I Strictly Want Mina Angst, No Ships All Relationships Platonic

I strictly want mina angst, no ships all relationships platonic

I want a thing where Mina is struggling with insecurity about being good enough and overworks herself. If you're up for a smidge of Hurt/Comfort, bakusquad takes care of her in the end.

Thank you for submitting!! I call this

Safety Net

1.2 k words

Trigger warning: Insercites( being left behind and not being enough) Skipping meals, overworking, slight talk of anxiety and panic ( separation anxiety disorder)

Let me know if I missed a trigger or if you spot any spelling mistakes.

Feedback is encouraged!!

This is my first time writing something like this so I hope you like it.

Everyone is insecure, it’s part of being human. And even though she may consider herself to be alien-like, Mina is a human with insecurities. Ironically a large part of her insecurities come from having insecurities. She is self-confident in her looks, her talents, her studies, even if she’s not at the top she knows that she works hard and she’s proud of what she can accomplish. Her insecurities come from her memorability, as much as she hopes, not everyone is remembered by everyone they meet, but she wishes she was. It sounds selfish when putting it simply like that which is why she never shared her thoughts with others.

Separation anxiety disorder is what the doctors would call it. She was diagnosed with it when she was below the age of five. She no longer takes it as seriously because there’s a belief that only children have separation anxiety with their parents. She doesn’t want to accept the fact that even as a teenager, she still experiences the anxiety of being left behind and forgotten with someone she built a connection with.

She doesn’t realize that the tight feeling in her chest, refusing to let the air out of her lungs, is the anxiety of being separated. Every time her friends leave to go to their side of the dorm building, it returns, along with the thoughts that encourage her insecurities.

“They’re not going to sleep, there going to hang out without you”

“Here that laugh as they walk away, away from you, that’s the happiness of not being with you”

“They’ll never return to you by choice.”

As much as she wants to shove the thoughts out and label them as stupid, she can’t lie to herself, as she did before. She had similar thoughts before, about her middle school friends, she protected them, laughed with them, disclosed plans. Then she got into a and the messages faded. SHe always wished them a happy birthday, but when hers came around, the only people wishing her a happy birthday were her new friend. And she loves her new friends but there’s a rotten feeling in her chest when she lays in bed scrolling through Snapchat stories of all her old friend at the same school, same party, all with the same smiles that scream at her

“We are happier without you”

She can’t argue when the evidence is on their faces in billion of posted videos and photos on Instagram of them having more fun than she can remember when she was with them.

She can’t lie to herself about how long her friends will be around. She’s not good enough to be by their side for long. Bakugou might leave her behind when he rises to the hero rank, too busy for a pink idiot like her. Kirishima to kind to ever start up leave her, but he’ll slowly leave her behind for more friends. Sero goes with the flow, the flow that moves toward others leaving her behind. Denki makes so many friends that she’s sure shell gets lost in the crowd. Shinso doesn’t even seem to want to be close with her now. ANd Jiro who has already started to break off from the group and join the band group more. Those are the preferable endings because as aspiring heroes there’s almost a guarantee of losing her friends in a more permanent way. She’s just trying to build herself a safety net of other friends so that when the enviably leave shell be safe.

The other way she can prevent them from leaving her side is to become better so that she does deserve to be by their side. She began to train longer, and harder, more often, she trains longer than she sleeps, train harder than her body can keep up. Skipping breakfast, to train, skipping lunch to train, skipping dinner, to train, skipping sleep to train, skipping study sessions to train. She doesn’t even last a week before her body starts to give up. Her acid being less potent, and less being produced. At the same time her body catches up to her bad decisions, so does her friend.

In the middle of the night, training in an area she found, to avoid being caught by security, she trains, till she hears a crunch of a twig. She whips around ready to defend herself. Bad decision, her body can’t keep up and in a dizzy state, she begins to fall. But is caught, looking up she sees bakugou. He lifts her back up and stays their keeping her up, he’s her safety net.

She looks at where the original sound came from, there stand her friend, Denki, Kiri, Shinsou, Sero, and Jiro. Kirishima carrying multiple packs of Gatorade, and Denki and Jiro carrying snacks, that seem to be protein-based. She corrects her earlier thought, bakugou isn’t her safety net, they all are.

“ Hey Mina, why you so blue, you’re supposed to be pink”

Denki joked, the worry not hidden by the dark as he hoped.

“It’s nothing just thinking and training”

Mina hoped that they were stupid and not realized that what she was doing was self-destructive

“About?” A short and simple question Shinso asked, and yet as much as she wanted she couldn’t answer.

“I can’t say”

“Why?”

Another short and simple question from Shinso

“Cause I don’t like the answer”

It wasn’t his quirk that drew that out of her, it was the trust she built with the members of the group that currently surrounded her

“Are they negative thoughts that are pushing you to work yourself to …”

Kirishima questions, but he couldn’t end the question but everyone knew where he was going. Mina to tired and ashamed to nod, but everyone could see that Kirishima was right.

“ well stop, we’re here to stop them and you so like… I don’t know, murder the thoughts in your brain instead of the tress.”

Mina could tell that bakugou was trying to be comforting, even if he was awkward about it. The squad could tell that the clearing they were in was made from Mina disintegrating trees, and they could all admit to them selfs that she was a force to be reckoned with.

“Yeah, I don’t know if violence is the answer, but we’re here for you, even if you not ready to share why you acted this way”

Jiro spoke up and the rest of the group approached Mina, kirishima offering her one of the Gatorade bottles. He knew what it’s like to work so hard, and he with the help of the group got together a list of items that are supposed to speed up the body’s process and replenish Mina’s health.

Bakugou watched as she sat down, make sure she doesn’t fall. He knew what it was like to be treated weak and though he knew her body was weak at the moment, he also wasn’t going to let her feel that way, cause he had a sneaking suspicion that she was working so hard for that reason. They spent the rest of the night they ate and shred laughs together, Mina knew that they were here for her now and that they weren’t just her friend because of her strength or future status as a hero, they were her friends because they enjoyed her company. Her insecurities didn’t magically disappear that night but they did start to get better over time.

Hi! I'd like to participate in the birthday event with a BNHA matchup!

My pronouns are he/it, I'm a polyam bisexual with a male lean, I kin Denki, I'm a minor so no 18+ charas please, I cosplay, draw and write, my favorite anime is BNHA, my love languages are touch and acts of service, cute things I want to do with a romantic partner are go stargazing, be disgustingly domestic and adopt a cat together and I don't really have preferences other than the age thing!

I'd love a first date and instead of using y/n I'd love it if you used Eli!

Thank you so much and happy birthday!

From MHA I match you with KiriBaku

I ship Denki with multiple people and because of the other information, I decided to match you with both Kirishima and Bakugo. One reason I matched you with these two is that I know that those two work well. Another reason I matched you with the two is I think your love languages would work with them, Bakugou would be a giver of acts of service and would love to receive physical affection from some on he feels comfortable with. And for Kirishima, I think he loves to give physical affection and receive words affirmation, but he also won’t shut down any other form of love

Date story

It was lunchtime and you were peaceful enjoying your food. What you didn’t know was that a few tables behind you two of your classmates were arguing … over you.

“Get out of my way shitty hair, I’m going to ask him out.”

Bakugou voice was as loud as normal, but you were still oblivious to what was happening.

“That doesn’t mean I can’t ask it out too”

Kirishima currently stood in front of bakugou blocking his path to you

“Do what you want, but don’t expect me to back down, it’s his choice, and it’ll pick me.”

Bakugou pushed past Kirishima, but he followed him.

Both boys arrived at your table at the same time and both rushed out a

“Will you go out on a date with me, Eli”

It was strangely synchronized.

The situation was shocking and with the way they approached you along with the synchronizing of their date proposal, you assumed they were both asking you out on one date. And you weren’t going to say no to Katsuki bakugou and Eijiro Kirishima.

“Yes”

Before they could question who you were saying yes to but the bell rang and everyone went to class

The two argued over who you were agreeing to, eventually concluding that they were going to both take you on a date together.

With the help of technologies, the three of you were able to decide on a date and location. A coffee shop on Saturday.

You arrived before the other two and ordered yourself a drink along with some food. It was later in the day, the sun was already starting to set already. Your dates were insistent that the date be later in the day, but they also didn’t tell you why.

You saw your two dates running toward your outside table. Both looking very nice, making you a little more nervous. They arrived at your table, pulling chairs up to it.

“Sorry we’re late we had a little problem getting out, security and everything!”

Kirishima was already apologizing. Bakugou seemed to be fuming about something already.

“Hey! You already ordered without us!”

Bakugo pointed at your drink while yelling. He then said more but a little quieter

“I was gonna do that for you two, pfft whatever. Eiji what you want?”

Bakugo seemed to move on from that pretty quick. Kirishima gives his order to bakugou. When Bakugo walks to the door you hear him mumbling

“It won’t let me order for him, I just wanted to be a nice day but it goes and orders for itself.”

It was kind of sweet of him to be grumpy about such a thing. You lifted your attention back to Kirishima, he was smiling but you still feeling a little awkward.

“ Is there a reason that we having a coffee date so late?’

His face lights up a little more

“It’s a surprise we have to wait for Katsuki and the drinks”

Minutes pass b=y and bakugou returns, but before he can sit down Kirishima has your hands and is pulling you away. Luckily you already had all your belongings on you. Bakugou was also yelling at Kirishima but he never stopped.

“ You could have waited a few minutes, shittyhair”

It didn’t take long but soon you were at an open field. You were about to sit down on a hill when both your dates took off their jackets quickly and offered you their jacket to use as a separator from the grass. You take both the jackets and lay them together to make room for the three of you.

You sit down and take the last few sips of your drink.

“See some times you can see the stars and the sunset, the stars are kind of hard to see but it’s cool anyway.”

Kirishima started to point out the stars in the sky

“It’s pretty Kirishima, thank you for showing me. Did you find this place?”

You looked to your right where Kirishima sat, wanting to see his facial reaction

“ Uhh no actually it was bakubro over there”

It seemed you had flustered him, but he was still able to move towards bakugou.

“Yeah I did, also stop calling us those names.”

Bakugou was yelling a little again, but you were distracted by the feeling of someone’s hand joining yours.

“What should I call you”

The man who was holding your hand jumped at the question

“Call me Eiji”

Then the man to your left answered and grabbed your hand, after realizing that Eiji was already holding your hand

“ Just call me Katsuki” The date ended as the three of you walked back to the school grounds holding hands, Eiji swinging yours and Katsuki rubbing his thumb over the back of your hand.

Thank you for submitting hope you enjoyed it!!

This is officially closed and done!!

I want to thank everyone who participated and hope you are as happy as I am with what I made!!

Also, I enjoyed seeing neopronoun users, I don't see a lot of them in my daily life, and using them in writing is fun and helpful for getting used to them. I hope the neopronoun users that submitted are happy with my work and that I used them correctly.

And if you are considering neopronouns or just a new set of pronouns I don't mind right out a few sentences helping you discover if you like a set of pronouns. Just send in the pronouns you'd like to use and something about yourself so that it seems more personal. I'll post a separate post about this with examples because as a trans person I like helping people figure themselves out.

🎉Birthday Event🎉

Now closed Sorry

Today is my birthday and for the next week ill be holding a birthday even.

Rules

The event is similar to a match up, so ill match you with a character from your desired fandom, but then ill write either a short story ir head canon’s about you and the matched characters date. 

For the match up i ask that when you request you send in these things…

Pronouns? Who you kin? Hobbies? Favorite anime? Top love language? things you want in a relationship? Cute things you want to do with a romantic partner? Gender Preferences and any other preferences ( like Pro-hero or Villain) and what Fandom you want match ups from.

These aren’t required but if you want to include them that’s cool. What kind of date ( first date, anniversary date, spontaneous date, or anything you can think of) Your name or nickname, it can make the fic more personal if i write a name instead of y/n.

You can request up to 3 match ups, but the more people you ask for the more likely you are to get headcanons instead of a short fic

Fandoms that this event will include

Mystic Messenger

AOT(only characters that are in season 1-3)

MHA

Haikyuu ( not well versed in minor characters, ive only watched up to season 2)

Ohshc 

For AOT ill most likely do a modern au for the short fic

Hiya, could I get a matchup for MHA? I’m a bisexual female. I’m a Gemini Sun, Sagittarius moon and Leo rising (yes! Its my bday). I’ve been told that on the outside I give off Disney princess vibes, but on the inside I’m pretty goofy with a dark sense of humour. I’m a foodie with a massive sweet tooth and a self-proclaimed chocolate expert. I love fashion and modelling, I like to make my own pieces because I have very specific visions of my outfits. I also love dancing (specifically ballet) and playing the piano. I don’t hate many things but I do consider mullets to be my worst enemy; strong contenders include beer, ignorance and spiders. My psych says I fear rejection and it leads to some toxic perfectionism. Physically, I’m about 170cm, with medium length, straight dark hair and curtain bangs. I’m pretty confident in my looks but I do get insecure about my freckles a lot. I hope that’s good enough and thank you so much in advance for helping me with my shifting script. Hope you had a happy birthday cutie!

For MHA I match you with Keigo Takami

If you give off princess vibes then you deserve to be treated like one, and hawks is just the man for that. He has the money to pay for the things you like and your hobbies. He also enjoys watching you do your hobbies like ballet and your piano playing. I think hawks like confident people who aren’t arrogant so that’s one of the reasons he was drawn to you

Date Story

You were woken up by a little shake, opening your eyes to see your winged boyfriend holding a bed tray with food on it. You sit up and he places the tray over your legs, the tray has some chocolate milk along with chocolate-covered strawberries, and the main part was a chocolate crepe. You loved chocolate and he knew that but maybe this was a little overboard.

“Happy birthday princess”

You rolled your eyes at the nickname. You begin to eat the food he made you.

“I was able to take the day off for your birthday, we can do what you want. Go out? Stay in? Cuddle”

By the end of his sentence he had moved from standing near the bed now laying by your side, basically humming with happiness, he missed begin able to be close to you.

“We can stay in, for now, might want you to go out for dinner.”

While you talked your boyfriend started to give you little kisses everywhere.

“What are you doing, birdbrain?”

“ kissing your freckles”

He talked through the many tiny kisses. You rolled your eye again but you let him do what he wanted while you tried to eat.

Keigo eventually falls asleep on your shoulder, a soft snore lured you into sleep.

Thank you for submitting, happy late birthday hope you enjoy it!!!

Hello! Could I please get a AOT and/or MHA male matchup?

Im 5’5”, I like swimming so I have an athletic - slender build, with a few tiny tattoos on my arms and some scars on my knees from general clumsiness. My hairs dark blonde and wavy down to my mid back! I have dark thick eye brows and kinda heavy lidded blue-grey eyes. I’m a little bit of an airhead, I loose and misplace everything and I can sometimes ramble on about random things I’m interested in! I’m pretty hardworking and curious, I try giving my best effort in everything from my classes to sports, though my disorganization can be a problem. Overall I’m pretty cheerful but I do get anxious from time to time. I’m the type of friend who loves going on random drips, trying new things, and starting creative projects! I’m known for being the friend whose a terrible planner but is the more free spirited in the group. I’m really passionate about mental health awareness and teaching. Though I’m pretty sociable, I also love having time alone to paint and watch movies and anime! My main love languages are words of affirmation cause I tend to talk down to myself and acts of service because I struggle to have my act together haha

Thank you! Hope you are well -

For AOT I match you with Jean Kirstein

For one I think Jean is used to being around clumsy people, because of Sasha and Connie. I also think you would fit in well with his friend group which is important to him. I also think he would be a tease about your clumsiness but in the end, he can’t stop himself from falling for you and helping you out

Date headcanon

Modern AU

You to meet at a gym of sorts

Whenever you went swimming he was also there

Events you taught him a few things cause he wasn’t used to swimming as exercise

Eventually, he asked you on a date and you agreed

Your first date was at a food truck, where you meet his friend Sasha who works at the food truck

You had a great time so when he asked you on another you agreed, the cycle repeating until the two of you became official

The two of you still workout together

The two of you like to go on trips, sometimes with friends

He likes to be by you when you do your art projects, helping you if you ask

He often gets you breakfast and a drink in the morning,

Sometimes he’ll arrive at 1 pm with breakfast food, he gets busy but he still brings you breakfast

For MHA I match you with Shoto Todoroki

Shoto is a calm person and I think he would match with your love languages specifically acts of services, I think Shoto is an act of service guy and doesn’t even realize it. I also think he would try and save you from your clumsiness with his quirk

Date headcanon

He likes to carry things for you, no matter how big or how small, or how far you have to carry it

If he ever catches you drop something he tries to catch it with his ice

If you’re about to fall stairs he tries to make an ice slide

You once took him swimming and he had fun messing with the water and his quirk

He enjoys it when you talk and ramble, which mean he doesn’t have to stress about talking

He also likes to learn about the art and crafts you work on

He often asks you to teach him how to do what you do

Then the two of you can arts and crafts dates.

Thank you for submitting, hope you enjoy it!!!

My birthday event is closed, sorry.
