Yo, whassup everyone.

Raizor: Now you've put that image in my head and I can't stop laughing lmaooo

Exofurios: Well, thanks for the compliment. I've never tried webnovel, so I wouldn't know. Surely they can't all be that bad?

geoslim21: Yeah, glad you're on board with the decision. As for Mineta, he will get a redemption... of sorts. I've not fully planned it out yet. And Endeavor has a whole 'nother thing coming to him.

Saramus92: Glad to see you agree with most of my choices. For Shoto and Yui, I think that apart from Momo, Shoto would be paired well with her. And since someone requested I don't do TodoMomo, and I'm pretty open to requests unless it totally messes up my plans, I just decided to switch it to Yui.

DeadwoodT: I will eventually do a fic where he's paired with Melissa, but that probably won't be for quite a while, sorry.

Daoist Atlas: But even if U.A. looked into Bakugo's past in a check, without any actual knowledge of what he'd like normally, it's be useless. Because Aldera probably faked all of his records and made him look like the perfect model student, meaning that the teacher would only notice discrepancies once he starts teaching them.

Spellbat: They'll go to any lengths to protect their man lmfao. I'm not sure when I'll do that fight. Maybe closer to the end of the school year.

Humble3dore: I won't even lie, you did call it lmao. When the first one came through I looked back at your review like how the hell did this guy tell the future xD. Good to see you think my AFO depiction is accurate. I was kinda worried about it, so that's a relief.
And the NIGERUNDAYO is from personal experience for me too

Elpis21: Thanks... I think?

TheLazyWarrior: A good suggestion. I've looked at it, and decided I'll split it into two. There'll be a Dekusquad and a Kirisquad, but they'll be the closest out of all the different groups.

Tomorrow's Hero: Yeah, they'll end up with just a friend dynamic I think. Sorry that you don't get to see any pairings that swing that way or anything, I'm just not very supportive of all that. I'm not actively against it either, but I'd just rather not have it in my story. As for your next point, Nighteye's not gonna have a big role in this story. Like, at all. One, I hate/strongly dislike him, and two, his Quirk is a pain in the ass to write and plan for. Okay, I now see what you mean about Dark Fallen Angel lmaoo, and yeah, Black Ankh will come in fairly soon. Probably at the same point it did in the manga/anime.

SmokyGhoul: Yeah, sorry the chapters are taking so long right now. Hopefully once we get into the action of the training camp, I'll be able to speed it up a little. Thanks for your support!

Karyuno: I've been giving it a little thought, and honestly? I actually might. I'll say a bit more in the A/N down at the bottom.

Harleking31: The students -and by extension, the media- won't find out about Bakugo's turn to the dark side for a while. They'll find out he's gone missing fairly soon, but he won't reveal himself for a long time.

Justice and chaos: Thanks! Glad to see you're enjoying my plan for the story so far.

solbandgus: Ohh, I'm glad to see someone noticed the foreshadowing about Tomura's drive a while ago. Not many seemed to.

Draegoon: Yeah, you're not totally wrong with the Cell bit. While obviously he's not as ridiculously powerful as that guy, his main goal is to achieve perfection in his fighting and power.

Vonta01: No problem! Where were you going?

siddarthshreedhar: Thanks man. Always to good to see a non toxic fan lmfao

EbayUserGreen: Yeah, they pissed me off until I just didn't care lmao. I had an awakening. They can go die while looking for their oefrect fanfic xD

AnimeFan13579: Yeah, Mumen Rider's gonna have a cameo in that fight lmao. Obviously, he'll get destroyed. You know, if he was in the MHA universe he would've been the most perfect candidate for One for All, like, ever. The raid is still definitely gonna go ahead, but don't worry, I got plans for Muscular. He'll become like a Speed o' Sound Sonic character, constantly breaking out of jail just so he can fight Izuku once more. And what the hell? Ojiro and Ectoplasm have the same voice actor? What sorcery.

Rfdfvv: No, this was planned. I think I got the idea wjhile writing the USJ scene, so yeah, it's been a long time coming.

helrio uzugaku: Well while I feel you make a good point, I feel that that's how it would be if this happened in canon. With such an overpowered Izuku, I feel that as AFO mentioned he could give him as many Quirks and as much power as he needs, Bakugo would be hooked. After all, no Hero can offer that (He doesn't know about All Might obviously). And you'll see how Shigaraki reacts in the chapters to come.

A Queen Among Women: Yeah, I'm gonna have All for One guide him a lot to entrench him in Villainy. Because right now, Bakugo still has his doubts, small may they be. And while we're on the topic of people who hate the story, thanks for your continued support! You've been reviewing almost since the start, I think!

.sebastian: Nah, Izuku won't get OFA. There's no point, really, when OFA's top speed and strength levels are nowhere near his.

Seud: I see what you mean, it probably could've been done better. I think I rushed quite a few things in those starting chapters. I hope you found the latter chapters easier to read.

ppgang: JOTARO!
J-Jotaro was crushed by the teeth!
J-Jotaro...
We didn't make it in time...?
No, wait. I can hear something.
ora ora ora ora ora...
It sounds a bit far away...
Ora Ora Ora...
Sounds like it's getting closer.
Th-This voice...!
OraOraOraOra!
The teeth! It's coming from inside the teeth!
Everyone brace yourselves!
...Huh?
ORA ORA ORA ORA ORA!
Despite the teeth being as hard as diamonds, he managed to dig his way out!
OH, MY GOD!
Whilehe's at it, he's breaking all the other teeth as well!
...For crying out loud...
As usual...
That stand's power is immense.
ORAORAORAORAORAORAORA!
Hey, we're getting the hell outta here.
Ora...Ora...ORA!
Well, those were some pretty hard teeth, but I busted them anyway.
I guess your diamonds...
Were a little low on calcium, biatch.

partner555: Indeed it was lmao

Reviewmonkey4u: I'm not gonna put Pony in the Dekusquad, just because there's already so many people in it. For Tokoyami, a lot more people have requested Tsu, so sorry about that. Maybe another story. And Bakugo may not really be screwed. I kinda have a plan for that.

gearhead2177: Yeah, I know what you mean. And I'm glad you think that way. That's what I've been going for the whole while.

Onto the story! Enjoy!

.

.

.

Class 1-A stood at the entrance to Kiyashi Ward, looking at the multitude of stores spread before them. How on earth were they supposed to pick which one to go to first?

Suddenly a crowd formed around them. "Hey, aren't you the U.A. first years! Good job at the Sports Festival!"

Ochaco winced, briefly having flashbacks to massive explosions in her face. "People still remember that?"

A group of girls jumped in front of Izuku and his friends. "Kyaa~! It's the Dekusquad! Marry me, Dek-"

The girl in the lead was cut off by Jiro raising her jacks threateningly and tapping her foot, and Mina curling her hands threateningly like Bakugo and pooling acid in her palms. "Ah, never mind. You two can fight over him, then." She said, and Mina and Jiro smirked at each other.

Five minutes later, the crowds had dispersed, and the class started to determine what they needed. "I'll need some rugged outdoor shoes." Kaminari said, pointing at a shoe store close by.

"Me, too, me too!" Toru agreed excitedly.

Suddenly, Iida was beside them. "But the manual recommended well worn footwear..." Then he turned around, his mind in a dilemma. "...Or should we be focusing on utility instead...?"

Mineta looked around blankly. "Where d'you think they sell lockpicking equipment and hand drills?"

Every girl in the class tensed up angrily. "Just you try it..."

Kirishima, ever the peacemaker, jumped in to defuse the situation. "Right! It looks like we all need different stuff! How about we split up and meet at a designated time?"

Momo nodded. "Yes, that would probably be for the best." She spoke up from beside Tsu. "Let's see... It's just past noon. Let's meet back up at five! That should give everyone ample time to find everything they need!"

The class all promptly agreed, and started walking off in different directions. "Keep your eyes peeled for a shop that is willing to trade with us for bug spray." Shoji said to Tokoyami and Shoto as they walked off.

Shoto looked at him in alarm. "I have to...peel my eyes?!"

Both boys, and Dark Shadow, just stared at him.

"He... He's kidding, right?"

Momo, Ochaco, Iida and Tsu walked off in another direction, talking about toiletries, while Ojiro and Hagakure went off in another direction with Aoyama trailing them. To the anger of the girls, the first shop Mineta entered was one with binoculars displayed in the front window. Kaminari followed him hastily, unsure if he was kidding or not.

Kirishima and Sero went off into a hat store, and Koda and Sato set off to just look around for the moment.

Izuku was left with Mina and Jiro, the two girls looking at him expectantly. "Well, what's the first thing on your list, Mina?" Izuku asked.

After the two girls had explained to him what the whole thing during the exam had been about, Izuku had stopped calling her Nuisance. He'd just meant it as a fun nickname, but apparently it had hit harder than he'd thought. Since he was yet to come up with a new pet name, he'd just reverted to calling her Mina. He'd also had to explicitly explain that he'd not been favouring Kyoka over her at all, or at least not on purpose.

Kyoka looked at him with a smirk. "Nothing. We bought all the stuff we'd need yesterday evening, so we could have a date with you today."

Izuku blinked, just realising that neither of them had brought their lists. That must have been why. "Um...okay. Well..." He glanced down at his own list. "I'm gonna need-"

Mina grabbed the list out of his hands. "You don't need anything either! We bought all the stuff you'd need too! Even clothes and stuff!"

Izuku could only stare at them. "How... How did you know what I'd need? How do you know my measurements? Just...how?"

Mina and Kyoka both looked away, their faces burning. "I-Idiot! You don't need to know that!" Jiro said quickly.

"I really think I do need to-"

Mina fought down her blush and pushed him forwards. "Just never mind all that! Let's go!"

Izuku smiled softly. "So where are we going for five hours?" He chuckled, as the two walked either side of him.

Mina jumped in a circle around him. "First we're going clothes shopping!"

Jiro nodded. "Then we got three tickets for a movie at one. It'll end at twenty past three, I'm pretty sure."

"Then we'll go to the arcade until four!"

"Then just chill about for an hour."

Izuku blinked. It seemed that that was all he could do every time they spoke. "...Wow. You guys really planned this meticulously."

Mina nodded cheerfully. "Yep! We were facetiming and planning until like two in the morning!" She laughed, waving to a baby that was staring at her pinkness.

Kyoka smiled. "We only stopped when Mina fell asleep on top of her phone."

"I did not!"

"I screen recorded it."

"Izu-kun, Kyoka's being mean to me!"

Izuku could only laugh. "You shouldn't have let her get evidence, then." He chuckled. Then he realised something. "Wait, if you guys got everything yesterday -and I'm still scared about that- what are we shopping for clothes for?"

"It's painfully obvious that you don't get out much. For fun, obviously!" Mina giggled, poking the boy in the side. "Plus, you need some shirts that don't have the kanji for other clothes on them. You need to up your fashion game, mister!"

"Hey!" Izuku protested. He liked his shirts. Looking down, he saw that the shirt of today had the kanji for 'dress shirt' on it. "My shirts are cool!"

"They are not!" Kyoka said, trying to smother her laughter with her hand. "After you left my place, my parents laughed for ten minutes straight because your shirt had 'bedsheets' written on it!"

"See! They make people laugh!" Izuku said. "Anyway, it's not as if you guys are...any...better..." His voice trailed off as he took a good look at what the two were wearing for the first time that day.

Kyoka had a light purple halter top on that showed her skin very nicely, and a pair of neat black denim short shorts that hugged her rear, finely showcasing that the girl could definitely not be called flat in all areas. Finishing off the look were a pair of dark purple and black sneakers, and thin fishnets that drew attention to her slender legs.

Mina on the other hand was wearing a black crop top, with the word 'Pinky' scrawled in pink across it. Her handbag was slung with the strap pressing between the middle of her boobs, accentuating her bust even further. She was also rocking the short shorts look, her thighs smothering Izuku's mind with some very inappropriate thoughts.

Izuku snapped his head away, his entire face going bright red. "W-Whatever... Let's just go, already..."

Mina and Kyoka grinned at each other and fist bumped. Mission accomplished: Get Izuku to go clothes shopping! Side objective accomplished: Visibly arouse Izuku with your clothing choice!

Five minutes later, they entered a men's clothing store, the two girls looking around eagerly while Izuku just shook his head in defeat. They dragged him through the store, picking up different items of clothing for him to try as they went -Again, how the hell did they get my measurements?!- until they reached the dressing rooms.

"Well?" Mina said, hopping on her toes in excitement. "Go on, try these!"

Jiro handed him a shirt and pair of trousers, pushing him forwards until he realised resistance was futile and walked into the dressing rooms of his own volition. He looked at the clothes they'd given him: a pair of black chinos and a short sleeved button up muscle shirt that matched his hair. "Well, here goes, I guess."

When he stepped back out in front of the girls, they stared at him in shock.

"Are you okay?"

Kyoka blinked. "Y-Yeah, it's just..."

Suddenly, the two girls had materialised their phones in their hands and were taking what must've been hundreds of pictures. Unknown to them, though, every female close by that had seen the trio enter the shop and followed them had the same idea.

Mina smiled brightly, unable to take the dusting of lilac off of her cheeks at seeing her boyfriend look so stylish. "Go on, get the next one!"

"Sure..." Izuku sighed, turning and walking back into the stall at her behest. This is pointless. It's not as if I'm actually gonna get anything...


Half an hour later, Izuku walked out, holding about seven bags in each hand. Jiro and Ashido smiled happily. They'd paid for it, but how could they not have? When basically everything he'd tried on had turned them into miniature waterfalls, it was a no brainer to buy it all. They were already planning how to melt all his current wardrobe choices.

Izuku looked helplessly at all of his new clothes. They'd even got him a few shoes, but he'd insisted that they all be red high tops at least. "I'll just...go and drop these home, then." He sighed. Sprinting home, he dropped his bags on his bed and silently apologised to his kanji shirts, all lined up in his closet.

He got back within five seconds, not having tried to go particularly fast. "Thanks, I guess. But we've still got like half an hour left before the movie?" He said, giving them one of his rare genuine smiles. Mina and Kyoka's hearts immediately melted, as did all of the females who were still stalking them in the distance.

Mina smiled. "Now it's our turn to go clothes shopping!" She cheered.

Izuku had to breathe slowly to avoid getting flustered. "You...won't actually be trying anything on, right?" He said slowly.

Kyoka inserted her jack right at his funny bone and jarred it with sound, making Izuku wince. "Of course we'll be trying stuff on, dumbass." The purple haired girl said with a smile as the trio set off.

Mina had her thumb and forefinger on her chin as she thought. "Oh yeah! Apparently a new store opened up, one for really fancy dresses! Like, Yaomomo level fancy! We'll need them for I-Island!"

Imagining the two girls parading in front of him in the revealing dresses you would see in ballrooms, Izuku wondered if he might have to find a store that sold ice. At this rate, he'd have to pour it down his pants to keep himself calm.


Twenty minutes later, after many cheers from Mina, numerous protests from Jiro, and Izuku actually drowning his dick in ice at one point, the three walked out of the dress shop, Midoriya having bought his girlfriends their two favourite outfits out of the ones they'd tried on. He ran over to Jiro's house and dropped her dresses there, then did the same for Mina when she explained where her house was.

Mina then checked her phone. "Crap! We need to hurry if we're going to be there in time for the movie!" She squealed, then started running to the cinema, which was at the other end of the mall. Jiro just rolled her eyes and looked up at Izuku.

"I think she forgot who her boyfriend is." The rocker girl chuckled, and Izuku's face broke out into one of his regular smirks as he nodded agreement. Suddenly, he picked Kyoka up and plopped her sitting down on his shoulders, desperately trying to ignore the basically bare legs right beside his face.

"IZZY!" Jiro squealed, pounding on his head with her fists, her cheeks red. "Put me down!"

"No can do, Kyo-chan." Izuku said, just managing to retain his composure. "Now, let's see how long it takes Mina to realise her boyfriend has super speed."

Jiro, her face still red at Izuku's actions and the fact that they were in public, pouted. "Fine..." She said, her hands playing with the green hair in front of her abdomen as they watched Mina. The pink girl had run about a quarter of the length of the mall, before stopping and suddenly turning around as she came to the realisation they'd been waiting for. In her moment of confusion when she didn't see Jiro or Midoriya, Izuku sprinted forwards in the blink of an eye.

Running so fast it looked like everyone was frozen, Izuku had to reach his right hand up and place it on Kyoka's neck, both to stop her from getting left behind midair and also to prevent whiplash. As he reached Mina, he used his left arm and hooked it behind her knees, gathering her up in a sort of one armed bridal carry.

When he stopped running, both girls blinked in shock. To Jiro, it looked like they'd teleported over to the cinema, and somehow picked up Mina on the way, while to Mina herself, she'd turned around to look for Kyoka and Izuku and somehow ended up in front of her destination, nestled into her boyfriend's chest. Ah, well. She wasn't complaining.

Jiro jumped down, her head spinning slightly. "...Wow. How do you control yourself, going so fast?"

Izuku shrugged. "I guess my brain functions and eyes sped up as well. By the way, what movie are we watching?"

Kyoka rolled her eyes with a smile. "It took us so long to decide." She said. "So you'd better not complain. What type of movies do you even like, anyway?"

Izuku scratched his head, thinking. "I'm more of an anime watcher to be honest. Although I did watch a few of the classics from the pre-Quirk era with my mom when I was younger."

Mina nodded in understanding. "Cool! So, I wanted to watch a sci-fi or horror film!"

Jiro shivered. "I shot down the horror option immediately. Mina tried to argue with me for a whole hour on it, but hell no." She said, folding her arms as Mina collected their tickets.

Ashido pouted. "You're so no fun. Izu-kun, do you like horror?"

Midoriya shrugged. "Never really tried it."

Kyoka shook her head. "You'll hate it. Anyway, so Mina wanted sci-fi, and I just wanted something with good music." She said as Izuku bought them all popcorn and drinks.

"So we picked...Star Wars!" Mina cheered, looking at Izuku expectantly.

The green haired boy stared at her for a second. "Uh... Is there a hidden meaning in this that is meant to make me surprised? I've watched Star Wars. It was good."

"No..." Mina pouted, pinching the bridge of her nose as they walked towards their screen room. "It's that I worked together with Kyoka!"

Izuku rolled his eyes. "You should have been doing that already." But then he ruffled her hair. "But good. It makes me happy to see you guys getting along. Sometimes I feel like you would have been better friends if I hadn't been in the way..."

Both girls simultaneously slapped him over the head. "Don't talk like that." Jiro scolded him as they entered their theatre.

"Yeah!" Mina agreed, hushing her voice as they chose their seats in the relative darkness. The ads were still playing on the screen, making the two girls relieved that they weren't late. "Our lives are like, fifty times better with you in them!"

Izuku shrugged, looking around. "Place is empty. That's pretty unusual, I wonder why." He said, getting comfy in his seat. Jiro sat on his right, with Ashido on his left.

The girls looked at each other, then decided not to tell him that they'd gotten Momo to buy every single other seat in the theatre to make sure they had Izuku all to themselves. Honestly, it still scared them how the ponytailed girl had done so with as much concern for her funds as one has when buying a lollipop.

"Yeah, weird."

"What a coincidence!"

Izuku smirked as the opening crawl of Revenge of the Sith started to slide up the screen. Yeah, they're hiding something. Oh well, who cares.


Ten minutes into the movie, Izuku had almost finished his popcorn. Mina looked at him, then stole his box. "I'll give it back later, so you still have some to eat at the end. Honestly, you eat so quick!"

Noticing the exchange, Kyoka proceeded to share her popcorn with him for a few minutes, until Mina unexpectedly reached around Izuku's back without his notice and pinched her. She wanted to continue sharing, maybe even put some straight into his mouth, if she dared to build up the courage to, but when she saw Mina's hand shooting over, she quickly left her boyfriend popcornless.

Izuku huffed. This is bullying. He watched the movie for another twenty minutes, happily quoting memes, until he had an idea. Seeing that his popcorn was on the other side of Mina, he slowly snaked his arm behind her neck as she leaned forward, curling his hand towards the box-

Mina noticed his arm. "Oh, Izu, if you wanted to put your arm around me, there's no need to be so tentative!" She said happily, raising the armrest and leaning into him while pulling his arm tight around her.

Izuku spoke without thinking. "Nah, I was reaching for the popcorn."

Mina's eye twitched, and then she plopped both Izuku's and her own popcorn box in the boy's lap, before turning away and watching the movie intently with a half scowl, half pout, fixed on her face.

...Although it didn't go unnoticed that Izuku ignored the popcorn and made no attempt to remove his arm.

Five minutes later, she couldn't keep it up any longer and burrowed further into his side with a blinding smile. "Thanks, Izu-kun."

Kyoka, watching the two, just smiled serenely, raised her armrest and leaned her head on Izuku's other shoulder, and they continued to watch Obi Wan being a badass, cuddling each other. All three of them had the same thought.

I wish this never ends.


After the movie, they stepped back out in the mall, stretching and squinting at the bright environment around them after the relative darkness of the cinema. Izuku looked at the two girls on either side of him. "What was next? The arcade?"

"Yep!" Mina cheered. "Get ready to be destroyed! Prepare to be annihilated!"

Izuku chuckled, as did Kyoka. "We're preparing, we're preparing."

Jiro did indeed get annihilated by both of them, rolling her eyes as she tried to figure out the controls, but Mina found defeating Izuku a much harder job than expected.

After being thrashed several times at the same racing game, Mina wailed in despair. "How is this possible? I beat my brother every day at these games! And he's won national game competitions!"

Izuku shrugged. "Yeah, well when you play every night against Da-" He quickly slapped his hand over his mouth.

Mina looked at him weirdly. "Against...?"

Izuku threw the exact same look back at her. "What are you talking about?"

"You said something!" Mina complained. "Finish it!"

"Huh?" Izuku chuckled. "You must be mistaken."

Mina pushed him gently, then her eyes lot up as they focused in on something. Sprinting over to it, she gave Kyoka and Izuku a challenging look. "Dance Dance Revolution! There's no way you can beat me at this!"

Jiro shook her head. "I'm not even going to try."

Izuku, on the other hand, was always up for a good challenge. "How does it work? I just step on the arrows when it tells me to?"

"Yep! It's a classic!" Mina cheered, striking a pose. "Now, difficulty nineteen out of twenty..."

Izuku smirked. "I won't lose, you know."

Mina poked his cheek as the music started up. "We'll see where all that cockiness goes by the end of the game, Izu-kun~"

As it turned out, they were evenly matched. Mina had a completely flawless run, even adding in one handed handstands and flashy twirls for no reason. Izuku just stood and stuck his feet out to each arrow at super speed, getting the timing exactly right for every single one. Even when it switched to doubles, it posed no trouble for the boy.

As Mina entered their names at the top of the highscore board, she looked happily over at Izuku. "I'm having so much fun, I don't even care that I didn't win!" She giggled, skipping over and pressing a kiss to the boy's cheek.

Izuku didn't move for a few seconds, quickly allowing his brain to reboot. They'd already been on a date, but neither of the girls had actually kissed him or anything, and vice versa. So it was understandable when he froze, but the two girls just rolled their eyes.

Mina took the boy's hand, skipping along as she dragged him out of the arcade, Kyoka quietly catching his other hand and holding it as they went. "You know Izu-kun, we'd be more than fine if you ever wanted to kiss us~" The link girl teased, although she was half serious.

Izuku glanced at her in shock, then at Jiro. The rocker girl blushed and nodded, causing him to go into even further shock. A girl wants me to kiss her! No, two of them do! What do I do? What if she's just joking, and I make a fool of myself?

The boy eventually ended up going with the ol' classic.

Changing the topic.

"Wow, that's a cool music store." He said nonchalantly, and both girls rolled their eyes in exasperation.

Take the hint already! How can you be so smart yet so dense?!

But then Jiro realised he'd said music store, and her head snapped up. "Where?"

Izuku used the hand holding hers to point at a store across from them, which seemed to be mostly focused on guitars. She noticed it, but was too busy enjoying the way Izuku's hand gripped hers to pay much attention.

She elongated her jacks and spiralled them down, wrapping around her and Izuku's arms and squeezing them together softly as she leaned her head on the green haired boy's shoulder. Izuku noticed and smiled gently at her. "Don't you want to go? I thought you wanted a new bass?"

Mina looked across Izuku's chest at the girl. "Hm? Kyoka, you play instruments?" She asked, not having known about that. She'd known the rocker cane from a musical family, but she didn't realise Jiro was good at music in her own right.

Jiro blushed. "Not much, I just know the basics."

Izuku snickered. "Basics my ass. She could easily get a career in the music industry." He said with a shrug.

"Really?!"

"No! How would you even know, Izzy? I've never played for you or anything." Kyoka protested.

Izuku shrugged. "Your dad said so. And given how amazing you are in general, of course I'd believe him."

Jiro's cheeks went red as she stared at the floor. Izuku would just randomly do this, hit them with a rare compliment out of nowhere that took them by surprise. "Whatever... Listen, I don't need anything right now. Let's just go hang out somewhere." She said quickly, and shrugging, they walked past the music shop and continued on their way.

"Look!" Mina cheered, drawing their attention. "A game store! Let's go check out what they've got!"

She ran over to the storefront, Jiro walking after her a bit more slowly. Izuku followed them, but briefly sensed something wrong and stopped, looking from side to side threateningly.

Kyoka turned around. "You good, Izzy?"

"Yeah, it's nothing. Let's go."


Things had not been going Tomura Shigaraki's way as of recent.

First, that useless prick Giran had brought him some even more useless pricks, and all they were talking about was that annoying bastard Stain.

He'd tried to kill them, but no. Kurogiri just had to stop him, going into 'responsible parent' mode and trying to give him advice. Honestly, the fucker was just a Nomu. Where did he get off lecturing Tomura?

He'd then stormed out of the base. That had been yesterday evening. Too angry to return to the base, he'd just decayed the lock on someone's car and slept in there instead. The owner had sure gotten a shock when he got into his car to go to work and saw a Villain blearily waking up and irritably rubbing his eyes in the backseat, but as one of Tomura's favourite lines from a pre-Quirk era movie aptly stated;

Dead men tell no tales.

That had been the highlight of the Villain's week, which really wasn't saying much when he reflected on how shitty it had been. Looking around for something to occupy his time, he'd strolled into a nearby mall, and had been walking around it all day. Then, glancing at the arcade, he struck gold.

It was that pink bitch he'd come so close to disintegrating back when they'd attacked the USJ. She was walking out, along with some girl with purple hair and earphone jacks dangling from her earlobes -had she been at the USJ? Shigaraki honestly couldn't remember- and the green haired prick whop had thrown such a major wrench in the Villain's plans.

Nah, never mind a wrench, he'd thrown a whole road roller at the plan. That's how badly he'd destroyed them.

Anyway, a feral grin grew on Tomura's face, hidden in the shade of his hood. I'll take the two girls hostage and force that Izuku Midoriya to talk to me. Maybe he can help me get to the bottom of why nothing's going my way right now, kekeke.

Shigaraki shadowed the trio for a few steps, waiting until the two girls went slightly ahead of their partner, looking at Shigaraki's favourite store (how dare they sully it with their 'Heroic' gazes). That's when he stepped forwards, starting to pull his hands out of his hoodie front pocket. He'd place four fingers on each of their necks, then turn around to face Izuku.

But just as he took the first step forwards, he saw Izuku sense something was wrong and glare from side to side. As the threatening look settled on Shigaraki, even for the fraction of a second it was there for, the Villain started feeling stuff all over his body. It was as if time slowed down from his perspective, as his eyes widened under the hood for some unknown reason.

Why was he sweating so hard? His skin hadn't been this moisturised since he was about ten years old, when Kurogiri covered him in a mountain of Vaseline to try and stop him from looking like a decaying zombie.

Why couldn't he move his legs? He couldn't even begin to take the next step forwards.

And his hands! They were clenched into tight fists, shaking and sweating like the rest of his body.

Was this...

Fear?

All the Villain could do under Izuku's gaze was stop and look away at a nearby shop, standing still. Not still enough to be noticed as unusual, but just to seem as if he was casually checking something in the shop window out. His heart beat wildly, until-

"You good, Izzy?"

"Yeah, it's nothing. Let's go."

Shigaraki released the breath he'd been holding as the trio passed on, and in his anger, he clenched his fists so hard that his hands drew blood.

Father... I need Father...

He turned and started to make his way towards the League of Villains' base, swearing profusely under his breath.

Half an hour later, Tomura Shigaraki, having gained no resolve whatsoever, reached his destination, only to find out that his position as leader of the League of Villains had been usurped by Katsuki Bakugo.

Yeah, things had definitely not been going Tomura Shigaraki's way.


With ten minutes to go until they were due to meet up with the rest of the class, Izuku looked at the girls as the three strolled out of the games store. "So, where to now?"

Mina had no clue, simply shrugging as she jumped around. She'd started to get drowsy after being so excited earlier on, so she had climbed on Izuku's back while they walked around. After the brief rest. she was fully recharged and ready for more fun.

Kyoka didn't know either. "Dunno. Let's just go and chill on that bench over there." The purple haired girl said, one of her jacks pointing off to the side. The trio, with nothing else to do, went over and sat down. Each girl laid their head on the boy's shoulder after giving him a soft kiss to the cheek. Izuku's brain short circuited, only just managing to understand what they were saying.

"I really enjoyed today, Izzy."

"Really?"

"Of course we did! Although I'm kinda sad you still don't have a nickname for me."

Izuku had been thinking of one, but he hadn't been sure if she would like it. He constantly thought that if he did something wrong, the girls might leave him. After all, he had no clue what had drawn them to him in the first place. But he decided to take the plunge anyway. "Well... How does Ashi-chan sound?"

Mina went totally silent and just stared at him, pulling her head up from his shoulder.

"..."

"..."

"..."

"...I'm sorry, I'll try and think of something el-"

"NO!" Mina squealed, burying her face in his shoulder and hugging him fiercely, hiding her tears of joy. "I love it so much! I had thought you didn't want to give me one, or you didn't like me as much, or it was a way of showing you liked Kyoka more, or-"

Izuku shook his head. "I'm sorry. When you said, you were jealous of Kyo-chan, I didn't realise it was that deep."

Mina softly poked him in the stomach. "D-Don't go blaming yourself, Izu-kun."

Jiro smiled. "Yeah. Today's been amazing."

The pink girl suddenly smiled deviously. "Yeah, it's been an amazing date. And you know what the boy is meant to do after such a good date, Izu-kun?"

Kyoka quickly caught on, although was still a bit hesitant. "Yeah, since you won't be dropping us off at home, you might need to do it here."

Izuku's brain was overheating. Girls are so confusing, there's no way they actually want me to... Surely not... But... Oh, I don't know. I need concrete proof, before I make a fool of myself or something. What was I thinking, getting a girlfriend, never mind two? I have no clue what I'm doing!

Mina put her hand on Izuku's chest. "So what do you think, hmm~?"

Izuku looked around indecisively, almost panicking. Then his eyes latched onto a clock, showing the time to be one minute to five.

"Would you look at the time! Everyone's probably waiting!

TAKE THE HINT AND KISS US, DUMBASS!


At five, Class 1-A met up to get something to eat, just as they'd planned. Shoji eventually ended up walking next to Izuku as they all looked for a good restaurant, and the hulking boy raised an eyebrow at him. "So how was your date?"

Izuku raised an eyebrow right back at him. "And how do you know about it? Even I didn't know about it until it started."

One of Shoji's hands went up to bashfully rub the back of his neck. "They...may have needed my help with some information gathering yesterday."

Izuku punched one of his biceps, immediately giving him a dead arm. "It was you who gave them my measurements!" He snickered. "Although, how did you know them, anyway?"

"I took them yesterday, after class."

"How? I didn't notice."

Shoji smirked under his mask, and instantaneously multiplied his arms until there were twenty four of them weaving around, a trick he'd taught himself for instant defence with Crust's help. "Can't watch the hands if there are too many hands to watch."

"I will slap you."

In a flash, Iida was beside the two. "I would kindly ask you to refrain from such a violent act, Midoriya!" The pompous teen belted out, his hands doing their usual chopping through the air. Izuku suddenly had an idea. Speeding away to a building site, he picked up a stack of seven bricks. He then sprinted back and placed the red masonry right under where Iida's hand would flash down.

And just as expected, the Class Rep's hand carved cleanly through all of them, the zealous boy not even realising the feat he'd performed as he tirelessly continued his tirade. Everyone muffled their laughs behind their hands, except Izuku who went to put the neatly split bricks back where they came from -he hoped nobody would notice- and Ojiro who stared at the bespectacled boy with stars in his eyes.

"I-Iida... You need to learn martial arts. Like, immediately. Such wasted potential up until now..."

The class laughed even harder, until Momo got their attention. "What about here?"

They all immediately stopped laughing. Jiro's eyes widened. "Yaomomo," She said wide eyed, using a nickname Mina had come with in class and that all of the girls had taken to using, "This is the type of restaurant I'd have to save up for a month just to buy a starter from."

Yaoyorozu looked at her innocently. "What do you mean?"

Sero was staring in awe. "I don't even know how you're supposed to act in one of these. I'd probably sneeze and get kicked out."

The rich girl rolled her eyes. "Oh, stop exaggerating, everyone. A meal for one here only costs about fifty thousand yen."

Uraraka choked on the air. "Fifty thousand?"

Izuku spoke up in a full class conversation for once. "Um, Yaoyorozu, I don't think you should just go and spend a million yen for the class like that."

Momo looked at him in genuine surprise. "What? But I can just use my secondary savings account, and have money to spare! It's no big deal. If it becomes a problem, I'll just ask Father to add another five million yen to my account!"

Long story short, Ochaco had to be taken to the hospital after she had heart failure.

It's hard to write fluffy stuff when you have no experience :(

I'm kidding. Well, not kidding about the experience thing, but like about being sad about it. Well, I'm kinda not kidding about that either, but-

Let's do an Izuku and change the subject.

OH MY LORD SANTA ERI IS SO FUCKING CUTE! Like no cap I want her as my sister. Her and Nezuko. And have you guys seen Horikoshi's full page sketch of Kyoka in her santa suit? My heart...

Also, Shoto's misunderstandings were the funniest ever. I just had to add one in here. I'm gonna try have as many as possible.

I know this chapter was meant to be this and the pool scene, but then I had a good idea, and this is already like 6k words without review replies. So next chapter will be the pool scene, and a fight scene. I'll let you guys try and figure out who'll be duking it out.

How do the rest of you guys feel about Setsuna? Because, putting review and PMs together, I've had 52 requests to add her to the relationship. If it's so popular, I might just turn it into a three girl harem.

By the way, does anybody have some good story suggestions for me? Like, any that are regularly updated and of a reasonable length? I don't mind any pairing.

PLEASE REVIEW!
