Chapter Text
Sarashina Kiomi had expected consequences. She was class president, after all — responsible, level-headed, someone who thought things through... for the most part. Which was why she'd carefully calculated the risk-versus-reward ratio before approving the video's upload and determined that getting Deku-sensei to finally acknowledge his feelings was worth whatever punishment they'd earn.
kota
HOLY SHIT IT'S ALREADY AT 15K VIEWS
dai
we're gonna become legends
or get expelled, no inbetween
ok but i told you all to be prepared for this! we discussed the potential consequences and agreed this was for the greater good
kota
kiomi you literally said "fuck it we ball" when we pressed upload
i don't recall saying that
eri
Hey everyone!
I just saw Deku-sensei run past the general studies building looking like he was having a crisis.
kota
mission ACCOMPLISHED.
it's way too early to say that
eri
Aizawa-sensei was following him and LAUGHING
Like actually laughing I didn't know he could do that
i have an INKLING of a feeling he directly sent deku-sensei the link
kota

kota
MATCHMAKING IS A HEROIC ENDEAVOR

eri
That's huge! Bakugou-san hardly ever uses his social media
This is our impact to greater Hero society!
i bet on friday. i don't know whether or not to cheer or start panicking.
kota
kiomi i actually HATE YOU.
I KNEW YOU HAD ULTERIOR MOTIVES TO MAKE THIS VIDEO.
koki
Kota don't even you literally wanted to make the video just as much as Kiomi
eri
I think Bakugou-san's tweet was really sweet actually! He was gonna confess today anyway with or without the video :)
kota
ERI HOW ARE YOU BEING SO CALM
eri
I'm just happy he's finally figured it out!
Also I didn't participate in the betting pool so I'm not losing money like the rest of you
the video is at 150k views
we're #3 on the trending page
i'm FINE. this is FINE.
koki
My grandma ended up commenting on it...
"My child is in Hero Class 1A! Very well researched sweetie!" Help me.
dai
speaking of, all the comments people have been leaving are genuinely the funniest things i've ever read
eri
Even Uravity-san commented!
this is spiraling so much more than i anticipated
chat are we cooked
kota
we genuinely might be
i'm saying that bc Deku-sensei's classroom light may or may not STILL be on
ok... fork found in kitchen, sensei overworking himself
kota
LET ME FINISH TYPING
and Dynamight's been in there for 30 minutes
dai
KOTA. WHY ARE YOU AT SCHOOL.
kota
SOMEONE HAS TO DOCUMENT THIS FOR POSTERITY
we are supposed to be the HEROES. not their TABLOID WRITERS.
kota
i'm being a HERO by making sure sensei doesn't CHICKEN OUT
dai
just so you guys know the video is at 360k views
Eri
I think it's really nice that so many people care about Deku-sensei's happiness
eri you're too pure for this chaos
Eri
Maybe! Honestly I'm also just really impatient and have been wating for this to happen for 10 years.
kota
same eri. SAME.
kota
also UPDATE: THEY'RE LEAVING THE BUILDING. TOGETHER.
I CAN'T BELIEVE I'M SAYING THIS BUT DYNAMIGHT JUST PUT HIS HAND ON SENSEI'S LOWER BACK
koki
Pics or it didn't happen but I'll believe it when I see it
kota
THEY'LL SPOT ME IMMEDIATELY KOKI IT'S TOO RISKY
but it's them i know it in my heart
there's literally never any merit whenever you tell the gc anything kota
eri
This feels like we're invading their privacy now maybe we should stop now probably
kota
eri you literally testified on camera
eri
It was for the name of journalism >:(
I was providing historical context!
GUYS..........
i fear sensei just texted the official class gc
eri
Please, Kiomi, send a screenshot. I beg of you.
Deku-sensei
Class, we need to have a serious discussion about boundaries, privacy, and appropriate use of social media on Monday.
Also thank you.
You're all getting extra homework anyway.
Especially you, Kota. Please, for the love of All Might, go back to the dorms. I can see you hiding behind the vending machine.

kota
ABORT MISSION ABORT
HE HAS EYES IN THE BACK OF HIS HEAD
koki
That's what you get for STALKING him
as class prez legally i didn't say this but
kinda worth it
eri
I'm happy that they're happy! :D
ok FINE totally worth it
kota
is the 15 page long essay we're inevitably gonna have to write for social media class going to be worth it though?
that remains the question
the cherry on top is that the video is at a million views
and since i applied for channel monetization before uploading it's safe to say our summer class trip will basically be paid for! (eri included obviously)
eri
Yay!
kota
so worth it then
this is so Plus Ultra
eri
I don't think that's how you use that phrase?
kota
IT IS NOW.
By the time Kota made it back to the dorms and they all trudged off to bed, the video had doubled in views. By morning, it was at five million. By the time Monday rolled around and they filed nervously into Deku-sensei's classroom, bracing for the promised lecture about boundaries and the definitely-promised extra homework, Bakugou Katsuki was already there.
He was leaning against Izuku's desk, two coffee cups in hand, looking far too comfortable in their classroom. When the students entered, he straightened up and fixed them with a glare that would have been terrifying if not for the faint pink tinge to his ears.
"You brats," he said slowly, dangerously, and Kiomi felt her classmates tense beside her, "aren't completely useless."
From behind his desk, Izuku groaned and buried his face in his hands. "Kacchan, you're not helping."
"Wasn't trying to help. Was stating facts." Bakugou handed one of the coffees to Izuku, and the casual intimacy of the gesture — the way their fingers brushed, the way Izuku's expression softened — made the extra homework completely, entirely worth it.
Kota caught Kiomi's eye and grinned. Mission accomplished.
