Smiled, like the scars across Iida and Todoroki's arms and the cuts across his face were always there Midoriya walked back out with Iida and Todoroki trailing behind, hollow eyed and haunted, and smiled like absolutely nothing was amiss, brittle like a million shards of bloody broken glass. Uraraka knows absolutely nothing about Midoriya Izuku.ĭeku went to Hosu for an internship with a hero called Gran Torino. A boy of gentle smiles, sunshining disposition and enthusiastic quirk speculation. She knows Deku, how he fights, how he walks, how he talks. It's strange, she thinks, how little, yet how much, she knows about him.
Whenever she tries to bring it up, he conveniently has an excuse, and he disappears. She doesn't know how he does it, but it works, like a practiced routine that's happened a million times. But then the reassurances that he's fine come out, excuses of being tired, and suddenly the air lightens and it's forgotten. She's not the only one who notices, if the looks Iida and Todoroki send him whenever they too catch it say anything.
Whenever someone touches him, his muscles tense for all of a second, as though he's about to bolt, before relaxing, posture straightening and gigawatt smile replacing itself once more. The smile fades, not reaching his eyes, eyes darting about and hands clenched at his sides, narrowing his presence and seemingly disappearing altogether into the background. Looking at it sets her hairs on end, because it feels so inexplicably wrong on his face.
Midoriya hunches like he expects a knife in his back every second he's not looking, eyes constantly searching and breathing quieted almost like it's instinct.Įvery once in a while, Deku will slip up, and she gets a peek into something beneath the red faced stutters and quirk analysis. Midoriya's smiles feel like shattered bones and bloody teeth, a broken vulnerability hidden beneath, like looking through the wrong side of a mirror.ĭeku walks like he's got nothing to hide, utterly disarming, face pulled into that familiar happy expression as Iida, Todoroki and Ochako trail behind him, pulled in like a star into a black hole. She knows absolutely nothing about Midoriya Izuku.ĭeku's smiles are always blinding, the very sun reflected in them.
He's the one who saved her in the exams, smashing the zero pointer and his arms into a million pieces at the same time with that bone breakingly amazing quirk. He's kind, selfless, and everything the class strives to be. He's the bright, green haired boy with a smile permanently stretched across his face, constantly muttering about hero analysis and utterly heroic in every sense of the word.
