    Summary

    The air suddenly smells like burn cream and the bathroom of his childhood home and the same detergent his clothes used to be washed with when he was twelve.

    Dabi shakes his head because he can’t fall into his memories now, they’re in the middle of a war and he can’t afford to let something this stupid be his downfall. He’s not there. He isn’t there. This can’t be happening now - he’ll be sent straight to Tartarus if he’s incapacitated, he can't let himself be vulnerable.

    He makes a horrible, pained noise and clutches his head, pulls at his hair in hopes it’ll get the oncoming breakdown to stop, praying that whatever is about to happen doesn’t.

    or: dabi has a flashback in the middle of the war.

    Summary

    “What’s it like?” Touya says. Sudden, unbidden, impossible to take back. He clears his throat. “Going to UA.” Touya can’t look when he says it. He stares off in the opposite direction like the wooden beams and window panes of the house are fascinating.

    “It’s the best,” Shouto says at last. “I love the dorms. My friends are always there, and class is challenging, but in a good way—well, it’s really thanks to Aizawa-sensei.” His voice is still low and melodic like it always is, but an edge of childlike excitement seeps into it.

    Touya turns to look at him, and Shouto’s whole face is lit up. It fills Touya with bittersweet fondness. He’s glad Shouto likes it there.

    “Sounds fun.” Touya looks down, blinks at his own clenched hands when he realizes he isn’t lying.

    Or, 5 times Dabi helped a hurting kid + one time he received help instead.

    Summary

    “No!” Tomura’s body was moving before his mind had caught up, already at the door, reaching for the black coat that had appeared beside it. “I won't let it happen! Midoriya promised to look after them for me! I can’t let them be hurt anymore! It’s not fair! I don’t give a shit if I’m dead or not, I will not let that crapsack world chew up any more of my friends!”

    He opened the door, whistled for Mon, and left.
    ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Luckily, death is not the end, and Tomura is not alone. The League seems destined to reassemble, and if Tomura can't save them in this life, then he's determined to do so in the next.
