thunderstorms 

they hardly ever lead to something good 

especially at night 

the day was soon coming to an end 

students were ready for playing on their games and talking with their friends after being well-fed with glorious food 

but the noise of thunder and rain soon got one student's nerves on their ends 

tokoyami had never liked thunder, it caused so many problems

it was so loud 

it caused people to become loud 

"damm it the tv's not working" sero groaned

"noooooooo!" cried kiminari, he tried re-charging it but that leads to all his power being used and made him even more stupid (which usually lasts 4 hours)

and it could cause power cuts  

but tokoyami didn't notice that the moment he began listing of things 

they were coincidently happing as he spoke 

but maybe he would have noticed this if he wasn't resting his eyes 

many of the students tried to instinctively scream before their mouths being covered by the braver students 

shushing and pointing directly in tokoyami's direction 

too engrossed in his own thoughts to realise what was happing around him 

"what are we going to do?!" mina whispered worriedly 

"if he sees that it become literal darkness he's going to freak out" sero whispered 

"ok, ok, listen, here's what we're going to do" shoji proclaimed quietly, taking charge

shoji was there with him during the forest incident 

and he was his closest friend 

so he knew the best ways to keep him calm 

using the old fireplace they never used to produce some light 

it was time for tokoyami to know what was going on around him 

"tokoyami?" Jiro asked 

tokoyami hummed and opened his eyes 

but in one glimpse he nerves started jumping 

it was dark 

the power must be out 

it's too dark 

he could feel his body shake 

dark shadow was going to start destroying everything 

what if he hurts someone 

just like last time 

but a soft material covered that his body and his special mug with herbal tea brought him out of his panicking thoughts 

"its ok toko, we got a fire so you can be near the light" mina said bringing him to the fire 

Kirishima and midoriya had to stop tokoyami from sitting to close to the fire 

his eyes never left the flames 

but his body never stopped shaking 

"yo tokobro, it's going to be ok," sero said reassuringly

but tokoyami made no movement nor sound 

only sipping the calming tea 

(which had vanished in a blink)

"you can look away you know, keep staring and you may damage your eyes" Ochaco  

"I don't want to dark shadow to cause any damage" tokoyami admitted lowly 

"ha, we'd be able to stop you from doing anything before you even got started bird brain" chuckled Bakugo 

earning him deadpanned eyes from everyone besides the bird-headed boy

Asui placed herself next to the still shaking raven head 

"I know that you struggle with you're quirk in these particular situations, but we're all here for you," she said as she hugged him 

he smiled as he let his eyes drift away from the fire's light 

but his vision was soon starting to become blurry 

was dark shadow attacking his friends and he didn't realise it 

it was becoming dark 

but not the kind that felt frightening and scary 

but actually warm and inviting 

and soon he was drifting off into calm pleasant sleep 

the tea that he drank had a big dose of calming chemicals 

basically a sleeping potion 

and with him sleeping soundly in Asui's lap when his body gave away to gravity

everyone sighed relief 

they wouldn't admit it but they were slightly scared of what could have happened if his quirk got out of control 

but the sight of tokoyami looking the most peaceful and calm they had ever seen was worth it 

"maybe we should put some backup lights in here in case anything like this ever happens again" momo suggested 

everyone nodded in agreement as they began to go to bed 

"Need any help with sleepy over there asui?" asked Kirishima 

"no I'm good ribbit," she said as she got up with ease, holding tokoyami  fire man style Todoroki next to her so to keep dark shadow at bay 

"He needs to eat more, he weighs literally nothing" she continued 

"you could say he is a featherweight," kiminari said with finger guns still stupid

and that lead for another round of group deadpanned stares 

asui placed tokoyami on the bed, placing a goodnight kiss on his cheek and closed his door 

goodnight everyone said as they entered their own rooms 

hopefully, the lights will be working tomorrow 

or kiminari wouldn't use all his power on the tv again
