Picked, Chosen

by Breezingclouds

Summary:

Number 6 just wants to know who Shigaraki’s favorite hero is. The answer could be much better, in his opinion.

“Did you finally pick a hero?”

Shigaraki looks up, the screen flashing color as his pixelated character dies. 

“What?”

6 tilts his head, grins. “A hero. Tell me who you chose.”

Shigaraki frowns, lets his controller clatter, fall to the bar floor. 6 doesn’t come around often, but he likes it when he does. Kurogiri keeps a clean house.

The collar of Shigaraki’s shirt slips. The shoulder’s wrapped in a bloodied bandage, sticky edges curling up. 6 isn’t the only one who’s been training, lately.

“Eraserhead,” Shigaraki says, after a moment.

6 considers. “Why?”

“Erasing quirks… it’s just cool, y’know?”

 

Notes:

Have to say, I really like the Vigilantes spin-off, and the idea of Six being the reason behind Shigaraki’s fanboying of Aizawa was just too funny to pass up.
