i wasn't fully used to this- the feeling of being away from my dad. i've always been strapped to him like a ball on a chain, or something of that sort. being in the dorms is nice i guess is what i'm trying to say.

i've been defying him my whole life. i've always done the opposite of what he wanted. like i would refuse to train when he wanted to, and other things like that. i also technically moved into the dorm without his consent (i asked my mother about it and got her to talk with the school). 

there's something that most people would consider special about today, but it's different for me. today's my birthday.

(A/N: we're gonna have him turn sixteen because i'm boring and i just wanna say sixteen ok)

most people count birthdays as 'special' because they're a year older, but each year for me is like a time stamp in a timeline. every year, put a dash through the timeline that says 'one more year todoroki shoto lived' or 'the sixteenth year shoto lived through his father' or something along the lines of that. i'm happy that this year i'm finally away from my dad. and it's a saturday, so that's cool, i guess.

i sit up in bed, and smile to myself. 

this year will be different.

finally i have something to actually celebrate. i have a life now. i'm not just some machine anymore- a tool. i finally feel human. it's a feeling that i never would have expected to feel- not in a million years. i always thought i'd be held by my father on a short leash, so i wouldn't escape or run free. but guess what dad?

i am free. and this time, you can't do anything about it. 

with a sudden burst of confidence, i almost leap out of bed. i decided to just get out at a normal pace today, like most others. i walk to my dresser and grab an outfit that i like- my favorite thing to wear. i don't wear it often because i feel like i'll be judged for wearing something like it, but i don't care today. know  why? i'm finally away from that rat-bastard, scumbag, a-hole, abusive piece of sh-

"todoroki!" midoriya knocks on my door, rather loud.

i slide on a turtleneck and walk over to my door to open it.

"good morning midoriya," i greet, opening the door.

"goooooooood morning todoroki! happy birthdayyyyyyyy! you look nice today. uhm... bakugo is making breakfast today and ochako put on some TV in the common area if you want to join us." he rambles and then starts to explain what ochako put on.

"i'd love to join you." i state as he stops his mumbling.

"oh! ok, cmon then." he leads me out to the common room, where ururaka, asui, bakugo, kirishima, and kaminari sat. i could hear slight words from mineta's room as we walked past it.

"eugh... i don't even wanna think about what he's doing in there..." midoriya says, shuddering. i laugh.

"wait todoroki you can laugh?" he jokes, looking back in dramatic astonishment. 

"yeah, only when i have reasons." i continue walking, almost leaving midoriya behind.

he catches up to me, and we reach the common area finally and i sit down with ochako. 

"you look pretty snazzy todoroki!" she yells, jumping up from her seat. she seems so ecstatic about something.

"HEY HALF AND HALF." i hear bakugo scream from the kitchen.
