Convention



((The Day of The Family Convention- Hawks Point of View))


So Shoto had a brilliant idea to piss of Endeavor. We splattered ourselves with rainbow paint (Like demonstrated by Midoriya-) and then waited until it dried to put on our homemade t-shirts. They said our name and our mood.


Shoto- "I don't want to be here but my boyfriend came."


Fuyumi- "These guys are idiots. I love them anyway."


Natsuo- "I came for the joy of embarrassing my father"


Dabi- "I may be an ex-villain that seems cool but I have a fiery temper."


Hawks- "I'm just the friend here. I'd rather be at KFC."


And on the back it says "The dysfunctional kick ass gay family (And Hawks)". 


It's genius right? We decided to wear jeans and wrap a hoodie around our waist. Dabi was driving as we went to pick up their mom. There was a lot of excited chatter.


"Mum's gonna be so proud of us" Natsuo laughed. 


"Yeah! This is going to be fun" Shoto grinned and let out an evil-sounding cackle.


"No. That's not how you do it." Dabi shook his finger at Shoto.


"Keep your eyes on the road!" Fuyumi scolded him. He turned back.


"Well let's hear your evil laugh!" Shoto crossed his arms.


Dabi cleared his throat dramatically and let out the evilest sounding quiet chuckle I've ever heard. I literally got goosebumps from it. Shoto shuddered and Natsuo copied him. 


"Told you. A good evil laugh should be enough to give dead people goosebumps. Even if they've heard it before it'll always send a chill down their spine." He explained.


Shoto tried again and I started trying. By the time we arrived at the hospital, Shoto had the laugh down and Natsuo was very close. Fuyumi had already had it down. My evil laugh was categorized as cute not evil because 'I'm too heroic for a villain laugh'.


As we looked out the window. I saw their mom.


"SHE HAS THE T-SHIRT AND PAINT!" Natsuo bounced on the edge of his seat. Her mom had the paint splatter and her own custom t-shirt.


Mrs. Todoroki- "My children are the best, change my mind"


((Shoto's Point of View))


Mom got the text I sent her. We barreled out the car and buried her in hugs. She laughed and hugged us.


"I got the text! Ready to shame Endeavor?"


"HELL YEAH!" Natsuo jumped with excitement. Mom laughed again


"Always energetic Natsuo. I also heard Touya's back! Where is he?"


Dabi stepped in front of Mom. He looked regretful and happy to see his mom.


"Why'd you run Touya?"


"Endeavor is a monster...And I'm literally the child who got his looks. After I heard what you said with Shoto before the incident, I thought my face would only bring you pain. So I fled. After I was gone, there was no turning back. I'm sorry Mom.."


I could see the regret in his eyes and with every word he said it got heavier. He bowed his head. Mom cupped his face in her hands.


"Don't be sorry Touya. I should've gotten to know the person you actually are before I judged you. I'm just glad you're back!"


She wrapped her arms around him. Touya was dumbstruck for a moment before hugging her back. Natsuo and Fuyumi 'aww'ed and I pulled out my phone to snap a picture. As I put my phone back, Mom turned her attention to me. She looked truly sorry as she ran her hand along the burn. I smiled at her.


"I'm so sorry Shoto. I should've never done that."


"It's a good look on me. It's like I have a split personality. Don't worry about it!"


She smiled through watery eyes and flung her arms around me. She's very warm. I hugged her for a moment before she moved on to Natsuo


"You've been good right?"


"Yeah!"


"Did you try to cook eggs on your brothers again?"


"...I haven't been good" He was grinning sheepishly. Mom laughed and hugged him. Finally, Fuyumi.


"I expect you've been trying to lead these boys on the right paths but they don't listen. Am I right?"


"Correct! They don't listen at all"


"Luckily, you do. My angel" She hugged Fuyumi too. Natsuo made a small offended sound and muttered


"I DO listen...sometimes"


That just made us all laugh. Hawks beeped the horn from the backseat.


"HI MRS. TODOROKI!! EVERYONE, WE'RE GONNA BE LATE! YOU DON'T WANT TO PASS UP THIS CHANCE!" He was yelling out the window. We all rushed to the car. This time Hawks ended up behind the wheel.


"I'm warning you, I drive fast as well as flying fast!" 


"GO GO GO!" Dabi and Natsuo cheered.


"Alright! It's your funeral" He stepped on the gas and the car went shooting down the road. My stomach lurched as Hawks went so fast we didn't hit any red lights but almost hit a tree. I don't wanna die. He's gonna kill us all!


"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA" Fuyumi and Natsuo were screeching


"HAWKS WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU! WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE" Dabi was yelling and holding on to the seat.


"I TOLD YOU! NO TURNING BACK NOW!" Hawks yelled as we skirted down the road. In a matter of minutes we were there. Hawks spun the wheel and epicly parked into a tight spot. Dabi, Natsuo, and Fuyumi scrambled for the door and jumped out the car as if it was on fire before the car had fully stopped.


"Jesus Christ, I saw my life flash before my eyes 6 times Hawks. SIX TIMES!" Natsuo was having a seizure.


"That was the best car ride ever! We never get this much action at the hospital!" Mom jumped out the car happily. Hawks climbed out grinning. I stumbled out the car and wheezed.


"You kids aren't tough enough to handle Hawks. That was amazing!" Mom laughed and patted Dabi who was trying to get himself together.


"Thank you Mrs. Todoroki!" Hawks smirked proudly after seeing how he terrorized everyone except mom. I shot him a nasty glare and he stuck his tongue out.


After getting our stuff together we headed for the entrance. We were stopped in front of the entrance by a familiar voice.


"SHOTO-CHAN!" I turned as Midoriya ran up. He had a T-Shirt too. Except on the back it said "I'm the boyfriend of one of the Todoroki's!". He flung his arms around me. He had his notebook and a pencil in his hair. I hugged him and kissed him on the cheek. 


"Ooh~ My son got a boyfriend! And he's soo cute!" I turned and Mom, Natsuo, Fuyumi, and Dabi were taking pictures as well as the mass of reporters. I covered Natsou's camera and kissed Midoriya again. This time on the lips. He giggled and smiled after we broke apart.


Mom and Fuyumi were fan-girling while Dabi and Natsuo gave me thumbs-up and grinned.


"Alright lets go inside" I laughed and we headed inside. We were swarmed by reporters and flashing cameras but we stayed together. Soon we found our table. It had 8 of those microphones on the table and 8 chairs. Endeavor was sitting in one of them.


"Why are you dressed like that? Rei, you joined in on this? And who is that?"


"We wanted to piss you off! That's what the text said anyway. I assume it's working 'cause you're a real hothead according to my notes. You can clearly see Mrs. Todoroki did join us on this and Hi, I'm Izuku Midoriya, your son's boyfriend" Midoriya had a sarcastic tone that he barely ever uses. He probably remembers what I said about my father and pieced together more things. I smirked.


"I like this kid" Natsou declared before sitting down in the seat farthest away from Endeavor. We looked at each other and scrambled for seats. Hawks was the only one left standing and the one who had to sit in the seat next to Endeavor.


"Really? You're going to make me sit next to my old boss? Cruel" He whined and plunked into the seat.


"Thats what you get for nearly killing us six times on the drive" Nat scowled and he grinned sheepishly.


A teenage girl with casual clothing on walked up to the asking podium and waved to some people before sitting down.


"Hello Todoroki family and friends! I'm Alex Ruther! I came overseas to ask you some questions! I'm going to be you questionnaire for this convention and we're gonna have a blast! We're also gonna play a few games along the way okay? Okay! Let's get started!"


She picked a question out a bowl that people were putting question slips in.


"This one is for Touya Todoroki or as he's largely known as Dabi! Your question is: How did you get all those scars?"


"Do I have to answer that?"


"Yes please!"


"I burned myself"


"Anymore?"


"I answered truthfully. Stop digging"


I sighed as a bunch more people put questions into the bowl. This is gonna be a long day.


"This one is for Natsuo! Are you gay?"


"No but I'm a pride supporter!"


"Cool! I like your getup too!"


"Thanks!"


"This one is for Shoto...Uhm...It's kinda personal...do you mind?"


"Uh..no?"


"Are you a virgin?"


I felt my face heat up


"Of course I am! What kind of question is that?! I'm underage!"


Midoriya's face was red too.


"I said it was personal! Anyway for Enji Todoroki: Why are you so hotheaded?"


"I am not!"


Dabi and I both turned and glared at him. He re-thought his answer.


"I've always been like this."


"I can see the headline now! The Fiery Todoroki Brothers Have The Iciest Glares! Anyway, this question is for...Fuyumi! Can you tell us a story about your brothers?"


"Oh I sure can! Once, I was going to cook dinner but I saw Shoto and Touya laying on the counter and Natsuo was covering them in foil and cooking eggs on them! It's actually pretty efficient!"


She was way too happy to tell that story. Midoriya laughed and wrote something in his notebook.


"Wow! Buy one, get one free! Stove Todoroki's! Ha! Anyway this question is for Midoriya!"


"Hm?" He wasn't paying attention.


"Your question is: Are you going to become number one hero?"


"I'm going to be the best! No matter what it takes!"


"Aw! Such a cute cinnamon roll! You are the cutest thing ever!!" I shot her a dirty look.


"Stop mildly flirting with my boyfriend" She smiled. I don't like her.


"Boyfriend to the rescue! Anyway- stop giving me that look- this question is for Hawks! Before the Coma Incident why were you in a gay bar with Dabi?"


Gay Bar? What? Everyone but Dabi turned to him. He looked taken aback for a moment.


"We didn't know at first! We just went inside. Later, we found out we were in a gay bar but we'd already ordered drinks so we stayed."


"Are you sure?"


"What? Of course I'm sure! Ask him if you don't believe me." Hawks gestured to Dabi who was sitting beside him.


"I believe you! Now, the next question is for Rei! Are you proud of your kids? How they've turned out even beside the fact they took many different paths?"


"I'm proud of every single one of them! They beat the odds and became people I'll always be proud of!"


I felt a smile spread across my face. She's proud of us.


"I can see that IcyHot boy-o smiling! You mean a lot to your kids! Now this is for Dabi! Why do you get hurt when you use your quirk?"


"Well, I have a very powerful fire quirk. This would be fine but my body is built for a very powerful ice quirk not fire. So I have a weak resistance to my own flames."


That's why. Midoriya scribbled in his notebook more. 


"Ouch! This question is for Natsuo! Could you give us a story about...Shoto?"


I blinked. He grinned widely. Oh no


"So when Shoto was a baby, Touya and I were arguing over something and we had accidentally left an Endeavor toy next to him. When we looked over to the baby, he had put the toy in his bottle, closed the cap and covered the hole that he was supposed to drink out of. It was terrifying and funny at the same time."


I put my head down on the table. Midoriya put his hand on my head.


"That must've hurt for Papa Hothead. Being drowned in milk by his own son? Oh man! Anyway, this question is for Fuyumi! What's your quirk and why don't you use it?"


"My quirk is ice and I don't use it because I'm not a huge fan of fighting"


"A peaceful link in a family of warriors! Now for Enji! Are you proud of your family?"


"...No comment"


We all sighed.


"Sorry Papa Hothead! You can't do that!"


"He's not proud of us" I rolled my eyes.


"Not at all" Natsuo agreed


"Nope" Dabi shook his head


"Guys!" Fuyumi face-palmed


"What? It's true!" She glared at me and I glared back.


"Papa Hothead is r-e-j-e-c-t-e-d! Now, it's time to play a game! It's called Never Have I Ever! Let's do this family!"


A man passed out two boards to us that said "I have" and "I haven't". 


"Ready?"


"Is this going to be exposing?" I asked and looked up from the boards


"You bet! Lets play! First question! Never have I ever gotten drunk!"


I raised I have not and so did everyone but Hawks and Endeavor.


"Hawks?! What happened? I thought you were trying to quit!"


"I haven't gotten drunk! I just can drink heavily without getting too tipsy! So I guess it counts?"


Dabi snickered at Hawks response.


"Whats so funny?" Alex looked curious


"Heavily isn't the right word. There is no word for how much this chicken can drink and not even be tipsy. He once drunk a whole Thor-sized root beer and wasn't tipsy! Heavily is NOT the right word at all."


"Shut up. I was thirsty. I told you I'm a heavyweight!"


"You just watched him do this? Didn't even try to stop him?" Alex was snickering


"No, he drunk it too fast."


"Okay Hawks! Maybe I'll get you a drink after this! Moving on! Never have I ever done something so supremely stupid my family still holds it over me!"


I raised 'I have' and so did Midoriya. I was surprised to see Natsuo hold up 'I have'. I wasn't surprised to see Hawks hold up 'I have' at all.


"What did you do cinnamon boy?"


"Well once Kacchan told me to race him down a bunch of steps. I was training my quirk so I agreed. When Iida yelled go, I jumped out the window and scaled the wall from a 50 story building. I won the race and ended up fine so nothing really happened but I'm not allowed to race anyone, anywhere close to the stairs." Midoriya rubbed the back of his head and smiled.


"Looks like this cutie is also a daredevil! Niice! What about you Shoto?"


"I used to accidently freeze the whole house in my sleep and Touya wasn't there to thaw it so Fuyumi, Natsuo, and Endeavor would have to either wake me up and risk slipping and falling or try to sleep through it. They chose sleep but I never hear the end of it."


"Okay then! Hawks?"


"I'm a really bad driver. I have a license but I prefer the skies. When I'm moving I like to go fast so I also drive fast. Ask them. It's a habit to go fast but some people don't appreciate the fact I got us here faster than usual!"


"I saw my life flash before my eyes SIX TIMES! Hawks will never drive me again. I'd rather try to steal Shoto's soba. That's safer than letting you drive!"


"Hawks is a fast driver. Good to know! Now Natsuo, what did you do?"


"I make the mistake of stealing Shoto's soba. He had to be physically held back from ripping me apart and he refused to talk to me for a month even when I bought him more."


"You deserved it too. You better thank Fuyumi for having muscles."


He mouthed thanks to Fuyumi and she smiled. He totally deserved it. No one can touch my soba.


"Don't mess with the IcyHot! Next up! Never have I ever dressed in the opposite gender's clothes!"


Hawks blushed and held up I have. He was the only one. Everyone snickered.


"I didn't get the concept of opposite day when I was a kid. So I came to school wearing a pink shirt and jeans I bought from the girls aisle of whatever store it was. Nobody noticed but that's one thing I can't seem to forget."


"I thought it would be more serious than that! But okay! Next is: Never have I ever slipped on a banana peel!"


Endeavor was the only one who put up 'I have'. Everyone burst into laughter.


"W-What happened?"


"No comment." He was grumpier than usual


"Shoto wanted to test if a banana peel is really that slippery as it's shown in the cartoons. So he left one in front of Endeavor's door so when he walked out he slipped and dropped into a very painful looking split. I play the video every time I feel remotely sad. Makes my day!" Mom managed to explain it before laughing again. Endeavor's flames rose an inch higher.


"Ouch! Shoto you sneaky child! Alright it's time for the next activity because Papa Hothead is looking very murderous right now!"


I was laughing too hard at memory. Then the unexpected happened. Mina bounded up to the podium and swapped places with Alex. Alex waved before heading off the stage.


"Mina?" Midoriya was just as confused as me.


"Hey Shoto! Hey Midoriya! I decided I would crash your date with my cousin and have a competition!"


"I wasn't told about this-" Endeavor started but everyone else agreed.


A plate of steaming hot noodles was put in front of us.


"It's an eating competition! Whoever eats the most noodles in five minutes wins! Then you can go home!"


Everyone picked up their chopsticks.


"Ready? Set? GOO!"


I began eating the noodles as fast as I could. Soon a guy came with a refill for me, Midoriya, and Mom. Natsuo and Dabi weren't far behind. I focused on my plate and ate as fast as I could. The noodles were hot and steamy. We could hear the cheers of the crowd as we ate but we were used to it. Soon the five minutes were up.


"Put your chopsticks up! Time is up!"


I stopped eating and slurped up the last noodle I had in my mouth.


"That was the most magnificent eating of noodles I've ever seen. You guys are a very competitive family! But there is a tie! Mrs. Todoroki and Fuyumi win!"


Mom and Fuyumi high-fived each other and everyone else shook hands. The girls are the best.


"Everyone gets a prize though! Rei and Fuyumi get 20 dollars apiece! Shoto and Midoriya get 10 dollars apiece! Everyone else gets 5 dollars for their time! Thank you very much and have a nice day!"


((Dabi's Point of View))


That was actually fun. And I get 5 dollars. We headed to the prize table to pick up our money. We were swarmed by reporters.


"What did you think about the convention?"


"It was fun" I admitted.


"Would you do it again?"


"Yeah"


"Are you gay?"


"Yes- wait what does that have to do with anything?"


The reporters laughed at how they easily tricked me into telling them I'm gay. Fuck you all. I dodged reporters and stumbled outside to the car. 


"Bye Shoto! Bye Todoroki family!" Midoriya shouted before running to the sidewalk. I guess he's walking home.


"Now what should we do?" Natsuo asked on the (peaceful) drive back.


"I vote we chillax for the rest of the day and watch movies" Hawks leaned back in his chair


"Sure! Whose house?" Fuyumi asked while making sure she didn't rage-slam the slow car in front of us.


"Ours" Mom nodded.


We relaxed for the rest of the day at the Todoroki residence, watching movies and playing video games (I was epicly beaten and smacked down from 1st place to last place)


"Hey- Do I smell smoke?"


((Cliffhanger))
