yep, i got both your asks! it takes me a while to get to my inbox, forgive any future slow replies!

yaoyorozu

- was raised in a rich, “proper” family with lots of long, important dinners and dances/parties

- she wasn’t allowed to leave the table or the room during these parties, especially not for something as trivial as needing to pee, so she learned from a young age to hold it for long periods of time

- sometimes when she was having a true emergency, she would create absorbent things like towels or pads and sneak them under her crotch to let off a bit of the edge, although sneaking the wet rags out of the room was always awkward and she almost got caught multiple times

- she tends to do this in class when she’s absolutely bursting as well, since she sits in the back. however she goes bright red whenever she does and often draws unwanted attention to herself

- in general she has a small bladder, but also a great amount of self-control. she can sit completely still up until she’s five minutes away from full-on wetting herself

- her version of squirming around is tapping her fingers or her foot--she would never dare hold her crotch or dance around in public, but she does allow herself to cross her legs since it’s seen as “ladylike” anyway

- her close friends (aka jirou and todoroki) are the only ones who can tell when she’s getting desperate. she has an almost perfect poker face and her tells are very, very minuscule, so it takes a lot to realize

- she hates public restrooms and only uses them when she absolutely can’t hold it anymore, which leads to more close calls than she’d like to admit

- when she finally gets to piss after hours of desperation she lets out a lot of light, breathy gasps and moans, but tries to keep quiet in case anyone is listening from the outside

uraraka

- as a child raised in a low-income family, she spent most of her childhood sharing a bathroom with her mother and father

- her mother got home from her very early shifts at work about the same time that she got off school, so they tended to head for the bathroom around the same time. usually her mother would get in first and take a long shower, and uraraka would be left squirming in her room, trying to hold it for a few minutes more

- she doesn’t like using the school bathrooms because they were pretty gross at her old school, but she doesn’t mind the ones at ua

- she loves strawberry flavored drinks and has no self-control around them, so when she gets offered a few too many it usually ends up in her getting desperate within the same hour (usually being the class right after lunch, where she has to squirm and shift as subtly as she can to hold it through the hour)

- she has a regular-sized bladder and tends to forget that she needs to go until she’s already on her way to being desperate, usually on the walk home from school or in the middle of class

- she’s pretty vocal about her need to pee, not being ashamed to admit it but also not playing it up or complaining too much. she wasn’t raised to believe that needing the bathroom was bad so she tends to speak up about it if she needs to go

Neal absolutely hates the dark. If the power goes out it sends him into an anxiety attack. He always has candles and flashlights (with extra batteries)  in his cupboards just in case something happens.

 Part of him finds comfort in light; it makes him feel a little less alone. Another part of him is terrified that Peter Pan will try to take him back to Neverland. He learned quickly that the only way to keep Pan away is by having some sort of light turned on. 

While working to escape Neverland, he kept a coconut nightlight going in the cave he lived in. Living on the streets in the U.S., Neal tended to stick to well-lit districts. If he couldn’t, Neal would steal whatever light-source he could get his hands on. Even in Manhattan or Storybrooke or wherever he lives he keeps his space lit. 

To backtrack a little, while living with Emma in the Yellow Bug, he always kept a little votive candle going. Not for him, though. It was to protect Emma. He felt certain Pan would try and take her. He was afraid of losing her.
