"can i help you with something?" you ask sun in muffled amusement one day, eyes glued to the tablet in your hands. the last kid at the daycare had finally been picked up, leaving you to do your end-of-day inventory check in preparation for tomorrow.
"hm?" sun feigns ignorance, lanky body casting your own in his shadow as he hovers over you at your side. "with what?" a tone of innocence lines his voice, but you know he is anything but.
you look up to give him a deadpanned stare, metallic fingers pinching gently at your cheek and pulling slightly in a way that makes your mouth stretch. "oh, i don't know," you start in a lighthearted manner, "do you need your fingers oiled again?"
sun tugs at your cheek a bit harder and you swat at his arm, but he doesn't relent. "mmmmnope! joints are in tip-top shape!"
"well can you stop pinching my cheek?" you roll your eyes and are forced to lower your tablet when his other hand comes up to pinch and pull at your other cheek, too. it makes him crowd further into your space, his lithe form moving to cover your front as his head bends over your significantly smaller body.
sun only hums again and you're forced to adhere to his whims for the time being. you know you won't be able to pry him away, robot strength be damned. "i can't help it! you're so... squishy."
"well, yes." you snort to yourself and squint your eyes closed as he pulls at your skin as though it's made of playdough. spoiler alert, it's not. "human being, remember? not durable robot?" you emphasize the word in an attempt to get him to stop, but he ignores it. you huff, and when you feel your cheeks start to ache from his ministrations, you complain. "sun, c'mon, you're acting like my grandma at holidays. stop it."
sun lets out a little click that makes you peek up at him through your eyelashes. his head has tilted to the right, and a twitch of his smile is all the warning you get before he forces himself further into your personal space.
"ooh look how much you've grown!" sun coos down at you in an impression of someone elderly, thumbs rubbing into your cheeks. it makes you huff, but you resign yourself to his teasing. hopefully he just needs to get it out of his system. "my baby is so big now! adorable! gorgeous! they grow up so fast!" he releases one of your cheeks so he can pretend to wipe a tear from one of his white eyes. you internally celebrate at the relief and quickly lift your hand not holding your tablet to cover your aching cheek. his head tilts to the left at the loss, but he's still got his fingers pinching at the other side of your face. you're not sure how much of this you can take.
"sun, buddy, you're killing me over here," you manage to get out, ears tinged red at all his attention. his grin seems to widen.
"i remember when you were just a wee thing!" sun continues in a voice that's a pretty spot on imitation of someone in their later years. "dancing around, pretending to marry that little toy you had. tell me sweetie, do you have any special person in your life, hm? any lover? am i gonna have any grandbabies running around soon?"
a flush crawls up your neck at his words and you halfheartedly glower up at him. honestly, what the hell? where is this even coming from? sun only finds delight in your glare, however, if the way his rays spin around is any indication.
"dude," is all you manage to say. it makes his eyes upturn into crescents. "knock it offâ ow! hey, that hurts!" he'd given your cheek a particularly rough tug and it makes something drop in the pit of your stomach. you watch with wide eyes as he lowers himself until his face is mere inches from yours, dark with the shadows from the fluorescent lighting above.
"well?" sun whispers to you, all the mirth and delight gone from his voice as though they had never been there in the first place. you swallow heavily and suddenly feel very, very uneasy. his smile stretches farther along his face, unnatural and thin. "do you?"
mentions: blood, injury, horror themes. sorry LMAO. they care u?
you were taughtâlike all others at a young ageâthat the word 'friend' has a positive connotation.
friend, best friend, work friendâthey all have positive associations with them. it's only natural, you suppose, for humans to crave close connections to others. after all, you've experienced it your whole life, not only with yourself, but when looking at the people around you and how they interact with the world.
friends are good, simple as that. and to be called someone's friend means that you'll always be there for them. that you care about them and crave their presence in your life.
so when sun calls you his friend for the first timeâyour first day on the job, in factâyou're a bit surprised and maybe a little weirded out. you've only just met him and frankly, you hadn't been aware that this applied to robots as well. it's something you find yourself ruminating upon later.
he uses the title very often, you've noticed. not only with you, but with others as well. mostly the kids at the daycare, since they are whom he interacts with the most on a daily basis. you figure it must be part of his programming to make people more comfortable with him, so you let him call you whatever his little robot heart desires. not like it was really bothering you or anythingâthough you certainly grow more accustomed to it the closer you get to him.
part of you wonders if he puts any weight behind the wordâif by calling you 'friend' he truly means it. maybe he doesn't understand the conceptâmade, as he is, from metal and code. perhaps it is just an empty word. perhaps it isn't. you're not sure if you'll ever know.
moon doesn't call you 'friend', not really. he's quite quiet when he wants to be and sticks to calling you other names that make your eye twitch sporadically on more than one occasion. what he does do relentlessly is tease you, and you figure that's his way of getting close to people. or driving them away, whichever comes first. you get used to him like you get used to sun's openness.
you find yourself pondering upon the relationship you form with the daycare attendant over time, analyzing and picking them apart in your mind in the nights you spend at home. they seem to have an affinity for your presence, seeking you out the moment you step into the daycare. they talk to you, they laugh with you. they show genuine interest in the things you have to say. they hug you and spin you around. they pat your head and pinch your nose.
and so you conclude, one night after returning from the pizzaplex, that sun and moon are your friends. a strange thought, you muse, to be friends with robots. it makes you happy, you admit.
so then why are you so afraid right now?
you swallow heavily as you try to level your shallow breaths, heart pounding a harsh beat in your chest. you need to calm down, you need to calm down or they'll hear you. their sensors allow them to pick up on irregular rhythms, they'll find you if you don't calm yourself. deep breath in, deep breath out. breathe.
perspiration slides down the side of your face as you hunker into yourself, curled underneath a party table with cloth adornments that conceal your form from the outside. you're safe here for now if you don't disturb the fabric around you. your legs curl farther into your bodyâsquishing yourself into as small of a ball as possible. darkness surrounds your figure, interrupted by the dim light you can see filtering through the table cloth.
your right hand grips at your left shoulder, wet with a thick liquid that spills between your fingers and coats the inside of your shirt. it hurts, god, it hurts so much. you're confused, you're scared. you don't know what's going onâonly that something is so very, very wrong. wrong from the moment you'd stepped into the daycare, and the moment you'd ran out.
your throat aches when you swallow, a dryness coating it like there are cotton balls instead of mucosa lining it. you lick your lips in a vain attempt to wet them and close your eyes to suppress the way your vision swims before you. deep breath in, deep breath out. you're not calming down, why aren't you calming down?
your heartrate spikes abruptly when you hear a slow, dull clanging sound somewhere to your far left. it's loudâgetting louder with each beatâand makes you cover your mouth with your unoccupied hand as best as you can. something wet slides down the curves of your cheeks and drips onto your collarbones. you still your breaths and do your best not to make a sound.
the clanging gets louder and a glitched, warbling voice calls out over it in a way that makes your stomach drop down to your feet. "f-friend! friend!" it cries out desperately, static lining its voice. the word makes something icy coat your insides and seizes your guts in an iron grip. "w-where a-are you hi-hiding, f-friend?"
your teeth clench together so harshly you swear something in your jaw creaks. your eyes dart around, wishing you can see beyond the table cloth. but you're forced to rely on your hearing as the clangingâheavy, metallic stompingâmoves somewhere behind you. "f-friend! we-we are s-so sorr-r-y for hur-hurting you!" the voice gets closer, like it's right on top of your head. "come out, pl-please?"
fat chance, you want to say, but you don't. your lower lip trembles minutely and your eyes catch onto a shadow that moves on your left. just beyond the table cloth. you don't move. you don't breathe. if you listen close enough, you can hear small clicks of metal against metal. little jerks and twitches.
a beat passes. your muscles tense.
a scream leaves your lips as cloth rushes over your head. the table gets flippedâthrown to the side like it weighs nothingâand you're left exposed to the chilly air of the pizzaplex. you scramble backwards, but feel something latch onto your ankle and drag you down until you're flat on your back and staring up up up. at the towering figure of metal and silicon crouched over you, three arms crooked towards you in a way like they are about to grab you.
its shadow casts itself over your prone form, interrupted by an iridescent purple that gleams across the pupils of its eyesâfaint.
"f-friend!" it says excitedly as its grip tightens around your ankle. another one of its arms latches onto your uninjured shoulder while a third lifts its sharp claws up to wipe at the tears running down your face. "th-there y-you are! found you, we f-found you~! why did you h-hide from us?" its grin seems to widen and thins at the edges, voice dark with a static you've never heard before. your heart stutters in your chest, a sob lingers in your throat.
it's sun. it's moon. it's both of them. it's neither of them. it's your friend. it's not your friend.
you don't know who they are anymore. you don't know why them calling you their friend has turned that previously warm feeling in your gut into something much, much darker.
you were friends. you were friends.
you stare up at them and flinch when their hands tighten over you to bring you closer to them.
...right?
mentions: horror themes, some blood :)
it was supposed to be a fun game of marco polo.
your handâclammy and stiffâwas clamped solidly against your mouth as you stuttered through breathing via your nose. the space you had crammed yourself into was smallâbarely able to hold yourself inside of it. your back was pressed against a wall, your legs were folded so that your thighs were flush against your chest. every small shift you made sounded like a gunshot in the stagnant air.
perspiration slid down the side of your face as you closed your eyes and listened carefully over the sound of your rampant heart. th-thump th-thump th-thump. it wanted to encompass everything and leave you to rely on your other sensesâsenses you could not use right now. not with the darkness of your hidey hole or the numbness of your hand. pain was starting to cloud your mind. you gave your head a small shake to snap yourself out of it.
you had to focus and listen.
everything was still. everything was quiet.
and thenâdistantlyâyou heard it.
"maaaarco."
a voice, disembodied and devastatingly low, rasped through the air.
you swallowed heavily, but did not respond. you didn't know what had triggered them this time. you just knew that you could not be caught. time was what you needed and even that you were not certain you had much of.
there was more silence. then, footsteps. clank clank... clank. careful and deliberate. your lips tensed together and you tried your utmost hardest to make yourself as small as possible. you made the mistake of moving your free handâthe one not clamped over your mouth. it burned something fierce up your elbow. you bit at the inside of your cheek and hoped it wasn't as bad as it felt.
clank clank clank. the footsteps grew louder. each one made you tense even further until you felt like a rubber band about to snap. "marco?!" the voice called againâthis time in a higher pitched, frantic manner. "friend! marco??!!" it paused for the shortest of moments. then it took on a dangerous tone, poison lancing each and every word. "you do not seem to be f-following the rules of this game, friend."
the voice lowered. "and you know what we do to rulebreakers."
you wanted, more than anything, to be anywhere other than here at this very moment. you were starting to get woozy, and you weren't sure if it was from the lack of air in such a confined space, or the dark liquid that stained your shirt and pants. you could feel something warm trace its way down the curve of your armâall the way to your wrist, where it dropped off with a small plip.
the footstepsâthat'd been steadily getting louderâhalted.
you dared not breathe.
it was a moment that felt like a centuryâtoo quiet and too nerve wracking. it put you on edge, made you dart your eyes around as though it would let you somehow pierce through the emptiness to see what was going on around you. a cold, cold feeling had long started to spread throughout your limbs, originating from the pit that'd formed in your stomach.
you waited.
and when they spoke once more, it sounded like it was coming from directly above you.
"marco," they whispered with all the danger of a lion stalking its prey. it made all the hairs on your body stand erect and a foreboding feeling to slide its way down your spine.
it was supposed to be, you thought to yourself devastatingly with a wetness lining your lashes, a fun game of marco polo.
you weren't given any time to react.
handsâas cold and unforgiving as death itselfâwrapped around your arms and tugged. you were yanked out of your hiding spot with a yelp, eyes widening as mismatched lights flooded your vision abruptly and without mercy. it hurt, it hurt. and you could do nothing but hang thereâwithdrawing into yourselfâas they crowded over your small body with a grin stretched uncomfortably wide and unnervingly thin.
"found you! we found you!" they beamed. something manic lined the edges of their smile. "f-found you, you little rulebreaker. time forâ"
their voice cut off suddenly. you opened your eyesâyou had not realized when you'd shut themâand stared up in surprise at their face. but they were not looking at you. they were looking at one of their handsâthat'd been wrapped around your injured arm and had gotten coated with something that appeared black in the limited lighting.
you swallowed thickly. something indecipherable that'd been discoloring their optics seemed to vanish. their face seemed to slacken from its strained expression and took on something akin to... fright. and you dared to speak in a small, hesitant voice. "...guys?"
they went limp at the soundâslumping forwards onto you like a puppet cut from its strings.
"iâ we're sorry," they whispered in a pained voice. clutching tightly onto you like you were the only thing keeping them rooted to the earth. "we're sorry. we're sorry. we're sorry." it was chanted with their head bowed to rest against your abdomen. as though in remorseful prayer.
you closed your eyes and clenched your jaw.
and youâ well... you didn't say a thing.
you didn't say... a thing.
He talks a lotta shit for a guy within KISSING distance đ

PAIRING: yandere!incel!shigaraki tomura x foreinger!reader
GENRE/AU: shigaraki is rlly misogynistic and delusional, age gap (you're older), reader is a substitute english teacher who got kidnapped by bwad gwuys and is now... yeah
CHARACTERS: shigaraki tomura (21), reader (24)
let's be for real: shigaraki was born to be an incel.
and incel!shigaraki is shamelessly self-aware of this, indeed. when he's not out terrorizing innocent citizens with his villainous coups, he takes to the internet to fulfill his insatiable need for an adrenaline rush. gorey video games and brutal death metal makes him light up in glee, but sometimes it's just not enough.
so, instead, he's a frequent on the dark web, diligently scouring sites that specialize in obscure female porn collectives that cater to his twisted kinks. incel!shigaraki glowers at the pictures of stupid, slutty women who prance around in sexy lingerie, but still gets a hard-on because he wishes he had a woman who would do that for him and him only.
and what shigaraki wants, he gets. on another sweaty night in his dark bedroom, he's boredly clicking through the hundreds of entries of women who are being sold for, what he thinks, too high of a price. not that money would ever be a problem for him; if he felt compelled to, he could just kidnap the girl he wanted all over again. so, no, it's not the priceâit's what he thinks they're worth based on his attraction to them.
and, so far, all of them are worthless.
you see, the conundrum is that incel!shigaraki has a thing for foreign girls. don't ask why, he doesn't know. maybe he finds it cute that they're so clueless about his culture and language, and he's the one who'll control the narrative that rules their ignorance. maybe it's so cute how they wear their perpetual confusion on their face at all times, like a bratty kid who can't take navigate the world without mommy or daddy by their side.
of course, though, women could hardly do anything on their own anyway. every time he came across one they'd wail and cry as he grabbed them by the hair and threatened to kill them if they didn't shut the hell up. they'd beg for their lives or scream for someone to save them, but it would only piss him off more at how useless and brainless they tended to be. he just couldn't help but decay themâthey were so noisy and whiny, it wasn't his fault.
obviously, shigaraki has neither patience nor experience with women. in fact, he can probably count with two fingers how many times he's had a non-violent interaction with a woman in his entire lifetime. the mere thought of this drives his insecurities to the brink of rage, but it's not his fault women are so unbelievably tasteless in their choice of men. it's their fault he has to go to such lengths to find a decent woman worthy of his presence.
but imagine his delight when he happens upon a listing of you, an immediately attractive foreign woman who used to be an english substitute teacher of all things. he clicks through your pictures with a renewed vigor, his interest piqued as he studies your unique features. eagerly, he scours through your posted information and it turns out that you happen to be exactly the kind of woman he's looking for.
it's a done deal. the transaction takes less than a few minutes and incel!shigaraki couldn't be more pleased with how smoothly it went. he'll have to leave a good review later on, when and if the woman he's just bought has satisfied him.
it takes just one night before shigaraki finds you literally dropped off at his doorstep like an amazon prime package. youâve clearly been pampered with the way youâre clad in a skimpy maid outfit; your nails, hair, and makeup are all dolled to perfection. you look exactly like you did in the pictures.
and clearly you're wise beyond your years. you don't speak much because of the obvious language barrier, but you do seem to understand a bit of elementary japanese. shigaraki is delighted by your small mutterings of broken japaneseâitâs unbelievably cute. sometimes he'll force you to speak in japanese just because he loves watching you struggle with your limited vocabulary.
incel!shigaraki gets attached to you. you're very attractive in his eyes, and he's completely ecstatic that you're all his. a woman he can do whatever he wants with, and no one would dare question him. the immense power trip sends him over the edge.
that being said, the first couple of weeks are still rather... awkward. you're not happy about being in the situation you're in, but you're smart enough to keep that to yourself. you don't fuss when shigaraki orders you to fetch him liquor or tidy up his filthy room, nor do you complain when he commands you to cuddle with him or keep him company while he plays video games.
"[name], c'mere," he'd bark at you, eyes still glued to the tv screen.
"be a good girl and keep my lap warm, hm?"
he'll force you to wear cute lingerie sets like he's seen the women on porn sites do. somehow you look so much better though, and it feels as though you're teasing him with the way you bend over so much while cleaning. the outline of your pussy through the small fabric that stretches over it has him horny in a matter of seconds. you're such a tease, aren't you ashamed? you just can't seem to stay in line.
however, despite all your obvious sexual innuendos towards him, shigaraki gets no relief. he's resorted to jacking off whenever you go to sleep but no matter how hard or how much he cums, there's an itch that can't be scratched with masturbation alone. and the way you're so shy around him is adorable, sure, but your little playing-hard-to-get act wasn't cutting it anymore.
the remedy? incel!shigaraki starts slipping sleeping pills into your food and drinks.
and it doesn't take long for shigaraki to develop a routine of visiting you while you're sleeping. partly to check up on you and assure himself of your presence, but mostly to creep around the edges of the bed and feel you up. you sleep so soundly that you don't even twitch when he fondles your soft breasts or runs his spindly fingers over your curves.
he almost doesn't want to disturb you; you look so peaceful, totally different than the frightened little faces you muster when you're awake. but the bothersome tightness stretching his boxers taut against its stitches makes it hard to resist his urges. anyway, you're simply doing the only thing a woman is good for: using your body to please him.
his breath is hot and heavy, laced with lust and selfish perversion as he defiles you to get himself off. some nights he just sits and admires your beauty, caressing your face with clumsy, inexperienced fingertips. some nights your shirt is pulled up so he can marvel at how nicely your breasts sit in whatever color bra he forced you to wear.
other nights his cock is nestled between them, thrusting like his life depends on it, chasing that euphoric high he gets when he finally spills his seed across your hardening nipples. and other nights shigaraki is even more daringâcute pajama pants and panties below your knees, face buried between your thighs as he explores every inch of your sweet cunt. he knows it's wrong, but so what? he's a villian, that's what makes it feel so right.
when you make faces in your sleep, he's filled with so much genuine affectionâit's almost as if you're telling him he's doing a good job. you love it, don't you? he so desperately wants to hear you cry his name in that precious accent of yours and run your hands through his hair as you lavish your praise upon him for making you cream so many times.
he can't keep his eyes off you. so soft and compliant. you're so pretty while he's stuffing his cock into you and relentlessly flicking your little clit, not stopping even when he feels you clench around him like a vice as you orgasm over and over. not stopping even though you're drooling all over the linen sheets and he's came twice already.
"that's right... y-you gonna cum again? you gonnaânghâcum all over my cock, you dumb whore?"
shigaraki watches with glassy, intrigued eyes as you squirm ever so slightly, face warped into one of undeniable pleasure as he ravages your gushing pussy. you're such a good girl for him, letting him use you as he wishes.
you're the woman he's chosen to give his virginity to. he's so happy and content that when he cums inside of you for the third time, he doesn't pull out. instead, shigaraki gently maneuvers your body so he can spoon you from behind, whispering tender "i love you's" as if he knows what that means. absently grinding his hips because your warmth is so comforting around his sticky, softening dick.
as much as shigaraki wants to stay and pound you into the mattress all night, the sleeping medication doesn't last forever. not to mention the mess you've made; the sheets are completely ruined and your clothes are strewn about on the floor, long forgotten. it's hot in your room and it stinks of his cum and sweat, but it doesn't really matter. the only thing on his mind is you and how he'll ruin you again tomorrow night.
for now, though, he rewards you for being so good by cleaning you up, smirking whenever you unconsciously nuzzle up to his touch. when your clothes are back on, he plants a tender kiss on your forehead and admires your flushed face from the shadows of your bedside. when the sun begins to rise and you stir in your ignorance, he'll sneak out and act as if nothing ever happened.
incel!shigaraki who doesn't deny that you're just another stupid slutty woman, but you're the only woman he'll ever want to cum inside of. when he returns to his room, he remembers to pull up your archived listing on his computer and dazedly taps away at his keyboard.

TW: Stalking, drugging, kidnapping, murder, Stockholm syndrome, Shigaraki being obsessive (hence the title).
Reader is gender neutral.
Originally published on Wattpad.
You hissed and screamed as the blue-haired villain snatched your wrist, forcibly dragging you out of his room. He threw you onto the floor with little effort, right in front of the entry/exit door.
"I'm done trying. I'm fucking done." He growled, "All these escape attempts, all these damn tears. If you won't love me, then go. Get out. I'll find someone better than you."
This was your chance. Your mind was sending panicked thoughts throughout your body, begging you to run, to shout for help and finally leave this hellhole. You knew that, if you just pissed him off enough, he'd give up. Once he saw you weren't going to come around...
Oh but that was the problem. You were coming around. You just refused to show it. You hid the Stockholm syndrome with a mask of bravery and hatred, refusing to comply with his demands when really, you just longed for his touch. You'd lay awake at night, trying to convince yourself that you despised him. But you just couldn't. You started to pity him. You started to empathize with him, and his morals.
You remembered those late night talks where he'd tell you about his past, rambling about how no one helped him while in his half-asleep state.
Goddammit.
You had waited so long, and now that you were finally being let go, you couldn't bear to leave your captor.
"Well?!" He snapped.
Sighing, you hugged your knees to your chest, "Great job, Shiggy. I think I have Stockholm syndrome."
The man tilted his head in confusion, "Stockholm syndro... What? What're you talking about?"
Tch. He really was delusional. Did he seriously think that this love was real? That you were just playing hard to get all this time? Jesus fucking christ.
"It means, um... You kinda start to... Feel good things about your captor, 'n shit..." You mumbled.
Shigaraki's eyes widened. Then he smiled. Then he yanked you back up from the floor, his arms encasing you in a warm, tight hug.
"Oh, baby! I knew it! I knew you'd fall for me! I just had to keep you here long enough. You were just playing hard to get, I knew I was right!" He rambled, accompanied with a manic laugh, "You're mine... Mine! No one else can have you! You belong to me, my player two. You're mine, mine, mine, all mine!"
So. How did this all happen? How did you meet such an ugly fate? Well.
It started off when Shigaraki was playing Minecraft, in a server created from a Discord server he joined. He'd been playing for quite some time. It was nice playing with other people every now and then. But then he met you.
You were a newbie in the server, seeing as you only had leather armor and wooden tools. You were nice, frequently talking to the other members in the chat. You complimented Shigaraki's skin, so, he gave you one of his iron tools.
Then you whipped out your netherite armor.
And he freaked out.
It was hilarious from your point of view, seeing Shigaraki's many keyboard smashes in the chat. You left the scene, and he chased after you, demanding you give him back his single iron sword.
He was chasing you for a good amount of time, until you eventually gave it back. But only if he gave you his Discord username. Odd... But he complied. Apparently you thought he was fun and wanted to play with him more often. Awh, that was sweet.
The two of you started talking. And talking. And talking... You soon became so close that you trusted Shigaraki enough to start sending him pictures of yourself. You were amazingly attractive. No, no, you were perfect. A cute little face, and a wonderful personality? Oh yes.
You noticed Shigaraki, or as you called him, Shiggy (that was his nickname, is if he'd tell you his real name) started texting you more often. Calling you more often. You didn't know it but he was getting attached. Obsessed, even. No one had ever shown him this amount of kindness, and he needed more. He needed your validation. The way you treated him as if he was an actual human, and not a villain, was seriously enough to get him addicted to you.
Any pictures you sent him? Automatically saved to his gallery. Audio messages? Downloaded. Face time calls? Recorded. You were like a drug that he couldn't get enough of.
The problem came when he attacked U.A. for the second time, taking Katsuki Bakugo hostage.
You'd messaged him, sympathizing with the school's loss. Unfortunately he took this personally, and wrote a long message to you about how the hero system was corrupt and Shigaraki was doing a good thing by destroying it. Of course he didn't outright tell you his identity, but it was enough to make you suspicious of him being a criminal, and you stopped talking to him.
Shigaraki was heartbroken. He couldn't go a day without talking to you. So you know what he did? He hacked into your account, and found your email. Then he hacked into your email, and found your address.
He was going to kidnap you. You'd be all his. He was sure that, with enough convincing, you'd realise that he was right about the heroes and you'd forgive him!
So right now, he was standing across the street from your house, waiting. Well, not for you. He was waiting for your boyfriend. Now he could just scoop you up and run away, leaving him to forget about you, but no... That wouldn't be satisfying at all! Shigaraki wanted to see him rot, wanted to see him decay.
He deserved it, anyway. Before the angry message, you vented to him about your boyfriend cheating on you, but you didn't have enough money to move out. And he sure as hell wasn't moving, he was the one who paid for the house.
The thought of someone cheating on such a beauty like you was enraging, Shigaraki tore away at his neck just thinking about it. So when your boyfriend finally arrived, well, he wasted no time.
Before he could even unlock the door, Shigaraki placed his hand on the man's shoulder, disintegrating him in an instant, staining the concrete with a mixture of blood and dust.
"You're much more tolerable this way," Shigaraki muttered as he stepped over the pile and touched your front door, walking inside the house once the door decayed.
He sat himself comfortably on the couch, waiting for your arrival.
So he waited, and waited, and oh my god how long were you going to take?! Shigaraki was not a patient man! He knew you had work, but, he didn't know when you finished! Urgh! This was so damn frustrating!
He was about to storm through the doorway and leave the house, until he saw someone's car pull up in the driveway. Oh, it was you.
Immediately, he sped back to the couch. The position made it so you wouldn't be able to see him upon entering.
Your screaming was heard, as Shigaraki remembered your boyfriend's decayed body. Oh, right, haha. You wouldn't be entering the house anytime soon, not when he'd clearly paid a visit to your house. So he went outside to see you hiding in your car, presumably trying to dial the authorities. Not today.
You screamed again as you saw Shigaraki jump onto the car and shove his hand against the windshield, disintegrating it as he reached inside to grab you. You tried to escape through the driver's door, but you fell right into his trap, as he got off the car and wrapped his arms around you from behind. He pricked your neck with a syringe, injecting you with some sort of drug.
And you passed out in a matter of seconds.
When you awoke, you were in a room unfamiliar to you. Both your ankles and wrists were tied to the bed, your legs sprawled out and putting you in a rather vulnerable position.
"Aha, you're awake." Said the man sitting in the corner, "Did the drug really knock you out the hard? I swear I put in a small dosage..."
A chill ran down your spine upon hearing his voice. You recognised that voice. But not from the news, no. You couldn't even find the strength to scream as the realisation hit, this villain was the man you'd been talking to on Discord. How could you have been so stupid? How did you not realise that the nickname "Shiggy" was just an abbreviation for "Shigaraki"?!
"Oh, please don't be afraid, D/U (Discord/Username). I won't hurt you... Well, unless you make me. Hehe." He crooned.
You swallowed nervously, "Wh- Why would you do this...? Why did you kidnap me?! Was it because I stopped texting you?!"
Shigaraki cackled, "Matter of fact, yeah! I love you, D/U. I love you I love you I love you I love you I love you! You acted so kind towards me, haha! Big mistake, because now," He walked over to plant a kiss on your cheek, "I get such a warm, fuzzy feeling in my chest when I see your messages. When you face time me. I'm in love with you, D/U~"
"I- I have a boyfriend! You know that!" You cried.
He cocked his head to the side playfully, "Not anymore! But he made you so sad, didn't he?~ Don't worry, I won't ever cheat on you. I'm loyal. Unlike him."
"What do you mean not anymore?! You didn't kill him, did you?!"
"Of course I killed him! Say... This whole time I've been calling you by your Discord user. What's your name, sweetheart? Go on, don't be shy."
You didn't want to answer. You'd always been careful about telling your real name to strangers online, but now that you were facing an infamous villain, you wanted to tell him even less.
But the sharp glare he gave you was enough to convince you otherwise.
You took in another anxious gulp of air, "L- L/n... Y/n L/n..." (Your/name Last/name)
His smile came back to his face, "Oh wow, it suits you perfectly!"
This was all... a lot to take in. You had just gotten back from work, and now suddenly you were tied to a criminal's bed. You'd been chatting to the Tomura Shigaraki all this time? Oh god. Part of you wanted to believe this was all a dream.
"S- So, you... really did kill my boyfriend...?" You asked.
Shigaraki giggled, "Yeah."
A few tears leaked from your eyes, you were somewhat glad he was gone. You despised yourself for thinking this way, but, at least you didn't have to deal with his constant affairs anymore.
"Aww, baby, don't cry. I'm sorry. Kidnapping you was kind of the only option left... Heh. You want me to untie you?"
You nodded, and Shigaraki disintegrated the ropes holding you down.
"Will I everâ"
"No." Shigaraki interrupted cheerily, knowing what you were about to ask. You'd never see your family again, which caused a few more tears to drip down your cheeks.
"Now I won't hesitate to tie you up again if you misbehave. Oh that reminds me, we have some rules to go over... Better put your listening ears on." Shigaraki said, sitting very closely beside you. "Because you're gonna be here for a long time."
It was a whole mix of emotions right now. Everything seemed to be moving so fast. You'd have to listen and see what Shigaraki's rules were before you could make up your mind about whether you felt safe, or vulnerable.

(PLEASE IGNORE THE TITLEâ)
TW: Mentions of captivity, noncon, degrading
Reader has gender neutral pronouns with afab body
-Alright, so Dabi sure does like his piercings, doesn't he? Ear piercings, nose piercings, I guess the surgical staples might count as piercings? You get what I'm trying to say. Anyway Dabi most certainly has a Jacob's ladder. Do with that what you will.
-He may or may not force you to get your tits pierced. He'll do it himself.
-I think he would be around 6 inches exactly, and he doesn't shave. He doesn't care about his hair being white down there, you ain't gonna tell nobody.
-He especially loves your thighs. Nibbling on the flesh, licking his way up until he reaches your cunt. Maybe some light burn marks, if you beg him. He loves it when you beg.
-Caress his scars during sex and he will melt.
-Sex drive is low. Surprising, right? He's a flirty scumbag but most of the time it's just to get a reaction outta you. He just wants cuddles. He's a big softie.
-Most of the time.
-I mean what do you expect? For him to burn and rape you every day? Hell no! My boy needs affection. You're the only person for him, and he will cherish you. His family didn't love him, so he gets that love from you.
-Now, while we're mentioning rape... Dabi isn't against that. He prefers it consensual but he won't hesitate if he's hot 'n bothered.
-No he does not use sex as a punishment.
-The pace differs if it's consensual or not. He'll be rough if you agree to it, it's what you signed up for. But if he's nonconning you, it will be the softest noncon. He'll have you ride him, hands on your hips as he so gently thrusts up into your wet pussy. Praise, praise, praise. He's so gentle.
-Now his aftercare is a little lazy. Grabs a cigarette from the pack on his desk, taking a long drag from it, and pulls you down with him so you can lay on his bare chest.
-Dabi's a villain but he doesn't want you to fear him. Until you try to run away, but that's a story for a different time.
"Hush, baby, shh. I'm not gonna hurt you, I'm just making you feel good, my flame. You'll thank me later. Please just enjoy it."
-Shigaraki doesn't have any piercings, unlike Dabi. But you know what he does have? A collar and leash. He'll strap that pretty pink collar around your neck, and yank on the leash when you don't give him exactly what he wants.
-He's a tits man. He doesn't care how big they are, how small they are, he likes sucking on them. And biting them. And groping them. He likes tits.
-Shigaraki went through several body modifications while he was going through his procedure in season six, didn't he? Well along with his muscles, his dick also grew a bit in size, going from 5.7 inches to 6.3 inches. It's gonna take some time to get used to, but don't worry, he'll teach you how to take it.
-His hair down there changes colour along with the hair on his head. You know because he doesn't shave, either. He honestly can't be fucked doing it. Lazy ass.
-High sex drive. Very high sex drive. You can't blame him, man has probably never seen pussy irl. Very horny.
-Now... Similarly to Dabi, Shigaraki loves and craves your affection. Unfortunately though, Shigaraki is a lot more sadistic than Dabi.
-Which means yes, he will also rape you. But not gently like Dabi. He's rough, aggressive, dominant, he'll tie you down if he has to. He doesn't ask for consent either. He'll just get on top of you and decay your clothes, and you'll know exactly what's about to happen to you the moment you notice the bulge in his jeans.
-Sex is also used for punishments, though it's mainly used for more severe rule breaking, like attempting to call the police.
-He's very degrading. He likes to call you a variety of names, including slut, whore, pet, cumslave, etc etc.
-Dacryphilia fetish.
-But don't worry, it's not all bad. See, if you've read my previous works (mainly on Wattpad), you'll know that Shigaraki gets more sweet when you comply with his demands. Even if it takes months, years, to get used to his rules, he'll reward you if you're a good captive.
-Likewise, his aftercare is very good. Almost as if he wants to make up for the assault with affection. He'll get you a nice, cold glass of fresh water, and once you finish that, he'll carry you to the bathroom and bathe you. Then the rest of the night is spent in his embrace, and he always stays up for hours after you fall asleep. Just gently caressing and kissing your hair.
-He's sadistic and twisted but he still cares about you.
"Awh, are you crying? Don't like what I'm doing to you? Too fucking bad. I own every inch of your body, so scream for me bitch."
Author's Note: That feeling you get when you put lots of effort into a post but turns out it's really short :(
I'M CRYING !!
You knew the empty house in a quiet neighborhood was too good to be true, but you were so desperate to get out of your tiny apartment that you didn't care, and now you find yourself sharing space with something inhuman and immensely powerful. As you struggle to coexist with a ghost whose intentions you're unsure of, you find yourself drawn unwillingly into the upside-down world of spirits and conjurers, and becoming part of a neighborhood whose existence depends on your house staying exactly as it is, forever. But ghosts can change, just like people can. And as your feelings and your ghost's become more complex and intertwined, everything else begins to crumble. (cross-posted to Ao3)
Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Chapter 3 Chapter 4 Chapter 5 Chapter 6 Chapter 7 Chapter 8 Chapter 9 Chapter 10 Chapter 11 Chapter 12 Chapter 13 Chapter 14 Chapter 15 Chapter 16 Chapter 17 Chapter 18 Chapter 19 Chapter 20
Chapter 21
Thereâs something wrong with your house, but you knew that when you bought it. You were okay with that when you bought it, but right now the thing thatâs wrong with your house is the fact that youâre not in it. Tomura is coming home today â is home right now, in fact â but youâre not there with him. Instead youâre out to breakfast, in the same diner where you and the others plotted to kill the conjurer, with every single human in the neighborhood. Plus Inko, because why not?
You said youâre in the diner. It would be more accurate to say that youâre trapped in the diner, because youâre stuck in the corner of the booth between Shinsou and Jinâs entire family, wedged in so tightly that going out over the table or under it would be impossible. Youâve determined that this is Aizawaâs fault, so you glare at him. âThere had better be a good reason why you dragged me here.â
âItâs for your own good,â Aizawa says. âAnd for Tomuraâs, so if you claim to care about him ââ
âIf I claim to?â
âYouâll allow us to speak. We have more experience with this than you do.â
âNone of us had help,â Jinâs mom says. âWe had to figure things out by trial and error, and given the situation, we didnât think it would be fair to let you go through the same thing.â
âHelping a ghost get used to being a human is hard,â Shinsou says. âAnd getting used to being human is hard for a ghost. Weâre helping you. The other ghosts are all at your house helping him.â
âOh.â
âThey have a lot of stuff to explain,â Keigo says. âStuff you wouldnât want to explain. Like body stuff.â
âAnd hygiene stuff,â Inko adds. âTheyâre used to dematerializing any time they get dirty. Having to clean up is an adjustment.â
âItâs all an adjustment,â Aizawa says. âOur purpose here is to make the adjustment as easy as possible. Letâs begin.â
âNo, letâs order,â Keigo says. The serverâs here. âHi. Weâll need a lot more coffee than this.â
There are so many of you that ordering takes forever, and while you wait your turn, you think over the events of the last few days. You went back to work the day after you were discharged from the hospital, scared the hell out of your coworkers, and got booted out by Mr. Yagi, who insisted you go home and rest. You went to the hospital instead, hanging out in Tomuraâs room with the ghosts who were on shift. You and Hizashi spent some time formulating a backstory for Tomura, one that lines up with the lies you already told your parents, and Mr. Yagi helped you sneak the fake birth certificate into the government records. That was your first day out. On your second day out, you got to go back to work.
Work sucked. You tore through your inbox like a crazy person, trying to get as much done as possible, knowing youâd be out the whole next week and probably longer. Your progress was impeded by your coworkers, whoâd heard rumors about what happened â you and your boyfriend getting kidnapped by a serial killer â and wanted to know if they were true. Surprisingly, Nakayama came to your rescue, shooing the others off. She made it clear that the price was a tell-all happy hour later on, but you decided it was worth it to get everybody else off your back.
Tomura woke up officially last night. The ghosts went to pick him up this morning, right around when the humans dragged you out of your house. You havenât even seen him, and youâre so crabby about it that when the server asks you what youâre having today, you order half the menu on Aizawaâs dime.
Keigo manages to hold in his snickers until after the serverâs walked away. âGotta fuel up for when you get back, huh?â
âHey. Gross,â Spinner protests. âThereâs kids here.â
âNah, Iâm kidding. I saw what he looks like now. Too much exertion would probably kill him.â Keigo tips a huge wink at you and you roll your eyes. âAnyway, I officially call this meeting of ghost friends anonymous to order. Who wants to start?â
âProbably one of you two,â Jin says, gesturing at Inko and Aizawa. âYou all have the same kind of ghost.â
Inko and Aizawa trade a glance, and Inko speaks up first. âBe prepared for a lot of frustration on Tomuraâs part,â she says. âMost ghosts permanently embody themselves into healthy forms, so itâs likely that heâll perceive some unfairness, and possibly express some regret. Itâs got much less to do with you than with the adjustment to living as a human, so try not to take it personally.â
âYeah, donât take anything personally,â Jin agrees. âHimiko bit us a lot at first. For, like, no reason.â
You try to imagine Tomura biting you for no reason, and canât. âRemember,â Aizawa says, âTomura wouldnât have been capable of permanent embodiment unless it was what he truly wanted. That doesnât mean adjusting to it will be easy.â
âLike Takami says, the physical stuff is hard to explain,â Shinsou says. He grimaces. âBut even just the rules of being human are a lot for them to figure out. Theyâve been watching us all follow the rules, but theyâve never had to do it themselves, and theyâre still them. They still donât get a lot of the stuff we do. Heâs gonna ask a lot of questions. And heâs gonna complain.â
âMagne had this thing about crosswalks,â Spinner says. âAlso about clothes. She still has a thing about clothes. She thinks she can wear whatever she wants, wherever she wants, whenever she wants, as long as the important bits are covered up. I donât really know how to explain that you just canât do some stuff.â
You sort of like Magneâs donât-give-a-fuck attitude about it, but you can see how it would cause trouble. âThe more power they had before they embodied themselves, the less attentive they are to social norms or boundaries,â Aizawa says. âBehavior in public is something to be watchful of. A public indecency charge is not something you want to incur.â
Heâs scowling in a way that says this piece of advice is coming out of personal experience. You canât decide if you want to hear the full story or if you never want to think about it again. âI mean, I think youâve done sort of a good job training him on this stuff already,â Keigo says. âHeâs got some social skills.â
You feel like he might be giving Tomura a little too much credit. âLike three social skills.â
âThatâs three more than Dabiâs got,â Spinner points out, which shouldnât really make you feel better but does anyway. âI hung out with him more than anybody except her, and heâs not that bad. Itâll probably get harder once you two start going out in public, but heâs not starting at zero. Heâs at like â level three.â
âOne level for every social skill,â Shinsou says, and snickers. âNice.â
âI think the larger problem is overstimulation,â Jinâs mom says, and it takes all your self-control not to start in with some really inappropriate thoughts. âHowever theyâve been perceiving through their senses when theyâre embodied, itâs much more intense when the embodimentâs permanent â at least from what we saw with Himiko.â
âIn general, they struggle with one sense more than the others,â Aizawa says. âFor Eri it was taste.â
âHimiko, too,â Jinâs mom confirms. âThat might have been what the biting was about. She also struggled with smell, which makes sense, since taste and smell are fairly connected. What about Magne, Spinner?â
âSight for sure,â Spinner says. âLight sensitivity, color sensitivity, everything. She sees colors the rest of us donât even know exist. Itâs cool. But it sucked at first.â
âFor Hizashi it was hearing,â Aizawa adds. âGhosts are able to hear in multiple dimensions, and his hearing was particularly sensitive as a ghost. It took him two years to be able to go without noise-canceling headphones outside.â
You have a feeling you already know what Tomuraâs oversensitivity is going to be. Given the number of contact allergies heâs already displayed and what he was like as a ghost, physical touch is going to be a big problem. Itâs so daunting to think of that it pushes you into asking your first real question of the day. âHow did you help them cope with it?â
âPatience,â Inko says.
You thought that was a given. âTime,â Jinâs mom adds.
âSpace,â Aizawa says, and everyone nods. âNow, for the first few weeks ââ
You knew helping Tomura adapt to being human wasnât going to be easy, but as the ghost friends outline all the things you hadnât even considered, you begin to grasp just how hard itâs going to be. Every last ghost did damage to their relationship with their human, or humans, while they were trying to adjust. Every human had more than a few moments of thinking how much easier it would have been for their ghost to stay a ghost. Even Hizashi and Mr. Yagi, who were the most intentional about their embodiments, had days where they made living with them feel impossible. Youâre glad everyone is being honest with you, thankful that they arenât sugarcoating it, but your stomach is tying itself in a knot.
Tomuraâs embodiment wasnât just an adjustment, it was a last resort to avoid being sucked back into the world between. And it almost didnât work. If even the ghosts who wanted this were nightmares to live with at first, whatâs going to happen with him? Nobody can answer that for you, or tell you how to cope with however many times Tomura will probably tell you that he wishes the two of you had never met. All they can tell you is the same three things: Patience, time, and space.
To be fair to the ghost friends, they highlight the fun stuff, too. Spinner talks about taking Magne to a museum for the first time, and to a mall. Jin and his family turned themselves into foodies so they could try everything alongside Himiko. Even before Shinsou and Eri were adopted, Shinsou taught himself to make candy apples, because Eri had seen them on TV and wanted to try them. Aizawa, looking as calm and reflective as youâve ever seen him, talks about taking Hizashi to movies, to concerts, to the opera, and watching him hear things as they were meant to be heard for the first time. Inko, smiling broadly, tells you about when she was pregnant, and Mr. Yagiâs reaction the first time he put his hand on her stomach and felt Izuku kick.
âHe looked like heâd seen a ghost,â she says, laughing. âHe didnât know babies did that.â
Keigo is laughing, too. You picture Mr. Yagiâs startled expression, the one youâve seen so many times right before he starts coughing blood, and find it in yourself to smile. âTheyâre still themselves underneath it all,â Inko says. âEven if it takes time to see.â
Itâs quiet for a moment. Most of the plates are empty, including yours. Youâve been eating steadily just to have something to do with your hands. âThereâs one more thing,â Keigo says. âStronger ghosts keep some of their powers when they embody permanently. According to Touya, Tomura kept a lot of his. He can still read auras, like they all can, but he can project a pretty strong aura all on his own. And he can still drain stuff, even if he canât do anything with the life-force. So far itâs looking like he needs to touch something with all five fingers for it to happen, and since itâs not anything close to a natural human ability, he has to really want to destroy it. Just keep an eye on him if he starts to get mad.â
âOkay,â you say. âWhat else?â
âWeâre happy for you,â Shinsou says, and Inko nods, smiling still. Everybodyâs smiling, now that you notice it. âItâs a big thing. And itâs a good thing. Now youâre really part of the neighborhood.â
You could be. You can be, now that you and Tomura can both leave if you want to. For a moment, hope begins to tug at you â but then you remember what Keigo said, and what everybody else said about patience, space, and time. Itâll be a long time before the two of you can be part of anything. And probably a long time before the two of you are a two of you again, too. Aizawaâs phone buzzes, and he looks at it. âTheyâre finishing up over there. We should head back, too.â
He heads to the cash register to pay the bill, and the rest of you work on extricating yourselves from the booth. You wince as you stand up, feeling your stitches pull. Keigo notices. âHow are you holding up?â
âIâll live.â
âDonât push yourself too hard with this stuff,â Keigo says. He gestures awkwardly at his broken arm with the other. âItâs a lot to bounce back from. Iâm here when you need to talk. Like I have been.â
âSame here,â you say, and Keigo smiles. âAnd, um â thanks for taking over with the kids, during the fight. I had to try.â
âIt was a pretty good try,â Keigo says magnanimously. âYou ran a fire poker right through that guyâs chest. Remind me not to piss you off.â
âYou know, I think your house is still the scariest house in the neighborhood,â Jin muses. âI figured Dabiâs house or Aizawaâs was going to take over, but nope. Tomura still has a bunch of his powers and you almost killed two guys. Youâre the scariest for sure.â
The scariest house in the neighborhood, and now youâre part of the reason why itâs scary. The list of things that make you feel better these days is short and weird, and Jinâs statement gets added almost instantly. âThanks.â
You all carpooled in the Bubaigawara van, and Jinâs mom parks it in front of her own house, allowing everybody else to spill out onto the sidewalk. You and Keigo and Aizawa are last out, and as you get your feet under you, you notice a lot of ghosts milling around in front of your house. In front of it, not inside the fence. You make your way over, stumbling a little bit. âDid he kick you out?â
âNah, we left. Figured he needed some processing time,â Hizashi says. Heâs looking past you, at Aizawa. âHey, what are you doing walking around? Youâre supposed to rest your leg.â
Himiko skips up to you, towing Eri and Izuku after her. âItâs all fine,â she tells you, smiling. âHe understands everything and we gave him some of everybodyâs clothes until he can buy his own.â
âHe looks even more like me now!â Eri is bouncing from foot to foot. âHeâs going to come over to our house.â
âOh.â You wonder if Tomura actually meant it, or if he just said it so sheâd leave him alone. âThatâs â nice.â
âYouâre invited, too,â Eri assures you. Then she, like Hizashi, looks over your shoulder. âDad! Hitoshi!â
Himiko peels off to meet Jin, leaving you with Izuku, whoâs watching the house. âTomuraâs still really powerful,â he says. âEven when heâs human the aura is still there. Dad says he could probably take on a strong conjurer, even like this.â
âWhat else did your dad say?â
âThatâs for you to ask Tomura yourself,â Mr. Yagi says, drawing up alongside Izuku. He smiles at you. âIâve cleared your schedule next week. Let me know if you need more time.â
âAnd call if you need anything,â Inko reiterates. She takes Mr. Yagiâs hand and wraps an arm around Izukuâs shoulders. âCome over for dinner when youâre ready.â
âYes!â Izuku looks way too happy at the thought. âI have lots of questions for both of you!â
You decide youâll wait a while to take them up on that invitation, but theyâre not the only ones who stop to talk to you specifically. Each of the ghosts stops by briefly, all of them reassuring you that Tomuraâs fine. Youâre not going to believe them until you see it for yourself.
Finally, Aizawa and Hizashi are all thatâs left. Aizawa hands you a book â another one of his. You read the cover out loud and snicker. âWhat To Expect When Your Ghost Embodies Itself? Great title.â
âItâs a little boring,â Hizashi says, and you realize he doesnât get the joke. Aizawa is smirking slightly. âGood stuff in there, though.â
âIt covers everything we discussed earlier, and a little more,â Aizawa says. âGood luck.â
âYou probably wonât be up to it, but come over later if you want,â Hizashi says. âThat conjurer ruined our Halloween, so weâre throwing a make-up party at our place. Costumes mandatory.â
Thereâs no way youâre making it to that party. You thank them for the invitation anyway, tuck the book under your arm, and step through the front gate into your yard. Up the front steps, through the unlocked door, into the front hall. Some part of you is expecting Tomura to materialize in front of you, but he canât do that anymore. âIâm home,â you call out, and Phantom comes scrabbling across the floor towards you, wagging her tail. You greet her, then pick her up. âTomura?â
âIn here.â
Heâs home. Your heart leaps so hard and fast it seems a little ridiculous, and you hurry into the living room to see him. Heâs there, sitting on his usual couch cushion, wearing some bizarre mix of clothing from every guy in the neighborhood, plus a pair of socks that could only have come from Himiko. The urge to launch yourself at him, to climb all over him like heâs done to you so many times and prove to yourself that heâs alive and heâs safe, is overpowering. But you remember what the others said. Patience, time, space. You donât want to overwhelm him. You set Phantom down on the couch next to him and take a few steps back, keeping a respectful distance.
Itâs quiet for a while. You break the silence. âHow do you feel?â
He has the hood of his hoodie up, throwing his face into shadow. âLike shit.â
Thatâs about what you were expecting. You need more detail if youâre going to help, but you donât want to push him. âDid everything go okay at the hospital?â
His shoulders lift, then fall. You see him grimace. âIt was weird. All that stuff they did. The stupid paperwork is over there if you want to look at it.â
âOkay.â Before, when he wasnât human, youâd have helped yourself. Now â âDo you want me to look at it?â
Another shrug. If he didnât want you to, heâd say no, right? You pick the folder up off the coffee table and open it to the discharge summary, which is a mistake. The list of injuries Tomura came in with is staggering. Seeing this, youâre amazed they only kept him in for five days. âWell?â Tomura asks.
You set the folder down. âYou healed up really fast.â
âThere are things wrong with me,â Tomura says. One hand rises to scratch his neck. âMy skin is messed up. Iâm â allergic.â
âI have allergy medicine for stuff like that. And itch cream.â
âThey gave me some.â Tomura still hasnât taken down his hood. âWhat did the humans want?â
âThey wanted to tell me how to help you adjust,â you say, and Tomura makes a derisive sound. Phantom stirs, whines, and noses closer to him. âWhat did the ghosts want with you?â
âTo explain.â The derision is obvious in Tomuraâs voice. âLike Iâm stupid or something.â
âYou arenât. They donât think that,â you say, only to realize that Tomura still probably knows what the other ghosts are thinking better than you do. âThey probably donât want you to make the same mistakes as they did. From what the humans were saying, they all made a lot of mistakes.â
âThey almost scared their humans off.â Tomuraâs voice goes weirdly flat. âI already did that.â
âWhat?â
âI didnât know what I look like. When I saw the picture on the ID, that was the first time.â Tomura seems to sink further into his hoodie, and suddenly you understand why he hasnât taken down the hood. âNo wonder you didnât want me embodied. Youâd have to look at me all the time.â
âTomura ââ
âI just wanted to stay. I didnât want to go back. I thought it would be the same, but itâs not,â Tomura says. Thereâs a weird strain in his voice now, one youâve never heard from him but know intimately yourself. âThere are things wrong with me. Iâm ugly. You wanted me when I was a ghost and I was powerful, not when Iâm human and weak. You wonât even come near me.â
âNo,â you say, and Tomura scoffs. âNo! When I was talking to the others, they said itâs hard to get used to a human body â stuff might be harder to cope with now that itâs permanent â they said I should give you time and space ââ
âI didnât do this so I could have time and space!â Tomuraâs still got enough power to rattle the walls without raising his voice. âI did it so I could â so we ââ
His voice breaks. Phantom edges closer to him and he shies away, both hands coming up to cover his face at odd angles. You stand there for a moment, paralyzed by the decision between everything the other ghost friends told you and what Tomuraâs saying now, what heâs doing now. But in the end itâs not a decision at all. You hurry around the coffee table, move Phantom to the cushion at the far end of the couch, and sit down right next to Tomura, getting in his space without asking the same way he always does to you. You pry his hands away from his face one at a time, and he fights you. Heâs fighting you with a fraction of his strength and you both know it. âLet go. I donât want you. I donât want your pity ââ
âItâs not pity,â you say. He lets you have one of his hands and you immediately try for the other. âI donât know what this is like for you. Iâm trying to do the right thing, but I should have just asked you what you needed. I can do better.â
âYou donât want to. You donât want this!â He pulls his hand free of yours to gesture at himself. âI know what you wanted. You wanted ââ
âYou.â You donât even have to think before you answer. âI wanted you. I want you.â
He stares at you from between his fingers. You give up on trying to free his hands and press in close against his side. He startles at your touch, but doesnât shy away. He smells like the hospital. His voice is quiet, shaky, strained. âYou liked when I was cold.â
âIt was nice. But Iâve got AC. And now I can hold you for as long as I want without getting frostbite.â
âYou liked that I got rid of the bugs.â
âIâm still making you get rid of the bugs,â you say, and Tomura makes a sound thatâs too watery to be laughter. âBut I can get rid of my own, too. I had a whole plan for that hornetsâ nest.â
âYour plan sucked.â It did sort of suck, looking back. Tomuraâs voice is quieter when he speaks again. âYou liked when I was stronger than you.â
âYouâre still stronger than me.â You can feel it when you touch him, a faint thread of power vibrating just beneath his skin. âThatâs not the important stuff.â
âWhat is?â
âEverything else,â you say. âYouâre still you, Tomura. It might feel different to be in the world like this, but youâre still who you are. Thatâs who I want. Who I love.â
Itâs quiet for a long time. âYou liked the way I looked before.â
Itâs a weird enough thing to say to startle a laugh out of you. âThe way you look now is how youâve always looked, Tomura. Your hairâs a different color, thatâs all.â
âI always looked like this.â Tomura sounds skeptical. âYou said I was pretty.â
âYou are pretty.â You reach for the edges of his hood and his hands come up, grasping your wrists, holding you still. He holds you there for a few seconds, then lets go, and lets you pull down the hood.
Itâs him. Those same features you saw outlined in steam in the bathroom, on your back porch with the ashes of a hornetsâ nest at his feet. The same red eyes that have watched you for almost two years, that have catalogued every inch of you, that looked up into yours after the gateway to the world between slammed shut for the last time. Youâve seen all his expressions before, except this one: The way he looks when heâs been crying. As you watch, his pupils open and shut, and more tears slip down his cheeks.
You scramble to wipe them away, cradling his face in your hands. He flinches when your palm gently meets his cheek, and you draw back, only for him to catch your wrist and press your hand hard against his skin. That feels normal enough to make you smile. Tomuraâs never been shy about pulling you around. âYouâre pretty,â you say again. âYouâve never looked any different than this. I like it. I donât care if you do. I donât care about anything except that youâre home.â
âBut ââ
âThe next words out of your mouth had better not be âDabi saidâ.â
An aggrieved silence falls, and you find yourself struggling not to laugh. It feels normal. It feels like any weird little argument you and Tomura have had, except that he canât dematerialize to teach you a lesson and you canât end the fight just by stepping outside. âYou love me,â Tomura ventures after a while. âLike this?â
âDonât be stupid,â you say. âOf course I do.â
Tomura knocks you over a second later.
Cuddling on the couch is more complicated than it used to be, mainly because Tomuraâs a long way from being used to what touch feels like in a truly human form and he canât get comfortable the way he usually would. If he can barely stand to stretch out on top of you, thereâs no way he can handle kissing, and you can tell that the overload of sensation doesnât turn him on so much as it fries his brain. Not that that stops him from trying to kiss you more. âTake it easy,â you say. âYou just got home. I donât want to take you back to the hospital because you tried to kiss me and had a heart attack.â
âThat doesnât happen,â Tomura says with confidence. Then, as you watch, you see him start to doubt himself. Some how heâs less sure about humans now that he is one. âDoes it?â
âIt could.â You remember something from a few days ago about how too much exertion on not enough calories could damage Tomuraâs heart, and he still feels way too thin. âCan you reach your discharge papers? I want to read them.â
He reaches out to grab them from the coffee table, but itâs ever so slightly too far away. Before heâd dematerialize one hand, snatch them, and bring them back. Now he just glares at them and keeps glaring â and as you watch in some mix of surprise and horror, the folder lifts from the table and drops to the ground next to the couch.
Tomura realizes youâre staring at him and smirks. âI never said all my powers were gone.â
Now that heâs realized you still love him, heâs cocky, but youâre not annoyed about it. Youâre not going to forget what it was like when you got home, what it was like to see him cry, and youâre not dumb enough to think today will be the last time it comes up. Tomura flops down again, his head against your chest, and you pick up his discharge papers and flip through them. Sure enough, thereâs one specific instruction highlighted and in bold type. âNo intense physical activity until youâre cleared by a doctor,â you say. Tomura scowls. You keep reading. âYour follow-upâs in two weeks. Itâs not that long.â
âMaybe if we go slow ââ
âNo.â You set the papers down and trace over one tendon in his neck, wincing as he twitches and writhes and digs his knees and elbows into every soft body part you possess. Heâs lying on top of all your stitches, and itâs starting to hurt. âYou can barely handle being touched at all right now. Iâm not going to send you back to the hospital and Iâm not going to melt your brain.â
âItâs my brain. I get to decide ââ
âYou donât get to leave me,â you say, and Tomura looks up, startled. âTwo weeks.â
Tomura studies you for a moment. Then he flops down again. âFine. Two weeks. But then I get to â what happened? Why did you make that noise?â
You tried not to. Really. But one of the too-prominent points of Tomuraâs ribcage just dug directly into one of your largest wounds, and you think you might have popped a stitch. Tomura sits up, pulls you with him, starts yanking at your shirt. âI want to see. Let me see ââ
Your shirt turns to dust in an instant. You didnât realize Tomura could do that to things that werenât alive, and you sit there, bemused. Tomura is staring at you, eyes blazing with fury. âMy marks,â he says, and you nod. It occurs to you that this is the first time heâs seen the extent of your injuries. âHow did he take them out?â
âOne at a time. With a knife.â You try to make light of it, try to sound like it isnât haunting you, like waking up in a hospital bed after it was all over didnât scare you so badly that you had to be sedated. âNot my best Monday ever.â
âDonât joke about it.â Tomuraâs voice is hard. âHe hurt you so much you wanted to die. I should have killed him slower. It should have taken exactly as long as this did.â
You wrap your arms around yourself, trying to cover up the worst of the wounds. The doctors who treated you had decent poker faces, but since youâve gotten home, youâve gone out of your way to avoid getting a good look at what happened. Tomuraâs expression as he looks at you tells you everything you need to know about how bad it is. âI havenât even had them for a week yet,â you say. Your voice sounds thin. âThey wonât look like this forever.â
Tomuraâs jaw clenches. âI donât care what they look like. I care that they hurt.â
You donât know what to say to that. You sit there numbly and Tomura watches you, clearly thinking something over but not doing it, whatever it is. âI canât,â he starts frustrated. âI canât do the thing I want to do anymore. When I wasnât materialized I could ââ
He makes a gesture, and suddenly you understand what he means. You crawl forward across the couch into his arms, and he wraps himself around you. Itâs not like it was before. He canât enfold you completely like he used to, fitting like a second skin. But now youâve got something solid to lean against, someone whoâs warm like you are, someone who maybe understands how you feel about this whole thing. Tomuraâs hugs were always a little awkward, even when he was fully materialized. He didnât understand what was comfortable and what wasnât, why youâd be at ease in one position but not in another, and heâd complain when you tried to adjust. Tomuraâs not complaining now. He adjusts with you, and once youâre settled, you try not to move too much. Itâs weird. But itâs the kind of weird you can get used to.
âYou smell nice,â Tomura says after a little while. He unwraps one arm from around you and sniffs his own armpit. Then he makes a face. âI smell weird.â
âYou smell like the hospital,â you say. âWe can fix that. Want to shower?â
Tomura gives you a suspicious look. âIâm not allowed in the bathroom while youâre in there.â
âThat was before.â You think over the events of the last week. Heâs already seen you naked. The two of you have had sex. Heâs your boyfriend, and heâs human. Whatever objections you had, they arenât valid anymore. âThe rules still apply if either of us is using the toilet, but we can shower together. If you want. Do you want to?â
âDonât be stupid,â Tomura says, which means yes. âI thought youâd never let me.â
There are a lot of things you thought would never happen, and a lot of them happened in the last week. You pull yourself out of Tomuraâs arms reluctantly and lead him up the stairs.
You check over your wound care instructions and Tomuraâs as he gets undressed. Everything looks about the same for both of you. You also take the opportunity to go over the list of known allergens the doctors gave you yesterday. Almost all your soaps and shower products meet the criteria already â low to no scent, hypoallergenic, no harsh chemicals. You set out an extra towel and an extra sponge and lay down a bath mat, then turn on the water.
Since you met Tomura youâve been taking hot showers, but they can be hard on skin, and you donât want Tomura to faint. You opt for warm water instead, take off your own clothes, and inspect your stitches for a moment before stepping into the shower. The spot Tomura elbowed by accident looks unhappy, but the coarse black stitches havenât come undone. Seeing them makes you feel sick. You look away and step into the shower, leaving the door cracked for Tomura to follow you in.
Thereâs room for both of you inside, but itâs a close fit. You have a feeling that you and Tomura will be having a discussion about the impracticality of shower sex at some point in the future, but thatâs not for today. You switch positions carefully with Tomura so that heâs under the majority of the spray and watch him startle as it patters against his skin. You wonder what heâs thinking.
Youâve spent a lot of time wondering what Tomuraâs thinking since you met him, but it occurs to you that you can ask. âWhatâs going on up there?â
âItâs â so much. Loud. But not loud. It feels like â a lot.â Tomuraâs hair is plastered to his face from the water. He pushes it out of his eyes. âIâm fine. I donât want to get out.â
âWe wonât get out,â you promise. âTake the time you need.â
He twists this way and that under the spray, working on getting used to it. Heâs got stitches, too, all of them taken with the same coarse thread as yours. âNow what?â
You pick up a bottle of shampoo. The mild kind. âPut this in your hair and sort of scrub it around, then rinse it out,â you explain. Tomura brushes his hair out of his eyes again, looking vaguely skeptical. âOr I can do it for you.â
âYou.â
You should have known heâd answer like that. Heâs got enough of a height advantage on you that youâre going to need him to sit down for this to work, and there are an awkward few minutes while the two of you get settled. You lean back against the wall, and Tomura leans back against your chest, head tipped forward. âMake sure you close your eyes,â you say. âThis will sting if it gets in them.â
Tomura nods without looking up. You pour some shampoo into your hand and get to work.
His hair is tangled, like always. Worse than always, because heâs been materialized this entire time, and he hasnât brushed it at all. You forget about washing his hair for a second in favor of detangling it, and Tomura slumps back against you. âYouâre still doing that now that Iâm here all the time? I thought youâd stop.â
âDo you want me to stop?â
âNo,â Tomura says quickly. You return your attention to the knot youâre working through. âI thought it was just because I was a ghost.â
Huh. âWhat other things do you think I was only doing because you were a ghost?â
The answer, it turns out, is a lot of things. If Tomura had asked any of the other ghosts about them, he wouldnât have had to worry, but they probably would have told him not to be stupid, which is probably why he didnât ask. No wonder he was upset when you got back, if he thought he was losing so many things â sleeping on top of you, sitting on your lap, having his hair played with, being held. He names gesture after gesture as you untangle his hair, and you reassure him about each one.
Once youâve worked through all the knots, you move on to washing Tomuraâs hair in earnest. You donât think youâre doing a very good job, but when your fingers slow their progress, Tomura complains in a voice that sounds distinctly sleepy. âDonât. Itâs nice.â
You add conditioner, too. Tomura probably wonât bother with it in the future, but you might as well give him soft hair while you can get away with it. Then you shake him out of relaxation and help him to his feet to wash off. Heâs sort of floppy when heâs tired, and although you can already tell that itâll annoy you sometimes, right now itâs just cute. Thereâs no way youâre telling him heâs cute. You hand him a sponge and some soap and put him in charge of washing his front. Youâll take care of his back.
The fight left Tomura beaten up all over, but his back took a lot of damage while he was caught between the living world and the world between, and itâs where the majority of his stitches are. Even looking at them upsets you. You canât help but think that if youâd been faster to get to him, if youâd been stronger, if youâd called the others to help you instead of waiting for them to come on their own, he wouldnât have spent so long trapped between worlds. He wouldnât have been hurt like this. But thatâs only the last set of mistakes you made. If youâd killed his conjurer like you meant to, heâd still be a ghost, and thereâd be no marks on him at all.
âHey.â Tomura glances over his shoulder at you, and you realize that your hands have gone still. You duck closer, hiding your face, and go back to washing, but Tomuraâs not fooled. You keep forgetting, somehow, that he knows you as well as you know him. âDonât make that face. Youâre just a human. What were you supposed to do?â
âKill him.â Your voice wavers. âSo you could be human because you wanted to. Not because you didnât have a choice.â
âDonât be stupid,â Tomura says. He turns to face you, and when you donât look up, his hand rises to hold your jaw and tilt it upward. âIf I was just doing it to avoid going back, it wouldnât have worked. I wanted to be like this.â
You know that, but â âI wish I hadnât let you get hurt.â
âYeah, and I wish I hadnât let my conjurer torture you.â Tomura gives you a few seconds of protesting that characterization of events before he springs his trap. âSee how dumb it sounds when I say it? It sounds dumber from you, since youâre the human and it wasnât even your job. You told me the stupid plan the others had. You were never supposed to do it.â
He pauses for a moment. âI guess it would have worked if Iâd been materialized, though. Dabi saw you stab him. He said it was kind of hot.â
Your mind goes sort of blank at the sheer weirdness of that statement. âAnd heâs still alive because?â
âI can kill him whenever I want to,â Tomura says. He turns away again, and you go back to washing off the unstitched parts of his skin, shaking your head in bemusement. âI bet it was really hot.â
Tomura thinks the fact that you ran his conjurer through with a fire poker is hot. Thatâs probably a good thing, because youâre not sorry you did it. You rest your forehead against the back of his neck for a second, resisting the urge to kiss him, and note that his pale skin is turning pink and flushed from the water. The waterâs not that warm. You should probably get him out of here sooner rather than later. Inko warned you that newly embodied ghosts arenât aware of the physical sensations that proceed things like throwing up or passing out, and youâd really prefer for Tomura not to faint in here.
Tomura complains about having to get out, but you remind him that showering is something humans have to do regularly and shoo him out anyway. You stay in a little longer to wash up, then step out into a mildly steamy bathroom. For a moment youâre cast back into the memory of the first time you saw Tomura face to face â in this bathroom, outlined by the steam, looking you up and down with a smile you couldnât identify as creepy or not. Thinking about it now, you know it wasnât creepy. He was proud of himself for figuring out how to make himself visible, proud that you could see him at last. Standing here more than a year later, itâs hard to believe how much has changed.
There are puddles of water down the hall on the way to the bedroom, evidence that while Tomuraâs figured out showering, he hasnât figured out drying off. When you step into your room, you find more evidence in the form of a pile of wet clothes discarded on the ground. Jinâs mom said that the ghosts have to learn by experience sometimes. You glance towards the bed and find Tomura sitting on it, dressed in a pair of pink sweatpants of unknown provenance and â âUm, is that my shirt?â
âYeah.â Tomura gives you that dumbest-person-ever look. Youâre not thrilled to see that itâs survived his embodiment. âIt was right there. It fits.â
You buy your pajama shirts almost comically oversized, and Tomuraâs not all that much taller than you. Something thatâs huge on you is still pretty big on him. It fits, but itâs the principle of the thing. âDidnât the others give you clothes?â
âYeah. They didnât smell right.â Tomura pulls the collar of the shirt up over his nose and mouth and breathes in. âThis one smells like you.â
You were never into stealing your boyfriendâs hoodies, back when you had human boyfriends. You donât love wearing other peopleâs clothes. But apparently there has to be at least one clothing thief in every relationship, and Tomuraâs taken over the role. Tomura yawns so widely that his jaw pops, then recoils. âWhat was that? Why did I do that?â
âThatâs a yawn. Youâre tired.â You were thinking about street clothes, but just like you did the last time you and Tomura were in this room together, you opt for pajamas instead. âI could go for a nap, too.â
You climb into bed on your usual side, leaving the door cracked open for Phantom in case she comes up, and Tomura gets awkwardly into bed on the other side. âHow do I do it?â
âDo what?â
âSleep.â
Right â heâs spent the last week either in an induced coma or heavily sedated. He hasnât had the chance yet to fall asleep naturally. âGet comfortable,â you say, and Tomura, semi-predictably, abandons his side of the bed in favor of getting in your personal space. âNow close your eyes. Youâre tired, so I bet your eyelids feel kind of heavy, right? Let them close. Think about stuff if you want to think about it, or donât think about anything. Itâll happen on its own.â
âThat sounds too easy,â Tomura mumbles, half-asleep already. âSometimes it takes you forever.â
âSometimes itâs harder than others,â you admit. âItâs pretty easy right now. Just relax.â
Tomura mumbles something else, but you can feel the tension leaving his body, until heâs relaxed save for the icy thread of ghostly power running through him. Itâs faint, but you have the sense that thatâs illusory, at least a little bit. Tomura might be permanently embodied now, but heâs the most powerful of the embodied ghosts, and probably still the least human. He canât dematerialize anymore and he needs to eat and sleep, but it feels likely that the effect of his powers on your daily life wonât change too much.
But you can figure that out later. Right now heâs asleep next to you, his red eyes closed, his lips parted slightly, warm and breathing and undeniably alive. The same kind of alive as you are, finally. For good.
You shift a little closer to him, and his arm wraps around you tightly. Thatâs fine with you. You close your eyes and fall asleep almost as fast as he did.
When you wake up, itâs to the sound of your phone buzzing, startling you out of a nightmare. You have all kinds of material for nightmares now, and your subconscious has been mixing and matching it in increasingly horrible combinations for the last few nights â or afternoons, since you can tell by the light coming through the window that sunset is a ways off. You reach for your phone, desperate for a distraction, and Tomuraâs arms tighten around you. He sounds like heâs mostly asleep when he speaks. âNo.â
âIâm not leaving,â you say. You get ahold of your phone and flip it to silent before reading the texts. Theyâre from Shinsou.
Shinsou: are u guys coming or not
Shinsou: everybody else is
Shinsou: Eri says you have to or sheâll cry
Shinsou: she says Tomura promised
She mentioned something about that earlier. You shake Tomuraâs shoulder. âDid you promise Eri youâd come to the party?â
âNo.â Thereâs a pause. âShe wouldnât leave until I said yes.â
Great. âHow much do you care about making her cry?â
âI donât care,â Tomura mumbles. You wait. âShe backed me up in the fight. I owe her.â
âSo we have to go,â you realize. The idea is less upsetting to you now than it was when you first heard about it, namely because you just had a nightmare and you donât want to go back to bed. You text Shinsou back. Your dad said itâs a costume party. Do we have to have costumes?
Yeah. Shinsou sends a shrugging emoji. Not serious ones. One of my dads is going all out and the other one just has cat ears on.
Aizawa can get away with just cat ears â heâs the one hosting the party. You and Tomura are going to have to come up with something a little better. Shinsou texts again. It starts in an hour. Be there. You really donât want Eri to cry.
Youâd feel really bad making Eri cry, especially now that you remember her helping Tomura during the fight â and saving your life just beforehand. You start to sit up, and Tomura drags you back down. âNo. I like sleeping. I want to sleep.â
âHumans sleep every night,â you remind him. âYou can go back to sleep later. Right now we have to go to a party.â
It takes a while to drag Tomura out of bed â twenty minutes at least, leaving you with forty minutes to come up with some kind of costume. You get in your own way a little bit when you realize how cute Tomura looks with bedhead, then order yourself to pull it together. Tomura canât shadow you as closely as he did when he could dematerialize, but he still gives it his best shot, and you two end up colliding and tripping on each other â and on Phantom â way more than is actually necessary. After ransacking your house for costume ideas and coming up with nothing, you finally turn to Google for help.
Tomura reads over your shoulder. âThese are dumb. I thought Halloween was supposed to be scary.â
âIt is,â you say. You decide to get into the part of Halloween thatâs supposed to be sexy later â later, as in next year. Or never. âThis is the wrong neighborhood for scary, though. No matter what I dress up as, I wonât be scarier than everybody else who lives here.â
And thatâs when it clicks for you, oddly enough â it clicks, and you canât help but laugh. The perfect low-effort Halloween costume. How did you not think of it before? Tomura eyes you suspiciously. âWhy are you laughing?â
âI have an idea. It might get us kicked out.â
âIf we get kicked out, we can come back and go to sleep again,â Tomura says. Introducing Tomura to the concept of naptime may have been a mistake. âWhat is it?â
You head for the stairs, and the linen closet. âYouâll see.â
It takes you approximately two seconds to assemble the first costume, and once you do, you show Tomura. It occurs to you way too late that he might think itâs offensive. But once he realizes what you are, he cracks up laughing â then wincing, as the laughter strains the stitches on his back. âTheyâre going to hate it,â he says. âI bet they wonât even let us in.â
âIf they donât let us in, then we get to go home right away.â You gesture at the linen closet. âPick your poison.â
It takes you a few more minutes to leave, mostly because Tomura insists on bringing Phantom, and Phantom needs a costume, too. Sheâs a lot less into her costume than you and Tomura are. She keeps wiggling out of it, and while Tomura tries to lure her back under the sheet, you peer out the front window. The street still looks like hell. Everybodyâs houses are still at least partially wrecked. If you drove past this neighborhood, not knowing anything about who lives here and why this happened, youâd avoid it like the plague.
You watch as Keigo and Dabi and Natsu leave their house. Natsu looks like heâs wearing normal clothes, but Keigo has a fake halo and Dabi has a pair of devil horns on. It occurs to you that Dabi might be the only other person in the neighborhood who thinks your costume is funny.
âI got her to wear it,â Tomura says, and you turn to look. Thereâs Phantom, wearing a flower-patterned pillowcase with holes cut out for her ears, eyes, and nose â and thereâs Tomura, wearing a grey sheet over her head with holes cut out so he can see. âI think sheâs mad at me.â
âSheâs not mad,â you say. Youâre pretty sure sheâll forgive you both when she realizes youâre headed over to Aizawaâs house. Shinsou is probably her favorite person other than Tomura. âYou look pretty.â
Tomura gives you a once-over. Your sheet is lavender, and you accessorized with a pair of reading glasses you accidentally stole from Mr. Yagiâs office and never gave back. âCute,â he decides. âThe sooner they kick us out, the sooner we can come back.â
He heads for the door, opens it, and steps outside. You gather up Phantomâs leash and follow him onto the porch. When you turn to lock the door, Tomura stops you. His eyes crinkle at the corners, the way they do when heâs smiling creepily on purpose. âDonât bother,â he says. âThis neighborhood is still mine.â
âIâll take your word for it.â You tuck your keys back into your pocket and make your way down the front steps, to the front gate, and out onto the sidewalk. Itâs not until you hear the gateâs hinges creak open again that you realize Tomura hasnât followed you. You turn back. âTomura?â
Tomuraâs hesitating on the far side of the property line. You canât figure out why. Heâs left before. He was away from the house for five days â but not by choice. The ambulance took him away and the other ghosts brought him back, but in all the time since he was summoned, Tomuraâs never left the property of his own free will. You hold out the hand that isnât grasping Phantomâs leash, and he comes closer to take it. His hand is warm.
Warm, and a little sweaty. Heâs nervous. âWe donât have to go to this thing,â you tell him. âYou just got home today. Itâs a lot. If youâd rather stay home, we can.â
âYou want to go.â
âI think it might be fun.â Mostly you want to see what Hizashi does when you roll up to his party dressed like the worldâs most stereotypical, low-budget ghost. âBut I still like itâs best when itâs just us. If you donât want to go, we wonât. Iâm not leaving you.â
âBecause you love me,â Tomura says, almost hesitantly. You nod. âI love you, too.â
Itâs a good thing youâve got the sheet on. Youâre not sure you want Tomura to see the goofy smile youâre wearing. Tomura raises his free hand and touches your mouth through the sheet, feeling along the curve of it until you dare to kiss the tips of his fingers. He startles, and you remember the touch sensitivity. Itâs fine when heâs the one initiating contact, since heâs the one who decides what he can handle, but you need to be careful. âSorry.â
âDonât be stupid,â Tomura says. He kisses you.
Itâs not a great kiss, given that there are two layers of cotton between your mouth and his, but youâll take it. Youâve always been willing to take what you can get from Tomura, and youâve gotten more than you ever expected. It came at a price, sure. Youâll be paying that price in one way and another for the rest of your life, but itâs worth it. It would be worth it if Tomura never crossed the property line again.
But Tomura draws away from you without letting go of your hand and steps forward. You step back to give him space, and watch as he sets one foot over the line and onto the sidewalk, and then the other. And all at once, for the first time in a hundred and ten years, thereâs nothing wrong with your house at all.

âAww come on ten ten donât be such a sore loserâ you giggled into his headphones.
âyeah whateverâ was all he mumbled back with a blush on his cheeks which you couldnât see. You and Tomura, or Tenko as he introduced himself to you, have been gaming together for 2-3 months now. You guys met in some sort of chat room and have been hitting it off ever since. You not only game together but also talk on the phone for hours on end about Friends and Family , personal stuff and obviously gaming. Well you more then him. He love listening to you ramble. Your cute voice and addicting laugh.
âItâs getting kind of late ten ten (youâre the only person that gets to call him that) I have work early in the morning but it was nice talking to youâ you giggled. It really was you always felt like he was the only person that understood you. And he felt the same maybe even more but he wasnât ready to admit that.
âSleep well ten ten !â
âYou tooâ
Was all he said and that was enough for you. You always knew what he was intending on saying and what he meant.
ââââââ next dayâââââââââââââââââ
From [y/n] : Hey Tenko you ready to play r/g (random Game) again ૮ Ëśáľ áľ áľËś á⥠?
To [y/n] : sure
You were actually really good also a reason why he liked playing with you besides your cute voice. It was getting kind of frustrating that you were so good. Not to mention you were enjoying yourself quit a bit and making little remarks about how bad he was.
âOk now your not THAT goodâ he said
âI only won four times in a row didnât Iâ you said cheekily.
âYeah yeah whateverâ
âWell maybe you can learn a couple of things from me would you watch playâ
What did you mean watch you play. Did you stream ? You guys have been talking about all lot of stuff but jobs and other hobbies have never really been topic. You did send him pictures before so he kinda knew what you looked like. You were the most beautiful girl he has ever seen. But all he said that he didnât need to watch you.
âHere is the link to my channel if you ever change your mindâ
Tomura could feel how his heart sped up and a blush was creeping on his skin. He had to suppress the urge to click on the link and watch you stream. He had recordings of your voice which he listens to every night and the pictures you send him which he looked at when he felt down or when he did other things⌠But it wasnât his fault that he got hard looking at you. You were just so beautiful to him.
âBuuut letâs finish this round Iâm getting kind of tired ten tenâ
âThis time Iâm gonna beat yaâ he said chuckling. The excitement and the images of you streaming shot right to his member. He wondered if you were one of those who wore slutty clothes and took money from old men. He was gritting his teeth trying not to make a sound. It excited him being able to see you more often it wasnât enough to just see your pictures anymore he needed more. He won the round and he let out an excited âyes!â Which made him blush a little bit he was still a little awkward about showing so much emotions. You like it tho it was cute the way he got excited. You grumbled in response to loosing against.
âWell I canât lie that was pretty good ten tenâ
You guys logged off for the night. And as soon as the call ended Tomura clicked on the link as fast as possible. The link led him to your stream account it was as he imagined all pastel and pinky it was so you . The brightness stung in his eyes but he was too eager to look away. You were at almost 350k follows how has he never seen you. Well looking through you content you did play games you two liked to play but the majority of you content was games he wasnât too familiar with. He clicked on one of your videos. The latest one of your streams. You greeted you viewers with a little wave and that cute smile of yours. He couldnât look away. He had to have youâŚ
Tw: NSFW mdni, fwb!shiggy, big cock shiggy propaganda, love you at the end, lighthearted, piv, mild, random drabble
Tomura chuckles.
Did he ever think a girl would be lying beneath him, losing herself so utterly in pleasure. Hell no. But you do almost every night.
You are so cute. The way you bite your lip and how your hands roam his body. Your adorable little moans. You are so lost in the pleasure that he gives you. It feels so right. You are his.
âI am not even bottoming out,â he says breathlessly.
You smile and pull him closer. âYou want me to say it?â
âYeah,â he grins and kisses your cheek.
Your head falls back with the next thrust. âHmm! Am so full! So stuffed with your big cock!â You moan.
âHeh,â he grins wider. No one can fuck you like he can⌠that's why you always come back. He grabs a hold of your hips and pistons his hips forward, forcing the last remaining inches of his veiny cock inside your snug cunt.
You cry out and leave red scratches down his arm. âFuck. Fuck. Fuck! Can'tâ ohâ Can't take it! Too muchâ ah! Too fullâ too full!â
âMan⌠I love it even more when you babble about not being able to take it,â he hums and bites down on your earlobe. âFuck.â He sighs softly, holding you in place as his rhythm turns rapidly. You've been here a million times. You always end up taking him.
âNo! No!â Your palm pushes at his chest and he slows, looking at you with a frown.
âW-wait,â you meet his eyes, smiling dumbly. âI'm gonna squirt if you keep doing that,â you say breathlessly. âYou're hittingâ TOMURA!â Your back arches off the mattress and you grab the sheets, nearly ripping holes into them.
âYeah? Do this? Fuck. Show me!â He says through teeth. He didn't think squirting was real. Are you kidding? Are you making a joke? âBabeâŚâ
You shake your head, scratching at his shoulders. âWeâ didn't put⌠anyâ anythingâ downâ fuck⌠Tomu⌠Tomu. I love you. I love you. I love your cock.â He's making you feel so good. He always does.
He laughs softly. Thats the best part everytime. When he fucked you so dumb you tell him you love him. You're so precious. âDoes it feel good to squirt?â He asks.
You pout and nod. âSo good. Feels so good. Makes me go all brainless.â
âThen don't hold back,â he kisses your temple. âGive me all⌠I want all of you."
You moan desperately. âI love you.â
He knows you don't mean that.
Reblog to kiss sun and moon fnaf !!
Thanks for listening..
The moment AFO and the Doctor realize that their perfect plan, Tomura Shigaraki, is prone to temper tantrums... đ
You knew the empty house in a quiet neighborhood was too good to be true, but you were so desperate to get out of your tiny apartment that you didn't care, and now you find yourself sharing space with something inhuman and immensely powerful. As you struggle to coexist with a ghost whose intentions you're unsure of, you find yourself drawn unwillingly into the upside world of spirits and conjurers, and becoming part of a neighborhood whose existence depends on your house staying exactly as it is, forever. But ghosts can change, just like people can. And as your feelings and your ghost's become more complex and intertwined, everything else begins to crumble. (cross-posted to Ao3)

Chapter 20
âSorry about the clothes,â Spinner says as the two of you walk down the front steps of the hospital. âHimiko picked them out.â
âItâs fine,â you say. As long as you have clothes that arenât bloodstained and torn to pieces, you donât care what you look like. Youâre just glad to be headed home.
Nobody exited the near-apocalyptic conjurer fight in good shape, but some of you were worse off than the others. Nemuri was almost blasted apart trying to defeat the giant, and although she survived it, collecting the shreds of her essence back together is apparently a slow process. Keigo took a pretty sizeable hit protecting the kids, while Aizawa had to deal with a beastlike Nomu chewing the hell out of his leg before Hizashi blew its head off. But you and Tomura were by far the worse off. Youâve been in the hospital for two days. Tomura will be in for another three at least.
Most ghosts are healthy when they permanently embody themselves, but apparently itâs different for ghosts who use their own conjurers to do it. Tomura is starvation-level thin, with severe contact allergies to almost every type of medical equipment in the hospital, and the injuries he got from the fight and the rescue from the world between were bad enough to land him in the ICU at least temporarily. They had to put him in an induced coma, too. Heâs had meltdowns or panic attacks or some kind of fit every time heâs woken up.
âHeâll bounce back quickly,â Mr. Yagi assured you when he came to visit. âI did.â
That was how you learned that Mr. Yagi embodied himself from his conjurer, too â except she gave him permission to do it, when she realized she was going to die of cancer anyway. Mr. Yagiâs permanent embodiment involves chronic issues with his lungs and his stomach, all of which youâre familiar with after working as his assistant for years. Chronic, but manageable. Sometimes over the past two days, itâs seemed like Tomuraâs allergic to the entire human world.
Spinner told you that permanent embodiment creates complications, but you didnât realize just how severe those complications would be. Thereâs no legal record of Tomuraâs existence. He doesnât have ID or health records or health insurance. Thereâs no next of kin whoâs empowered to make decisions for him while heâs under heavy sedation, dead to the world. Hizashiâs working overtime to forge some kind of documentation for him. The doctors have been hinting that they wonât release him without it. Legally, you donât have any right to be involved in or updated on Tomuraâs medical condition, but he managed to identify you as somebody important before he went under, which means you get a little more information than you would have gotten otherwise. The doctors have been referring to you as his girlfriend. Apparently he called you his human.
Tomura might not have a next of kin, you do, and the doctors called your parents when you were too doped up on painkillers to stop them. You managed to talk them down from coming to visit, mostly by lying and then promising that they can come visit you soon. The last thing you need is for them to come here right now. Things are too chaotic. Itâs hard to think that anything normal will ever happen again.
Like today. Jin and Spinner are picking you up from the hospital and driving you home to a house that, for the first time since it was built, doesnât have a ghost in it.
When you and Spinner make it down the steps, Jinâs idling the van near the curb with Atsuhiro snoozing in the back row. Jin bursts out laughing at the sight of you, ignoring Spinner hissing at him to shut up. âNo wonder Himiko wouldnât let me see what she picked! Ready to get out of here?â
âYes.â Thatâs not quite true, though. The sharp pain in your chest as the hospital vanishes around a curve in the highway tells you that youâd rather have stayed until Tomura could come with you.
Youâve been there, the few times theyâve tried waking him up. Heâs promptly freaked out each time, and while your presence settles him a bit, the fact that heâs now in a human body, experiencing the world as a human does, is way more than you can calm him down from. Luckily for you and Tomura, the embodied ghosts stepped in to help. Since last night, thereâs been one of them stationed in his room at all times, ready to corral him, ready to explain, so nothing else in his hospital room goes up in dust. Tomura lost a lot of his ghostly powers, but heâs still got more than enough left to raise hell.
You donât want to leave him there. You want to stay there until he wakes up for good, and not leave until you can bring him home. But your health insurance wonât pay for more than the two nights you already spent in the hospital, and you have a bad feeling about whoâs going to be on the hook for Tomuraâs hospital bill. You have to go home. Youâll be back to visit tomorrow after work, but tonight you have to go home.
âHow did he look?â Spinner asks Jin. Spinner came to get you, while Jin brought Magne for her shift in Tomuraâs room. âYou saw him, right?â
âHe looks like hell.â
âHe looks like heâs looked the entire time,â Atsuhiro says sleepily from the back row. Then, to you: âThey mentioned removing the feeding tube in two days. His body is burning calories rapidly, and if he doesnât have enough in reserve, heâll have a heart attack when he starts moving around.â
âGreat,â you mumble. âDid he wake up at all?â
âNot perceptibly to the staff,â Atsuhiro says. Ghost stuff. Again. âI was able to tell him that you were being released today.â
You sort of wish Atsuhiro hadnât done that. Tomuraâs going to think youâre leaving him, and based on the conversation you had the day before things went to hell, he didnât want to embody himself for anything less than a sure thing. Youâre a sure thing. About as sure as it gets, given that you were ready to get sucked into the world between along with him rather than let him go. But heâs not going to know that until the two of you talk. And you canât talk to him while heâs got a feeding tube down his throat.
When you left the neighborhood three nights ago, you left it in the back of an ambulance, so you didnât get a good look at everything that happened. Now itâs daylight, and what you see isnât pretty. A weird fog still hovers over everything. Almost every plant on the block is dead, courtesy of being flash-frozen a dozen times over, and the pavement and asphalt on your end of the street is pitted and ruptured and cracked, courtesy of the giant. Nobodyâs house escaped getting knocked around a bit, but you know yours took the largest amount of damage â window smashed, porch roof caved in, fence down, yard chewed to bits â so when you get out of the car and make your way closer for a look, youâre expecting the worst.
What youâre not expecting to see is a new fence, in the process of being painted greyish blue. Youâre not expecting to see Himiko and a girl you vaguely remember meeting at her birthday party painting it. And youâre definitely not expecting Izuku to pop out of absolutely nowhere, hands smeared with dirt. âHey, youâre back! Are you okay?â
He waits long enough for you to confirm youâre not about to keel over, then pivots. âTell me everything that happened.â
âWe already told you what happened,â Spinner says. âDonât bug her.â
âYou did tell me! It was great,â Izuku says. He refocuses on you. âBut you spent the most time with the conjurer, didnât you? And you got away from him! How did you do it?â
It occurs to you, sort of suddenly, that you havenât told anybody exactly what happened. Everybodyâs clear on the important details â kidnapped by conjurer, tortured by conjurer with the intent of Nomufication, escaped, rescued by what Jin inexplicably decided to call the Vanguard Action Squad. Nobodyâs asked you more until you right now. And you should probably tell somebody, just to get it on the record. âUm, it was ââ
âIzuku! Leave her be,â Inko scolds, stepping out onto your front porch. You should have guessed that at least one of Izukuâs parents would be present, but youâre still surprised to see her. âIâm sorry to startle you. We were hoping to be gone by the time you got back so youâd have a quiet house.â
A quiet house. A house without Tomura in it. âItâs okay. Um â why are you here?â
âWeâre helping patch things up,â Izuku says. âIâm filling in the footprints in the yard â Toga says there was a huge Nomu here â like, building-sized ââ
âBigger,â Himiko says. She looks over at the other girl, who looks worried. âI didnât fight that one. I did lots of other fighting.â
âAnd Toga and Uraraka are fixing the fence,â Izuku continues. You forgot that Himiko picked out a different last name than Jinâs when she embodied herself. Youâre not sure why. âMom was keeping an eye on the guys who came to fix the window and the roof and Dad and Kacchan are in the backyard clearing out your dead plants! There are a lot of them. Sorry.â
âWhy are you sorry? You didnât do it.â You step through the gate, barely avoiding putting your hand in wet paint. âThe fence looks really nice, Himiko. You guys didnât have to do this.â
âThe old fence matched Tomuraâs new hair. We had to fix it,â Himiko explains. âNow it matches his old hair.â
âHe has new hair?â Uraraka asks.
âYeah, itâs white now. He looks like an anime villain,â Spinner says, and Himiko giggles. âI didnât know your fence was supposed to match your hair.â
âItâs not. Thatâs why weâre fixing it.â
âThank you,â you say to Himiko and her friend. âAnd â thanks, Izuku. Iâll tell you about all the stuff later.â
He beams at you, then goes back to filling in a massive hole in your yard. You thank Spinner and Jin for the ride home, and Atsuhiro for sitting with Tomura, then make your way into your house. The last time you were here, you could barely walk. You were oozing blood everywhere and you were in agony, but you remember seeing Tomura on the porch and stumbling into his arms and feeling for just a moment like everything would be okay. Everything is okay. But just like Aizawa said of you being turned into a Nomu, this came at a cost â and you werenât the one to pay.
There are a few bloodstains on the front porch steps. You collect some varnish from your hall closet and come back out to paint them over.
âMy dear.â Mr. Yagiâs feet appear in your field of vision and you look up at him. He looks miserable, his mouth trembling. âIâm so sorry.â
You shake your head. âIt wasnât your fault.â
âYou were taken from the parking lot. I knew the conjurer could be near. I knew you were in danger. And instead of ensuring your safety I allowed you to ââ
âYou werenât responsible for my safety. I was,â you say. Youâre pretty sure nothing could have stopped the conjurer. If he hadnât grabbed you from the parking lot before work, he would have grabbed you when you went outside on your lunch break or when you headed home. âThe bracelets you gave me helped me get away from him. I wouldnât have escaped without them.â
Mr. Yagi looks surprised. âIs that so?â
âWhen he noticed them, he broke one. It released all this energy and threw him across the room. Thatâs how I got out. And me and the ghost who helped me escape used the other one to blow up the building we were in.â
âMy master must have known he would break them,â Mr. Yagi says. He smiles slightly, sadly. âShe was a master tactician. And speaking of her â I suppose itâs no longer relevant, but I brought over the notes Izuku and I took from her journals, if youâd still like to read them.â
âIâd like to.â Youâll need something to do tonight, when youâre here all alone for the first time. âThank you.â
The two of you sit together on the steps until the varnish dries and the smell of food begins to drift out of the kitchen. You go to investigate and find that Inkoâs turned your kitchen into some kind of industrial cooking facility. âThis is for tonight,â she says, gesturing to a pot simmering on your stove. âIâve made things for the next four days also. The list on the counter is a list of common food sensitivities, in case Tomura picked up anything during his embodiment. And if you have any questions about anything, please call me.â
You feel a lump growing in your throat, making it hard to swallow. âI wouldnât want to bother you.â
âYou wouldnât,â Inko says. She smiles at you. âI would have liked someone to talk to, when it was me.â
You nod a few times, manage to thank her. Then you excuse yourself to the bathroom, so she wonât see you struggling not to cry.
Youâre not sure why youâre so miserable, why itâs so hard for you to hold it together as everyone heads home for the evening. The only thing that helps even slightly is when Phantom comes home, brought over by Shinsou and Hizashi, whoâve been keeping an eye on her for you. Sheâs so happy to see you that she leaps a full three feet off the ground and knocks you over, which hurts. You hug her close even though you can tell sheâs dying to zoom ecstatically around the house and look up at Shinsou and Hizashi from the floor. âThanks for looking out for her. I owe you.â
âThatâs the closest Iâm gonna get to getting a dog until I move out. Itâs great,â Shinsou says. Aizawa and Eri are committed cat people, but Shinsouâs said multiple times that he likes both. âSo you got out of the hospital. Are you, like â good?â
âGreat,â you say. Itâs a good thing you and Shinsou arenât ghosts, because if you were, you wouldnât have a prayer of getting away with the lie. âItâs nice to be home.â
Hizashi nods impatiently as you pick yourself up off the ground and Phantom goes tearing off to inspect the house, Shinsou in hot pursuit. He has a folder tucked under one arm, and he holds it out to you. âHere. ID and birth certificate for him. Iâm working on the rest.â
The ID is right on top, complete with a photo. âHowâd you get a photo of him?â
âTook it in the hospital. Fixing the background and photoshopping his eyes open was a bitch.â Hizashi looks pretty proud of himself anyway. âI made him the same age as you. He looks it at least. The birthday is an approximation of his summoning date. I couldnât use his embodiment date. I didnât want the doctors asking too many questions about how he had the worst birthday ever.â
âThanks.â You inspect everything a little closer, then nearly drop the folder in shock. âShigaraki Tomura? You gave him his conjurerâs last name?â
âI couldnât think of anything else,â Hizashi says. âIt flows pretty nicely, right?â
You guess it does, except for the part where youâre going to think of the conjurer every time you use Tomuraâs new full name. âThank you,â you say again, uselessly. âI donât know what Iâd do if you hadnât helped.â
Hizashi looks as uncomfortable being thanked by you as you are doing the thanking. âDonât worry about it. His shitâs a lot easier to forge than the Nomusâ.â
Shinsou and Hizashi stick around for a little longer, checking out the repairs and marveling at all the food Inko cooked, then head home. You shut and lock the door behind them, and all at once youâre home alone. Just you and Phantom, like you thought it would be when you bought this place. Phantom is wandering from room to room, greeting you when she passes by but very much looking for something. Looking for Tomura.
âHeâll be home soon,â you promise her. She knows who youâre talking about. She whines. âI miss him, too.â
You feel aimless, and you feel sick. You should probably eat something. You fill a bowl from the pot Inko left on the stove and settle in on the couch to pick at it, staring at nothing if youâre not looking into the bowl itself. It tastes good, but youâve got no desire to eat it. You eat it anyway. If youâre going to be miserable no matter what, you might as well do it on a full stomach.
Part of you thinks itâs normal to feel wrecked after everything thatâs happened. You were kidnapped and tortured. You watched your ghost die in front of you nineteen times. You almost got force-fed a ghost and almost turned into a Nomu and almost watched your house be destroyed and almost killed somebody and almost lost your ghost to the world between. Only a crazy person wouldnât be upset. But at the same time, itâs a whole lot of almost. It could have been so much worse. It almost was. What is there for you to be upset about?
Your phone rings and you pick it up just for somebody to talk to. Itâs your mom. âWhen I called the hospital they said youâd been discharged today. Why didnât you call?â
âItâs been a lot. I just got home.â Itâs probably not good that your default is to lie to her. âEverythingâs fine.â
âEverything isnât,â your mom says severely. âI raised you. I know you. Even over the phone, I know that tone in your voice.â
âHow do you know me, Mom? We barely talk. We barely talked even when I was a kid.â You shouldnât say this. Nowâs not the right time to say this, but youâve started, and you canât stop yourself. âEverythingâs not fine, and I donât want to talk about it. Not with you. Not with anybody! The only person I want to talk to about it is Tomura, and heâs ââ
In the hospital, in an induced coma, with a feeding tube down his throat that they wonât remove for two more days. Your own throat closes up, and your mom is silent on her end of the line. You brace yourself for her to blow up at you, to talk about how you never let her in, how the distance between the two of you is your fault. Instead: âYou must be really worried about Tomura,â she says. âHow is he doing?â
âHeâs â they think heâll be out in three days,â you say haltingly. âItâs â itâs worse for him than it was for me. I was healthier to start with. But they said heâll be home in three days.â
âAre you going to visit him tomorrow?â
âI want to,â you say. âI have to go back to work, too. My boss said heâd give me as much time as I need, but I need to save it for when Tomuraâs home.â
âWhen heâs home,â your mother repeats. âYou live together?â
Oops. âYeah. For a while now.â
âSo itâs serious.â
âAs serious as it gets,â you say. For a moment youâre overwhelmed by the memory of clinging to his hand as the world between dragged him in, refusing to let go even if it meant youâd be pulled in, too. âIâm â this is it for me, Mom. Heâs it. Iâm not leaving him.â
âI would never ask you to leave him,â your mom says, surprised. You shouldnât have said that, should have known that the weight behind it wouldnât make sense to her. âIâm looking forward to meeting him, once the two of you have recovered from all of this. You still havenât told me what happened.â
You havenât told anyone. âItâs hard to explain,â you say. Your phone begins to beep again, signaling an incoming call, and your stomach lurches when you see Magneâs caller ID. âIâm getting a call from the hospital. I have to go. Sorry ââ
âGo,â your mom says immediately. âIâll call back later. I love you.â
You manage to mumble that you love her too, then end the call and accept Magneâs. âWhatâs happening? Is he okay?â
You hear Magne speaking to someone else, but you canât hear what sheâs saying, and then her voice is there again, right in your ear. âTomuraâs awake,â she says. âTheyâre trying to sedate him again, but heâs a little upset. You can imagine.â
You can imagine. âCan I talk to him?â
âThatâs why I called you, honey.â Magne puts you on speaker, and you hear her voice from a distance. âYouâre right by his ear. Go ahead.â
âTomura,â you say, and you hear a strangled sound. âItâs okay. Everythingâs okay. Nobody there wants to hurt you. Theyâre just trying to help.â
You imagine him arguing that it hurts anyway. Probably also that itâs not helping, and he still feels like hell. âThe sooner you get through this, the sooner you can come home,â you tell him. âThatâs where I am right now. Me and Phantom are waiting for you. Weâll be here when you get back. Three days, right?â
âRight,â a doctor confirms from somewhere in the offing. âThe wounds are healing well. The nutritional deficiencies are the main concern now.â
âYouâll be home soon,â you promise. âIâll come visit you tomorrow.â
Heâd be protesting if he could talk. Probably saying that heâll be asleep tomorrow if he lets them sedate him again. âIâll be there,â you say. âYouâre fun to hang out with even when youâre asleep.â
You wonder if heâll hear what youâre calling back to â all those months ago, when you were trying to keep him out of your bedroom at night. âI love you. Iâll be there tomorrow. Tomura ââ
âHeâs out,â Magne tells you. She laughs quietly. âWe all knew you had him wrapped around your finger, but itâs really something to see in action.â
You close your eyes. âThanks for sitting with him. It would be harder if you werenât.â
Magne says something about how itâs not a problem, even though it is, and you thank her again and hang up the phone. You wish you were there with Tomura in the hospital. Even if you canât talk to him, you can hold his hand. You could get used to the warmth of his skin and the new rhythm of his pulse and the sight of his white hair, before he comes home to you for good. You finish your soup and lift Phantom into your lap. She was with you at the start of all this, before all of this. Sheâs the only thing right now that feels like home. She lets you hug her and licks your face a few times, and for some stupid reason, thatâs when you start to cry.

Sun, being the lovable sassy BITCH!! He was in Help Wanted 2, would have me do my best, but since Iâm a little sensitive ho, heâd say something sassy or rude and Iâd get defensive and rude back while my eyes are watering and itâs getting hard to breathe. Iâd also probably finish doing something but hide under the table when he reviews it because I did that in elementary school once because the thought of failing made me so nervous đ
I don't really know you but you have my full support TvT
I apologize to all my followers for how mentally unwell I am about Sun's new voicelines in Help Wanted 2
I still love them but same, the art insecure comfort seeker side is like mine đ like its intresting to see a new layer of him and all but i found it when i was at a really low mental state that it hurt...deep...but i still love them but i hurt TvT
Can I be honest about something? I..I donât really know how to feel about sunâs new voice lines in help wanted 2. At first I was a little confused but I didnât mind the change really. But then I started feeling a bit sad and seeing how people were going about the new change. While any type of interpretation of Sun and mood are valid. People shitting on/making fun of âfanon Sunâ just and or rejoicing at the fact that he âhates childrenâ kinda rubs me the wrong way, especially since he was a comfort to so many people(especially neurodivergent people). I was late diagnosed around age 18 and have been bullied my whole life and even ridiculed by my own parents.
When security breach came out it was nice to think that Sun and moon would be the type treat neurodivergent kids and or adults with kindness and understanding attitudes and love. Something that Iâve never felt from the people around me. Iâm also hella insecure about my art and donât know if or when Iâll improve. Especially when right now Iâm in a very low point in my life where one of my breakdowns caused me to get withdrawn from school months ago and I have no idea what Iâm going to do as of now. Talk about HW2 coming out at bad timing..I donât really know how to feel about the daycare attendant anymore.
''Soo banned.. I should just turn off the lights myself'' HELP WANTED 2 IS GROOVY And sassy sun lives rent free in my head so why not make one of those groove-tacularitarily voice lines come to life Today's lesson: INDIGESTION :), keep eating those art supplies to find out what it is! Also happy late birthday to Security Breach! See this as a half-sb-birthday animation

okay so Sun Help Wanted 2 rambles below, so BEWARE SPOLERS!!!
WOAAAAAAAAAWOOOAAAAAWOOOOOOOOOO
okay now that i have that out of my system, let's start with the rambling!!!
obviously we all now know (and love) how sassy and petty Sun actually is around adults. but i've seen sooo many people portraying Sun as just An Asshole and just A Bully and so few have pointed out that actually no!!!! he's a DIVA!!! he's a DRAMA queen!!!! my dudes, he is a former THEATER ACTOR!!!!!! and so so many things, like his mannersim, the way he speaks ("Finally, art that makes you THINK!" , "The Daycare is no place for AMATEURS" , "Be creative on YOUR OWN TIME, WE ARE MAKING ART"), even his entrance (he literally CARTWHEELS into the scene, what a show-off) point to his theatrical origins and how much of a perfectionist he is. He's obviously frustrated whenever you're doing something wrong, throwing offhanded, petty comments at you because he is used to perfection!! for i don't know how long during his theater days he was playing the main character in every play, day after day after day, he's used to things going EXACTLY to plan, and obviously he has expectations from you since you are an adult. (and besides, you gotta give it to him: it must be frustrating and stressful going from working as an actor and being in the spotlight all the time and everything going according to plan to working as a daycare attendant with crying kids who always do mistakes and make a mess and don't draw inside the lines)
and i'm pretty sure that anyone who's more intensly part of any art field (doesn't matter if it's drawing, theater, sculpture, architecture, whatever) has met a few people and crits who behaved and had the same attitude (however less unhinged, ofc) like Sun: not downright bullying you, but being just overall petty and perfectionists.
i just feel that some people downplay Sun's personality by portraying him as just a simple Asshole, when actually the Help Wanted 2 minigame does an EXCELLENT job hinting to his theatrical origins and his really art-passionate, perfectionist, sassy personality
"but he's shredding the player's work!! he IS just a bully!!" my dude, you are playing as an adult who's doing a tutorial/maintenace test and is listed with some tasks. he's obviously not going to keep the "paint-by-numbers" drawing a staff member did for a maintenance test. and he even states that all the artworks done in the Pizzaplex are property of Fazbear Entertainment; so who knows, maybe there is a rule that everything done during maintenance test should be immediately destroyed. (and still, he can also just downright be petty and sassy and snappy towards adults) still a funny gig, lol
anyways i fucking love how much character Sun displays and i fucking love how much of a drama queen and diva he is, can't wait to see the rest of the game!!!
It hurted me deep inside yet i loved him đi'm fucked up
Okay okay poll I want to know immediate reactions
And feel free to share thoughts! No judgement just curious
i need. More repressed shigaraki
Oh babe you asked for it and so yougot itÂ
Part I and II here
At this point, itâs been a few weeks, and Shigaraki is as close to coming to terms with his feelings for youas heâs going to get. Thatâs not saying much, since now that he realizes the trouble heâs in, that means heâs going to have to actually do something about it, right? Now, our boy is a man of action, but this? This is uncharted territory for him, and he doesnât like that one bit.Â
Heâd rather go toe to toe with All Might than act on what he feels for you. Battles are a matter of strength, calculation, and strategy. Worst comes to worst, he could retreat and try again another day. But this? Too many variables, too many questions. Feelings are irrational and random, and thereâs no way to calculate that.
Plus, if you reject him, itâs gameover, and thereâs no continue. Heâs not sure he could handle that.Â

Okay so I Need to ask. Repressed Shigaraki, after that initial night, how would he go about handling his libido. Like would he ask you out or just daydream a lot? What if it got out of hand (lol hand) and he couldn't take it
He⌠wouldnât. Handle it, that is. Heâs convinced himself that heâs âimmuneâ to such temptation, so when it smacks him in the face like a damn ceiling fan, he has no clue how to go about it. Heâs never dealt with overbearing lust before. This is all new to him. Heâll get a little hormonal rise every now and again but usually he can deal with it with the olâ in-out four finger palm pump. Not this time.

Ok so we all write about big horny go getter Shigaraki, but what about sexually repressed, pent up Shigaraki
Bitch you K N O W I had to write it now
Heâs trying not to look. He really is. Honest. No, really.
Youâre frantically flouncing around the kitchen in nothing but a tank top and shorts -your âsleepwearâ- at 2 am, desperately searching for something. He doesnât know what. He wasnât listening (truthfully, he couldnât focus) when you asked him about it. Instead he went on autopilot, shaking his head while pretending he wasnât lasciviously leering at the sight of so much of your skin on show.

Adhd*
as a fellow gal with ADHD, please consider: shiggy/hyper & easily distracted gf
Oh man, I think it would drive him crazy. Shigaraki is so hyper focused and determined, and heâs obviously somewhat organized and skilled at bringing things together.
Those of us with ADHD (especially untreated) tend to be a bit scatterbrained and easily distracted. Could you imagine sitting through a long, grueling meeting with the league, and you just find yourself staring at the wall, daydreaming? Youâre trying to listen, you really are, but every once in a while, he says something that sends your mind on a tangent and it becomes almost impossible to listen?
Anytime you have to read over recon or reports, you have to do it about 8 times because even though your eyes are scanning over the words, your head is totally somewhere else. Itâs just not digesting the words. Sometimes you have to quiz yourself (or have him do it for you) to make sure you absorbed the information.
And sleeping next to him? Oh man.
âHey!â
âWhat?â
âYouâre twitching your leg again.â
âOh, Iâm sorry, I didnât realize it.â
âWell stop! Youâre shaking the whole bed!â
âIâm trying! I start doing it subconsciously.â
âWell knock it off. Iâm trying to focus.â
âOkay.â
...........
...........
âYouâre doing it again!â
Heâd have to check in on you and make sure youâre not getting sidetracked while you work. He even has to pay extra attention to where you put things because you have a tendency to lose track of stuff.
âDid you see where I put my phone?â
âI saw you with it two minutes ago.â
âI know. I canât remember where I put it.â
âDid you check your pocket?â
âYes, Tomura, Iâm not stupid.â
âWhat about the counter?â
âAlready looked.â
âAnd what about the bathroom where you went right before you lost it?â
â....huh.â
âIdiot.â
Even when heâs looking right at you, heâs not entirely sure youâre listening. Sometimes he asks you to repeat what it is he just said just so he can be sure. Your impulsive nature doesnât necessarily help matters. He thinks if you spent half as much time working as you did daydreaming, you might have destroyed society on your own by now.
âWhat the hell are you looking at?â
âHuh?â
âYouâve been staring at the counter for 10 minutes. Youâre barely blinking.â
âOh. I was just wondering what it would be like to have a quirk like Hawks. You know, like flying and stuff? Do you think he ever gets bugs in his teeth? And what about going down, do you think his stomach does the flippy thing or do you get used to it? Also, do you think he needs to like, brush his wings? You know when you get a few hairs parted on the wrong side and it feels weird? You think you get that with feathers? And since heâs birdlike, you think he lays eggs or-â
âYou know what? Iâm sorry I asked.â
Yeah, it would drive Shigaraki crazy sometimes. But even though heâll never tell you this, he thinks itâs cute, and he doesnât mind it nearly as much as he pretends he does. Plus, heâs more than happy to help keep you organized and remember things you might have forgotten. Itâs a minuscule price to pay to be with you, and something heâd probably do anyway.
I don't have addh but that's litteraly me xD

Who would win in a fight over you - Dabi or Tomura? And who would be better in bed?
Ooh! Ooh this is an interesting one!
Alright, so if Shigaraki and Dabi both catch feelings for you, you might as well put the High Noon soundtrack on repeat around the hideout because things are about to get a lot more hostile âround these parts. Much to everyoneâs ire, theyâre not exactly shy about this either. Those two donât get along well on the best of days, so when theyâre competing for something they both crave, things are going to get messy.Â
But letâs start off slow, shall we?

shig keeping count how many times he can make you cum before you're shaking and sobbing from overstimulation
âIt really is cute how sensitive your little body gets after your fifth orgasm, you know.â He trails his hands lightly down your stomach, your tummy muscles clenching in anticipation and agony. Your knees are trying to jerk shut to prevent him access, but the binds around your ankles keep your legs splayed. Your chest rises and falls in erratic rhythm, breath only barely returning to you after your last dive over the edge.Â
âDonât- Please donât!âÂ
Some of the tears beading on your lashes slip down your cheeks as you slam your eyes shut. You canât take anymore. Physically, you canât. Yet, you can feel his pinkie finger tracing little figure eights up your leg and every muscle in your body clenches in protest. It doesnât matter how much you buck and hiss against his treatment, the frame of the bed never gives way to your tantrum.Â
He cocks his head with all the feigned innocence of a child who pretends they donât know theyâve done wrong. âWhatâs the matter? I thought this was supposed to feel good?â The cold, sarcastic tone to his voice breaks the facade if nothing else does, but the callous way his nails dig into your thigh is a close second.Â
He sees you flinch and tremble as he slowly draws closer to your apex and his lips tick in a sick sense of satisfaction. Thereâs a practiced sort of patience in his actions, the way he comes near enough to your overstimulated heat to make you imbed your fingernails into your palms until your knuckles turn white only for him to withdraw over and over without ever allowing you to relinquish the sense of dread it brings when he does. The second heâs seen that youâve formed some sense of calm around his wandering fingers is when he strikes.Â
âI canât! Seriously, I canât!â
He gives you a derisive look of sympathy and you know it means nothing. He doesnât want to hear you beg. If he did, he would have accomplished his goal hours ago. Truth be told, youâre not entirely sure what he wants. The only thing that you know is that thereâs such a thing as too much pleasure and he has perfected exactly how to weaponize that against you. Youâre strapped down, at his mercy, and he looks far from bored.Â
Heâs gaining something from this, surely some sadistic urge is being filled, because he hasnât even taken off his clothes. This hasnât even begun yet and youâre sick in the knowledge. Heâs molding you like a ball of play-dough, squeezing and squishing until youâre malleable enough for him to want to play with. Judging by the way heâs still skirting the edges of your thighs and showing no signs of moving from his sitting position beside you, youâre not broken enough to be any fun yet.Â
Youâre rubbed raw, legs chafing with a tacky trail leading from where he found his way inside you before to where his hand dances tenderly around your pebbled nipple. Every grace of his fingertips across you pimples your flesh and makes you acutely aware heâs just toying with you. He drives the point home by scratching up your hip, little red welts raising over skin as your leg jerks instinctively from the pain despite the fact that you know you canât break free.Â
âItâs actually impressive. This long and youâre still so responsive.â He muses, poking and prodding at your chest like a specimen. âI thought you would have gone numb a long time ago.âÂ
He punctuates his sentence with a none-to-gentle pinch on your breast. You canât bring yourself to tell him thatâs not entirely how it works, not when you can practically see the wheels turning in head turning as he contemplates how he wants to torture you next. His pupils are dilated as they run over your exposed form and youâre not entirely sure whether its with arousal or sheer curiosity. With him, itâs anyoneâs guess.
âPlease, I canât take it!â
His hand finds its way between your legs again, cupping and stroking with one finger so lightly that normally you likely wouldnât even be able to register it, but in your hypersensitivity, your thigh muscles twitch and a wail of agony bubbles in your throat.Â
âAw, baby canât take it anymore?â
He leans in, leaving one hand to coax your already overindulged pussy, the other softly caressing your cheek. Itâs a warning sign, a crocodile lazily observing its pray before snapping shut its jaws. His heavily lidded eyes scan your face, sides of his lips curling into a deceptively delicate smile. Your head lulls into his hand, and even though you know the dangers, you fall into his trap.
You regret it as quickly as you do it, and you cry out in a mixture of devastating bliss and torment as his finger plunges back up inside your sore walls, stimulating the overworked nerves with the pads of his fingertip.Â
âWhy donât we find out just how much you can really take?âÂ
 hi Iâm here to thirst.
shigaraki makes his gf fuck a joystick. discuss.
âââââââââââââââ
Hhhhhhh yes fuck yes oh babey yes. So, dating Shigaraki canât be easy, right? Heâs temperamental, easily irritable, and disappears for long stretches of time on quests with his League. If something goes wrong, heâs going to be an insufferable asshole for a while. Heâs one of those types that when heâs in a mood, he either wonât leave you alone or he wonât even look at you. He might use you as his personal stress relieving fleshlight until your thighs are chafed and youâre leaking cum from every orifice, or just flat out refuses to touch you for weeks at a time.Â
Now hereâs the kicker. Youâre his, and no one is allowed to touch you, and that includes you. If itâs not some part of him thatâs inside you, there better be nothing at all. If heâs not satisfying you, youâre not getting off.
