Todoroki Shouto has always believed he is meant to stand alone—cold, distant, and untouched by warmth. You, on the other hand, are everything he is not: gentle, steady, and quietly radiant. As he begins to pull away, convinced that loving him will only hurt you, the space between sun and moon grows painful. But even the longest night cannot exist without light.
Todoroki Shouto has always thought of himself as the moon.
Not because he’s admired, or mysterious, or beautiful in the way people like to romanticize—but because he is distant. Quiet. Cold in a way that feels permanent. The moon does not choose solitude; it simply exists apart.
He learned early on that warmth comes with conditions.
That love demands something in return.
So he keeps himself contained. Balanced. Careful.
Then there’s you.
You don’t blaze like the sun. You don’t demand attention or light up rooms just by entering them. Your warmth is softer than that—steady, patient, lingering. The kind that stays even when things grow quiet.
Todoroki doesn’t understand how someone like you keeps choosing to stand beside him.
He notices the way you slow your steps to match his, how you wait after training without saying why. He notices how you never force conversation, never fill silence just to ease your own discomfort. You sit with him like the quiet is something to be respected.
That makes it dangerous.
Because the more he notices, the more it hurts.
Little by little, he starts pulling away.
He answers slower. Keeps his distance. Leaves earlier than usual. You notice—of course you do—but you don’t chase him. You assume he needs space. You give it to him, even though it aches.
What you don’t see is the way Todoroki stares at his phone after walking away. Or how his chest tightens every time he almost turns back.
One night, the sky is heavy with clouds. The campus is quiet, snow barely clinging to the ground. You find him sitting alone outside, staring into the dark like he’s waiting for something to appear.
“You’ve been avoiding me,” you say softly.
He doesn’t look at you. Doesn’t deny it.
“I didn’t think you’d come,” he admits.
You sit beside him anyway. Close—but not touching.
“Why?” you ask.
He exhales slowly, like the answer has been weighing on him for days. “Because I don’t know how to stay without hurting you.”
That finally makes him turn toward you.
“You’re warm,” he continues, voice low. “You care easily. You give without hesitation. And people like me…” He swallows. “We go cold. We disappear. Eventually.”
The words sink deep, not because they’re cruel—but because they’re honest.
“You don’t disappear,” you say.
“I do,” he insists. “You just haven’t seen it yet.”
You reach for his hand. He tenses, instinctive, then stills when you don’t pull away.
“Shouto,” you whisper, “the moon doesn’t steal the sun’s warmth. They don’t cancel each other out. They just exist differently.”
He watches your joined hands like he doesn’t trust them to be real.
“I don’t want to be the reason you dim,” he says.
You shake your head gently. “You don’t dim me. You ground me.”
Silence stretches between you. The clouds shift slowly, and moonlight spills through—pale, steady, enough.
“I don’t know how to love without fear,” Todoroki admits. “Every time I get close, I think of what it cost before.”
You squeeze his hand. Firm. Reassuring.
“Then don’t love alone,” you say. “Let me stay while you learn.”
Something inside him gives.
He leans into you just slightly—testing, tentative—like someone who’s been cold for so long they’re afraid warmth will burn.
But it doesn’t.
You stay there together, sun and moon beneath a quiet sky. Not fixing each other. Not changing each other.
Just existing—
and for once, not alone.

midoriya : of course he’s extremely understanding of his s/o as he knows what it’s like to not have a quirk. he’ll always be respectful around you and make sure everyone else is as well, he won’t take any disrespect toward you. he’ll get really get really angry at bakugo if he tries to bully you like he did to him when they were younger, isn’t afraid to get physical if he doesn’t back off. if your ever feeling sad or insecure about the fact you’re quirkless he’ll always be there to comfort you and assure you that you’re the bravest person he has ever met, and that you don’t need a quirk to be a hero and help others.
todoroki : wouldn’t have the same understanding as midoriya but would definitely start trying when you two start dating. He never realised how hard it was being quirkless and the amount of shit you get from random people because of it. usually todoroki is a very calm and composed person but the second someone insults you he looses all of his composure, it definitely pisses him off that people make assumptions about you because of your lack of quirk and he will not hesitate to defend you - even if you are not present. he struggles to express his feelings, making it difficult to comfort people but despite that whenever you get sad or insecure because you are quirkless he will do his best to give you the comfort and reassurance that you need.
bakugo : yeah I think we all know how he acted when you first met him - at the start acting completely insensitive and underestimating you. though the more he was forced to hang out with you (because of mutual friends) the more he began realising how cool you actually were and maybeee developed a little bit of a crush. once you eventually get in a relationship he becomes very protective over you, if anyone says ANYTHING about you he will fiercely defend you - definitely getting physical sometimes… when your upset he isn’t the best with comforting you with words and instead shows you how much he cares about you with actions, even if it’s as small as ordering your favourite food or putting on something that you want to watch on the TV.
Passing Peonies - Post War Touya Todoroki - Part V
When the war ended, Midoriya Izuku had proven one thing: That Villains did not need to be killed to be defeated. That you could make friends from enemies.
Touya Todoroki, formerly known as Dabi, had been one of those taken into the rehabilitation program. After one year of intense physical and psychological therapy, he's got the chance to prove himself. To prove that he can be a part of this world.
Complete fic length: 30.600 words - Masterlist
Warnings: poor mental health and resentment against past actions is mentioned, burn scars etc. as well. There is angst but this is mostly soft Touya coming back to his family...
Part 5: (2k words)
“I have to say something.” Touya says and watches his therapist.
After more than a year of this he should be able to read him as well as the other way around, right? But he still comes up empty, day after day.
“I’m falling in love with my employer.”
“Go on.”
And it’s like that first time at your apartment, the worlds spilling from his lips like molten cheese, the first word pulling the second and third with it, and so on and so forth.
🌺.
“Hey, can we buy these?” He asks at the convenience store, pointing at a shelf of browning ZZ and pancake plants.
“If you want.” Fuyumi shrugs. “It’s your money.”
“Yeah, yeah. They’re not gonna die, don’t worry. If anything, I’m saving their life.”
“Whatever you say. Hey, you mind eating Curry again tonight?”
“Nah. But you could show me how to do it. I wouldn’t mind helping out with cooking.”
Fuyumi throws him a look he chooses to ignore, content on placing the plants inside the cart.
🌺.
“Be careful with the stems.” He tells Natsuo. “Don’t break them.”
“It’s not that easy, you fucker.” His brother curses. “How the fuck do you tie these ribbons? Is that witchcraft?”
“No, it’s a skill and you’re lacking it. If you can’t do it, let me. Just make sure there’s plant food in the water or the roses won’t keep fresh as long.
“Yeah, yeah. I just wanted to cut some flowers for Mom, not a lecture.”
“Be honest, you wanted both.”
🌺.
“You’re home late.” He says when Shouto drags himself inside. “Have you eaten anything today?”
“I had Soba.” His brother mentions and drapes himself over a chair as he starts taking off his uniform.
“I’m making you a grilled cheese. Miso soup too. You need to eat properly.”
“Thanks.” He hears a quiet mumble and so much more that’s left unsaid.
🌺.
His mother finds him outside, reading a book and taking samples of the earth around the garden, rubbing it between his fingers and sniffing it.
“Are you having fun?” She asks and places a pitcher of homemade lemonade and two glasses on the table, taking a seat to watch him work.
“It’s a shame we have mainly grass lawn, mom.” He explains to her, surprised by his own eagerness, his own growing interest. “If we planted bushes and flowers and expand on the diversity of plants, we could help foster not only bees but different types of butterflies and birds.”
“That does sound appealing. Why don’t you talk to your father about it?”
She smiles until her eyes reach a stump.
“I wish he would do something about that tree,” Rei tells him flatly. “It just wakes sad memories.”
He turns to look at the tree stump, surprised that it takes a moment to realize what she’s talking about.
He’d been about 9 years old, and when attacking Shouto did not work, he’d burned down that tree in a fit of rage, knowing exactly how much that tree meant to his parents, as they had been wed under it, in a time when they must have been happy, or as happy as they could have been.
🌺.
“Why’d you never take out the tree?” He asks his father one night after dinner, the two of them alone in the kitchen.
“The same reason I will always carry these scars, even if they could be healed.” He points to the scarring on his face. “It serves as a reminder, a call to change, to protect what I have with the right means.”
“But you could plant a new tree.” He looks out into the garden, pondering it. “Or plant them around it. As if they’d hug it.”
“I’ll think about it. Or better, I’ll let you think about it. If you have a proposal on how to change the garden, you can come to me with it and we’ll go over it.”
“Or you could just let me do it. It’s my job after all.”
“Oh?” Enji raises his eyebrows in a challenge. “You’re feeling up to this?”
“Absolutely!”
“Well, it’s settled then. How long do you need?”
“A day. I’ve got the plan mostly ready anyway, I just need the right weather and a free day to get it all together.”
“Great. You should have both this weekend. Your mother and I will be out of the house anyway, as I’ve booked an onsen for a weekend getaway. You can convince your siblings to leave you alone if you need them out of the house. You can have my credit card to purchase what you need.”
“The limitless one?”
Enji smiles. “Let’s not go overboard, we don’t need flowers made from diamonds.”
🌺.
It’s Sunday morning, barely past 9 a.m. and he’s already sweating bullets.
He’d thought that being able to sweat again would be a good thing - at least considering how well his skin grafts took to integrating into his body - but now he just feels plain disgusting. The garden looks like an absolute disaster after more than three hours going at it.
He’d started planting the tulips, realized that he wanted a peony bush in the middle of it, and had to dig some of them back out.
The stone path he’d wanted to relocate is now a heap of dirty stones in one corner and he’d managed to knock over the bag of fertilizer, spilling its contents everywhere.
He feels himself getting frustrated. And tired. This work is harder than he’d imagined it to be.
-
He decides to take a breather, regretting not talking the plan through with you yesterday when he’d had the chance. Just because he’d wanted to surprise you with the news on Monday, telling you proudly how great everything had worked out.
He ponders the problem from the kitchen sink, his second glass of water in hand.
Hawks and Natsuo could be used as backup muscle, but he doubts they’d come willingly.
Shouto’s on patrol and Fuyumi’s out visiting a friend.
What he really needs is someone who’d give him direction while letting him do his thing at the same time. What he really needs is you and while he’d never missed a Friday night, he’d kept his distance, or at least tried to, in the weeks since that night.
He knows it’s a good thing. That doesn’t mean he has to like it.
You pick up after the first ring.
“Hello?”
“Hi. Remember how you said I could call you if I ever had a plant emergency?”
“Of course. What’s the matter?”
“That’s the thing. I got free reign on redesigning our garden and it’s… well, it’s looking a bit awful right now.”
“Just a bit? That’s good news then.” He can hear you moving in the background.
“Very funny. I know today’s your free day but would you mind taking a look? I promise you won’t have to work, you can just sit back on the terrace and tell me what I have to do.”
“It’s no problem, Touya-kun. Just tell me your address.”
-
He realizes, probably five seconds before you ring the bell, that you might have no idea how rich the Todorokis really are.
But if you feel out of place in your scuffed-up trainers and grass-stained clothes, you’re not letting it show.
Touya explains his plan to you while he shows you the garden, pointing out what he’s already done and what he still has to do.
You nod and nod, look around and pinch the earth just like he’d done and he feels a little proud that he’d copied you without knowing.
Finally, you step up to him and point at the heap of stones.
“You wash them and put them where you want them. After that you take on one part of the garden after the other, minimizing trampling over done work. You’re a little early on the tulips but they should do well. Peonies are a bit risky at this spot and the way you’re planning it, you’re leaving no spot behind to actually use the garden.”
“Use it?” He blinks. “What do you mean?”
“Do you always sit on the terrace? Or do you sit on the lawn too?”
“Well, we used to play outside as children but we’ve grown out of that. I don’t know if Mom still sits outside.”
“Okay, that’s just as well. You just have to be aware of everyone’s needs if you plan for a whole family. What will you do about the tree?”
He should have known you would notice it the second you stepped outside.
Even if you only point it out now he can tell you’re affected by it. He sighs.
“It burned down when I was about 9. Mom says it makes her sad and my father wants to keep it as a reminder. I… well, I wanted to plant things around it, so that it would seem like the plants would hug it, maybe?”
“Why?”
Your eyes are on him, your question digging deeper than he thought it could.
“When I… When I…” He coughs and tries again. “When I… almost died… at the war… I remember coming to, waking up to my family hugging me, as if they were holding me together, keeping me in one piece. I like that picture.”
You hum.
“So now we know what your mother wants, what your father wants, and what you want. What about your siblings?”
“I don’t know. I didn’t ask.”
“You said that you felt like Touya had to die for Dabi to live and Dabi had to die for Touya to live but for your family, they were always one and the same. It’s the same with the tree, isn’t it? Whether it stays or it goes, it seems dead to all of you. Have you ever thought of the possibility of it being still alive?”
Touya knows, in theory, that you’re still talking about the tree. But it feels like you’re talking about him.
Has he ever thought of the possibility of himself being alive?
-
You kneel down in front of the stump and hug it, your cheek resting on the place where it had been cut down.
It feels personal, like you’re hugging him and you’re not hugging him until you’re starting to hum, a tune he’s heard so often he can hear himself tune in.
Under your arms the tree stump glows faintly until it grows and grows, two thick stems rising up and pushing your face away, entwining and circling each other, growing up and up and up. They’re the height of a bush, a person, taller now than the first tree had been, its foliage a friendly green that smiles down at him.
You sink to the floor next to it and he’s too slow to catch you, can only pick you up and carry you inside, your sleeping form fitting too well into his arms.
-
He washes the stones and places them, thinking about himself at age 9. He finishes his display of tulips and peonies and thinks about himself, waking up from a coma.
With every flower bulb he plants, and every bush he places, he thinks about the past.
It’s therapeutic, in a way, to feel himself come alive in this place.
He’d wondered if this was growing into a new obsession, but could it be an obsession when it feels so healthy?
By the time you step back out, he’d started placing the plants he wants to “hug” their family tree.
“Sleep well?” Touya asks when you kneel down next to him and dig your hands into the dirt.
“I’ve never been able to grow a tree in one sitting.” You explain to him, your voice soft. “But it wanted to grow.”
“Yeah.” He looks up at the foliage. “He’s been waiting for his chance long enough.”
“What are you going to name it?”
Toya looks at the two stems that are intertwined now. “Enji and Rei.”
um- what if I wanna give the MHA/BNHA boys a forehead kith😚
you can pick the characters!!
love you the most, have a nice day/night ❤
Love you too baby bat !!! ^^
Forehead kisses .
Katsuki will resist. He would be all angry as usual and will push you away because you are in his own personal space . BUT if you somehow manage to get in his personal space without being plowed up AND kissed his forehead. He will be a blushing mess . He will act like he is Red from being angry but It's all lies . And the next thing you know he is not so aggressive about it . Still will act angry about it . But he secretly likes it ^^
Iida will be confused when you walk to him setting down and smile and kiss his forehead. But once you do it he will blush so dark and try to say it's inappropriate. But he will mumbled a small thank you and will admit loving it because it's warm and safe .
Denki will hug you . I see denki as a very very energetic character. So if you walked to kiss his forehead, he would giggle and Clapp his hands and hug you tightly. Having a slightly soft blushe on his face while kissing your cheek as a thank you .
Todoroki will be confused. Super confused . And will look at you like a lost kitten and as why will you do this . So you will end up the next hour explaining it's just an act of affection . Poor boy is missing tons of if affection.
Kirishima say it's so manly and it became a habit after , he will kiss your head every now often and will hug you tons . He is a very touchy person as long as you are comfortable with it !
Mina ashido squeals. She giggle and blushe and hug you . She allows it soooo much because she really likes when people are so comfortable with her to this point .
I appreciate the likes, and thanks for following me btw! My words won't explain anything about my happiness I am so happy that my eye started 'sWeAtInG' (SHUT THE HELL U- Silence darling it's my time to shine..) and ya'll all are goddesses for liking and following MUCH APPRECIATED,
My hearts trying to break free...
Warning - spelling mistakes, fluff, a confused Todoroki
It's just Todoroki tryna figure out why he gets sick around you but still it feels good and feel like sometimes when you do something affectionately why he feels like someone's attacking him in his stomach (poor lil boy) 🥹
•you don't get rejected always, keep on trying•
You were making your way to school while listening to your favourite song it always made you feel like the main character I mean who doesn't like being the main character?
You successfully made it inside the school building without getting kidnapped, murdered, getting hit by a car, getting lost etc...
You walked down the busy hallway as you saw people giving love letters to thier crushes.. people with sad faces because of getting rejected by their dream man/women... You were wondering why all this confessions were happening you went pass the school auditorium to see the entrance decorated with hearts and flowers and with the letters cut my glitter paper 'HAPPY VALENTINES 1 more day before valentine's and 4 more days to our valentine's dance!'...
That's when you start to realize you have a very big crush on todoroki but he just runs away from you like your presence is literally his death 💀..
You went to your locker, thinking about todoroki and taking your textbooks out for Chemistry and when you were making your way to chemistry you saw mina, deku, and ochako surrounded around todoroki u didn't want to annoy them so you just minded your business and went for Chemistry..
Todoroni pov:
"Guys y/n has a secret quirk.." Todo Boi
Said in an calm and concerned voice
"what do you mean todoro-" mina got cut off by the sweet cinnamon roll Izuku "WHAT! Y/n has a secret quirk how- why would she not say anything about it to me? What's it like todoroki? *Mummer mummer mummer* "
"ignore that Todo continue what you were saying.." mina said in curiosity.
"whenever, she looks at me I get nervous and sometimes when she does stuff I get hearts attacks that feel good and I feel like someones punching my stomach sometimes and it-" todoroni got cut off by the girls laughter "oh todoroki, your in looooveee!" Mina said in a teasing way.
"oh yes that's exactly how I feel around izuk-" 'I can float' slapped her mouth close with both her hands "mummer- hmm? Did anyone say my name?" Cinnamon roll asked in curiosity "NO IZUKU! NO ONE EVEN THOUGHT ABOUT YOUR NAME" ochako said panickingly. "Well I expected for me to get satisfied by you both accepting each other but.. back to you Todoroki!..." Mina said as the word sarcastic wrote itself on her words "How do I get rid of them?" Shoto asked innocently asked. "Well, you gotta confess or there is no way you can get rid of em no... It stays for ever if she accepts you I mean Todo you can feel like that forever" Uraraka said to todoroki hesitantly. " Sometimes, try taking your own advice ochako, now Todo you should go confess to y/n" mina said excitingly. "K," he ran off to find his beloved. "MINA Do you think he's gonna say I love you or SOMETHING ELSE?!? what ... What IF HE GETS REJECTED?!?" Ochako said scaredly "oh oh..."
(YALL, they should add more shades of letter colours bcz ochako and mina are both pink but I'm sorry mina I turned your text to minata and jiro color 😭")
POV OF THE BEAUTIFUL TODO'S PRINCESS Y/N L/N - (omg so beautiful 😭)
You were listening to more music peacefully copying down some notes you missed, sitting near a beautiful tree. You saw todoroki running towards you like he have some very serious news.. you got up bcz u felt like you should.
He reached you and started panting like a dog (kinda ho- no no gurl no NO!)
He calmed down and said "y/n everytime I see you my hot side cheek started to feel warm and what's weird is the same happens to my cold side cheek, and when you compliment me when I win a training fight I feel like someone punches my stomach and when you do something like a simple thing like talking to me I get heart attacks and it's like it my hearts trying to break free" he said I love you in a big speech but It wasn't and I love you for you the way he described it made it sound like he hates you.
"....you hate me that much?... what did I even do to you?" Y/n said brokenly.
"you make me sick everytime I see you- why are you crying?" Todo said worriedly
"do you have anything else to say? I friggin hate you.." you said and started running away from him as you cried yourself untill you got home..
He picked up your note book that you left near the tree and tried giving it back to you but you were already gone from his sight. He felt a little guilty for making you cry he has no idea what happened.
He took your note book home with him and set it down his table and went through it. He found his name and poems for him written all over the note book with hearts written all over, he remembered a romance movie he was forced to watch by mina.. there was a girl like who liked a boy, and she just wrote his name all over her books. Then he got it... 'she likes me too,... "maybe it was the way I said it" he repeated to the words you said to Siri and Siri replied to him saying
'that's really rude of you'
He felt bad. He wanted to make it up to you he researched about how to confess to girls how to make girls feel better etc, he called your friends to find out about every detail of you he worked on his y/n project whole night.
SATURDAY 5.30 P.M.
You were lying on your bed rolled up in your aesthetic comfy blanket with a squish mellow next to you as you were watching a movie that was not evolved to any type of Romance cause you were doing all this to feel better from yesterday's todoroki hates me speech. "that's really dum-" you heard a knock on your door your father and mother were out so you got a little scared you looked outside through your opened window hesitantly to see pokéball themed hair, and a big (when I say big ITS BIG DARLING) bouquet of your favourite flowers as you looked closer you realized it was todoroki "TODOROKI?!?" you slapped your mouth and hoped that he didn't hear you sudden vomit of words. He looked up at you as you blushed slightly "would you care to come down please, and accept these flowers and chocolates as a gift of my apologies to you?" He said charmingly "why the hell would I do that you hate me don't you do you think a bunch a flowers are gonna make me forgive you?!" You said loudly so he can hear "please, it's just a few words please ..." He asked in such a cute way. Your enemybor (your enemy neighbor) looked at you madly through their window, you felt a little awkward feeling and came to the thought of taking Todo inside. You ran downstairs and opened the door for todoroki "I'm not letting you in cause I feel bad for you it's because of the neighbors stares." You said sternly. "Look y/n-" he got cut off "oh, shut up please.." you said angrily "please y/n" he pleaded with innocent poppy dog eyes. "fine, better be a good explain" you rolled you eyes. He took a deep breath in "I meant to say how I feel around you but it came out wrong the guy punching my stomach was meant to be called butterflies I just described them in my sense I'm really sorry" he bowed to you and bent in his knees and said " please, y/n I need you in my life I'd rather die without you please all I meant to say is I love you" he handed you the big bouquet of expensive flowers. "Are you for real I'm so happy! I love you soo much todo-kun I'm really sorry too!" You said happily taking the flowers from him. "that's great, do you want to go to the dance? I don't like the crowd that much but If you want to go we should go." he charmingly smiled at you with pink dusted on his cheeks. "No we should watch a movie and stay in our home comfort wrapped in a blanket enjoying each other's presence while others suffer in itchy uncomfy costumes in the dance!" You confessed you idea and todoroki happily agreed and then you sat next to each other and talked about you lives
As you were feeding yourselves the chocolate todoroki brought shoto got reminded of something important "by the way, here's your notebook you left it in school I went through it, you spelled my name wrong in the 3rd sentence of your poem." he said while hiding his face away from you and rubbing his neck "Have your mom not told you to no to go through people stuff?!?" You said embarrassed while forming into the cutest beetroot "no but, my mom thought me how dangerous and hot a kettle can be besides you my girl friend now." He said innocently "oh, you sweetheart Todo" you said while petting his head "oh no... It's happening again y/n.... it's doing it again." he said as concern was all over his face "why?!? Are you good?" You said worriedly "my hearts trying to break free.."
I don't wanna fix more errors my hands are litterely broken y I'm sorry I hope you enjoy this and feel free to tap double times and give me a like if you like this as always if you think I need to improve feel free to give me a piece of advice have a great day and stay beautiful!
