MHA FIC: Birds of a feather flock together

Desc: theres a new PE teacher at UA, what's not to like? Hes a retired underground hero, his quirk is awesome! But he doesnt like certain groups of people, specifically mutation quirks. This is a problem for Tokoyami and he confides in his mentor about it. (Also in this AU All Might was the PE tecaher)

@ashtonistevibe come get your juice. Seriously though if it wasnt for you I wouldn't have finished this thing. I started it in December and fir some reason yesterday just sparked me to write more today and here we are with a 6,700 word fic. Also sorry the ending is kinda wonky.

___

Note: I usually use they/it pronouns for DS but I started writing this back in December of 2020 before I did that so he/they pronouns for dark shadow in this story

__

"So All might really isn't coming?" Sero asked as he slipped on his gym shoes. "Nope, hes helping out with some legal stuff right now so till the court date hes not allowed to come in contact with the Hero course during school hours" Midoriya explained. Even he didn't know the full reason why Allmight wasn't there but he told all he could to his friends. "Wonder who our teachers going to be, flex tape pass me the Axe" Bakugou said as he was tossed a spray can. He applied way, way to much but, hes a sweaty boy.

"Its gotta be someone who is good with hand to hand so maybe Mirko? I saw her hanging around the teachers lounge the other day" Shouji added as tied his shoe laces. "Maybe, but she would let us wear our costumes right?" Midorya said and started his mumbling tangent. Whomever this new teacher was didn't want them using there hero outfits as Aizawa had instructed then not to change into them before he left for the teachers lounge

Tokoyami didn't pay much attention, dark shadow was requesting sweets in the ridiculously deep voice he could do. No matter how many times Fumi said no the creature of darkness wouldn't listen to him. He bent down to put his socks on, unbeknownst to him Dark Shadow was creeping across the locker room floor and snagged Sato's protein bar. "Hey give it back!' Sato pressed. Dark shadow meirly laughed him off and hurried back, chattering as he did so but Fumikage didn't seem to notice it. He simply grabbed his things and hurried out of the locker rooms out to the gym.

It was a strange feeling, usually when hero training came along everyone would be ushered outside to the training grounds. But here they stood in a normal gym where the Gen Ed kids played basketball and volleyball. Soon Tokoyami and Dark Shadow were joined by the rest of the boys but something weird was going on but he couldn't put his finger on it. Tokoyami spaced out as he started thinking about other classes since the teacher was seemingly not there yet. That's when he was tapped on the shoulder by Sato. He turned and looked at him "Greetings Sato, can I help you?" He asked. Satou chuckled "Tokoyami no need to be so formal man, I just came to tell you that your quirk snagged my protein bar" he said "it just looked like you didn't notice" he told him.

Tokoyami felt a wave of embarrassment wash over him "I'm so sorry, he was pleading with me for sweets I didn't realize he took your snack, Dark Shadow come here and apologised to Sato" he scolded. Sato shook his head "No no it's okay, I have other ones, you dont have to make it come out" he said to him. Tokoyami but back to urge to correct him into saying "He" instead of "it" but refrained from doing so. He could see the glint of fear on Sato's face when he mentioned bringing Dark Shadow out. "Very well, I will buy you another at lunch tomorrow". Sato was about to reject the offer but was cut short by a man walking out of a door and into the gym.

"Good morning students!" The teacher called out with a smile on his face. His smile was bright, his face gave off a kind, friendly vibe to it. His outfit was vibrant. Especially his cape and Tokoyami could hear Midoriya mumbling about who this guy was from half way across the gym. Though his hero outfit reminded him do much of someone else, the knight armor and large flowing cape....Aoyama, the guys outfit looked like Aoyama's. Tokoyami knew what Aoyama's hero outfit looked like by memory, the thing was coated in shiny glitter paint and with certain bird attributes he often tried to hide he really really liked shiny things. And Aoyana was indeed dazzling, but this guy wasn't.

He listened as the hero started to talk "Well let's start with introductions shall we?" The man stepped forward, his metal boots clanking against the floor. "I am Hikaru Yatsu, the capture hero: Snow Globe" he spoke with pride. He ran his fingers through his long brown hair and tied it back in a pony tail "Today you will not be using your quirks in combat, this will be a test of your pure physical strength". Tokoyami did not like the sound of that, not including mineta he was the shortest and weakest compared to the other boys and list of the girls. "Though I do need to know your quirks, so let's start at this end and work our way down" he pointed to the right side of the line. Tokoyami was relieved that he wasn't first, but also didn't like being the last.

It went on with people introducing themselves by name and explaining their quirks. Tokoyami observed him as people were introducing themselves. He really, really did not like the look he got when Tsuyu introduced herself. He prayed in his mind that this guy wouldn't be like that, maybe he just didn't like the tongue thing?.

Next up was Kouda, Yatsu stared at him, waiting and raised an eyebrow "Well?" He asked. Kouda opened his mouth to speak but only a whimper came out and he looked down. "Speak up I can't hear you" he said sternly to the student.

"Sir hes mute sometimes" Hagarakure interrupted "Kouda's quirk is communicating with animals" she explained for him. He gave her a grateful look and she replied with a thumbs up back. The teacher didnt seem all to impressed "I thought he was going to be a rock or something, anyways next" he said, ignoring the concerned looks people were giving to Kouda.

Sato introduced himself, explained what his quirk did and then it was Tokoyami's turn. The teacher started talking the second Sato finished. Tokoyami didn't want to say anything so that was fine with him, but Shoji didn't like that. "Excuse me sensei but you forgot Tokoyami" he spoke up. Snow Globe looked over with an unreadable expression.

"Oh, I just assumed his quirk had something to do with flying? Bird head and all" he said.

Tokoyami held his tounge and shook his head, flying? He didnt even have wings!. Staying silent was the best thing to do in a situation like this, he'd learned that after years and years of it. "No sir, my quirk is Dark Shadow" DS poked his head out from under his shirt and said hello. "While I do have bird like features i assure you my bird qualities do not affect my quirk aside from his shape" he explained. Snow Globe meirly nodded and went along, explaining what they'd be doing that day and such.

Hand to hand combat, no quirks allowed unless someone had a mutation quirk they couldn't control. The rules were simple, anything was allowed as long as it wasn't biting or a cheap shot on a guy. Everyone would be partnered up and tested on their strengths. If a quirk was activated on accident it was automatically the opponents win. Tokoyami was worried, when he was getting hurt Dark Shadow always wanted to defend him and when he couldn't Tokoyami had a bad habit of squaking and making other various bird noises. He hated it but it was part of him that he couldn't control, no matter how good he was at masking these desires.

Tokoyami was even more displeased when it was his turn, he was being pinned against Ojiro, the kid known for being ripped as hell under those clothes he wore. He stared at the floor they'd be using, it was just the boxing ring the gen ed kids used but for some reason it was scary to Tokoyami, a wide open space with nowhere dark to hide. He didn't like it. He watched Midoriya pick up Jirou like a paperweight, still gushing apologies for hitting her so hard in the face. Jirou didn't seem to mind very much and just wanted a tissue for her bloody nose. The teacher announced that the next people should go.

Tokoyami took a deep breath as he walked into the ring he glanced back at his teacher, he tried to smile and wave to be seen as friendly even though he rarely did it to his class mates. He found out a long time ago that if you dont give them a reaction and act like what they say doesn't affect you then they will ignore you.

Tokoyami felt the adeline rushing through his veins as he started squabbling with Ojiro. He thought he was doing well, he could hear Shoji cheering for him on the sidelines, it made him feel good. But just as he thought he was going to push him over he was tripped by a tail and his skull was dragged into a headlock. He squaked loudly as he struggled and before he realized what was happening Ojiro had let go and was yelling obscenities, but Tokyami hadn't let go, he couldn't he was stress gripping onto Ojiro's wrist.

The whistle was blown and Tokoyami felt utter confusion untill he looked at Ojiro. He was bleeding and trying to get Tokoyami off of him. He recognized the metallic taste in his mouth, blood. He bit him, oh God he bit him like a damn animal. "Ojiro! My apologies I did not realize- I am so so very sorry" he said, trying to let go of him. Yatsu blew a whistle "You! get over here!" He barked. Tokoyami couldn't look at him, he was focused on trying to let go and eventually he did. Ojiro stumbled backwards and held his wrist, Tokoyami could see a bruise forming "I'm so sorry-" Tokoyami squaked again when the back of his head was grabbed by the feathers "Off" the teacher demanded.

Tokoyami got off the floor and went to go sit by his other class mates as Ojiro was ushered to the nurse office. The feathers on the back of his head were broken, he had to get them out, they itched and ached horribly but snow Globe was there. He reached for the back of his head but stopped when he saw their new teacher walking over to him. "Tokoyuga" he said. "Tokoyami" the teen corrected him "Yeah yeah, come here" he said.

Tokoyami hesitantly got up from his seat and walked over "I'm very sorry what I did to Ojiro was uncceptable, I was acting on instinct" he said. Yatsu scoffed "Yeah I know, you have those...animal instincts dont you?" he said "Come, stand infront of me, since I can't trust you with basic rules like not biting you will sit in this bubble for the rest of class" he said. Tokoyami did as he was told with a reluctant glare. "Would you rather I muzzle you?" The teacher asked and he quickly dropped his gaze.

He didn't like the ball, he could still hear and see everything that was going on but all he could smell was himself. But it would be over after class right?

It hadn't stopped, it had been two weeks and Tokoyami wanted to tell someone about it, but the rest of the class liked Yatsu, they thought his quirk was amazing and he often told them stories of capturing villians before his retirement from being a pro. They often talked about how cool it was to have another underground hero be teaching them like Eraserhead. So it continued, it felt like every class period he was given a reason to be put in the bubble or be isolated from the rest of the class and his grade started to fall because of it.

He didn't want to upset his classmates, it was fine he could deal with it on his own. But it was getting annoying hearing the teacher click his tongue whenever Tokoyami went to preen his feathers after sparing. There wasn't enough time to do it in the locker rooms and while Yatsu never said anything really mean about it, his judging eyes were always on Tokoyami and he'd make comments about his feathers and affinity for shiny things, since be couldn't stop staring at Aoyama during sparing sessions. The back handed and loaded compliments were an issue to, "Pretty good birdie" or "You're a smart kid for a bird brain". But he could ignore those. By far the worst thing he did was how he grabbed him, with the students if one wasn't paying attention then Snow Globe would grab them by the hair and turn them around. No biggie, but it was a big deal when he grabbed Tokoyami since his grip was hard enough to snap a few feathers. When Tokoyami brought this up Yatsu meirly nodded and said he'd stop, but he didn't.

Tokoyami took a deep breath as he walked into the Hero commission building looking for Hawks. The man wasn't at his agency or apartment and Toloyami was starting to get worried about his whereabouts since they were supposed to meet at four and it was already five thirty. He ran his fingers through his feathers, wincing when he grazed over broken ones, he just hadn't had the time to pluck them out yet since hero training as his last class that day. He walked up to the front desk "Pardon my intrusion but do you know if my mentor is here?" He asked. The desk woman looked him up and down "You looking for Hawks little pigeon?" She asked. Tokoyami nodded, ignoring the pigeon comment "Yes I am" he said.

She sighed and pointed "Go down that hallway to your right, hes in a meeting right now" she told him. Tokoyami thanked her and headed in that direction. He say down in a chair outside the office and waited, doing his homework as he did so. He wanted to pick at the itching on his head, but he was in a public place, there were no trash cans in sight and he doubted they'd like feathers all over the floor.

He got a good chunk of his english done before the door opened and a very pissed off looking Hawks came out. His anger faded as he slammed the door and looked over "Tsukuyomi?" He questioned. Tokoyami nodded "Yes, you said you wanted to meet me at four, it is now six" he said. He wanted to ask what had ruffled Hawks feathers, but decided he'd do so later away from the commission.

Hawks frowned "Gee kid I'm sorry I didn't realize it was that late, well I'm about to go grab some dinner since it's a friday night and all, you wanna come? I'll pay" He asked with a pleading smile. How could Tokoyami say no to that? "Sure I will accompany you" he said and stood up. "Great! I'll follow you kiddo, got any preferances?" Hawks asked. Tokoyami thought about it for a minute "How about Korean barbecue?" He looked at Hawks who seemed to light up at the idea. "Yeah! I love that stuff!" In reality he lived eating his meat raw but he could make it look cooked at the Korean places. "Alright, follow along then, I know a very good place that is fairly cheap" the bird headed boy said and started walking with his backpack over his shoulder.

It wasn't every day that he and Hawks got to chill out and hang with each other but he appreciated those days. Hawks was like an older sibling to him someone he could look up to when he couldn't look up to his own parents. He shoved his hands in his pockets and walked out the doors. Hawks followed close behind, but it wasn't long untill Hawks noticed the feather damage as they walked down the sidewalk. He knew what it felt like to have broken feathers stuck in skin "Hey Tsukuyomi, have you not been grooming yourself lately?" He asked.

Tokoyami grew a bit stiff when he brought that up, he hoped he wouldn't notice, he decided to play dumb. "Yes I have been grooming myself" he told him and quickened his pace. Hawks knew what it looked like to be lied to "Dark Shadow tell me what happened" Hawks demanded and kept following. Dark shadow poked their head out from under Tokoyami's hero costume "Fumi got his feathers snapped during sparing when he got grabbed" they said. "Silence Dark Shadow!" Tokoyami scolded, flustered as all hell.

Hawks crossed his arms "Tsukuyomi! You know better than to leave broken feathers in your skin!" He scolded. Tokoyami's feathers puffed up as he tried to stay calm "I know I just haven't had the time" he said and kept walking. "Then sit down, I'll pick them out for you" Hawks instructed him. Tokoyami shook his head "No thank you, I appreciate your offer...but...Hawks?" He turned around and Hawks was sitting down on the curb "Come here, you're not taking those out at the restraunt" he huffed.

Tokoyami really didn't like this but nonetheless he sat down in front of Hawks and let him preen the feathers at the back of his head.

Hawks really didnt like the sight of this, to many feathers were broken for this to just have been sparing, and to many tiny feathers had been damaged or lost for this just to be a one time thing. Tokoyami rarely was ever in close range combat. "So who'd you fight with today?" He asked and plucked a feather. Tokoyami bit his tongue to keep from making a coo, it felt so nice to have someone else pluck feathers, he guessed this is what it feels like for others when someone scratches their head for them.

"Just with Momo, she went for a cheap shot and made a flash light" he said bitterly, Hawks could practically hear Dark Shadows whimpers from under the cape.

"I see" he said "So, how'd this happen then?" He asked and flicked the top of his head.

Tokoyami tended to and was about to tell him hut restrained himself. "Hawks... when we're at dinner can I tell you something important. Its personal?" He asked.

Hawks smiled "Of course! You can tell me now if you'd like" he offered but Tokoyami just shook his head, saying it was a private affair and he didn't wish to speak of it out in the open like this.

So Hawks finished up relatively quickly, but carefully as he didnt want to hurt him. When they started walking again Tokoyami had told him "You have my gratitude for what you've done for me here today". he tried not to laugh at Tokoyami's way of saying thanks. The kid was so extra over the top and he loved it. Soon they got a booth in the restaurant and started looking over the menu as they sat down in a booth.

Tokoyami took off his cape and set it aside on the leather seats of the booth and Hawks did the same with his jacket, but kept his gloves on of course. At first Tokoyami would've been weirded out by it, but after working with Hawks for so long he wasnt phased, he only saw under the gloves once and understood why he preferred to keep his hands hidden. Bird features weren't pretty, people liked a handsome man with wings popping out of his back, they didnt like other bird features like feathers mixed with hair, scaly hands and feet or talons. In Tokoyami's eyes, wings were cool, a bird head ontop of a human body was not.

"So are you going to tell me what's going on or are you just going to keep staring at that salt dispenser?" Hawks asked. Tokoyami snapped out of his daydreaming and looked back up at him "Oh uh...well" he had to explain it but why was he so scared?. "We got a new PE teacher, I'm sure you're aware of the court case All Might is in now, and due to the nature of it he isn't allowed around UA during school hours so they had to hire another teacher" he paused and looked at Hawks. "Everyone likes him, hes a cool underground hero with a cool quirk that makes bubbles to capture people".

Hawk's features dropped, he knew exactly who he was talking about why the hell had Nezu of all people allowed him into the school to teach? He had met Snow Globe on a few occasions and overheard him talking to other Heroes, mainly complaining about people like Gang Orca, Miruko and himself. To be frank he didn't like people with mutation quirks a whole lot, mainly animal mutation quirks. And with Tokoyami's bird head and other bird features he stood out like a sore thumb.

"When he came we had to fight each other quirkless and I'm not physically very strong" he paused, unsure of what Hawks would think of him. "I was so focused on not getting hurt that I...I- a bird noise came out, I squaked and bit Ojiro and my hands locked up in a stress grip so he couldn't pull away, I was squeezing to hard and I hurt his arm really bad but I couldn't move my hands and" he took a deep breath. "My apologies I shouldn't be venting to you like this, I just don't know who else to tell since everyone likes him so much" he said.

Hawks looked ready to commit murder, he was about to ask him to go on but was interrupted by the waiter "Excuse me are you ready to order?" She asked. Hawks picked up the menu, Tokoyami made his order and so did Hawks before the woman left. Tokoyami sat in silence while Hawks waited for him to continue. "Tsukuyomi it's okay I don't mind, can you continue the story" that wasn't a question it was a command.

Tokoyami fiddled with the menu in his hands for awhile "Well, remember how I mentioned he had a bubble quirk?" Hawks did not like where this was going. "He put me in the bubble for the rest of class, when I tried to preen my feathers he looked at me with this look- he didnt say anything but he just looked grossed out and I don't blame him" he said. He averted his gaze "Every time I'm in class it seems like he puts me and Dark shadow in the bubble or away from everyone- and it isng just me! He tries to isolate the physically mutated kids from the others-" he sniffled. "And when I make a bird noise he looks grossed out and tells me to cut it out and I don't blame him, it sounds strange but I can't control it when I'm taken by surprise...thank you for listening" Tokoyami said and continued staring down at his empty plate.

Yep, Hawks was ready to commit murder. This guy had crossed a line. "Havent you told Eraserhead?" He asked.

Tokoyami shook his head "No, while I trust Aizawa sensei with my life I am- Well you see to put it plainly, I'm scared he won't take it seriously, I'm probably over exaggerating anyways, ive been told I'm always over dramatic" he said.

Hawks stared at his student for awhile, the whole reason he had gotten Tokoyami as his intern was. because birds of a feather flock together. Tokoyami had bird tendencies that Hawks himself wasn't allowed to show people, he wasn't allowed to make bird noises like screech, caw, coo or anything like that, he couldn't let the tiny feathers that grew in his hair grow, he had to keep gloves over his scale hands and talons which were always cut to short and god forbid let anyone see his bird feet. But when it was just him and Tsukuyomi in private he'd occassionally let a coo slip from his lips, wear shiny earrings and even eat raw meat like he did when he hung out with the league of villians. So you could only imagine the rage that formed in him when he found out his pupil was being told his noises were gross and that the basic need to preen his broken feathers was being looked down upon as something gross.

"Fumikage" he said, using his given name "Your noises are not gross, you doing the basic need to preen your feathers is not gross and nothing about your bird qualities is gross, they are simply just you" he spoke with seriousness. Tokoyami twiddled with his thumbs "Hawks please do not lie to me, with your mutation you have wings, wings are cool and people like wings, people don't like a sentient quirk fused into a person with a bird for a head" Tokoyami told him. That broke Hawk's heart to hear him talk so lowly of himself.

The waitress came by and dropped off the meat, be thanked her and without thinking started munching in some pork without cooking it, damn did it taste good. Dark shadow popped out from behind Tokoyami and snagged a peice of meat to munch on aswell "Can we eat this raw?" He asked. Hawks nodded "If you don't get sick from it sure go nuts" he said.

Tokoyami really didn't feel like eating but he picked up a peice of beef and munched on it. Hawks cleared his throat to speak again "Who cares what other people think? If you go about your life fretting about something like the head you were born with you'll get nowhere" he stated. "A hero has to be confident, even if that confedence is faked you have to save face for those around you" he told him gentilly.

Tokoyami listened to him "I know I shouldn't care but it's hard not to when it's the first thing people notice when meeting me" he said.

Hawks took a deep inhale "Well...what about your mom and dad? They fell in love with each other right? One of em was able to overlook the others appearance-" Hawks was shocked as he was cut off by laughter. Tokoyami and Dark Shadow were laughing, his little ebony darkness dementia raven ways were laughing. "What? What is it?" He asked.

(Taking this from the canon, twisting it a bit. Yes Tokoyami was canonically born a bird and became a person)

Tokoyami finally composed himself "Hawks I dont have parents I was born a bird" he said. He could practically see the "Hawks.exe has stopped" screen appear.

"What?" Hawks asked, dumbfounded.

"I was born a bird and just one day started growing human parts one day, I don't know nor do I wish to know the details but soon I was a baby with a bird head and I was put in a foster home" he explained.

Hawks looked horrified, but said nothing as his mind wandered. "So, are you still in foster care?" He asked.

Tokoyami shrugged "Kind of? Aizawa is technically my legal guardian while on UA campus but if you're asking if I was ever adppted the answer is no" he explained. Hawks bookmarked that in his mind, he decided he wanted a little brother.

The rest of the night was spent chatting about miscellaneous things, Hawks offering to take him flying again and so on. But Hawks was hatching a plan in his mind as to what to do about that PE teacher.

___

"Are you certain? I apologize but I dodny see anything like that in his resume" Nezu said with interest. Hawks sat in his office, explaining to him exactly what Tokoyamu had told him a week prior.

"I'm certain, my intern wouldn't lie, especially not about something like this" he explained "He told me in a moment of weakness after I had to preen his feathers, Yatsu crushed them when grabbing him" he explained.

"I see, well Hawks, I'll let you supervise, how does that sound? Heres my plan...".

__

It had been a full week since Tokoyami had told Hawks about what happened and yet nothing had changed. He was loosing hope that his PE grade was ever going to climb back up to its former glory. He was the last to emerge from the changing room just behind Shouji. He stretched and walked over to the starting line for warm ups.

Though he could sense something was somewhere in the room, watching, looking and keeping an eye on him. He hated the feeling but he couldn't shake it when class started.

Keigo stared down at his pupil from the gym rafters. He'd gotten special permission from Nezu to supervise. And by special permission he means he threatened him into letting him.

___

Class went along as usual, but it was sparing day with no quirks again. Tsuyu already had to sit out for 'talking back' during class yesterday when she protested that she should be allowed to use her tounge in a training exercise. Tokoyami wasn't sure he could do it, due to these things happening he was more angry and lately Dark Shadow had been out all the time, more protective and aggressive than they usually were. "Fumi I don't like this" he said, tugging at the cloak at they were paired up against Todorki. "What's the point? We're getting in trouble anyways, let's just go apeshit and kill-"

"Dark Shadow!" Tokoyami said abruptly, straightening his posture and stiffening up. He glanced at his friends before turning away and whispering to his quirk "no, we arent going to kill anyone, you still want to be a hero with me right? Then we have to keep our cool and that includes you" he said sternly.

"I hate this, I hate PE! It's such a dumb class and you always get hurt!" They said angrily.

"I know you dont like it and I don't either but we must be civil-" the whistle was blown and Tokoyami turned his attention to the ring, watching Shouji and Kouda fight was a hell of a good time.

_

Keigo hated that look on Yatsu's face. He was watching the battle with disgust and intrest. That's how a certain commission scientist used to look at him, the one that complained about people with "ya know, zoo quirks" as she always put it. Eventually Shouji was pinned to the ground and Kouda reigned victorious. The boy grinned ear to ear, he'd been working on his strength lately and being able to take down Shouji was a huge deal in the class.

"Haha good job boulder!" Snow Globe said, using the nickname he'd given the boy awhile back and giving him a pat on the back. He'd 'nicknamed' a few of the students based on appearance.

"Thank you sir" Kouda said quickly with a shy smile.

"You'd think an octopus would be stronger than that huh?" The teacher jabbed his thumb towards Shouji who was on the bend drinking water.

"Haha yeah I guess" Kouda said nervously but the thing he called Shouji left a sour taste I'm his mouth.

Keigo refrained from clapping and instead just smiled ear to ear, giving a thumbs up to the boy dispite not being able to be seen. He watched with interest as Tokoyami and Dark shadow walked into the ring with Todorki. The two were excited to fight eachother since they had been workout buddies for the past couple weeks since Izuku started working on legs with Iida more often.

"Ready for a..." Todoroki paused and thought to himself 'How do I do tough guy talk, think...what would Bakugou say?' He thought for awhile before finally saying "An ass wooping?" He asked.

Tokoyami laughed at the idea "See if you can keep up Shoto-" he was cut short when the whistle was blown. That's weird. They hadn't even shaken hands yet-

"Disqualified!" Yatsu's words rang like a bell in Tokoyami's head.

"What? We havent even fought yet" Todorki argued.

"Tokoyuga has his quirk in use" the teacher said, pointing to Dark Shadow, who was hovering just above Tokoyami.

"What?! I can shrink back in I'm sorry! I just I up give Shoto a handshake! Fumi's grade has dropped so much already" Dark Shadow protested

Tokoyami sighed deeply, feeling his face heat up as his grade was revealed "Silence Dark Shadow! leave it Todoroki its fine" he said and started to walk off the mat, hearing the murmurs of his classmates. "I suspect you'd like me to go sit over there? Or in the bubble? Or would you like to muzzle me instead?" He asked with venom, tired of all this bullshit.

Keigo took this as his spot to make an entrance. Seeing how unfairly the situation had went down. He flew down from the rafters and stood right next to the ring "Hey kiddos!" He said with a beaming expression.

Tokoyami froze in his tracks. dear god no. Why hath he been forsaken? Why was his mentor here? "Hawks!" Dark Shadow squealed with excitement and ran? Flew? Over to Hawks for a hug, dragging Fumikage behind him rather harshly.

"Control yourself Dark shadow!" He scolded them.

"You want a hug to don't lie Fumi!" They laughed and kept their arms (?) Around Hawks as he hugged them back.

Snow Globe scowled "I'm very sorry Hawks but you're interrupting my class period" he said with a huff and crossed his arms over his chest. "What do you need?" He asked.

"Oh nothing much, Nezu just wanted me to pop in and spy on you Snow!" He laughed jokingly. "Ya know he found out about some stuff from your past I guess and wanted me to come check it out, but I guess its not like what he suspected, just have to ask your students about it is all" he shrugged and turned to Dark Shadow "Hey bro ya gotta let go of me for a bit, badass moment ya know?" He said. Dark shadow pouted and let go of him, shrinking back to Tokoyami.

Snow Globe got very defensive and raised his eyebrows "You have no authority to do so-"

"Go ahead, call Nezu right now and he'll tell you I can do this" Hawks said, his wings on edge and his piercing gaze directed straight at the elder.

Snow Globe took a deep breath "Go ahead, I don't see how anything can possibly be this important that something like you can flutter into my classroom and interrupt my lesson" he stood off to the side and smiled at his students with an apologetic gaze. "Be nice to Mr. Pigeon over here" he mocked.

Hawks glared at him and took a step forward "Who here by show of hands has felt discriminated against in PE class for the way they look?" He asked.

The chatter stopped ,eyes were on certain individuals. Dark Shadow of course bolted up and started waving his hands wildly "Me! Me and Fumi! We have! We told you at the restaurant remember?". Tokoyami had never looked more humiliated in his life, this was happening because of him.

But after Dark shadow raised his hand Mina looked over nad hesitantly raised hers "Yes he calls me a slug or alien a lot" she said hesitantly. Murmurs erupted around the room but soon Shouji and Kouda raised their hands, then Tsuyu and Hagakure and finally Ojiro.

Hawks took put his phone and quickly took a picture "Do each of your mind coming and talking with me out in the hallway for a tesitmony? Away from everyone else?" He asked. The children nodded and one by one went out to the hall with Keigo. Yatsu never looked so pissed off, he didn't dare utter a word and instead stormed off to his office.

_

"I'm a frog person not a toad!" Tsuyu vented in frustration, twiddling her thumbs "I just- I didnt want to say anything since everyone else likes him kero" she explained and sniffled.

"That's exactly what all your friends have been saying Tsuyu, thank you for being able to tell me all of this okay?" He said to her and put a comforting hand on her shoulder.

"You're welcome mr. Hawks, but Mr. Yatsu won't get hurt from this will he?" She asked. Even through this the girl still had a heart of gold.

He shook his head "Hes going to be fired of course but I dont think he'll get physically hurt" that was a lie, the second Dabi found out what happened Snow Globe was going to be toast. But she needed comfort right now. "I think I've got everyone I need, looks like the bells about to ring, you should head back in" he said. She gave him a quick hug and thanked him before hurrying back inside.

After the bell rang and the students shuffled off to their next class, Hawkz headed into the gym.he told the next class it was a study hall before heading to Yatsu's office. He walked in and closed the door, his cheerful demeanor was gone and all that remained was a harsh scowl.

"Are you happy? You got me fired?" Yatsu asked with anger "Do you know how childish andpetth that was? All because I laughed at you at a photo shoot-".

"You didn't just laugh at me, you were using slurs to describe my friends" Hawks corrected him. "And I didn't do this because of a stupid grudge, my pupil came to me with an issue, Tokoyami never comes to me with issues, you hurt him physically and mentally like you'd I'd with those other students! Dont call me petty when you're the one taking out your anger on children just because they look different!" He snapped. "I hope you take a long look in the mirror and fix it Snow but untill then stay the hell away from my kid" okay that came out wrong.

"Leave Hawks, I would like to pack my things in peace" the other said and started packing up his things.

______

"Pistachio please, in a chocolate cone" Dark Shadow asked the person behind the icecream counter.

"I'll have Strawberry and Carmel with peanuts and bird seed on it please" Tokoyami said and pulled out his wallet.

"No put that back Fumi" Keigo scolded and turned to the cashier "Can I get three scoops of triple fudge in a chocolate cone with seeds ontop?" He ordered and pulled out his credit card. Handing it over the three got their treats and sat down to eat, the other two thanking him.

"I apologize if this question offends you but why are we eating icecream on patrol? Hawks you cannot use hanging out with Dark shadow and I as an excuse to get out of work" Toloyami pointed out nd took a peck at his cone.

Keigi just laughed "C'mon guys can't we just celebrate? That shitty teacher got fired! Plus I have a question or two for you guys" he said and ate at his cone.

Tokoyami waited for the questions but they never came. "C'mon what is it?! Don't keep us waiting" Dark Shadow complained and leaned on the table.

"Well-" Keigo wiped his mouth "Remember how you guys are in foster care?" He asked. Tokoyamk visibly gog excited, he rarely ever did but he felt like he knew where this was going.

"Yes we are aware" he said.

Keigo laughed a little "Well I was thinking about it and what if I took you guys under my wing? Like as my little brother and little sibling?" He asked. "You could stay with me at my place during the holidays, nothing much would change between us but you'd just see more of me" he explained and licked some icecream that was coming off the cone.

Dark Shadow just burst into tears right on the spot and Tokotami couldn't look happier "I think we would like that, I'm sure things can be arranged with my social worker" he said. He tried to keep his cool but he was bouncing up and down with excitement.

"Cool cool, we'll see what we can do".

Made this like a week ago but didn’t post it here because I kinda forgot about Tumblr for a bit so I’m posting it now. Anyway, take my head canons of Bi & Trans Kouda because Kouda is my comfort character & I love self projecting onto said comfort characters.

Also I really like how the flags he has on have turned out. 

[shouta-aizawow]

Given the nature of Kouda’s quirk, why is his costume red and yellow?

It would make much more sense if he was dressed in more earthy colors like greens and browns.

His whole thing is talking to animals. He’s more likely to work in more rural places or places with lots of nature and not as many buildings.

With colors that help him blend in to the environment, he’d be able to talk to animals and not get caught by villains as easily (ofc, I think he’d be better as a rescue hero, but if he were to fight villains, blending in would give him a higher advantage)

He’s literally dressed like 2/3 of a traffic light. He’s asking to be caught.

When he gets older and/or joins an agency, changing the colors of his costume is probably gonna be the advice of his employer(s).

ch. 318

Lets. Talk.

I haven’t been able to get the last line of the chapter out of my head and it makes me smile every time I work through it ahhhh!!!

First things first, Bakugou was too pretty in that last frame and that’s saying something because I’m not even a simp for him (aizawa and dabi are more my liking)

SECOND OF ALL “I found him, guys.” Let me repeat that. “I (Bakugou Katsuki) found (Midoriya Izuku), guys (??????)”

Like, how fated could they be?!!!!! I’m screaming. But let’s continue. If you can’t see how much character growth Bakugou has gone through, don’t talk to me. He has done tremendous growth in the course of the manga and I’m so proud of him. But, in saying that, who is he referring to when he says “guys”??? Because in my head this is how it went down.

As soon as all of class 1-A found out that Deku was gone (and in my head they are all in the common room) Kirishima just looks around and goes, “round 2?” and they just start planning no questions asked.

But, going even further, specifically, who is the recon team. Because there is no way all of 1-A was able to go and get Deku, so who were the chosen few?? Obvi Bakugou, and I feel like Kirishima was there too, same with Todoroki and Uraraka, but who else? AND DID TSUYU LET THEM GO??? Because remember how she let them have it when they came back from saving Bakugou??

But also imagine if this was the time for background characters (who honestly need more love and already have my heart) to shine ex: shouji, kouda, and tokoyami. (I’d want to add Ojiro and maybe Sato, but I don’t know if in this particular situation their quirks would be the best, but regardless I love them so much.)

My brain is going in circles theorizing who all is there and I’m living for it!
