Life Within a Tarot Deck

Threads of Trust

Katsuki was losing his mind.

He had to speak to this Victoria and apologize for his jackass behavior but that also meant he had to immediately face his fears: spiders.

Personally, he would rather die than deal with them again, but Izuku only gave him the option to come along with him and apologize after school and face the wrath of his mother when she finds out that 1. He acted quirkist and 2. He had made a girl cry. The blonde didn't know what would trigger his mom the most, Quirkism or lack of chivalry.

Katsuku then remembered the Quirkist whale and whimpered in fear. The Quirkist attitude would make her painfully kill him.

He had some relief as after class he and Izuku found out Shoji had an appointment with the fabric division too, so having extra company seemed to help. He couldn't depend on his girl as she had to head home early, and Honey was being pampered by Koji.

"Bakugou, is everything alright? You seem paler than usual."

"Katsuki's fine, he is facing a dilemma right now." Izuku growled, surprising Shoji and causing his brother to shudder again in fear. "He needs to apologize to Victoria who is willing to help me with my costume and our mom will go full demon on him for his actions.."

"...Why would your mother be angry? Is it something that would incur any mother's rage?" Shoji asked and the look on Izuku's face made him slightly unnerved.

"Depends on the mother...some don't even care for their child."

Perplexed at what he meant until he put some of the pieces of him being adopted. Izuku never really spoke of his past so this was shocking. He decided to just nod and continued walking.

"The Hag is scary when she gets tilted, that's for sure, but..." Katsuku gulped as a nauseous feeling built in his stomach. "I am not a fan of spiders, and...I made a comment that upset her."

"I know for a fact that you aren't Quirkist, but to make a girl cry, no man should ever do." Shoji said, looking down at the blonde disapprovingly. "You must treat girls like a flower, tend to them. Some are hardier, but others aren't, and a few take time to blossom." He then added. "Though some are like shooters from a rose bush, sucking all the nutrients from the other buds. Those deserve to be clipped."

"What the hell are you trying to say!?"

"Treat every girl as though they were the most precious thing in the world. The only exception would be any girl who acts like the quirkist bitch." Izuku said bluntly and Katsuki deadpanned.

"She still won't get off my back."

"Then we may need to ask Momo and Mina for an 'intervention'. They told me they have several tricks up their....braziers."

"Izuku...what exactly are you hearing? You are scaring me."

"Oh, you really want to know? Well...let's just say, they have some rather...interesting ideas on what they could do to the bitch, provided they are given the chance. They are just as furious with that fat whale as we are, so I can only imagine how...deep... they will go to enact their own vengeance."

Both boys shuddered, they know all too well the saying Wrath of a Woman Scorned. They are sure they are going to have overactive visions of only a small portion of what those two girls would be planning.

"Especially if they use their Quirks." Izuku chirped, smiling innocently again and walking backwards to look at them both. "Momo-chan's Creations and Mina-chan's Acid would make for some interesting foreplay."

"You...how...we are going to have a very long talk about your sadism, Izuku. You are too scary at times." Katsuki replied, now arriving at the fabric department. "I'm probably going to have to take Valium to help me sleep tonight, haven't been this out of it since the summer."
