Summary
He is tired.
Gorgug has maybe never been more exhausted in his life. He is tired. Very, very tired.
Riz is driving which is honestly a little scary to think about and Gorgug’s in the back. But he can’t drive because his hands are shaking and his body’s rocking. Forward back, forward back. Rocking, rocking, rock. His headphones are over his ears too, clamped down with noise canceling turned on but nothing playing. He’s spent months without silence and months with yelling and all he needs now that this is all over is some quiet but he can’t quite get that. He needs it to be quiet so so bad, but it can’t be.
Or: Expanding on the line “I’m not listening to anything. I'm just exhausted," from ep2 of Junior Year.

Summary
Adaine Abernant has spent her entire life falling. Falling behind her sister, falling out of the ranks of her family, and of course, quite literally falling.

Her parents don't love a disabled child, one that always falls and fails.
Or: Adaine falls down and learns to accept help back up.

Summary
Even though the AAC programs aren't actually the schools, it's still the schools account which has different profiles of which one belongs to Riz and they must be doing some sort of update or review because Riz wakes up that morning, grabs his AAC, and sees a grayed out application. He huffs his frustration and shoves his iPad in his backpack instead of hanging it over his neck and shoulder to sit at his side like usual. The lack of weight makes him uncomfortable and he whines and bites his lips. His hands flap anxiously and he finds him tapping roughly at his collar bone in a way that's painful.
Or: Riz's AAC is down for that day.

Summary
Bakugou Katsuki never thought he’d see Midoriya Izuku again. Which was fine by him. Deku had moved away in elementary school and Katsuki quickly moved on, his own high school years turning tumultuous as he adjusted suddenly to becoming disabled and an ambulatory wheelchair user. Now, as an adult, Katsuki only reflects on Deku occasionally- mostly with regret with how he treated him growing up. But that’s all Deku is- a face from his past, and so is the kid Katsuki used to be. He never expected to be confronted with Deku again.
But all of a sudden green hair shows back up in his life and Katsuki realizes he has a lot more of his past to unpack then he thought he did.

Summary
It starts with moving into the dorms, as most things on Shouta’s growing list of headaches do. Turns out it’s a bit of a security risk to leave young teenagers with complete access to prescription medications, so Shouta has to meet with each of his students to go over their medications and safety precautions. Todoroki is his last meeting, and there’s just one prescription they have to go over- testosterone. It’s not a prescription he expected to see from his student.
Apparently it’s also not a prescription Todoroki expected to see, because he has no idea that he’s been taking it for the last three years.

Or: Todoroki finds out he's intersex. Then she finds out she's trans.

Summary
Aizawa Shouta does not like age regressing. This isn't to say that he doesn't appreciate it, or that he doesn't recognize the importance of it. He knows it's a coping mechanism and he understands why he does it. Even though he doesn't particularly like it, he'd like to believe he's at peace with it. Plus, having a supportive husband certainly helps and for how non-traditional their approach to age regression is, Shouta's happy it works for them.

5+1: Five times Aizawa age regresses at inopportune moments, and one time the timing is perfect.

Summary
"Can I hold you?" Hizashi asks.
Shouta nods, and strong arms wrap around him, firm enough to feel the pressure but nowhere enough to feel confining or restricting. Shouta hums deep in his throat and Hizashi gives him a soft kiss on the forehead.
This is a routine for them, one carved out slowly after many years of trust. It was a slow build, not something formed or made overnight. Shouta falls back onto it easily, with confidence in full faith. He puts his trust in Hizashi to catch him, and Hizashi does so with practiced grace.
Shouta has been touched all his life, but in the arms of Hizashi he thinks this is the safest he has ever felt.

5 + 1: Five times people reach out to touch Aizawa Shouta, and two times he reaches out to touch others.
