hey yall! wanted to say that altruism is going to go on a bit of a break because im struggling with life right now. really sorry about this
if anyones interested in the next chapter, bakugou and y/n's conversation has already been written! so heres a sneak peek:
"I was not trying to look down on you, at all! You're amazing." I insisted, my voice filled with genuine admiration. "You're a force to be reckoned with, Bakugou. Your quick thinking and resilience in the face of danger is incredible! If anything, I look up to you."
"Shut up, you're starting to sound like Deku." Bakugou's response was characteristically gruff.
-----------------
"If I had to guess, that portal-dude's quirk is sort of similar to mine. So, maybe, they wanted another person to teleport them... except my quirk doesn't work like that!" I changed topics, eager to steer the conversation away from the awkward revelation.
"And I would never side with them, over my dead body!" I declared vehemently. "The League of Villains is full of traumatized adults that need to be hospitalized—I'm serious!"
Bakugou watched me with wide eyes, his expression a mix of surprise and amusement. And then, to my astonishment, laughter escaped his lips, quickly masked by a cough in a feeble attempt to regain his composure. My mouth went agape, a spark of hope ignited within me. He didn't hate me so much after all!
