Summary
[prompt one; bound]
“This is the Number 2 hero?” A voice asked scathingly. It didn’t sound familiar, but that didn’t matter. Hawks didn’t react past trying to see the voice’s origin, head bobbing around lazily. He heard a scoff and barely had a second to prepare himself for the fingers that twisted themselves into his hair and yanked his head back, exposing his neck.
His wings fluttered in a primal way, one that he wasn’t used to showing in the face of vulnerability. The person’s head moved so they were hissing in Hawks’ ear, the air from their mouth humid and uncomfortable. In his haze, he tried to twist away, only to be greeted with fingernails nearly sharp as his talons jabbing into his shoulder to keep him focused.
“-Pitiful excuse of a hero, where were you when people needed your help? When he needed your help, I saw you, I saw you in his prefecture when he was there, you ignored him, you left him, it was your fault that he died, you could have done something, you should have-”

Summary
[prompt two; gagged]
He stumbled off the street and into a small alleyway, wedged neatly between a townhouse and a small family-owned cafe that was darkened and empty. Hitoshi pressed his back to the wall as he leaned back, automatically slipping down and sitting in a pile of dust next to a collection of trash cans. He picked at the duct tape that was pressed to his cheek, wincing as he peeled it back slowly.
It stung and for some reason, after the night he had, it was this that had brought him to tears. He sniffled a bit, wiping at his eyes before he heard footsteps near him that he hadn’t heard before. His eyes widened and every stranger danger infographic and school presentation flashed in his mind as he flinched back into the trash cans as someone crouched down next to him, a small light illuminating their face.
Hitoshi stared wide-eyed into the face of a man with a heavily scarred face, staples holding what looked like burnt skin together.

Summary
[prompt three; "who did this to you?"]
“Are you hurt, Todoroki?” His teacher questioned, voice gentler than anything he had heard at UA. Shouto almost despised the quiet pity if he didn’t need it so fucking badly.
“I’m fine,” He snapped automatically, almost immediately following it up again. “I’m- I didn’t mean that I’m- I apologize.”
“That’s okay. Can you tell me where you’re hurt?” Aizawa-sensei prodded. Shouto heard the low din of traffic in the background and relaxed minutely, though it was barely a hair.
“I think my left arm is broken,” He admitted. “And my right hand is burnt. And- ribs. Hurt. My head, too, I think my face was cut. My legs are- They’re just sore, never mind, it’s nothing,” The reality of what Shouto was doing came back to him as he described the damage, could feel each injury and how it happened. He couldn’t do this, he couldn’t- “I don’t- This was a bad idea, I can’t- Can I hang up? You can go back, I’m sorry, you can go back to sleep.”

Summary
[prompt four; taken hostage, "do you trust me?"]
He didn’t notice that anything different at all, at first. All he heard was the door slam open, which was pretty characteristic of the people who had decided he was their new favourite plaything. They had switched off the lights and the loud noises a while ago, so Dabi had been left to float through space as he tried not to think too much.
“-Dabi? DABI!” The man barely flinched at the shout, vaguely recognizing the voice as Twice’s. Instead, he heard a clamour of movement in front of him and leaned away from it, his head lolling as his head was unsupported by the chair he was chained to.
“Are you okay? Eat shit! What- Okay, give me a second buddy, we’ll get these off. Fuck you, we’re leaving you behind!” Dabi flinched at the last sentence without meaning to, and Twice noticed with the way he went silent after.

Summary
[prompt five; betrayal, misunderstanding]
“There’s confidential information that was given to your teacher that the League shouldn’t have had access to that lead them to the training camp and the timing of when the students would be going to USJ,” The detective continued, as though he hadn’t said anything at all.
“We know you didn’t want anyone to get hurt, Kaminari,” Aizawa-sensei cut in, looking at the detective as though he had slighted him before turning back to the teen. Kaminari didn’t want the teacher’s eyes on him. “We can help if there’s trouble, but you have to cooperate a little.”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about,” He repeated, looking away and twisting his hands into his sleeves harder. The fabric strained against his grip.
