In a Superhuman Society

by Stonecreek

A world with quirks means its people are wind up rather quirky. Whether heroes, villains, or somewhere in-between, every BnHA character deserves to have their story told. These are but tiny 100-word snippets of their lives, told one a day, every day, in 2023. Newest chapter: Mina Ashido is a vivacious hero in training. She's equally enthusiastic about her classmates' love lives.

189. Rapt Tokage

A.N. — This guy's birthday is July 15, a week from now. But that is the most crowded part of the entire month, with five birthdays over a two-day span. His main pic on the wiki had him in headphones, so I stuck him next to Present Mic. Happy very early birthday to instant villain Rapt Tokage.

189. Rapt Tokage

Rapt Tokage was a man who enjoyed employing humiliation to get his kicks. So it was a very humbling experience to be humiliated himself, hospitalized due to his hubris. Rapt was laid up in bed, smoking cigarettes on the sly and fuming at himself.

His quirk, Lizard, came with minor regenerative abilities, so he knew his convalescence wouldn't be that long. While the root cause of his current predicament was the Trigger he'd taken (and sworn off after), Rapt thought it also might be speeding his recovery process along. One day, Rapt hoped he'd look back at this and laugh.
