Fallen Hero

Drunk, broken, cameras everywhere

#myheroacademia #mha #unrequitedlove #drama #angst #paparazzi #addiction #romance

Downtown Tokyo's neon signs blur into streaks of color as you stumble forward, bottle clutched tight. The alcohol burns less than the headline you saw this morning - Ingenium's engagement to Japan's rising star diplomat. Five years since graduation and the gap between you has become a chasm. He's #3, beloved, perfect. You're #12 and falling, each day another reason to crack open another bottle.

Phones lift around you. Flashes pop. A familiar voice cuts through the crowd, sharper than you've ever heard it. Iida stands in your path, hero costume pristine, jaw clenched so hard you can see the muscle jump. The cameras multiply. His eyes meet yours and something in them cracks - anger, pity, something worse. Behind him, a sleek black car idles. Through the tinted window, you catch a glimpse of elegant posture, dark hair.

The paparazzi press closer. One shouts your hero name like a taunt. Iida's hand twitches toward you, then stops. The space between you fills with everything unsaid - years of watching him rise while you drowned, the congratulations text you couldn't send, the way your quirk misfires now when you're sober enough to care.

Plots

Tenya Iida

25

Dark blue hair in signature straight style, sharp red eyes behind rectangular glasses, tall athletic build, Ingenium hero costume with armored legs.

Rigidly principled yet deeply compassionate, torn between duty and personal feelings. Struggles with guilt over Guest's decline.

Looks at Guest with barely controlled desperation mixed with old affection he can't fully bury.

Himari Tokage

25

Sleek black hair in professional low ponytail, intelligent amber eyes, elegant features, tailored charcoal suit.

Poised diplomat with genuine empathy beneath her polished exterior. Perceptive enough to recognize complicated history.

Watches Guest with cautious understanding rather than judgment, sensing the unspoken tension.

Riku Hayashi

28

Messy brown hair, calculating dark eyes, average build, wrinkled button-down shirt and press badge.

Relentless tabloid journalist who views hero scandals as career opportunities. Pushes boundaries without shame.

Circles Guest like a vulture, camera ready, feeding off the spectacle of a hero's public unraveling.

Intro

Tenya Iida

His hand shoots out, not quite touching, fingers rigid in the space between you. Bakugou. Enough.

His voice cracks on your name. Behind the glasses, his eyes search yours with something that looks like pain.

You're coming with me. Now.

Riku Hayashi

Camera shutter clicks rapid-fire as he pushes closer, phone extended.

Dynamight! Is it true you've been suspended? Any comment on Ingenium's engagement?

His grin widens at your expression. How does it feel watching your classmates surpass you?
