You: 2 true. gonna bring shin-bae
You: see ya in 20!
"You seriously have me in your phone as 'Shin-Bae'?"
Kaminari looked to his right to see his boyfriend, whose face was mostly covered by purple bedhead, and put his cell phone down.
"Shit, did I wake you up?" The blonde turned around and threw his arm over the sleepy teen beside him.
"I was already half awake. Do your friends know you've given them horrible names for their contacts or is that just for you?" The tall boy nuzzled the top of Kaminari's head and held him closer under the blanket that Denki had mostly stolen in the night.
"Mina named herself but everything else is my own genius at work."
"Should've guessed."
The air of the room felt cool on his face and it was clear that it would be a struggle to extract himself from the warmth of the boy next to him. Denki gave his boyfriend a quick kiss, conscious of inevitable morning breath, and snuggled further under the blanket.
"We've got 20 minutes to get downstairs," Shinsou grunted.
"Correction. You've got 20 minutes to make me go downstairs. I am living here forever and you'll have to use your son powers to convince Dadzawa to teach classes in your room instead."
Kaminari saw an evil smirk on Shinsou's face before, In retaliation, he yanked the blanket off of them both and held it out of reach. Denki nearly jumped out of his skin.
"Holy shit, it's fucking cold! Do I look like Todoroki's right side to you? Put it baaack."
"Nope. Love means we suffer together, and if I have to freeze my ass off then so do you." Shinsou was just playing dirty now.
"No fair! Using the L-word to guilt me into being an adult? How can you possibly live with yourself?"
Hitoshi sat up and stood from the bed with a stretch, "if this morning is any indication then it's easier to live with me than you."
"That was cold...and I'm already cold! Unnecessary double whammy, dude." Kaminari tried to grab the discarded blanket, with every intention of wrapping himself in it like a burrito, but Shinsou pulled it away just in time. Denki knew his glare was more along the lines of cute than intimidating but Shinsou was polite enough not to mention it.
The taller boy picked up Kaminari's discarded uniform and threw it in his direction before getting his own and starting to dress.
"Dude, it's the weekend! We can be cool now." The blonde quickly ran over to Shinsou's dresser and started to pick out clothes. After selecting a pair of jeans and a black shirt with a lightning bolt- three guesses as to who bought him that- Denki handed them over triumphantly.
Shinsou rolled his eyes but changed without much fanfare. Kaminari gave him a wink, two finger guns, and a smooth, "You must really control brains after all-"
"I do?"
"-Because I can't get you off my mind."
Hitoshi snorted, "That was awful."
"I'll have you know that what I just said was incredibly endearing!" Kaminari huffed.
Shinsou gave a tired smile, "Bet I can out-cheese you."
"My compliment was totally not cheesy but fine. Challenge accepted."
"Has anyone ever told you that you're really electro cute ?"
I'm going to marry this man.
"Alright, fuck it, you win."
"Damn right. Now let's get to Kirishima's room before we have to fight the others for space."
When the door opened they saw Eijirou's wet hair hanging around his face in that adorable way nobody could convince him to keep it in. Don't get Denki wrong, his best bud rocked the spiky look but a soft Kiri was a precious Kiri.
"Hey!" the redhead squeezed Kaminari in one arm and Shinsou in the other. With muscles as strong as his they always got a few good back cracks out of it.
Eijirou had a tendency to hug his friends like he hadn't seen them in ten years no matter how long they'd actually been apart.
"Shut the goddamn door, Sparky. Pinky and the Lame aren't here yet."
Before the door had fully closed Denki heard a "boooo," echo down the hallway, and soon Mina and Sero stepped into the room. "That was a shitty one, mamagou."
"Like I give a flying fuck raccoon eyes."
Sero rubbed his chin in thought, "what about a stationary fuck?"
Kiri chimed in, "Yeah, he'd proba- nevermind!"
Sero choked on his own spit while laughing at the boy blushing as red as his hair.
"Ok kids," Mina went straight to the point, "So what's the deal with Shinbro? Do we know whose ass we're kicking?"
Though Denki was 103% sure Shinsou was going to ask about the nickname, he decided to jump in. "We don't know yet, but we're going to find out."
"No duh, Sherlock. Anyone got any bright ideas?"
The room was silent.
"Um," Denki spoke up, "do you think Uraraka and Tokoyami would be open to helping us? They were the ones actually involved. Maybe they both saw or felt the same thing?"
"Not the worst thing you've ever said," Sero shrugged.
Kirishima's eyes went wide, "Wait, that's it! We just need someone who's been brainwashed by Shinsou, before all this, to testify how it felt versus how Ochako and Fumikage felt!" Kirishima continued joyously, "You know who'd be perfect for this?"
Bakugou barked, "Don't even fucking think about saying De-"
"Deku!" Mina, Sero, Denki, and Kiri shouted together.
Despite the ash blonde's palms going off like rage-filled fireworks, the gang continued to scheme. A testament to just how much trust the squad had in Bakugou to not kill them despite many opportunities and a whole lot of good reasons.
"We definitely can't ask Ojirou, but Midoriya would be more familiar with it anyway," Shinsou thought aloud. "You might have to ask instead them of me, I don't know if they'd be comfortable talking to me right now."
Mina cocked her head, "And if they say it feels different then what Deku experienced you think they'd still blame Shinsou?"
"No way, "Denki shook his head, "We'd have irrefutable evidence to the contrary, bro."
Sero smiled, "You're so smart sometimes that I forget you're an idiot."
"Well, gee. Plus Ultra to you too, buddy."
"Ahem!" Denki stuck his tongue out at Sero as Bakugou spoke up, "So the plan is to ask Uraraka, Tokoyami, and the shitty nerd," he grimaced just saying it, "to describe the way it felt when they were under control, and then compare them, right?"
"Yup."
Mina hummed to herself, "Both Tokoyami and Uraraka are here but Deku and Todoroki are visiting Midoriya's mom this weekend. Todoroki kept talking about his plans with no filter- I learned some things I never wanted to learn, and then I Instagrammed about it."
"If Freezer burn and Fuckwit are out of town we can't exactly run our experiment. What else have we got?"
"The teachers," Shinsou started, "Aizawa said none of them believe I did it. Which means they have to have some evidence. I don't think they'd feel that way out of blind faith. We should collect whatever information they have that we don't."
The group nodded and continued to think.
"Reinforcements!" Kirishima turned to Bakugou with a smile on his face, "do you think you can get your mom to yell at the rest of the class?"
"What the hell do you need the old hag for?"
"Bro, she's terrifying in the best way. Mitsuki could solve world hunger just by shouting."
The rest of the Bakusquad nodded. Kaminari still remembers the first time he met Bakugou's parents. He called the blonde woman beautiful, got punched by Katsuki, who was then slapped across the head by Mitsuki, who very quietly, and non-threateningly, was scolded by his father. A man who quickly faded into the background to let the other two fight it out afterward. Denki looked forward to the day he got to see Shinsou interact with the Bakugou clan.
Everyone at this school has such a weird freaking family…
"Wait!" Kaminari pulled on Shinsou's sleeve to grab his attention, "You're forgetting about my family! The Kaminaris are gonna be on the case!"
Hitoshi paled slightly at the suggestion, but he was just going to have to deal with it. Family is there for family, and that's exactly what Shinsou was now.
"Can I come along and meet your hot sister again?" Sero asked.
Shinsou shrugged, "If you want her number you can dig through my trash."
Denki shrieked, "Was that a super sick burn or did Akari actually give you her number?! When did she even do that?!"
"I found it in my shoe."
"She's the scary one with the boobs right?" Kirishima asked. Frankly, that was as polite as one could be when describing the domineering older sister.
Mina squeezed Denki's cheeks, "the twins are sooo cute though! They called me big sis and I nearly died. Let me go with you!"
"Dudes, there's already going to be 7 people in that house if you count me and Toshi, and there is no way I'm fitting the rest of you. That building barely fits our family without any additions."
Denki could tell from Shinsou's facial expression that he was keeping himself from commenting on how needlessly large the Kaminari family was. It was nice of him to keep quiet.
"Next time I'll just have them swing by the dorms-"
"Yeah, because there's a lot more space here ," Sero muttered.
"Everybody shut the fuck up!"
The room went quiet as everyone turned to Bakugou.
"Get your shitty family to do whatever they need, I'll talk to the ancient bitch back home, and Eijirou, Sero, and Mina will talk with the teachers."
Mina widened her eyes before elbowing Bakugou suggestively, "Eijirou, huuuh? No 'shitty hair' today?"
"Fuck off."
The two boys left shortly after the meeting was adjourned and went to complete their tasks. It was raining heavily and they had to crowd under one dingy umbrella that might have been romantic if the static from Kaminari wasn't shocking them every other step.
As Denki led Shinsou back to his home he warned him that he'd texted his mother and given her a heads up about what was happening at school. This was quickly proven by opening the door and seeing Mrs. Kaminari waiting expectantly in the hallway. Once she spied them all hell broke loose.
"My babies! Tell me who started messing with my son-in-law! Somebody is about to have their TV explode and then I'll fry every root off their scalp! Let's hope this idiot likes having a bad hair day for the rest of his LIFE." The air around her crackled with sparks and Shinsou saw the mug she was holding had started to smoke. Denki panicked.
"Ma, calm down. I totally agree, and I'm first in line for ass kicking, but you don't need another heart attack. Remember what the doctor said?"
Shinsou was learning that Mrs. Kaminari's face was an excellent study in the expression of not giving a single fuck.
"Oh, please. Your father is a living defibrillator. I'll be fine."
"Moooooooom! I'm serious."
Hitoshi intervened, "It's ok, Mrs. Kaminari. Denki, our friends, and my dads are going to help figure it out."
She huffed, "It's clearly upset you, and that makes it not ok. Which means I'm helping. Besides, didn't I tell you to call me mom?"
Usually, Denki felt a tiny bit embarrassed every time she started adopting his loved ones, but when it came to his boyfriend it only made him happy to hear it.
Shinsou looked wary as he replied, "Then please don't have a heart attack...mom?"
Mrs. Kaminari was positively beaming as if the deep negativity of seconds ago had never existed. Denki had clearly gotten this skill from her- they could both go from outrage to joy like it was a light switch. She walked to meet them by the door and scooped Kaminari and Shinsou into her arms. Pushing both of their faces into her abundant chest, nearly to the point of choking.
"I'm so lucky to have such a sweet son-in-law! You two remind me of Denki's father and I. Only with more purple."
"Where is dad, anyway?"
"It's raining- your father is wrapped in an insulated blanket and short-circuiting on the couch."
Now that Shinsou thought of it, he did hear a quiet "wheeeey" coming from down the hall. He imagined Midoriya would have a field day documenting the genetically related quirk aspects of the Kaminari family. The black bolt in Denki's hair had kept him busy and mumbling for an hour.
"Do you all make that sound when you uh...short circuit?" Shinsou asked.
"It's practically tradition at this point." Denki shrugged, "I don't think any of us decided on it. I'm the only one who can keep my thumbs up when it happens. Dad just flops down wherever he's at and Mom mumbles with her hair all frizzy. The twins are too weak to overcharge, and Akari is just a whore-"
"Language!"
"When I was a kid, to stop me from doing it on purpose, my grandmother once told me I had a cousin who short-circuited himself and never stopped being stupid. It put me off electricity for a month."
"A month? That's not really a long time."
"When mom found out she shocked grandma hard enough to break her hearing aid."
Mrs. Kaminari's face held no remorse whatsoever, and from the other things Shinsou had heard about that grandmother he was totally okay with her doing that. "Back to the subject at hand, boys. What can I do to help clear this nasty business up? I can wreak havoc during a PTA meeting if you need me to."
Shinsou looked a bit guilty at the woman's passionate response, "It's fine if you don't want to get involved. I understand it looks really bad for me."
Mrs. Kaminari shook her head before petting his hair fondly. "Don't worry, Shinsou. You've got us and that means we've got you. Nobody gets to talk shit about my Denki's boyfriend!"
"Mom, LANGUAGE!"
"Oh, shut up," she laughed, poking her son in the cheek.
"Besides, we have a saying in this family." Mrs. Kaminari told Shinsou proudly, "Where there's a will there's a wheeeeeeeyyyyyy."
