COMPILATION OF YUME MEMES CAUSE I LOVE HIM
[The heartbeat rate meme, with 'Answeing questions', 'With Editor-kun' and 'Hearing Editor-kun's voice]
[Every time Yume smiles, I do one push-up]

#yume #memes #yumadememad #lmao this boy doesnt know he has memes #i love him so much??

"I'm going to sue him for defamation."

Shouta froze, which is something he rarely does. Sounds of confusion rose in the meeting room. Ryukyu silenced the room, raising her palm. "First of all, this Yume is obviously a teen, not only does he look and act and sound like one, he knows the Sludge Villain victim. Are you seriously considering to sue a child?"

"Yeah, isn't this a bit too much, Deatharms?" Surprisingly, Mount Lady said. Although, Shouta could see why we was more hesitant, she just debuted 2 days ago, and got her carrier tarnished forever the very same day. "I get that you're mad, but when I thought about it, I really wasn't doing my job and being a new hero isn't an-"

"Are you seriously agreeing with him? That child ruined your debut-!"

"Exactly, he's a child!" Hizashi spoke up, crossing his arms in front of his chest, "With all due respect, this definitely isn't the proper way to go. Not only will this probably cause stress on the kid, because yes, he is a kid, I can't imagine how horrible you would look to the public, suing a literal child who was just sharing his opinion."

God, this is why Shouta fell for the man.

"If I may-", Shouta spoke up, not really caring if he 'may not', "-this shit is dumb." Shouta heard Hizashi mumble a Shouta! but he ignored it. "Stop being a petty teenager, you're a fucking hero grown ass adult for goodness sake. Accept that you didn't do your job properly and move the fuck on."

Deatharms scowled, "Eraser, what are you doing here?"

"That isn't the topic, Deatharms. You aren't going to win this suit anyway."

The punching hero grunted. "I'm going with it anyway. If any of you want to join in you can. If you aren't I don't care for your opinions."

Shouta tsked, this is stupid. Who in their right mind would think this is the best move? He's had enough. Shouta stood up abruptly, ignoring the following conversation as he walked out of the room. He could hear Hizashi's heeled boots clack behind him.

"You ok, Shouta? I know you and that little listener talk sometimes. And he's close to Toshi, right?"

"Yeah..." Shouta mumbled, slowing his steps until Hizashi was beside him, "fuck, I don't know if Midoriya can pay for the court fees, Hitoshi mentioned that the boy had money troubles."

Hizashi intertwined his hand with Shouta's, placing a small kiss on his knuckles, "Aw, you've grown attached, huh?" he joked, "Don't sorry Shouta, we'll figure this out. How about we meet the listener? We can give him a heads up?"

God he loved his husband.

Izuku sighed, running his fingers through his curly abomination he calls hair. His money was sparse, if he deducts the price of the rent, he'd only have around 3000 yen for the month. He could always use the money left for him, but it was originally for school tuition. All the inheritance from mom wouldn't be able to get accessed by Izuku until he was 18, and the HeroTube Adsense helps, but since he's only gotten substantial view for literally 4 days, the load it helped carry was minimal.

Who knew living alone in an apartment very near central Musutafu is expensive?

Izuku was brought out of his almost crying fest by a ding coming from his phone. It was the special one he set for his personal email, he didn't want to accidentally miss it from ignoring Twitter notifications. It was off, usually it was only Eraserhead and some promotion emails from random mail lists he subscribes to. It was nothing, probably. Izuku doubted it was the hero, as he usually emails him on Wednesdays, more so just to check on him (Izuku didn't let his head wonder why the hero would do that, it obviously wasn't to make sure he didn't spill any secrets, since the hero hasn't mentioned Izuku's analysis of him since the first email).

Curious, and willing to do anything but focus on his money hardships, Izuku opened the email.

Kid, this is pretty urgent. I can't tell you much here, it's more of a face to face conversation. I know you live in Musutafu, meet me here [Location attached] at 2:00 today. Bring your guardian, tell me ahead of time if you really can't make it, but I hope you do for the sake of your HeroTube career.

Eraserhead.

If that wasn't concerning. What has Izuku done that warranted such an urgent email? Did someone find his honestly very suspicious google searches about heroes? Look, Izuku knows searching 'Is it possible to overheat someone with fire immunity' is suspicious, but he wasn't going to actually do anything. He doesn't even tell the public that!

Is it because he mentioned that he got some help from the Resume Charity? It wasn't like he scammed them, his house was genuinely destroyed (destroyed is sort of an understatement especially since he did it on purpose and-) and he is sure that the charity does a thorough check before giving the money.

Maybe he's overthinking this- oh who was he kidding he's obviously overthinking this.

It was still 10am, so Izuku decided to ignore his probably impending doom (by Eraserhead of money, whichever came first) and finished up his assignments for that day. By the time Izuku was done it was still only 1pm.

Sighing, Izuku decided to get ready early, maybe he can find a villain fight to analyze later on. Izuku changed into a short sleeved shirt with pajamas written on the front, not wanting to sweat since it was summer currently. After a short glance around his apartment, Izuku left the safe space, locking the door behind him.

Maybe he should've worn some sort of hat, because not a block away from his house someone stopped him, "Oh. Em. Gee! You're like- that Yume boy, right?" Izuku's eyes widened, freezing momentarily. The person who called him was a blond girl and looked around his age. "You are...right?" She tilted her head.

"U-uhm, y-yeah that's me. H-hi..." Izuku mumbled, fiddling with his fingers. "That's like- so cool. Can you take a pic with me? That would be amazing", she smiled, and of course Izuku has to agree, it's the first fan he's met face to face.

"Um, sure. I guess? If you can please don't tag the location, I don't want people to know where I am.." he trailed off, god he was not good at this. "Oh of course! Say cheese!!" She said out of the blue, only giving Izuku time to smile awkwardly. "Oh my god, you are so cute. Anyways, I have to go. Bye, Yume!" She walked away sending a flying kiss to Izuku.

That was... an experience..?

Izuku snapped out of his mini trance, Izuku wondered around the area, checking his phone for any news. The location Eraserhead sent was... a cat cafe-? Interesting, but not surprising from the amount of photos people got of him purely because he was distracted by those felines.

Peeking inside the cafe, Izuku spotted a boy in the back with black hair, another one with purple next to a blonde haired person, but no one who looked like Eraserhead. Izuku still had 40 minutes until the agreed time, so the green haired boy wandered around the nearby park. It was mainly empty (as expected for a Tuesday), so Izuku chose a bench to sit down on and enjoy the air.

Maybe a few minutes passed when Izuku felt someone sit down beside him. Odd, since there were other benches empty, but whatever. Until they spoke up. "You're that Yume dude, right?" Izuku froze. The way they said the question was off. Izuku turned his head, seeing a tall man with dirty brown hair. "Uh- y-yeah that's me-"

A sudden shove to his chest made Izuku fall off the bench, the man now leering above him. "Who the fuck do you think you are, huh? Some wannabe hero brat?" Izuku gulped, shaking his head rapidly. His chest hurt, and his breathing was unstable. "You think you're better than the heroes, huh? I'll fucking-"

Izuku heard a whipping sound, and suddenly the man was enveloped in some kind of white fabric. White fabric like... Izuku's eyes widened, following the fabric back to- Eraserhead!

"H-hey! Let me go! You shouldn't be saving this brat. Y-you're a hero, right? He mocked-" The capture weapon (so cool!!!) wrapped around the man's mouth, leaving his words muffled. "You really shouldn't be picking fights, kid."

"E-eraserhead! I wasn't- uh- I-" Izuku couldn't form words, he was there, in front of his, the actual Eraserhead! Like- in real life- clear- majestic- and Izuku snap out of your fanboy-ing.

"C'mon kid", Eraserhead (the Eraserhead) called, "the police will handle him. We'll be late, and he's already getting suspicious."

Izuku nodded, quickly getting off of the ground and following behind the hero. "Uh- who's 'he'?" All Eraserhead did was smirk.

Am I in danger?

Hitoshi grumbled, shoving a spoon of pavlova into his mouth. Dad was being suspicious, suddenly asking them to go to a cat cafe. Not that he was complaining, but from the awful mood they had when they came back from that meeting, maybe they just wanted to loosen up. Still didn't explain why they were glancing at him every once in a while, Pops was giggling like a teenager and Dad was checking his phone a lot.

Hitoshi sighed, looking out the front of the cafe to see when Dad was coming back from his 'bathroom break' (which is his way of saying 'I'm going to find some stray cats to feed them') when Hitoshi saw- Midoriya? Hitoshi blinked, rubbing his eyes and yes- it was Midoriya with his dad right behind him what is happening-

"My husband and son are here", Hitoshi could hear his dad say. "You have a husband and son-?!" Midoriya's eyes glowed with excitement. "Dad? Midoriya? What are you-" The green haired boy paused, tilting his head at Hitoshi before-

"Shinsou?! W-what you didn't tell me your dad was Eraserhead!! You- you knew!" The boy's face turned an embarrassed red, before plopping down next to Hitoshi. "Wait- you didn't know I was coming?"

Hitoshi grumbled, facing his Pops, "You knew didn't you? That's why you were acting all giddy?"

His Pops just laughed, "But your face was so hilarious-" Midoriya gasped, "Oh my fucking god- Present Mic-?!"

"Yup! That's me little listener! Although, keep it shush, yeah?" Midoriya nodded hastily, making Pops smile. "Where's your guardian, listener?"

Midoriya tensed, "I- uh, they're...busy?" Dad tsked, "Is that a question?" The underground hero raised a brow.

"I- uhm, no? They're busy. Yes."

"Very believable, kid. Tell me the truth."

"I- I live uh- alone. Um, my mom died last year and I don't know where my dad is..."

What.

Izuku held his breath, waiting for the two heroes, or at least Shinsou (god having two heroes as parents that's so cool--) to speak up. The table was silent, before Present Mic let out a small, fuck.

The two heroes looked at each other, communicating silently. Izuku glanced at his editor, who looked equally as confused but also... worried? Why?

"Is everything ok, Present Mic?" Izuku mumbled. "Ah- call me Yamada, listener. And you can call Shou Aizawa. Who- who takes care of you?"

"Oh. I take care of myself. I have a job at a grocery store nearby my house and my landlord gives me discounts so..."

The two heroes were now staring at him worryingly, and Shinsou's brows were furrowed.

"Fuck, ok. Kid, Deatharms is wanting to sue you."

Izuku felt his heart stutter, his hands became clammy.

"W-what?" His voice cracked, no, no, no- he doesn't- he can't-

"Midoriya, hey, breath", Shinsou said, making sure Izuku could see him. "I- I- can't-"

A sudden fog filled up Midoriya's mind, it was cloudy, unfocused and hazy. "Calm down," a voice cut through it all, "breath with me. In, out. In, out. That's good, keep doing it, in, out."

Suddenly he was back in the cafe, his breathing normal and his mind calm. "Sorry," Shinsou mumbled, shifting away from Izuku slightly, "...wanted to calm you down..."

"Midoriya", Eraser- Aizawa called, "We'll find a solution. First things first though, eat something. I'm sure you haven't had lunch. I'll pay for you."

Izuku nodded slowly, pointing to some random sandwich on the menu. A soft conversation rose from Aizawa and Yamada, while the two teens were in an awkward silence.

"S-so..." Izuku mumbled, "finished that documentary you were editing?"

Shinsou huffed, amused. "Not yet, Loud Claw wouldn't stop...."

Izuku went home with a promise of a more in depth talk. Aizawa-san mumbled something about rats, so Izuku decided not to push it. Shinsou was even more sarcastic in real life. It was interesting though, putting a face to the voice that was by his side for the past month. (Izuku was also ready to spam Shinsou with messages about how the purple haired boy betrayed him by not telling Izuku about the two heroes he lives with, but that was future Shinsou's problem)

Transcript of "Small break, sorry!!!"

by coffecat | English translation by coffecat

[The video is a short one, opening immediately with Yume sitting on the couch, skipping the intro. Yume is dressed in what looks to be basic house wear, shorts with a sweater which was blank. A small text in white appears, 'Oh so he does have normal clothes']

Yume: Hey guys! This isn't going to be a long video or anything. I just wanted to give you guys a heads up that I'll be taking a short break from uploading, so don't be surprised if I don't post anything this Sunday. I'm very thankful for all the support I've gotten recently!

[Yume pauses, most likely thinking about what to say next]

Yume: I can't really say why I'm going on a break, just know that I'm perfectly fine and healthy, and that I will come back. On a lighter note though, I met Editor-kun for the first time today! He's very good looking!

[The text appears again, showing 'no im not']

Yume: And also looked sleep deprived. Editor-kun you better not be editing this at 3am.

[Another small white text appears, 'you're not the boss of me', before flashing to '...' and then finally to 'ok you kinda are but shut up']

Yume: Anyway- that's all for this short video! I'll see you guys after this break, bye!!

[Video turns black]
