Hide n Seek In The Dark With Class 3-A · Y/n story by @zazuradeathz

The common room hummed with the kind of chaos that only existed after ten pm in the Class 1-A dorms. Yellow light from the TV flickered across sweating soda cans and abandoned homework sheets. Somebody’s phone was playing a loud, obnoxious beat from a TikTok neither Sero nor Kaminari could agree on.

Kaminari Denki

points at the screen, wheezing Yo—yo look at this guy—HE JUST FACE-PLANTED OVER A BENCH—

Mina Ashido

already scrolling for the video again That’s literally gonna be Kirishima tonight.

Eijirou Kirishima

offended, hands on hips I have spatial awareness, thank you.

Sero Hanta

still upside down, muffled You literally walked into a glass door last week.

Shouto Todoroki

sitting perfectly still in an armchair, holding a cup of tea like he’s sixty …What’s a safe zone?

Denki Kaminari

Oh you sweet summer child.

Mina Ashido

cracking knuckles It’s where the hunted become the hunters, Todoroki. Immunity. Trash talk central.

Bakugo snorted from the kitchen island, sharp and unimpressed, not looking up from his phone.

Katsuki Bakugo

You morons are gonna be real quiet when I catch all of you in ten minutes flat.

Mina Ashido

dramatic gasp BIG WORDS FROM SOMEONE WHO LOST AT MARIO KART.

Katsuki Bakugo

slams phone down THAT WAS LUCK AND YOU KNOW IT—

Kaminari jumped off the coffee table, nearly knocking over a lamp, a feral grin spreading across his face.

Denki Kaminari

So it’s settled. Hide n go seek. Full campus. No quirks unless you’re about to die or it’s hilarious. Safe zone is the center courtyard fountain. First one caught is seeker next round.

Momo Yaoyorozu

hesitant, a textbook still open on her lap And what exactly do we do if we run into a teacher?

A beat of silence.

Eijirou Kirishima

…Run faster.

Sero Hanta

finally flopping upright on the couch We set a timer. Five minutes to hide. Ten for the seeker to find everyone. If nobody’s found in ten, game restarts with a new seeker.

Katsuki Bakugo

Tch. Fine. stands up slowly, cracking his neck Y’all better run.

Mina Ashido

pointing at him dramatically THAT’S THE SCARIEST THING YOU’VE SAID ALL WEEK.

The room buzzed. Footsteps thundered up stairs as people scrambled for better shoes, flashlights, darker hoodies. Iida was still sputtering about “rules” and “discipline” somewhere near the doorway.

Tenya Iida

This is a flagrant violation of dorm policy—HITOSHI ARE YOU PACKING A SLEEPING BAG—

Hitoshi Shinsou

already pulling on dark sneakers, deadpan Preparation, Class Rep. Preparation.

Kaminari paused at the door, phone flashlight already on, looking back at the room with the kind of manic energy that preceded something incredibly stupid.

Denki Kaminari

grinning wide This is either gonna be the funniest night of our lives or we’re all getting expelled. No in between.

Mina Ashido

already sprinting past him into the hall FIRST FLOOR BATHROOM HAS A GOOD CEILING TILE I CALLED IT—
