Case file #1: Uraraka Ochako

"Dear Diary, I'm afraid my nurse is going to get jumped."

"Deep breath, Izuku, deep breath...!"

Izuku whispered to himself in front of the giant door. The sign said '1-C' looking down at him, waiting for him to open the door and enter. Taking in a deep breath as he told himself, Izuku entered the classroom.

"He's not here..."

Ochako whispered to herself as she looked around the classroom for a familiar set of fluffy green hair. She did catch sight of some fluffy hair, but both were pink and purple. Heck, the only green hair belonged to a girl who sat scarily still.

Did he not make it in? But that's impossible...! She only made it thanks to him! Rescue Point was a thing, wasn't it? No one deserved those points more than that boy she saw running around, helping everyone in sight...

The loud, glasses guy and the sparkling guy made it in! How the heck did that green angel not!

Maybe he's in 1-B?

But before Ochako could come up with more possible scenarios, a yellow caterpillar on the ground caught her, and everyone's, attention.

"Izuku-kun!"

Looking up from his talk with Chiyo on their way back to the infirmary, Izuku saw a cheerful set of brown hair running towards him. She was still in her pink with a dark accent, skin-tight hero costume, waving with the most enthusiasm he ever saw from another human being.

"Uraraka-san." Izuku greeted back with a smile, not noticing Chiyo letting out a tired sigh. "You look happy today. Did something good happened?"

"Just happy to see you!" Ochako replied with a blush, a gesture Izuku registered as her getting tired from running.

"Running immediately after strenuous exercise is really not good for your health." Without hesitation, Izuku put a hand on Ochako's forehead, looking straight at her intensely for signs of fatigue. "Your face is kind of hot, right now. You're not making any eyes contact. You're making some strange noises... It doesn't look like fatigue, but it's not normal, either. Chiyo-sensei, what's your thought?"

"I believe you should let the poor girl have some space before she fainted." Chiyo calmly replied. While her rock-headed student was looking for signs, she had to witness the poor girl's face reach a new level of redness at the closeness.

"Well, I'm just going to use my Quirk, just in case." Meanwhile, Izuku did not take a single clue as he grew more worried and started to grab Ochako's hand. At the sudden contact, Ochako let out some more gibberish as she watched her hand being gently held by Izuku.

"I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I-Izuku-kun!" Ochako managed to stutter out a response. "I-I-I-I-I-I-I-I'm fine! Really! You're going to get tired from using your Quirk!"

"What's a little fatigued if I could help you?" Izuku joked, not noticing smoke started emitting from Ochako's bright red face. "Hell, I'll do this for the rest of my life if I have to. Anything for you, Uraraka-san."

Both didn't notice Chiyo already gave up and left.

"Excuse me, is anyone here...?"

Ochako dragged herself into the infirmary with the most exhaustion she's ever felt. Mentally, that is. The Entrance Exam took the cake for physical exhaustion. Immediately after the threat of expulsion from her homeroom teacher, Ochako had to sit through lunch without eating a single thing. Dinner Water is all she needs to say healthy throughout the day. Daily lunch and breakfast just put more of a toll on her already limited pocket. To top on all of that, the Quirk Apprehension Test made the atmosphere in her class tenser than ever. After realizing that they could get expelled at any moment, no one tried to strike up a conversation with anyone, which just made her focus more on her growling stomach.

"Hi, good evening!" She didn't have the energy to turn towards where voice was coming from, focusing instead on staying awake. "Recovery Girl just left, but I'm here to look after the office when she's out. Can I help you with anything?"

"I'm... fine." Ochako dragged herself onto the bed. "I just need to rest. Today has been... tiring."

"Ah, overwhelming first day, I assume." The soft, kind and somewhat familiar voice chuckled. "Recovery Girl did tell me to expect someone from the first year to come."

Ochako could hear noises of the cupboards being searched, along with the sound of water being poured into a cup. "Usually, sleeping the tiredness off would be recommended, but sleeping with an empty stomach just makes it worse."

She then saw a Yakisoba bread being placed in front of her face. Without missing a single step, Ochako tore the packaging off and devoured the bread with only a few bites. She quickly snatched the cup of water away from the nurse's(?) hand and gulped down the water.

"Easy there." The nurse's chuckle somehow even got softer. "Saving someone three times in row would be a new record for me."

Ochako head shot up and, in an instant, she recognized that face. The green angel who lifted that piece of debris up and rescued her. The same angel she's been looking for all morning.

"IT'S YOU!" She screamed, earning a chuckle from him.

"Good to see you again too, gravity girl." He smiled as he offered her another glass of water. "Rough day in the Hero Course."

"Ugh, the worst!" Ochako groaned before she gulped down another glass of water. "I take it you're having an easier day?"

"Orientation was... interesting." Izuku hummed. "Nezu-sensei sure loves to talk about how to keep his hair smooth and fluffy. I still don't know how both those things went together. Other than that, it's mostly just a quick look over at what we're about to learn. Even Recovery Girl onl briefed me about what I should do while I'm here."

"So, 1-B hasn't done the Quirk Apprehension Test yet?" Ochako tilted her head curiously.

"Well, I haven't seen anyone from 1-B came yet." Izuku closed his eyes, trying to remember. "But I doubt a Quirk Apprehension would result in someone coming here."

"Wait- huh?" This time, Ochako's confused noise made Izuku look over at her. "You're not in 1-B?!"

"No...?" Izuku replied slowly, not understanding Ochako's shocked expression. "I'm in 1-C. General Education Department. But yeah, it's pretty cool that Midnight is our homeroom teacher. Like, they let pro heroes-"

"But- But!" Ochako sat up. "Why aren't you in the Hero Course?! You helped a lot of people!"

"I guess I'm just not what U.A looks for." Izuku smiled sadly. "But on the other hand, Recovery Girl herself offered to be my mentor. You've gotta jump on that chance immediately, girl."

Ochako couldn't believe her ears. The guy- no, the Hero sitting in front of her wasn't qualified? Was U.A stupid? He literally ran through the entire exam site just to help others! Nothing screams 'Hero's Material' louder than that! And yet, a grape pervert got in instead of him?!

'Would he be in the Hero Course if he hadn't risk saving me?' A thought occurred in Ochako's head.

"It stinks, yes. But it's not the end of the world." Izuku's words snapped Ochako out of her thought. "I have the chance to work with my all-time favorite heroin-"

"It's my fault..." Ochako's mindless mutter stopped Izuku's ranting. "You failed because you had to jump in and save me from my stupid mistake. You could have been destroying robots and gotten more points if it hadn't for me. It's all my faul-"

Before Ochako could finish, she felt a swift, sharp pain in her forehead. She let out a painful yelp and looked up at the perpetrator. The green hair angel just flicked her forehead.

"Quit that, please." A frown appeared on Izuku's face (Ochako will never admit loudly that it doesn't suit his kind, pretty and cute face). "I failed because of me, alright? No one else. I don't regret helping others, so you shouldn't regret getting helped."

"But-"

"I saved you because I wanted to." Izuku firmly cut Ochako's off with a smirk. "I made a choice. If U.A decided, they wanted to fail me because of that then too bad. I'm not changing my decisions. Never. I do this to help people. What's the point of becoming a hero if I have to abandon someone who needs help?"

Ochako could only stare at Izuku wordlessly, not even noticing a slight tinge of blush appeared on her cheeks. Thankfully, the boy himself took that more seriously than it should've been.

"Say, since you're already here, do you want me to use my Quirk on you? Just like the Entrance Exam?" He got closer and whispered into her ears, turning Ochako's blush harder. "My Quirk lets me heal others at the cost of my own energy. That's what I did at the Entrance Exam."

"B-B-B-But are you allowed to do that?" Ochako stuttered. "I-I-I-I-I don't think we can use our Quirks without permission on school ground!"

"What are you, a cop?" Izuku chuckled. "Wait, that's a stupid question. Ignore it. But you're right. Recovery Girl hasn't allowed me to use my Quirk without her supervision just yet."

But before Ochako could say anything else, she could hear Izuku's voice become more playful as he whispered into her ears. "How about we let this become our little secret?"

Ochako fainted immediately as Izuku gently held her hands.

"One of your 'friends' just dropped this off."

Chiyo threw a shirt in Izuku's direction. Ignoring Chiyo's emphasis on the word 'friends', Izuku immediately brightened up at the sight of his favorite shirt. Taking a glance at the shirt, Chiyo visibly gagged at its appearance.

"How is that, your favorite shirt?"

"It's funny!" Izuku showed her a plain black t-shirt with the word 'Gym Outfit' written on it.

"It's horrible." Chiyo remarked. "Why did you even give that thing to someone? That thing could even rival my great niece's hoodie in horribleness!"

"Tokage's hoodie is awesome!" Izuku stuck out his tongue in response. "But I gave this shirt to Kirishima-san after his got burnt during training."

"Ah, I remember now." Chiyo nodded with a tired expression. "That was a recorded simultaneous nosebleed at one moment."

"Quite scary, wasn't it?" Izuku chuckled grimly. "40 simultaneous nosebleeds at the same time. I still think it was a Villain's Quirk at play."

"Not because you took off your shirt in front of them?" Chiyo asked incredulously.

"Why would they bleed at me taking off my shirt?"

Chiyo ignored his question as she continued typing into her computer.

"You sure you're better now? I can still go at it for another half an hour."

Izuku asked Ochako, who was leaving the room with an energetic expression on her face that turned red at the phrasing.

"I'm fine! 100%" Ochako laughed a little too loudly. "I'll see you soon..."

"Oh, right." Izuku chuckled as he offered his hand. "Midoriya Izuku. Nice to meet you..."

"Uraraka Ochako!" Ochako accepted the shake.

School life was looking brighter for her.

A/N: Witness how I tortured Ochako with a dense Izuku.

Who should be next, btw? Toru? Kirishima? Someone from 1-B? The possibilities are endless with this one.
