  Summary

  Momo Yaoyorozu is perfect. She has no say in the matter.

  (That is, until she meets a certain purple-haired girl.)
  -
  Momo’s world is perfect.

  She knows this because it’s what her mother tells her.

  The first time, she is six and her mother’s teeth are pearly white while she sips red wine from a crystal glass at the dinner table, and she tells Momo how she made it perfect.
  …
  She is grateful and smiles with her mouth closed.
  -
  Or

  Momo Yaoyorozu has gotten used to biting her tongue. Later, she learns to hear music in a laugh.

  Summary

  I love you has never been more terrifying.
  -
  Eijirou is frozen solid, staring at his phone. He’s miles away from UA, miles away from his dorm, he is so far away from arms reach of his friends, and he is alone in his room.
   
  All he feels is dread pouring over him, all he feels is the weight of his phone in his hands. He can’t move.
   
  He reads the words over again, over and over and over again until he can recite them from memory.
  -
  Or

  Eijirou is frozen. He’s always been a coward.

  Summary

  Special - adjective

  /ˈspeSH(ə)l/

  better, greater, or otherwise different from what is usual.

  Bakugou Katsuki is special.
  -
  Everyone told Katsuki he was special, so he knew it was true.

  Fucking Deku, of course, raved on and on about how amazing he was… Hell, even his mom used to say he was special— not anymore though, because Katsuki was a big kid so he didn’t need to be babied. He was a big kid, so he didn’t need his mom like Deku did, like the extras. He was better. He was special.
  -
  Or

  Bakugou Katsuki through the years, and what it means to be special.

  [idk what I’m doing but Bakugou angst is my life.]

  Summary

  Rainy days are better when you’re not alone.
  -
  If he looks close, Kirishima seems dull almost. His shoulders are hunched in, he’s not even looking at Bakugou, and he’s shivering. It’s so different from the radiance of Kirishima he’s used to.

  Well that just won’t do, Bakugou decides.
  -
  Or

  Bakugou doesn’t like the rain. It turns out Kirishima doesn’t either.
