Idk if you're taking requests but I just read the deku having a crush on his wife and it was so cute. If possible can I request one of shoto??? Ty!!
men being their wife's #1 supporter >>>>> Warnings: fem reader, shoto’s a little feral Word Count: 1 K ~~~
The interviewer holds a stack of question cards, eyes skimming the first one before looking up at Shoto, “So, the story is that you, apparently, are a newlywed?”
“Yes, and it’s the happiest time of my life - don’t say it’s the honeymoon phase,” Shoto looks over at the camera, “I plan on only growing more unhinged in my love for my wife as the years go.”
“Well, we look forward to that!” the man chuckles.

“Uh, babe?” you turn to where your husband sits beside you on the couch, his arm thrown over your shoulders, “Did you ever see the title of the video for that interview you did?”
“No,” he switches his gaze from the TV to you, “why?”
“Oh, nothing,” you grin before shoving your phone in his face to show off the video, “Just this.”
Shoto’s eyes scan the title - “Prohero Shoto Shows Off Massive Crush on Wife”.
He merely nods, “Sounds about right. It was that same guy from a few years ago, when we first got married.”
“Can I watch it? I think I should know what was said about me.”
“As if I would say no,” he pressed a kiss to your forehead before standing, “Put it on the TV, I’ll make tea.”
Once Shoto comes back to his favorite spot on the couch, beside you, you hit play and after the intro is a shot of the interviewer sat across from your husband. He grins as he introduces Shoto to the camera, as if people wouldn’t already know who the hero was.
“I think just right off the bat, I have to ask,” the man’s grin is cheesy, but it conveys enough joy to keep the energy up, “what’s ridiculous to you about the media? And since your father hated interviews, do you think you’ve gotten any of that from him?”
“Interviews are fine. People are just doing their jobs, I get that,” he presses his lips into a thin line as he thinks, “What’s strange to me about the media, however, is actually a specific moment.”
“Oh? And what is that?”
“There was this one gala that I took my wife to a few months ago and everyone was obsessing over her look,” he nods curtly, “as they should have. But what was weird was how everyone was just now paying attention to her. It was like… like watching a piece of art go unnoticed.”
“Like the Mona Lisa?”
“No, like actual art.”
The chuckle bubbling from the man’s lips is genuine as he says, “I see. Well- “
“And I remember for our wedding she was tired of trying on things and said she was going to wear sweatpants,” he shakes his head, “I- I could only ask what color so it’d match with my tie. You know?”
“I imagine,” he nods.
“And on our wedding day,” Shoto puts up a finger to stop the interviewer before he can even begin speaking, “we had a private, not really dinner, but a moment, before the reception. And we just kept calling each other by first and last name, because she was taking my last name and it was,” he tilts his head, “I don’t think I’ve ever been happier. And I do have a lovely mother and great siblings and friends, but truly they do not compare.”
“Well, speaking of your wife being so pretty to you- “
“I’ll reach over there and wrangle you if you don’t correct that.”
“Well, speaking of your wife being so pretty,” Shoto nods, muttering a quiet ‘good’ under his breath as the interviewer continues, “I’d like to bring up a recent ‘scandal’ for lack of a better term.”
“Is this about the ‘damn mommy’ incident,” Shoto wrings his hands together nervously.
The man can’t help but laugh as he nods, “It is. What’s the story behind that?”
“I sneezed and accidentally commented ‘damn mommy’ on my wife’s post,” Shoto crosses his arms and leans back in the chair, “Freak accident.”
“According to my research,” the man shakes his head now, “it was on every single one of her posts.”
“I had the flu.”
“Understandable,” the man flips to a card, “we have a few questions from fans. First of all, what would you say is the strangest thing that you own?”
“Strangest thing I own,” Shoto taps the armrest of the chair, “sometimes I have to leave for long periods of time for work and I’m very clingy, obviously, and so my wife surprised me with a teddy bear. But the teddy bear actually has her voice in it and it’s her saying she loves me. It’s the most incredible thing ever. I’d say that everyone should get one, but I don’t think they deserve it. At all.”
“I see. Well, another question that we have for you is what’s your favorite phrase or a phrase that interests you?”
“One time my wife was on the phone with me while I was away for work and she was telling me that ‘wish you were here’ in Persian is…” he pauses to mutter under his breath, “is jāy-e shomā khālīst,” he looks at the camera, “apologies for poor pronunciation, but it apparently translates to ‘your place is empty’. And I’ve never forgotten it because it felt so true.”
“Right, of course,” the man flips to another card, “And just to finish it off, what was a big moment of pain in your life that you had to overcome?”
“One time I asked my wife if she still would’ve married me if I was a worm and she said that she didn’t think it was even legal, so she couldn’t. I honestly still don’t think I’m even over that.”

Turning away from the video, you look at Shoto, “Aw, baby. I’m sorry about the worm thing.”
“No, no, dear,” he leans over to kiss your forehead, “I’m not mad. I could never be mad at you over something like that.”
“Well, that’s good,” you take his chin in your hand to tilt his head and press a kiss to his lips, “I love you.”
“I love you, too,” he brings you closer to his side.
“Yeah, I think that everyone who watched this knows that, but thank you. You’re such a good husband.”
“Only the best for my incredible wife.”
