    Summary

    He’d met Midoriya a few months ago during a field trip to the library. The kids had adored him, of course, even the ones who were usually shy about participating in new activities. Midoriya had a way of projecting a sense of all-encompassing safety and comfort with just his smile.

    Shouto had adored him too, maybe, even back then. A silly crush that had only grown during every subsequent field trip — which is truly absurd, considering the vast majority of their interactions at the time consisted of occasional eye contact while singing children’s songs.

    But now that they’ve spent hours talking almost every day for the past few weeks… calling it a silly crush might be an understatement. The idea that he’s actually been able to help Midoriya through this is inordinately pleasing.

    If there’s a silver lining to this at all — for him personally, at least — it’s that he’d seen Midoriya’s post requesting a virtual board game buddy. And that Midoriya is a patient enough person to teach Shouto how to play everything from scratch. He’d actually seemed excited at the opportunity.

    Maybe the opportunity for any sort of ongoing social interaction is worthy of excitement. These are strange times.

    Summary

    "C'mon, Shou. You know what I mean."

    "Do I?" Shouto asks, bemused.

    "I have - back pain. My ankles are shot from too many rough landings. I snore, and I need glasses, and my knees pop every time I get out of bed in the morning." He shakes his head, sighing. "It's embarrassing, you should divorce me."

    "We haven't even submitted the marriage registration yet," Shouto points out.

    "Then maybe you should run away while you still can!"

    Shouto blinks. "Because your knees pop?"

    "Because I'm - old and worn out!"

    "But isn't that the whole point of getting married? That we can take care of each other as we get older, and make sure we aren't pushing ourselves too hard?"

    Izuku purses his lips.

    "The point is that I forced you into a stupid pact in high school about getting married to each other if we didn't marry other people first, and now here we are! Cutting the cake and tossing bouquets!"

    Ah, Shouto thinks. This again.

    As third years, Izuku and Shouto decide to get married. Fifteen years later, they actually do it.

    Summary

    "It would have been better for me too, if you'd died then," Claudia comments, but her tone feels less accusing than Armand has grown accustomed to hearing from her. The words feel like they come more on impulse than anything else. The anger still persists, of course, like it always will, but it's mixed terribly with the unbecoming sensation of being seen. "Did you get the ideas for the ways you tortured me— Baby Lulu, the rats, the mind fuckery of the trial— from him, or were those all your own unique ideas, crafted specially for me?"

    Or, Claudia haunts Armand as he reconnects with his past.
