Next up is moving into the dorms and the Provisional Licensing Exam arc.

It's meet the parents night at Grandma Kuroyashi's. But that's not the only thing that happens.

Suri felt lighter than she had in months, no longer weighted down by the impending doom that she'd reserved herself to. She wouldn't have to rush anything anymore. There no longer a time limit on becoming a hero and saving a thousand lives and in fact, maybe she should up that goal. And it was a goal now, not a quota.

She was free.

Motherfucking amen.

And speaking of mother fucking…

Suri had spaced out on her little breakthrough and had missed the initial blubbering mess Izuku had become. The squealing, bright red blushing, and frantic arm waving had brought Suri out of her daze and she'd realized where she was. After the beach they'd all gone back to the compound and she'd spent the time catching up with her family. To up the happy little reunion Grandma Kuroyashi had invited all of her own daughter's friends over for a surprise. A surprise nearly twenty years in the making because Maon, Suri's mother, had come back to Japan and, for once, wasn't tied down by her husband's hero work. She actually got her own free time. So she took full advantage of it when she found out Grandma had invited her old gang over for tea.

So why was Izuku a blushing, blubbering mess?

Because right now in the middle of the living room was Maon Kuroyashi and Inko Midoriya. Moan was taller and thinner with a well toned body lined with lean muscle and ample definition. Suri had gained everything body structure wise from the woman in front of them. Her skin wasn't pale but, instead, carried a soft, even sunkissed tan which was possible because of her southern Japanese heritage. It meant she tanned very well. She'd also had her waist length midnight blue, nearly black, hair tied back in a long, thick French braid which made the view a lot easier. The view of the taller woman leaning over the smaller emerald haired Inko who had her lips caught by her old best friend.

Inko had been a blubbering mess as soon as she walked through the door and saw her old best friend standing there. The two of them had met halfway basically in the middle of the living room. They had hugged tight and both of them shared tears after so long of not seeing each other but then Suri's mom had upped the ante and did something she'd waited nearly two decades to do. Inko, much like her son when Suri, Mina, and Tooru, first started kissing him was an absolute frantic mess. But she too relented after a short moment and was returning the gesture in kind. She was going so far as to stand on her tiptoes and happily push herself into the taller woman.

So yeah… Suri didn't blame Izuku for the shock.

Maybe if she hadn't been a lycanthrope that would have weirded her out or shocked her? But not all nudity or intimate gestures, like a kiss, were inherently sexual in nature to lycanthropes, it was just… well… natural. Plus if you thought about it; if you missed the hell out of your best friend and hadn't seen them in almost twenty years, wouldn't you want to hug and kiss them?

Though, this was nothing compared to what Suri, Tooru, and Mina had done after a week of being apart during their internships. That weekend had been the first time the three had had sex and by the Gods had it been amazing. Was Suri necessarily expecting the moms to go out and have a reunion orgy? No, of course not! There was currently far too little alcohol for that escapade to go down.

"We so need a girl's night now!"

Kishida Ashido sighed longingly as she watched the two with a sly smirk. Apparently she may have had the exact same thought as Suri just had.

"Fucking right?" Moan grinned as she pulled back from Inko who did the fluttering eyes and rapidly blinked as she came back to reality thing. "Fuck, I've missed you guys. I'm… I'm really sorry we never got together over the years. We were always so busy with Dem's work and letting the kids spend time with mom that-"

"Hey, you're not the only one at fault," Komi Hagakure added. "Me and Kishida are the only ones who really stayed in contact. We went out for drinks once in a while with Mitsuki but even that became fewer and fewer over time."

"Speaking of the bitch," Maon smirked and looked through the room. "Where is she?"

"I visit Mitsuki every once in a while," Inko said with a heavy sigh and looked at her son. "Mostly because her boy took after her and I tried to get her to sit down with him. Me and Kishida stayed in touch a little but it's because of work. I pulled back a lot from everyone after... everything that happened."

"With what Bakugou told me, she's probably home dealing with that," Suri answered, laying herself back on the couch and looking up at the ceiling.

The six moms all looked at one another and then focused on Maon. The woman thought about something for a long while and then smiled with a determined nod. She looked at the couch holding her own family, aside from Suri and Grandma Kuroyashi, and gave the two women there a warm smile. An approval from them.

"Well then, that settles it," Maon grinned wide, bearing fangs. "It sucks we can't drag Mitsuki along but it's probably for the best anyway. For the rest of us, we're having a ladies night!"

"Honey, you sure you wanna get Lexi here boozed up on sake?" Eve asked with her own fanged smirk as she nudged the woman beside her. The oldest of the three wives, she was far more curvaceous than the other two and had a similar build to Inko. The two of them beside each other were the epitome of the words thick or big beautiful women but where Inko may have not been proud to flaunt herself, Eve had no issues in it. She was short, portly, with umber skin that had shades of blue and purple in the highlights, strikingly vivid blue eyes, and thick curly hair that was nearly sheared down to her scalp.

Moan looked from Eve to Alexis next to her, her eyes gave their sister wife a once over. She was just over six feet in height, a slender woman with pale white skin and bright lime green colored eyes. Her eyes made her robin red hair that was braided tightly into a viking sort of style with the sides of her head buzzed down to the skin practically glow. Maon remembered the last time Alexis, their Irish and Scottish blooded werewolf, had drank sake. It made her grin wide with the same sort of devilish intent that Suri had pointed at Mina and Tooru so many times when she was thinking lewd thoughts. It showed Izuku, Tooru, and Mina where Suri had gotten her mischievous side.

"Oh hell yeah!" Maon cheered.

Alexis squirmed and blushed bright red, her pale skin turning a soft shade of pink over her entire body. Her skin was a pale version of Mina's skin from how embarrassed she was. Apparently the last time had been a very very fun night.

"Then I know a fantastic place that has some of the best sake I've ever had," Kishida replied with the same devious grin Mina could give.

"Oh no. You don't mean," Komi said nervously as she flailed her arms towards her friend.

"M-Moan, are you sure," Alexis finally spoke up shyly. "I-I mean, I know how we are back home but are you sure you want me… l-like that… in front of your friends?"

"Pfft, of course, besides, you're not the only lightweight. Ain't that right, Inky?" Maon grinned and turned to the greenette still in her arms.

"I-I know I-I became a l-lightweight after l-losing I-Izumi b-but..."

"I-It's a long story," Alexis spoke up, softly eyeing the other woman. "B-But I don't metabolize alcohol like most other lycanthropes do. I'm pretty human in that regard, a-actually."

The two moms gave each other a knowing look and then their eyes trailed back to the tall midnight blue haired woman in the center of the living room with a wide grin on her face.

"All right, ladies, let's go have some fun," Maon cheered.

"A-Are yous sure," Inko said and then looked at her son and his girlfriends. Yeah, that would take some getting used to. "What about the kids?"

"We'll be fine," Mina said in a playful reassuring voice. "Izuku can stay with us!"

That was met with Mina happily grabbing onto Izuku's arm and cuddling herself to him. To his effort, Izuku only slightly blushed and gave his mom a reassuring smile of his own. Aside from the hectic week of getting the meeting set up for Suri and packing their belongings to move into the UA dorms, Mina and Izuku had gone on that date he promised her. In fact, over the last week he'd also managed to squeeze in a date last night where he took Tooru out to a movie. The three of them had had a fun time even with all of the drama which had made Suri happy.

"Yeah," Suri said with her own grin. "Go and have fun. You and my mom have a lot to catch up on since you two haven't seen each other or talked in a really long time. And none of us wanna get in the way of that."

Maon gave her daughter a caring look that doubled as a thank you.

"Mom, you've stayed home all of these years to take care of me," Izuku said with a smile. "Go and have fun with your friends. You deserve it."

Inko started tearing up and smiled wide as she began to softly cry.

"And here I'm supposed to be the adult," she chuckled softly. "Okay, okay. So where are we going, Kishida?"

"You'll find out," Kishida answered with a grin and soon the group of moms all stood and began moving towards the door. "And what about you... Rossi, was it? Are you joining us?"

The group of women stopped and turned towards the tall, muscular woman that had stayed relatively silent the entire evening. Granted, she'd had her head laying into the crook of Mathias' neck the entire time and was blissfully in her own world where it was just the two of them. Her answer made them realize she had also been extremely nervous.

"Unfortunately, I can't," she answered and looked at her soon to be husband with expectant eyes. "We have a meeting to attend with dad."

"Yeah," Mathias sighed and gave everyone an apologetic smirk that said he'd been wanting to mention it but hadn't found the time. "We're doing all the ceremonial bullshit with Uncle Toshi tonight. Apparently we have to redo all of the inductions for him to be an honorary member of the clan again, now that we're taking over officially."

"That makes sense," Suri answered and nodded. Then she had a thought that she decided to run by everyone in the room. With four Lupas, an Ulfric, and a Hyo-Ra all in the same room she might as well, right?. "Do Atiena and I have to do ceremonial stuff, or how does starting my own clan work?"

"Atiena?" Mathias asked quietly, his brows narrowing as he looked at his baby sister.

"Oh yeah, I guess I hadn't had the chance to tell you guys yet," Suri grinned wide and closed her eyes as she set herself back against her beast's chest within her mind, allowing her power to prickle along hers, Tooru, Mina, and Izuku's skin and flood outwards with a warm electric wind that filled the room. It made every lycanthrope in the room become covered in goosebumps and their own power stir and resonate with the young woman's. With a fanged grin, Atiena spoke up through Suri. "Suri is far from the young woman she used to be. As for me, I am Atiena."

Mathias stared wide eyed at his little sister and then slowly looked from her to their mothers, Eve, Alexis, and Maon. Even Rossi's eyes became wide as she stared at the girl. The older women looked at Suri like they'd just met her for the first time or more like she'd grown a second head. All of the adults slowly looked at each other from one to the other in silent shock.

"Oh my gods... It all makes sense now."

It was Alexis that finally broke the silence, the shock making her accent slip into a Scottish drawl. The teens, including Dante and Hunter just stared at the group of adults with confusion.

"Umm, is everything okay?" Dante asked as he looked back and forth between his moms and his sister with a cocked eyebrow. "Why y'all lookin at her like that?"

"Right?" Suri answered. "Dad gave me the same look a couple months ago after the Sports Festival when he heard the name too."

It was then Eve began chuckling, softly at first, before she outright laughed for a short moment. With her hands on her hips she gave Suri a wide grin and shook her head softly.

"Sweetheart, didn't you ever pay attention to clan history? The old ones would be giving you a whopping if they heard you kids right now." When Suri and Dante looked at each other with expectant eyes and then turned to Hunter who simply shrugged at them, Eve sighed heavily and closed her eyes. "Really? No idea?"

"Baby, you're killing us," Maon snickered and shook her head. "Atiena was a great granddaughter of Queen Azunaihara. She's the one that moved our ancestors from the thirteen colonies to the Rockies out west."

"But not before setting fire to some plantations and taking some of our people with her," Eve snickered happily.

"I'm… named after the first Lupa of the Aspen Throne Clan," Atiena spoke and then pondered in a long silence as she thought about the implications of Eve's words. Then a smirk curled on her lips. "Guess you are right, I was always meant to be a hellion."

After the adults, other than Grandma Kuroyashi, had left, the teens and the leopard queen retreated into the media room. The spacious room that was in the back of the compound filled with various futon mats and large bean bag chairs facing a large white screen. Suri, Mina, and Tooru were no strangers to this room and had spent a good share of their weekend sleepovers here watching movies together. Tonight, though, Suri had piled into one of the giant bean bags with her brothers. A good portion of one of the movies they watched was largely interrupted by Suri laughing as she talked to Dante while she caught up with her brother.

They talked about his time at Xavier, where he was a senior, his recent sidekick gig where he went by his hero name, Hemlock, and of course his long time girlfriend, Mercedes. When they were paying attention to the movie, she idly ran her fingers through his long, curly hair which had always been a habit back in Salt Lake when they watched movies as a family. Dante didn't get the cloud-like tight sheepish curls like Suri and Mathias had inherited from their dad, he got the frizzled curls and red color of his mother's Irish lineage. He'd taken to the viking and highland heritage and styled his hair in various intricate braids woven through the long thick curls. The red of his hair came out darker where in some light it looked black but in bright lighting you'd see it was a deep crimson with bright red highlights throughout. Another thing he'd inherited from his mother was that, out of the four siblings, he'd been the lightest with pale copper skin compared to Suri and Hunter's dark bronze and Mathias' umber tone.

Suri's other hand played with her baby brother's hair the entire time as well. Which had been a little jarring at first because she expected him to complain and pull away like he usually did. He was a big kid and definitely didn't like his sister playing with his hair! Nope, not one bit! Tonight he was cuddled into her, his head comfortably on her shoulder while he watched the movie and half listened to his siblings. All the while Suri's fingers twirled and combed through his thick, shaggy hair that was so similar to their mother's. He had dyed the faux hawk portion a golden blonde color. The style looked good on him and he tried to have a very model attitude. He was trying to be a lady killer already. As such she had teased him about trying to steal Mercedes away from Dante.

He denied it out right.

"It sucks you're not coming back with us," Hunter grumbled. "Like, I get it, you're in UA and all but still."

"Aww, you really miss me that much?" Suri joked with a wide grin.

"Well yeah! Dante teases me more without you around. Last week he put all my stuff in the attic and made me think dad was sending me off to boarding school or some shit," Hunter whined grumpily. It was good to know that even at twelve he was still adorable when he was pouting.

"That's what older siblings are for," Suri and Mina said in unison before giving each other massive grins and beginning to giggle together.

"It's what we live for," Mina added with a shine in her eye.

"Says the girl who complains every time Yomato melts one of your hair brushes," Tooru teased.

"Oh gods, don't remind me," Suri snickered. "Remember her chasing him around with all of his action figures after he melted the brush she'd hand painted?"

"Whoa! So you can melt stuff?" Hunter asked with wide eyed excitement.

"Yup! I can secrete acid and I can dictate the strength of it depending on what I'm needing it for," Mina answered happily.

"You looked super cool on TV," Hunter added as he beamed and it sort of had a very Izuku kind of nerdiness to him poking out.

"You moved a lot like a dancer while you were fighting," Dante spoke up, also showing a little intrigue. "You ever study Capoeira?"

"No, I never really learned it," Mina answered, shaking her head. "My mom's a dance instructor so I've been taking dance and gymnastics since I was five. I love hip hop and breakdancing so I've tried to mix it in with my fighting style."

"I've been teaching her and Tooru how to fist fight, they've picked it up pretty quickly," Suri added with a sort of pride in her tone.

"Ugh! I'm so jealous you guys all got on TV," Tooru whined.

"We saw you a little bit in the first two rounds," Hunter reassured.

"Yeah, you finished in the top 50 and you don't have a Quirk that has any sort of mobility advantages. And that was even during the two obstacles that slowed down everyone the most so I'd say you did pretty good. Honestly, we could have used someone like you about a month ago during a hostage situation I was at with Warpath. We had to deal with this backwoods cult that had taken half a dozen women hostage to make them into sex slaves. And while me and Warpath were able to handle them without the hostages being hurt, the biggest issue we had was the security cameras and motion sensors all over the ranch. We had an eight hour standoff before we were able to get everyone out. You could have cut that down to half," Dante finished with a shrug because he stated everything so matter of factly.

Suri, Mina, and Izuku simply smirked because it made Tooru's self-deprecating thoughts all but vanish into thin air.

"And then there's you," Dante smirked and his eyes fell onto the greenette. "I figured this long after the Festival you would have had better control. You're crazy powerful, man, but goddamn, you really wrecked yourself out there, looks like."

"Actually his control is pretty amazing now," Tooru answered. "This last week was the first time he had to go to the hospital in a long time."

"She's right," Izuku answered looking at Tooru who happily snuggled herself tighter into his side. "Up until that last villain, I've been able to slowly build up the amount of power I can use. It's been a lot slower than I would have hoped but honestly, it's been nice not having to go get fixed up after every use. This last time though…"

"He sacrificed himself to save a little kid, just like I did," Suri answered, giving him a warm smile. "We went up against opponents that were out of our league. We won."

"But we both paid a price," Izuku finished with a solemn smile. He wasn't happy that either of them hurt themselves to win.

"You were cool to watch going up against Todoroki. That was my favorite match," Hunter beamed, then he turned confused eyes to Suri. "But what happened to you, sis?"

"Yeah? I've never seen you pass out like you did in that match," Dante added.

"Oh umm… that was dad's fault," Suri chuckled softly and looked away nervously. "He… sort of hit me with a Wave of Dominance. Twice."

"He what?!"

Suri had to explain everything. They hadn't even noticed that Grandma Kuroyashi had paused the action movie playing in the background - not that anyone was full-heartedly paying attention to it - so that the kids could talk. Suri along with her girlfriends and boyfriend's help caught the two boys up on everything that had happened since the school year had started.

It had been quite a bit to go over.

When it came to discussing their dad's actions, the attack on the USJ, her encounter with Shigaraki at the mall, and then finally Gemini, Dante and Hunter were clearly worried for their sister's well being. And that's what made them great brothers; they cared. They were pissed at their dad for fucking up Suri's chances at the Sports Festival and everything surrounding her situation in the first place. They were worried about Suri being safe knowing how easily the League had gotten into UA and was able to find out the location of the top secret summer camp they'd been at. They were worried about what someone like Gemini would mean for the rest of the preternatural community.

Suri didn't have an answer for that one.

Before they stewed over that moment of dread for too long Grandma Kuroyashi cut through their silent, much too focused thoughts.

"Dears, it's quite late. I think it would be a good idea to get some rest soon," she smiled warmly at the group of teens. "We have a big day tomorrow for Suri, Izuku, Tooru, and Mina here."

They did?

What kind of big day? It's not like any of them had plans… Wait, yes they did.

"Oh shit, I haven't even packed anything," Suri said quietly.

"Girl, we'll worry about that in the morning. Thanks to you, all of us are ready to go so moving won't be a big deal for us," Mina said happily.

"She's right. We can help you pack when we wake up," Tooru agreed.

The three girls hadn't even realized they had started to walk for the door of the movie room and head straight for Suri's bed when Izuku making a nervous sound stopped them. He looked at them, blushing hard and looking away from them nervously. He gave them the best smile he could for how shy he started being,

"I feel silly for asking but, w-where were we all planning on sleeping? I-I umm, I can sleep on the couch o-or on the floor. Or I can sleep here a-and keep Dante and Hunter company," Izuku stammered cautiously.

"Oh, I'm probably staying up all night," Hunter grinned. "Grandma's got a badass game setup here and I wanna play some CoD."

"Hunter, sweetie, I never said you could," the old woman smirked. "But I guess I can let you and Dante stay up later. Only on one condition."

"What's that, grandma?" he asked excitedly, practically bouncing up and down.

"You gotta beat me," she grinned wide with a massively cocky grin. Truth be told, the old woman had gotten very very good at video games since retiring as a pro hero and focusing solely on the pard. But if anyone could beat her, it would be Hunter.

"Deal!"

"Homie, lemme ask you something real quick," Dante leaned into Izuku and whispered something into his ear. Whatever he said had made Izuku's eyes go massively wide and nervously flick towards the three girls. He nodded rapidly a couple times in response to something Dante said. Izuku pulled back, nervous but an ever so slight determined smile on his face. "Am I right?"

"Y-Yeah!" Izuku nodded quickly and answered a little louder than necessary.

"So do it, man. Ain't no reason to hang with us and skip on them right?" Dante chuckled and gave Izuku a wink.

And with that, Izuku strode forward towards Suri, Mina, and Tooru, his three girlfriends, who all looked back and forth between each other with confused and slightly amused glances. They didn't know what Dante had whispered, but whatever he did gave them this cute and dorky display. They couldn't help but swoon a tiny bit at their precious emerald cinnamon roll. Even more so when he visibly swallowed hard and proceeded to take Suri and Tooru's hands in each of his and led them down the hall and towards Suri's room. Mina who had her hand taken by Suri in the process couldn't help but laugh as he tried to be so uber masculine and lead the way.

"Okay, honey, I gotta know," Mina said, shaking her head with a grin. "What did he say to you?"

"Right?" Suri snickered. "What's up, Green Bean?"

He stopped once he got to Suri's door and he all but froze up in a fit of nerves so bad that he started muttering rapidly and quietly. It made the three girls laugh again and roll their brows upwards because they couldn't figure out what had gotten into their boy. It was Tooru who started to get worried when he didn't speak to any of them directly and she saw the scared look in his eyes.

"Izu," she said softly, moving up to press herself into him so that he might be shaken out of his near panic attack. "Hey, what's wrong? There's nothing to be nervous or scared of, babe."

"S-Sorry," he said finally, shaking his head as he came out of the muttering storm. A muttering storm that all three had caught the last words he'd said in it; make love. It made him even more nervous realizing he'd ended with those particular words. "I-I… I had to get us here fast or I was going to talk myself out of it… but I-I.. I d-dunno i-if…"

"Izuku," Suri said quietly from the other side of him as she and Mina came to lean into his other side. The beast girl gave him soft caring eyes as she made him look into them. She saw how nervous he was and they all knew why now. "I… we know what you said at the beach when dad scared you. I dunno what Dante said to you in there but if you're not ready we don't have to do anything you don't want to do."

"Honestly, sweetie," Mina said next, showing him her own award winning smile. "I was perfectly happy just cuddling up with you in the chair."

"So was I," Tooru added. "I'd… I want to... ya know, too... But really, falling asleep next to you like I did while we were watching the movie? I'm more than happy with that too."

Izuku looked at the three girls and some of his fear and hesitation began to melt away almost instantly. The way the three of them smiled helped reassure him and he allowed himself to smile in return. He knew, logically, what could happen on the other side of the door was just the next step. He was nervous, sure, but it was his girlfriends, the ones who chose him of all people. He'd already kissed and made out with each of them, cuddled them, he'd even woken up pressed to Suri in barely any clothing at all. He gave himself reassurance then, if nothing else, he'd be going to sleep wrapped in blankets with three of the prettiest girls he knew. It was far more than enough to make Mineta absolutely jealous.

He swallowed the lump in his throat, took a deep calming breath and then closed his eyes. And with a voice as even as he could manage, he finally spoke.

"C-Cuddling… is the least we'll be doing."
