But He Doesn’t Think He Deserves Izuku’s Love - Blog Posts

This. This is everything. Aoyama desperately wants to share his pain with someone. He wants the pressure of protecting his parents lifted off his shoulders, but can’t take the first step to do so out of fear. He wants someone to reach out to him, to confront him, because he doesn’t have the courage to put himself. He sees Midoriya as just that. He thinks that if he leaves enough clues, Midoriya will piece it together and confront him, and Aoyama can finally be freed from the guilt of being a traitor.

But Midoriya doesn’t piece it together. He trusts his classmates so much. It would take undeniable proof right in front of his face to realize that his classmate is a traitor. Combine his trusting nature with his Classmates’ advice, and he mistakes Aoyama’s clues as hints of a crush.

And when these two polarizing perspectives finally confront each other, Aoyama once again doesn’t have the heart to tell the truth.

Uh oh…. I thought about them too long…

Star crossed unwilling traitor with the chosen one?? And no one’s tried it??
