Lizard Queen *EDITING*

Four Musketeers *Edited*

When morning came you were more than reluctant to talk to Shinsou but, it had to be done. You found out that his parents didn't like him because he was a wild card that had a 'villainous' quirk and was going to get rid of him. Pissed you had Aizawa watch them as you went straight to his home which was surprisingly 15 minutes from where you lived. You'll admit you were not kind and after some heated words, you used your quirk to scare them into relinquishing their rights properly especially since you had evidence of abuse, lack of clothes, lack of food, use of a muzzle, and dried blood and vomit in the basement where they kept him. It wasn't a long process and, by the end of it, you had more people both like and dislike you which didn't matter. You told Shinsou the news and, understandably he didn't believe you until a week later when the police came and told him he does not have to go back, he can stay with you if that's what he wanted. The wailing that came out of that little body was tremendous but, it was of relief something a five-year-old should not be feeling. Now though? He was happy, of course, he wasn't used to it but, he was so much better. He laughed freely, and with little hesitance, he would ask for food or something to drink and, you wouldn't get mad at him for anything. One time he dropped a plate, it cracked and he went into hysterics curling up into a ball. It took you and Tenko to calm him down that you weren't mad, it was an accident, it's okay. Maybe murder could be legal in your book? Hmm.

"You're making a weird face mama." You looked at Tenko who started mushing your face. You glanced over at Shinsou who was watching you two interact. He did that a lot and, whenever Tenko did something he would do it too later on just to see if he can do it too. You never denied him but, let him do everything at his pace. Each kid is different.

"Is it better now?" You stuck your tongue out loving the weird cackle he made. "What do you think Toshi?" You made the same face, tail moving excitedly when he gave a small smile. He moved forward and very hesitantly placed his hands on your face. You leaned lightly into his hold which he adored gaining more confidence. He mushed your face giggling. Nothing is more precious to you than the giggles of a child. Once satisfied he went back to the game he was playing with Tenko. You went to the laptop to check your emails about that school enrollment. Ever since you got Hitoshi, you started doing book reviews online using the extra money to buy him all the things he needed. The elderly couple at the bakery adored Hitoshi and had no problem watching him and Tenko while you worked. The regular patrons found out about you adopting the two and thankfully were very calm and chill about it. As they should be because whoever you adopt is none of their business but yours and whoever else you choose it to be. Two of the regulars that always struck up a conversation with you were a guy named Jin who constantly argued with himself in two different voices and a magician that called himself Mr. Compress. He has yet to tell you his real name saying 'a magician never spills his secrets.' Such a strange man. He and Jin knew each other and seemed to have gone to school together or whatever. Toshi and Tenko both got attached to them and you don't know how to feel about that. You'll find out though. "Toshi guess what!" You turned to him with a smile "You'll be with Zuzu, Kiripima, and Tenko!" His eyes widen as Tenko gasped.

"He gets to go to school with us! Yay!" He hugged Hitoshi letting go when he flinched but, was pulled back in by a determined and happy Toshi.

"Do you boys want ice cream?" You were going to spoil the absolute hell out of them for as long as you can.

"YEAH!!" You giggled as they scurried to put their shoes on. It was hot outside so you chose to wear the dress they both liked. It was a flowy flower dress that was cut out in the front. You didn't like dresses and skirts so much since they exposed your scars but, you'll do anything to make them smile. Even if it means being stared at and ridiculed.

"You boys are ready?" You put on sandals letting your hair do its own thing cause fuck it. They nodded happily each one grabbing your hand as all three of you left the apartment. You bumped into Eraserhead on your way out waving as the boys excitedly smiled at him. "You want me to pick you up something on my way back?" You knew he would say no but, you wouldn't listen.
