Skin Tone: (s/t)

Quirk: Compel

Your quirk allows you to very strongly suggest a person to do something, and the longer that person resists, the more they find themselves wanting to do it. This can go so far as to the person shaking and sweating to try and keep from listening to you.

Drawbacks: You get tired easily, but with some extra food or a short nap, you are back to your normal self.

You are a very organized person and are very similar to Iida in terms of keeping things in order and people on time. Your motivation is your parents, who are very strong and well-known heroes, and they pressure you non-stop to make sure you stay at the top.

-Third Person POV-

Y/N's day starts off pretty normal for him. He gets up at five o'clock in the morning, gets dressed and brushes his teeth, then goes for a morning run on campus. Each morning, the run takes about an hour, but his time has become a lot quicker, so it only takes him about 45 minutes to complete his route. He tires quickly, however, because he hadn't been sleeping well, but we'll get more into that later.

Once he is done, he takes a quick shower before he combs his (h/l) (h/c) hair and gets dressed in his uniform. By this time, it is usually around 6:30 am, so he makes his way downstairs to start making a simple yet somewhat healthy breakfast for everyone even though he knows most people won't eat it.

The first person to arrive in the common area is Bakugou, who ignores the taller males and begins to make his own breakfast. "Good morning, Bakugou-san! Hope hope you rested well!" Y/N says excitedly. The blond just grunts in response, but Y/N doesn't pay any mind to it as the elevator opens once again, revealing a tired-looking Midoriya and an energetic Uraraka.

"Good morning, L/N-san! What's for breakfast this morning?" Uraraka asks excitedly, licking her lips at the delicious smells wafting in from the kitchen.

"Good morning, it is (favorite breakfast) this morning, it just so happens to be my favorite. I thought I would share it with you all!" Y/N answers back just as enthusiastically. Uraraka immediately grabs a plate and begins filling it up, followed shortly by Midoriya, who just yawns quietly and says a soft 'thank you.'

Wow, he must be tired, Y/N thinks to himself. He's usually just as energetic as Uraraka. Y/N shrugs it off and greets everyone as they get off the elevator, getting more anxious as he waits for a certain someone to get off.

Just as he starts to worry, the elevator dings softly and a head of blue hair and a pair of glasses walks off, immediately smiling at the shorter (h/c)-haired male. "Good morning, L/N-san, how was your sleep?" Iida asks the shorter male loudly. "I slept well, as I hope you did, Iida-san!"

Iida tilts his head to the side slightly, taking notice of something no one had noticed yet, the bags underneath Y/N's (e/c) orbs, making them seem more prominent. Y/N notices his staring and quickly looks away, moving to assist with the others who were making a mess of food in the kitchen.

Iida frowns and shifts his jaw slightly in thought, trying to figure out why the (h/c)-ette had lied to him about his sleep. As far as Iida knows, Y/N tells him everything, including how his parents pressure him into being the best, and how Y/N wants nothing more than to make them proud. When Y/N had first told Iida about how strongly his parents felt about him coming out on top, he agreed with them, saying how Y/N should always strive to be the best he can. But as time went on, Iida began to see the strain that Y/N's parents were putting on their son.

Maybe this is what was causing it?, Iida thinks to himself.

-Iida POV-

As I continue to watch L/N the next couple of days, I notice more and more how tired he looks, to the point where the others have started to notice as well. Even Bakugou expressed concern for the (h/c)-haired male. But every time a concern for him is voiced, he waves it off, saying he's fine.

It's decided, then. I'm going to confront him about it tonight.

-Short Timeskip to After Dinner-

I wait for everyone to leave the kitchen area and go either hang out in the common area or head to their dorms for the night, watching as L/N begins to put the extra food away and wash the dishes. I grab a towel and walk over to the shorter male, taking a wet plate and trying it. He jumps visibly at my sudden appearance, more than he usually would. I frown but don't say anything other than, "I would like to talk to you later in your dorm."

He looks at me in surprise but my face tells him that he doesn't exactly have a choice or say in the matter, so he only nods and goes back to silently washing the dishes.

The whole process takes us about an hour as we are washing dishes of over 20 people. Once we are done, he immediately bolts for the elevator before he decides that the stairs would be quicker. I shake my head and get ready to use my quirk, earning looks from those who are in the common area.

Kirishima speaks up. "Uh, Iida-san, is everything okay?"

"It will be," I reply shortly, then take off up the stairs after L/N. I reach him just as he goes to shut - and I'm sure lock - the door. I stick my foot in the door, wincing as he tries to shut it. He looks at me in shock, before he says one word.

"Leave."

Immediately, I feel his quirk washing over me, but one thing I have learned about his quirk, is he needs to be specific with his demands. And he hasn't given me a destination to leave to. He hasn't seemed to have caught on, though, so I am able to resist his quirk just long enough to slip in the door.

"No."

He looks shocked at how I am able to resist and I feel the pressure lift off my mind that I hadn't realized was there. "You used your quirk on me, L/N...."

He looks down to his feet, ashamed that he had done it. "I'm sorry, Iida-san, I know I shouldn't have but I was a little scared, I didn't know what you wanted to talk to me about...."

I close my eyes for a moment, letting out a quiet sigh before beginning to speak again. "I just want to know why you look so tired everyday. You look exhausted, like you haven't had a good night's rest in weeks.

I see his shoulders sag even more, so I gently take my finger under his chin, forcing him to look up at me. "I'm worried about you, Y/N." He flinches at the use of his name but a light pink begins to dust his cheeks.

I tilt my head to one side as I reach my hand to his cheeks and forehead, feeling to see if either are warm. "Are you ill, L/N-san?"

He quickly shakes his head and removes my hands from his face. "Then tell me why you aren't sleeping," I say, gently pressing for him to explain himself. He shakes his head rapidly.

"I can't, you'll laugh at me, or even worse, make fun of me," he says in the softest voice possible, so soft that I actually have to strain to hear him. He walks over to his bed and flops down, leaving me to stand in the middle of his floor.

"You know I would never make fun of you or laugh at something you're struggling with, L/N-san," I say, walking over to him. He moves to cover his face with his hands but I quickly grab his wrists and pull him so he and I are almost nose-to-nose. He face flushes a deep scarlet, and I feel myself holding back a satisfied smirk. "You're going to tell me what is wrong, I'm not leaving this very position until you do." I say softly.

He shudders softly but nods. "O-okay, I'll tell you...." He scoots over on his bed, leaving room for me to sit beside him. I sit beside him, my weight pushing the bed down further and causing him to fall into me a bit. I pretend not to notice as his face stays as red as a strawberry.

"I've been really struggling with my parents lately, they want me to find someone with a suitable quirk to force a quirk marriage, but I won't be able to..." He speaks softly but clearly, making sure I can understand every word. I frown at his words. "Why would they want you to have a quirk marriage, and why won't you be able to find someone suitable?" I ask almost as softly.

He mumbles something that I can't quite make out. "What was that?" I ask him.

"Idon'tlikegirlssohowcanimarryone?"

"I still have no idea what you are saying...."

"I'm saying I'm gay! I don't like girls! I don't want to marry a girl that I'm never going to be able to have an actual relationship with because it's impossible to have a baby if you aren't together -you know - that way...." He speaks very quickly, saying everything all in one breath.

My eyes widen and I can't stop the excitement that I'm sure is written all over my face. He looks at me in confusion. "Did I break you? Oh, god, you're going to laugh at me, I knew it-"

I cut him off by gently placing my lips on his, holding them there for just a moment before pulling away. When I do, his face is in complete shock and is redder than a beet. I chuckle softly. "I'm gay, too, Y/N-kun. In fact, I've liked you for quite awhile now."

He pauses before a huge smile grows on his face, launching himself onto me, hugging me tightly.

"I like you, too, Iida, I'm so glad you accepted this!"

I pulls his face away gently then press a soft kiss to his lips. "Then how about I ask you this: Would you go on an official date with me this weekend, Y/N?"

"Maybe in Another Lifetime"

Info

I made a hero name for Shinsou since there are no actual confirmed names, other than Mindjack in the card game so he is referred to as “Whisperer” throughout this fic.

Name: L/n Y/n

Age: 21 (You and Shinsou are Pro Heroes now)

Height: 5'5

Hair Color: (h/c)

Hair Length: (h/l)

Eye Color: (e/c)

Skin Tone: (s/t)

Hero Name: Thermo-Meter

Quirk: Temperature Control

Your quirk allows you to heat or cool a person's body temperature to the point of them freezing or being cooked to death. You usually don't use it to that extreme, unless it is an extreme case. The farthest distance you can use your quirk is 50 meters.

Drawbacks: Once you begin using your quirk, your body becomes slowly weaker and you have a much harder time moving your body, meaning you try to use your quirk at a distance as much as possible.

You and Shinsou have been together since your final year at UA, and once you graduated, he proposed and you guys became engaged. You are now both 21 and are Pro Heroes.

*****

-Third Person POV-

Y/N and Shinsou have been together for a few years now and are planning for their wedding to be the next coming fall. They are both extremely excited and have everything planned out.

But tonight, they aren't thinking about their upcoming wedding. They were thinking about this villain, who seems to have unlimited connections and numerous allies in this society. Y/N is currently doing research while Shinso is on patrol, while wearing an earpiece that connects him to his beautiful fiance at home. This way, if he needs any help, he can immediately have backup and Y/N can call for more if needed.

"How are things going out there, Hitoshi?" Shinsou hears a soft voice through his earpiece, making a very small smile appear on his face.

"Everything is quiet for right now, but now that I say that, I can't imagine it will stay like that for very long," he replies with a quiet sigh. He always jinxed himself when he said those words, but never seemed to learn his lesson.

There is a chuckle on the other end as Y/N laughs. "Just keep an eye out and let me know if you need backup, okay?" she says quietly, as if speaking too loud would alert people near her fiance that he was near.

"I will only ask you to come if I am in immediate danger," he says, frowning. He is always worrying about her because of the drawbacks of her quirk. Granted, whenever she uses it, she is very careful about keeping a distance so as to not get hurt.

He hears another soft sigh as she just shakes her head. "I'm not fragile, you know. I am quite capable of taking care of myself, that's why you are marrying me."

He lets out one of his beautiful, quiet laughs that only she gets to hear and nods, even though she can't see him. "That's very true, butterfly. I'll be back soon, I only have a few more blocks to patrol and I'll be back at the agency. I love you."

"I love you, too, Toshi."

Little do they know, they'll be seeing each other sooner than they realize.

~Small Timeskip~

"Themo-Meter, I need you to get here as soon as possible. I think I've found something, but I need some extra hands," Y/N hears through her earpiece. Immediately, she changes into her hero costume, which is a black, skintight body suit with a small belt holding different sized knives and blades. These were only ever used if absolutely necessary, but she always carries them just in case. She also wears a mask over her face, only showing her (e/c) eyes, with fingerless gloves and black, knee-high combat boots. She laces them up and mutters into the earpiece, "I'm on my way."

-Shinsou POV-

"Whisperer, I am here and a few others are on the way. What is your location?" Shinsou hears through the earpiece. "I'm around the back of the building."

After a few minutes, he hears almost imperceptible footsteps, ones that he had trained himself to listen for. Then he sees the person he had been waiting on. His beautiful fiance, Y/N.

"Who else did you call, Thermo-Meter," he asks, using her hero name, just in case someone is listening.

"Endeavor, Hawks, and Mirko, they were the only ones I could get ahold of." I nodded in response. "I think I've found him. Nightmare."

Nightmare's quirk is terrifying. He can make you see whatever you fear most by breathing in a gas that he secretes. So far, I have only fallen victim to it once, and I had known it wasn't real because the vision I saw that was supposed to be my worst nightmare, was Y/N getting killed. And I know that she would never put herself in enough danger to get hurt so bad that she was killed.

She, as far as I know, has never experienced it and I want to make sure it never happens. But tonight felt different than our usual battles. It's eerily quiet and there is a horrible feeling of dread in the pit of my stomach. I try to shake it off as best as I can, though, because even though my quirk is powerful, if the villain knows not to respond to me, I have to use combat. And I can't fight well if my nerves are getting the better of me.

All of a sudden, I hear a sound, almost like a thud. Y/N glances at me and I nod back, both of us moving in sync towards the sound inside the building.

I see movement out of the corner of my eye and whip around to face it and see a small time villain. He seems to realize we are not who he thinks we are and immediately shouts out a warning to whoever might also be in the building. I can only think of one thing.

'Shit, there goes our element of surprise.'

I don't panic, though, because Y/N is already using her quirk to freeze him, making him unable to move any more. I chuckle, knowing it won't affect her just yet, she hasn't used it very much tonight to cause any damage to her yet.

"Prepare yourself, Whisperer, we need to be extra careful now. We don't have backup yet and we no longer have surprise on our side."

She once again speaks softly, this time consciously, being very careful to not alert any others of our whereabouts just yet. She then nods to the stairs and begins to climb, me right behind her. Her steps are silent and careful, being the stealth hero she is known for being.

She suddenly stops, motioning for me to as well. We both freeze as we hear voices. "You heard him, there are heroes here now. We need to leave before they find us."

There is laughing, then a high-pitched male voice speaks. "You idiot, we want them to find us. Rumor has it, Whisperer has been working with an underground hero to locate me. Once I have him, I'll make him listen to me, not the other way around."

The first voice must be confused, because he laughs again. "Oh, you don't know what his quirk is, do you? Oh this will be so fun!"

Y/N looks back at me, nodding very slightly. I shake my head quickly, knowing she's going to try and get a look at the two voices to incapacitate them. If they see her, she's going to be in more danger than I think I can protect her from.

Once again, I hear a strange sound, only it's the sound of feet landing outside, just a few floors below us. Heavy footsteps follow softer ones into the building.

In my earpiece, I hear a new voice, but one I recognize to be Hawks. "Whisperer, Thermo-Meter, Endeavor and I have arrived, Mirko is on the way. What is your location?"

Immediately, the two speaking just a floor above us stop and go completely silent. That's not a good sign.

"Whisperer, Thermo-Meter, I repeat, what is your location?" I can hear Hawks voice start to shake a bit with worry. Then we hear Endeavor's gruff voice. "Go upstairs, they must be higher up."

Heavy footsteps are once again heard as they near us. Once they round the corner, I move in front of Y/N, higher on the steps than her now. Once Hawks sees me motioning to be quiet, he does the same to Endeavor. Hawks then leans in and whispers to both of us. "I'll go ahead, I can move without touching the ground, I'll be quieter."

We all three nod and see Hawks fly ahead of us, waiting for his signal to go ahead. After a minute or two, a red feather flies back to us and beckons us forward, Endeavor leading the way. A few more floors up is where we find Hawks, but not in a good state.

There stood Nightmare, with Hawks near his feet, sweating slightly and shaking from the fear he was experiencing. He must have breathed in the gas....

I hear Y/N suck in a breath behind me. This was not going to end well.

-Y/N POV-

I gasp quietly as I see Hawks, my best friend, on the ground, shivering like a leaf in the wind, fear evident in his eyes. I want nothing more than to run to him, but I know that will only sign my death sentence. So instead, I glare at Nightmare before pulling two small throwing knives from my belt, one in each hand.

He watches me and chuckles to himself. "Thermo-Meter, you must be that underground hero that is working with Whisperer to take me down, no? It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance, but I'm afraid tonight will be your last."

I shiver at his words then twirl a knife in my hand. If I use my quirk, it could affect Hawks as well, he is too close to Nightmare. I feel my breathing quicken and my heart begin to race, so I try to take some deep breaths. Hitoshi shifts next to me, almost standing in front of me protectively. Endeavor clenches and unclenches his fist several times, knowing using his quirk will only endanger Hawks as well. Oh, how I want nothing more than to cook Nightmare alive.

Suddenly, there are footsteps behind us and I whip around, eyes widening at the villains that were climbing the stairs behind us. We are in some deep shit here.

-Third Person POV-

Very quickly the trio is surrounded, and Y/N immediately starts to use her quirk, switching between hot and cold to freeze or nearly melt some villains. Shinso begins speaking to them- well, more like yelling at them- trying to get them to respond. Some do and when they do, he immediately orders them to start hurting their allies. Endeavor begins making his way towards Nightmare and Hawks, intent on defeating the villain.

However, as soon as he starts to get close, Hawks looks up and in his fear filled, nightmare-ish state, he sees his buddy as a threat and stands to attack him. Y/N is quickly becoming stiffer and more weak but is trying very hard to not let it show. She begins to climb the stairs to get some distance between her and the continuing flood of villains.

Mirko arrives on the scene and immediately start calling every pro she can get ahold of and once she is sure they are on the way, bounds up the stairs, taking out villains left and right. She eventually makes it to where Y/N is and immediately sees how tired and weak she is. Relief floods her face and grasps Mirko's hand tightly in a firm handshake. "You made it."

The Rabbit hero laughs and nods. "You think I'd miss out on this action? Absolutely not!" She then turns back to the villains as they begin to ascend the stairs after the females, taking down as many as she can as they continue to retreat up the stairs. Y/N uses her quirk to slow them down long enough for Mirko to attack but eventually stumbles as they reach the roof.

Villains begin to flood onto the roof and far below, red and blue lights can be seen from the cop cars and ambulances that are waiting to help whenever they can. Mirko continues to knock out villains as quickly as they make it up the stairs.

The flood starts to slow as Mirko begins to tire, breathing heavily as they come up. One villain is able to get past her using her quirk and attacks Y/N, who now has to rely on her combat skills. The villain chuckles to herself at how weak the hero looks in her worn out state, thinking it will be an easy fight.

The villains quirk is weaponization, meaning she can turn her hands into any weapon she wants, so long as she knows the description and function of said weapon. Y/N's eyes widen as her hands both turn into two longswords and the hero pulls two knives off her belt. She knows this won't do much to help her, but she knows that she isn't going to be getting any help from Mirko, as she is still trying to keep villains from entering onto the roof.

"So, hero, any last words?" the small villain in front of her asks. But the Pro Hero just chuckles as she speaks. "That is such an overused and stupid line, do you know how often I get asked that before I kick some villain ass?"

The villain growls loudly at her words, then charges with a battle cry, leaving Y/N almost no time to dodge the attack. She feels the edge of one of the swords graze her side, leaving a small but deep gash. She hisses in pain before taking a chance and lunging at her opponent.

That's when she knows she had taken the wrong chance.

-Y/N POV-

I feel one of the blades as it pierces my stomach but I don't really process it as I stab the villain through the eye, killing her instantly. My mind barely registers that no more villains are coming onto the roof and Hitoshi has mad it up here. I hear a feminine sounding scream as I look up from the villain and see Mirko in shock with a hand over her mouth. Hitoshi stands next to her as he takes in the sight before him.

A villain with a weaponization quirk, hands formed into longswords, and one of them piercing my stomach as my knife sticks out of her face.

Everything starts to move in slow motion as I feel the sword become brittle and break off from the villain's hand, making me loose the only thing that is holding me up.

I feel myself being caught before I hit the ground, and I see Hitoshi's face above mine. The blood rushing through my ears quiets a little and I can hear what he's saying.

"H-hey, Y/N, stay with me. We're gonna get you help, just stay awake." I can't help but smile at his beautiful features, ignoring the tears pooling in his eyes, making the purple more vibrant against the bloodshot whites of his eyes.

"N/N, please stay awake, remember we have our wedding coming up. You even have your dress and everything, and we have our cake picked out and we have the beautiful location set. We can go there once you're better and we can see the beautiful setting you so carefully picked out."

I just shake my head. "No, Toshi, we can't..." I whisper. "We both know what this means for me...."

"No, Y/N, don't talk like that! You will heal and you will get better and we will get married! Please, N/N, I can't lose you..." His voice quiets to a whisper as Endeavor and Hawks make it up the stairs, rescue teams not far behind them.

I chuckle and then almost immediately start coughing, blood beginning to dribble down my chin. His eyes widen he holds onto you tighter. "Just stay awake, Y/N, because if you fall asleep, you might never wake up and I won't get to make you my wife. So just stay awake, we will get married and have an amazing life together."

I just very weakly pull him into a soft kiss. "Maybe in another lifetime, Toshi..."

-Shinsou POV-

I feel her go still in my arms and hers fall next to her, her eyes still trained on my face, but now, no life shines in them. There's no laughter in her face, no twitch in her nose as she thinks of something funny or cute to say. Her face is slack void of any emotion, any feeling, any life.

My beautiful Y/N, gone, taken from me forever.

I will never get to see her walk down the aisle in her stunning white dress, drawing all the attention to her beauty.

I will never get to stand at the altar with her.

I will never get to vow my life to her, and her to mine.

I will never get to say I do to her.

I will never get to kiss her and make her mine forevermore.

I will never get to call her my wife.

I feel my chest heave with silent sobs as I feel her pulled away from me. My arms hug my midsection as she covered in a sheet, hiding her from my view. I hear Mirko and Hawks cries as they watch them take her away, take her back down to the street. Endeavor walks over to me and places a hand on my shoulder, trying to console me. That's when I black out.

~Timeskip 1 year~

I don't remember much from that night, but the news the following day was a complete coverage of our takedown of Nightmare. Praise for Endeavor, Hawks, Mirko, myself, and of course, Y/N. No one immediately knew of her death, so it wasn't until I was interviewed about the battle that it was found out. I had broken down, unable to speak about her without my chest tightening with the pain of her memory. The camera's were cut immediately until I could calm down. Lucky for editing, because once I was calmed down, they asked me again and this time, I was able to answer.

"Now tell me about that night. Do you know were Thermo-Meter went? It is said that no one has been able to contact her for a couple of days. Do you know anything about that?" The interviewer asked.

I took a deep breath before I spoke. "Thermo-Meter, or better known to me as Y/N, was killed that night."

"Were you two close in any way? Or were you only work acquaintances?"

"We were engaged to be married in the fall."

The interviewer went silent for a moment before simply saying, "I'm so sorry for your loss," before moving on to talk to Mirko about the battle.

I shake my head at the memory, walking down the sidewalk. It's been a whole year and I still haven't been able to move on from Y/N. I know she would be upset with me for holding on to her for so long, but I just couldn't let her go.

I stop in a small flower shop that I go to every other week, getting the same arrangement I always do. The owner smiles and shakes his head when I go to give him money for the flowers. "You're such a loyal customer, it's on me this week." I frown but thank him profusely before I leave the shop.

I continue walking, finally arriving at my destination after about a 30 minute walk. When I arrive, I see Hawks, or Keigo, as I've come to know him as. He and I began to get close after Y/N had passed, as we were the ones who knew her best. He smiles at me and waves.

I walk over to where he is standing and look down. There's her smiling face, in stone with her birthday and deathday engraved under it. The stone read, "Amazing hero, loved by all."

Her parents had chosen it, asking what I would like on it. All I wanted was her picture that I could see every time I visited her. I sit next to Keigo as I lay the flowers in front of the stone. He looks at me and smiles, wrapping an arm around my shoulders. We sit there for only a moment before he stands to leave me alone.

"I'll see you in another lifetime, butterfly...."
