    Summary

    “I want to honour them,” Izuku said softly. “When I cosplay, I just want people to see how amazing these heroes are.”

    Shouto brushed a thumb over his cheek, careful not to smudge his makeup. “They do. I promise.”

     

    Or: Izuku and Shouto attend HeroCon, five years post-graduation.

    Summary

    “Uh- I, um-” Izuku clears his throat. “Wh-what size? Do you want your drink in?”

    “Oh,” the man says, and he blinks once, lashes fanning over his cheeks- they’re white, his lashes are white- “Medium.”

    “O-okay!” Izuku sputters out, jabbing the order onto the screen. “What’s your name?”

    The man pauses. Then he opens his mouth, closes it again, then says, “Shou.”

    “Shou,” Izuku mutters, testing it on his tongue. He taps in the name. “If you would please make your way to the left towards the waiting area, we’ll have your drink ready soon!”

    “I haven’t paid yet though,” Shou says, and Izuku hears Uraraka muffle her laughter behind him.

    Summary

    Midoriya Izuku died six months ago in the dead of the night. He and his mother went out in a sleeping, burning glory; a strange, complete accident.

    That’s what the papers said, at least. They certainly paid no mind to the boy walking around in the quiet hours of the night. They certainly never asked about Midoriya Hisashi either.

    Todoroki Shouto felt like he should have died a long time ago. He certainly was considering that now, staring down at this stupid man and his stupid, rusted wire. A strange, complete waste of a fight; a tragic death in a gross, empty backroad. His father would just burn at the news.

    That thought was almost enough to make him smile, green flashing in his vision as his fate finally aligned.

    Summary

    Izuku doesn't know why the day keeps resetting. He doesn't know why he's trapped on campus, or why there's no phone reception, or why Aizawa and Shinsou keep losing their memories of the Saturdays they've already lived, while Izuku remains constantly, painfully aware.

    But he does know this: Aizawa and Shinsou keep dying, over and over again, in more brutal and creative ways. And it's his job to save them.

    Summary

    The Midoriya family is of the forest.
    They come from the trees, the forest, lovely, dark, and deep.

    All that comes from the forest eventually must return. (There is a tale, that those who die in the forest do not truly die. There is a tale that winter’s children used to be people too.)

    His whole life, Izuku has been looking for shelter. And now that he’s found it, it’s so devastatingly easy to share.
