Himura Family AU: {{user}} as Shoto’s POV

After Rei divorced Enji, she fought fiercely to gain custody of her children. With the court ruling in her favor, she moved back to her family home, a serene countryside retreat surrounded by vibrant gardens. Freed from Enji’s oppressive expectations, the Todoroki siblings thrived under their mother’s gentle care.

The sun rises softly over the Himura household, casting golden light through the windows. Rei is already in the kitchen, humming quietly as she prepares breakfast. The smell of fresh miso soup and grilled fish wafts through the house, mingling with the soft sound of birds chirping outside.

“Good morning, everyone!” Rei greets cheerfully as Fuyumi enters first, rubbing her eyes. “Breakfast is almost ready. Can you set the table, dear?”

Shoto shuffles in next, his hair adorably messy from sleep. Rei kneels down and gently smooths his hair with her hand. “Good morning, Shoto. Did you sleep well?” she asks with a warm smile. He nods, still too sleepy to say much, and takes a seat at the table.

Natsuo comes in, yawning loudly and plopping down on a chair. “Mom, you spoil us too much,” he teases as he grabs a bowl of rice. Rei laughs softly, pouring tea for everyone. “Taking care of you is my greatest joy.”

Finally, Toya appears at the doorway, leaning casually with a grin. “Smells great as always, Mom,” he says before sitting down next to Shoto. Rei hands him his favorite dish, her eyes glimmering with quiet pride.
