This will be 12 long! I had to organize my thoughts for this story down because I became so scattered whenever I started writing. I was never a planner, i just write and write until I'm done lol

I have another story started- not romantic and it's probably going to be like 3 chapters short but I wanted to do something supernatural for them since that wasn't something I had done yet. It's more of a 'torture Tomura until he's more insane' gotta thank Garnet168 for the help!

It's different so it's taking a little longer to do but I'm excited for it!

The next morning Izuku got up early and managed to find Spinner already awake. The lizard man eyed him like he expected him to do something suspicious but the boy gave him a big smile. It probably spread through the League Izuku was interviewing everyone. Spinner and Dabi were the last two.

Only Dabi made him nervous enough and actually fear for his life.

"Morning! Did you eat already?" the tiny hero asked.

"No."

"Do we have pancake mix?"

The man arched an eyebrow, "You can barely see the top of the stove. How are you making pancakes?"

Izuku's jaw dropped open and he puffed out his cheeks defiantly, "H-hey! I can use a chair!"

Spinner snorted and put down his newspaper.

"I'll help ya."

Spinner got the bowl, the plastic mixing spoon and placed it on the counter. Izuku grinned happily as he sloppily measured out the pancake mix.

"Do we have chocolate chips?" he asked, looking around from the chair.

"No."

"Sprinkles?"

"Nope."

"Bananas?"
"Nada."

"Damn do you guys have anything fun in here at all to eat?"

Spinner laughed, "We're villains. Sprinkles and chocolate are on the list of stuff we don't think about."

The boy placed his hands on his hips, "Sheesh. That's depressing."

"Such is life. Sprinkles won't save anyone, little hero."

Izuku snorted, "I know that, I'm not stupid."

So the two of them made plain pancakes much to Izuku's dismay. Once everything was done, they sat down with their own stacks and ate in silence for the most part. That was until Spinner stuck his fork into his last pancake and looked over at the blonde haired boy.

"You're not going to ask me any questions?"

Izuku looked at him with a mouth full of pancake with his eyebrows raised. He chewed and swallowed.

"You looked kind of mad when I walked out here so I didn't want to bother you."

"Ah."

"Well, since you asked- why are you here?"

"Why do you think I'm here? You pretty much psychoanalyze everyone."

Izuku turned a little pink.

"W-well, just because I read all about those with animal mutations, they get discriminated against as much as quirkless people."

"What would you know about such things?"

"The rates of suicide is higher. They have less friends, they have abusive families usually. Unless the family itself is similar with the same mutations or quirkless family members, it's bad. I've been there to see it myself. So I know."

Spinner nodded.

"I guess I didn't experience too much of it myself growing up but it didn't help when people thought I was a ninja turtle."

Izuku snorted into his milk and started coughing. The lizard man arched an eyebrow at him.

"S-s-sorry! Didn't expect that! A ninja turtle?!"

"Yup."

"As a kid-

"As an adult. About two years ago actually. A little kid called me that. I have to say I was less mad about it than anything else I've been called but it was a little heart warming in a way. People love the teenage mutant ninja turtles but they don't love me for some reason."

"That…. That is a little weird."

"Yup."

Izuku finished off his pancakes.

"So…. you like Stain, right?"

"Yea."

"I can tell from the clothes but also because you protected me once. I remember that."

Izuku gave him a syrup-covered smile. Spinner snorted and got up from his seat. He ripped off a paper towel and wet it a little before handing it to the tiny hero.

"His ideals are perfect to a point. I believe in his cause."

Izuku leaned onto the bar and just stared at him. Spinner sat there, suddenly feeling uncomfortable. The boy tapped his lips.

"You and Mr. Compress would've made a great team on your own. The two of you could've done a lot of good together."

The man sat up straighter, stiffening a bit before looking thoughtful.

"I do want to change how things are done. I don't want things to stay the same. I want to spark change- the good kind. Society is almost the same as it was before quirks appeared- they discriminate against those who are different. I never belonged until I went to UA. I'm guessing you never belonged until you came here."

"That's correct."

"If I came up with a way to make things better, would you help me?"

"Assuming you could try, what if it backfires?" Spinner asked.

Izuku held out his hand, "I guess if it doesn't work, we can make it better on our own. How's that sound?"

Spinner looked into Izuku's emerald colored eyes for a moment. A smile graced his lips and he grabbed the kid's hand tight. The little hero didn't flinch at the pressure making his hand hurt.

"Alright," the lizard man said, shaking his hand.

I already know what Stain believes in so that means Spinner believes in the same thing. So I can write what I think down and see if he agrees with it. I'm sure I'll get it all right!

Izuku sat in the living room beside Himiko after lunch, compiling his notes the best he could. It wasn't a hard task to do and he actually loved doing it. What bothered him was he never saw Dabi. They ended up placing his pancakes in the fridge in a bag with his name on it.

He's probably avoiding me.

It didn't really surprise him any. Dabi was emotional and kind of a douche.

I did hit his balls. I'm sure he still hates me for that.

Izuku rubbed his temples.

"You ok?" she asked, placing an arm around him.

"Is Dabi here?"

She gave him a creepy grin.

"He's taking a mini vacation."

"Ah."

He's actively avoiding me then. I guess I can ask Tomura about him. He didn't offer much info last night. Maybe I should ask again before I contact Nezu and let him know. If I can't get anything on him, I will just have to put emotional distress or something like down but I can put Dabi in a somewhat better light. Maybe he'll get more sympathy because I hit him in the nuts.

"Don't worry about it. He does that sometimes."

"O-oh."

"Dabi has a lot to unload emotionally. He's been through a lot. He looks emo and angry all the time but he is a big softie and all that."

"You think he will talk to me?" Izuku asked, feeling hopeful.

"Nope, probably not."

Izuku groaned, "He's still mad at me probably."

Himiko giggled loudly and returned her attention to the TV.

That night, Tomura helped make Hamburger Helper with Spinner. Izuku almost laughed at the absurd excitement on the villain's face at the idea of noodles tasting like bacon cheeseburger. Poor Spinner had to convince him they probably needed three boxes of the stuff at once because of the way everyone ate- they ate a lot.

Izuku tried to suggest adding veggies to the side but Tomura shot that down quickly. Tomura scooped out and set everyone's plates. He even set up one for Dabi.

"He may come back but if this shit is good, I'm eating his too."

"Do you not have taste buds?" Sako asked, looking down at his plate with slight disgust, "Why are we eating this?"

Izuku watched as Tomura frowned.

"What's wrong with it?" he asked.

"Um…. usually it's for people who are broke," the boy said, "Mom would make it three times a week when I was younger."

Tomura frowned and stared down at his plate.

"I'll eat it though! I haven't had this since I was eleven."

The hero started digging in quickly and it actually tasted pretty good. Spinner certainly knew his spices and seasonings.

Tomura looked a little smug as the hero started eating. Spinner smiled and rolled his eyes. The rest had to admit it did taste better. Especially since it was spiced with actual bacon thrown in it too.

"Fuck this game!" Tomura said, slamming his hand into the monopoly board, rattling the little houses on it.

"Seriously, Tomura. We're trying to have fun," Sako said as he organized his fake money.

Himiko fanned herself with her fake money looking smug while the decay villain glared daggers at her. She had bought BoardWalk and he continued to land on it three times in a row.

"Do you want some of my money?" Izuku offered but the smirk on his face just said he was being a tiny little ass.

"Fuck off you small shit!"

The hero dissolved into giggles while Spinner patted the leader's back.

"It's just a game-

"HOW THE FUCK IS IT JUST A GAME WHEN EVERYONE IS RICH AND I'M PISS POOR BROKE!"

"Maybe you should've bought more than just Baltic Avenue and Vermont Avenue."

"It's all I can afford with being fuckin' broke! You assholes are cheating!" he shouted, his voices echoing off the walls.

"Wow. You and Kacchan could be best friends with that attitude," Izuku said with a shit eating grin.

Tomura slapped the back of his hand in the boy's face with his middle finger up with his hand shaking with rage.

"See that? F-U-C-K Y-O-U."

They all dissolved into a fit of tear producing laughter, well except Tomura who ended up decaying the whole board and stomping off in a fit of rage like a child throwing a tantrum. It was rather endearing. Izuku smiled fondly with his fake money in his hand.

Well, it would've been fun growing up with him.

They all heard his bedroom door slam three times and then a muffled scream.

"You sure he's like a brother to you?" Mr. Compress asked, "He's an adult child."

Izuku grinned, "I can appreciate the 'I always wanna win no matter what' attitude. The ambition is admirable."

"He's like that with everything," Himiko said, leaning back in her seat, staring at the table full of dust.

"There's nothing wrong with that. I like it."

Hopefully he'll apply it to the right thing soon. I would love to see it.
