Chapter Text

Thebird 

Ears? Pierced. Earrings? Worn. Hotel? Trivago.

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

Claire's had someone with a quirk that sped up the healing process?

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

F to doubt

 

Thebird

Yeah no lol I'm wearing a pair of studs 

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

Talking like I know any of the terminology 

 

Thebird

Hoe don't even

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

Idk what you mean

 

Thebird

UrMom

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

Eugh.

 

Thebird

That's what I thought

 

Thebird

Oop gtg 

 

Thebird

Hisashi just paid for our food

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

Oh so you're calling him Hisashi now

 

Thebird

I tried with the whole "dad" n "father" thing but it's so awkward I literally don't know this man

 

Thebird

Pretty sure he still expects me to call him dad tho sooooo....

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

He's been in America for like a decade now so shouldn't he think it's the norm if you just call him by his first name

 

Thebird

Anxiety

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

Sigh

 

Izuku turned off his phone and jogged to keep up with Hisashi's long strides. They were quick to leave the mall and soon enough they were back at the house. Izuku immediately darted to the room, closing the door behind him, and pulled up YouTube.

 

What? He hadn't been able to have his quiet time in the past couple days, sue him.

 

He switched between videos, trying to find a good one, but none of them held his attention, so he kept looking. And kept looking. And... kept looking. Not even the ones he liked to watch on repeat felt interesting. Weird.

 

Maybe YouTube just wasn't his thing for the moment, that was fine. He put his phone away and reached for a book- hm. He didn't have any books in the room. Oh, wait, nevermind, he had a few in his bag.

 

He reached down and opened his schoolbag, glancing between his three options. None of them felt satisfying. Alright, fine, he'd just write some analysis then. He pulled out his recent notebook and moved to sit at the desk. He settled in completely, adjusting to make sure he was entirely comfortable (a lot of the time, whenever he writes analysis, he'll become super hyperfixated on it; he'd already learned his lesson and knew to be in a good position before writing). His pencil hovered over the page.

 

He hesitated.

 

Something was wrong. He didn't feel... motivated. Like, at all. He wasn't inspired to write anything. He tapped his pencil a couple times. He wanted to write, he did, but he just couldn't bring himself to begin. It felt like his own body was preventing himself from doing anything, while his brain was making sure that he couldn't find his usual joy in analysis. 

 

He left the desk, moving back over to the bed, only to find he was suddenly uncomfortable. Maybe Kacchan would be able to help, or at least explain what he was experiencing.

 

He picked up his phone and even made it all the way to their texts, but his fingers started to feel heavy. Not in the tired way, no, but he didn't know how to describe it. Izuku stared at his phone screen until it started to dim, trying to will himself to type something. 

 

Eventually, he gave up, turning off his phone and just staring at the ceiling. He was bored. He wanted to do something. Anything. His brain wouldn't let him.

 

Maybe he could ask Hisashi.

 

He thought about moving, but his body refused to do so. His limbs felt heavy, almost detached from him entirely. Even twisting to look at something felt like too much a burden. 

 

Nevermind then.

 

He didn't know how long he had lied there, but it was long enough for Hisashi to knock on his door to tell him that he ordered lunch, and to just grab whatever. Izuku finally peeled himself off the bed, still feeling like his brain was preventing him from everything. When he got to the kitchen, where Hisashi said the food was, he didn't feel hungry.

 

He looked around in the fridge and the nearby cupboards, but nothing looked remotely appetizing. He gave up and made his way over to the snack cupboard, where the same thing happened, but he forced himself to grab a small thing of chips. It was better to have something small than nothing at all, or at least that was what his mom would tell him. 

 

Eating the chips was just the beginning, however, because he realized very quickly that he was, in fact, really hungry. He migrated back to the kitchen and ended up eating one of the ramen bowls Hisashi ordered. He felt like he could get finally back to doing things, so he started texting Kacchan while he went back to the room.

 

Thebird

Bro. Just experienced the weirdest thing.

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

Elaborate

 

Thebird

Okay so like I was just lazing about trying to watch YouTube bc yk YouTube time blah blah blah

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

Mhm mhm

 

Thebird

But like none of the videos were interesting??

 

Thebird

Not even the ones I like to watch on repeat???

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

Even the All Might debut?

 

Thebird

Even that

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

Oh damn

 

Thebird 

Ikr?? It was really weird

 

Thebird 

But I thought I just wasn't vibing with youtube in the moment, whatever, so I try and find a book to read

 

Thebird 

Same thing happens, oh well, I don't read super often anymore anyways

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

Oh yeah I noticed that

 

Thebird 

This is where it gets weird (or even weirder idk)

 

Thebird 

I go to do analysis, but I can't write anything

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

What?

 

Thebird 

My body and brain just like refused to do analysis

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

Wtf

 

Thebird 

At that point I was getting kinda worried so I went to text you about it but when I tried the same thing happened

 

Thebird

I just felt idk uninterested in anything and everything

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

That's really weird 

 

Thebird 

Damn I was hoping you would be able to explain it

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

Sorry but yeah idk what that was

 

Thebird 

It's whatever now ig bc I ate some food and I feel better now lol

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

Maybe you were just hungry

 

Thebird 

I don't think it works like that lmao

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate

Thebird

Thebird

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

If it does happen will you finally admit I'm always right

 

Thebird

Only if it undeniably happens lol

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate

Thebird

Thatfuckingbirdihate

Thebird 

𓁹𓁹

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

But you can't say shit you're the one who kept me up all night

 

Thebird 

You literally said you were gonna go to bed

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate

Thebird 

Ye

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

Aight

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

Oh shit I think I'm actually getting on sensei's nerves gimme a sec

 

Izuku waited for Kacchan to update but he never did. Shrugging it off as him just finally getting classwork done, he turned his own attention to Minecraft args. He was midway through a new video from Dust, someone who (in his opinion) had some of the best videos, when Kacchan finally texted back.

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

THE ASSHOLE ACTUALLY TOOK MY PHONE AWAY

 

Thebird 

Lmao deserved

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

Oh shut up you're probably watching arg bullshit again

 

Thebird

Thebird 

I'll believe when we become the Halloween throuple

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate

Thebird

You're literally on the aroace spectrum

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

I'm literally demiromantic 

 

Thebird 

You literally don't have a crush on my

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

You literally don't know that

 

Thebird 

Well do you

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

I don't but that's not the point

 

Thebird 

IT IS??? THAT IS THE EXACT POINT IM MAKING?????

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

Mm I don't think so

 

Thebird 

Ykw fuck this shit I'm gonna take a nap

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

School just ended??? I thought it was phone call talk time????

 

Thebird 

I am tired I pulled an all nighter

 

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

Oh you fucking dumbass go to bed

 

Thebird

Thatfuckingbirdihate 

Then stop texting

 

Thebird
