you were someone in the middle. you had no mega praise for heros to speak of, but you also had no ill will towards villains either- you had seen both sides. after a few years running a hidden, underground medical base for villains who needed treatment beneath the bar that you ran and owned, you've met your fair share of villains. it was odd to think of them as good people, since you depended on them a lot if you got yourself into a pinch. in fact, a lot of your patients became bar regulars on the public downlow. it's not a big shock that you met dabi among the years. -------------- genre: real-world to parallel world au? (is that an au? it'll make sense dw), angst, romance, pinning, fools to lovers? (or dabi is stubborn/scared as all get out), longing/yearning (teehee)
