Perfectly Imperfect (Shoto Todoroki x Reader)

Houston, the gays are panicking

The original chapter was published during pride month. It is mostly MomoJirou because I love them.

"FOOD!"

I stuffed my face as everyone did the same, chatting about the bunkers and chuckling as Kirishima and Kaminari downed three bowls of rice apiece.

I had already dropped off my stuff- The girls' bunker wasn't bad, small and simple, with futons on the floor and clean bathrooms. Maybe we could treat it like a sleepover if we weren't so tired.

I sat between Momo and Koda, rapidly shoveling kelp into my mouth from my bowl and listening to Mina ask Sero about visiting the boy's bunker.

"So, guys, do you think cereal is soup?" I asked, swallowing the rest of my miso soup broth.

"Y/n, where do you get these conversation starters?" Shoto asked, noodles halfway to his mouth.

"Of course it's soup!" Sero announced from Momo's side. "What else would it be?"

"I don't know, it might not be. What's the definition of soup?" Momo asked. "Do you have a dictionary in Hammerspace we could look at?"

"Nah, I can't read those small-print things."

"What kind of soup uses milk for its liquid base, though? Would that disqualify it?" Shoto asked.

"Creamy vegetable, potato soup, broccoli cheese, cream of mushroom..."

"Why do you know so many soups?" Sero gawked at me. I took another bite of rice.

"Good soup."

"Valid."

Shoto looked between Sero and I, frowning. "...What?"

"We're bathing in hot springs?! Cool!" I yelped, bouncing up and down, exhaustion forgotten momentarily. "I guess it makes sense, given the area."

"It's gonna feel so good," Mina groaned. "But...I think the boys are going to be bathing at the same time we are. Separated by a wall, according to Mandalay."

"Are you serious? That means..." Ochaco sighed.

"Alright, I've got Mineta duty." I swiped through Hammerspace, holding up my old video recorder as the girls filed into the changing rooms for the hot springs. "Jirou, would you mind keeping an ear out for when he starts thirst-rambling? I can pack up and get up over the wall to stop him by the time he finishes."

"Um-"

I glanced over at Jirou, who had her gaze very, very fixated on the ceiling. Which was weird, none of us had started changing yet.

"Y-You know, I could probably keep a lookout, you know!" Momo said as she tapped my shoulder.

Wow, her face was red too.

"Don't you want to clean up, though, Momo?" Tsu frowned, poking her head around the corner of the locker lineup. "Is something wrong? What about you, Jirou?"

Jirou yelped. "Nothing's wrong! I think I'll just clean up later! You go on without me!"

She ran off. I raised an eyebrow and glanced back at Momo, who looked... upset?

"Oh." She mumbled. "I guess that's fine then."

Hmmmm...

"Momo, do you have a crush on Jirou?"

That did it. Momo jumped half a foot in the air, hands flying to cover her blushing cheeks. "N-no! Of course not! I'm a girl, how am I supposed to have a crush on another girl?"
