midoriya 2 weeks into getting OFA because he’s a dumbass 15 year old but now with the power of G-d and the brains of a teenage boy: then i hit the counter with my fist so hard it shattered. haha it was awesome
iida: that sounds very irresponsible! i am sure your mother does not appreciate you breaking her decor!
midoriya: oh no it’s okay, the counter is fine. i meant i shattered my fist. it was awesome. i mean, not awesome because we had to go to the er, but i got a sweet cast
iida, now realizing one of the peers in the classroom he’s chosen to be friends with has absolutely 0 sense of self preservation and enough Dumbass Energy to power an entire city:
todoroki, fellow dumbass 15 year old: i learned a new power move
iida: oh?
todoroki: yeah so if i raise my body temperature high enough i can melt everything around me, including cameras and metal structures however there is also a very high and exciting chance it will also kill me horribly
iida: well that is. hm.
midoriya: hey iida i heard you’ve been working on improving your speed! care to share with the class?
iida, having recently realized his own dumbass potential and hitting it with exponentially expanding speed: yes, actually! so i went out into the woods and tore off my old exhausts with a pair of pliers and now they will grow back stronger, larger, more powerful, and i will be much faster. nothing says improvement like physically removing a part of your own body for the sake of personal growth!
todoroki: that sounds…..bad. and very painful.
iida: oh, yes, it was excruciating!
midoriya: hey i just had a thought
iida: yes?
midoriya: maybe we should stop putting ourselves through intense physical trauma for the sake of a hero program that quite frankly kinda sucks and seems dependent on punishing us with dangerous and life threatening physical harm.
iida: well…that sounds…reasonable
midoriya: also aizawa wouldn’t let me keep this abandoned cat i found outside in my dorm room so i think we should form a student union and boycott
todoroki: say no more, i’m in
give me actual horror!ghost deku pls, with secretly mushy!todo and always a creampuff!iida
i know this scene is very tense and dramatic and im thrilled we’ve finally hit this part of the story bc so much good shit happens but also. can we talk about how fucking big iida is. hes hunched forward with his shoulders curled in but hes still easily taller than the rest. he could tuck all of them under his chin with no issue. his shoulders are literally twice as wide as momo’s and midoriya’s. look how massive his hands are. hes so fucking big. i love my large son
just moving along like everyone else
