Speech: "Hey what is up."
Shouting: "OW MY GOD DAM TOE!"
Thinking: 'She looks pretty cute.'
Quirk notification: [Cutie! Right behind you!]
(Narrator POV)
Izuku felt exhausted, scratch that, after doing ninety squats with each leg, Izuku was certain he qualified for some sort of break, since Usagiyama had been training him ragged since 4am. The green haired teen did appreciate it, he knew it was for his dream, but there was an issue, Dating Sims, but to be more precise, Izuku HATED the quest aspect of his quirk.
'Why do I have to do every quest I see?' Mentally whined Izuku, currently stretching his legs out, having finished the muscles building aspect of their training, and moving onto the flexibility aspect of it.
[Just so you can see it again!]
[Quest completed: On time (continuous)!]
[Rewards: +2 relationship with Usagiyama:]
[Hidden reward for arrive 5 minutes early: +4 relationship with Usagiyama!]
"Come on brat, I've better things to be doing." Exasperatedly huffed Usagiyama, currently doing what Izuku was supposed to be doing, a full splits, which Usagiyama pulled off with practiced ease due to years of training.
"Isn't there something more my level?" Slowly asked Izuku, he enjoyed a challenge, cleaning the beach was a challenge, but All Might had made a plan to ease him into it, helping him build up all of his muscles with time. 'I won't be able to walk after that.' Bluntly noted Izuku, who was as flexible as a cracker, and he was fully aware of it, realizing that Usagiyama and All Might were opposites, Usagiyama rushed things but knew what she was doing, while All Might took his times and did it flawlessly.
"There isn't anything less than the noob stage." Dryly yawned Usagiyama, doing her best to hide a grin as she watched Izuku blanch, fully aware that Izuku wasn't experienced enough to do this, but he wanted to show off his fighting style during the Sports Festival, and she would make sure it would happen. 'The kid has got the potential to be a decent fighter, the issue is getting his fighting instincts into the swing of it.' Mentally noted Usagiyama, watching as Izuku slowly started spreading his legs apart, as the bunny girl got up and walked towards her student.
[Death by Snu Snu!]
His quirk was a pervert...
Minoru was a pervert...
Aizawa was emotional dead...
'The sad thing is, none of them are a lie.' Disappointedly realized Izuku, stiffening as he felt someone's hands on his shoulders, slowly making Izuku turn around before stopping, seeing Usagiyama's sports bra in his face, making his brain process the situation at the speed of a baby crawling. "What are you doing?" Confusedly asked Izuku, feeling the sand beneath his feet shift ever so slightly, before Usagiyama's hands pushed down on his shoulders, making Izuku's eyes widen in realization.
He was going to do the splits if he liked it or not.
Yet Izuku couldn't help but smile as he felt himself do the full splits, then the pain came, but Izuku still felt good about himself.
[Title unlocked! Masochist: You smile through the pain!]
"That is it brat, you'll be doing this until your flexible enough to kick as high as your head." Gleefully chuckled Usagiyama, as Izuku could only whimper in both fear and pain, fully aware that it would slowly get easier as time went on, but Izuku thought he would never get use to it.
"You're a sadist." Lowly mumbled Izuku, before he was pushed down even further, making Izuku's lip tremble in agony, that was Usagiyama's way of letting him know she heard him.
[You have gained +3 relationship with Usagiyama Rumi!]
(Time-skip)
Izuku didn't think there was anything better than having a warm shower, and removing all of the sand that had clung to his body, making each moment uncomfortable, but it was worth it for the utter bliss he was experiencing right now. Groaning as he stepped out of the shower, Izuku slowly rotated his arms, working out the stiffness in them, as the green haired dating sims protagonist started getting himself ready for U.A, fully aware of what he had to do this morning.
Have a shower, get himself ready for U.A, start breakfast for himself, since his mother had to go to work early and was already there, clean up after breakfast, and leave for U.A. Drying his damp hair, Izuku didn't bother trying to brush it, aware of the fact that his hair would look good regardless, which was a boon, since curly hair could be a nuisance.
Just as Izuku finished tying his tie properly, the teen could feel his stomach rumble in hunger, making Izuku roll his eyes in annoyance, fully aware of the fact he would have to cook himself breakfast, which he hadn't done in months, well before All Might's training regimen. Shaking his head at the thoughts, Izuku knew he had to do something simple, rice would have to suffice until he got to U.A early, and got himself something from the cafeteria.
[Izu-Kun! You can't get that chef title if you won't hurry up!]
'Fair point.' Mentally noted Izuku, which was totally reasonable from his quirk, since just owning the title would bolster his cooking skill in some degree, which Izuku knew would be useful in the future. "Rice and fish it is." Lowly mumbled Izuku, shaking his head from side to side one last time, before the green haired teen walked out of the bathroom, and made his way to the kitchen.
[So... how will you deal with Ibara?]
That made Izuku freeze for a second as he gathered all of the ingredients he would need, which wouldn't take long to prepare, as Izuku let his mind wander back to the events of yesterday, and the problems that had sprouted up, mainly the fact that a girl had a crush on him, people infiltrating U.A was another concern. A part of Izuku wanted to play the oblivious fool, just like many shonen anime protagonists, but unlike them, Izuku knew what his relationship was with each heroine, and couldn't play the fool because of it.
[Shiozaki Ibara: The faithful]
[Relationship: Her Angel (Stage 3): 0/300]
[Description: Having been raised in a religious family, Shiozaki lives a life of faith and belief, truly devoting herself to her religion, given it her heart, body, and soul... but now it seems as if she has found something new to cherish. Is it possible she'll devote her heart, body, and soul to you?]
A small part of Izuku was baffled, a girl had a crush on him... a GIRL had a CRUSH on HIM! Another part of Izuku wanted to grin for joy at the thoughts of a girl having a crush on him, which made the preparations for breakfast even better, then Izuku felt something shift ever so slightly inside of him, and Izuku knew Dating Sims was involved.
Ones and zeroes briefly flashed across Izuku's vision, originating from the food in front of him, making Izuku stare at the food he was about to cook, stiff as a board as the ones and zeroes flew off of the food and into him. Information rushed to Izuku's head, forcing a hiss from Izuku's mouth, as information about the food in front of him came to his mind, the nutritional values and the ideal way of cooking it!
What had just happened?
[Congratulations! You have unlocked the skill system!]
[Achievement unlocked! First skill: learn your first skill!]
[Rewards: +6 intelligence!]
[Cooking]
[Level: 1/10]
[Description: The arts of cooking can do wonders for people, from making people smile, to replenish lost energy, the cooking produced can help form strong impressions the chef!]
"WHAT!" Loudly shouted Izuku, his face ghostly pale from the sudden influx of information, as the teen was trying to figure out what was happening in front of him. "Dating Sims, what is happening?" Softly asked Izuku, robotically placing all of the ingredients somewhere safe, as Izuku could feel a mental meltdown coming.
[One second Izu-Kun, I'm trying to figure it out as well, as far as I was concerned we had already discussed everything I could do, without assimilating the quirks within One For All.]
It was oddly comforting for Izuku, to know his quirk was as clueless as he was about the whole situation, which also meant neither of them knew what brought on the sudden manifestation of skills, or what skills he could learn.
[Ah! Izu-Kun! I think I know what skills are now! Skills in this case measures your experience in the subject/action/hobby, and can show you how good you are at it! Level 1 is a beginner, with Level 4 being the average for everyone across the world, Levels 7 to 9 mean you are exceptionally talented at it, and Level 10 means that you are the best at it in the world!]
[With Skills, it looks like they're related to hobbies and household chores at the moment, so it means you're gonna learn how to be a magnificent househusband in a few years...]
So Dating Sims was unintentionally training him to be the number one househusband... at least that was something to fall back on if the hero life style ever became too much for him.
Izuku stared at his skill, one that was new and untrained, and a part of Izuku wanted to do something that everyone did when anyone got a skill in a video game, grind it until it maxed out. The green haired teen wasn't a fool, he was fully aware that the skill would take months, possibly years to max out, but Izuku was going to do it one way or another.
'I'm going have to buy a few cookbooks then. That also means I'll have to wake up before my mother and cook breakfast for us.' Excitedly thought Izuku, grinning at the thoughts of grinding a skill, which should level up somewhat quickly, since it was an incredibly low level, meaning Izuku should get it to level 4 in a few weeks of practice.
[Izu-Kun, I don't like being that digital quirk living inside your body, but if you keep standing around doing nothing you'll be late.]
Dating Sims was so helpfully...
[No YoU'Re So HeLpFuL.]
(Time-skip)
Izuku grimaced, the aftertaste of his breakfast lingered in his mouth, which was frankly the most horrible thing he had ever eaten, and Izuku regretted the fact he had brought his own, home cooked lunch, which would taste as bad as his breakfast did. Moping as he walked into class, Izuku was feeling down on his luck, since he had a horrible lunch he couldn't throw away, his quirk had went back on its deal for not using sarcasm, and Bakugo was behind him.
"Move it, Deku." Lowly sneered Bakugo, a faint shiver racing up Izuku's spine, fully aware of the fact that Bakugo had no problem from attacking someone from behind, and that worried Izuku immensely.
[He's lonely.]
Izuku blinked at the screen that had popped up in front of him, making the green haired dating sims protagonist step out of the way in response, as Bakugo continued walking forward and sneered at Izuku as he passed, before reaching for the door. Those words were something Izuku had never expected to be associated with Bakugo, who always acted like he was better than everyone, which was unfortunately somewhat true in most cases.
'Why?' Confusedly asked Izuku, as emerald green eyes stared at the blond haired bully, while he yanked open the door and stomped inside, scowling at everyone else who was early.
[Humans are social creatures by nature, and at the moment his only company would be his parents, if he had a good relationship with them, but he is basically an outcast at school at the moment, since he is seen as violent and cruel. In all honesty Izu-Kun, I can see why he's so upset, think about it, a fresh start for him to have true friends, only for those potential friends to gravitate away from you.]
Bakugo Katsuki, the former friend turned bully was lonely, that unfortunately explained a lot to Izuku, since Bakugo had been more aggressive recently, meaning that was his way of covering up his loneliness. Time seemed to slow down as Bakugo took his first step into 1-A, Izuku wanted to be a hero, that meant he had to save people, no matter what sort of issue it was, Izuku would save them.
[A) *Let Bakugo walk by*]
[B) You know I have always looked up to you.]
[C) You're a bitch, you know that?]
[Izu-Kun, I've a feeling each of these choices will permanently effect your relationship with Bakugo.]
'Okay, so I can potentially help Bakugo.' Grimly realized Izuku, a petty part of him wanted Bakugo to walk by and experience what he felt for a decade of his life, but the last time Izuku tried helping Bakugo, his friend turned into his bully, that meant Izuku had to speak Bakugo's language. "You're a bitch, you know that?" Calmly asked Izuku, releasing his breath that he had been holding in, as Bakugo froze up, registering the words Izuku had spoken, while Izuku was doing his best not to panic.
"Oh yeah? At least I've been putting in the effort for my dream since day one, and not relying on dumb luck." Lowly growled Bakugo, twisting on his heels so he could face Izuku, while partially being in the classroom, as Izuku's mind was trying to find a solution for the mess he was currently in.
"How about we make a bet." Stiffly spoke Izuku, he could feel the flames of One For All churn within him, as both of his quirks could sense what he was doing, and if Izuku wanted to succeed, he would have to break his limits many times over.
"Oh? That's quite out of character of you." Dryly snorted Bakugo, rolling his eyes in amusement at Izuku's antics, yet a part of him was curious about where Izuku was going with this. "I'll do you the favor and hear you out." Quietly hissed Bakugo, staring down Izuku as the classroom went silent, no doubt whoever was in there could hear them talking.
"The Sports Festival, the third stage is always a one on one fight, sometimes a two on two. We both make it to the third stage and fight... if I win... you have to be my friend." Slowly informed Izuku, chewing on the inside of his cheek as he saw Bakugo actually humor the idea, no doubt thinking he would win it, and there was that possibility. "Now, what do you want if you win?" Professionally inquired Izuku, almost gulping as Bakugo's eyes lit up in glee at an idea, which worried Izuku immensely.
"When I win, you have to drop out of U.A, and give up your dream of being a hero." Condescendingly stated Bakugo, extending his right hand out for Izuku to shake it, and with that, Izuku made his deal with the explosive gremlin.
"Deal." Simply accepted Izuku, shaking Bakugo's hand, his mind racing a mile a second, trying to come up with counters and strategies for Bakugo, who would be an incredibly though opponent.
With that, Bakugo turned around and walked away from Izuku, leaving the door open for Izuku, which was actually a somewhat kind gesture from the blond, who apparently respected Izuku a little bit more than he once had. Now all Izuku had to do was win a fight against Bakugo, who had been training for years to be a hero, it sounded simple enough.
[Danger Sense assimilation is at 43%, if you get into enough fights and use it enough, you might have full use of the quirk before the Sports Festival, and there is the possibles that I could start assimilating another quirk before then.]
[Due to your coolness, you have received +8 relationship with Tokage Setsuna!]
"BRO! THAT WAS SO MANLY!" Excitedly cheered Eijiro, grinning as Izuku stepped through the door, as Izuku took a brief look at who was present in the class.
There was Bakugo, Eijiro, 'surprisingly' Tokage, Tenya, Momo, Todoroki, Tokoyami, Kodai, and Shiozaki, but what truly caught Izuku's attention was what was on his desk, a bento box! A tear gathered in Izuku's left eye, finally there was an excuse not to eat his horrible lunch, that may or may not accidentally poison the person who ate it.
"That was on your desk when I arrive, which was baffling since I was the first one here." Helpfully clarified Tenya, who had his lips pursed as Izuku walked by, having heard the deal his friend had made with Bakugo, which left Izuku in a fairly tight spot. 'In terms of raw power, Izuku has more than Bakugo, but Izuku can't use all of it safely, only a meager 5%, which certainly helps him, but doesn't put him on the level Bakugo is.' Logically noted Tenya, watching with a slight smile growing on his face, as Izuku looked so happy at the bento box on his desk.
"Whoever made this, thank you." Emotionally huffed Izuku, his eyes watering at the fact he didn't have to eat his horrible lunch, while the green haired teen sat at his desk, staring at the bento box in wonder. "You're truly a gift to humanity." Softly mumbled Izuku, he wasn't sure if anyone could hear him at all, but he didn't care, Izuku had suffered too much this morning already.
[She loves you kind words! +4 relationship with Ibara!]
Maybe a girl having a crush on him wasn't so bad after all?
"Problem child, go to the support department. Your outfit has been dubbed unsafe for work, since it's made of latex and doesn't offer the minimum amount of protection." Dryly ordered Aizawa, making everyone perk up, trying to find the teacher, before the man in question poked his head up from beneath the teacher's desk, looking as tired as ever.
Izuku couldn't get the grin off of his face as he stood up, fully aware that this would take a while to sort out, but things were finally going his was today, which was appropriated, since Izuku's legs were killing him, his food sucked, and there is a possibility he had to leave U.A if he lost to Bakugo, but he got a bento box. It was balanced, as all things should be.
(Time-skip)
The door exploded off its hinges...
A shiver raced down Izuku's spine as he felt a warm breeze hit his face, a heroine, who he had met was approaching him, was worried Izuku ever so slightly was the vast amounts of smoke and fire flying out of the support department. Izuku's mind was racing as he tired figuring out what was happening, before something slammed into him, knowing Izuku onto his back, a moment before a particular large cloud of smoke could hit him in the face, as the teen's ears rang from the explosion.
'What just happened?' Confusedly thought Izuku, trying to process how a simple walk to the support department had turned into his narrowly avoiding being swatted into a wall by a door, which was confusing, but laying on the floor of U.A was surprisingly comfortable.
[Izu-Kun... that isn't a floor.]
Slowly blinking as he read the text message in front of him, Izuku hesitantly looked down, realizing that Dating Sims was correct, he was not laying on the floor of U.A, but instead he was draped across someone, more specifically one pink haired heroine, who had a thing for machines. Luckily Izuku wasn't in the cliche where they were kissing or where the male accidentally groped the girl, but it was still awkward since it looked as if Izuku had pinned her to the floor.
'Why didn't you alert me of the danger?!' Mentally screeched Izuku, his mind coming to a complete halt as Hatsume stared into his eyes, both of them trying to process what just happened.
[It wasn't like you were going to die, besides, it worked out, didn't?]
"My costume doesn't have the minimum amount of protection, so it needs an upgrade." Stiffly informed Izuku, leaping off of Hatsume with as much grace as a socially awkward fifteen year old boy could muster, which wasn't a lot in anyone's opinion. "You okay?" Concernedly asked Izuku, staring at Hatsume who was now grinning like a fool, which worried Izuku a lot more than the explosion had.
"What are we waiting for?! We gotta a baby to make!" Excitedly screeched Hatsume, getting off the ground with a fire in her eyes, as she got to her feet and dragged Izuku onto the smoking remains of the support that.
[She likes the language you speak! +12 relationship with Hatsume Mei!]
"BABIES!?" Confusedly shouted Izuku, his mind still a mess from what had happened, and Hatsume wasn't someone who really put much thought into anything else that wasn't a machine, so it wasn't surprising she had a 'few' odd habits.
"HATSUME!" Furiously howled someone else inside the Support department, making Izuku blanch as Hatsume threw herself at a computer that hadn't been destroyed in the explosion, while Izuku awkwardly looked at the other person in the room.
Power Loader, aka Maijima Higari, the man who looked as equally pissed as he was accepting of what had just happened, while he stared at Izuku, as Hatsume was happily typing on the computer, no doubt bringing his outfit's information up. What Izuku assumed to be the source of the explosion sparked up, making Izuku nervously step away from the potentially dangerous scraps of metal, that looked vaguely like a mech-suit.
"Hatsume, I as so close to throwing you out of U.A." Loudly grumbled Power Loader, holding two of his fingers so close together Izuku was sure they were touching, but who was he to judge a student's/teacher's odd friendship?
"Yeah, Yeah, now I'm busy thinking of what my newest baby for Izuku will look like!" Gleefully cackled Hatsume, easily dismissing her teacher without a second thought, with took a lot of courage, or she simply didn't care how she treated the man.
[These people are crazy.]
'Don't be mean Dating Sims.' Annoyedly thought Izuku, watching Hatsume bring up various blueprints that were stored on the computer, and Izuku even caught some of the older designs from noticeable Heroes, who had went to U.A. "Can I keep the same design?" Curiously asked Izuku, who admittedly had very little understanding in heroes' outfits, though knew when the outfit benefitted the heroes quirk in some way.
"As long as it isn't horrible..." Slowly answered Hatsume, trailing off as she did so before she hissed loudly, surprising Izuku by pulling up his records from the quirk apprehension test, his outfit design, and a brief description of One For All, which had been dubbed as Superpower on public records. "Okay, so you can't handle your full power yet, so broken bones are most certainly a thing. That means the outfit has to be incredibly durable, flexible, as well as having extra padding on the fists, elbows, shoulders, knees, as well as the head. How do you fight? Punching or kicking?" Inquisitively mumbled Hatsume, who was going onto a mumbling rant, which Izuku could understand perfectly!
"Kicking mainly, but I will still be using punches. If I need additional protection, I feel like my mask and bracer should be upgraded, and having my outfit made out of a tougher material." Rapidly answered Izuku, looking at Hatsume who looked up at Izuku, before grinning at the fact he was voicing his own thoughts.
[Oh! There's potential here! +2 relationship with Hatsume Mei!]
"That is doable, but how do you feel about support equipment? Since your quirk is merely an enhancement quirk, you might need additional equipment on the field in case of an emergency, like a burn wound, or you break your arm." Hurriedly questioned Hatsume, who was salivating at the thoughts of what Izuku could carry with him into a fight, within reason of course, but someone who had as much strength as Izuku did, he could carry a lot in.
"I'd need a place for emergency first aid at least, but what if... you can find a support item that can let me harness the air displacement my quirk causes." Interestedly realized Izuku, chewing on his lower lip as he realized that one day he would have more raw strength then All Might, and All Might was known for changing the weather with a single punch, which meant Izuku could do the same one day. 'Dating Sims, how much of One For All has to be used for air displacement?' Mentally questioned Izuku, the green haired teen was certain he could do the maths to figure it out, but that meant figuring out how much force he had behind his punch, and that meant he had to use all of One For All, meaning he'd break an arm.
[What am I too you? A super computer!? Izu-Kun, I am literally a dating simulator! Not a laptop, not a computer, nor a calculator, I can literally just do dating simulator things!]
Izuku slowly titled his head, since this was as closest thing Dating Sims had come to a freakout.
[I can help you cheat on a test, but I barely know anything about One For All besides the fact it is sentient, it contains multiple quirk factors, and is slowly doing something to us. But I'd say 30% maximum, now pay attention!]
"So what do you think?" Nervously asked Hatsume, unaware that Izuku was internally panicking again, since he had completely forgotten that he had been in a conversation with Hatsume, meaning he had zoned out for the entire thing.
[A) It sounds wonderful!]
[B) As long as you think it's safe, then I trust you.]
[C) Can you repeat that?]
[D) *Random choice*]
[Please note, this answer is extremely random and may offend the person in question!]
'Do you really think I'd choose option D?' Confusedly snorted Izuku, looking into Hatsume's eyes, which were sparkling with equal amounts of hope and worry, as Izuku's mind fluttered through the possible options, trying to come up with a vague idea of what Hatsume could have told him.
They weren't friends, Dating Sims confirmed that for sure, but they both had one thing in common, which let Izuku know that he could trust her in this, since he wanted to be a hero, and she wanted to create support gear for heroes, meaning they both wanted to protect people. Besides, Power Loader would do something if it was too crazy... right?
"It sounds wonderful." Uncertainly agreed Izuku, doing his best to mask his worry at what he was agreeing too, but a part of him knew that Hatsume would pull through for him.
"WOOOOW! MY FIRST TEST SUBJECT!" Excitedly hollered Hatsume, which immediately got rid of any of Izuku's hope in an instant. "Sorry, I just remembered something." Blatantly lied Hatsume, and that didn't do much to sooth Izuku's nerves, which were now close to being shot, despite it being so early in the day.
[She's ecstatic that you trust her! Congratulations, your relationship with Hatsume Mei has maxed out! It will now enter the second stage!]
[Hatsume Mei: The Inventor]
[Relationship: Test Subject (Stage 2): 0/100]
[Description: A unique girl, who has a passion for inventing machinery she calls her babies! With your help, you can help her realize what works and what doesn't for heroes! Who knows, maybe the other sort of sparks could fly from spending so much time together!]
Was it bad that Izuku regretted what he had just agreed too?
(Time-skip)
'All of my routes are so far pretty low, which is good... except for Shiozaki, who has a crush on me, but everyone else is still either in the low end of stage 2 or middle to high end of the stage 1, which isn't soothing at all.' Worriedly noted Izuku, still as still as a statue in the classroom, vaguely aware of the fact that Aizawa was out of his sleeping bag for once and was talking in his normal cheerful and energetic voice. 'The issue is avoiding the titles of our current relationship, as well as earning titles myself, since those can actually boost the relationship point I can get from a girl.' Wearily recalled Izuku, since by that standard, Mina was the most likely to be the next person to fall for him if he wasn't careful.
Dancing Buddies and Manly Bro, the former would just give him relationship points with one Ashido Mina every time he practiced dancing with her, which was something he desperately had to do if he wanted to have a chance in developing the basics of his fighting style before the Sports Festival, and Manly Bro simply double the amount of relationship he would get with Ashido. With as much stealth as he could muster, Izuku slowly looked over to Ashido, who immediately met his gaze and winked at him, forcing the green haired dating sims protagonist to look away.
'There was still three weeks before the Sports Festival, if I did go dancing everyday from now on with Ashido, that would mean I'd gain a minimum of 10 relationship points with Mina a day... possibly more.' Logically worked out Izuku, wanting to slam his head against the table as he realized that Ashido would definitely have a crush on him before the Sports Festival, and at least a third of the way through stage 3 as well.
"Problem child, catch!" Loudly barked Aizawa, something slamming into Izuku's head a split second later, earning a hiss of pain from Izuku, as the teen heard something hit his desk, making Izuku look down at his desk, before looking up at his teacher in bewilderment.
Did Aizawa actually throw his briefcase at him?!
"Now, any questions? No, good." Abruptly asked Aizawa, staring Tenya in the eyes as the teen's hand was clearly in the air, wanting to ask a question, that certainly wouldn't be answered by the emotionally tired teacher.
'How is he a qualified teacher?' Simultaneously thought everyone in 1-A, since their homeroom teacher had just thrown a briefcase at Izuku, then ignoring Tenya's question, while they all watched the man crawl into his sleeping bag.
"Am I the only one who wishes we had another teacher?" Wearily questioned Kaminari, who had more than a handful of people nodding along in agreement, while Izuku looked down at the briefcase, trying to figure out what was happening.
'I really wished I had my priorities straight.' Mentally mumbled Izuku, though a part of him was looking at the bigger picture, aka trying to avoid a real life love drama that would be centered around him, and Izuku had a feeling all of Japan would one day know about his issue if he wasn't careful.
One by one everyone stood up and started walking toward the wall in order to pick up their own briefcase, in order to pick up their hero outfit or the sports uniform, as Izuku clutched his own briefcase and followed Tenya. It was a tad odd, following Tenya and Momo, both of them were at the front of the group of students, leading them towards the locker rooms.
"This could be madness." Abruptly stated someone besides Izuku, making the teen blanch at the fact he didn't recognize who's voice it was, forcing Izuku to look towards his right, seeing his bird-headed classmate, Tokoyami Fumikage, who hadn't spoken to him beforehand.
[A) Madness is in the eyes of the beholder.]
[B) It could be interesting.]
[C) Who are you again?]
'Okay, the last option is out since I know his name is Tokoyami, and considering he gives off edge-lord vibes, I think the first option would be the best, if I wanted to be friends with him.' Logically assessed Izuku, going over Tokoyami's words, as everyone started falling into two groups, the guys and the girls, as they approached their specific locker room. "Madness is in the eyes of the beholder." Calmly selected Izuku, seeing Tokoyami's eyes widen ever so slightly at Izuku's response, and all Izuku could do was just hope that he had chosen the right one.
"You have a unique perspective Midoriya, I hope the madness does not reach you." Happily hummed Tokoyami, unaware that Izuku was more likely to be driven insane from his dating sims predicament, than any other madness inducing event.
Izuku watched as Tokoyami walked over to his normal spot in the locker room, as Izuku was trying to process what had just happened, before shrugging his shoulders, it was probably Tokoyami's way of asking if he was okay, or something like that. Walking over towards the bench Izuku had practically claimed, Izuku could feel Bakugo's eyes on him, as well as Todoroki's, fully aware that the former was watching him because of the deal they had made, while the latter's reason was unknown to Izuku.
[Oh gee, I wonder why the son of Endeavor is scouting out the competition, it's not like you can change the weather with a punch or that.]
[If it makes you feel better, in terms of overall raw power, I assume you have the most. I'm not sure about Todoroki or Bakugo, but I would assume that those two are relatively even to one another.]
"Yo dude." Lazily greeted Kaminari, already in his hero outfit, and was happily lazing about in the locker room, no doubt waiting for Kirishima to finish getting changed. "You sure it's smart to challenge Bakugo like that? Not doubting your abilities or that, but I'm fairly certain he wouldn't have an issue on keeping the deal of you win." Idly hummed Kaminari, Izuku could see the point, Bakugo did give off the vibes of being the sort of person who'd steal candy from a baby, but Izuku knew that wasn't the case, hopefully at least.
[A) I don't care if he doesn't, he'll know that I'm superior to him then.]
[B) That's If I win...]
[C) Don't worry, I've a plan for that.]
[D) *Random choice*]
'D.' Wearily confirmed Izuku, the green haired dating sims protagonist didn't like any of the options presented to him, the first was too arrogant for his liking, the second option made it seem as if he didn't have any confidence in himself, and the third option was a lie. "Did you know fir trees can grow in a person's lungs?" Curiously asked Izuku, regretting his choice immensely, there wasn't even any words to describe Izuku's current mood, as he stared dead eyed into Kaminari's.
"Okay... know I know now who not to go to in a stressful situation." Contently hummed Kaminari, offering Izuku a smile before walking off, oddly stiff as he did so.
'What was that!?' Bewilderedly shouted Izuku, glaring down at his sports uniform, removing his clothes as he did so, waiting for Dating Sims to give its answer.
[Izu-Kun, that was a random fact that was mildly disturbing. Plus, you chose that, I've no control over it.]
The fact that Dating Sims had no control over it at all made Izuku even more annoyed.
(Time-skip)
"Ah, so if I go to friends house, I take off my shoes and thank them." Shakily spoke Tsunotori in Japanese, making Izuku nod in glee, currently keeping his promise with Tsunotori to teach her some more Japanese words as well as some traditions. "Can I try that at your place?" Sweetly asked Tsunotori, giving Izuku her best puppy dog eyes, as the teen was trying to make the best of a poor situation.
[She thinks you're a man-slut! -1 relationship with Shiozaki Ibara...]
[Do something! Do you know how bad you'd look if a girl lost interest in you within a day?! Fairly bad!]
Currently Izuku was at the back of a bus, Tsunotori was on his left in her hero outfit, with Yanagi Reiko sitting on his right, slowly dozing off and occasionally letting her head bump off his right shoulder, only to jolt awake a second later. The current issue was the fact that Shiozaki was sitting just in front of them on the left, beside Komori, who was one of the few girls in the class who didn't view him as a potential boyfriend, as her fellow plant-based quirk user was staring disapprovingly at Izuku.
'Have you heard this expression before, a fir tree is more likely to grow in Endeavor's lungs, than for me to do something about Shiozaki's crush on me.' Saltily asked Izuku, who would be more than content to let Shiozaki go after someone else, especially Eijiro, who'd be a good choice. "I'll have to ask my mom, but I think it would be okay." Slowly responded Izuku, trying to get use to having two separate conversations going on at once, which was very disorienting.
"Yay! This is my first time going to a friends house here!" Happily cheered Tsunotori, her loud cheering actually managed to wake up Yanagi, and Aizawa surprisingly looked up from his seat, and nobody was surprised that the teacher had been trying to sleep again.
[She is head over heels for the idea! +15 relationship with Tsunotori Ponī!]
[No... wait! You just made that up! That's not fair! Please?]
'Didn't you break your promise not to use sarcasm? Why should I be fair?' Dryly asked Izuku, pursing his lips together, trying to deal with an excitable student, who wanted to learn about Japan, as well as a childish quirk, that knew more about relationships than Izuku himself did. 'Now that I think about it, would my mom be okay if I brought more friends over?' Curiously mused Izuku, who knew that his mother would take a shining to Eijiro immediately, as well as Ochaco if she was available.
[Invite Shiozaki! Do it! I'll tell you something worthwhile!]
Interesting... but was it worth the risk?
For all Izuku knew, Dating Sims had found out something else about One For All, like a hidden quirk buried beneath the inferno of flames that made up One For All, it could have been a quirk so dark and malicious that the previous users were actively forcing it down, so it wouldn't see the light of day again. On the other hand, it could be something utterly worthless, like giving him different skins to wear, like an rpg character.
'It's a gamble, but if I do lose, the consequence isn't that bad.' Wearily debated Izuku, pursing his lips as he looked over at his fellow green haired classmate, fully aware of the fact that their eyes were locked for a solid ten seconds. "Eijiro, Tenya, Ochaco, Momo, and Shiozaki, do you guys wanna come to my place tomorrow?" Curiously questioned Izuku, a blush crawling up his neck as everyone looked at him, fully aware of the fact that he looked so awkward doing so.
[They are over the moon for the offer! +3 relationship with Ochaco Uraraka and Yaoyorozu Momo!]
[Everyone is surprised by your directness! +5 Charm!]
"HELL YEAH! I'm down bro!" Happily cheered Eijiro, a small smile on everyone's face as they looked at the enthusiastic red head, who was smiling from ear to ear in glee.
"If your parents are okay with the agreement Mid... Izuku." Slowly accepted Tenya, while sending Izuku a nod of approval, clearly pleased with the invite over to a friend's house.
"Sorry Midoriya, I've something organized that day." Apologetically sighed Momo, who genuinely seemed sad at the fact she couldn't go over to Izuku's, but the green haired teen understood it.
There was also the Sports Festival to consider...
"Really?! That'd be great!" Excitedly agreed Ochaco, as Izuku turned his attention to the last person who he had asked, who was now randomly twitching, which was rather worrisome.
[Your kindness overwhelms her! +10 relationship with Shiozaki Ibara!]
'Now, what is it?' Curiously questioned Izuku, tuning out the world around him, in favor of waiting for his quirk to respond to him, which was taking an annoyingly long time.
[Okay Izu-Kun, I'll tell you something interesting, especially since you've invited Ochaco as well... apparently. not all my functions have booted up just yet, the ones that I've demonstrated at the moment are my most basic ones I've realized, but with time more of my functions will boot up. I'm not sure what I can actually do, but I do one of my latent abilities is an Item Shop, as well as the ability to earn 'points' to spend in the Item Shop.]
[If it makes you feel better, I think more functions are unlocked when you reach some sort of milestone, what they are, I do not know, but I can try and find something on them.]
Additional functions?
'It makes sense, Dating Sims is based off of a dating sims rpg, and after doing a lot of research on Dating Sims, I know that some dating simulators do have item shops that can increase relationship with a heroine. Then by that logic, I could potentially have an inventory system at well, but Dating Sims' effects my body, so I don't think it's possible for Dating Sims to be able to open a hole in space and store objects.' Logically broke apart Izuku, doing his best not to mumble, idly adjusting his gloves, which he had been allowed to wear at least, trying his best to think of any additional functions Dating Sims could possibly have.
That wasn't ever including the 'DLCS' Dating Sims could get from the other quirks inside of him...
Why did a sentient, sarcastic quirk have to be so complicated?
"What do think of that Brodoriya?" Interestedly shouted Eijiro, making Izuku slowly blink, realizing he had been ignoring everyone at this point, vaguely aware of the fact that Yanagi was asleep on his shoulder, as the green haired teen stared at his red headed friend in confusion. "Huh, the similarities between your quirk and All Might's." Rhetorically sighed Eijiro, causing everyone to look at the green haired dating sims protagonist, as he almost froze up, fully aware that now everyone was focused on Izuku, since they all knew Izuku's quirk was incredibly similar to All Might's quirk.
[A) Our quirks are incredible similar, but unlike All Might, I can enhance my sense of touch, to the point where I can feel air vibration, effectively giving me sixth sense, while All Might's quirk is purely strength enhancement and reaction time enhancement.]
[B) Weird...]
[C) If it makes you feel better, my quirk is so strong it destroys my body, All Might doesn't have that issue.]
[D) My quirk is stronger than All Might's.]
'Why are there so many quick time events?' Confusedly mulled Izuku, realizing that a few days ago, quick time events were somewhat less common, but today alone Izuku had experienced five of them alone, which was a lot more than normal. "If it makes you feel better, my quirk is so strong it destroys my body, All Might doesn't have that issue." Dryly responded Izuku, feeling Bakugo's eyes on him, he knew that Izuku's quirk had literally come out of nowhere, nobody in the Midoriya family had a strength enhancement quirk.
That was the downside of being so talkative about his family history on what quirks they all had...
"So you're saying your quirk is stronger than All Might's?" Lowly growled Bakugo, locking eyes with Izuku, as the green haired dating sims protagonist stared at his antagonist, and in that moment, nothing else truly mattered for either teen, except for winning their deal.
"Yes, it is, and it'll get stronger." Slowly answered Izuku, he could hear the cracklings of explosions from Bakugo's hands, as Izuku couldn't help but let a little bit of One For All course through him, fully aware of the small crackle of sparks escaping from his skin.
Only for the moment to be ruined when the bus came to a screeching halt, and neither of the two teens were prepared for being flung forward.
"Fuck!" Loudly shouted Bakugo, sliding out of his seat and onto the floor, since he hadn't been wearing his seat belt, while Izuku luckily dug his feet into the ground, managing to push himself back into his seat, before he could fall onto the floor like a fool.
"Eh?" Confusedly mumbled one of Izuku's classmates, as Izuku felt something plop onto his lap, freezing as if Todoroki had caught him in his ice, before slowly looking down.
Yanagi Reiko, someone who Izuku was only acquainted with, was laying on his lap, currently looking up at him, with confusion clear in her eyes, as well as a bit of pride, which was really confusing.
"You're thighs make for a nice lap pillow." Calmly stated Yanagi, not at all embarrassed from saying something like that aloud, but it did make Izuku's heart swell a little bit, since he had been working on his legs recently.
It was nice for someone to appreciate the fact, other than himself.
[She likes how nice your thighs are! +12 relationship with Yanagi Reiko!]
"Everyone, get off." Tiredly ordered Aizawa, rolling his eyes in sheer exasperation as he watched his students slowly shuffled get off the bus, fully aware of the fact that Izuku was going through an array of issues, both girl and Bakugo based issues.
It was awkward for Izuku to get up, fully aware that he had caused a scene on the bus, and couldn't help but shiver in both fear and nervousness, making the teen's whole body vibrate, only for something to click in the back of Izuku's mind a second later. Never in his life had he been so nervous, not when he faced off against the Slime Villain, Bakugo, the intruders, or even Shiozaki, and Izuku couldn't help but draw a horrible conclusion.
He wasn't nervous, Danger Sense was telling him something horrible was about to happen.
"Aizawa!" Loudly shouted Izuku, looking at Aizawa with pure terror in his eyes, as every other student had made their way over to the other teacher that was there, Thirteen, Izuku subconsciously realized, as Aizawa whipped around, staring at Izuku with concern.
[Izu-Kun! Calm down! You're subconsciously using One For All! Be careful before you hurt yourself!]
Izuku was vividly aware of the terror coursing through his body, as he couldn't help but sprint to the group, zooming past every other student, before skidding to a halt in front of everyone, Aizawa following suit a second later, capture scarves waving in the air. Everyone else was confused, weirded out and mildly scared of the bizarre behavior from their homeroom teacher, and green bean classmate, then the lights flickered.
Emerald green eyes focused on the center of the USJ, watching as a misty black portal, the same as misty intruder's, appear just in front of the fountain, and Izuku could feel the danger radiating from the other zones in the USJ, meaning the trip had gotten a whole lot more dangerous. Everyone was frozen as they watched people, villains and thugs, stream out of the portals, until the same people who had intruded into U.A appeared, and then the last villain appeared.
Danger Sense went wild...
Calling it a person, even with mutation quirks around, was a stretch, since Izuku knew that something was horribly wrong with that thing, the way it moved nearly robotically, not even a trace of free will or intelligence in its eyes. With Danger Sense, Izuku found himself lucky enough to pinpoint every large clump of danger, and there was easily a dozen of them in the plaza alone.
'Dating Sims... what are we going to do?' Hoarsely questioned Izuku, Aizawa's hand clamped onto the teen's shoulder, trying to push him backwards, away from the danger, only for the green haired dating sims protagonist to be rooted to the ground, due to his enhanced strength.
[This.]
"Problem Child, stay with Thirteen. Kaminari, contact the school. Thirteen, protect the students." Calmly ordered Aizawa, slowly placing his goggles onto his face, as his hair started rising up, fully aware of the fact that the blue haired ringleader was talking, but he was to far away to hear it.
Before the Hero flung himself down to the hoard of villains, not an ounce of fear or hesitation in his movements, the tiredness had faded, and what was left was a man who could beat anyone he set his mind too.
Whatever Dating Sims was doing, it better be quick...
"Izuku, what's going on?" Confusedly asked Ochaco, a tingle racing down Izuku's spine, slowly making Izuku turn around to face his classmates, gazing slightly above them as a portal formed above them.
[Congratulations! You have achieved 50 Aura! A skill shall be generated!]
[Intent]
[Level: 1/10]
[Description: You are able to manifest your willpower, which can be used to knockout people who have a weaker will than you, or temporarily freeze someone in place.]
"Villains have invaded the USJ." Gently answered Izuku, mustering all of his will as he closed his eyes, Danger Sense letting Izuku know that the mist villain was now blocking the entrance, keeping everyone trapped inside, and then Izuku used [Intent] with everything he had. 'I am going to save everyone.' Determinedly promised Izuku, his eyes burning with power as 5% of One For All flooded his body, and something inside Izuku shifted, as [Intent] made itself know to the world.
"Greetings, I am Kurogiri, from the League of Villains. Strange, All Might was supposed to be here, was he not?" Confusedly asked Kurogiri, before his whole misty body froze for just a second, not enough to do anything at all, but it was noticeable for those who paid enough attention. "Huh? I guess I shall deposit you all into a zone, and let the thugs pick you off." Idly hummed Kurogiri, his yellow eyes glowing with a twisted light in them, as his body started expanding again, getting ready to transport everyone here.
"Students! Get behind me!" Commandingly barked Thirteen, in her astronaut suit, as Izuku stared at the huge, misty form Kurogiri had taken, fully aware that his body should be somewhere in there, as Thirteen raised up her hands, and the small cups at the end of her fingers clicked upwards.
'The metal bracer!' Vividly recalled Izuku, activating [Intent] again, staring Kurogiri in his eyes, as the green haired dating sims protagonist's mind was running through various thoughts like a fool, trying to identify where the bracer could be, before realizing that he wouldn't have enough time. "Bakugo! There's a metal bracer in there! That's his weak point!" Loudly shouted Izuku, fully aware that Kurogiri had only frozen for a second, but that was enough time for Izuku to lift up his own right hand, and place his ring finger against his thumb.
One For All: 100!
"Don't tell me what to do! DEKU!" Furiously howled Bakugo, as an explosion launched the teen forward, just a moment before Izuku flicked his fingers with all of his might.
It was as if a tornado had formed indoors, as a stream of air rushed forward, easily making all of the students behind Izuku lose their balance from the sheer air displacement from the attack, before it slammed into Kurogiri, knocking the villain off balance, and Izuku used that moment to use [Intent] again, while it felt like his hand was on fire. Bakugo was surprisingly cooperative, launching himself until he was in front of the villain, obviously realizing that this was a lot more serious than he had originally thought, if Izuku was willing to break a few of his own bones, while the blond haired gremlin brought up his two hands, and let them explode with as much heat and smoke as possible.
[For being so decisive, you've impressed them! +2 Charm!]
"Truly I am impressed with you two, especially you Izuku, remembering my weak point from our encounter." Coldly chuckled Kurogiri, who didn't waste a second in vanquishing the smoke with one of his portals, showing off to everyone that he wasn't harmed at all, and he only seemed upset from the attempt. "You're both golden eggs, a shame neither of you all will survive to see your potential." Softly sighed Kurogiri, who almost seemed somewhat regretful for what he was about to do, before a shudder raced up Izuku's spine, telling him something dangerous was nearby...
Danger Sense was telling Izuku that it was completely surrounding him!
[GRAB ONTO SOMEONE!]
Izuku didn't waste a second, he looked at the person who was closest to him, and grabbed onto her.
That's a wrap people! Yes, Izuku will start developing some skills, there will be no combat skills luckily, the most offensive skill Izuku will actually have is Intent, which isn't really a skill, since Stain was able to use bloodlust in the Hosu city arc, and All Might and All For One have a presence to them, so it is more so something like that. There won't be that many skills anyway, most of the skills will relate to Izuku being a househusband anyway, and Izuku will mainly get his skills through doing various tasks, an example the washing up, or getting a skill every time his stats reach a multiple of 50, with the lone exception of when Danger Sense is completely assimilated.
(Omake: Forgive me lord)
"Everyone, the Problem Child has been in an accident." Emotionlessly sighed Aizawa, gazing over the class, fully aware that some were more effect than others, specifically Shiozaki, Uraraka, Yaoyorozu, Kendo, Ida, and Eijiro. 'I say everyone will get a chuckle out of this.' Dryly realized Aizawa, loudly clearing his throat, making the class go silent, as the door slowly opened up, revealing... Midoriya.
'I want to leave.' Immediately concluded Izuku, as SHE walked into the classroom, feeling everyone's gaze on her, as she was fully aware of the fact that she was not ready for this, she did not want to be a girl!
"Midoriya got involved in a villain attack this morning, the villain's quirk temporarily turns someone into the opposite gender, so the Problem child will be a girl for a week." Amusedly hummed Aizawa, looking over his students, some were almost laughing, aka Bakugo and Kaminari, some didn't seem phased, Tokoyami and Tokage, most were shocked, but Shiozaki... was blushing.
[You be looking hella fine! You've maxed out your relationship with Shiozaki Ibara!]
Izuku couldn't do much but whimper, as she slowly looked towards her teacher, who knew by her look, that something had happened with Dating Sims, more specifically one of his routes.
"Forgive me lord." Softly mumbled Shiozaki, staring at Izuku with only two emotions in her eyes, and Izuku wasn't sure how to feel about it.
Love and lust...
