Ejiro was super excited to see his dad again because even though he wasn't in his life all the time he based his manly catchphrase off the guy he had to be great!
… right? so why does his mom flinch when he comes up behind her he may be the ‘himbo’ of class 1a but he knows when somethings wrong
So he talks to the guy honestly worst mistake of his life
he shoulda just called the cops
but no here he is with his binder off and this guy whispering in his ear about how pretty he is
He forces himself not to react as sharp teeth graze over his neck and hands dig into his chest
He thinks the guy must have gotten tired because that's the last he remembers before waking up the next day in his bed having bitten through his lip in his sleep and bruises all over his neck and chest he quickly showers with the lights off before putting his hair up the way he usually does and wrapping a bandana around his neck to hide the bruises
He is eating breakfast as quickly as his sour stomach will allow before school when thick fingers yank his head to the side by his hair
He just freezes again
He feels dirty and ashamed
He comes back into himself on the bus pulling out his phone to check the damage…
Yikes heill need to get something to cover it up but for now the bandana will do
As for his hair he figures it not the worst it's ever been and put his phone away as his hands start shaking as he pulls up to his stop he smooths his hands over his uniform he smiles to himself bitterly at least that looks the same
In the classroom he sees his first ever friend Mina Ashido the alien goddess of their generation
“Hey Mimi-”
“Ah you only use that when you want something ” she accuses
“Just makeup” he manages to force out before she can bring up something he would rather his new friends not know about
“Ohmigod finally!” she cheers
passing him the skin chart she keeps in her bag for some reason tapping the third square from the left with one long neon green fingernail
“Ask momo for this”
He shoots her a thumbs up and gos before she can start asking questions
Momo raises an eyebrow at his request but makes the foundation without comment
He applies it in the bathroom right before class starts sliding in just as the bell rang
Iida yelled at him for being late even though mr Aizawa isn't here
He stared at the door the back of his neck starting to prickle as he watched it slide open his classmates lecture droning on in the background
His breathing sped up as he watched a hand slowly reach its way into the room hardening unknowingly crawled up his arms
He blinked and mr aizawa was standing behind the podium the board was covered in writing he squinted at it uselessly it could have been in russian for all he could understand
A low buzzing started in his ears
His heart rate climbed higher
Hardening crawled over his face
His breathing picked up
He didn't realize that the lesson had stopped until he felt a hand on his shoulder a thumb brushing against the still scabbing bite mark on the side of is neck
His mind goes blank hardening covering his body he flipped the owner of that hand over his shoulder his hand snapping up to slash across the face of someone who got too close only to find his skin soft and malleable again he could feel thick fingers crawling up his body could smell sweat and hear heavy breathing he curled into himself scrambling back until he felt a wall against his back
Suddenly a soft pink hand with long bright green nails forced itself between his and the smell of lilacs fills his nose
Mina
He blinked and looked into her dark eyes
A sigh of relief forcing itself out of her mouth as she caught his eye she smiled a bit sadly
“Do you think mabie the others can come back in”
His voice cracked violently as he tried to answer
She sucked in a sharp breath
“You can just nod or shake your head”
He brushed the tears off his face and tried again
“Why did they leave”
“Dude you had a breakdown” she shrieked
“Oh”
“Wanna tell me what it was about?”
He flinched a bit but pulled off his bandana to wipe at the greasy makeup covering his neck
It was her turn to flinch as she tapped something out on her phone
Before he could ask what she was doing the door creaked open to show mr Aizawa in all his panicked/slightly annoyed glory
He flinched as the mans red eyes passed over him pausing on his throat
“Any injuries i need to be aware of”he said gruffly
Kirishima quickly took stock patting along his chest poking at his bruises and wincing as he felt a bruise forming over his knuckles
“Nope” he rasped out quickly with a smile
“Great now explain”
His heart dropped into his chest at those words
“Um some stuff happened at home and i freaked out a bit”
“You nearly threw Midoriya through the floor and you were about to scratch Jiros face open when i canceled your quirk”
“I promise sir i'll apologise-”
“I just want the truth kirishima as to why you reacted like that to someone touching your shoulder”
“My neck”
“What?”
“He touched my neck”
Aizawa raised an eyebrow
The word came out before he could stop them
“My dad did something to me an i don't want to say it but you can guess by the type of bruises i have an it hurts an i don't want to go back there please don't make me go back im sorry-”
He was cut off by Mina launching herself into a hug
“Eji i promise you it'll be okay i'll figure out somewhere you can stay an you never have to go back there”
“Ahido you can't make those promises you are a child still and you need to be focusing on yourself, i will be making sure of these things”
“Really?” he and mina courused
“Of course me and my husband can even take you in if that's what you want”
“Please” he sobbed
“Of course kid” his new dad mumbled hiding his small smile in his scarf

Chapter Text

Once Kirishima had apologised and it had nearly been forgotten by the class in the stresses of everyday life there was another issue more small scale and hard to notice then kirishima's but Hagakure was concerning Shota mabie it was just her personality but she needed to be in control all of the time and she would mother her classmates fairly aggressively making sure they ate and slept enough not concerning on its own but when combined with the nearly hourly calls to her younger sister where she would often end up crying
to put it short shouta was concerned
So he did what he thought was best and asked his son to keep an eye on her it was a strange conversation to say the least but eventually Ejiro promised to check on her subtly

His son had no concept of subtlety
He could practically hear the kid staring at the invisible girl but by the time his class came back from lunch they were chatting like the best of friends
Over the next several weeks he got regular updates from his son by the end of the month he found the issue
“Hey uh dad” his son asked one night while he was grading after dinner
“What's up kid?”
“Uh Tourou says it's fine but her parents haven't made her food in a while”
“Can you please elaborate” he questioned
“Um yeah her parents haven't cooked for her in a really long time like since she was a really little kid and they aren't taking care of her at all an im really worried about her” he devolved into tears near the end
Shouta opened his arms wordlessly letting his son fall into the hug he was concerned again but for more of a reason now
He asked to talk to her after class and she shrunk in on herself as her friends ooooooed
He let it be a study period he had a feeling this was going to be a draining conversation and he wanted to nap
Hagakure was really nervous as evidenced by her apparent squirming as they sat in silence
“Mr aizawa i'm sorry for whatever i did but i don't know what it was”
“You aren't in trouble kid”
She seemed shocked
“But we do need to talk about your home life”
Her shoulders slumped
“Ejiro told you”
“He did”
“Sir i swear everything is fine i can take care of myself and yaku i just need a bit more time and i can teach her to cook and it'll all be fine”
He cut of the spiral as quickly as he could
“Hagakure i need you to be honest with me are you okay at home ”
“They don't hurt me”
“They don't have to”
Within a week shouta had two more kids running around
He's just glad mic always wanted a daughter because he gets the feeling this class wouldnt be easy

Tourou quite liked her new life she had a brother now and two new dads and they both like her and people pay attention to her all the time not just when they want something it's amazing and Yaku loves it too everybody seems to be bonding well enough it was kinda weird getting used to calling her teachers dad but she had it figured out plus she only had to cook when she wanted too and they often did family activities
Today they were going to a park and getting ice cream
She hummed as she looked through her skirts trying to decide which one would match her hijab more she was going with a light orange almost peachy one today so she settled on a fawn colored skirt and a pastel yellow sweater making sure she picked up her gloves on the way out of her room waving at Yamada as she knocks on her brothers door
“Eji were leaving in 15 minutes”
“Kay” he called back she rolled her eyes
“Are you dressed? Did you take your meds?”
“I will be and yes”
She scoffed knocking on Yakus door
“Were leaving in ten minutes”
“I'm ready” the younger girl chirped pulling open the door
“Honey you haven't done your hair yet”
In response the sparkly kid just spun around Tourou just sighed again smiling as she braided her little sisters hair into two pigtails and brushed over the top of her head to signal that she was done
“Thanks Tourou it looks great”
She smiled and continued down the hall to get breakfast her sisters hand in hers
“Foods done come get it” Aizawa scoffed
“Thanks dad” she called stacking pancakes onto her plate ignoring the increasingly loud thumping from the hallway
“Oh that gets you out of bed” she exclaimed as Eijiro skidded into the room Yamada hot on his heels
“I have no idea what you are talking about ”
As they all sat down gentle chatter broke out over the room
She smiled as she set to eating
On the way to the park they managed to walk past dads favorite coffee shop and after barely a minute of asking they were inside ordering on thing for each of them
They walked as they ate she was munching on her sugar donut when she thought she saw Tsu out of the corner of her eye but when she turned her head nothing was there
When they got to the park they sat down on the blanket pops had brought in his seemingly never ending purse
As she sat there with her brother beside her watching her sister chase the geese and her dads bicker over frisbee
She thought
This is happiness

He probably wouldn't mind right? Just call him or text him or something? Hitoshi sat there on the freezing concrete his mind rushing to come up with a solution but he couldn't think of anything other than to call aizawa he knows logicly the pro wouldn't mind and it was an open secret that he had adopted some of his students the rumor mill couldn't seem to agree on who but nonetheless something in the back of his mind told him that he would only be a bother and besides how would he open that conversation ‘hey i'm muzzled and freezing to death help’ it doesn't even work before he could finish that train of thought he heard a thump on the nearest rooftop and for a brief moment he lets himself hope and for once it goes well for him he sees mr aizawa or eraserhead right now he guesses he smiles slightly at the sight of the oblivious hero only to let out a quiet yelp of pain as it pushes his injuries up against the cold metal of the muzzle the hero whips around nearly losing his footing on the large mountain of garbage that hitoshi is hiding behind for warmth
He makes a noise of confusion as eraserhead starts clicking his tongue and digging around watching the man's head shoot up and lock on his location as he does
“Hey whoevers there,you need help? ”
Hitoshi makes as much of an agreeing noise as he can in his current predicament standing on shaky legs to look at the hero he hears a sharp intake of breath as he does
“Oh kid” the man's voice is much softer than it was a second ago
“Let's get you to a hospital”
He shook his head violently wincing as it pulled at his face
“Okay no hospitals”
They walked in uncomfortable silence for a bit until they reached a fence at the base of a big hill almost a mountain where mr aizawa pulled out a key card scanning it along the gate and typing in a password
He marched along numbly following his mentor into a large house slipping off his shoes and padding into the kitchen behind the tired man
“Okay kid can you take the hoodie off”
He pulled the hood away from his face and tilted his head down showing off the strap of the muzzle a thick leathery material that he knew from experience was conductive he was pulled from his thoughts as mr aizawa gasped again
“shinso?”
He nodded slightly
Before he could blink a blond man with a little girl who seemed to be made entirely of glitter on his back walked into the room
“Zashi we gotta get this off him”
The man nodded grimmly
“Hey little listener can you go get the first aid kit from under the sink”
The girl nodded and darted away as he realized
‘M-i-c’? he signed questioningly glad at least his hands were free this time
“You got it little listener”
He smiled before wincing as the muzzle cut into his face again a drop of blood rolling out of the bottom and dripping down his neck in a steady stream
Mic winced
“Try not to move listener i know they suck but its not for much longer”
He tried to display his thanks though what was visible of his eyes
“No problem kid” his mentor strolled back into the room with a toolbox under his arm
The little girl smiled at him brightly as she placed a white box onto the table
“Thank you Yaku now go to bed”
Yaku nodded once and darted away again
“Kid this might hurt but it'll be over soon”
‘R-e-a-d-y’ he signed determandly bowing his head forward again
Mr aizawa began sawing at the muzzle and he was right it did hurt
A lot
He couldn't help the whimper of pain or the tears rolling down his face to join the blood
Then Mic began humming it was soothing and helped him focus on something other than the ugly contraption being sawed off of him
And it worked because sooner then he realized it was off mr aizawa snapping a quick picture of the gash along his nose and chin as well as the blisters next to his ears before wetting a washcloth with rubbing alcohol and setting to work
After bandaging him up with cat bandaids might he add mr aizawa asked
“Are there any other wounds I should know about ”
And maybe it was because he trusted the hero and maybe it was how tired he was but he pulled off his hoodie
Showing off the gashes along his chest the cigarette burns on his ribs and the huge bruise on his stomach
Mic hissed in sympathy and clenched his fists
“Okay Hitoshi it'll be fine we just need to get Chiyo in then we can get everything taken care of”
He nodded again and was pulled into the white fog of dissociation
When he came back he was lying on a surprisingly comfortable bed feeling safe and well rested for once
“Hey kid” mr aizawa called as he padded into the kitchen
“Three questions do you like oatmeal do you want tea and do you want to be adopted” mic rattled out his cherry persona in full swing
He nodded in response to all three and his mouth twisted into a smile as he sat at the table with his new family

Mei mcfrickin loves this school they let her build whatever she wants and they don't yell at her for bad pain days so of course her world comes crumbling down around her when her ‘parents’ (she had honestly stopped referring to those ableist idiots as parents years ago) announce that there pulling her out of u.a
“A delicate little doll like you should not be around all those chemicals and machines”
“Not to mention the hero boys are such brutes”
She hated the situation so she did what she did best built a baby to fix it and when that didn't work she talked to nedzu insane genius to insane genius and they reached an arrangement non hero students couldn't be pulled out by parents it took a bit of blackmailing the commission but they got it done so she stupidly believed that her dreams were safe then came a long weekend she switched out her leg for the more ‘normal’ looking one that wouldn't get her yelled at it felt unnerving to walk so quietly missing the quiet squeak and click of her steampunk themed leg as she reached the door her mother honked
“Hey mum”
“Hi honey i'm so glad you decided to stop pretending to be something you're not”
She felt cold crawling up the back of her neck
“What do you mean?”
“You're not gonna be a hero sweetie so i'm glad you stopped pretending”
“I was never gonna be a hero”
“Oh you know what i mean but i'm glad you decided to quit”
“Im staying at u.a mum me and nedzu talked about it”
The car was silent for a long moment before her mother spoke
“Well i suppose i'll have to email him myself”
It was a tense ride home sitting on her hands to stop from flapping ignoring how the bones ground together under the pressure
When they got home she was sat in the living room and given a bowl of grapes
“I can get my own food”
“Nonsense honey you can barely walk”
She just sighed running her hands along the scar above her knee feeling the damaged tissue slowly change into the silicone preferred by her parents she missed her metal and fiberglass leg with its gears and hydraulics she started picking at her shoulders to pass the time as her mother typed up what was sure to be a very angry email
She knew she would get yelled at if she got up she she resigned herself to a very boring evening of listening to her mother type angrily until her father got home with food she pulled out her phone to text her friends
Dekusquad group chat

Purple cat: i will be at your house in 20 minutes get your stuff

She closed her phone and glanced at her mother
Who seemed to have gotten a glass of wine in the time she had been talking and was still typing but more focused now
She managed to sneak up the stairs before her mother could check on her
Pushing the half finished inventions into a bag grabbing her toothbrush and stuff and piling her clothes into another bag
She glanced at her watch only five minutes left
She pulled up her mattress grabbing her small supply of snacks her toolbox and her wallet with her credit card her school id and some cash from commissions
There was a knock at the door downstairs she heard her mom heave herself out of her chair as she raced down the stairs pressing the button she put in to turn it into a slide and slamming the stopper button as she reached the bottom
Skidding to a stop at the door her leg creaking and sparking ignoring her mothers protests as she pushed past her out the door and intupting the argument
“Hia mr aizawa”
“Hello Mei”
“Why would you listen to her don't you know she's special” her mother shrieked the last word hissing out like a curse
“I am aware of her adhd if that's what you are referring to and i am also aware that the leg you are forcing her to wear is aggravating her”
“She doesn't know what shes talking about-”
“Maam this was going to be a home visit and a talk but frankly judging by your behaviour its becoming an adoption case now lets go Mei”
Mei stuck out her tongue at the woman who had raised her passing a bag to her new dad just in time for him to turn his head and spit
“And by the way missus hatsume my husband has adhd”
He let her choose where she wanted to sit in the car and picked up her better leg from the school Powerloader smiling at her from under his mask as she does

Hizashi couldn't wait he was finally taking all his kids shopping because
1.Eijiro needed a new wardrobe
2.Torou needed some new shoes and room decorations
3.Yaku needed toys a hairbrush and stuff for her room
4.Mei needed some new decorations clothes and tinkering supplies
5. Hitoshi needed a new...everything
And as much as shouta hated shopping he finally caved after seeing Mei wearing the same stained black tank top and cargo pants for the fourth day in a row taking apart their toaster with a nail file then it just snowballed into everyone going
At last the big day come it was a warm saturday morning he had made a traditional breakfast everyone ate and got dressed Ejiro Shouta and Mei in their standard outfits everyone else nicely
Especially Torou in a light blue hijab a pale pink sweater and a purple skirt with her standard gold jewellery
He had to get some fashion tips from her
They decided to walk to the store because it was a very nice day fluffy clouds floating over the sky with his youngest daughter on his back and his husband shuffling the rest of the kids along the sidewalk it honestly seemed like a perfect day almost he thought he saw someone he knew out of the corner of his eye but when he turned his head to look noone was there he shook his head clearing his thoughts as they all reached the mall
Putting Yaku down and grabbing her hand to stop her from running off
First they headed to a clothing store letting go of his daughter's hand as they entered watching her immediately scramble to the children's section glancing over at his husband to see him hunched over on the bench
He wandered over to sit beside him bumping his shoulder briefly and settled down to watch
Eijiro was looking at the workout clothes again while Torou tried to pull him away from them Yaku was bouncing around the headbands collecting as many as she could carry, Hitoshi was pawing through the racks of hoodies and Mei...
Mei was standing straight in the middle of the store flapping her hands anxiously and chewing at her lower lip
Shouta cursed quietly as he noticed
“My turn” Hizashi blurted out before Shouta could move scrambling across the store to crouch in front of his daughter
“Whats up whats wrong”
“Nothing everythings fine” her voice was too shrill and she was still flapping uncomfortably
He raised his eyebrows as she continued
“It's just everything is super expensive and it all feels wrong”she was near tears as she explained
“Wrong how”
“its...itchy”
“Do you wanna go?”
“Please”
They found a thrift shop with quiet lighting and sat until they both started getting uncomfortable with being still
“Hey listener, do you wanna look around?”
“Here?”
The shop was dusty and smelled like smoke but it was all worth it to see the smile on her face
After she got some more clothes and things for her room in all the right textures and colors as well as a vintage tool kit he suggested something else
“It's a surprise” he explained as they hurried over to the small store
“stimm-tastic?” she sounded out when they reached the entrance
“Yep its A-MAY-ZING its a bunch of fidgets and stuff” he explained waving his hands to emphasise his point
She hurried in without another word making a typing motin with her hands as she searched grabbing a few squishies a popit a few spin rings and then she found it the motherload of chew necklaces she quickly dumped everything into the basket he was holding to dig through barley stopping to sanitize her hands she ended up getting several there was a gold microphone a bronze gear a black cat and so many more including a frog a star a bunny a car a cat a snowflake and a knife
As they left the store both with a new chew in their mouths Mei the gear and him another gold microphone
Meeting up with Shouta and the other kids in time to see all their new cloths thankfully more then workout gear for Eijiro
They stopped for lunch in the food court before working on bedroom supplies
They all managed to get their favorites
He made sure to keep an eye on Mei knowing that a meltdown like that could be tiring but she seemed relatively okay chattering loudly to Hitoshi about his modulator mask and receiving the occasional monotone response
After lunch they went to the bedding store first he managed to snag a few weighted blankets before Mei could ask what they were intending to surprise her for her birthday
Hitoshi like Shouta just chose the cheapest black sheets he could find
Ejiro even though he didn't need new sheets chose crimson riot merch like they all new he would
Yaku and Torou went a similar direction with soft and comfortable blankets but they went differently color wise sparkly and pastels respectively
And of course Mei went with soft blankets in metallic colors along with black pink and army green
And his dear husband Shouta bought for more of those ugly yellow sleeping bags
Shota made them go get toiletries next
everyone bought a toothbrush in their prefered colors along with the rest of their needed supplies everyone got something but the enthusiasm was lacking luckily he managed to bolster everyone for one last hurrah
The toy shop
At first Hitoshi tried to pretend he was too cool for toys but by the end he had a basket full of cat stuffies and illegal eraserhead merch Mei mostly bought train sets and science kits with the occasional pickpocketed watch those Shouta make sure to return with a sincere apology he also managed to stop her from ‘fixing’ the cash register Torou bought some puzzles and a paint set and Yaku tried to buy the entire stuffed animal section they managed to talk her down to ten and a play kitchen set
The kids fell asleep on the bus home it was so cute and he managed to get a few pictures when they got home and got everyone in bed he collapsed onto the pillow he loved shopping but too much is too much they all fell asleep with a smile on their faces
He loved his family

Momo is just tired and dizzy she knows she should be paying attention to Mr Aizawa's borderline lecture about her new meal plan but it's not her fault it's not her fault her mother lied about having a pediatrician and Momo herself sign off on it the lecture finished quickly enough ending with “-are you sure kid?”
She nodded ignoring the headrush that came with it and braced her hand on the back of the seat to stand ignoring her vision tunneling around her
She could handle it and besides her mother said this would fix her figure which probably couldn't hurt
She sighed as she got to the cafeteria
Pulling her cardigan tighter around her as she lined up for Lunchrush to give her the meal if it could even be called that
A handful of blueberries the end of a baguette three pieces of boiled broccoli and about a tablespoon of yogurt
her friends were staring at her lunch she shook her head slowly ignoring the rush of dizziness that followed she ate her meager meal as quickly as she could with her shaking hands her friends look confusedly between themselves as they ate their fully loaded sandwiches talking quietly amongst themselves they all seemed confused but she couldn't hear them over the ringing in her ears she blinked and she was seated in her desk with a stack of cue cards in her hands and her vice rep waving up to the front of the class she nodded the static increased getting louder and her vision tunneling the floor swaying underneath her Iida looked at her his mouth moved she knew something was going to happen but she wasn't sure what
her train of thought was cut off by her eyes rolling back in her head and her body going limp to slam down onto the floor
Momo woke up with a groan
Her head throbbed and she could feel several new bruises blooming
She cracked her eyes open to see recovery girl standing over her bed on a stepstool
“Welcome back to the land of the living” the old woman sassed
She bit back the urge to groan again
“How long was I out”
“About an hour” Mr Aizawa grumbled from his spot in the corner of the room this time she did groan flopping back onto the thin pillow and pulling a second one from her stomach to cover her face what she wasn't expecting was the loud panicking that followed from the teacher
“Oh sorry is there a rule about quirk use in the infirmary”
“No problem child” and that was a new nickname for her “you just passed out from low blood sugar and I don't want it to happen again”
“It's worse than that Shouta” the doctor came back into the room
They stepped into the next room leaving her with firm orders not to get up
So she just sat there stewing in her anxiety
Were they going to kick her out of U.A?
Was she going to die?
Were they going to call her parents?
Before she could spiral any further they came back into the room Recovery girl dragging an x-ray board behind her and her teacher tugging at his scarf the way he did when he was annoyed she flinched instinctually and he schooled his body language into something unrecognizable
She picked at her boney shoulders as recovery girl set up the board showing an image of a stomach but there was something wrong with it before she could get a closer look mr aizawa launched into another one of his famous lectures
“Why would you do this to yourself kid”
Her hands balled into fists
“Don't you know what this could do to your career”
Her breathing sped up
“You should have talked to someone ”
She heard her mothers voice in her head ‘control yourself Momo’
“I don't know if I'm comfortable teaching someone who would put themselves over the safety of others”
She tugged at her ponytail sharply the illusion of control slipping faster with every passing second
“You damaged yourself so badly you won't be able to digest properly for the rest of your life do you understand that”
She snapped
“How dare you lecture me about this”
She cracked her knuckles
“You don't know anything about me, you think I chose to starve myself? No! She put me on this stupid fucking diet”
He froze paling with every word she said
The fight drained out of her but she kept talking
“She said if I were ever to be worth a husband of good status I had to be graceful”
“..kid”
She sighed
“There it is” her voice sounded weak even to her own ears how could she be a hero when she couldn't even stand up to her own mother her thoughts were interrupted by Mr Aizawas rough voice
“As soon as you're out of here were getting your stuff Im enacting my emergency adoption license”
She dissolved into tears for the first time being comforted by a father who cares about her it was quite nice in her opinion

Chapter Text

Momo: I’m the sexiest bitch in this therapy waiting room.

Mei: I have yet to encounter a problem where a sword didn't factor into the solution at least in some way.

Mei:Forgive me Father, for I have sinny-sin-sinned.

Ejiro: Can I offer you a nice stick in this trying time?

Ejiro:I dunno if I'm ready to process the ramifications of this bullshit.

Ejiro:I'm a nice person, but I'm about to start throwing rocks at people.

Ejiro:Life keeps fucking me and I can't remember the safeword.

Ejiro:looking at his watch: It has been 2 hours and sixteen minutes since I’ve been insulted, It’s been about 5 seconds since I’ve been assaulted, but let’s not talk about that.

Torrou at the slightest provocation: I came into this earth screaming and covered in someone else's blood and I'm not afraid to leave the same way.

Torrou: If I see a bug, I simply leave the room elegantly and require someone else do something about it and If no one fulfills my wish, I simply never go back in there.

Aizawa:I wish I had acid. Thank you, Jesus. Amen.

Aizawa:My expectations are low, but they can always go lower.

Mic:@ yaku I don’t think the therapist is supposed to say ‘wow’ that many times during their first session with a client, but here we are.

Mic:I have met some of the most insufferable people. But they also met me.

Mic:Forgive me Father, for I have sinny-sin-sinned.

Mic:Don't ask me what I'm talking about. I don't know, okay? I'm just the vessel. The message has been given. I've moved on.

Hitoshi: On a random band name generator: Oooo! They Might Be Depressed Horses! That about sums up my siblings

Hitoshi: Like they say, "If you can't beat them, curl up in a ball and protect your organs."

Yaku: I scare people a lot because I walk very softly and they don't hear me enter rooms. So when they turn around, I'm just kind of there and their fear fuels me.

Yaku:My favorite outdoor activity is going back inside.

Yaku: Do you ever think? Because I do not.

All the kids
Sometimes, I don’t realize an event was traumatic until I tell it as a funny story and notice everyone is staring at me weird.

Eijirou: What? I'm not aggressive!
Aizawa : Last Tuesday, you whacked me with a pair of crocs and stole my chocolate chips?
Eijirou: Survival of the fittest, bitch.

Mei, very tired: Can I sleep in your bed?
Eijirou: *half asleep* Mei, this is a queen-sized bed. That means it’s for *gestures vaguely to themself* the Queen.

Mei: Are you busy?
Aizawa : Yes.
Mei: Cool, listen to this.

Aizawa : Why are there little handprints all over the walls?
Mei, whispering: Why are there little handprints all over the walls?
Yaku, whispering: Because I have little hands.
Mei: Because she has little hands.

Aizawa : I give up. I am so tired.
Mei : Get the emergency supply!
Hitoshi : *carries Mic and places them in front of Mei*
Mic : *smiles*
Aizawa : AND I AM BACK BABY, LET’S GOOO

Tourou: I hate to tell you this, but one of you was adopted.
Ejirou & Hitoshi :
Eijirou: Was it Hitoshi ?

Hitoshi : But seriously, what is the real plan here that has to do with not fucking around?
Mei : There is no plan that does not involve fucking around. But we will make sure all of our fucking around will be applied in a constructive direction.

Ejirou: I WOULD DESTROY THE WORLD FOR YOU!
Mic : Okay, can you do the dishes?
Eijirou: No!
Aizawa : You are an absolute fucking dork.
Mic, singing: Yeah, but I'm your dork!
Aizawa : *sighs* Yeah, you're my dork.

Yaku : I drink to forget but I always remember.
Tourou: You're drinking orange juice.

Mic : How would you like your coffee?
Tourou: As dark and as bitter as my soul.
Mic , shouting to someone behind the counter: I need one vanilla latte with extra cream and sugar!

Tourou: What, in the name of sanity, have you got on your head?
Mic : It's a fez, I wear a fez now. Fezzes are cool.
Eijirou: *snatches the fez, throws it in the air*
Mei: *shoots it*

Yaku : Man, they look like a real handful. How do you deal with them?
Mic , watching Tourou screaming, Momo trying to set a sleeping Eijirou on fire, and Mei choking on air: I don't know either.

Yaku : Hitosi won’t wake up, what do I do?
Aizawa : Did you try kicking him?
Yaku : Yes.
Aizawa : I’m out of ideas.

Momo: Where's Tourou, Mic , and Mei?
Yaku: They're playing hide and seek.
Momo: Where?
Yaku: I don't think you get how this game works.

Aizawa , spraying a melted cutting board with a tiny water gun: We gotta cool this bitch down. Cool it down.
Momo: I actually just put the cutting board in the oven...
Mei, visibly confused: Okay, so they decided to put the cutting board in the oven?
Aizawa , spraying Momo: You FUCKING DUMBASS!
Momo: Dude, I forgot-
Aizawa : OH MY FUCKING GOD! We're trying to make Chicken Alfredo right now, and you fucking MELT the cutting board in the oven at 400 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT!?
Mic : *Watching in complete confusion while trying to process this whole situation.*

Mic : *walking around disappointed after visiting an aquarium*
Mei: Mic , what did you think a tiger shark was?

Eijirou: I’d like to live through a week that’s not a whole new verse of “We Didn’t Start the Fire.”

Mic : What do you call disobeying the law?
The kids and Aizawa: A hobby.
Mic : *crosses their arms*
The kids and Aizawa: That we do not engage in.

Mic : Underestimate me. That'll be fun.

Momo: You know, Hitoshi , when you generalize, you tell general... lies.
Hitoshi : ...
Hitoshi : Are you trying to teach me moral lessons through puns?

Mic : Hey Yaku , have you seen the photographer?
Yaku : Nope. Have you seen the meat tenderizer?
Mic , confused: What?
Yaku , grabbing the meat tenderizer out of the drawer: No reason, cute girl things!

Aizawa : I hate to tell you this, but one of you was adopted.
The kids:
Yaku : Only one...?

Mei, slamming pots and pans together to the rhythm of "Give it to me, I'm worth it": I didn't get no sleep cause a' y'all! Y'all never gonna sleep cause a' me!

Momo: Just took a personality test and got an A+.

Ejirou: Why do I always try to tell people we're cool? We are so very uncool.

Hitoshi : I am going to need you to swear-
Mei: Fuck.
Hitoshi :
Hitoshi : ...swear as in promise.

Momo: Do you think I’m ugly?
Mei : It’s not about looks, Momo. What’s valuable is on the inside...
Momo: Aizawa ...
Mei : For example, someone's heart.
Momo: Aw... Stop it-
Mei : It could be purchased for more than a million dollars, you know.
Momo: Seriously, stop.

*Everyone is playing a board game together*
Aizawa : I will put 'A' down to make 'A'.
Eijirou: I will add onto your 'A' to make 'AT'.
Mei: I will add onto your 'AT' to make 'RAT'.
momo : I will add onto your 'RAT' to make 'BIOSTRATIGRAPHIC'.
Mei: *flips the board*

Momo: Don’t stay up all night, Mei. Last time you got this sleep-deprived, you tried to eat your own shirt.

Hitoshi : So I can either do something dumb that could very well get me injured or I can listen to Momo and not do the thing,
Hitoshi : Well there’s a clear right answer here.
Hitoshi : *proceeds to throw five packs of mentos into a barrel full of diet coke*

Mei: When do you usually go to sleep?
Aizawa : Whenever I collapse is entirely up to the gods.
Mei: I like you

Momo: *double checking supplies in the boat* Compass. CB radio. Sunscreen.
Eijirou: Hot dog costumes!
Momo: I’m sorry, what?
Eijirou: You know, in case we get lost at sea, and one of us, probably Yaku , goes mad with hunger, we’ll put these on. Yaku hates hot dogs, so they probably won’t eat us.
Momo: Are you saying that Yaku would rather eat us than hot dogs?
Yaku : I do hate hot dogs.

Tourou: You shouldn't be using a straw.
Mei: I know, I know, it's bad for the environment and stuff.
Tourou: Yeah, but I mean... It's a weird way to eat spaghetti.

Chapter Text

Himiko is sick of this
Why don't they understand she needs to eat blood to survive
She's been eating small animals every day since her quirk manafasted and avoiding telling them but she's tired of starving
So she leaves and its great she finds a mostly abandoned mall with a few other homeless people who show her the ropes and she brings all her stuff in there
She doubts her parents are even looking for their monster daughter
She keeps texting her friends but didn't tell them anything knowing they would just get a supid hero involved she's just lucky she managed to get wifi in the mall likely due to one of the quirks of the older people there
Dekusquad group chat
Keroppi: any of yall wanna go to a movie i need food and warmth
Blood bunny: mood lets go
Thermostat: I can steal my sperm donor's credit card for the tickets but for food I'm afraid you're on your own.
Gravity girl: why do you text with perfect grammar
Purple cat: dad says he can give me money for food and such

Once everyone had agreed to go and when to meet up she realized she needed some money, she knew that her friends would pay for her this time but at some point she would need to buy food or other necessities
She sighed
It was time to go pick pocketing again
She hated this part
She looked to the pile of garbage at the back of her changing room turned bedroom pushing it aside to reveal the small vials of blood she had managed to snag the one she got the last time she went out spiraling it dramatically
she remembered it came from a little girl as she pinched her nose and chugged it down as quickly as she could gagging at the taste of the anticoagulant she was still shuddering by the time she had changed she looked over to the little pocket mirror she had nailed onto the wall flicking her long black hair over her shoulder to look at the bright purple eyes and freckles on her round face
She stepped out of her old clothes packing them into her hello kitty backpack brushing off her pink dress and re-buckling her shoes before she opened the door waving to the old woman who was cooking in the main plaza over a small campfire directing the smoke up to the broken ceiling hatch
She left out the service elevator sneaking into a group of daycare age kids to board the bus and snagging a few wallets from their parents
By the time she had reached the theater she was struggling to hold onto this form so she ducked into an alleyway and changed back tucking the dress into her backpack to sell later at the market then she met up with her friends sorting her new money as she went
It was a fun movie but she was more focused on the warmth and love surrounding her
It was warm at the mall but not like this and she was loved but not really she was more tolerated than anything else
It left her longing for a real family not like the one she had left with its slammed doors and whispered threats
She wanted siblings who she could fight with but would always have her back if need be she wanted parents who cared about her and listened to her
But she knew that was not meant for her doomed to be evil and crazy since the day her quirk pushed her fangs into her mouth and her out of her parents hearts and lives
She sighed as she split up with her friends outside the theater Iida zooming off as fast as he could and tsu hopping to the park but the rest of them got picked up she smiled at Hitohsi and Meis dad through the car window as he got in he waved back energetically as he sped away already singing to the old songs he had pulled up on his car radio
She sighed again as she walked into the shadows cat like eyes narrowing when she saw a tall man hunched over a box he had a nice looking watch on and a thick wallet sticking out of his pocket mostly cash by the looks of things
She walked on her toes over to the oblivious man but just as her fingertips brushed the wallet he grabbed her wrist spinning around to face her
Ignoring the way she scrabbled at his hand in an attempt to free herself he pushed the quirk canceling cuffs onto her going through the usual spiel
“You are being placed under arrest for stealing you have the right to remain silent ”
When suddenly
“How old are you?”
She answered before her mind could register the question
“16”
He groaned and started dragging her to the hero-van™
Ignoring her biting and scratching at him as he did
He threw her in the holding cell and started the van
After a short ride
They were at the base of a hill from what she could see out her tiny window he walked over to a huge gate and pressed a button muttering into a small microphone for a second before the gate opened and the man got back into the driver's seat and drove up the hill
When they got to a house hitoshi’s angry looking dad burst out the door
Shoving past her kidnapper he opened the door to her cell and backed away
She caushusley looked at him seeing no malaise in his tired brown eyes she steeled herself and stepped out the door
Immediately he asked
“Can i touch you i wanna check for injuries”
The other man spoke up
“She bites”
The tired man looked at her again
“Please don't bite me”
She nodded and asked
“What should i call you”
She recognised him as eraserhead but she still wasn't sure
He smiled slightly awkwardly
“Aizawa”
She smiled back shakily
“Im himiko toga”
She flinched hearing the other man gasp at the sight of her fangs
“Gods Sekijiro you really suck with kids ”
“Don't tell her my name” he hissed in response
She sighed putting her head down to let them argue her mind fogging over until she was snapped out of her thoughts by something warm forcing itself into her hands
She blinked Hitoshis dad stared back at her somehow bouncing his leg despite his crouched position
“Hey lil listener you back with me?”
She nodded taking a sip from her mug
Humming in surprise when it was warm blood without a trace of anticoagulant in it
“Ya like it?,Sekijiro lent you it”
She cleared her throat before speaking
“Thank you but I should be going now”
Aizawa walked in from what looked to be a kitchen
“I doubt that look no offence kid but you're clearly homeless”
She was going to argue but upon seeing their faces she knew
“Dangit hitoshi”
The blond man snorted
“Do you need a home kid? We can frame it as a rehabilitation thing and it wont go on your record?”
She hid her smile in her mug
And nodded shrieking as she got tackled by her new dad for her first family hug since she was four years old

Chapter Text

It was the middle of a meeting when Shotas phone rang with one of the only ringtones he actually answered to
His mother
He waved off nedzu before walking into the hallway to answer the phone
Hazashi chuckled they could hear the conversation from here a high pitched screech of
“-grandchildren and you didn't tell me I wanna meet the babies”
And Shouta’s lower arguments
“Ma they are not fully settled in yet and Himiko's adoption was just finalized last week”
That was the wrong thing to say
“I HAVE GRANDDAUGHTERS?” then a sigh and more muttering from both ends
Then Shouta walked back into the room
“She will be here next week”
“Perfect ill call my mothers”

After work they brought the kids into the living room
“How do you feel about grandparents” shouta began only to lean back from the noise as the kids reacted as kids do
With screaming
“Do we get a grandmother” himiko piped up after she was done screaming
“Ya get three”
Shouta clamped his hands over his ears again as hizashi spoke
Once the screaming died down again he explained
“My mother found out i had children and is coming to visit and my darling husband decided it was the perfect time to invite his mothers”
Hizashi smirked
“Heck yeah i did”

The week went by quickly between everybody's therapy sessions and cleaning the house friday arrived before anyone knew it
so they sat patiently in the living room everyone chatting and Mei tinkering and joining in the calm conversation whenever she felt like it
It was idyllic
The calm was quickly broken by a short woman with shining chainmail inplace of her hair opening the door and strolling in like she owned the place
“Taihen! Good to see you again”
“Ah Hizashi i still don't know how my gloomy son managed to marry a guy like you”
“Good to see you too Ma” the aforementioned gloomy man droned sarcastically
“Oh Shouta you know I love you” she patted his elbow comfortingly before whipping around
“Now where are my grandbabies”
The kids who until that moment had been sitting uncharacteristically quietly
Waved shyly Ejiro managing to make the first move
“Hello ma'am its very nice to meet you”
“Oh please honey call me grandma”
Finally Himiko spoke up
“Hia grandma im Himiko its superduper nice to meet you” she grinned showing off her fangs
Taihen smiled appreciatively at the kids
“Let's do names and pronouns mkay?”
“Ohh i know let's go in order of adoption” hizashi piped up
All of them swiveling their heads to look at Eijirou
“I'm Eijirou he/him please and thank you” he grinned showing off his shark like teeth and receiving a bronze smile from the old woman
“Im Torou and this is Yaku she/her for both of us” she smiled out fidgeting with her bracelets
“Ah my granddaughters so good to meet you”
“Um i'm Hitoshi he/they”
She smiled and waved trailing her hand absentmindedly over the bridge of her nose where Hitoshi had a scar the same as Yamada and her
“Im Mei an I really don't care what pronouns you use for me”
they grinned slightly manically up at her grandmother as the invention in her hands sparked sporadically
The old woman mached her energy with a sharp smile of her own
Momo thankfully broke the tension with her introduction
“My name is Momo and I use she her it's a pleasure to meet you”
Then she bowed and the old woman bowed back awkwardly
“Himiko which you know but all pronouns are cool beans”
Then the grinning and staring started again this time it was interrupted by two women knocking on the door one was tall and blonde with a cochlear implant and the other was short with dark skin and curly hair that had a reddish tint
Hizashi raced over to them and threw his arms around them signing and talking so quickly no one could understand him except apparently his mothers as they responded just as quickly Mei perking up and looking at them interestingly
she walked over to the small group leg clicking and hissing as it always did before stopping and signing with clumsy fingers
‘hi g-r-a-n-d-m-a-s im M-e-i’
As they cooed over their lovely granddaughter he looked over at Shouta
He loved their family

Chapter Text

Shouta sighed it was his least favorite time of year
Home visit time
He was required to go to the house of every parent of every student in his class and to have another teacher come to HIS home to check on HIS children and of course Hisashi loves it inviting everyone in for coffee when they show up but there were some funny moments here and there it was a bit awkward when Himiko offered hound dog a dog treat but it was overshadowed by the humor that was his offended face as he accepted
but still he didn't like it but he knew it had to be done

He was going by seat order and of course three houses in he found a problem
Asui had come out to all of them a few months ago as being nonbinary and imidietly swiched uniforms no one had anything bad to say and all in all it went well but standing here infront of the asui familys slammed door he wished he had asked more questions
suddenly he saw a small hand waving in one of the side windows it quickly gestured to the side of the house
Walking around he realized there were no windows on this side of the house and there were two small children standing there grim expressions on their tiny faces
He slowed to a stop slightly before them and crouched down to their level

“ why are you here” the one with pigtails croaked
“We are doing the home visits at the school”
“I didn't know Tsu was still going to school” she said again her younger brother nodding behind her
That was weird
“What do you mean”
“They left like a month ago ribbit” the young boy spoke up for the first time
His demeanor reminded him so much of his student that he got dizzy for a second
“What?”
“They told mom and dad about pronouns and then they had a fight and they left”
And so shouta forgot about the rest of the houses
to be fair he was following the protocol for the situation : drop everything until the kid was found
But then in class there they were sitting calmly in their desk smiling with some of his kids like nothing was wrong
He made a note to talk to them after class but they slipped out before he could ask them to stay the pattern continued like that every day for a week to the point where he would turn around to talk to them and they would be gone
So he enlisted his children to help
Getting Mei and Himiko to plan a sleepover for all their friends was all to easy once he told them his plan but they were unavalible that night
so he started dropping hints in lesions to spend time with friends with a focus on mental health he noticed a lot of eyes on him when he mentioned the different forms of abuse
something else to look into

When he finally realized he couldn't just catch the frog after class
He took to the streets bringing his patrol routes closer to u.a and wandering through public parks and places with fairly large bodies of water eventually even wandering into the forest near the back of the school and that's where he found them huddled up in a childs green sleeping bag with their ua uniform hanging to dry from a tree and a small fire burning near where they were sleeping he sighed his eyes falling on his sleeping kid they looked smaller then he remembered curled into themselves protectively even in sleep he sighed again and shook them awake while he waited for them to uncurl and stretch he looked around again it almost seemed homey with a jars hanging from the trees holding bugs or clean water

“Heyy kero mr aizawa”
“Hello asui” he catalogued their flinch in the back of his mind
“Is there something you would prefer me to call you”
“Just Tsu please kero”
“Okay Tsu would you like to go somewhere warm”
“Okay”

Once again he was walking silently with a child to his home this time with a broken backpack full on stuff in his arms and the sun rising on their faces it was nicer without the immediate urgency
He scanned the keycard and typed the passcode uncaring if his new kid saw after all thy would be using it themselves someday he sighed quietly as they finally walked through his front door at 5 am thankfully it was still a bit too early for even the earliest of risers to be awake
He started his coffee machine and slid a glass of water down the counter to where they were standing confused glancing warily at the doors

“Dont worry its too early for even Mei”
They laughed remembering the time she made an ‘alarm bot’ to make sure all her friends got up on time and it tazed people when they didn't get up fast enough
With the kid calmed down a but it was time to ask
“Hey Tsu?”
They croaked and nodded to show they were listening
“Do you need a home”
“Yes please kero”

Safe to say hazashi was in for a surprise when he came into the kitchen to make breakfast only to find a new child and another two waiting to be picked up
