y/n why do you want to break his heart so badly?
today was slow, the two of you just lazed around in your dorm
the day consisted of watching documentaries and making your own theories while he held you close
“be right back, gonna get us some taiyaki!” he smiled and hopped up
when he left you whipped out your phone and scrolled on tiktok until you found a rather cute prank
you stretched and sat under the kotatsu and waited for him to get back
when he did you let 3 minutes pass before pressing record
“baby.” “hm?” “i think you could’ve been nicer to me today...”
zuku’ choked on his fish cake and stared big eyed at you, he set it down and dusted the crumbs off of his fingers before fully facing you
“i’m sorry...” “it’s alright.” “baby, how was i rude? i’ll make it up to you.”
katsuki
this boy always knows when you’re pranking him
he’s like an undercover lie detector
but he needs a few moments to activate, why not prank him after the nap that he took in your dorm?
you understand that he was tired from school but you were tired of not getting attention
bakugou woke up from a good nap, a little drool, lines on his face and arms, back cracking as soon as he raised up, and the sight of you to top it all off
but something wasn’t right, you were slouched over the small table and pouting
“what’s the matter?” he grumbled, “i feel like you could’ve been nicer to me today.” “huh... what’d i say? whatever, m’sorry.”
he was not the one for prolonged conversations straight out of his slumber, and was less aggressive during this time
he got up and pecked your forehead with a small, “don’t be upset, i’ll give you some attention when i get outta’ the shower, m’kay?”
you smiled and nodded, posting the video immediately after he left
yes that character would date black people. youre just racist,

NARA ID 58260. “From 143rd Street in Harlem to the center court in Wimbledon is about as far as one can travel.” —Althea Gibson
Althea Gibson, daughter of South Carolina sharecroppers, grew up in Harlem and became a champion of the very segregated sport of tennis. Gibson was the first Black tennis player to compete and win at both Wimbledon and the U.S. Nationals (Arthur Ashe was the 1st Black man to win at Wimbledon when he defeated Jimmy Connors 8 years later, in 1975). Eventually, she would play—and beat—all other top women’s tennis players worldwide, while shattering class and racial barriers!
Gibson, L, on the Wheaties box in 2001. Serena Williams, R, in 2019.
"In 2001, Wheaties paid homage to a true champion and an icon by putting her on the cover of a Wheaties Box. Althea Gibson was the FIRST Black Woman tennis player to be on the box. Today, I am honored to be the second. I have dreamt of this since I was a young woman and it’s an honor to join the ranks of some of America’s most decorated athletes. I hope my image on this iconic orange box will inspire the next generation of girls and athletes to dream big.” —Serena Williams

⤷ Benimaru isn’t the one to have tiktok, or probably any sort of social media except Instagram. He’ll only have it just to watch your story or like and comment on your pictures
⤷ So obviously he’s never heard of this type of music playing inside your home
⤷ He decided to come and visit you since he had to be away for a mission and when he came in he was for sure taken back by what he saw
⤷ Beni was looking around your home and calling your name until he met with your back turned and your ass moving in a way he has never seen before
⤷ With the music blasting loud and you enjoying the leaked snippet of JT’s part, not even noticing your black-haired boyfriend watching you from the doorframe
⤷ Beni didn’t even say anything, he just leaned next to the door and enjoying the show you gave him
⤷ Watching you gyrate your ass and how your thighs moved along with it
⤷ An ever growing smirk plastered on him as his arms were tucked in his dark blue kimono
⤷ Soon enough you turned and jumped at the sight of your red/tic tac toe eyed boyfriend leaned on your doorframe, smirking and staring at your plush ass
⤷ “Beni what the fuck?! When did- How did- How long was yo ass standing there?”
⤷ Let’s just say, the show you gave him was clouding his mind too much to answer and lead onto “other things” that day
·˚ ༘ੈ✩‧₊˚ ╰┈➤ 𝐒𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐑𝐀 𝐊𝐔𝐒𝐀𝐊𝐀𝐁𝐄
⤷ WHEW! That boy was shocked when he heard the music blasting from your room and your demonstrating your moves to the girls (Tamaki, Maki, and Sister Iris)
⤷ Shinra was looking around to ask if you wanted to hang out later today until he was met with you shaking your ass
⤷ The girls were hyping you up as you moved your body up and down, doing it standing up, and demonstrating on the floor
⤷ Shinra walked into you with your hands on the back of your head and your ass and thighs moving simultaneously
⤷ Boy was his face and ears growing as red as his eyes
⤷ Plus his nervous smile growing very wide on him, with him being stuck
⤷ The boy was honestly frozen didn’t even know how to react
⤷ He didn’t know his girlfriend could move like THAT and to be honest he’s never even see someone move like that before
⤷ You being the first to show him, he obviously didn’t know what to do but at the same time he was enjoying it per se
⤷ The girls hyping you up made you move even faster and left the boy in a spin actually, soon enough to leave him dizzy
⤷ You kept going until Maki noticed Shinra at the door and gasped, along with Tamaki and Sister noticing as well
⤷ Sister immediately stopped the music and Tamaki called out your name until you stopped and questioned why the music stopped
⤷ Maki pointed to Shinra standing frozen and loudly stated, “Your boo is watching.”
⤷ Nothing ever felt anymore awkward until that day
·˚ ༘ੈ✩‧₊˚ ╰┈➤ 𝐎𝐆𝐔𝐍 𝐌𝐎𝐍𝐓𝐆𝐎𝐌𝐄𝐑𝐘
⤷ The biggest hypeman EVER !!
⤷ Of course Ogun have social media so he is definitely aware of the song “twerkulator”
⤷ Actually he was the one who showed it to you
⤷ Ogun being an undercover City Boy? Definitely
⤷ You two were chilling in his room, watching tiktoks together until the leaked song came on from a tiktok
⤷ You two were dancing along and as the song continued, you were moving more of your body
⤷ Soon enough when you heard “These rich niggas throwin paper, now it’s time for the twerkulator (shake that ass)”
⤷ You hopped off his bed and that ass was MOVING
⤷ Ogun himself was on the bed recording you and hyping you up from behind the camera
⤷ You continued to move your ass in so many ways, ways that your boyfriend himself didn’t even know you could do
⤷ Of course he’s walked into you dancing to Megan, City Girls, and of course Nicki
⤷ So he’s used to you shaking your ass all the time but this time? WHEW!
⤷ He had to stop and take a breather real quick cause chile….
⤷ When did his girlfriend learn how to move like that??
⤷ Also he may have accidentally post the video and you may or may not have blowing up on instagram and tiktok

WHAT TYPE OF JEWLERY THE BAKUSQUADE WOULD BUY YOU
👩🏽💻: I hyperfixate off of chains . as always, black reader!
BAKUGOU
NECKLACE WITH HIS NAME ON IT
first off all, oh my god what I’d do to have a chain with his name (but y’all already know that..)
he’d probably buy it out of the blue , random Tuesday.
but would spend a week in advance wondering how to give it to you without sounding too in love with yo ass
sero had to help him out, and denki but we all know denki ass AINT no help.
You were coming back from training with Mina and Jirou and then Bakugou came stuttering in, you went to kiss his cheek as usual when he finally told you about the jewlery
“hey y/n, look I gotchu this chain aight? yo ass better wear it too this wasn’t cheap. and you already know it’s real.”
Then he kissed your cheek and left you flustered in the commons room with your friends squealing at the name “katsukis”
you were def in love with him after that - made sure to buy him all the video games he’d ever dream of and make him mad spicy food.
bonus: denki would always ask bakugou how you always stick with his ass and then bakugou would respond with “if you can’t get your girl a chain and you’re jealous jus say dat.”
chain -> gold , name -> has diamonds inside , his pockets -> dented like a mf.
SERO
PROMISE RING
you cant tell me his lil romantic ass wouldnt. Try and tell me.
would buy you it near your anniversary
his ass would be grinning so hard because he just KNOWS that he stepped with this gift
but was super nervous that you wouldn’t accept or you’d be too anxious and think it’s too soon even tho you’ve been together for a year
he truly loves you and wants to show you that , so he bought you a ring cuz why not.
Would text you to come to his dorm, which wasn’t out of the ordinary since you guys always chill at each other dorms.
“Hey babe what’s up” that was met with a kiss on his cheek and laying on his lap looking at your phone while you both caught up on small things, then he finally brung out the piece of jewlery
“Okay, please don’t freak out but I really really love you and to show that I bought you a promise ring. To promise you that I’ll always be there for you no matter what mi amor. You don’t have to accept since I know this is a lot but-“
Yeah you shut him up with a kiss to his lips and running your hands through his hair just how he likes - it calmed both you and him down
You gracefully accepted the ring and from there it was like you just fell head over heels for his ass, sero feels like the superior boyfriend
bonus: sero and Kirishima totally did not make a bet who could get their girlfriends the best gift…
Ring -> diamonds , pockets -> most DEF dented
KIRISHIMA
DIAMOND HOOPS
When you first started putting your hair in puffs is when he admired your hoops
Like damn ain’t nobody tell you to look dat good.
he mentally reminded himself to buy you some one day
would buy it when he saves enough for it
When he buys them he’s going straight to your dorm to give you them so he can see you wear them the next day
Walking around the dorms with heart eyes and shit little mf simp
“Kiri damn I’m coming” you laughed lightheartedly coming toward the door as he shoved the box in your hands looking at you with sparkly eyes
“I love you baby, I hope you love these earrings.”
now he making you cry, damn kiri.
you hugged him tightly and thanked him over a million times. Now he feels the most manly he’s ever been and now you’re planning your wedding venue.
you wear the hoops the next day with a pretty summer dress and sandals, he can’t stop staring at you.
hoops -> silver , pockets -> dented
DENKI
MATCHING CHARM BRACELETS
I just feel like he would love to have matching shit with you
he saving his money the day he saw a couple with matching bracelets and now he wanted them
so that means… no buying video games and shit .
Once he did but it he made SURE to make an announcement abt it to everyone in the commons room. I mean like he texted everyone “come to commons room ASAP”
“Is everybody here? Good. Y/N my BEAUTIFUL WIFE i think you’d love to know I bought us matching charm bracelets. Who you know out here that got matching bracelets? Nobody, das right😌”
The girls are squealing for you, the boys(especially bakugou) are groaning and going back to their room bc they fr thought it was important, and you’re gushing:)
“Aw thank you my love!!” You kiss him on the cheek and he shorts circuits a little bit but it was completely worth it.
In private he’ll tell you why he picked the charms he did and why they’re re significant in your relationship
He now always creeps up behind you and pull up your sleeve to see if you’re wearing the bracelet, you always are. Now it’s both a mutual game to try and catch the other slippin.
Bonus: his ass would come to you and be like “4 liferrrrsssssss😜”
bracelet -> yours is rose gold and his is gold! , pockets -> dented as hell .
remember that a person in georgia self-immolated back in december as well to call for a ceasefire in gaza and do not let aaron bushnell's death be as easily anonymized and scrubbed from public consciousness
in which the boys attempt to flirt with you<3
cw: cussing, good flirting, general teen boy dumbassery, me pining over hitoshi and katsuki<3, ect.
including: shinso, bakugou, kirishima, kaminari, and todoroki
*✭˚・゚✧*・゚*✭˚・゚✧*・゚**✭˚・゚✧*・゚*✭˚・゚✧*・゚**✭˚・゚✧*・゚*✭˚・゚✧*・゚
hitoshi shinso outright flirts with you. he has quite the way with words, he has to, in order for his quirk to be effective, but that’s neither here nor there. He’s really good at slyly complimenting you while still maintaining a tough exterior. it’s all sultry looks and gravelly teasing banter about your grades on the most recent history test. if he has to tell you something in a loud place, he’ll tilt your head close to his mouth so you can hear him well. Also, if you’re one to get flustered and look away or downward, occasionally he’ll tilt your head back up to where you have to look him in the eye. Also uses terms like sweetheart and babe, something along the lines of, “speak up sweetheart, i can’t hear ya.”
*✭˚・゚✧*・゚*✭˚・゚✧*・゚**✭˚・゚✧*・゚*✭˚・゚✧*・゚**✭
katsuki bakugou is the worst at flirting, no questions asked, he's just insufferable. no, but seriously. in the beginning it's so bad because he's taking the bakusquad's advice, which in no way suits him as a person. once he stops taking their stupid advice, and he starts acting like himself again, it's not so bad. when he's doing it himself, it's a lot of lingering touches and eye contact. he’ll be fixing your fighting stance, and letting himself linger for a few moments longer than necessary, or put his arms over yours as he helps you ith your homework. If that doesn’t do it for you, then maybe the copious amount of eye contact he gives will. He won’t look away until you do, so be prepared, babes
*✭˚・゚✧*・゚*✭˚・゚✧*・゚**✭˚・゚✧*・゚*✭˚・゚✧*・゚**✭˚・゚✧*・゚*✭˚・゚✧*・゚
eijirou kirishima is so friendly that it’s hard to tell that he’s flirting, that is, until you realize every time you speak his eyes are zeroed in on your lips. This gets harder and harder to ignore, especially when you put on chapstick or lipgloss. he just can’t NOT stare. he’ll also start referring to you with cutesy nicknames without realizing it, especially if you’re sad or upset. he’d comfort you and keep calling you things like “baby cakes” and “angel” without thinking about it, and then go completely red in the face once you mention it to him. he even becomes super gentlemanly so that he can impress you. (his friends totally bully him about it later lmao)
*✭˚・゚✧*・゚*✭˚・゚✧*・゚**✭˚・゚✧*・゚*✭˚・゚✧*・゚**✭˚・゚✧*・゚*✭˚・゚✧*・゚
denki kaminari flirts with awful pickup lines. he does so in such a way where it's not annoying. to mix it up, he also does the typical teenage boy thing, that is tapping you and getting real close to you and such. he also jokingly suggests that he takes you out for dinner or something, though it’s not like he hasn’t have the perfect date planned! Not at all! (yeshedoesjustgooutwithhimpls) on the flip side, he’s so fun to flirt with because he likes you so much, the minute you say something flirty he’s extremely bashful. If you ask him where all that bravado went, he’ll have an atrocious voice crack while trying to piece something together to say.
✭˚・゚✧*・゚*✭˚・゚✧*・゚**✭˚・゚✧*・゚*✭˚・゚✧*・゚**✭˚・゚✧*・゚*✭˚・゚✧*・゚
shouto todoroki doesn't flirt. he just says what he feels, and it's up to your interpretation what that really means. he says really offhand remarks that could be taken any way you want them to, and he doesn’t feel the need to explain himself, even with that cute quizzical look on your face. he’ll also ask you about things you like, just to hear you positively light up about them. he adores the look on your face when you’re so happy, and if you catch him at the right time, he may even say so! he also offers you things you need but in surplus. you need a pencil? have an entire stationery set. Having trouble with this fighting form? i’ll teach you everything i know about brazilian jiu jitsu. hungry? here, have this as a snack and if you’re still hungry maybe we can get boba.
