Tenten [7:38]
That is obviously a given, but what's going on?

Tenten [7:40]
Hello?

Izuku [7:43]
u remember the rash on my butt?

Tenten [7:45]
Yeah, did ochako check that out?

Izuku [7:47]

Izuku [7:49]
I took the pics and sent them to ocha

Izuku [7:50]
bt it turns out I typed the wrong no

Izuku [7:51]
and basically sent very inapp pics to a stranger

Izuku [7:53]
ergo my impending death from humiliation/embarrassment

Izuku [7:54]
u knw wat the worst part is?

Izuku [7:56]
the person told me I didn't look sexy at all

Izuku [7:57]
it was a pic of my butt ten! And they just disregarded it

Izuku [7:58]
talk about salt on gaping wounds

Tenten [8:00]
I have a feeling your priorities are slightly mixed up

Tenten [8:02]
Did they seem terrible?

Izuku [8:03]
apart from destroying my sexual appeal/

Izuku [8:03]
not really

Izuku [8:05]
plus they also swore they already deleted the picture

Tenten [8:10]
Great! Listen, I have a meeting right now, we'll touch up on this later ok?

Izuku [8:12]

Shouto [1:42]

Shouto [2:27]
im actually thinking about opening my own film production with her as partner

Midoriya [2:30]

Midoriya [2:32]

Midoriya [2:42]
/

Midoriya [2:43]
you toooooooo

Shouto [2:45]
ha, I only act like the people I depict. I am nowhere as brave or great.

Midoriya [2:51]
you represent people that would never get recognition otherwise. You tell the masses their stories, and you do it well, with emotion and an obvious respect. I think that's pretty great too.

Shouto [2:59]
….

Shouto [3:06]
thank you.

Midoriya [3:10]
anytime :3


Izuku [7:18]
tennnnnnnnn

Tenten [7:20]
Good evening Izuku

Izuku [7:22]
I need to rant

Tenten [7:25]
Sure, but my replies might take a sec

Tenten [7:28]
I'm on break rn

Izuku [7:31]
no probs

Izuku [7:32]
thing is, I cant believe how, human, todoroki is

Izuku [7:34]
I mean he's internationally well known

Izuku [7:34]
but whn I txt him, it feels like txting a normal person and it's weird?

Tenten [7:50]
As far as I'm aware, he does belong to the category of homo sapien

Tenten [7:52]
So you guys are still in touch I take?

Izuku [7:53]
yeah more or less

Izuku [7:55]
we txt almost every single day

Tenten [8:01]
Oh dear, you have a crush on him, don't you?

Izuku [8:04]
oh pls

Izuku [8:06]
I've crushed on him for at least four years now

Izuku [8:07]
it takes all my willpower to rein in my inner fanboy

Tenten [8:42]
I'm equal parts worried and impressed

Izuku [8:56]
I know

Izuku [9:04]
fml


Izuku [11:06]
apparently banging your head against the wall burns about 150 calories an hour

Todoroki 3 [11:08]
interesting

Izuku [11:11]
OMG THAT WAS FOR TENYA NOT U TENYA OMG

Todoroki 3 [11:15]
im gonna go out on a limb and predict that your first reaction will be to jump off a building

Izuku [11:21]
… u know me too well

Todoroki 3 [11:27]
haha just a calculated guess

Todoroki 3 [11:30]
do you often tell your friend interesting facts?

Izuku [11:34]
u could say that!

Izuku [11:35]
ive known ten since we were in high school

Izuku [11:38]
so we have some weird rituals

Todoroki 3 [11:42]
that sounds fun

Todoroki 3 [11:45]
I didn't have friends growing up, my dad wouldn't let me

Izuku [11:47]
do you have friends now?

Todoroki 3 [11:56]
id like to believe so, yes

Izuku [12:06]
then, that's all that matters.

Izuku [12:10]
and I hope that, someday, I make that list too :D

Todoroki 3 [12:18]
youre already on it

Izuku [12:24]
I think I just saw a part of my soul ascend

Todoroki 3 [12:32]
I honestly don't know how to talk to you without being the reason for your untimely demise


Shouto [3:09]
I need an unbiased opinion

Midoriya [4:32]
shoot

Shouto [4:36]
does red or blue look better on me?

Shouto [4:41]
momo and kami have been arguing forever and it's infuriating and im unable to decide on my own

Midoriya [4:43]
ud look great in both but what is it for?

Shouto [4:47]
tie colour

Midoriya [4:50]
blue the n

Midoriya [4:52]
it brings out your eye

Shouto [4:55]
blue it is

Midoriya [11:34]
U LOOKED SO GOOD IN THAT INTERVIEW

Shouto [11:59]
thank you, and good choice on the tie, momo and kaminari agreed it looked the best

Midoriya [12:02]
happy to be of service!

Midoriya [12:05]
well, I have work in the morning, so nini!

Shouto [12:07]

Midoriya [12:08]

Midoriya [12:11]

Shouto [12:17]

Ocha [9:24]

Izuku [9:31]
im falling. And its gonna suck

Ocha [9:34]

Ocha [9:39]

Ocha [9:43]

Izuku [9:46]
I love u bt ur too optimistic sometimes

Ocha [9:51]

Izuku [9:55]

Izuku [3:16]
kiriiiiiii

Izuku [3:17]
I need ur help wid something

Kirishima ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ [3:19]
zuzu my man! Wats up?

Izuku [3:23]
how did u woo kacchan?

Kirishima ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ [3:25]
ur asking me how I gt katsuki to say yes?

Izuku [3:28]
yeah pretty much

Kirishima ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ [3:31]
well it wasn't easy but katsuki eventually let his guard down and let me in. I think the key 2 it was patience. The bastard is stubborn as hell bt if u can be more stubborn, u'll win!

Izuku [3:35]
I cant determine if this info is useful to me or not

Izuku [3:37]
bt I guess that bit about patience is a pretty universal thing

Kirishima ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ [3:45]
pretty much yea.

Kirishima ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ [3:47]
look zuzu, no mattr wat, at the end of it all, just be honest. Stubborn ppl are hard to get through to, so drill it in their heads that u like them. A lot.

Izuku [3:53]
as always, I can count on you kiri 3

Kirishima ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ [3:58]
anytime zuzu 3

Todo-todo [6:20]

Todo-todo [6:22]

Shouto [9:02]
I just noticed something

Mido [9:04]
hmm?

Shouto [9:07]
you have green in your hair

Shouto [9:09]
why green?

Mido [9:12]
oh ahah! I've always been doing it this way, I dunno, messy green hair just kinda became my thing

Shouto [9:15]
it does suit you

Mido [9:16]
thank you /

Mido [9:18]
I cant decide between ur red hair and ur platinum/grey/white hair

Mido [9:22]
u looked especially amazing in the samurai movie!

Shouto [9:24]
oh thank you. I was apprehensive about pulling off either of those colors

Shouto [9:27]
I feel like im a very, grey, person. Overall.

Mido [9:40]
I don't know u very well, I agree, bt I dnt see u as grey. I see u as pastels more than anything. Subtle but still present. And besides, ur eyes are by far the most mesmerizing ive ever seen

Shouto [9:42]
its not weird?

Mido [9:45]
ARE U KIDDING IF I COULD HAVE HETEROCHROMIA I WOULD OK THANKS

Shouto [9:47]

T0d0 :3 [2:12]
MIDorIYAAAAAA

T0d0 :3 [2:14]
r u AWWKKKEKEKG

incoming call - T0d0 :3 [2:14]
missed call
incoming call - T0d0 :3 [2:14]
missed call
incoming call….

Midoriya feels groggy, and the loving arms of sleep are tempting him to give in again, but there's this noise, this annoying insistent one that tells him it's not gonna let him sleep even if he tries. Blinking into the darkness, Midoriya spots his phone on the nightstand, the screen flashing in time to the vibrations of the device. He knows it's ridiculously late in the night, but it could be an emergency.

With tear-filled eyes, Midoriya snags the device off his table and squashes the receive button with his thumb, bringing the device to his left ear.

"Hello?" His voice is thick with sleep.

There's an uninterrupted static on the other end of the phone before a voice, familiar but not intimate like Iida's or Ocha's inquires, "Is this Midoriya Izuku?"

Midoriya's brain is still muddled with sleep, but he blinks rapidly, trying to awaken himself just a little. "Yes," he answers, clearing his throat.

"Hi," the voice says breathlessly. Midoriya can hear a smile in the person's tone, and it makes his own lips tug at the corners in a small, cute grin.

"Hello." He pulls the device away and looks at the caller-id, flinching when the screen brightness blinds him painfully. When the name registers in his brain, he makes a very embarrassing noise and brings the phone back to his ear immediately.

"Todoroki?"

There's a sniffle. "Yes?"

Midoriya's heart is pounding. His palms are sweating, making it difficult to hold the damn phone, and his mouth is suddenly drier than the damn Sahara.

He's dreamed about calling Todoroki so many times, dreamed about hearing his voice and just talking to him for hours, but he didn't dare bring it up in conversation. He didn't see them as close enough, and besides, Todoroki seemed to be busy all the time. What they had was pretty incredible already, so Midoriya didn't want to risk it.

But for Todoroki to be calling him? That hadn't occurred even in his wildest dreams.

"Hi," he whispers, cupping the phone reverently.

Todorki chuckles, a smooth, warm, almost rusty sound. "Hello. It's nice to put a voice to the face and the freckles and the butt."

Midoriya feels himself blush crimson, and he buries his face in his pillow, muffling his screams.

"Todoroki, please don't," he begs, nearly in tears again. "By the way, are you drunk?"

His speech isn't too impaired, nor is he slurring his words, but Midoriya's watched enough of his interviews to know what his normal talking sounds like, and this isn't it. It's lazy, almost playful, and the s's are dragged just the slightest bit.

"Not drunk," Todoroki disagrees. "Not drunk, but tipsy probably."

Midoriya giggles.

"If you say so. Where are you?"

"Home." He drags the O in a way that makes Midoriya melt. He sounds just the way he does on screen, but better, so much better. Warm, like sun on a patch of grass, and smoother than the finest silk. Midoriya could listen to him speak forever.

"So, what can I do for you?"

Todoroki hums. "Well," he starts, "I have a thought I need an opinion on. Unbiased."

"Go on."

"Am I unlovable?"

Midoriya freezes, the playful atmosphere vanishing in a moment. Todoroki sounds jovial, but Midoriya can sense pain, even when it's masked so well. His heart clenches at the implication of the question, and a part of him is unsure about how to proceed. He doesn't want to say the wrong thing and upset the man in any way.

"Where is this question coming from?"

Todoroki scoffs. "Everywhere. I mean, I, I've always been repeatedly reminded of the fact that I was a mistake, unlike my sisters. My parents had me by mistake. Mom always told me she loved me but dad, dad just, he couldn't stand me, you know?"

Midoriya sits up gingerly, scratching the back of his head with blunt nails.

"Todoroki, mistake or not, you're alive this very minute, are you not? You're self-sufficient and successful, and you're leading your own life, a very good one. I've texted you for about two months now, and every day you make it abundantly clear that you're a human being with great character and personality. And I'm not just saying this as a fan, I'm-" Midoriya sucks in a shaky breath "-I'm saying this as your friend."

It's common knowledge that Todoroki and his father are on bad, probably horrendous terms. His father is in the film-making business as well, and he's quite popular, specializing in the more violent-action type films. But his behavior towards his son, his blatant disregard for him as an actual human being, makes him a controversial being all around. Midoriya respects his talent and skill, but not the man himself.

His little speech is met by more silence, but it's oddly comfortable. Todoroki's breathing is deep and steady, and Midoriya almost assumes the man's asleep when he makes a tiny sound, a soft hum.

"Thank you, Midoriya."

Midoriya smiles, falling back on the bed, head dangling off the edge. "Anytime, Todoroki."

"What you up to?"

"Well-"

"Wait, what time is it?" Midoriya hears some shuffling and then a muffled gasp. "It's so late, you must've been sleeping! I'm so sorry, I'll hang up im-"

Midoriya waves his free hand around in a sort of panic. "It's ok! It's ok, I don't mind. If you'd like, maybe we could talk some more?"

Todoroki grumbles, "I'd like that."

"Good," Midoriya smiles. "Now, tell me something- when actors get accidental boners while filming, what do they do with it?"

Probably not the best question to ask- in fact, Midoriya wants the earth to open up right about now and swallow him whole but then a burst of laugh, short and loud and so very sweet, resonates in his skull. It's from the phone jammed between his ear and shoulder, and it leaves Midoriya breathless, leaves him craving more.

"Not the most subtle, are you?"

Midoriya's face is home to all the blood in his body at this point, and he's so glad he isn't standing in front of the man. "Shhh you," he mutters, turning in bed and burying his face in his sheets.

Todoroki laughs again, "Are you hitting on me?"

Midoriya whimpers. "Please don't expose me so shamelessly."

"You're cute," Todoroki declares, and Midoriya suddenly wants to see him because he's sure, he's so sure the man is smiling right now, probably with crinkles around his eyes and Midoriya wants to see it because he put it there. He's still sleepy, but there's a different kind of contentment that settles within his ribcage, right under his thudding heart.

"I do think you're amazing," he whispers softly, a wave of courage washing over him. "I think you're talented and smart, you're sweet and funny, and I just. I'm glad I know you."

Todoroki doesn't say a word, but his even breathing and the soft whoosh of air that leaves him with every exhale tells Midoriya all he needs to know.

"Goodnight, Shouto," he says, before switching the phone off.

It's been a long, long night.


Todo [7:03]
hello, did I call you last night by any chance?

Izuku [7:34]
you did, and we even had a nice, long chat xD

Todo [7:47]
it upsets me that I don't remember a word of our first conversation

Izuku [7:51]
speaking of which, is it alright if we talk again? Just wanted to, uh, say somethings

Todo [8:24]
im busy right now, ill text you when im free

Izuku [8:56]
ok

Todo [6:35]
I'm done filming and im free for a bit

Izuku [6:52]
can I call?

Todo [6:56]
sure

incoming call...

"Hello?"

Todoroki's voice is crisp, cold and business like. Midoriya doesn't really like it, but he can understand the man's apprehension. If he doesn't remember last night, he's probably anxious about what he might've said, so while Midoriya feels disappointed, he doesn't let it get to him.

"Hi," he breathes, a smile breaking out on his face. Cold or not, talking to Todoroki still feels like a dream come true. "How was filming?"

"Exhausting," Todoroki sighs, and Midoriya hears a door shut in the back. "Hold on." He hears muffled voices in the background before Todoroki says, "Ok, go ahead."

Midoriya inhales sharply, "I wanted to talk about last night."

"Ok," Todoroki agrees tentatively.

"Relax," Midoriya says, "it's nothing bad per se. I just, well, you got me a little worried."

"I don't normally drink like that," Todoroki grumbles, and Midoriya giggles into the back of his palm.

"The drinking part is fine, it's the things you said that got me worried." Moving to a more private part of his department, Midoriya sinks to the ground and stares at his knees. "You spoke about your dad."

"What about him?" Todoroki's voice becomes positively frigid, making Midoriya shiver. He somehow manages to hold his ground.

"You spoke about mistakes and the like. Listen, irrespective of whether you're drunk or not, I want you to be able to confide in me. Maybe I can present you with a truly unbiased opinion. I know two months isn't a lot, but I feel like I know you. Just, all I'm saying is that you can trust me. With anything."

No one speaks for a while, till Todoroki exhales noisily. "Thank you, really." He sounds sincere, to the extent where Midoriya's shoulders slump and a smile, small and intimate, curves his lips.

"Growing up, my dad was never around." He doesn't know why he's telling Todoroki this, but once he starts, he can't seem to stop. "Mom pretty much raised me by herself. Dad would come back sometimes, but never for long enough. I love him, but only because he's my biological father. As far as I'm concerned, I only have one true parent.

Your blood doesn't define you. And besides, it's the family you make of your friends that truly matters. Being bound by blood is one thing, but choosing to be with someone is a whole different ball game."

The silence is shorter this time. "Honestly? I'm pretty lucky. Momo and Kaminari and pretty much everyone has been like family for the longest time. Plus, mother and I have been talking more lately."

Midoriya grins wide enough for his cheeks to ache. "That's great!"

"And there's also you," Todoroki adds softly, almost shyly. Midoriya's cheeks practically burst into flames at the proclamation, and he doesn't think he can speak coherently even if he tried.

"To-to-todorokiii! You can't just say that!"

Todoroki laughs again, full and just so warm, and somehow, all is right with the world.

incoming call : Todo-dodo 3

"Hello?" Midoriya sounds exhausted, even to his own ears. There's no way he isn't, not with every thing that's happened.

"Are you ok?"

Todoroki sounds so worried, and it's bloody endearing as hell. Midoriya smiles tiredly, leaning into the door of the ambulance. "I'm fine," he reassures, wincing when the cold metal bites into his skin. "Just a little banged up and bruised, but ok."

"Fuck," Todoroki swears, making Midoriya's eyebrows shoot up. Todoroki almost never swears, so he must be really scared to be reacting this way. "I was so worried! I heard about the hostage situation and briefly caught a glimpse of you running into the building and then nothing. I was so scared, fuck."

Midoriya chuckles. "I'm ok, I swear. It's my job afterall."

"Why do I get the feeling you get into more trouble than most?" Todoroki asks dryly.

Midoriya shrugs. "Beats me." When Uraraka taps his shoulder, he glances up and nods. "Listen, I gotta go, get done with my checkups and all you know?"

"Yeah no, please go ahead." Todoroki sighs. "Text me later?"

Midoriya rests his head on Uraraka's shoulder. "I promise."

Ocha [7:47]
Its pretty self explanatory


incoming – Mido

"Hello?"

Todoroki's been expecting this call, quite anxiously too, but he hadn't expected the panting.

He clears his throat, "Midoriya?"

"D-" Midoriya coughs a little before trying again "-did you just.."

"Yes?" Todoroki prompts.

"I might be in over my head," Midoriya says deliriously, "but did you just ask me out? On national television?"

Todoroki smiles shakily, biting his lip to avoid any embarrassing noises that seem determined to slip past his lips. Inhaling deeply, Todoroki tries to calm himself down as much as possible.

"Yeah, I did."

It hadn't been anything grand; it wasn't really planned either. When the host, Mr Yamada, had inquired about his lovelife, Todoroki had remembered the shooting and spilled some of the beans, confessing that the person he liked had gotten in grave danger and that he wished to take them out for a cup of coffee soon. Mr Yamada had whistled at that, and Todoroki had blushed profusely, unable to contain himself.

"It isnt a joke?" Midoriya whispers, and Todoroki swallows thickly. Should he lie and say yes?

"No," he answers before he can make up his mind. He's never been a good liar anyway.

Midoriya stays silent for a beat too long, so Todoroki speaks to fill the silence. "You don't have to answer me right away Midoriya. We've known each other for over half a year now, but I know it's so abrupt, so-"

"You can't break my heart."

Todoroki's mouth goes dry and he feels his face flush. "Huh?"

"I absolutely will not forgive you if you do. Got it?" Midoriya's voice is shaking.

Todoroki nods. "Got it."

Midoriya sniffles. "Ok, so, I'm still at work. Can we, uh, make plans when I get back home?"

"Sure," Todoroki smiles. "Please don't cry, this is a good thing right?"

"The best," Izuku agrees, laughing. "Ok then, bye Todoroki."

"Shouto."

"Huh?"

Todoroki feels his cheeks warm. "Call me Shouto."

Midoriya makes a small whining noise. "Fine," he concedes. "Only if you call me Izuku."

"Done. Bye Izuku."

"B-bye, Shouto."

Todoroki hangs up with a flushed face and a thundering heart.

Izuku [8:21]
I see buildings I can jump off of

Shouto [8:22]
OH COME ON
