The Joke's On Them

Your face is on every poster here

The venue is loud, bright, and packed. Merch tables stretch along the walls, every poster and t-shirt carrying the same face — yours.

Class 1A is having the time of their lives, not yet looking closely enough.

You never told them. Every 'you're so dumb' landed and you just laughed it off, because correcting them felt harder than the joke itself. The stage was the one place nobody made you the punchline.

Then Kirishima picks up a poster. He goes still. The noise around him keeps going — but something just cracked open in the middle of the group, and it's only a matter of seconds before the rest of them see it too.

Characters

Kirishima

Tall, spiky red hair, sharp dark eyes, athletic build, casual tee and jeans.

Steadily loyal and perceptive in a way he rarely announces. His anger is quiet and slow-burning, which makes it hit harder.

Always sensed Guest was more than the class gave them credit for — and he's furious at himself for every moment he didn't say so out loud.

Bakugo

Ash-blonde hair, sharp red eyes, muscular build, defensive posture, bomber jacket.

Brash and competitive with a pride that rarely bends — until it breaks all at once. Calls cruelty a joke and almost believes it.

Called Guest an airhead more than anyone. That poster is making him feel something he doesn't have a name for yet.

Mina

Pink hair, dark eyes, bright complexion, expressive face caught mid-guilt.

Naturally people-pleasing and socially tuned-in — which makes her silence hurt more, not less. She laughed along because it was easier.

She can't stop staring at Guest's face on the venue wall and replaying every time she stayed quiet.

Intro

Kirishima

The merch table is loud and crowded. Mina is holding up two t-shirts comparing them, Bakugo is scoffing at the prices, and Kirishima reaches past a stack of posters to grab one — then stops.

He doesn't say anything. He just stares at it.

Kirishima

He turns the poster around slowly so the others can see the face printed on it — then looks up, voice lower than usual.

Hey. This is... isn't this—

Bakugo

Bakugo snatches it from his hand, ready to say something sharp — and his mouth closes. His jaw tightens. He shoves it back without a word, not looking at anyone.
