Another Ms. Joke headcannon-not sad this time I swear

Headcannon that Ms. Joke doesn’t just call her students “My kids”, she treats them like they are actually her own kids.

Like, giving her students great big hugs whenever they make a significant improvement in using their quirks, absolutely gushing and marveling at each and every one of them when they show off a special move (”Hey Mo-I mean Ms. Joke look at this!” is a rather common saying in her class, she pretends not to notice but it makes her day every time), packing a few extra sandwiches in case someone forgot to bring their lunch and don’t have enough money to pay for one.

And visiting any students that didn’t come to class that day to make sure their okay, bringing along all the homework for that day and like, twenty different unbelievably bad puns to cheer them up.

Also NOBODY bullies her kids, because the last student who did that had a…talk with her. When they came back they were pale as a sheet and kept muttering, “That wasn’t funny…”

(when people found out exactly what she did she nearly lost her job, but she doesn’t regret it, not one bit,

“Nobody messes with my kids,” She told the principle of Ketsubutsu when he asked why she did it, “Nobody.”)

…I just really like the fact she calls them her “kids” okay!?         

Ms. Joke Headcannon:

When ever Ms. Joke isn’t busy with with really important time consuming stuff like Teaching/Hero business/Annoying the crap out of Aizawa, she volunteers in all sorts of places.

Seriously, when ever she has any time off she spends it either helping out in an animal shelter, cleaning up her neighborhood, or visiting random children in a hospital.

And when she goes to hospitals, she brings her A-game, making sure every kid there is smiling and laughing instead of getting bummed out over having to stay there for whatever reason. She even jokes around with the doctors and helps the nurses out a little while she’s there.

Bonus extra sad headcannon:

After she’s done joking with the kids, she always makes sure to take a trip through the Oncology ward to talk to all of the patients there, young and old, and have a little fun with them, and to wish them good luck (”Keep fighting, and laughing, got it?”), and talk with them a little too (those that want to talk any way).

All the while she’s sneaking looks around her, hoping against hope that she doesn’t see a kid there, but if she does (and she always, always does), she makes a point of spending extra time with them, learning their names, their dreams, how long they’ve been staying at the hospital, why they’re there and so on. And when she’s done, and she really needs to get going, she gives the kid her number, so they can call her any hour of any day and talk to her, or ask her to come visit, or anything at all.

She always keeps close contact with them, all of them, sometimes up to 10 at a time, to the point it almost interferes with her work. She gets them gifts, actually tasty food, takes pictures every time she has to go to work, and even arranges party with all of them (or at least those that don’t live too far apart).

And of course, she keeps the parents in the loop. She gives them her number so she can get permission to visit the kid on any given day, and updates on how they’re doing. As well as…break the news to her if (when) the worst case scenario comes up. 

She has a really thick picture album in her room by her bed, titled “My Brave Kids”, filled with all the picture she took with the sick kids she bonded with over the years, and every night before bed she picks it up without opening it, feels the weight of it in her hands for a minute, then puts it down and goes to sleep. Nobody knows about it, nobody.

(She wonder how long it will take for it to be too heavy for her to lift. or until she’ll need to get a new one

Any day now. Any day now.)
