Chapter 3: Setsuna Tokage
!M Rated!
"Oh fuck!" Setsuna cried.
"Yeah! you like that?"
"Shit! You always spam that combo!"
She threw her controller onto the couch, crossing her arms.
Akio chuckled as his character decapitated Tokage's, a victory screen appearing afterwards.
"Don't hate the player, hate the game." He said, setting his controller down.
She rolled her eyes, "When you called me over for some 'fun', I didn't mean this." She lightly punched his arm.
"Well." He gripped his arm, "To he honest, your offer was really tempting."
Setsuna laughed, "And what made you refuse?"
He sighed, "It's about Kodai. I want some advice."
"Oh?" She said with mock surprise, "Why not ask your friends? Surely they've got the experience?"
"That's the thing." He said, leaning in closer and whispering, "They're virgins."
Setsuna raised her eyebrow, "And what makes you think I'm not?"
He laid back, "You seemed like the best to speak to. And because you're a girl."
"You should really watch your phrasing. Makes you sound stupid." She said.
"Whatever. I need girl advice, and who better to give than another girl?"
The two talked about Kodai, Akio explaining his situation.
"And I thought my life was hectic."
He rubbed the back of his head, "Right?"
Tokage grabbed her phone, fiddling with it until she had an 'aha!' face.
"Look," she pointed at the screen, which displayed her notes app, the Kodai's name at the top.
Akio narrowed his eyes, "You have notes of your classmates?"
"Yep. It's a skill I learned from my parents." She held a finger to her mouth, "Don't tell anyone, alright?"
He sighed, and grabbed the phone.
"Yui likes Matroshka dolls, and the color blue..."
"What would I ever have to use this info for?"
She scoffed, "Scroll down."
Akio did as she asked, a section labeled fetishes popping into view.
He threw the phone back at Tokage, landing smack in the middle of her chest.
"Hey!" She picked up the phone, her expression changing to that of an eager pre-schooler.
"You said you wanted help!" She tried to show Akio the screen, but he had his hands in front of his face.
"I'll tell it to you straight." The girl said, rising from the couch.
"You're not manly enough."
He opened his eyes in surprise, seeing her figure standing over his, her expression filled with disdain.
"What do you mean?" He asked, "You're starting to sound like Kirishima."
She didn't laugh, her eyes fixed on his, "Akio, sex is an adult thing. You're too... childish for it."
He scoffed in disbelief, "Really?" He said, rising from the couch.
She pushed him back onto the seat, putting her foot on his chest.
"You want some practice?"
He blushed, causing Tokage to laugh.
"See?" She got up and straightened out her clothes.
She shook her head, "Give me a call when you're willing to. I can be more than just a third wheel." She winked at him, as she exited his room.
He sighed, resting his head on the back of his sofa.
'That girl is going to give me a heart attack one of these days...'
A sound from his phone grabbed his attention, making him reach for it on the coffee table.
"A message from Ashido?"
After inputting his passcode, his eyes nearly popped out of their sockets in surprise.
"Hey Aki-kun~! I saw Tokage-san come out of ur room, u two wouldn't be doing anything PERVY would u? -v-"
Akio cussed loudly, "She's the LAST person I'd want poking her nose around my business!"
He frantically tapped a reply,
"Saw ur message haha, she just asked me for some-"
He thought for a few seconds.
"-Cooking advice! I'm not that kinda guy you know."
He hit sent.
Immediately a few seconds later, he got another text.
"really? then why was she all red when she left?"
...
[Mina Ashido]
Mina cackled, imagining Akio's face as she read her message.
She was leaning against the outside of her door, watching Tokage head towards the elevator.
"This is going to make for some fanTASTIC gossi—"
A hand quickly slammed against the right side of her wall, making a noise as it impacted.
She was face to face with Todoroki, his face serious.
"What brings you here?" She said while covering her phone.
He said nothing, instead grabbing her phone out of her hands.
"Akio just told me that you were harassing him." He said, his tone neutral.
She bit her lip, 'So Todoroki knows...'
Mina gave him a small smile, "Well, if you call flirting harassment..."
He narrowed his eyes even further.
'Fuck. He's not buying it.'
"Hey Momo! You shouldn't be coming out of the shower in just a towel!" She shouted, using her acting skills to their fullest.
He glanced behind him, giving Mina a chance to escape.
She cackled once more, "I can't believe that wor—"
Her foot slipped causing her to trip, the ground oddly cold.
Todoroki slid next to her, quickly using his fire to melt the thin sheet of ice.
He sighed, extending an arm, "I just wanted to ask you to not spread that rumor around."
"Fine." She grumbled, grabbing his hand to lift herself up.
He turned around, shouting "Thanks." as he walked away.
...
[1-B Dorms]
It was later that day a rumor briefly circulated which made the students think Todoroki and Akio were dating, but was dismissed.
A yawning Hiryo Rin made his way to the lounge, his laptop under his arm.
He wasn't necessarily friends with a lot of the class, but he wasn't distant either. He just didn't feel the need to hang out.
That was until Mina Ashido came along, her UA: RUMORS blog bringing lots of insight to those inside and outside of the program.
So much so that they averaged around a couple million views on their page every time she posted.
In fact, she'd appointed him as Vice President. So he was fairly impressed to say the least.
He managed the technical side of things, but that didn't stop him from browsing himself.
He sat on one of the sofas, resting his laptop on his thighs.
"Let's see..." He input his login credentials and scrolled.
His inbox was flooded with messages from Mina asking where he was.
Kiryu: What?
Mina: ...
Mina: where r u??!
Kiryu: I'm in the common room, why?
A couple seconds after he sent that text, he heard the elevator ding.
A purple-haired girl stepped out, her face contorted in an odd fashion.
"Rin-kun, I need you to do something for me." She said, her hand holding her phone.
Confused, he motioned for her to sit next to him.
She complied, swiping at her phone before going "aha!"
She quickly swung her phone to face towards him, a picture of Tokage appearing.
He was slightly surprised, but more so confused.
"What is this?"
She rolled her eyes, "Look closer."
He tried to analyze the photo, going over every detail. Tokage wore casual wear, and it looked like she was in a hurry.
Her face though...
"She's embarrassed? What does that have to with anything?"
"My whole time here, I've seen a lot of stuff. I know exactly what people think, and based off of her expression..." Mina continued, leaning in to whisper, "They had SEX~."
Kiryu had to admit, when she was focused, she was SCARY. The fact that she even got this picture is a question of legitimacy.
"I don't think we should publish this picture..." he said, rubbing his chin.
She scoffed and grabbed his laptop, "If you won't do it then I'll do it myself."
She typed quickly, making one of her esteemed articles in only a couple of minutes.
"...aaand published!"
She grinned, "That's what Todoroki gets for messing with me."
...
[Setsuna Tokage]
"FUCK!" I slammed my fist against the training dummy's head. It had a picture of Akio on it's face.
I'd decided to do some training to try and forget about what I almost did, but it just wasn't working.
"WHY-", WAP!, "CAN'T I-", FWHOOSH!, "FORGET ABOUT HIM?!"
My fists stopped flying, I sat onto the ground.
A ping drew my attention, it was another one of Ashido's blog posts.
I chuckled, 'Maybe this'll let me forget...'
Unlocking my phone presented me with the title in bold.
ENERUYA AND TOKAGE? FORBIDDEN LOVE? (PICS INCLUDED)
"...what the fuck?"
