Author's Note: Yo Shindo's birthday happens to be the same day as Neito Monoma's, so I thought it would be fun to combine their gift fics. Especially since they seem similar enough to be brothers.


Yo Shindo's favorite restaurant was Mighty Sushi. Not because he was a particularly huge All Might fan, but because they genuinely had the best sushi in town. The restaurant was located near the docks and got the freshest possible fish every morning.

On the day of his birthday, Yo stood outside for half an hour, waiting for the restaurant to open at noon. Then he claimed the first table and ordered the chef's choice combo.

"Lunch is on me." Neito Monoma slid into the seat across from him. "I stole the money from Dad. Happy birthday, bro."

"Thanks. For a hero, nothing tastes better than food stolen from the number one villain," Yo said cheerfully. "How are you doing?" The two brothers had different mothers. Since childhood, they'd only seen each other on weekends. Still, they'd always gotten along.

Neito yawned. The gesture covered up him using one of his many abilities to cast silence over their table so no one else could overhear. "Oh, just preparing my plan to overthrow Dad and claim his evil empire. How about you?"

Yo said proudly, "Got my provincial hero license! I'm going to become the legendary graduate who makes Ketsubutsu more famous than U.A."

"Still salty you didn't pass U.A.'s entrance exam? I'm telling you, their exam is weird. You couldn't have possibly known you'd lose points for punting someone who annoyed you at a robot. I wouldn't have realized I needed to pretend to act heroic if you hadn't warned me."

"I failed on purpose because I never wanted to attend U.A.," Yo claimed. "I'll have a much better origin story at Ketsubutsu as a hero rising from humble origins."

"I can't relate, I love using Dad's fame to scare villains. Speaking of Dad, is he still giving you a hard time?"

"Of course." Yo shrugged. "He's been trying to vault me ever since I started hero school. He got me once. Fortunately, Uncle Yoichi left a very old key hidden under the vault mattress."

"Still can't relate. Dad's never once vaulted me." Neito sounded smug.

Yo snorted. "He's never tried, because you're his precious golden boy with the All for One quirk who wants to inherit his villainous empire and only attended U.A. to spy for him. As soon as he finds out that you plan to overthrow him, he'll be so busy chasing after you that he won't have time for me. I'm looking forward to the break. If you have time, film a video of his face when you backstab him."

"Of course I'll film the whole thing." Neito cackled evilly. "I'm glad that you want to become a hero and I want to become a villain, so we don't have to compete. You can become top hero, while I become top villain. I've even been working on crushing anyone who might rival you for the position, especially those stuck-up 1-A kids."

"Aww. You're the best little brother ever." Yo grinned. "I'll defeat any new villain who might threaten your spot as the rising star. And I'll visit you in jail after you lose."

With a matching wicked smile, Neito said, "I'll put your vault far away from Dad's after I take over Japan."

A waiter interrupted their conversation to bring their meal. As they ate, the two brothers switched to chatting about TV shows. After devouring their sushi, they hugged and left, each to their own destiny.


OMAKE TIME!

All for One: I'm going to name my son Yo—achoo!

Nurse: I've written down Yo on the birth certificate.

All for One: Wait, I meant to say Yoichi. It's very important to get my replacement's name right—huh, does the baby have brown eyes not green? Never mind, he can be Yo. I'll try again with the next son.

Neito: Joke's on you, I'm going to look like All Might.

#

All for One: I don't know where my sons got their arrogant personalities. Probably from the maternal side.

Yo: We have different mothers.

All for One: I have no idea how genetics work because I never attended school.

#

Neito: I'm going to vault my father and brother someday.

All for One: It's very odd that my younger son got the vaulting urge. Well, I'm just happy to have one sensible relative. At least I'd be locked up with my son.

Neito: Huh? No, I'd put you two in separate vaults. I'd never do such a horrible thing to my big brother as force him to live with you. I'm a villain, not a monster.

#

Yoichi: A heroic older brother and an evil younger one? How ridiculous, it defies the natural order of manga.

All for One: I find it even harder to believe that they get along.

Yoichi: It's quite impossible, they must be mortal enemies. Yo, you need to try harder to infuriate your villainous brother. Brothers on opposite sides can never agree about anything.

Yo: You agreed with Dad just now.

Yoichi: Ack! See what you've done by upending reality?
