A fairly simple design with many layers of dark lightweight fabric interwoven with non-conductive metal for protection that would help disguise their movements, Akira's costume included a capture weapon similar in design to Eraser Head's scarf as well as several knives and many compartments for snacks and other supplies. Braces on their ankles and knees would also help if they ran into quirk exhaustion, and Akira could already feel a bit of a difference in their pain levels. The instruction booklet even included an adjustment period section for the braces. Akria had a feeling they wouldn't be stiff enough to provide full support if they were really bad off, but it should be better than nothing./p

It quickly became clear that Yaoyorozu didn't know JSL and had no intention of learning until she had to, leaving another mark against her in Akira's book. Communication through one party writing while the other infantilized them was frustrating at best, and Akira just hoped the others appreciated how much they were trying not to strangle this girl./p

Warping a few inches forward, they carefully padded towards the door and put their face to the crack as All Might announced the prep time was over. Once Akira had a clear visual, they tossed up some pocket sand and teleported to the other side, padding away when they didn't hear anything after a moment. Their boots were near-silent against the floor, and while their clone would only last for 10 minutes, they could always re-up invisibility by leaving a clone up./p

From below, they heard a faint crackling noise and cracked a smile. Near-silently moving towards the stairs, they kept an ear out for the crackle but started to feel the hair on the back of their neck rise and their heart stutter. This felt oddly familiar…/p

They needed to end this quickly. Wrapping the other end around their waist, they slowly started to lower themself, stopping when they were just above the doorway to the second floor. Tightening their grip and clenching their core, Akira lightly tossed two ball bearings onto the steps while swinging themself back towards the floor they came from./p

Okay, maybe a lot of burn cream as they slowly felt themself pulled back to a fuller awareness. After a long moment, Akira realized their hand was on someone's chest, and they were walking through breathing exercises. Jerking back, Akira realized a moment too late how bad that would look and tried to downplay the reaction as more startled than the terror they had felt. As their senses slowly dialed back up from zero, Akira took stock of what they could get from each, grounding themself especially with the burning tingle running up their arms./p

"You're dangerously underweight for your quirk. You specifically have in your file how much you need for lunch to safely train, and yet here you are barely weighing more than you did after the entrance exam." Her gaze softened slightly, "If you need help, ask for it. We have a counselor on staff and assistance programs for low-income households."/p

A fairly simple design with many layers of dark lightweight fabric interwoven with non-conductive metal for protection that would help disguise their movements, Akira's costume included a capture weapon similar in design to Eraser Head's scarf as well as several knives and many compartments for snacks and other supplies. Braces on their ankles and knees would also help if they ran into quirk exhaustion, and Akira could already feel a bit of a difference in their pain levels.

All Might had the gall to look sheepish as Akira threw up their hands and gestured to Koda, the first person they saw who was proficient. Eyes wide, he froze and looked like a deer in headlights./p

They weren't unconscious again, but they couldn't quite focus on their surroundings, either. Akira longed to retreat into their mind but had the distinct feeling that would be a terrible idea./p

They hoped the woman wasn't worried about them; they'd be fine, nothing a little burn cream and painkillers couldn't fix. Okay, maybe a lot of burn cream as they slowly felt themself pulled back to a fuller awareness. After a long moment, Akira realized their hand was on someone's chest, and they were walking through breathing exercises. Jerking back, Akira realized a moment too late how bad that would look and tried to downplay the reaction as more startled than the terror they had felt. As their senses slowly dialed back up from zero, Akira took stock of what they could get from each, grounding themself especially with the burning tingle running up their arms./p

Akira nodded along as Recovery Girl explained the very cream they'd been using for two years. It didn't seem to help fade their scars, but it at least helped numb the area enough to take the edge off./p

"You're dangerously underweight for your quirk. You specifically have in your file how much you need for lunch to safely train, and yet here you are barely weighing more than you did after the entrance exam." Her gaze softened slightly, "If you need help, ask for it. We have a counselor on staff and assistance programs for low-income households."/p

While they certainly met the financial requirements, they didn't exactly have an address to file the application under for assistance beyond their basic quirk accommodations./p
