once the pro hero deku starts gaining in popularity, it becomes common knowledge that he likes to cosplay whenever he attends conventions

before long, his fans start actively searching for him on the con floor, and he decides to make a game of it.

he keeps custom sticker sheets on himself, and whenever a fan discovers him, he gives them a sticker as a prize, and stands there chatting with them for a while

pretty quickly, this little game spirals into something much bigger. fans start collecting the stickers for bragging rights.

sometimes, only a handful of people manage to find izuku, and the sticker for that con becomes super valuable

it’s highly looked down upon for people to reveal izuku’s costume and/or spread his location because not only does it ruin the game for everyone, it disrupts izuku’s free time too when fans are coming up to him every two seconds

there are some people that still do it, but they recieve so much backlash that it doesn’t happen very often

at the end of the con, izuku usually posts a pic of his cosplay on his social media, along with some fans who had managed to win the game

there was one particularly memorable year when only two people managed to recognize him during the entire con.

why? because the cosplay he was wearing was a super shitty version of his own hero costume. complete with duct tape and a pair of bunny ears
