[But it don't make no difference, now. And no-one's listening, anyhow. And lists of sins and solemn vows. Don't make you any friends.]

I have been dying to ask how the MC and Aizawa might have met in “Solemn Vows.” It’s such an excellent fic that really showcases how hard it can be to be romantically involved with a pro hero.

The “Solemn Vows” couple!!! I’m so happy you’re asking about them! I have a couple of WIP docs for potential follow-ups but have just never gotten around to actually finishing them, so it’s nice to be able to revisit them even for this because I love them so much. ❤️

Their first meeting has a surprising “meet-cute” quality to it. MC is actually an architect, which is why she works such long hours. 

One night, you leave the office late and right when you’re only a few blocks away from your apartment, someone snatches your bag, which contains your laptop so of course you start screeching holy hell for the thief to “GET THE FUCK BACK HERE OR I’M GONNA KILL YOU.”

Thankfully, Eraserhead is just finishing up patrolling nearby and is there to stop the thief and return your bag. Knowing it’s too late for you to be safely walking home alone and seeing that despite the strong front you’re wearing, you are shaken by the whole ordeal, he politely offers to walk you home. The entire time, he can’t help but think you look familiar although he can’t place why. 

But the closer the two of you get to your apartment, he realizes that you’re also getting closer to his apartment until you both stop outside your building. You profusely thank him, telling him that he saved the project that you’ve been working on for months and that you consider it more valuable than your life. And then you leave, but his eyes follow you and he realizes that the door you eventually stop in front of is only two doors down from his own apartment. 

A few days later, as you’re getting home from work (at a much more reasonable hour), you see a familiar mass of black hair from the corner of your eye and you look up to see your neighbor from a couple doors down leaving his apartment. 

The two of you make eye contact and freeze, unsure of how to handle the situation.

But then you simply smirk and the rest is history.

Marcus reached out and set both hands lightly on the other's shoulders. "Esca, I should never have asked you to come with me into this hazard when you were not free to refuse. It is like to prove a wild hunt, and whether or no we shall come back from it lies on the knees of the gods. No one should ask a slave to go with him on such a hunting trail; but — he might ask a friend." He looked questioningly into Esca's face. Esca tossed the slender papyrus roll onto the cot, and set his own hands over Marcus’s. “I have not served the Centurion because I was his slave,” he said, dropping unconsciously into the speech of his own people. “I have served Marcus, and it was not slave-service . . . My stomach will be glad when we start on this hunting trail.
