I am like the biggest sucker for time travel fics.
I have this perfect headcanon for a BNHA scenario where lil hero-student Midoriya and Todoroki are hit by a quirk that sends them into the future, and literally the best plan to keep them safe is to send them to Hero Con because they’ll blend into the crowd while also getting the plus of a relaxing break from the stress of the League.
You get these videos and pictures and scenes throughout the day of Convention goers meeting them and freaking out about their perfect replica suits from such-and-such-a year.
Midoriya freaks out over quirks and spends the whole time gushing while Todoroki is standing there holding some ice creams that they’ve bought and re-freezing Midoriya’s every time it starts to melt because he’s so distracted. Midoriya finally notices after like twenty minutes and gets all flustered and flattered and excited because Todoroki is using his quirk in another helpful, nuanced way.
Videos of Midoriya getting excited and pulling Todoroki along behind him when he notices a booth that has merchandise for their friends.
Todoroki pointing out all the Deku cosplayers and Midoriya crying.
Convention goers being like “I love your dedication to the cosplay. You’re even talking to each other like they did when they were 15. Using formal names and everything”
“Oh my gosh, can you do the Polarize face?”
“Can you do an impression of Deku when—”
*noticing Todoroki with the icecream* “Oh you even have a quirk like Polarize, that’s so cool!”
About Midoriya: “does he have an illusion quirk? Is that why your makeup is so good? Or an analysis quirk? Or is his quirk just, like, tears?”
Midoriya getting a Polarize hoodie (after reassurances that it’s ok to spend money) to wear over his uniform with the credit card that Older Todoroki gave them for the day.
Their older classmates popping in and around the convention to surprise them and keep an eye on them and check in.
Someone trying to tell Midoriya that his costume is off somehow because “Deku didn’t wear his braces like that back in 2XXX”
Midoriya wearing himself out and drifting off in his hoodie, leaning on Todoroki’s warm side while Todoroki gives him a piggyback through the convention hall.
The quirk wearing off and sending them home, only for them to forget what happened, but leaving them feeling refreshed and happy.
Random convention goers who met them being upset that the two of them didn’t win the costume competition, only to find out that they Actually Were Deku and Polarize.
