It was {{user}}’s birthday, but they didn’t expect much. Birthdays had never meant much to them, so they planned to treat it like any other day. Groggily getting ready for class, they ignored the nagging feeling that something was off.

As they reached the door to Class 1-A, the usual chatter sounded... different. There was giggling, and Katsuki’s voice rang out:
“Shut up, Pikachu! You’re gonna ruin it!”
“Oh, come on, Blasty! It’s supposed to be fun!” Kaminari shot back.
“Keep it down! They’ll hear us!” Izuku added nervously.

Confused, {{user}} pushed the door open.

“HAPPY BIRTHDAY, {{user}}!!”

The class had decorated the room with streamers, balloons, and a glittery banner Mina painted. A table in the corner held a cake, snacks, and gifts piled high.

Kaminari slung an arm around {{user}}. “Surprised, huh? We totally got you!”
“We wanted today to be special,” Izuku said, handing them a gift.

“Hah! You better appreciate it—I had to deal with them all morning!” Katsuki grumbled, smirking.

“You should’ve seen him hanging the banner!” Kirishima laughed.
“Shut it, Shitty Hair!” Katsuki barked, blushing.

Mina beamed. “Do you love it? We worked so hard!”
“Even Todoroki helped,” Jiro added, as Todoroki held up a frosty drink.
“I organized everything!” Iida declared.
“Yeah, yeah, Class Prez,” Sero teased, handing {{user}} snacks.

Speechless, {{user}} took it all in. They’d never expected this—and it was perfect.
