mha truth or dare i guess

shinsou found a cat and revived my will to live

It was pouring rain outside the 1a dorms, water pounding on the roof and windows as if it was trying to force it's way inside. Ashido plopped down on one of the two-person couches she'd set up in a circle. She'd been there for half an hour already, making sure that everything would be perfect for when people started arriving. She was a self-proclaimed love guru and had planned out the entire night so that everybody would be in a relationship by the end of the night.*A/N please don't try to force your friends into relationships this is not at all how people's feelings work in real life all of this is strictly for the sake of me having an easy life as a writer, respect people's boundaries and make sure that you get consent from everyone involved before doing anything romantic* The only thing she found a little bit shady was the Uraraka/Tsu thing... they'd been acting a little weird around each other lately and she didn't know why. Ah, whatever, she thought. I'll investigate a little more and I'm sure I'll figure out what's going on soon enough.

The main doors creaked open. Ashido grinned and rushed towards the entrance to the dorms. She waved at the tired-looking, dripping wet, purple-haired boy standing just inside the doorway. "Heeeeeey! Shinsou, right?" she asked, tilting her head. His eyes flicked around the building, taking in the surroundings. "Uh - oh, yeah, um, that's me. Sorry, who're you?" he was clearly nervous, not used to strangers being so cheery and willing to talk to him. "I'm Mina Ashido! You're a little early, ya know," she beamed towards him. "Yeah I just had to walk over to your dorms and I wanted to make sure I was on time, sorry..." he said awkwardly. "Oh, it's all good! Everybody else should be here in a couple minutes," she walked towards the elevators, expecting someone to step out. Sure enough, the doors dinged open, and Tsu, Uraraka, and Midoriya appeared in the elevator, chatting. The short, green-haired boy noticed Shinsou and Mina standing together and called out to them. "Hi guys! Glad to see you got to the dorms without getting lost, Shinsou!" Shinsou nodded, smiling in what he clearly thought to be a normal smile, but was terrifying and all too familiar to the students of Class 1a. Uraraka gasped and blurted out, "He looks just like Mr. Aizawa!" after she and Tsu had walked over and dropped some facemasks and some chips on the table. Shinsou looked confused and Midoriya had to explain to him that Mr. Aizawa was their teacher who smiled kinda weirdly but NOT IN A BAD WAY SO DON'T FEEL BAD SHINSOU YOUR SELF ESTEEM IS THROUGH THE FLOOR ALREADY. Shinsou was still pretty confused, he didn't get much social interaction. "Hey, what's that lump in your jacket, Shinsou?" Tsu croaked out. Shinsou turned bright red. "Oh, uh, well, you see, I was walking here from my dorm and, uhm, I found - this - in the bushes outside," he said, pulling a tiny black cat out of his hoodie. "OH MY GOD SHINSOU THAT'S ADORABLE" the girls (and Midoriya because I mean who doesn't like kittens) all squealed as one, converging on him. Tsu and Uraraka ran off to the kitchen to grab the baby animal something to eat, and Midoriya ran to his dorm to get a towel that they could wrap the shivering cat in.

It was just Ashido and Shinsou, newly kitten-less, standing there for a few seconds until the elevator doors dinged again and out came Kaminari and Kirishima, both of their arms loaded up with snacks. Kaminari glanced over at Shinsou for a second and then did a double take, actually stumbling backwards a little bit. Kirishima caught him and Ashido realised what had happened and they both burst out laughing as Kaminari turned the same color as Kirishima's hair. Shinsou had luckily been looking away when it happened, saving Kaminari from further embarrassment. "Not your type, huh bro?" Kirishima whispered to Kaminari. "shut UP," Kaminari hissed back. "Hey, Kiri, bro, what does gay panic feel like?" he asked. "Pretty sure it feels like THAT, fam," the shark-toothed boy smirked, barely suppressing a grin. They stepped out of the elevator and walked towards Shinsou and Ashido. "Hey, dude, I'm Kamenki Daminari, *insert finger guns here*" Kaminari panic-smiled at Shinsou. "What? I thought your name was Kaminari?" he asked, oblivious to the flustered boy. "That's what he meant - Denki Kaminari" Kirishima interjected. "And I'm Eijiro Kirishima. Nice to meet you, bro." "Yeah, likewise... I'm Hitoshi Shinsou," he said. "OH MY ALL MIGHT KIRISHIMA HE REMEMBERED MY NAME," the electric boy told his friend. "Wow, you fell hard," Kirishima said dryly. They sat down as a group on the couches, Ashido grabbing Kirishima so that Kaminari and Shinsou would have to sit together. Kaminari not-so-slowly-or-subtly turned crimson and tried to scoot away from Shinsou, but he couldn't as the couches were pretty small with no extra space. Ohmyfuckinggodourkneesaretouching, Kaminari thought while hyperfocusing on how close he was to Shinsou. Hebumpedmyelbowholyshit and gay ass thoughts like that were the only things running through Kaminari's brain, he had basically forgotten how do breathe.

Tsu and Uraraka came out of the kitchen, holding the cat, some milk, and some cat food. They were both a little bit flushed and Ashido noticed the shimmer of pink lipgloss on Tsu's cheek. Uraraka's signature pink lipgloss. Ashido made eye contact with both of them and winked. She'd keep their secret, for now. "Is that cat food? Why do we have cat food in the dorm kitchen?" Kirishima asked, his brain suddenly spouting like 12 different Todoroki-worthy conspiracy theories about who was hiding kittens in the dorms. "I dunno... it was in a little drawer that was marked Mr. Aizawa's Food DO NOT TOUCH OR YOU WILL BE EXPELLED," Uraraka replied. Before the students had time to consider what that meant, Midoriya and Todoroki stepped out of the elevator, Midoriya holding a fuzzy green blanket. While introductions happened for what seemed like the hundredth time, Kirishima got up to look for Bakugou. "Yo, Ashido, I'm gonna go grab Bakugou, if you hear explosions and more screaming than usual call Mr. Aizawa," Kirishima hadn't really expected Bakugou to come down on his own, but he'd really hoped so, because he didn't want to get exploded for the 8th time that day.
