Your personal Tumblr journey starts here
Don’t get me wrong here. I’m not saying your characters can’t be familiar with therapy keywords. But the use of it in fanfic is just killing off any sort of real, emotional stakes in certain fics. *cough* the my hero fandom
I’ll be real with you; I don’t want my characters to approach a situation with an acute awareness for any possible triggers or emotional responses in an attempt to build rapport with another character who has experienced severe trauma and/or abuse. And sure, let’s say that it is a professional, whose job it is to approach these situations. That doesn’t mean you have to write them like a mental health textbook vs a textbook victim of trauma.
For example; “Aizawa stepped back, not wanting to trigger any sort of trauma response from the abused teenager.”
Yeah, sure. Aizawa is a professional who, as a professional hero, probably has education in dealing with situations like this. But the way it is written is clinically detached, cold, and also way too professional from a man who has probably attended a total of one therapy session on mandate after witnessing the death of one of his best friends (which he never got over btw).
When you want to write a character who is attuned to other people’s needs and fears, try using less therapy bingo words, and be more descriptive of the emotions of the scene.
Instead; “Aizawa carefully stepped backwards, attempting to show he meant no harm. He knew how easy it was to scare a starving alley cat, you would be surprised how the same logic applied to a starving teenager.”
See? Isn’t it so much more soulful? So much easier to connect with? Sure, the first passage got the point across: Aizawa is aware that the kid he’s approaching is likely a victim of something traumatic, so he is approaching it as such. But the average human doesn’t have the dialogue of an occupational therapist, so writing situations like the characters are occupational therapists, kills off any sort of relatability for readers who don’t attend weekly therapy sessions. And even for people who do, it feels more like sitting in the armchair instead of absorbing yourself in the worlds and stories you’re trying to tell.
I’m not saying to ditch the mental health awareness altogether. Sure, having emotionally stunted characters create for interesting stories, but you can tell just as compelling of a story without having to resort to textbook wording. Instead, use that therapy foundation to build something more around your characters. Because using the therapy speak is just the same as telling, and not showing.
With that, good luck with your next hurt no comfort fic, and happy writing!
If you get hurt the mark appears on your soulmate in the same place. You finally found your soulmate after seeing him in a press conference on the news.
(Imagine below the cut)
Realizing that your soulmate was a pro hero you had idolized for years was like a dream come true.
Sure you were a fully grown adult, but that didn’t change the fact that you had to take a moment to freak out.
Then reality caught up to you and you realized one little fact.
You had no way to contact him.
Sure you could just try to talk to the next pro you saw about getting his contact info, but what pro in their right mind would give that out freely?
So that’s why you’re where you are now.
It’s been a week since the camino ward incident when you first saw the identifying mark on your soulmate and now you were standing in front of U.A high.
You knew about the barrier, so you were stuck waiting for someone to notice you.
Just your luck, a familiar eccentric blond appeared on your left, talking animatedly with another quieter blond man, and you realized that this was your chance.
“Hey, is there any chance that I could speak with one of your colleagues? I think I’m his soulmate and I couldn’t figure out any other way to find him.”
Present Mic took one look at your face and screeched.
You immediately thought you had done something wrong but it turns out the guy was ecstatic.
Mic personally escorted you all the way to the break room while the tall man, who you now know as Toshinori repeatedly apologized for his outburst.
By the time you were in front of the break room you had been told that Aizawa loved coffee, cats, his students and sleeping.
You thought that was adorable
When Shouta saw the cut under your eye, he had to take a moment to process the knowledge that he might have just found his soulmate.
Toshinori dragged Mic out of the room to let you two have your moment.
His hand held your face so carefully as he examined the mark, and then he lifted his sleeve to show you a familiar mark that mirrored the one you had gotten when you fell off your bike when you were nine.
The two of you spent every spare moment together after that.
Hisashi often made comments on how perfect you were for each other.
Being with Aizawa was a high that never ended.
Quick sketch that I made (~‾▿‾)~
One Day
(Aizawa Shouta x F!Wife!Reader)
Warnings!: Dicusses infertility, sensitive issues, adoption, miscarriages, depression, IVF treatments, angst, fluff, blood mentioned,
Summary: You and Aizawa have tried for years to have a child, nothing seems to work and you're losing all hope.
*Some people struggle with having children. This does not make anyone less than who they are as a person. You are special and loved.*
You had met Shouta in third year of U.A. You were training under Recovery Girl due to your quirk, Aura, you could heal almost any injury but you would use your own stamina to do it. He had come in to get checked out after a particularly harsh training time in class.
You were sending him side glances, and he was doing sending some your way as well. You'd caught his attention. You were so gentle with everyone, always going out of your way to make sure everyone was taken care of, even if it made you sick from how over worked you were. Of course, you also weren't scared to put people in their place.
To you, he seemed lazy, like he'd rather be anywhere else, yet he was so hard working. His quirk wasn't flashy and didn't catch alot of people's attention, but he'd been more than enough to catch yours.
Present Mic will always say it was thanks to him you two got together. If he hadn't pushed Shouta onto you that day and forced you two to kiss, who knows how it would've turned out.
The kiss had led to a confession, which led to dating, soon dating turned into marriage and being husband and wife should lead to...lead to....mother and father...
"Its negative again,"
You clutched the test in your hand, feeling your throat starting to close up as you tried to hold back your tears. Shouta wrapped his arms around you and brought you in close. He knew how bad you wanted to have a child. He shared the same dream, but he knew how hard it was hurting you. He assured you over and over again, "It'll happen one day, we just need to be patient," "Shouta we just turned thirty! We've tried for so long, I'm so tired and hurt," You sobbed into his chest, clutching his shirt tightly as he ran a hand over your back. "Maybe we should give it a rest for a little while, maybe talk to some more doctors," he suggested, you shaking your head, "They've all said the same thing, IVF is the way, just relax and it'll happen, it'll happen when you least expect it," he knew you were right, years of you being poked and tested. Even him to see if years of Hero work had done somthing to make it impossible to have children now. No more words were said as you two embraced eachother, both longing for the same thing.
~~
After the last negative test, you and Shouta had taken a break from trying. The heartbreak had finally driven both of you to almost give up. He focused back on his class and you went back to Recovery Girl who simply patted your hand in support as you explained to her what'd happened. "Don't worry my dear, it'll all work itself out," she smiled, handing you a lollipop that caused a smile to grace your lips. "Thank you," you accepted the lollipop and stuck it in your mouth. Hopefully it will get better from here.
~~
+
You stared at the plus sign with wide eyes. There was no way. It's been a year since you and Shouta had decided to stop trying for a while. This all had to be some cruel trick.
Tears fell from your eyes as you put your hands to your mouth in shock. Your knees grew weak and you slumped to the bathroom tile as hope and a new found vigor had blossomed. It was finally happening. After all these years you and Shouta were finally gonna be blessed as parents. As you placed a hand to your stomach you couldn't help but smile through the tears.
You had called Recovery Girl who asked you to come in and do a blood test to verify. And if was true. You were finally pregnant. Tears flew down your cheeks again in happiness as Recovery Girl held you in a congratulating hug. "I think Aizawa is on break right now, I'm sure he could use some news," she winked and you beamed at her and nodded. "Thanks so much! I'll be back later,"
You hurried through the school and once you reached the teachers break room you took a deep breathe to compose yourself. This was it.
Opening the door you noticed Shouta napping in his favorite sleeping bag. Nemuri waved a hello to you and smiled one back, walking up to your sleeping husband. "Honey? Shouta I need to talk to you," you giggled, running a hand through his dark tresses. He cracked an eye open and was met with your beaming face. "What is it?" He questioned but you motioned for him to follow you into the hallway.
"You seem like you're in a good mood," he grinned lazily, and you nodded with a large smile, "of course, most mothers are," you replied, his eyes widening in shock and disbelief, "w-wait.. are y-you," he couldn't finish his sentence before you squealed and wrapped your arms around him. He hugged you tight and spun you both around, a large grin over taking his face, "(Y/n), I'm so excited! We're going to be parents," his grin still held his lazy self but this was a side of him he only shows around you. "We are. We're a Mommy and a Daddy," you smiled, tears filling your eyes again as you embraced with a hug and a kiss. Everything was finally coming together.
~~
"I'm sorry, the fetus was just too weak to survive."
Those words had broken you. You'd woken up a month after finding out you were pregnant to abdominal pain and blood coating your entire lower half. Sheets and blankets stained as Shouta placed you in the tub to clean you off, you clinging to his shirt in pain and fear, "Please...Not my baby," you cried, nails digging into his chest as you tried to grasp onto reality. Why. Why did it have to be your baby. The one thing you'd prayed and hoped for.
The warm water washed away the blood, clots running down the drain as Shouta hugged you close as tears escaped his own eyes. Everything was starting to work out. The grief he felt for you and himself, the unknowing of what your future together would've looked like. Would the baby have been a boy with his hair but your kind eyes? A little girl maybe who could be your twin?
Now you sat in the drs office to follow up and get the diagnosis you'd already known. "You did suffer a miscarriage. It is a more common thing than most women realize, some women have them and don't even know," the Dr tried to inform you, yet all you heard was silence.
Bags were under your eyes and your skin was frail looking. Shouta held your hand in comfort on the ride home. Both of you sitting in silence as a way to process the loss.
It wasn't until you both walked into your house that you finally spoke, "Why do you stay with me Shouta?" The question had come out of nowhere. He turned to you and saw you staring at the ground with tears in your glossy (e/c) eyes. "I can't give you children and I killed the only one I've barely been able to have," you slowly looked up at him, his wide, dark eyes looking back at you in disbelief. "Why stay with someone whose defective?" You whispered, but it seemed to echo throughout the silent house.
Shouta hurried to you and took your face into his hands, "You are not defective. There is nothing wrong with you. Many couples struggle, but I'll never leave you. I married you. Not for children, or money, or even a pass fancy, I married you for you. I married you for the love we have for one another. Never forget that," he pressed his forehead to yours as you broke down sobbing again.
Shouta picked you up and took your to your shared bedroom. You both got changed and laid in bed together, just holding eachother close as you listened to one anothers heartbeat. You felt yourself slip into unconsciousness but Shouta stayed awake, simply staring at your exhausted person.
He knew how badly you wanted this. He grieved with you. The sorrow and guilt he feels knowing there's not much he can do but just sit with you through it all. The struggle and the pain you went through. If anyone deserved to be a mother it was you. The way you cared for the students, fed them, nursed them back to health. Even scolded them when they took certain things too far.
He ran a hand down you back and placed a light kiss to your forehead and snuggled closer to you. He'd make you a mother. One day.
~~
"What do you mean this little girl was experimented on!?" You shrieked, looking through a hallway window into a hospital room where a little girl, Eri was her name, was currently sleeping with a high sitting fever. You turned to your husband in shock, "How can someone do this to her!? To any child?" You placed a hand on the window, wishing you could be in there with her. To try and give her some comfort at least. "She's safe now, that's what matters," Shouta spoke, his arm coming around your shoulder as he pulled you in close.
A few weeks had passed and Eri had finally woken up, you and Shouta beside her the whole time. She was stronger than before, more energized. Though she was confused on some things, you and Shouta were there to guide her and help her. The real problem came when it was time for her to leave the hospital. Her quirk was too strong to put her in a care home, and was still unstable.
"Shouta. I want her here," you declared as you both got ready for bed. "I don't want her with strangers, please. Talk to Nezu, Toshi-Chan. Anyone. I want Eri with us," you were begging at this point. Shouta simply gazed at you, his thoughts turning in his head, "I'll see what I can do, let's go to bed for now,"
~~
"Eri, would you like to come live with us?" You smiled, squating down to the young girls height. "What do you mean?" She asked, her red eyes curious as they looked between you and Shouta. "You can come live with us, we have a nice house with a pretty room for you. A nice backyard where you can run and play, we want you to become apart of our family," you grinned in excitement. "Like a Mommy and Daddy?" She wondered.
You froze for a second before your lips turned up gently, "only if you want to baby, we won't force you too, but yes. It'll be like that," Eri clenched her bed sheet before nodding, tears springing up to your eyes as you asked for a hug which she granted you permission as you both embraced. You glanced back to Shouta who smiled back you. Finally.
One Day....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hiiii..... yeah wanted to cover a sensitive topic I feel like doesn't get talked about enough. Let me know what you thought about it. ❤
charecters : aizawa , you
Summary : a small fantasy of yours changes into reality with your teacher or more specifically aizawa
You sat there, the sound of the A.C drowned out the other noises in class. you bit the end of your pen slightly as you tried to concentrate on the notes Mr. Aizawa was writing on the board.
Your eyes trailed over his face, following every feature; from his stubble to his scar, nose, lips and eyes.
Black eyes stared at you as you snapped out of it and wrote down what he finished writing.
You felt your heart racing as you realized you got caught staring at him; not writing down the notes but staring at him. your cheeks bloomed a pink colour as you continued to write.
(Y/n), since you were obviously distracted, would you care to tell the rest of your peers, the third rule for this semester's lesson course?"
He stared at you, a subtle smirk formed and disappeared the next millisecond.
He raised an eyebrow at you, waiting for your response. Your mind went blank, you realized you never wrote down anything at the beginning of the lesson. Your eyes went wide as you stared at something that was next to him.
"U-uh... i don't.." you trailed off and felt really stupid as to why you didn't write anything down.
He sighed and looked directly at you, "Next time pay attention. Or you'll be staying after class as detention."
He turned back to the board.
You didn't really think not paying attention would cause you to actually be in detention.
Yea, not so long after Mr. Aizawa called you out for not paying attention you managed to get in trouble.
You facepalmed and stared at the class door knob, debating to actually go forth and stay in a classroom where you and this desirable man are alone for a whole 2 hours. Yea, nothing like 'Pure' thoughts.
You gulped and knocked on the door.
"You, wanted to see me, Mr. Aizawa?" You questioned as you walked into the classroom, you felt your breathing hitch as you seen him leaned over the desk working on yesterday's papers.
The top part of his hair tied into a small messy bun with a few strands, eyes lowered with a tired glaze and his forearms showing from his sleeves being rolled up. "yes, it's a few things actually.
I want you to see these, come closer." His tired voice. heightened your senses. You walked over to him and sat as he gestured you to. He went through the work, and you saw no actual problem to it.
After staring at the problem, you noticed how quiet it was from his side. You looked at him and seen his eyes bore into yours.

Your cheeks flared, and you cleared your throat to speak but got cut off by a paper being shown to you. It was writing about Mr. Aizawa and how he caused you to catch feelings for him.
"Care to explain?" You stayed still and looked back at him. "It was a joke." You blurted out then cringed after, God how fucking stupid are you?! You thought.
He smirked and moved a bit closer, his breath on your lips as your eyes stayed on his. "It took a while to understand how you acted different towards me from the other students."
He whispered in a sultry voice as he placed a hand on your thigh, you blushed and on instinct you squeezed your thighs together. His lips barely touching yours but just enough to feel the feather touches of his lips.
"You- BUrP BURPbURP'
You shot out of bed with sweat on your face and looked around. You stared at your MHA posters and facepalmed. "No more fanfics before bed......." You muttered and slammed your face back into the pillow.
Shigaraki : i have your student
Aizawa : which one???
Shigaraki : A angry rat that wont stop screaming "DEKU"
Aizawa : OMG HE HAS BAKUHOU
Yo! I was wondering if you could do some headcannons for Hawks, Aizawa, and All Might with a Pro Hero husband reader? I think it would be really cool if reader had a quirk that gave him the abilities of a skinwalker. He could be able to shapeshifter into his beast form, mimic voices he hears, regeneration, etc. Maybe he could be really tall (around 7ft) even when he isn’t using his quirk, and he looks creepy but is really sweet? I think it would be cool to see the medias reaction too. Sorry for the length. Thank you!!!
Shapeshifter!
Keigo Takami; Shouta Aizawa, Toshinori Yagi x ProHero!Husband!Reader Summary: A character is married to a scary looking hero who’s actually a sweetheart. How does the media react? How did they meet?
★☽A/N: It’s been a while since I wrote headcannons! I really hope I improved! Oh! I had my birthday a couple days ago! September 4, hehe! So I consider this a bit of a gift to you guys for my birthday!
Contents: FLUFF – Headcannons Quirk: Skinwalker The user can alter their physical appearance to mimic any living creature, including humans and animals. This ability allows them to change their voice, size, and even mimic specific characteristics, such as muscle structure or hair. The transformation can be partial or full, depending on the user’s control. However, maintaining a transformation for extended periods drains energy, and extreme changes may lead to temporary exhaustion or loss of control.
ˋˏ-༻❁༺-ˎˊ
Keigo Takami (Keigo)
The number 2 hero probably met Y/N when he just started his agency at 18 years old. He was on patrol when he saw a thief stealing an old lady’s purse. As the fastest, he immediately got to action, chasing the thief with lightning speed. Just before he could reach the purse, a cheetah suddenly ran into him, blocking his path and swiftly grabbing the thief by the collar with shark canine teeth.
The moment the cheetah ensured that it had disabled the thief, it suddenly changed into a tall male. He was towering over everyone who walked past, staring at him with a scared glare. Keigo figured he was perhaps 7ft (213cm) tall which practically towered the hero. He looked up at the figure, watching as he looked around for the owner of the purse.
He had to admit.
The male was tall and menacing. He had piercings around his ear, colors similar to his outfit. Takami figured he was a pro hero like himself. ‘But how did I not know him?’ he wondered. ‘Maybe an underground hero?’ he thought. Keigo just shrugged it off and walked over to him.
“Hey, big fela!” A shiver went down the hero’s spine when he saw the tall H/C haired man turn to look at him, eyes piercing through his soul. “J..Just wondering if you want me to give the purse back to its owner? I’m sure she’ll be very happy to get it back!” he managed to utter with a slight stutter.
The H/C haired tilted his head in confusion, but then his eyes widened in realization. “Oh- right!” The blonde couldn’t stop the chuckle from coming out of his throat. ‘I didn’t expect him to be so awkward!’ And he had to admit, he judged the hero too soon. His menacing looks were the total opposite to his sweet personality.
“Name’s Hawks. You?” he asked, receiving the purse from the tall hero. “Chimera.” He smiled. Hawks’s heart almost exploded!! His smile was so gentle and soft, a total contrast to his terrifying aura and looks! “So… What’s your Quirk? It’s hella unique!” Keigo commented. “Uhm… like a skinwalker..” Chimera mumbled. Takami was impressed. “A skinwalker? How cool!” he complimented.
“Thank you..” Chimera smiled.
And now they’ve been married for maybe two years? And Keigo is probably one of the happiest birds ever!
In his free time with Y/N, he would play a guessing game with him where Y/N had to transform into a person or an animal and Keigo had to guess who the person was or what animal it was! (He lost most of the time since he didn’t know much about animals… but he was excellent at recognizing people!”
The media would always talk about how scary the hero was, how he would turn into the scariest things just so he could fight. But Keigo? Total opposite! He is infatuated with how amazing Y/N’s Quirk is! Imagine being able to transform into a cerberus?!
Despite his terrifying and frightening aura and looks, he was such a sweet man! Whenever Keigo and Y/N went out together, he would scare almost everyone who laid eyes on him! The rest just glared at him with disgust, which Keigo hated.
One time, Keigo and Y/N had just got out of the 7-11 where he found himself staring at a hungry kitten. Y/N looked at him with an excited face. “Wait here!” he said before rushing back into the store. Keigo didn’t know what he was doing until he came out of the store with a small packet of cat food. His heart ached out of affection when he watched Y/N give the food to the young kitten. His soft gentle smile, a rare sight, brought joy and love to Keigo’s heart.
Shouta Aizawa (Eraserhead)
Both Y/N and Shouta probably met when they were in high school! But Y/N was in a different class which made them meet extremely late. During their 1st year, around their second semester, both class 1A and 1B were going to have their joint training. This is probably the first time he met Y/N, teaming up with him to go against another team.
Shouta looked over to his side, watching the boy who was much taller than he was. He was broad and frightening to look like. He honestly believed their team would immediately win just by having the H/C look at their opponents the way he was staring at Shouta–
‘Wait-’ He realized Y/N was looking right back at him. He instantly blushed and looked away, silently cursing himself for staring at the male. “Sorry…” he managed to mutter. He heard Y/N respond with a hum.
He turned back and found the tall male walking forward before jogging, and then sprinting. Before Shouta knew it, Y/N was sprinting and quickly turned into a peregrine falcon and flew off. Shouta noticed how he was flying so fast, as if he was flying 5km per minute which was impressive to the ravenhead.
And in a matter of minutes, their team had won!
Y/N had rendered the other team’s members unconscious and had won for his team. Shouta was speechless! Even Hizashi and Oboro who were watching from the viewer room were just as speechless as their best friend!
Shouta walked up to Y/N with an embarrassed look. Despite Y/N’s spine-chilling presence, he managed to utter a “thank you..” to Y/N. Y/N smiled at him, thanking him with a gentle voice. Shouta didn’t stop the shivers going down his spine. His gentle voice and smile was different from his looks and presence, a feeling of comfort from the H/C’s gentle voice.
And now they’re much older! Like… 12-13 years older.. And their love never faded! It even grew when they got married!
Shouta had just started the year with his new students, thankfully not expelling them like the last batch of students. He genuinely saw potential in all of them and Y/N noticed and did not regret teasing Shouta about it, much to his protests.
Y/N was seen as a creepy person by the news, for his towering height and his death glares. But Shouta knew it wasn’t true. Y/N was actually a big softie and sweetheart. He was a gentleman to all women, growing up with a mom who made sure he treated women with respect.
Like one time, they were out to eat and they saw a woman walking alone with a scared expression. Y/N, with no hesitation, walked over to the lady. She was about to scream for help because of how scary he looked, but she was calmed down by Y/N’s gentle and soft voice. He ended up guiding her to her car with no troubles.
Such a gentleman! No wonder Shouta is obsessed with his husband!
Toshinori Yagi (All Might)
The number one hero! A symbol of peace! Toshinori was proud of himself for finally making his dream come true after being Quirkless and being given One for All by his mentor. Not only that, but the blonde was happy he would’ve made his mentor, Nana, proud, bringing a soft smile to his face.
During one of his missions, he had to go to America and was partnered with one of the underground heroes named “Chimera” who would accompany him.
He had to admit. Out of all the villains he had to face, including All for One— Chimera was the most terrifying. As a tall man himself, he wasn’t scared of him due to his height, for he was taller by 3 inches but his eyes… The way he practically stared into Yagi’s soul was already bone-chilling to him and made him even terrified by thinking what sort of Quirk the H/C could have.
He was impressed by Chimera’s quick thinking and fast agility, making things a breeze. And the way the hero switched between animals was impressive! And it was on the go as well! The blonde couldn’t help but appreciate the hero more.
After the mission, All Might went up to Chimera and gave him the brightest smile. “You’re really good with your Quirk!” he complimented. Chimera turned to him with a threatening stare, giving shivers down Toshinori’s spine. “Y-You’re really impressive..” The blonde managed to let out. “I-I’m All Might.” He extended his shaking hand towards the hero with a crooked and forced smile.
The blonde was surprised to see Chimera smile. He thought his smile would’ve been terrifying and bone-chilling– So he was shocked to see such a gentle smile. It was a small one, almost non-visible, but his smile was still there, gentle and soft. And in his voice, as gentle and as soft as his smile, he said, “Thank you” with his tender smile.
ALL MIGHT IS SMITTEN! By now, in his 20 year marriage with Chimera, he had gotten used to Y/N’s horrifying appearance and eventually loved how scary he looked, with his tall appearance and hostile stares.
The public, around 10 years into his marriage, was shocked to hear that the number one hero was married to such a creepy underground hero! And Toshinori did not care, he loved the way he was!
The public, until now, are still terrified of the hero, even after he retired before his husband. Toshinori didn’t care much about how he retired, or that he still had his scary reputation. He loved Y/N and that was that.
After Toshinori retired and used his real form, he realized how short he was compared to Y/N now. It was shocking but he didn’t mind it.
Husbands for 20+ years and they’re happy as the day they first met.
Hello! Can you do a part two to the Aizawa fic where the merchant reader accepts and moves on, and then a few years later he barely recognizes aizawa when they see each other again? Thank you!
Troubles Coming Back
Street!Rat!Aizawa x Merchant!Male!reader [Aladdin AU] Summary: Years went by without a hitch. Y/N had gone his separate way, forgetting Aizawa and getting caught up in all his traveling and selling work. When he came back from a long trip after his quarrel with Shota Aizawa 5 years ago, he was unexpectedly robbed. Who’s the robber?
★☽A/N: Oooo! This will be interesting! I didn’t exactly plan to have this to have a part two so I will try my best!
Contents: SLIGHT ANGST - FLUFF
════❖════
“Y/N! It’s so great to see you!” A black-haired woman greeted the H/C-haired man with a smile and open arms. Y/N smiled gleefully and embraced Jasmine in a tight hug. “It’s been too long! You didn’t even write a letter!” Jasmine laughed.
Y/N also laughed in response. “I know, I know! I’m so sorry!” He apologized. The rest of the day was spent talking about their life while the other was gone.
The 36 year old man was shocked to hear that Jasmine had married Aladdin, a streetrat. But it made sense to him after she explained the whole story from her perspective and from Aladdin’s. He had to admit, the topic about Aladdin made him think about Aizawa…
He couldn’t believe it… He missed him?
The memories of how they ended things flooded his mind. He had shivers down his spine just thinking about it. He wished he hadn’t said all those things to Shota.
Though, it was too late to go back from what he said all those years ago.
════
He was taking a stroll in the marketplace. He wanted to buy some things that he needed for his next trip next year, like ink and paper. It was safer to prepare objects such as that since it might increase in worth when it is less in stock and more in demand.
Y/N had lovely talks to familiar faces who were glad to see him after all those years. He was quite shocked that they still remembered him. L/N had a bad reputation as a kid, always running around and giving people death glares.
The only people who actually liked him when he was still a child and teenager were the old librarian, the king, Jasmine, Aladdin, and…
Shota.
He stopped in his tracks.
He couldn’t believe he was thinking about Aizawa again. After all these years, he didn’t expect himself to think back to his quarrel with the black-haired man.
He clicked his tongue in annoyance.
The H/C-haired man did not want to think about the man anymore. All he wanted to do was to work on his work and not to work on his past broken relations. Everything that happened 5 years ago, should stay in the past, not in the future and bothering him with guilt.
“Y/N!” The man turned to find Aladdin, dressed in much more cleaner clothing than he last saw him in. He couldn’t help but snicker. “Can’t believe you’re wearing cleaner clothes! Hah!!” He laughed. Aladdin laughed along, patting his back like he used to do.
“Now, that’s just mean!” He laughed back.
The pair ended up talking about their lives when the other wasn’t present, just like Y/N did with Jasmine. Suppose the two of them were too loud, because some passersby looked at them with strange looks.
Later, Aladdin had to do something else so he said his goodbyes to Y/N and walked the separate way.
════
Finally, he ended up finishing up his shopping and got what he needed. It was all in his traveling bag.
He was walking past the alley, bright with street lights. Y/N definitely wasn;t expecting his bag to be taken away from his bag in one swift move by a passing person. But he was quick with his instincts and grabbed the bag before it was out of view.
His action caused the robber to stumble back and fall to the ground. Y/N wore his bag again and bent over the fallen robber. He wanted to memorize the face and dragged the robber to the police to report him for the thief.
He took a closer look at the face and entire look.
Long black messy hair, half of it was tied in a messy bun. Sharp cat eyes with dark circles under, black eyes staring right back at him. A dark scruffy goatee on his chin that seems to be maintained well. A single scar across his right cheek, underneath his eye.
“Shota..?” Eyes widened and mouth agape, he looked over with shock. The dark-haired man was also shocked to see a familiar face. “Y/N! I didn’t realize it was you–” Aizawa rushed to say his words, trying to pick himself up.
Y/N gave him a hand and pulled him right back up. “I nearly didn’t recognize you! Your hair gotten longer!” Y/N smiled. He didn’t even realize how much he missed his hoarse voice. He always found it annoying back then, but now… he had a whole different feeling about it.
Aizawa blushed at his comment. “Yeah… It’s a bother to cut it..” he answered, twirling a strand between his fingers. He couldn’t believe that he was seeing Y/N again! Last time he saw him, he looked messy. Now, Y/N looked much cleaner. He looked mature and wise.
The two of them just stood there in silence. In their heads, they had no idea how to talk to each other. Afterall, they end things in a heated arguement.
With a deep sigh, Shota turned to Y/N with a frown on his face. “Look,” He took a step forward. “I’m really sorry for how things ended. I know it’s too late to say this, but– I love you and I’m so sorry I said all those words to you. I never mean to say them, they just came flooding out-”
He was suddenly pulled into a deep and passionate kiss. His eyes wide and his back arched as he was pulled into a kiss by his past lover. His eyes closed and his hands rested on the side on his neck and on his hip.
The two of them pulled apart, a long string of saliva connecting the two of them, their faces flushed and colored a deep red. Shota didn’t realize Y/N was crying until a few drops of water feel to the ground. He looked up at Y/N’s pitiful face.
His eyes were staring at the ground, tears flooding his vision and falling to the ground like rain. His whole body was shaking and hiccups and sniffles could be heard from the older man. “Hey, hey–” Aizawa lifted his head with his hand, revealing his bloodshot eyes from how much he was crying.
“I’m so sorry we ended things like we did. I didn’t want to say all those things– I swear, I-I didn’t mean to!” Aizawa slowly shushes him with a soft smile. “You shouldn’t apologize. I know life must’ve been hard on you.” He pressed his forehead against L/N’s, trying to soothe him.
The two of them ended up staying in that position for a long period of time.
Both relieved the other still loved them just the way they are. Just like old times.

★☽A/N: HAHA, I’m not so good at making endings!! Let’s just hope this one goes well!
...🩸
For my request, an you write a oneshot featuring Aizawa and a male reader in an Aladdin AU please? In the fic, Aizawa is a street rat and is childhood friends with the reader. But as they become adults, their friendship/relationship becomes strained as Aizawa keeps getting into serious trouble with the palace guards while the reader tries to maintain his career as a merchant. What do you think?
Trouble
Street!Rat!Aizawa x Merchant!Male!reader [Aladdin AU]
Summary: Aizawa and Y/N had a good friendship that blossomed into a relationship. But as days went on, Aizawa started to trouble the palace which left him getting chased by the guards. A well-connected merchant to the palace can’t be associated with street rats.. Right?
★☽A/N: I think it’s a really good request! Though it did take a while for me to figure it out, but I hope you like it!!
Contents: ANGST - SLIGHT FLUFF? - ALADDIN AU
════❖════
Y/N was a well-connected merchant, having a really close relationship with the king along with his daughter, the princess.
When he was younger, his father was in charge of a small region in the kingdom before being brutally murdered by the residents’ nobles. His father and the king were close since little lads so the king offered a place for him to stay in the palace after his mother died from an illness. As Y/N grew older, he had trouble in the palace, as some of the servants saw him as a "charity case" for the King. They never treated the boy kindly and would often trick him.
Tricking him into getting out of the palace before locking him out. They would sometimes even seduce or bribe the guards into not letting the boy inside which resulted in him having to stay the night outside. Because of this frequent “accident,” he eventually built a small fort for himself. It was in the corner of the library that he was given permission to take shelter at. The librarian was a close friend of his so she allowed the boy to stay there. He made it out of pillows and such.
But during his frequent stay, it was rather lonely. Atleast.. That was before Shota came into his life. The boy ran into the library and caused a small ruckus, the librarian scolding him for being loud in the quiet space. The boy apologized and made his way into the library’s halls of books. He didn’t like reading much, but he loved reading about how things worked and ideas to cause mischief. He was looking at the books and went to the end of a hall and saw Y/N in the corner with a book in his crossed arms as he slept in the small fort of pillows and blankets.
By curiosity, the black-haired boy inched closer to the fort, carefully making his moves in fear of awakening the sleeping H/C boy. But as he inched closer, he felt his wrist suddenly get grabbed. By shock and fear, he yelled and started to swing his hand to try to get the hand’s grip off him. His eyes trailed from the hand gripping him to the face of the person. It was the sleeping boy who was now awake, his slight sleepy E/C eyes looking at him.
“Who are you?” The H/C cautious eyes watching the black-haired boy. “Why should I tell you?” The boy answered stubbornly. The black-haired boy just stayed silent in response. The now awakened boy just scoffed, “Leave me alone, will you?” He groaned, letting go of the boy’s hand and rolled over to the side to not see the boy’s face.
“You look a bit too young to be out here,” the boy commented, getting a groan of annoyance in response from the other. “You look about my age, aren’t you?” The other boy with H/C hair said in a harsh tone, still faced away from the boy. “I’m 12, you?” The timid looking boy asked. “13,” he answered back. “Oh, you’re older than me,” he realized, shocked.
The black-haired sat down beside the H/C haired boy and continued to sit there in silence for a few hours. Eventually, the 13 year old boy started to feel annoyed by the other’s company. “Would you leave me alone?” He asked with an irritated voice. “If you tell me your name then I might.” The other responded. The 13 year old sighed in defeat and mumbled his name. “Repeat that?” the now curious boy requested. He sighed again and answered with a much clearer voice, “Y/N L/N.”
“See, that wasn't so bad, wasn’t it?” The black-haired boy smiled.
════
From that day forward, those two were inseparable and would spend time with each other up until they were young adults. It’s now time skipped to their 30’s. Shota being 30 and Y/N being 31. By this time, Shota had the reputation of “the street rat” who hung around with a young boy named Aladdin. While Y/N had the reputation of a successful merchant who was close with the king and his princess.
Originally, the king wanted his daughter to marry Y/N but Y/N protested and had to admit his sexuality. The king was mad at first, clearly enraged by this information but after some time, he started to accept Y/N for his likings.
Though the king never thought Y/N L/N, a practical son to him, would love a street rat like Shota Aizawa. L/N loved Aizawa and he loved him too and started to hang out more often. But Y/N felt some sort of uneasy feeling about the blackhead’s reputation.
If anyone were to find out his relationship with the well-known thief who was friends with another thief and their monkey, his reputation as a merchant would be torn apart.
But he tries his best to spend time with his beloved. Y/N would travel out of the city and would help prosper their kingdom and its wealth. And sometimes he would make an excuse, saying he’s going to another kingdom to get some wealth for the kingdom, but in reality, he was visiting Aizawa and his friend, and the monkey of course.
════
For the past week, Y/N has been…concerned about Aizawa. He has been getting in trouble for years, sure, but now he has been troubling the guards and would always have to run away from them before he could get arrested. And Y/N ended up arguing with him about keeping a low profile.
“Just, please stop! You’ll end up in the dungeon!” Y/N said with a concerned voice. Aizawa just scoffed, “So what? I can always break out,” he said in a relaxed voice, rolling his eyes. “That’s not what I meant.” The H/C haired straightened his posture, he was clearly pissed at his response. “What? That you’re lovey dovey with a thief like me? And you don’t want anyone to know it?” Aizawa also started to lose his temper. “I..” Y/N paused, looked down in some guilt. “Of course, you’re ashamed of me,” Aizawa scoffed. “Oh, don’t twist my words,” Y/N spat with venom. “What? It’s the truth,” Aizawa spat back.
They argued for hours. Each word led to more conflict between them. They said words that they didn’t mean to say. Some words were hurtful too, commenting about their bad childhood and commenting about their personality now. It was a heated argument and it ended not how the two wanted it. It was in heat of the moment and Y/N didn’t mean it when he said,
“Maybe I don’t need someone like you in my life!” In his angered tone. But when he realized his mistake, it was too late to apologize. Aizawa looked at him with shock which turned into disgust and anger and slapped him across the face. “You’re nothing but a privileged man! Don’t ever contact me again,” Aizawa spat out. Y/N wanted to respond, desperate to apologize but Aizawa wanted nothing to do with Y/N at that moment. He left Y/N who stood there frozen, and couldn't utter a word, except two. He spoke to them with such softness, Aizawa couldn’t hear his woes.
“I’m sorry..”

★☽A/N: That’s all for this one! But would you guys want a second part? I already have an idea in mind! I know this was a oneshot but I wanted to try doing a cliffhanger! lolol
Fic Type: Oneshot (Requested) Fandom: MHA/BNHA Pairing: Aizawa x Male!Reader Prompt: Male!Reader and Aizawa are pretend dating for an undercover mission, but they have actual feelings towards each other. Word Count: 1,257 words
A knock at the door caught 💙’s attention. He was currently standing in the UA faculty restroom, staring at his reflection in the large mirror. “Are you ready?” Present Mic called out to him. “I think so.” Before stepping out, he adjusted the golden bow tie around his collar. Once he stepped out, he gave 💙 a once over. “Nicee!” The blond gave him a thumbs up. 💙’s eyes scanned the room before they landed on Aizawa. He was dressed in a similar tux. “I can’t believe you convinced me to do this.” Aizawa muttered towards Midnight. “Hey! No one convinced you to! You took up the job without anyone offering!” She shot back at him. He simply rolled his eyes.
“Are you two ready?” Principal Nexus walked to the table, placing a silver suitcase. Pushing the two buttons on the edge, the case opened revealing a few gadgets. He handed the two of them earpieces as well as a mic to attach underneath their button-up shirts. “Remember, avoid suspicion!” He waved at them, lightly pushing 💙 out the door. “Alright, alright.” Aizawa groaned. He dusted off his navy blazer and adjusted. He began walking to the limo before stopping in his pace and turning around to you. He extended out his hand for 💙 to hold. “We’re supposed to be a couple.” When 💙 didn’t move, he shook his hand a bit, telling him to hold it. 💙 interlaced their fingers together as they walked to the limo. Aizawa held open the door of the limo for his date to climb in, momentarily unlacing their hands. Closing the door behind him with a ‘thump’, Aizawa scooted next to you, turning his palm upward on his thigh for 💙 to hold. “But no one’s around.” He met his question with a glare that said ‘Do it or I’ll kill you,’ to which 💙 obeyed.
“We’re here.” 💙 whispered into the mic as soon as the objective building was in view. The receiving side muttered out a ‘Proceed’ filled with static. Aizawa held the door open for 💙, then interlocked their arms together as they walked up to the entrance. “Card?” The bodyguard spoke in a gruff voice. Aizawa looked over to 💙 who scrambled to get two fake I.Ds out of his pocket. Once he successfully retrieved the cards, he handed them to the bodyguard. His eyes narrowed as he read the cards before handing them back to 💙. He stepped aside and granted them access to the inside of the building. “I’ll be looking, stay close.” Aizawa’s arm slipped from 💙’s own as he left to explore a corridor. “How’s everything?” It was Midnight speaking over the earpiece. “We got in, Aizawa is looking for possible locations right now.” 💙 replied in a hushed tone as he paced around the foyer. “Alright, don’t stay separated too long you too!” 💙 heard Aizawa groan over the earpiece. “I know.” He replied flatly.
Aizawa emerged from the hallway once more, striding over to where 💙 was casually leaning against a banister. “Anything?” He asked the Erasure hero. “Nothing yet.” Chatter coming from the entrance caught their attention as they turned to see who it was. In the distance, the owner as well the boss of the villain group they were looking into, stood there surrendered by females in tight dresses. Aizawa pressed himself against 💙’s chest. “Talk about something.” He looked up at him with loving eyes. The sight caught 💙 off guard as he choked back his words, face heating up. “Uhh...weather right?” 💙 mentally smacked himself. “What about it?” He responded. “It’s nice?” “Really 💙?!” Midnight screamed in their earpieces. What happened next, 💙 wasn’t expecting. The Erasure hero doubled over, holding his stomach as he laughed. His eyebrows furrowed together as he watched Aizawa. “Is he...laughing?!” All the other teachers spoke in unison over the earpiece. Unfortunately, the scene didn’t go unnoticed by the Boss. “Hey hey!” He appeared behind 💙 and smacked him on the back. “The party’s not in here!” Aizawa straightened up and glared at the hand touching his date. “C'mon fellas!” His hand remained on 💙’s shoulder as he led them to the ballroom where they were currently holding a party.
While the Boss’ focus was on 💙, Aizawa slipped away from them into another hallway to search what they came there for. “Keep him distracted, I’ll keep looking.” He commanded. He heard 💙’s voice as he was conversing with the Boss which meant that he was doing as told. The hero began opening doors left and right until he finally found what he was looking for. “Documents found.”
“So, 💙 was it? What happened to your date?” The boss inquired. “Uh...he dumped me.” 💙 lied, rubbing his neck nervously. He heard Aizawa snort at his choice of an excuse. “He left you at a party?! Well luckily for you there are several people to pick from! Whatever your choice is!” His grip remained strong on 💙’s shoulder. “Haha... I dunno about that.” The boss came uncomfortable close to his face, whispering in his ear, “Or do you prefer heroes? Specifically, ones that can erase others quirks.” 💙’s blood went cold as he stiffened. Luckily, the heroes on the receiving end of the device heard everything, and they prepared to go to their location for possible rescue and backup. “W-What do you mean?” 💙 tried sounding firm. “Did he really dump you?” The boss’s eyes shone with malice. He moved his grip to 💙’s biceps.
“💙!” The door to the ballroom slammed open. “I’m sorry! Please take me back!” The room grew silent as you looked at Aizawa dumbfounded. He was never one to make a big scene, and that was exactly what he was currently doing. The grip on 💙’s arms disappeared as he watched the two of them. ‘Go with it!’ Aizawa’s expression read. 💙 decided to play along. “But you left me!” He shouted back. “I thought you deserved better!” The Erasure hero jogged up to 💙, grabbing his hands and pulling him into his chest. ‘I hate this.’ Aizawa repeated over and over in his mind. “Please, take me back.” He cupped 💙’s face, looking at him with eyes full of sorrow. A tinge of guilt twisted at 💙’s stomach. Although they weren’t actually a couple, he still felt hurt at Aizawa’s display of regret. “No.” It left his mouth before he could even think. The room audibly gasped. Aizawa’s eyes widened. On the other hand, the heroes listening in, hung onto each word that was spoken, as if they were watching a drama.
“Let’s go settle this somewhere private.” 💙 grabbed Aizawa’s tie and dragged him out of the room, leaving the crowd complaining about a conclusion. Just after the two of them were safely outside, they entered the limo. “Would you actually reject me?” Aizawa spoke before he could stop himself. 💙’s expression softened. “Of course not.” He then turned away, internally debating. Turning back to 💙, he gathered courage. “Then...do you wanna date?” He ran a scarred hand through his hair that was currently in a low bun for the occasion. 💙’s hand found Aizawa’s free one, holding it. “I thought you’d never ask.” They exchanged a small smile. They leaned closer to each other, eyes closing slightly to kiss. “Hey you do realize we can still hear you two?” The two pulled away, a visible blush dusting their cheeks. “Uh yea we knew that.” 💙 shot back, throwing Aizawa into another laughing fit.
Shouta playing with Hizashi’s hair. It’s canon to me. They play with each other’s hair
Chat, the art is blocking rn. Idk what to do

Reposting bc I don’t have a drawing today and I don’t wanna break my streak 👍
omg I totally started making post yesterday and then never hit post. It’s just been open all night 😭😭
Part two of this
And then they got kicked out bc Hizashi was too busy making out with his new fiancé to get off the table.
I was gonna add a little bonus scene of that but I ran out of time. I’m busy all day today so I can’t even make a little sketch
Anyways, I’m going on a trip. I have one more drawing saved up to post in a couple of days but after that I might not post for a few days. I will be bringing my sketch pad so I’ll probably draw on that to post but I’m out of digital drawings
More Erasermic Yuri.
I almost forgot to post today bc I’m so busy. I was in a cave full of ice. I almost lost everything in my pockets bc it all fell out. I also almost froze to death. So that was fun

He’s just the kind of guy you’d do anything for.
Shouta and Hizashi like each other but they’re also a little gay for him. But who wouldn’t be. He’s a precious cutie patootie. I’d die for him too
He’s the kind of homie you’d kiss goodnight, On the lips
I almost forgot to post today. That would’ve been bad.
Anyways. More Erasermic as usual. I’m still obsessed with them. Probably not gonna stop anytime soon (hopefully)
I like to imagine this is what happens after a long day of Aizawa not seeing his husband. He just jumps him. He really missed him. Mic welcomes it every time
Drawing character kissing is really hard so I’m trying to do it as much as possible to get really good at it. so don’t he mad at me if I post a LOT of Erasermic kissing. That’s just how the cookie crumbles
Guys. Guys. He’s gonna- he’s gonna propose. On Valentine’s Day. Stay tuned for that
Valentine’s day proposal comic coming out on Valentine’s Day (hopefully I finish it by then. I only have 5 days)
Follow me to see that! It’s gonna be cute and wholesome
Edit: here it is 🤭
Shout out to the last person who followed me for single handedly giving me back my engagement. Idk how they did it but thank you so much
@loudmicrowave thanks pookie.😫🙏
People are finally seeing my posts again
Anyways, onto the post. I don’t have much to say. It’s just them
Mic takes 30 minutes to do his hair in the morning, Aizawa takes an hour just to get out of bed, and Oboro is cheater. His hair just floats there
On a seperate note, I need Mic’s shirt
He’s very eepy
They’re taking him to class
Smooch!
It’s their first kiss.
Zashi rocking the all might socks
I have drawn those cat paw socks on Aizawa before but he’s and adult in that picture so I like to think he’s had the same cat socks for 15 years or bought new ones when those got too worn out. Either way they’re so cute and I want them
I love erasermic so much. 10/10 ship. Easily the best ship in the show
i tried posting this earlier but it didnt work for some reason and now i cant make posts on my phone anymore. anyways, i Love these ships so much.
Gyro and Mic would be friends, I fear. and i truly mean I fear. who knows what this loud, obnoxious, and stupid (but actually smart) duo would do together.
who also knows how they scored those grumpy baddies. i don't know if Johnny and Aizawa would be friends bc they seem to just hate everyone but i feel like they wouldn't hate each other, you know?
my hand hurts really bad and idk why. i think i drew too hard. i drew this like a week ago btw. i draw a bunch of little drawings in advance so i have time to draw longer comics. thats probably why my hand hurts so much. i should really take a break.
i was about to but i realized i still hadn't posted today so i stopped. i wish i got money for this. even just likes would be nice but i dont even get those anymore ;-;
i need a job
You don’t understand, they ARE her dads. She is their baby!
So yeah, Mic is great at hair and Aizawa is bad at it. That’s my headcanon. Mic better be good at hair with how he wears it in his hero costume. How does he get such long hair to stay up like that? Pure talent, I say
New discovery, drawing people braiding hair is harder than actually braiding hair. I love drawing hair tho so it’s fine
Also drawing Aizawa with a ponytail was so fun even tho it only took like 2 seconds. Idk why I loved it so much. It just looks so fluffy
That’s all I got. Please like and reblog 🙏🙏
Bonus
They’re everything to me
