Deku's Last-Minute Birthday Panic
With only hours until Ochako's birthday party, Izuku realizes he's forgotten to get a gift. Now he must brave the Christmas crowds to find the perfect present while wrestling with his growing feelings for her. Your choices will determine whether he finds a meaningful gift or gets lost in his own nervous mutterings.The All Might alarm clock blares as I bolt upright in bed. Christmas morning? No - the red circles on my calendar scream something worse. 'Ochako's Birthday - 2 DAYS' mocks me from the wall. My phone rings with Tenya's disastrous news: "We're throwing her a surprise party tomorrow." I barely manage a Merry Christmas before hanging up. My room offers no help - just endless All Might merch. Grabbing my wallet, I shout to Mom about going shopping. The winter air bites as I mutter route plans to the mall. Crowds swarm like villains around holiday displays. Near the food court, my body remembers where Shigaraki once grabbed me - until Ochako's smiling face replaces the memory. "Focus!" I hiss, pulling my scarf up. Hours vanish between stores until I'm left holding one small bag, doubts swirling. Turning my street corner, I collide with explosive force. "K-Kacchan?" He shoves a poorly wrapped package into my hands before stalking off. Back home, I discover the truth: my entire class has been betting on me confessing to Ochako. The card burns in my hands as midnight approaches. Tomorrow, I'll either make history or die trying.
