You sure can sweetie! I hope you like it! It did get a biiit longer than expected….
“Die Deku!!”
As soon as the words blasted through the training ground Midoriya saw a flash of yellow, red and blue bursting in his direction. He barely had enough time to react as Bakugo charged at him full speed.
The attack knocked him back and away from the rest of his team. Today was joint training for both hero classes and he had been teamed up with Asui, Momo, and three other kids from 1-B, including you.
Midoriya knew Bakugo well enough to tell that he was trying to accomplish two things with this attack. One was to intimidate him (but that wasn’t new). The second was to show off to you. You looked more concerned than impressed though as you looked at the two boys. He also caught something else in your eyes. Something like guilt. Were you aware of what had been going on?
For the past few days Bakugo had been more aggressive towards Midoriya than normal. Of course, agressive had always been his default mode towards Midoriya and the world as a whole. But things were somewhat worse.
That had been the case since Bakugo noticed Midoriya’s crush on you. How dare the green haired loser? He had his own plans (and crush) for you. And that loser Deku would not get on the way. He would not allow that.
After he discovered the loser’s crush on you, he took the most direct approach that was possible. He cornered Midoriya after class and told him to jump off ship. It wasn’t going to happen, obviously, who’d want him anway? He should either drop the nonsense or face the consequences.
This time though Midoriya did not back down. At first he stuttered and shook (as per usual) at the explosions bursting from his friend’s hands. But then he gulped down and did something completely unlike him. He made direct and unflinching eye contact.
“For the headcanons I’d love to ask all the little ways Shinso would show his affection for his crush or s/o because imagining him feeling comfortable enough to open his heart to somebody is so cute~ <3” ]
His body is pretty open around them. When they talk he actually faces them, his arms aren’t crossed and he smiles genuinely. With others, his laughs and words are a little forced and his gaze occasionally falls to the ground.
He’s actually a little more animated when he talks as well. It can be his hands moving as he speaks or his expression changing more often depending on the topic at hand.
Proximity is also a big thing. Everyone knows about his personal space, but his crush is completely oblivious to it because he’s comfortable around them.
It actually shocked everyone the first time their crush pulled a chair right next to them and he didn’t scoot away. Not that he makes it that obvious with others, but one second they’re next to him and the next he’s put some space between them.
One of the biggest things, but might seem subtle, is that his words don’t have any double meanings when he’s talking with his crush.
With others, he might be trying to get them to respond a certain way so he can use his quirk or so his quirk isn’t accidentally activated, but with his crush, he doesn’t have to worry. It comes naturally.
He’s just that much more comfortable around them.
And lastly, his crush would have been the first person to know why he longs to be a hero. This is not quite as subtle, but it’s what led other to realize that this person meant a lot more to Shinsou than any of them had thought.
His crush might have let it slip and everyone was curious as to why they knew and they had just simply asked, which everyone else had already done and never gotten a straight answer so they knew.
That might have been a big clue to their crush as well.
this is so damn CUTE im dying ok thank u for my life anon (also thank you!! a lot of love went into it, but @glenthemes created this theme and did most of the heavy lifting!)
btw have u seen shinsou in the new ep…. I can’t believe I’ve been enchanted by one(1) purble buff boy
Bakugou is! a strong proponent of making his territory very obvious to any challengers.
He knows that no one could actually succeed in taking something from him, but he feels better defining what’s his and sort of does this unknowingly.
AKA he’ll let you know that he really cares about you through pretty tame physical contact! Throwing an arm around your shoulder and tugging you close, or pulling you down onto his lap for a comfy sit, this boy tends to be in contact with you (or at least close to you) in some way.
Bakugou happens to be really good at kabedon. You know, when one person slams their hand onto the wall behind someone else and effectively traps them there.
It’s less of a power move everything is a power move for Bakugou and more of him just getting you to himself for random things. He’ll pull you aside this way for regular conversation, but the closeness he intiates makes it all the more intense and intimate.
“I can’t fuckin’ stand the pricks in this school.” Bakugou, probably, after kabedon’ing you.
If you lean forward just a little bit, you’ll be able to give him a quick kiss before he realizes what’s going on. He’ll catch onto your habit of doing that and take to pecking your lips when he’s ready to let you go, and while he doesn’t entirely mind anyone seeing (because he wants to make it obvious that you are his), he’ll get flustered with a side of angry if anyone from the class spotted this cute exchange.
How he likes to be shown affection
Just tell him you think he’s the best, honestly.
That’s not all he likes, but he likes it a lot. He’ll respond haughtily, probably with something along the lines of “I don’t need you to tell me that, I already know.”
But he really appreciates it, especially during his weaker moments.
He also likes it when you basically run with whatever physical contact he initiates. If he wants you to sit in your lap, he loves when you take a seat on his lap after he pats his thigh, or when he tugs on your hip. All the boys look at him like he’s some sort of god whenever you do, and he couldn’t be more smug about it.
He throws his arm around you? Lean into him, touch his abs; admire him without words and he’ll be on cloud nine.
And please, for the love of the gods, tell him he looks great in those jeans that Best Jeanist forced him into during his internship. He kept that same pair and loves it when you gawk like some lovesick idiot.
Shinsou, despite his reputation as an outcast and a loner, happens to be a very affectionate person.
At least towards you he is.
His deadpan stare gets warmer when its directed at you, but no one can tell. One of aspect of your relationship that demonstrates just how much he cares about you is the wordless language the two of you share. Just one look from each other and you can both understand what you two are thinking– it’s a little terrifying, but in the place of silence, Shinsou tends to be his loudest.
He loves to run his fingers through your hair and pet your head! It’s a habit of his that you notice he does whenever you two sit in silence with one another, as if his hand just needed something to do.
He probably learns little things by playing with your hair, if its long enough– little braids and goofy looking ponies that he snickers at you for, after he’s done them. You may not even realize he’s messing with your hair in this way because his fingers are so nimble and gentle.
Sometimes he’ll rest his forehead on yours and shut his eyes. He’s always tired, even after a good night’s rest, and another face of his affection for you is demonstrated in his willingness to nap on you or around you.
A lot of what Shinshou does when he shows affection towards you is done in silence. He’s never been one for words, and his quirk is one that silently attacks. His strength is in his mind and body language, and he defaults to wordless actions when he’s feeling affectionate.
How he likes to be shown affection
Shinsou really appreciates it when you hold his hand. There’s something about entwining your fingers with his and giving his hand a little squeeze that really puts his mind at ease. He’s got a lot on his plate sometimes and it helps to anchor him back to the immediate present– you.
He likes it when you’re just your genuine self around him. He wants you to know that you needn’t shield yourself around him and although he won’t be super animated in a conversation, he loves knowing that you trust him enough to tell him about your interests, your worries, your troubles, and even mundane things like what you had for lunch.
He loves it when you give him cute little butterfly kisses, and the occasional Eskimo kiss. Nothing too intense, but enough to practically melt him like butter right in the palms of your hands. The feeling of your lips around his face, especially his closed eyes and his cheeks, could put him to sleep if he wasn’t urging to kiss you back.
If he had any love language, it would be Quality Time. His heart flutters when you voluntarily choose to spend your time with him, even if he doesn’t have anything particularly fun to do. He knows you love him when you spend time with him even while he’s doing laundry, something he knows wasn’t worth the sacrifice of time you could be spending on studying or going to that movie with your friends.
Just kiss him and let him know you believe in him, okay?
He, out of everyone, relates to your situation the most. All his life his morals have been questioned, so he can sympathize whole-heartedly; this also makes him the best person to go for comfort.
He’s heard about you through the grape-vine, and he doesn’t like what the rumors imply. He knows you, your heart is good and intentions pure– makes him angry and frustrated that someone like you is getting that kind of treatment.
The first time he heard any negative comments directed towards you, Shinsou immediately questioned if you were alright. It broke his heart, your sad smile and quiet “It’s fine, I’ve gotten used to it over time” he’s used to it too, but he knows he shouldn’t be. You shouldn’t be either.
He’s protective; finds a kinship with your shared issues, he won’t let anyone bring you down if he can help it. His looks to anyone who dares insult you are deathly; strikes fear in anyone’s heart. He’s touchy a bit too, afterwards– holds your hand or stands closer than normal. He’s very honest, will honestly tell you how much he admire you and your quirk– it’s hard no to believe him
Aizawa Shouta
Aizawa is not a shallow man. He doesn’t look at physical features as much as he looks for how well their personality fits him, or if he can logically see himself with said person. It often takes him by surprise when he remembers not everyone thinks this way.
He finds it a waste to judge people on their quirks– a person can’t help what they were born with, why is that so hard for people to grasp? While he isn’t one to take insults to heart, it does bother him when he sees someone being ridiculed for something they can’t control.
He’s never thought much about your wings besides their functions and usefulness; they’re hard not to notice but they’ve never bothered him. It’s a little shell-shocking for him, to hear insults thrown your way for a pair of wings…the surprise turns to anger of course, when you tell him you’re used to it. It’s a stupid thing to be used to.
Like Shinsou, he’ll glare. Cold, bone-chilling black eyes staring at you with a promise of death is enough to send anyone for the hills. If there’s someone who won’t leave you alone–he get’s physical, using his capture weapon or activating his quirk for extra intimidation points. He compliments your quirk in a more…logical way– often pointing out all the good you could do with it, or how the colors look nice against your skin. He tries, he really does.
Hawks
All his life, he’s been praised for his wings. His quirk is strong, useful in every sense so it’s no wonder how loved it is. He’s never really dealt with harsh feedback before– anything similar is easy to brush off.
That being said, when he meets you his first focus is your wings. Doesn’t really pay attention to how they look other than the fact that they’re fucking wings, and he can totally bond over that. It gets lonely in the sky sometimes, having someone who can accompany him is so ideal!
Honestly, it’s never past his mind how creepy your wings may come off. He’s too nice and excitable for his own good– and while he’s very aware of the cruelness and unfairness of the world around him, it’s still a surprise to see people wary of you. He may be cocky and a little bit egotistical, but if he cares for you he’s always ready to make sure you’re alright. His heart breaks with your sad smile, the words making it even worse.
He’s more vocal than the other two– taking time to gush about you and your quirk until you’re red in the face, more gentle touches against the skin of your wings and other parts of you when he notices you feeling down. He’ll call out anyone on the spot who makes harsh remarks– since he still has to keep up public appearances he doesn’t let himself look too angry, but his calm expression matched with tense words can be very scary to cross with. He makes it known that you’re with him, and anything wrong said about you does not fly.
Shinso always saw you as you showed yourself, super confident and direct. Watching you in training was always exciting enough to keep him on his toes. And maybe that’s why he was so drawn to you. A confident person to balance out his self doubt.
But when you voiced your self consciousness of being a foreigner, Shinso was almost shocked. Of course there’s always at least one thing someone is insecure about. But being American? Definitely didn’t see that coming.
“… Why’s that?” He asked you after you spoke up about it.
“It’s just sometimes hard to fit in, you know? I don’t have a full grasp on Japanese language yet so I stutter a lot. I left my family so I could come to this hero school. I just… Don’t feel like I’m enough…”
Shinso was almost speechless. He stared at you and simply shook his head. When you gave him a questioning look, he straightened himself out and spoke.
“You being foreign just makes you stronger than you already are.”
“H-Huh?”
“You said it yourself, you left a lot of friends and family to come to this prestige hero school. And guess what, you got in!” He reached out to grab your hands off of your lap, “And so what if you can’t grasp the language? The fact that you’re learning it at all is amazing. So so amazing.” Shinso placed your hands on his cheeks.
“Listen to me. You’re so very strong and I couldn’t ask for a better partner. Thank you for coming to this school. If you didn’t, I may have never met the love of my life…”
You felt tears prick at the corners of your eyes. “That was so cheesy!”
“Aw c’mon. You love it.”
Shoto Todoroki
Ever since the first day you began training with the class, Todoroki was enamored by you. You had such an amazing personality that just screamed hero, and you always fought for what you wanted. He was amazed.
He felt like he found his soulmate with you, and Todoroki couldn’t care less that you were American. He actually found it incredibly interesting.
But, the same couldn’t be said for you. Todoroki had asked you about the topic due to your sour attitude towards the topic of you being foreign. When you told him about it, he wasted no time asking about it.
“What’s the problem?”
“Everything really! From struggling with the language to me leaving just to study abroad, it piles up to me just hating it…”
Todoroki gave a minute to process this before going back in. He leaned forward and looked you straight in the eyes, “I don’t see you as a weak person for being in a new area. In fact, I see you as a strong and brave person for even being here. You took a leap and you stuck the landing. Perhaps with a bit of a fumble, but you’ll recover. And you’ll be an amazing hero.”
A smile tugged on your lips, causing Todoroki to give you a small smile in return.
This is so adorable?!?! My exes mom actually did this to me so I can easily envision this happening to these sweet boys!
Shinsou
– He would feel really uncomfortable about it at first
– Shinsou wouldn’t know how to approach the situation in the slightest and would just awkwardly grip the back of his head and half-smile
– His s/o would be mortified and would try anything to get their mom to stop!
– Their efforts would be in vain and mommy dearest would continue to rave about how Shinsou treated her little baby amazing and how they’re going to have the cutest little babies
– Eventually, Shinsou would simply use his quirk, in the nicest and calmest way possible, to get them to stop
– This happens every time he goes over, and his s/o actually dreads anytime Shinsou runs into their mom
Todoroki
– Poor guy doesn’t know how to take all of the compliments
– He stands in the doorway with his usual blank stare as he takes the positive beratement of compliments
-Torodoki is actually speechless at the forwardness of his s/o’s mother and how open she is about her love
– She rambles on and on about how Todoroki is the best guy for her baby and continuously asks if they’ll get married in the future
– Luckily, his s/o saves the day and drags him to another room
– At least he’s save for a little bit
Midoriya
– A literal puddle of joy at the compliments
– His cheeks are bright red the entire time, but he adorns the happiest little smile!
– Midoriya is the sweetest child around in his s/o’s mother’s eyes and he is the absolute perfect match to wed their sweet baby
– His s/o is so embarrassed by the situation, but Midoriya doesn’t mind one bit
– He lowkey enjoys the attention, and it makes loving his s/o all that much better. Being accepted is so important to him
don’t you dare tell him he can’t wear your heels or shirts that may or may not be too small for this fashionista
He shares his spotlight with you even if mina already steals it from him Lmao.
when your cold he’ll give you his fabulous cape. then he realizes that his own ass is freezing and lowkey wants it back.
.he has more beauty products then you tbh
he calls you “amour“ and “his sparkles” to which you reply by calling him “Twinkle” and “Bellybuttonboy”
Please take care of his delicate heart.
Shinso
Oh yes
Shinso Hitoshi.
He’s so precious oh my god.
Hitoshi loves to take cap-naps with his s/o. He feels secure when you sleep with him. You two don’t normally go on traditional dates, you’ll just sleep fml.
Don’t ask him what eyeliner he uses, its a secret.
do you really expect me to believe that this boi doesn’t sleep whenever he has the opportunity too?
He just wants to be your hero, fuck all of dem hoes who said he was villainous.
buy him a cat. he’ll love you forever.
The cats your first child.his names go-go.
Monoma
wHO’S THAT SEXY THING, I SEE OVER THERE
that’s me….. bitch
His favorite hobby is to mock everything that breaths. You’re his only exception so there’s no need to hold your breath. Exhales
He’s so cocky. too cocky. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
he’s gonna call you a goddess and brag all the time about you and how his s/o is completely out of their league.
please, someone, stop him.
This relationship is filled with compliments /because/ he can’t help but to say lovely things to the person he /love/.
As much as Shinsou hated the cold, when it came to being completely snowed in, he actually didn’t really mind it.
His main issue with winter was being out in the cold since he hated the whole fuss and annoyance of bundling up only for the five minutes it took to get from the dorms to school. That, and snow was a pain in the ass, so overall winter was definitely not his favorite season, but with you around this year things were a bit different.
With you, he started to understand why so many couples considered winter a ‘romantic’ time of the year. With you he was willing to brace the cold if it meant he got to hold you close as you walked through to park, plus he always secretly wished you got cold because you looked painfully cute wearing his scarf bundled all the way up to your nose. Along with your walks, he loved the hot cocoa runs to the cafe or just walking around town and enjoying the festive lights together.
While the classic winter outdoor activities were fun for him, however, being stuck inside with you was just as nice.
For one, it gave him an excuse to cuddle up with you without looking like he was too needy, simply claiming that he was freezing and you were hogging all of his blankets anyways.
Along with that, even though he had to admit that in all honesty he hated those cheesy feel good Christmas themed movies, he would still pay to watch them with you cuddled up to his side. Just seeing you smile or laugh at some Christmas pun was enough to make his heart warm even if it was followed by you teasing him for being a ‘Scrooge’ when he didn’t seem as invested in the heartwarming scene in the television as you were.
The best thing of all, however, passed the shared cups of hot chocolate and mooshy movies, was the quietness afterwords. The feeling of your heart beating against his own as you slowly fell asleep lying against his chest watching the snowflakes lazily fall from the sky outside his bedroom window, followed by the soft feeling of your lips brushing against his own before you muttered out a sleepy ‘Night Hitoshi’. Now that, that was definitely the best thing of all, and for once in his life, that was what made him finally think: ‘Thank god for winter.’
