Turning the Tables [Shoto Todoroki X Reader]

Important Info!

DISCLAIMER (DO NOT SKIP)

Boku no Hero Academia does not belong to me, it belongs to Kohei Horikoshi. This is just a work based off of it. I don't not own any of the characters, however, the scenes I add in are mine, and I would prefer if no one took them. The way I write this fan fiction is based off of the actual storyline, so not all of the events are of my own creation.

As well, this fanfic —like almost every other story I write (oof)— contains swearing. It also contains possibly triggering topics, such as abuse and gore. So... proceed with caution, and don't say I didn't warn you. There are minimal warnings going forward, since they are very large themes in this book.

As a final note, this fanfic is a Todoroki x Female reader, as I use "she" and "her." You could always try to read it while mentally substituting whatever other pronouns you use, but you may not enjoy the story as much (or it may make you feel dysphoric, which I really don't want for you). It is your choice, though!

Now, on to the character description. I'm sure you already know most of these, but here they are anyways:

(Please do not fill these out!)

(Y/N): Your (first) name

(L/N): Your last name

(N/N): Your nickname (it could be something like "sushi" if you don't have one)

(M/N): Your mother's name

(F/N): Your father's name

(F/F): Favouite food

(F/C): Favourite colour

(H/L): Hair length

There's a good chance I won't end up using half of these, but they're here anyways. If I use one that I haven't mentioned before, I'll probably leave a bolded note.

Now... your quirk.

Your quirk is called Emotional Baggage.

You have the power to take or give emotions (only ones that currently exist, you cannot create them). For example, you can take someone's pain away by passing to yourself, or, if you feel happy, you can pass that feeling on to someone else. You can also "borrow" other people's energy.

One of the downfalls of this quirk is that if you overuse it, you can get headaches, ranging in strength from a slight pain in the temples to raging migraines that can get so painful you fall unconscious. Another issue is that you need to keep the feelings separate from "yourself." Otherwise there's a possibility of that feeling being absorbed permanently into your consciousness or personality.

The rest you will learn throughout the story.

As a final note, there is a lot of plot in this story, which means that (L/N) has a lot of backstory and her own personality (if she didn't, this story would be very flat and boring). I apologize if you don't relate much with (L/N), but I really can't make an all encompassing character that manages to perfectly fit everyone.

(Read: comments like "If that was me I would do ___" or "I'm not like that" are completely unappreciated. Apologies)

Anyway, I do hope you enjoy the fanfic!

If you would prefer to read this story in Spanish, then feel free to read the translated version! XxAsuna___YuukixX has my permission to translate it, so go to their profile to read the Spanish translation! (Please keep in mind you may have to wait for chapters).

I would say till next time, but I'm posting the first chapter in a minute so...
