He's surprised when you admit your feelings for him. He didn't believe that anyone could love him, much less even care about him in the slightest.
He's not vocal with his feelings, he doesn't really know how to be, but he shows he cares in various ways.
He's way softer with you than he is anyone else. He's not as cold and apathetic when it comes to you, you get to see a whole other side of him that nobody else does.
He'd call you pet names, such as "darling", "baby", "sexy", "hottie", etc. Baby would have to be his favorite one though.
Touch starved af
He secretly loves it when you touch/kiss his scars. It makes his heart flutter every time you do so—he'll never admit it though.
His love language is gift giving. He'll randomly show up with something expensive that he totally bought. Saw some expensive clothing a few days prior? He's got it. Want a new watch? New phone? A plushie? He's getting it for you.
He has to be touching you at all times when you're in public, weather it be holding your hand or wrapping an arm around you.
He absolutely adores your body, especially your thighs and. They're his favorite pillows.
He needs affirmation from you. Hearing how much you love him, how you don't mind his scars, how you want to be with him—it makes him feel all warm inside.
If you're afab, he's like your personal heating pad when you're on your period. He'll hold his hand over your stomach and heat it up. He's also a lot more gentle with you during this time.
He tries to cook for you sometimes—he's not very good at it, but he tries.
You're the only person he truly trusts. He's so much more relaxed when it's just you and him together.
It's most likely something to do with his possessiveness, but seeing you in his clothes drives him absolutely crazy.
Manages to keep calm when jealous for the most part, but if anyone ever dares to hit on you, they're dead.
Shigaraki
He's completely clueless when it comes to romance prior to meeting you, so he wasn't exactly the best at relationships at first.
He's a quick learner, so he quickly learns what he should and shouldn't do (he pays a lot of attention to you, he just hides it)
He is extremely careful with you. He's absolutely terrified that he'll hurt you.
He refused to touch you for a long time until he got his gloves. Once he started wearing them, he practically never took his hands off of you.
His love language is physical affection. He's also extremely touched starved, much like Dabi. He wants needs to feel your skin against his.
He loves it when you play with his hair. It's surprisingly very soft, so you don't mind.
He loves your chest, it's his favorite place to lay his head. Your heartbeat is the most comforting sound to him.
He likes having you sit on his lap while he's gaming. He'll wrap his arms around you and rest his chin on your shoulder. He squeezes you when he gets mad if he loses a game.
Wants to hold your hand when you sleep, but is too scared too.
Recreated the league in the Sims 4. You accidentally discovered your Sims were dating before you actually got together in real life.
Most of your "dates" consist of just laying around playing Minecraft or some other game together.
Gets jealous when other people touch you. Who are they to put their disgusting, tainted hands on someone as perfect as you?
Toga
You're constantly covered in bite marks and cuts.
She loves going shopping with you, it's one of her favorite activities.
Love language is words of affirmation. She'll constantly praise you, telling you how much she loves you and how perfect you are.
Dates would consist of going out to malls, painting each other's nails, doing each other's hair, doing each other's makeup, etc.
You met her by accident. You were taking a shortcut through an alleyway and happened to run into her. She was immediately awestruck by you. You could almost always see her out of the corner of your eyes. When you both joined the League, the two of you struck up a romantic relationship.
She steals your stuff a lot. You'll find her wearing your clothes, your perfume/cologne, your body wash and shampoo. She uses one of your shirts as a pillow case.
She gets jealous very easily, even more so than Shigaraki and Dabi. You're hers, and she is yours.
Loves cuddling with you, will do so anywhere, anytime.
She's always holding your hand when you're in public. She just loves you so much, she wants everyone to know you're together.
As mentioned before, her love language is words of affirmation; any sort of praise from you is music to her ears. She goes even crazier than she already is for you when she hears those words come from your mouth.
You're always the one to initiate kisses. She doesn't mind kissing, but she's too busy biting you to really want to kiss.
She wants to be by your side 24/7.
Mr. Compress
Total gentleman<3
He has the most experience with romance out of the League, he knows what he's doing.
Love language is acts of service. He loves doing things for you. He'll cook for you, clean for you, and just overall take care of you as much as he can.
He's definitely the type of man to open the car door for you, like he actually refuses to let you open the door yourself. He will lock the door if you try to open it yourself.
Kisses the back of your hand a lot. He'll do that thing where he'll kiss your hand and move up your arm to your neck.
Always calls you "darling" or "sweetheart."
He likes bringing you to very expensive and fancy restaurants with the money that he totally made in a very legal way.
Will give you massages whenever you're sore.
He absolutely worships you. Your hair, your face, your body, your voice, your scent, he loves everything about you and he's not afraid to say it.
He'll get you almost anything you want. Just say the word and it'll be yours in no time.
He will literally die for you, you mean so much to him. He tells you this all the time.
Will get you your favorite flowers on your birthday. Don't like flowers? No worries, he'll get you something else. Anything for you.
Bonus: Hawks
Despite everyone believing he's a playboy, he's never actually been in a relationship.
He randomly shows up at your place out of the blue. There's been times when you've come home and he's just sitting on your couch like he owns the place. He did it so often that you just gave him an extra key.
It didn't take long for the public to find out about your relationship. He didn't try to hide it at all. Why would he? Hell, he'd scream it from the rooftops.
He likes bringing you random tiny gifts. He'll come home with a shit ton of trinkets and souvenirs as gifts for you. Half the time he won't even know what they are, he just thought they looked cool.
Dates with Hawks would probably be more casual. It's not going to be anything too fancy—unless you want to go somewhere fancy, he won't complain—but he'd at least take you somewhere nice.
Cuddles on the couch are a must. He'll pull you onto his lap and wrap his arms/wings around you.
Usually sleeps with his head on your chest or stomach with his wings wrapped around you. He mostly lays on his stomach because of his wings, but occasionally sleeps on his side. If he's laying on his side, he's big spoon.
Gets jealous over you pretty easily.
He gets pissed at interviewers when they bother you. They often pester you with pretty personal questions about your relationship. He's always quick to tell them off.
He has you as his lockscreen on his phone, which is just one of many pictures he has of you. He just adores you and wants to be able to look at your pretty face at any time.
Loves wearing matching clothes with you. Definitely has matching Hello Kitty pajamas with you.
Never a dull moment when you hang out with Dabi and the rest of your friends
part 2
“Move up.”
You shuffle to the left as Dabi plops down next to you. You’re currently all shoved onto Shigarakis couch, half watching the movie on his Tv and half chattering about whatever. You’re squeezed between Dabi, whose eyes are looking at the TV but not really watching, and Toga, who’s flicking through a Teen Girl magazine, absentmindedly filling out the questionnaires on the back. Shigaraki is sprawled on a loveseat, eyebrows furrowed in concentration as he plays some game on his switch. Twice is leaning on the arm of the chair next to him and giving very unnecessary tips that Shigaraki does not need. Spinner is lying down on the floor. You think he’s exhausted after his football training, but he’s usually sleeping any time you guys hang out, so you’re not too concerned.
You don’t really look like you fit in with this friendship group. They’re weird enough as is. Spinner has this weird obsession with amphibians and bright clothes. Shigraki always has gloves on because of his bad eczema and he’s always scowling, and Toga’s cute aesthetic completely opposes her love of all things gore and violence that she’ll tell to anyone who’ll listen. And Dabi, whose face was more metal than skin from all the piercings he has. That, and the mystery that surrounds the burn scars that litter his skin.
All in all, it was a pretty rag tag group. You were glaringly normal compared to them. No weird habits or affinities, but none of you cared. You can’t even remember how you joined their group but you know you don’t regret it. Some of their activities weren’t exactly your forte. You do walk away whenever they decide that spending money on stuff is too much effort, or when they’d rather stay in an abandoned parking lot half the night then get in bed for school. But despite all of that, you always meet them halfway. Shigaraki’s parents are never really home and so you always find yourselves lounging around his house every other day. You watch movies, order pizzas, finish your homework. Whatever you feel up for.
Today, your eyes are trying their hardest not to flit to your right. Dabi is so close to you right now. His thigh is pressed into yours and it’s so warm. You’ve learnt that that is always the case. You remember one night after a party he’d walked you home. Even through the layers of your coat and dress, your arm gripping his had heated you up against the cold autumn air.
You adjust your position and he glances at you, but he doesn’t move. If anything he gets closer, bringing his arm up behind the couch to rest behind your head.
“Guys, would you say I like my men edgy but fun, or preppy but unique?” Toga hums, biting the end of her pencil.
“Don’t care.” Shigaraki mumbles.
“Rude. I think edgy but fun.” You say.
Twice frowns, shaking his head. “No, don’t you remember that Deku guy you liked? He was definitely preppy but unique.”
“No, he was more like. I don’t know. A nice guy.” Spinner ponders from the floor.
“He was a pussy.”
“Dabi, don’t be mean, he was nice!” Toga whines.
Dabi just rolls his eyes and you giggle. You lean forward to read the page she’s on. Apparently, Toga is about to find the ‘guys she’s totally in tune with’. You point to one of the teenage boys imprinted on the page, all fake smiles and box dye hair.
“He looks like he could be totally in tune with you.” You wiggle your eyebrows.
Dabi leans forward over you to get a better look. You can smell that woodsy and smokey smell that always follows him.
“He’s too emo.”
“You’re one to talk.” Toga mutters, and Dabi smacks the back of her head.
Toga sighs and abandons the page and keeps flicking through the magazine. You yawn. It’s only seven pm but you’re tired. You’d stayed up all last night with Dabi on the phone. It was sort of a tradition the two of you had. You’d watch a movie together, the two of you counting down to sync up your Netflix on whatever movie you were watching. Somehow, you’d stayed up talking all last night. It wasn’t unusual for that to happen but after a long day at school it’s all adding up. You lean your head against the back of the couch on Dabi’s arm.
“The movie not catching your fancy?” He asks.
You smile slightly. It’s something stupid and full of violence, the kind of stuff both of you hate. “No. It’s awful.”
“Of course it is, Shiggy picked it.” Dabi rolls his eyes.
You go to grab the remote and Dabi does too. Your fingers touch, only for a second, but the heat blooms in your hands. You both apologise, clumsily, but Dabi picks it up regardless and starts flipping through channels.
“Hey, they have a truth or dare page! Let’s play!”
It’s a testament to how bored you all are that that catches your attention. Toga slides down on the floor and spinner and twice join her. Shigraki looks unbothered but he still turns his switch off and sits up. You and Dabi stay on the couch. Funnily enough, despite the extra room, the two of you don’t move, legs still pressed up against each other.
“Truth or dare? A bit childish, no?” You whisper quietly enough that nobody but Dabi can hear you.
“What, you scared?”
“Shut up. I’m scared of nothing.” You flex your arms and Dabi smirks.
“It’s been ages since I’ve played. Isn’t there meant to be a forfeit if you don’t do the truth or dare?”
Dabi nods. “Yeah, usually.”
“What’s ours?”
“You have to kiss me.”
You turn your head away so he doesn’t seen the flush on your cheeks. Flirting is nothing you’re not used to with Dabi. Any woman he speaks to is unfortunately a victim of it. Despite his whole punk ‘don’t talk to me’ look, Dabi is undeniably attractive. There’s something so obvious about it. Like if you look at him for just a second more than you’d think to, it would all jump at you; his soft hair, the bright blue eyes, and that boyish grin. So you’re not really fussed by all his flirting. You’ve been there, done that. It’s Dabi at the end of the day. Nothing means anything with him.
“You wish.” You push him away as he pouts his lips at you.
Toga claps her hands. “Okay! Who’s going first?”
“Me!” Twice springs up from his seat, excited. “I pick dare.”
“Daring choice! Okay, so. Go onto instagram and like every highlight of the first person that you see.”
Twice was not happy about that, considering the girl that popped up on his page was apparently ‘someone he was interested in’. But his mood lights up quickly once Toga passes him the magazine so he can ask a question.
And you carry on like that, getting through the group. Shigaraki reluctantly plays a ‘Kiss, marry, kill’ with some of the less attractive teachers at UA, Spinner eats a spoonful of sriracha.
“Dabi. Your, fuck, it’s your turn.” Spinner fans his face while Toga giggles at him.
“Truth.”
Dabi waves off the boos from the rest of your group. Spinner hushes them and reads the first truth on the page. “If you had to marry one person in this room, who would it be?”
“Y/N.”
He doesn’t hesitate in the slightest. Your name slips off his tongue like he didn’t even mean it to. His face looks surprised for a split second before he glances around the room.
“Uh, okay. Your turn to ask a question.” Spinner hands him the magazine.
You’re still slightly dumbfounded. So is Toga, because she is narrowing her eyes at Dabi very suspiciously. He notices her out of the corner of his eye and raises a brow.
“What?”
She says your name questioningly. You look down at your lap because the loose thread on your jeans is suddenly very interesting.
“Do I need to explain myself or something?”
Toga sighs, propping her knees up and leaning her head on them. “No, you’re okay. It’s your turn.” She leans her head up and it thumps against your leg. You run your fingers through her bangs and she smiles.
“Truth or dare?”
“Hm. Dare.”
Dabi grins. “Daring choice.” Toga sticks her tongue out at the horrible impression of her voice. “Wait, which one do I pick?” His eyes flit over the page of options.
“Uh, we’ve just been going down the list. I think we’re on number four?” Twice says.
Dabi nods. He opens his mouth to speak, but then he stops. Clears his throat, and tries again.
“Kiss the most attractive person in the room.”
You groan as the others start cheering.
“Finally, this is getting interesting.” Shigaraki laughs.
“Don’t get too excited, she’s not kissing you, Shiggy.” Dabi scoffs.
“Fuck off.”
You huff. “Why do I get the creepy one?”
“Hey, I’d gladly kiss someone than eat what I had to.” Spinner grumbles, still nursing a bottle of water.
“Okay. Okay I’ll do it.”
They’re all looking at you expectantly. You know who it’s going to be. Of course it’s going to be Dabi. You’re sure they all know it too, because the others are just looking at the two of you on the couch, giving no other signs of being ready for a kiss. You swallow once. Turn to your side and he’s already looking at you so intensely. The corner of his mouth lifts up slightly.
“Let’s get this over with.”
“Aw, don’t act like you don’t love this, baby.”
You decide that instead of telling him to shut up you’ll do it instead. You grab the scratchy materia of his stupid band tee he always insists on wearing. It almost hurts when your mouths meet, and his hand immediately cups your cheek, warm palm almost covering your whole face. You’re sure the kiss isn’t meant to last this long, but you feel his teeth bite your bottom lip and you have to push away before you start moaning in front of your friends.
You break apart, breathless. Dabi’s lips are red and look freshly kissed and you guess you must look the same. You feel your face heat and you turn to look at the others who are all looking with different degrees of shock and smugness (the last one being Toga).
“Right.” You grab the magazine from his hands. “It’s Toga’s turn?”
The rest of the night goes by quite quickly. You all soon grow bored of truth or dare, which doesn’t get any more exciting after your kiss. Which you can’t seem to stop thinking about. You and Dabi immediately fall back into normalcy but something niggles in the back of your mind. It was just a kiss, but. Does Dabi kiss everyone like that? It must explain why he gets around so much. If a man kissed you like that you can only imagine how he can do everything else to you.
But you try to ignore that. Focus on the fact you’re braiding Toga’s hair or maybe listen to the story Twice is telling you about someone at his work. Someone orders a pizza and you bug Dabi until he passes you a slice. He gets the cheesiest one in the box, like he knows you love, and you grin your thanks.
The night ends swiftly after that. You all help Shigaraki clean because that’s the only condition he sets if you all use his house as a hangout spot. Toga catches a lift with Twice and Spinner leaves on his bike. Which just leaves you and Dabi. You stand on Shigaraki’s driveway, your foot kicking a rock on the floor.
“You walked here?” Dabi asks, shrugging his coat on.
“Yeah. Regretting it now.”
“I’ll walk you.”
“Thanks.”
He just makes a noise, gesturing for you to start walking. The night air is cool. You wish you’d worn something warmer. You can’t complain though. You love autumn. The leaves crunch beneath your feet, streetlights illuminating the path. The sun is just about set, and the sky is orange, pink, purple.
It's moments like these that you’ll know you’ll remember forever. It’s weird. You remember random things like an old lady you saw on the bus home one day, the slice of red velvet cake you’d bought at some random cafe. Little, irrelevant things that you can’t help but store. But moments like these, where the setting sun catches on Dabi’s skin, and your hands brush close to each other that they almost touch, you don’t think you could ever forget.
“You going to Hawks’s party next week?” He asks suddenly.
“Uh. I guess so.” You say.
Dabi quirks a brow. “Don’t sound too excited.”
“It’s not that, it’s just.” A breeze blows over and you rub your arms. Curse short-sleeved shirts. “His parties get too crazy for me. But I haven’t seen him in ages so I’ll probably go. I miss him.”
“Mhm.” He says, suddenly standoffish.
“Are you going?”
“I guess. I just miss Hawks ever so much.” He raises his voice so it’s all high pitched. You glare at him.
“I do not sound like that, you weirdo. And I do miss him. He’s so busy now that he started playing on the school team.” You shiver slightly.
Suddenly, you feel something warm envelop you. Dabi places his jacket across your shoulders. The warm leather immediately warms you.
“Aw. You’re such a cutie.” You grin, slipping your arms into the sleeves.
“Fuck off. I’ll take it back.”
“You wouldn’t.”
He doesn’t respond to that so you know you’re right. The sleeves fall over your hands and you flap them in the air. You always forget how much bigger Dabi is than you. Even now, he’s almost two heads taller, even with his horrible posture.
“You look stupid with that on.” He says.
“I’m warm, though. Sacrifices have to be made.”
Soon enough you reach your door. He watches as you fumble for your house key before brandishing them out your bag. You go to take the jacket off and he waves you away.
“S’fine, just give it to me tomorrow.”
“If you’re sure. It’s kinda cold out.”
“I’ll be alright.”
You both stand there then. Just looking at each other. Part of you thinks that maybe you should bring up the kiss. Is it worth bringing up? Did it even mean anything? You decide against it, only because that soft look on his face is so rare that you don’t want to do anything to ruin it.
“Thanks for walking me home, Dabi.”
“Touya.”
You tilt your head slightly. “Who?”
He smiles slightly. “It’s my name.”
Oh.
“Oh.”
“You can- You don’t have to call me Dabi. You can- if you want. I don’t really care.”
You think he does care. Very evident by his stammering, something you don’t think you’ve ever seen him do. It’s cute. You don’t look into why he’s given you this privilege. You’ve heard Shigaraki and maybe Toga call him Touya before, but some part of you always knew it was a line you shouldn’t cross. Not anymore, though.
“No, I want to. Touya.”
He breathes heavily. He’s looking at you the way he was before he kissed you on that couch. Your eyes dart to his lips, and you know he saw, because he does the exact same.
“I- I should go. Goodnight, Touya.”
He nods. “Night.”
You lock the door behind you, hang up your keys. You’re not ready to ruin your friendship because of a look. A truth or dare kiss that probably means nothing.
The leather of his coat feels sticky on your skin as you walk yourself to bed.

he smells somewhat sweet, which you don’t expect at all. he smells like bubblegum, strange mix of cotton candy and fresh apples. it’s not a sickening sweet scent, rather nice one. nobody including him knows why, because his shower gel is like typical men shit, so it’s a secret to everyone. he doesn’t use anything more than that, no perfumes or such. he’s kind of aware of how he smells like because everyone tends to get closer to him whenever league seats together, and it drives him crazy. sometimes he smells like plastic when he spends a lot of time in his room. sometimes it’s something more dusty. he never smells like blood, which is unusual for lov members, but kinda explainable by the nature of his quirk.
dabi
his natural scent is terrible, and he knows that. he spends a lot of time in the morning trying to get rid of it by cleaning himself over and over. he’s already a clean freak, and whenever he hears the smell it just drives him up to the wall. he would’ve never tell that to anyone even under death sentence, but he’s kind of ashamed of it. he’s aware he reeks burnt flesh, and it’s constant, it brings everyone to throw up, him included. so he actually does a lot to hide it, he cares about that more than anyone in the league. usually after all his shenanigans he smells okay, kind of typical men shit, those volcano rage deodorants or something. the thing is, he runs so hot, any scent doesn’t last long on him. again, he wouldn’t tell that to anyone ever, but he’s suffering because of it, and everyone around him also does. compress was the most subtle about it and kind of helped him to find another options to just cancel his scent alltogether, so now for the most of times he doesn’t smell like anything at all, which is odd, but still better than before.
toga
you woud think she smells nice, flowers and candies? wrong, because she reeks blооd and steel. she likes to put on a perfume every now and again, but she has a very...eccentric taste, so it might be something sweet and spicy and also smelling like pure blооd. she also likes the smell of salt, she likes how strong of a scent it is. her room smells nice though, something fresh and light and clean. she also very much enjoys the scent of a newly changed bed linnen sheets.
spinner
he smells straight up nice, something warm and fuzzy, it reminds you of a sparkling heat and a summer sun. you can never clearly tell, what exactly he smells like, but it’s a really, really enjoyable scent. his room smells awful tho, because he’s nasty like that.
twice
he smells like a typical dude who discovered his favourite perfume in 8th grade and hadn’t changed since then. considering the situiation, he smells nice, especially when put against someone like dabi or even shigaraki sometimes. he smells like wood and salt, and even if he himself prefers something fresh and strong, it only gets warmer on him, which actually suits him better. doesn’t care about smell that much, but can’t handle the thought someone might think he stinks.
compress
he smells rich. even with the cheapest shit he owns, he himself smells rich, and he likes that. he likes strong and heavy scents, which may last a long time on him. he also likes sweeter scents, something with tabacco in it or vanilla in some form. he makes every scent look good actually, it’s just his natural ability. his room also smells the nicest, it’s the coziest of all. very big essential oils enjoyer. he actually knows a lot about the impact of it on the health and shit, so he kind of helps others with headaches and insomnia by that.
kurogiri
he smells like freezing water, that one you see on a winter day, when the air is drizzling and it’s so, so cold, air almost tasteful in your mouth. it’s kind of sweet, but not really, more in a subtle way. he smells very fresh, almost freezing, it might tingle your nose a bit. when he’s angry, he smells like smoke and sparks and fireplace, and you can never put a finger on how he changes it so easily.
Tomura Shigaraki: I think, as much as I am not fond of this, that Shigaraki would enjoy listening to edgy music (and I think he would do this specifically to appear edgy). So, stuff like Marilyn Manson, Mindless self indulgence, Nine Inch Nails or Insane Clown Posse...
Dabi: Alternative rock, post-punk or even just indie, I think he's got that TR/ST, Interpol, The Neighbourhood or even Chase Atlantic music taste, because I think he's into the mood and intensity of their songs.
Toga: Again, very fluid, as anything with Toga. It could range from many different genres, but her main go-to artists could probably be Florence + The Machines, Kikuo, Lykke Li or Melanie Martinez (probably her older work though, like Crybaby or K-12).
Kurogiri: I think Kurogiri likes to listen to calm, perhaps even emotional music - so classical music it is. Erik Satie, Antonin Dvorak, Antonio Vivaldi, Pyotr Tchaikovsky or Bedrich Smetana.
Mr. Compress: Mr. Compress would listen to something that matches his drama-oriented nature, so I think he'd be a fan of musicals - eg. Hamilton, Les Misérables, Wicked and obviously The Greatest Showman.
