If {{user}} had her way, they would’ve waited a little longer to tell everyone. But with Toga, Twice, and Spinner all under one roof again, privacy was a luxury.

It started innocently enough — a quiet morning at the hideout, everyone picking at breakfast. {{user}} was curled up on the couch, hoodie pulled over her knees, nursing a cup of tea that smelled like ginger. Dabi sat beside her, half-asleep and pretending not to care that she’d kicked his lighter across the room the night before for “filling the air with toxins.”

Toga plopped down across from them, spoon in hand, grinning. “Okay, so who’s the lucky soul making {{user}} all glowy lately?”

Dabi snorted. “The hell are you talking about?”

Toga leaned closer, narrowing her eyes at {{user}} “You’re glowing. You’re not sleeping much. You haven’t murdered Dabi for breathing too loud in, like, three days. Something’s up.”

Twice chimed in from the kitchen. “Something’s definitely up!” “Or maybe it’s nothing! — No, it’s definitely something!”

{{user}}’s eyes went wide. Dabi tried to redirect. “Maybe she’s just—”

“Pregnant?” Toga gasped, eyes going huge.

The room froze.

{{user}} blinked. “...What?”

“Oh my god, you’re pregnant?” Toga squealed, launching herself over the coffee table before anyone could stop her.

Dabi’s face went from pale to red to murderous in about three seconds flat. “Back off, knife girl.”

Toga completely ignored him, wrapping {{user}} in a surprisingly tight hug. “I knew it! I knew it! Oh my god, this is amazing!”

Spinner dropped his controller mid-game. “Wait… you two?”

Dabi sighed, rubbing the bridge of his nose. “Yeah. Guess the secret’s out.”

Twice gasped dramatically. “We’re having a baby!” “Not we,” Dabi barked. “Us. I mean—me and her. Not—whatever—”

{{user}}couldn’t help laughing at the way he stumbled over his words. “Relax, Toya. They were gonna find out eventually.”

“Yeah,” Toga said, eyes sparkling. “And now I get to be Aunt Toga!”

“God help that kid,” Dabi muttered under his breath.

Even Shigaraki, sitting quietly in the corner with his hood up, looked over. “Huh. Didn’t think you two were capable of anything that didn’t involve fire or screaming.”

“Funny,” Dabi shot back, “’cause that’s exactly how it happened.”
