Who Are You?

"Okay, Kyouka... You've got this."

After taking a deep breath, Kyouka looked up from the sidewalk to stand in admiration of "the barrier" before which she currently stood; U.A. High School. She began scanning her eyes up and down the school's main building, eyes widening in amazement and anxiety at the prospect of attending classes here. Another deep breath inhaled, and she began to walk up the path to the doors, looking around at the other teenagers in the same situation as she, when she came across a head of green.

Raising an eyebrow in curiosity, she began to steer herself toward the previously-headlining young man when she noticed him trip over seemingly nothing. As the boy began a nearly comedic flail, Kyouka had to stifle a laugh as she reached out, grasping his arm to steady the boy before he landed face-first on the brick path toward the school.

"Still jumping through hoops to injure yourself, huh? Pretty sure tying your shoelaces is a prerequisite for the exam." In the back of her mind, Kyouka couldn't help but give herself a little high-five at her snarky remark to the boy's near misfortune. As she removed her hand from his arm, the only response he could give was a wide-eyed look of pure confusion.

'Way to go, dummy. This guy doesn't know who you are. You've never met!' Berating herself mentally, Kyouka continued, hoping to clear up the boy's confusion.

"I saw you on the news a few months back. When you charged at that slime villain? You're kinda an idiot, aren't you?" Another mental high-five, another look of confusion. The boy was so confused, the only facial expression he could manage was opening and closing his mouth. Realizing the boy looked reminiscent of a fish, a snicker escaped from her lips as she shook her head, turning away.

"Whatever, dude. Just know that if ya keep storming into situations like that, you'll end up getting yourself killed before you can even become a full-fledged hero." Shoving her hands into her pockets, she strolled off into the building. As the door closed, she heard the boy finally speak.

"W-who...?"

Listening to Present Mic drone on about the written portion of the exam, Kyouka let her mind wander some while she twirled a jack in her fingers. As she lost focus on what Present Mic was saying, almost immediately a semi-familiar voice caught her attention. A low-pitched, high-speed flurry of mutters was coming from a few rows behind her. Tilting her head back some, she caught sight of a messy head of green, confirming her suspicion.

'That guy sure is making a name for himself already...'

Turning to the larger teen to her left, she bumped him with her elbow.

"Ey. Glasses. Whattaya think of mutternutter three rows back?"

"What are you talking about?" Not moving his head, the glasses-wearing teen's gave his sharp response. So sharp, even, that it was enough to make Kyouka wince a small bit before responding.

"There's a guy a few rows back who's been muttering under his breath for the last five minutes."

Snapping his head to face her, the sharp teen glared at her, his gaze from behind his glasses a steely blue.

"Where? He should be paying his full attention to the presentation at hand."

Pointing back in the general direction of the muttering boy, Kyouka bit back a smirk as this steely-eyed peer of hers rose his hand in a manner that she couldn't help but recognize as being similar to that of a long-dead dictator from many years prior.

"Present Mic, sir!"

Halting his speech on the beginnings of the practical exam, the vocal-themed hero/teacher called out to him, pointing a long finger in their general direction.

"Hey yea?! What's goin' on up there?!"

"You just stated that there are three types of villains we are to be fighting, yet the handout clearly states there are FOUR types of villains! Please tell me this was not an error, as such would be greatly embarrassing, I believe!"

As the guy stated his question, the Earphone Jack user looked up at him bewildered. She had been paying attention to what was being said, but that didn't help with clearing up the question he posed.

"Also!" Dropping the handout he was holding and swung his arm around, pointing back at the 'mutternutter'. "You've been muttering to yourself for the past five minutes! Stop it! It's distracting, and I'm sure there are many others around you that would say the same thing!"

As she turned to watch his reaction, Kyouka felt a slight pang of guilt zip down her spine as she saw the boy freeze up as the nearby student candidates all turned to glare at him.

'Dang.. I just wanted to tease the guy a lil more... Didn't mean to do anything like that... I just hope I didn't throw him off his game or anything...'
