Amajiki Tamaki, Aoyama Yuga, Ashido Mina, Asui Tsuyu, Kaminari Denki, Koda Koji, Mineta Minoru, Tokoyami Fumikage, Yaoyorozu Momo & Gen. Reader (*All platonic*)

Song Used: Kids by MGMT

Gender neutral reader, they/them pronouns (I use "themself," is that correct? Please let me know). Tried to make sure I didn't mention anything specific about appearance (like skin blushing or height differences, let me know if I messed up somewhere).

Contains: Set during a zombie apocalypse, the characters are children, implied age-reducing incident happened, reader has to take care of the kids by themself, mentioning of a weapon (not specified), mentioning of danger and being scared, the characters are scared, songfic, angst, hurt/comfort, reversed comfort, crying (on the kids' end), poor Tamaki and his anxiety, probably some OOC-ness (sorry lol), not proofread!

Let me know if there's anything I need to add! I want you guys to feel safe.


The water is warm, but it's sending me shivers
A baby is born
Crying out for attention
The memories fade like looking through a fogged mirror
Decision to decisions are made and not bought
But I thought this wouldn't hurt a lot, I guess not


(Name)'s chest heaves as they attempt to quickly catch their breath, back against the door. They carefully peek out the the window nearby, ducking when they see a few undead figures stumble closer. They hold their breath, eyes flickering to behind them and then back to the door as they wait for any sign of being spotted or heard. Thousands of minutes seem to pass before they let out a slow shaky sigh, shoulders relaxing slightly. They unconsciously nod, eyes closing as they take a deep breath. They suddenly feel a tug at their pants.

"(Name)...?"

They open their eyes and look down to see Momo look up at them, her wide dark eyes wet and full of worry. With a quick glance behind her, (Name) can also see Tamaki shaking in place, looking on in fear and concern. Another look cues them in on how the other kids feel too. They sigh, crouching down to Momo's height and brushing back wild strands of black hair.

"We should be able to stay here for at least the night. Let me take a walkthrough first and make sure there isn't anything around." They make sure to meet each of the kids' eyes, trying to send as much reassurance as they can. Denki and Mina run over to them, taking a side each as they whimper.

Denki buries his face into their arm, hands gripping their sleeve. "Don't go!"

"You can't go!" Mina rubs her face against their other arm, her pink hair getting messier and messier.

"Hey, hey..." (Name) gently pulls themself away, taking the two in their arms and rubbing the back of their heads. "It'll be okay. I need you all to stay quiet and stay right here." They look back at the other kids, their lips in a thin line. "No wandering off or I'll send you straight to sleep tonight. No playtime before dinner."

Denki and Mina instantly shake theirs heads, eyes wide as they press their hands to their mouths. (Name) resists the urge to chuckle, not wanting to ruin the seriousness of the situation. They stand back up and begin to usher the kids closer to the door. Taking count of each child before nodding again.

"Okay. Stay right here." They ready their grip on their weapon, making sure to keep it away from the kids. "If something bad happens, I want you to yell for me. You all know what to do if something happens to me, right?"

The kids nod, some taking it better than others. They notice Tsuyu taking Yuga and Koji's hand; whether it's for their sake or for hers, (Name) cannot tell. Fumikage as his arms crossed, his tiny fingers tapping nervously. Poor Tamaki looks like he's about to pass out. (Name) give a soft smile. "I'll be right back. Stay safe."
