《Forbidden Gardens| Tokoyami x Reader book》Chapter 3: Crushing
Advertisement
I woke up, a ray of light shone into my dark, dusty room. I groaned and rolled over to see a notification on my old and run down phone.

I, of course replied to Tokoyami first
I
blushed heavily, thinking about what had happened yesterday day as I texted Aoyama back.
I sighed and blushed heavily, seeing if Tokoyami messaged me back or not
Tokoyami's POV
I blushed as I responded to her message, hopefully she doesn't think I'm weird.
She replied back to me, with a simple 'You too! Bye!' I let out a sigh. My mind wandered to her. We held hands yesterday, I looked at my hand that she was holding. Her hands were so soft and- wait. She had scars on her hands, I mean they were still soft but the scars. I hope she just had a cat at home and it wasn't what I was thinking. Maybe I should talk to her about it today. The more I think about it the more I remember scars on her neck, her legs too. I gritted my teeth. She's too beautiful to hurt herself like this. I calmed myself down a little bit and went to put on my uniform.
(Y/N) POV
After I got my clothes on and brushed my teeth, I went downstairs and walked out the door, not wanting one of my parents to stop me and hurt me. I closed the door discreetly and continued my walk to school.
I stepped into the building and changed into my school shoes, grabbing my books from my locker and putting my bag up. My footsteps echoed through the hallways as I walked to class 1-A. Not many kids were here except for Iida, Shouji, who was also someone I talked to often, him being one of Tokoyamis best friends, and Yayourozu. I walked to Shouji and said hi before I walked to my desk, sitting down and getting my desk organized for the next class.

A few minutes later, Tokoyami walked in, he stopped to talk to Shouji, they talked for a while, he seemed to be blushing the whole time, as he walked away Shouji patted his back and he sat next to me. I stared at him smiling, he looked at me and I immediately looked away blushing "G-Good morning Tokoyami.. " I spoke softly, somehow he comprehended what I had said and gave me a warm grin, one that made me squeal internally. "Good morning (Y/N)" I smiled back at him, my face red.
Tokoyami's POV
God she looks adorable when she smiles like that, though I still notice the scars on her neck. I really needed to ask her, but I didn't want to cause her trauma right now. Time to put what Shouji told me to do in play..
When Tokoyami and Shouji talked..
"Aoyama told me about your crush on (Y/N)"
I twitched as my feathers puffed up, fuck that damn baguette man.
"Y-yeah.. But she probably doesn't like me, I mean I have a bird head."
Shouji chuckled and put his chin in his hands, leaning closer to me.
"I can tell you how to win her heart, that is, if you have enough confidence."
He whispered into my ear, my face lit up. I hoped that she wouldn't be uncomfortable with this.
The talk is over
I cleared my throat silently and leaned over to her, my beak was an orange-red color from my blushing.
I spoke softly into her ear, not to where it was uncomfortable but to where she, and only her could hear it.
"You look beautiful today"
She jumped up and covered her face in her hands, her cheeks were painted crimson along with her nose. Her eyes were snapped close. I cursed myself, she looked very uncomfortable.
"I'm sorry I jus-"
"No ones ever said that to me.." She said, her voice and octave below a whisper. "Thank you Tokoyami."

She revealed her face our from her hands and smiled brightly, although she was still blushing madly. The way she craned her neck and relaxed her shoulders, I could see scars on her neck and face. I tried to ignore it and smiled back at her.
Her eyes shone at me, but it was interrupted when Mr. Aizawa walked into the classroom.
"Good morning class, today Pro Hero Thirteen will be taking you back to the USJ, dummy civilians will be in trouble and it is your job to rescue them despite the disasters. You will be placed in areas where said Thirteen thinks your quirks will be the weakest to train to adapt to different environments, she should be here any moment, I'll talk to you all after class"
Mr. Aizawa proceeded to place down a yellow sleeping bag, zipping it up and quickly going to sleep. The whole class sighed and talked quietly amongst themselves.
(Y/N) POV
I put my hands up to my face to feel the intense heat, the compliment from him made me feel so weird inside. I'm so glad to have such a good friend like him, I really think I'm in love..
I looked at Tokoyami curiously, just to see him starring back at me, he turned away quickly, his feathers fluffed up.
I reached up to the top of his head and ran my fingers through his feathers. I heard him softly coo when I pulled away my hands from him, I blushed harder at his cute noise.
"Sorry I was just straightening your feathers"
He shook his head, his beak going a little red at the base "It's alright, and thank you" He grinned softly.
Thirteen walked into the classroom about 30 seconds later.
"Good day students, today we will be taking you to the USJ to practice using your quirks in different environments,and you will have more practice in becoming better rescuers. I will now announce the teams of each disaster zone."
I clenched my teeth, hoping that this wouldn't be too challenging.
"The Landslide zone- Koji Kouda, Kyouya Jirou, Yuuga Aoyama, and Katsuki Bakugou.
The Conflagration zone- Asui Tsuyu, Minoru Mineta, Rikito Satou and Ejirou Kirishima.
The Shipwreck zone- Mashirao Ojiro, Ochako Uraraka, Tenya Iida and Denki Kaminari
The Ruins Zone- Fumikage Tokoyami, (Y/N) (L/N) and Momo Yayourozu.
The Flood zone- Mezou Shouji, Toru Hagakure and Mina Ashido.
And finally, The Downpour zone- Sero Hanta, Yuuga Aoyama and Shoot Todoroki."
She finished her sentence and proceeded to guide us out the classroom to our buses. I was shaking with excitement, I was going to get to do this with Tokoyami! I let out a giggle and he panned his head to look at me.
"What was that about?"
I smiled at him widely "Oh nothing, I'm just so excited that we get to be together"
His feathered fluffed as he replied, his beak forming into a smile "Yes, I must admit ik quite excited to be able to protect yo- I mean, to be able to witness your quirk in action"
I grabbed onto his wrist and led him towards the bus, finding a seat in the middle. I sat next to the window and he sat down next to me. The buss was quite small for our class so he and I were pressed together, our shoulders touching one another.
He felt so warm, it was amazing, my parents never paid much mind to me, so his touch being so comforting, it was new to me. I was so distracted that I didn't realize his hand next to mine, intertwining our fingers slowly.
I jumped as I felt him hold my hand, accidentally pulling mine away a little bit. He pulled his away
"Sorry I just-"
I interrupted him "No, I like it"
He smiled and held onto my hand again, rubbing his thumb against the front of my hand.

MeiQ: Lore of the Labyrinth
Omaros City lays near one of several Yggdrasil trees that are scattered around the world. Each tree holds an entire labyrinthine ecosystem within or beneath it, yet the mysteries of their origins and what lays in their depths are only ever unraveled by the most skilled and courageous of explorers. Exploration of Omaros' Yggdrasil labyrinth is still in its fledgling stages, drawing in many with the allure of fame and glory that has yet to be claimed. Enter the harbinger Dubhan—cheerful, determined, and not terribly skilled at thinking ahead—and warlock Allouet— intelligent and resourceful, but desperately in over his head. Together, the two of them have half an idea of what they're doing at best, but that's not going to stop them from aiming for the labyrinth's unknown depths. MeiQ is, at its core, a fanfiction inspired by the Etrian Odyssey franchise, alternatively known as Sekaiju no Meikyuu in Japan. Despite that, it is written with the intent to be enjoyable by those unfamiliar with the series as well. The characters and the city of Omaros are original, while the story draws upon lore and recurring concepts from the game series. However, Etrian Odyssey is known for its lore being sparse and open to speculation, so much of the details provided in this story are exactly that—a fan’s speculation and personal expansion of the lore. This story was also inspired by and written as part of HereBeTreasure's Fast Food Frontpage Competition, enjoy some simple dungeon exploration plot and whatever else pops up from this.
