Names. This is a soulmate AU where the person's soulmate's name appears as a tattoo on their wrist. For this story specifically, the tattoo appears at random with no warning. It's fate steering you in the right direction when you stray from your destined path.

Reader's POV:

It's been precisely one week since we moved into the dorms and I have solidified three conclusions:

My homeroom teacher, Mr.Aizawa, would make a gorgeous woman.

Bakugo is a pussy that sleeps by 8:30.

I don't plan to meet my soulmate. Ever. It's not like I don't want to, I just think it would get in the way of becoming a hero.

I walk into my class, 1-A, and make my way to my seat. "Hey L/N, a group of us are planning to hangout after school. Do you wanna come?" I maintain eye contact with Kaminari before shrugging. He's been asking this more frequently as of late.

"I'm planning on training after school." Kaminari's face drops a little and I feel a pang of guilt. Normally he just smiles and says maybe next time, but this reaction was something I didn't expect, "I guess I could skip training today." His face lights up, and he walks over to Mina, Sero, and Kirishima who are surrounding Bakugo at his desk. I watched the group, a couple of them have already found their soulmates, and I noticed the smiles on their faces as they interact. Ever since the sports festival I noticed it's harder for me to be left alone. Uninterrupted alone time became more scarce, and that off-brand pikachu is the reason why. He's been bothering me about making friends after noticing that I sat next to no one whenever I wasn't on stage. I figured after over three months of this he would give up, but he's just become more persistent.

The rest of the day was rather normal, and I accomplished minimal unnecessary social interaction. When I finished packing my bag I looked up and came face to face with a beaming Kaminari. "Lets go!" I nod and trail behind the group while Kaminari tries to make conversation every so often. At some point we find ourselves at an arcade, and everyone disbursed through the area. Rather than joining the crowded entertainment cell I waited on a bench outside. After a few minutes of scrolling through my phone someone sits down next to me.

"What is it?" I don't bother looking at them as I lock my phone, putting it away into my pocket.

"Why are you sitting here alone?"

"Do I need a reason to relax?"

"No, but don't you want to have fun?"

"I am."

"Are you?" I finally look over to my side and am greeted by a fluff of yellow hair.

"Yes." He looks up at me with furrowed brows and a slight pout. I sigh and roll my eyes, "what do you want to do?" He smiles and pulls me up into the arcade.

"What type of games do you play?" I shrug and look around. I glance at Kaminari and notice his gaze attracted to a particular prize. It's a normal UFO catcher, so it's easy enough to get. I walk over to the machine and put in enough coins to play two rounds. "Don't you want to play an actual game L/N?" I look up and shrug.

"I don't have a preference." On my first round I pushed the toy down slightly, and on the second one I made sure the claw was further back to push it down fully. I kneel down and pull the large shiba inu plushie from the machine. "Here, you look like you wanted it." I hold it out to him and he looks at me with shining eyes.

"Are you sure?!" I roll my eyes and shove the doll into his chest. He smiles and thanks me drawing attention from surrounding people. I sigh and walk away from him. "L/N!" He says catching up to me hugging the stuffed animal. "Pick an actual game to play!"
