Welcome back! This is my day two entry for 2019 Fluff Week. The theme is unlikely friendships. This is more of a buildup chapter, but hopefully you will still find some parts cute.

Before we get started, thank you everyone for all your love and support! It means so much to me! And big thank you again to my awesome beta, EmberStork.

The class 1-A dormitory was large but practical. Structured to look like a U, the boys dorms were on the left and the girls on the right. The common area connected the two sides with a large open floor plan that included a fully stocked kitchen, multiple tables and a 60 inch TV surrounded by couches and chairs.

At the moment, the twenty students that made up class 1-A had begun to squeeze onto those couches. No, nineteen. Shouto's heart tightened as he looked down at the young child cradled on his chest.

"Awww, she's so cute!" Ashido Mina said, plopping down next to him and leaning in, not caring about Shouto's personal space as she looked at the child. A smile spread on her pink lips. "What's your name?" Ashido asked, poking at the child's foot.

"Yes! Yes! Tell us your name," Hagakure Toru, echoed appearing like magic next to Ashido (or maybe she had been there the entire time, Shouto didn't know). Soon all the girls from class 1-A had crowded around him and were cooing and fussing with the child.

Shouto felt his shirt bunch in her small hands and tightened his hold.

"Maybe Momo-chan is embarrassed," Asui Tsuyu said, a finger resting on her chin in thought.

Uraraka Ochako squealed, smiling happily and clapping her hands together. "That's too cute!"

Yaoyorozu buried her face further into his shoulder.

"Hey, don't be embarrassed. We just want to be your friends. I'm Jirou Kyouka. What's your name?" Jirou asked, her voice softening.

After a pause, the child pushed slightly against his chest and Shouto loosened his hold so she could pull back. Her big, black eyes looked up at him as if asking for permission. When Shouto didn't respond, a small, embarrassed smile spread across her lips and she mumbled "Momo" before falling forward and burying her face into the crook of his neck.

The girls surrounding him squealed.

Shouto felt a small half-smile pull at the corners of his lips.

"Attention! Ashido-san. Hagakure-san calm down. Everyone sit down," ordered a tall boy with a wide frame and black hair parted neatly to the left of his head. His rectangular glasses slipped down his nose as he chopped his hand through the air to gain order. "As you know there has been an accident and Yaoyorozu…"

"You make it sound like she's dead," Ashido interrupted, leaning back on the couch to poke at Yaoyorozu's clothes. "Anyways, whose decision was it to get her the All Might onesie?" She asked, cocking her head as she looked over Shouto at Jirou.

"Don't look at me. You can thank Kaminari for that," Jirou replied, her ear jack pointing across the room.

"Hey," Kaminari said from the opposite couch. "You sent me alone and I panicked. But you have to admit, it's an awesome outfit! Who doesn't like All Might? Most of my boxers have him on them."

"Ewww! Too much information," Jirou laughed from behind her hand.

Shouto deadpanned as he imagined All Might's signature smile on Kaminari's crotch.

"Stop your whining and get to the point," snapped a boy with spiky, blonde hair and red eyes. Obviously fed up with the banter, Bakugo leaned forward, placing his elbows on his spread legs he shot a glare across the room at Shouto. "What the hell happened half and half?"

Shouto's eyes narrowed.

Bakugo's question grated on his nerves. As if the whole situation was his fault.

It wasn't like he wanted Yaoyorozu to be hit with the kid's quirk. And it wasn't like he wanted to be the one stuck taking care of her either.

Shouto's chest tightened. He was the least qualified to care for another. Endeavor had made sure of that. In all likelihood he'd probably just screw up and make her cry like he had his mother. As if feeling his frustration, the midnight black head pulled back and onyx eyes looked owlishly up at him. "Are you mad? Did I do something wrong?" Yaoyorozu asked, her voice tilting with the cadence of a toddler.

The girls surrounding him immediately began to coo at the three year old. Shouto ignored them as he pulled Yaoyorozu back into his chest. "No, I'm not mad." He said, giving her a small squeeze. After a second, pudgy arms wrapped tentatively around his neck. Shouto felt the anger drain from him. Even as a child, Yaoyorozu was always worried about others.

Iida coughed, bringing his attention back to the front of the room. "That's right, perfect segway Bakugo-kun. I'm going to turn it over to Mineta-kun who will talk us through the events of this afternoon," Iida said, stepping back as a small boy with grape like hair stood up and cleared his throat behind his hand.

"At about 0300 a group of us went to the arcade, then, at about 0330 a group of kids came into the arcade and one of them used his quirk to reverse Yaomomo back to a child. We think between 3 or 4 years old."

"We also know from discussions with the bra-" Mineta faked a cough. "The kid's mother and observation that Yaomomo will stay a kid for the next 24 to 48 hours, has lost the majority of her memories after age 3 and will only follow around the first person she saw when turned. As such, we have dubbed this the duckling quirk."

"Why? Ducks don't follow the first person they see. Isn't it more like a gosling?" asked Sero Hanata.

"That's true kero," said Asui. A murmur of agreement rustled through the students.

"Quiet! Quiet! Gosling or duckling; who cares? The problem is that Yaomomo's hot body is gone!"

Shouto frowned. It was no secret that Mineta had lecherous tendencies and had tried to prey on Yaoyorozu over the last three years. Using her innocence and naivety to trick her into falling for his plans. Anger welled up inside him at the memories and he felt the familiar chill of his quirk but when he looked down nothing was there.

"So what do we do now?" asked Ochako hesitantly.

Midoriya fidgeted next to her. "I don't know. I...I guess just wait?" he said, his eyes dropping to the floor.

Heated discussion broke out on what to do next. Shouto sighed, he wished Yaoyorozu was here. She always knew what to do. She was reliable and mature and that's why he trusted her. His chest tightened strangely at the thought of her.

"What about changing her back? Don't quirks have a limit or something? Didn't you say something like that Bakugo? Back during the sports festival." Kirishima asked, turning to Bakugo.

"That was different dumbass."

Midoriya looked up. "Technically that could work," he said, rubbing his chin in thought. "Usually all quirks can be reversed or weakened one way or another. Like Mineta-kun's quirk can be countered by fire or ice. Maybe if -"

"Midoriya," The teenagers looked up. Standing in the doorway was Aizawa Shoto, their homeroom teacher. His tired eyes narrowed on Midoriya. "Time altering quirks are extremely sensitive. If forcibly reversed they could do permanent damage."

Shouto's throat felt dry. Aizawa continued.

"Iida already informed me of the situation," Aizawa said, his gaze leaving Midoriya to sweep over the rest of the class. "It's best not to try anything extreme, unless any of you are looking to adopt."

"We'd never do anything to hurt Yaomomo," Jirou said, a flush had worked its way over her face at the unspoken accusation. Shouto saw some of the other students nod in agreement.

"But what if we just try something easy to turn her back, like trying to get her memories back with games or something?" Kamanari asked.

Aizawa sighed. "That should be fine. Just nothing that would endanger her or yourselves. And don't have her practice her quirk," he ordered, his voice sounded more tired than usual. A murmur of agreement passed through the students. "I'll be back later to check in on her and I'll bring dinner for the rest of you. In the meantime don't go out and don't do anything stupid."

The class nodded again.

"Iida, notify me if anything in Yaoyorozu's condition changes."

Iida saluted (yes, sir!). Aizawa stared at his class for another moment before turning around and leaving as silently as he had entered.

The tension in the room visibly relaxed.

"Yeah! Free food!" Kaminari, Ashido and Mineta shouted.

"But that's one powerful quirk. I can only imagine if the kid becomes a villain," said Sero thoughtfully.

"That's true but we don't know how it works, it could just turn whoever he touches his age," said Midoriya.

"Hey! Focus on one thing at a time nerd," Bakugo barked and for once Shouto agreed with Lord Explosion Murder. They needed to get Yaoyorozu back and soon. He didn't know how long he'd be able to take care of her like this. He was already afraid his hand crushing curse had infected her. If he made her cry, he'd never forgive himself. Shouto gulped.

"Todoroki-kun? Are you alright?" Midoriya asked, concern evident on his face. "Don't worry. I think it's still worth it if we try and get Yaoyorozu back but, if we can't, it's only for a day or two and we'll all be around to help out. Or I mean I don't mind helping," he said bashfully, rubbing the back of his head.

"Don't back down Midoriya! It's not very manly," said Kirishima punching his fist into his other hand.

"Yes, as class president, it is my duty to help all my classmates. You can count on me," said Iida, adjusting his glasses.

"And me too," Uraraka smiled.

"Yeah, as friends I don't mind helping out too Todoroki," Mineta said, nodding in agreement. Shouto looked down at Yaoyorozu. He had been forced to grow up in isolation. Training until his body nearly broke but now he wasn't alone.

Yaoyorozu was looking up at him with a big smile. Absently, he smoothed down some of her hair as the rest of the class joined in agreeing to help anyway they could. Their support filled him with warmth. Friends. He had never thought he'd be so lucky to have so many people that would care and support him. He didn't have to do this alone. "Thanks."

"Good! Now let's begin operation get Yaomomo's boobs back!" Mineta said, pumping his fist into the air.

Shouto internally grimaced. No one said he had to like all of his friends.
