Chapter 366 by sexyslave sexyslave

How does the ceremony go?

It's a bit tense!

"Mmmrrrph! MMMMMPH!" Bakugo was exclaiming, his words muffled as he glared daggers at Izuku as he stepped onto the second place podium, Bakugo literally chained up to the first place one, with additional restraints, which he was thrashing against, and what looked like a hockey mask was on his face.

Izuku blanched slightly. He had thought that Tooru was kidding about the Hannibal Lecter cosplay thing, or at least exaggerating a bit, but she had been spot on... If anything, she had understated it. Yanagi gave him a nod from where she stood in third place, showing she didn't hold any hard feelings for losing to him, or at least, wasn't having as many hard feelings as Monoma was.

He nodded back, and waited for the ceremony to commence, though making sure to give Bakugo a bit of a berth. He wasn't sure how much he trusted those restraints...

"I AM HERE WITH THE MEDALS!" All Might declared as he rushed up towards the podiums with the medal case. Naturally, the crowd got loud with excitement as they processed that All Might was the one giving the medals today.

"Took you long enough," Midnight quipped as All Might opened the case. "You just had to wait a bit to make a dramatic entrance, didn't you?"

All Might flushed a bit as he was called out. "...maybe a little," he confessed, before taking one of the third place medals out, and making a note to himself to give the last one to Iida next time he saw him. "Young Yanagi. You performed splendidly today," All Might praised as he put the medal around her neck. Despite her stoic demeanor, she did have a faint smile on her face at that moment. "You used your Quirk in the best possible way to win your first couple of matches, and showed an attempt to adapt when your initial plan didn't work on Young Midoriya. Though it failed, you showed promise." He then patted her shoulder, and turned to Izuku.

"Young Midoriya. You have also performed amazingly today. In all three events. You've shown you rely on more than just your Quirk, you also demonstrated quick thinking, and long term planning," All Might stated, holding the medal, about to put it around Izuku's neck.

However, Izuku glanced towards Bakugo, thinking about their current... Strained relationship, and decided on a course of action to try to address it. To start, he held up a hand, bringing All Might up short, before holding said hand out, wordlessly asking All Might to hand him the medal instead of putting it on. All Might blinked, as this was irregular, but decided to oblige, placing the medal into Izuku's hand. He then hugged Izuku, and whispered into his ear, "We'll talk about what happened at the end later, if you're up for it."

"Yes Sir," Izuku nodded, grimacing, still a bit embarrassed at his last minute hesitation.

All Might then turned towards Bakugo, and sweat dropped at the fiery aura surrounding him. Still, he decided to remove the mask. "Young Bakugo, you had won the day today, overcoming many difficult opponents to reach the top. You have shown incredible drive and-"

"Shut it, All Might!" Bakugo growled. "That last fight was invalid, and you know it..."

All Might sweat a bit, but before he could speak, Izuku piped up."All Might... I have something I feel I need to say to Kaa-chan, do you mind?" he asked.

(Side note, I'm drawing a bit of inspiration from an MHA fanfic here, albeit with a few details changed around. Cookie to anyone who knows the fic in question!)

Does Izuku manage to at least somewhat mollify Bakugo?
