m worried, and I… want to help. Just a few hours with your sisters.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPedlFoEL1
Izuku looks at Kiri, who looks back. She smiles, trying to bring some warmth back into his life.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoWmbGvrzg
Kiri: “I would… like it. Can we?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh51LNlChMj
Inko: “See? Kiri is willing to try it.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNfNocK8MKR
Izuku: “…Okay.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ99pdskrJV5
Inko: “Great! Now I just have to get Fubuki and Tatsumaki.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYnH2uPNpsi
Inko grabs her phone and dials Fubuki first. Hopefully, she has the time.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyA8mc4nml
Fubuki: “Yes, Mom?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LNanyBfgS
Inko: “We’re getting the family together for a nice relaxing day, just to have fun. What do you say?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkn7mmPBo3o
Fubuki: “I would love to, but-”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUMkyPGYYRl
Inko: “Fubuki, please. I feel like… I’m losing you all. Izuku barely talks, and even Kiri can’t get to him.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0wiojZZg0
Fubuki: “He what? What’s wrong with Izuku?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB48vcyi5XH
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdMACxxeYG
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAUPqy45Ele
Inko: “Yes!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡparN8hU1qG
Fubuki: “But how will you get Tatsu to come? She’s been… distant recently.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5S255e6Ql
Inko: “It might be underhanded, but it’s for her own good.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QTxDZn6nz
30 minutes later
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSuaP9n4Skc
Tatsumaki bursts through the front door, ready to tear apart whoever dared to attack her home.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVnXvHtvYtI
Tatsumaki: “Izuku! Mom! Where-”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV860z9rxkj
Instead of a crisis, she sees a normal living room with her whole family present.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxErMRy4ABK
Tatsumaki: “… What the fu-”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfTKbrcg12A
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFw0d19MnQ
Tatsumaki closed her eyes and pinched her nose. Her heart was about to break out of her chest, and it was for nothing!?
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvvh5xZeNb
Tatsumaki: “…Why… why would you do that to me?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPhuukjhVq
Inko walked to Tatsumaki and hugged her softly.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr8eOZZOQup
Inko: “Because I’m worried, and we left off on a terrible note. I don’t want to lose you.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhUNXV2146
Tatsumaki: “Mom, you won’t lose me. But nearly giving me a heart attack just to say that, really?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKSzSKa9K6
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtWF6CAxgZb
Tatsumaki: “… Villains don’t take breaks.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKExiAFall
Inko: “But heroes should. If they don’t, they might lose to those villains.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sOI70F6wT
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, I could be on my deathbed and still beat them.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1e51JF9Rfw
Inko: “Maybe, but I want my baby at 100%. That way she can better defend those precious to her, right?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LXZ6qrHqi
The eldest daughter took a moment to think about it, glancing at her siblings before sighing in resignation.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ckLIwzVYp
Tatsumaki: “…Just a few hours and that’s it.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ54v33vH6vo
Inko: “Yes!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOqdXSJxzG
The first part is over; now she needs to find something for everyone to do.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNv5QKjZ4U1
She leads Tatsumaki further into the home, completing the family gathering. But that’s when Fubuki noticed something off about Tatsumaki’s eyes.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOlpmwCWnP
Fubuki: “Sister… are you wearing… eyeliner?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqTm1z77L2
Tatsumaki: “W-What? No!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1XpvYHAJr1
Inko: “Ohhh, has my baby finally decided to take her makeup seriously? Let me guess, it’s a boy, right?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYraZIpCpq
Tatsumaki: “No! We’re not like that!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QL4q8QsYN
Silence.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxBd0ZJZ98C
Stunned silence and widened eyes are what you would see in this household. Even Izuku was taken aback.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡflY3ISdlIN
We?
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfPkfWkt4fQ
We imply two people.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1dhZjofV3
Two people in this context mean a couple.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwlBqS29slH
Tatsumaki being straight means it’s a guy. A he?
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkd4nrDosIq
He?
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTSyysiohe
HE!?
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlVbHPDeas
Inko’s smile brightens like the sun while Fubuki leans her head against a wall.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QXWUrjpCc
Tatsumaki: “Mom, wait-”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCqgvwvpHl
Inko: “My baby girl has finally become a woman!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7raQkKZMOT
Tears stream down the mother’s face. She never said anything, but she was worried her daughter would never find a guy.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwilLpGsP5h
Izuku: “No way.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhqCoWwezPT
Fubuki: “I can’t believe it, big sis got a boyfriend before me. How could this happen?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbG1t2kwPx3
Kiri: “New nephew or niece?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB83f51FJkT
Tatsumaki’s face was beyond red at this point. She covered her face in shame.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcU7tsINpDQ
Tatsumaki: “Come on, stoooop. We’re just… coworkers.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7nzqk3S3b
Inko: “Does this ‘coworker’ have a name?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gUpgP1R23
Tatsumaki: “…I’m not telling.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY6RQ5f1Hyw
Inko: “Ohhhh, you can be so cute sometimes, Tatsu.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Jme10vnwC
Izuku: “So is it true? You really have a boyfriend?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1ztBrnaCp
Tatsumaki: “No! The only reason I’m wearing makeup is to… cover up the bags.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4MfCiAlgf
The once joyful atmosphere sobered as the family looked at Tatsumaki.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ctcJOdXQb
Fubuki: “Sister, how long has it been since you’ve slept?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nPTbXEofj
Tatsumaki: “Hmph, I sleep enough.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzm3Kavako
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOChXi6grCe
Tatsumaki: “Izu, Y-You can’t sleep?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YWGQpBpll
Izuku: “It’s been… a bit difficult.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfgC2uT1NTL
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ld8ypgFca
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡksbeJbzy2r
Tatsumaki: “Okay, let’s do this then. If you really think it will help.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ly3gflH2f
Inko: “Great!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqz6IpJ0YXL
Izuku: “But what are we doing?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsIhNZ3aKs
Inko: “Haha, would you believe me if I said I didn’t plan that far ahead.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmZQmvg9br
Fubuki: “Mom…”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOehqynYp3
Inko: “Oops. But don’t worry! By the time you all dress yourselves in something casual, I will have come up with something.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5lZhFtbjU
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnHo4auzP1
Izuku had simple gray pants and a white shirt with an open blue hoodie over it.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6clOTF76mR
Kiri wore a long-sleeve yellow shirt that was a size too big but emphasized her cuteness.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBueNCTmC7
Fubuki had a red dress shirt and a long gray skirt. Together with sunglasses, it made her look truly stylish.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5khjBNJdCV
Tatsumaki wore a black shirt with a biker jacket over it and a dark frilly skirt.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfpc7x9Da9
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZamEIEAm6
Inko: “You all look great. Okay, my plan is that we go to the amusement park.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV0xyTiApfP
Fubuki: “Sounds good, we can take my car.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidAJyjW3tk
Tatsumaki: “Why drive when we can fly?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ViznYNakn
Fubuki: “Because not all of us can fly, and it’s pretty far.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzFp0GkJRtn
Tatsumaki: “You carry Mom, I carry Kiri. Think of it like training.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnGkY4Ut5so
Fubuki: “Training? They’re not that heavy.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBX2ocGC80s
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4c9l4ileU
Fubuki: “We also got in trouble for using our quirk.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqNXzOUI0H
Tatsumaki: “We’re heroes now; they won’t say anything. Now come on.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fGPsQVnCH
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqQm4Fa40t
Fubuki: “Izu?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPGWKOaaOba
Tatsumaki: “What’s wrong?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Gm74sd6NO
Izuku was outside looking up at them, seemingly hesitating to use his quirk. Not wanting to worry them though, he shakes his head.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LT7UjNyPA
Izuku: “N-Nothing.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3sUB7Zgtk8
He slowly lifts himself and joins them in the sky.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehuUGGqbHJ
Tatsumaki: “Great, now try to keep up.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMZ6aCeoqV
Fubuki: “No, we’re not blasting off.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYAXIRZLKe
Inko: “I would prefer a more leisurely flight. I love looking at the world below pass by.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVATM22Dcvk
Izuku: “Agreed.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMinEmSMCmx
Kiri: “Nh.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsC1NYNpfeb
Tatsumaki: “Darn, outvoted. Fine, we can go grandma speed.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8eMbbimy9Q
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2y06SHJsN
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5VuYpzynM
Kiri: “Colorful.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRYBjs0rm7L
Inko: “Yep, I’m glad it’s giving you a good first impression, Kiri. So gang, what’s first?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOuQwaf8Dhd
“Bumper Cars!” “Roller Coaster.” “Food!” “Ferris Wheel!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmP01HgoPu
It seemed like everyone had different desires.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZBu4vrTFFl
Tatsumaki: “A Ferris wheel? Fubuki, come on! That’s boring.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLnvEgRT9vg
Fubuki: “Aren’t we too old for bumper cars?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxO2cWmxJjO
Tatsumaki: “Scared of losing? I understand.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwUBmlHkIC
Fubuki: “Ha, from what I remember, I always beat you at those.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7LU8hEkFc
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyPDTlfVcw
Tatsumaki: “Things will be different this time.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2akKHnlGY
Inko: “Okay, you all want to do something different. How about we play for it? Jan-ken-pon!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXuWT6HFH2
Tatsumaki: “And you said I was the one being too much of a kid.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAt9YrGLX4N
Izuku: “Does sound fair, though.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUsb325DPc
Kiri: “Nh.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGp60GOWh8i
Fubuki: “Let’s do it.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbW6wpqQual
Inko: “Great! Now get ready.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TmlLPSiII
Everyone got into battling position.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9wrszF7jFN
Inko: “Jan!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnMdcUih00
Izuku: “Ken.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAF9shryTh
Tatsumaki: “Pon!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvCjNhRk9o
The result? Fubuki won.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCPo25ajNW
Tatsumaki: “Darn it!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsb62CAqhxH
Fubuki: “Ferris wheel it is.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWZrpQN4cN
Inko: “We play again to decide in what order we’ll go in.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDdCk2H23w
The group played again, and at the end, the schedule looked like this.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjmwSDaeII
Ferris Wheel, Bumper Cars, Food, Shooting Range(Inko’s choice), and Roller Coaster.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWg0sTz0yX
Plan set, the family entered the amusement park and had some fun.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRliv6LMvz8
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPr8cUJfm5s
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdTh2vkThvn
Fubuki: “So we’ll buy another round or two, right?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjs4Fo24jRI
“Yep.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRXQIFOp8k
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjiE9ZO9b7
Next was the Bumper cars. The family was nothing but smiles throughout the whole game; it was good to return to simpler times.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYiogMrtiV
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDx8G0KLRD8
Inko: “Haha, don’t underestimate your mom, kids. I’ve been driving before you were all born.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7yBUulwx1Y
Fubuki: “You still need to beat me, the current champion of bumper cars.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUGY1xzTNk
Inko: “Former champion, you mean. Here I come!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Uv2auRpIK
It was a close match, but in the end, the mother won.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzeOtL5grm
Inko: “Hahahaha!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSV0hpF8eI
Fubuki: “I have to admit, Mom, you’re a good driver.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡchJqIDI5Ty
Kiri: “Nh.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7A1H9xZSBv
Tatsumaki: “You should show those skills more often. You usually drive like a snail.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUISPJF8LLF
Izuku: “I don’t think me and Kiri could survive Mom doing some of those moves.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6spIdOBkG
Kiri: “No, no.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJ8Lk3UfMf
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZnKpQo9xa
Kiri: “Mmmmmm!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFSOSqfzCMj
Cotton Candy.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG0SItSgD2D
Fubuki: “You two have a ridiculously big sweet tooth.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbL8TSiuyI0
Tatsumaki: “And we have no shame. Right, Kiri?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡviZ8CLSteq
Kiri: “Nh. Love it.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkifqt1V5vX
Fubuki hasn’t completely accepted Kiri yet, but she can now admit she’s cute with a smile.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWje318c1FJ
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNS9pgib1V
Inko got four massive cinnamon rolls.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0ai2dZ4iY
Inko: “What? It’s a free day today; I can splurge a bit.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzHJjfGD8IR
Izuku got some sherbet ice cream.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFvvigAay4
Fubuki, the most normal, got a strawberry smoothie.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDNi9vcbC8
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEmoFQ6AwH
Fubuki: “You moved the shot with your powers.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvVpmBLCuc
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVlFjhUwPb
Kiri: “Yes.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7PXdQzaGbj
Tatsumaki and Kiri dashed back to the food stalls while Fubuki sighed.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2SmVtGiTAL
Fubuki: “I swear they’ll bankrupt us at this point.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYzOGvDtJcS
Izuku: “At least they’re having fun.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjrEAorAMS
Inko: “Yeah. But… what about you, sweetie? How do you feel?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5sP05NGCeF
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡItbmfS37K7
Izuku: “Y-Yes, I’m… glad I came. It’s fun hanging out with you all again.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvL19fIlcgK
Inko hugs her son.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡijOmUEt6bG
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRr5Yvxji9N
Izuku: “I… will. Thank you, Mom.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7V8J3ao63
Inko: “Good. And the same applies to you, Fubuki.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHj9snZOPq
Fubuki: “Huh? Me?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2IExs1pLAH
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3EfLf5bRP
Fubuki: “R-Really? I…. didn’t notice. I’ll try to make more time, mom, I promise.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Y99MFmgWY
Inko: “That’s all I ask.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNoHEb4nbx
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSrXAWE0WJk
It was a great time; that is, until they got off the ride.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTmzq7YXySk
Inko: “Ugh… maybe we should have eaten after the Roller Coaster.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZdrCnW88w
Izuku: “Are you okay?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTmIggHJsC
Inko: “I think… I need to go to the bathroom. Wait for me!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBKxxh3Z2TO
Inko rushes to the bathroom while everyone else waits for her.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLmfW5LcLOj
Fubuki: “I should have stopped her when she went to eat more cinnamon rolls.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡewLyeyBrPL
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkUaHxr2xai
Fubuki: “… You’re right.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZFMT7SdPI
Tatsumaki: “What the heck is this!?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSnten6qfrK
The two espers look to their older sister, who seems to have found a new attraction.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr2CV4o1hMv
Izuku: “Kiri, can you wait for Mom?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKqTZf479G
Kiri: “Nh.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPsaaLqiBAf
Izuku: “Thanks.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3nV1IW9pN
The duo walked up to Tatsumaki, who was near what seemed to be a haunted house.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTQlDaQK8U
Izuku: “That’s strange. Was this always here?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqdbdmbhl2
Fubuki: “It is strange to have a haunted house in an amusement park.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBHgTLvFVo
Izuku: “Some people find amusement in being scared.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiIsZLkfRDC
Tatsumaki: “Freaks, I say. Who wants to be scared?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6XgnaduTe
The trio looked at the building for a few moments before Fubuki broke the silence.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRSn3UDweD
Fubuki: “So Tatsu, thinking of going in?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTdLGVDA1y
Tatsumaki: “W-What?! Of course not! I was just wondering why something like this was here.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJYes70go2
Fubuki: “I don’t know, sounds like you WANT to go in, but you’re too scared to.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0dgRe1I7By
Tatsumaki: “HUHHHH, NO WAY!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEd5DJekZE
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjejq05RdaZ
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!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAYRKPdkWhT
And there she goes, into the dark house of horrors. Izuku stares at Fubuki until she notices it.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIduP7qAE8U
Fubuki: “What?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0tLoqDUGen
Izuku: “…That was mean.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3jaasS9ME
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?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQpxmbhbFj3
Izuku: “And would you look at the time? I have to get back to Kiri.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3C2NineeL
Fubuki giggles as Izuku walks back the way he came. But as he does, he sees a familiar face.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtThIFN1zNf
Izuku: “Tsuyu!”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHnmUwdYOI
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjwLgmJ68WU
Tsuyu made her way to Izuku, making sure her siblings were behind her.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBf70IsMygH
Tsuyu: “H-Hello, Midoriya. H-Here with your family too?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXOLbT7UXcL
Izuku: “Yes. Are these your siblings?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvGQZ8USrwT
Tsuyu: “Yes. Satsuki, Samidare, this is Izuku Midoriya. T-The one I was telling you about. Say hi.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6QEpWArTQ
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuz5fOIuSjd
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-”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFbwLABwCX
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDnfU8waO1
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDai7MIrSrw
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72RUhQIjI1
Izuku: “Y-Yeah, the villains… I-I-It’s fine. I-I was being too forward. I’ll… leave.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcteTpRUuGP
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUaUjP7CjB
As for Izuku, his heart races and breaks at the memory of what he did during the attack. The monster he became.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8aPOSYPDpb
Before he can become lost in the guilt and shame, he feels Kiri hug him.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5pNDoSxuS
Kiri: “Onii…”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGP3WFKwluX
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr18m6Eryhu
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3UYjIMWj5Q
She lets him go and scratches her skin.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFk76AjXU4t
Kiri: “I’m… sorry.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBRooPh7pp
Izuku: “… I know.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS9pFPP1ZPd
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKI3qVg0FAJ
He laughed when Tatsumaki claimed there was a real ghost in the haunted house and for everyone to watch out.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVOgyEZ1rR
He smiled when Fubuki didn’t believe it and teased Tatsu again.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPshYLJqnif
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSkU32Pohx
It was almost nighttime when they got home.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwPknxTpBq
Tatsumaki: “I have to admit, today was fun.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTbk6YrBoH
Fubuki: “I’m glad you got us all together, Mom.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjfT5OB9tq
Inko: “You’re welcome. Are you going to stay?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQCmuW4gtg3
Fubuki: “Sure.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJUvgLdDkH
Tatsumaki: “I don’t think I can make it home anyway.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPjaPRRkpD
Inko: “Great! Kiri, you can sleep with me so Fubuki can have her room back.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlm77OCb9Mr
Kiri: “…Nh.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw2z6htdCdH
And so it was, the family cleaned themselves and got ready for bed. But before Tatsumaki fell into her bed, Izuku approached her.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGPUAgYayZ
Izuku: “Tatsu, before you go to bed, I have a question.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUGj1z28Yp
Tatsumaki: “Sure, what is it?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMEcfXIjBK
The brother led her to the empty living room and sat down. Tatsu, sensing a serious conversation, sat down next to him and waited.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡav31gcnXCp
Izuku: “Tatsu, how does it feel to be so powerful? Are you ever… scared of it?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUgAOnj7bAQ
Tatsumaki: “Izu, why are you asking me this? What’s happening?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1caGUGHkAV
Izuku: “Please, just answer me.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxcTvCMCxDW
She sighs before answering.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yClf4XSYV
Tatsumaki: “Well, to answer the first question, pretty great. It gives me nearly unlimited freedom and the ability to protect my family. Doesn’t hurt that our quirks are convenient and fun to use.”

She doesn’t let her brother see the burden such power gives you or the heartbreak that comes when you fail despite it.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfLuXhgCpE
All Izuku sees is his amazing and powerful big sister.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡabrTlrQKHi
Tatsumaki: “As for the second question…”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqJRWKkGF0
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3VCIUpoYeo
She wonders if there is something more to her brother’s quirk.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡujr0YnLkEV
So with that in mind, she changes her answer and lets some vulnerability show.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgVxu8rdHt
Tatsumaki: “There were only two times when I was ever scared of my power or even resentful of it.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYhmtH1w3lu
Izuku: “R-Really? Why?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSVZVbLuJa
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTpRqRbe6a
Izuku: “W-What did you do?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMyMUmvnBr
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzKPqenjC3I
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfsIysUrnOP
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?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmrFxSvQV5L
Izuku: “Wow… I didn’t expect this from you.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf0AwCfjgM2
Tatsumaki: “Hey! I have my big sister moments from time to time.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcN8WJa3dy
Izuku: “Hahaha, I know. Thanks, Tatsu. I won’t disappoint you; I’ll… master my quirk.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡawa0yliDhh
Tatsumaki: “I expect nothing less. Now.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6WpUkgLUa
She gets up and stretches.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAJbqO5whe
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgfmwm23Vr
Izuku: “Right, good night, Tastu.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZS1TuyyF5A
Tatsumaki: “Sweet dreams, Izu.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBE0X5s9NX
Sweet dreams… huh?
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYngQHO9m6M
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6i5biGCKaZ
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJOlObsQdHN
Once again, she failed to be there for him. She could feel his negative feelings, and it was terrible. Confused, painful, and alone.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEQoAFfdgz4
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69wRXn3MDc
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6sJgA4YPei
Panicking a bit, she called out telepathically.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWX4eQpZBB
Kiri: “Izuku? Where are you?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0a79hHDTCV
After a moment, she got a response.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECBofiBijd
Izuku: “Roof.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWf8rISlKq
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡluoaXzLX5m
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡceLlSFyFj8
Kiri: “Izu.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsxQzxHuKp
Izuku: “Couldn’t sleep either?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsifqzAxoOv
Kiri: “Nh.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPAGjuoiWn1
Izuku: “…I’m sorry if I… scare you. I’ll get better at using my quirk; I have to.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡihB1l5ULPt
Kiri: “You don’t scare me.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXy76NDnlxB
Izuku: “Then why do you shiver when we’re together?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwXljtBADL
Should she tell him? He doesn’t know how his… outburst affected her. Would telling him just make things worse?
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oKZK7Fnb9
Izuku: “You don’t have to say anything; I know.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9nTRV4qMv
Kiri: “Know… what?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEitNwQQw0Q
Izuku: “How what I did affected you.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsCW1eZDMv
Her eyes widen.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0IvSAB2X6u
Kiri: “How?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAfGbG0NL6R
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVm3Mo2045
Kiri: “… Nh.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrThGWiO0ls
It happened not that long after the UA attack, a sudden jump in power. She felt… more complete somehow.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJ710QmqkH
Izuku: “That’s why… I understand why you don’t want to touch me. I’m… sorry, Kiri, for what I did.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYDEkyJOh1y
Kiri: “Don’t apologize; you were just trying to save me.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3VWPvNSh3
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3JlJo3Kvd
His hands tighten around the railings enough to dent it a bit.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9u2XERK61O
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPTBOOvMo1n
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡor3OEYPgvR
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWgN7FG15u
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡminlQyerYc
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.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡla0vDI3Dbk
Kiri shakes her head.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhaJbxKKvFP
Kiri: “I want to stay. Izu, I… ”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5zs1TrrKaP
That familiar feeling returns, strong enough to smother the itchiness. This time, she follows through.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuFTC5o5QU
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQmSTwPyrV
Izuku: “K-Kiri?”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWH6eEmlGNv
Kiri: “You’re not alone; we’ll both improve and become heroes together. I won’t leave your side again, Izu.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9qVq5rI2vl
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8U6NFtlnOZ
Kiri: “Come.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEIct0D0KJ
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJHZrcqKwN
But she doesn’t; she hugs his chest and buries her face in his neck.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5C2lJuwyy
The feeling is horrible.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWg9QBiLnnw
Like several insects crawling and biting her skin. Her body is shaking like a leaf in a hurricane.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPeWstwjaR
Izuku: “Kiri, stop. Go back to Mom’s room.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkqh5xXkkmb
Kiri: “N-No.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj1ffQJxmca
She won’t back down from this. She hangs on for dear life as the sensation gets worse.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFYbXalgmT
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4N4hQgYeIH
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6SHZqABOSO
Kiri: “I-It will be okay. It will be okay.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMx72KQkmP
Izuku: “Kiri…”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeWs6VZvUMC
And like a storm, eventually, it passes. As if she passed some threshold or test, the sensation stopped.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAo4Zu4XKlC
The insects disappear, and the feeling is replaced with the warmth they both missed. Kiri stops shaking and settles comfortably into Izuku.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Gdrv95QiE
He senses this and sighs with relief.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIwbWX96fC
Kiri: “See? I told you, I won’t leave your side again.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNjCCrAV0v
Izuku closes his eyes and smiles. He really has amazing sisters. He embraces her tightly, conveying all the gratitude he could.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYk5UyUxjz
Izuku: “Kiri, thank you.”
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNiqYaxWTn
She smiles as the two finally get some restful sleep.

Fanfic Adapted: Tatsumaki: Tornado of Trouble by Whackybiscuit [2022]
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFumM0w4wUM
(WARNING: it’s 18+. This is where Arashi comes from. Their history is similar to Chapter 1. But their current relationship is more original.)
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXJeKBKetv
A/N: Damn, this was way bigger than I thought. It was fun though, so I hope you enjoyed it.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwxvTA3uSr
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhARiRLEVeG
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6voL0NYOI
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKC0mJnEdED
If she is not able to get One For All, I will lose darn near all interest in this ship.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbI4cvBCsFR
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDMhfDVbyn
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9bJRhYLTkh
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGL04tf7Dj
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHc17xozlev
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZN1PVG47JW
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.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv80WKGBCap
For example, Tomura can kill him and he has no resistance to mental attacks.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvCKcl81ygX
For those that don’t want Saitama in this story at all, comment now or forever hold your peace.
17Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6suDB4dNyT
Well, that’s all I want to talk about. Till next time.
