Reader's quirk: Lullaby - you can put people to sleep with your voice

~•~❤️~•~

Your POV:

"Hey, Jiro!" I called to my best friend "I was wondering if you wanted to train with me after school again today?"

"Sure." she agreed.

"Cool! I'll meet you outside after this lesson!"

At the end of class, I stood up and went to get changed into my hero costume.

Then I went to meet Jiro outside like we had said.

She was already waiting outside on the training field, wearing her simple, yet stylish hero suit.

"So, I was thinking, since we both have hearing related quirks, we could focus on..." I started to strategize.

She nodded along, agreeing to my plan. Even though we would be fighting each other in this exercise, we had to pretend like we were in a different environment and that would only work if we were both on the same page.

But while I was proposing different fighting styles we could try on each other, I got the strange feeling that I was being watched...

I shook it off and got into a fighting stance. On the opposite side of the field, across from me, Jiro did the same.

I prepared to activate my voice quirk, she extended her earphone jacks and the training match began.

Todoroki's POV:

Lately I noticed something interesting about
L/N's quirk.

I had a theory, but I needed a little bit more evidence to prove it was true.

So I did what any normal person would have done and followed her.

Hidden behind the corner, I watched her closely as her match with Jiro began, mentally taking notes about her quirk.

It was sound related and put people to sleep, which could only mean one thing...

(I think y'all know where this is going 💀...)

L/N was Midnight and Present Mic's secret love child.

It fit perfectly - a while back, Midnight and Present Mic got a little naughty, had a baby, gave her a fake last name and she grew up to have a perfect combination of their quirks.

(I'm dying while writing this💀💀💀)

Now that I was sure of it, I just needed to find the perfect time to confront L/N about it.

Surely principal Nedzu will want to know about this- two of his teachers having an illegitimate child.

But first I would ask L/N. In the unlikely event that I am mistaken, I would not want to have bothered the principal for no reason.

Maybe I should keep watching her- find out her relationship with the two teachers based off of her interactions with them and see if it is any different than that of a student and a teacher's.

Now for the hard part:

How do I approach L/N and question her about her dark secret without coming across as rude?

Your POV:

"That was great, Jiro!" I exclaimed at the end of our mock fight, wiping my forehead.

"Yeah!" she said, taking a sip of water "We should definitely do that again sometime soon."

We chatted as we got dressed back into our everyday clothes and left school.

We lived in the same direction, so we always got to walk home together.

Just then, I got the feeling that I was being observed again.

I looked around and behind me but saw no one.

"Something wrong?" asked Jiro.

"No, I just got a weird feeling." I muttered, shrugging it off again.

~•~❤️~•~

I twirled my pen between my fingers as Present Mic taught the English lesson.

I was zoned out, as always, finding it hard to focus on this boring subject.

I glanced sideways at my secret crush, Todoroki. I had always liked him- he was so strong and handsome it was hard not to.

To my surprise, he looked straight back at me. I jumped a little, not expecting to see him staring intently at me.

Once he realized he'd been caught, he quickly looked away.

I looked back at the board, shaking my head in confusion.

What had that been about?

Before long the bell rang and everyone stood up and started packing.

"Wait! L/N, stay back would 'ya? I gotta talk to you about something!" called Present Mic before I could make my hasty escape out the door.

Knowing it was about my nonexistent homework, I nodded sadly and stayed behind as the rest of my class filed out of the classroom.

Detective Todoroki's POV:

I studied L/N closely during English, the class where Present Mic (aka her father) was our teacher.

It didn't seem like she was behaving differently, except that she seemed more relaxed and calm.

Probably because she knew her father wouldn't give her bad grades, even if she didn't listen in class!

The pieces of the puzzle were slowly coming together...

My suspicions were all but confirmed when Present Mic said:

"Wait! L/N, stay back would 'ya? I gotta talk to you about something!"

My eyes widened.

Family matters? Something he didn't want the rest of the class to hear? What did he want to talk to her about?

My thoughts whirled around in my head. It all made sense!

I took my time leaving the classroom, hoping to catch a glimpse of what they were saying, but their conversation was completely drowned out by my loud classmates.

I would have stood outside the door to listen, but Midoriya dragged me along, forcing me to sit next to him during lunch.

Foolish Midoriya, ruining my important research. Even if I had been wrong about him and All Might, I was sure this time about L/N.

Later I would ask her about it and the truth would finally be revealed...

~•~❤️~•~

Your POV:

"Promise me that you'll do your homework next time, L/N. Not paying attention in class isn't coolio!" scolded Present Mic.

"Yes sir." I sighed, looking down.

"Great! Off you go!"

I left the classroom and went straight to the cafeteria, where most of my classmates were already eating lunch.

I grabbed a tray ladened with Lunch Rush's amazing food and sat down next to Jiro at the Bakusquad table.

I glanced over at Todoroki, who was sitting next to Midoriya and saw, with relief, that he wasn't staring at me again.

He was eating his soba, appearing to be deep in thought.

I wonder what he was thinking about...

~•~❤️~•~

I walked through the big UA arch and across the yard the next morning.

When I reached the bottom of the flight of steps to the front doors, I was surprised to see none other than Todoroki standing there, apparently waiting for me.

As I drew nearer, he watched me closely.

"Um, Todoroki...?" I asked.

"L/N, I have something very important to ask you." started Todoroki seriously.

My mind raced. Could this be it??? Was my crush about to ask me out??

"What is it?" I asked, waiting for his question with baited breath.

"Are you... Midnight and Present Mic's secret love child or something?"

My jaw dropped and my mind went completely blank.

"What?" I asked, unable to think of anything else to say.

"Are you Midnight's and-" he started again, but I interrupted him:

"No, I heard you, but... Why on earth would you think that!?" I questioned, still trying to process what was going on.

Honestly, this wasn't exactly the way I thought my morning would go.

"Well, your quirk is a perfect combination of their's and you always seem more relaxed in Present Mic's lesson because you know he won't give you any bad grades." he explained, as if it actually made any sense "Plus, Present Mic held you back after class to talk to you."

"Yeah, about homework!" you said exasperatedly "And I'm not 'more relaxed' I'm bored. I don't like English!"

I rubbed my temple as Todoroki furrowed his brows in confusion.

"So you're... not related to either of them?" he asked finally.

"No. I'm not." I sighed.

"Oh."

"And here I thought you were about to ask me out..." I muttered, pushing past him and through the front door.

What a waste of time. Present Mic and Midnight's secret love child!? Seriously!?

"Wait, L/N!" called Todoroki, following me through the doors.

"Wait?" I asked, annoyed.

"I want to make it up to you." he said monotonously "For assuming things without proof and wasting your time."

"How?" I wondered, crossing my arms.

"I would be open for a date." he offered.

"Wow, really!" I exclaimed, before regaining my composure "I mean, yes, I am open to that idea as well. What time?"

"Saturday morning?" he proposed.

"Sure." I said, giving him a small smile.

Well, that was the weirdest yet best morning of my life I thought, as I walked into the classroom.

I couldn't wait to tell Jiro.

A/n

That was fun. Hope you enjoyed some drama with Detective Todoroki and his secret love child theories.

Love you 😘😘😘
