Bakugo growled, standing with the other nerds. "You absolutely passed Kyoka. You helped a lot of people get found. And nobody yelled at you about points." Dunce face spoke.

"Yeah, well you did pretty well too. Who knew accidentally insulting could actually help you NOT lose points."

"Who said it was accidental? I just do what you do to me whenever I get nervous."

"So you have been learning! Knew I was a good influence somewhere." Earlobes snorted. Barf, get a closet and flirt far away from him.

"Looks like the Bakusquad is going strong!" Raccoon eyes shouted. He would have corrected them that is NOT whatever they're called, and he's not a part of it, but Dodger had that tricky mind game going on.

"Yeah, Bakusquad for life!" Shitty hair was going to get buried alive when they got back to the dorms. Bad enough his old hag thought Shitty hair and Lizard Girl were anything other than notable extras. He didn't want this to become a permanent group, he rose to the top alone, damn it!

"Does this mean Iruma has his own squad?" Half and Half spoke up with a dumbass question. "Like … Irumasquad?"

"That sounds lovely!" Invisigirl shouted out like a fan girl.

"No, that's not right. Bakusquad works because 'Baku' just means explosion. It's a punny name." He blinked at grape shit's words, before glaring at his 'teammates' with sparkling hands.

"Explain shitstains."

"Not our fault it just kind of rolls off the tongue." Tape arms shrugged. "Blame Present Mic for it, he's the pun guy that came up with it."

"But he just called them the Gluttonous Flyers, and that doesn't fit at all." Ponytail stated, moving in close to the dunce face.

"I mean Toru's thirsty, but not Gluttonous." Grape stain was kicked in the jewels for his remark.

"Half the time, it feels more like we're patrolling for danger everytime we do something together." Uraraka snickered. "How about Danger Patrol?"

"Finally, something heroic and dignified!" Four eyes shouted. "I thought I was going to lose it if we went with something worse than Bakusquad."

"Yeah, I don't know why anyone would call themselves stupid." Dodger questioned.

"It's not Bakasquad, it BAKUSQUA…DAMN IT!" He got him again! "How the fuck do you keep doing that!?"

"Doing what?"

"Alright, your results will be displayed now." Finally, now he could show these extras how to really pass. A board full of numbers came up, as he glanced at the top scorer. It was one of the Shiketsu kids with 99. Okay, that wasn't unexpected, rival schools and a second year. It makes sense they would do as good as they did.

"No fucking way…" Invisible girl was shaking violently. "How the fuck does that vampire bitch get so high!?"

"I just treated the civilians like people needing help! Talked with them about their lives and everything!" Looks like the Shiketsu bitch, apparently a 'vampire' somehow, picked up her shout from the crowd. He wasn't completely sure, but he could somehow FEEL that the girl was twitching with rage. It was like an emotion of emotion or something. "With Iruma-kins faith in me, I couldn't do anything BUT do my best!" She pinched Dodger's cheek. "Plus Ultra, right cutie?~"

"Iruma, you…..lucky….bastard!" Grape shit growled. "Our friendship can only spare you from my wrath for so long!"

"Iruma-kins …" Hold the fuck on, where did he hear that before? It was on the tip of his tongue.

"Hey, I got 86 points!" Dodger shouted, pointing at the screen. Wait, he got worse than Dodger!? "I passed!"

"Yeah, so did I! I got a 90!" Tape arms shouted. "Apparently I'm pretty good at this stuff." Oh come on! Tape arms, the barely memorable extra in the 'squad', got so close to a perfect score!?

"Yeah, I got a 70!" Dunce faced made a fist pump.

"Same here!" Raccoon eyes and Shitty Hair joined in the cheers.

"Wow, I barely passed." Tails looked like his name in worry. "60. I cut it too close for comfort."

Come on, where the fuck was he? 67, 64, 60, 55, 50, Fai-His train of thought was cut off, looking and realizing anyone with less than that failed … and he was on that list. "Looks like I failed." Half and Half called out. "I guess my fight with Insa took a bigger toll on our points than I thought."

"Then why the fuck did I LOSE!?" He yelled out. This didn't make any fucking sense!

"Wow, two of the powerhouse trio failed to get their licenses." Grape Shit smugly snorted. "The hierarchy is finally falling apart. Soon the paradigm will fall, and someone smarter, and more handsome will take their place."

"... So just to be clear none of you will get angry at me if I kill him right?" He asked the group. Majority nods confirmed he would be in the clear, as long as Four Eyes and Dodger never found the body.


"Ha, all my students passed the second round, and two of yours didn't." The woman smirked at him.

"Given that means three of yours passed while eighteen of mine passed, I guess that still makes me superior by fifteen instead of seventeen." Aizawa responded, although that wasn't to say he wasn't disappointed. It was a long time coming if he was being fully honest. If you acted less rationally than Suzuki in a crisis, then you need a long, LONG period of self-actualization

"Yeah, you did great with your kids. Just imagine how wonderful our own would be with you as a father. Think about it! You could have a future full of wonderful smiles everyday! It will be like a dream come true!"

"That sounds more like my last nightmare." So many All Mights, so many work hours, not enough sleeping bags. "I guess they'll need more training while we wait for next year."

"This year … everyone will be getting a license if they make it to the Final Exam." They'll get what? "Without All Might we need heroes more than ever. Those that failed will take remedial lessons." That seemed like a disaster in the making.

"The world is changing quickly and rapidly, and we must be prepared to tackle it head on. You young people are the hope of the future, which is why it is imperative that you all become exemplary heroes."

"Hey, your kids throwing a tantrum." Joke pointed down to see Bakugo trying to fight his classmates.

"Let them handle it, they can work it out." Would be a lot of work to go down there and fix all that. They'd survive.

"Oh, so more time with you and me, alone, sitting toge-"

"On second thought, discipline is the key to being a successful teacher." He began moving away from her as fast as possible.

"In order to reach the idyllic future we all strive for, we need as many good heroes as possible." He didn't disagree with Mera's words, but by the looks of Bakugo strangling Mineta's blue face, that future wasn't going to come anytime soon


"Smile and say cheese." They were giving him food? Awesome!

"Cheese! AAHHH" The food was a lie, it was just a flash. "I thought you guys used digital!?"

"For the highest quality, we needed to go a little oldschool…plus this place is expensive, we needed to cut corners somewhere." That made sense. He still needed to learn about saving money on his own without someone else holding onto it. "Okay, just a few more…and here you go! One Provisional License for Suzuki Iruma!" The photographer handed him a plastic card as he left the room. "Next!"

"My own license, huh?" He looked down at the card as he went outside to meet his classmates. It was like he was a part of some kind of club. "So we don't use these to drive anywhere?"

"No Iruma, it's not that type of license." Ochako reminded him. "It just allows you to use your quirk in certain situations."

"Right, right, legally punch people." He could take on villains and not get in trouble, even if he didn't get why yet. "Sorry you didn't get one, Shoto. You're so strong and nice."

"It's fine. I'll be able to join you guys with my own license after a couple of months." His friend nodded. "I should've remembered your advice and just forgot about Insa when he said all that stuff."

"Uh, ignoring him was part of the problem to begin with." Ejiro came up. "Hey look, he's right there." Hey pointed to the tall bald guy.

"HEY, I JUST WANT TO SAY SORRY ABOUT EVERYTHING!" He bowed and smacked his head on the ground. That didn't look healthy. "BUT JUST SO YOU KNOW, NOTHING'S ACTUALLY CHANGED BETWEEN US, I STILL DON'T LIKE YOU…SORRY! SEE YOU AT REMEDIALS!"

"You too, you son of a bitch." When did Shoto curse? "Guess I'll deal with that as it comes."

"At least you'll have some company with you, isn't that right, Bakubro?" Ejiro pointed to the blonde, who went weirdly silent. "Oh no, he's gone full circle again. Everyone, just stay out of his way and don't say a word."

"Never look him in the eyes, it makes you a target." Mina added in for some reason. He didn't see why.

"Well then … let's head out!" Iruma shouted, walking out. "We're gonna go find the League and talk to them. And beat them up if necessary!"

"That sounds semi reasonable, so I'll just focus on that last part!" Toru cheered. "You did it Iruma-kun, you're really looking like a hero."

"Thanks. So do you." He looked back down on his card as she made one of her weird sounds. To think something so little meant he's grown a lot. He felt…proud of himself. It was a great feeling to have.

"Wait, the train station is that way." Iida spoke up.

"Yeah, we're gonna go look for them right?"

"Wait, like, right now right now?" Momo asked.

"Yeah, if we hurry, we can talk to Toga before she disappears." Maybe she'll tell them where they are and they can have a nice dinner together.

"TOGA WAS HERE!?" Every classmate shouted, a few others looking at him.

"Yeah, she took the test like everyone else." He shrugged. Why were they making a big deal out of this? "She looked like Ochako for a bit, before looking like one of those guys with the hats."

"I fucking knew the chick was off." Bakugo growled. "And I can't do anything about it….FUCK this day is the worst!" He didn't see why. They were just gonna talk. Where was she?


"Booyah bitches, I got my license!"

"... Camie Utsushimi got her license, you got zilch." Toga watched as these Shiketsu guys mocked the Shishikura guy for his failure. "She was top of the list too…how did you screw up so badly?"

"I tried to create discipline … clearly there are forces beyond that." The boy tried to hide face. "Obviously the chaos runs deep within the first years of U.A. I shall take note of that for next time."

"Your problem is that you took it as your personal duty to see everyone you doubted fail." Mora chided the meatball guy. "You may not realize this, but you've been influenced by Stain's message."

"Boo, Stain is a total poser." She stated. "As long as you help people, you already are a hero." It's what her Iruma-kins would do! It's what he did for her, regardless of whether or not she was a villain. There were true heroes out there, and she met probably the only one that could love her fully.

"You're absolutely right, Utsushimi-senpai. In my anger, I completely lost sight of that!" The funny Insa guy smashed his head on the ground. It was nice seeing someone look so cute at this school.

"It's cool, you're in your first year, you guys learn a lot." She waved it off. "I'm gonna head guys, it's late and my folks are probably worried. Talk to you later." It was nice putting this face on for a while. It felt like old times, except she didn't absolutely hate every moment she walked and breathed while with these guys.

Sure the school was a bit strict, and completely stupid in not letting anybody date each other, but the fun was real. Maybe when they fixed society, she could hang out with this Camie chick for realsies. Oh well, something to think about later.

"I just wish I could've seen Iruma-kins one last time." She looked at the vile of blood before putting her real face on. "I'll save it for a special occasion, indulge myself." She giggled, pulling out her phone and dialing.

"How did the mission go?"

"Booyah bitches, I got my license!"

"... Camie Utsushimi got her license, you got zilch." Twice in one day, how weird. "Toga, were you successful? How much blood did you get?" Tomura asked, getting straight to the point.

"Oh yeah, super successful. I got so many faces to try on, and no one suspected a thing…except Iruma-kins, but he gave his blood to me before I even asked. Didn't even tell anyone I was here."

"A bleeding heart infected by All Might … it's sad to see how much good the man can corrupt." Yeah, such a shame. If he was like all the other heroes, he'd probably try to tell her to change who she was. But no, he saw who she was and how she loved, and accepted it without a problem. "We'll free him from his chains eventually. Right now, head back to base. Twice says he'll bring a business partner soon.

Goodie, more friends! Hopefully they were cute.


And … there was the bus! She got out from behind a bush, ambushing the kid once he was off. "Hello there again, Suzuki."

"Oh hey, it's you again." He tilted his head. "We seem to run into each other a lot."

"Yeah, I just have so many questions and you answer with a lot of interesting ones." She smiled. "Mind if I ask some more?"

"No problem, not busy with anything at the moment." Looks like he was compliant with or without the triggers.

"So you along with your classmate Bakugo were kidnapped by the League of villains not too long ago. Why do you believe that is?"

"Oh, Tomura just wanted me to join his club because we're able to understand each other. He gets really confused a lot because his sensei is a soul sucking monster who lies to him."

"Oh, you've met his sensei? And have a really dark opinion on him to boot?" From what she understood, this kid was naturally sweet to anybody that so much as said hi to him.

"Yeah, All Forty One. He looks like a big potato head because half of his face is gone and blames Bunny-sensei for it." That was a sentence. "He does really mean things cause he wants to be in control of everything like it's a toy box." The look on the boy got super dark. "He cares about nothing and everyone around him like they're pieces in a game. He deserves nothing but death." Oh, she felt a tingle there. This was something quite interesting.

"So you think there are people that should die? What happened to death being stupid?"

"It's still stupid. Just because the world would be better with him dead doesn't mean it should be like that. That's just how it has to be."

"So death and killing are okay as long as it's for the greater good?" She smirked, closing in on the next big catch.

"No, but it's like animals in a jungle. They kill to survive."

Totally could spin that for a Muscular comparison, but she would hold off. The MLA was right, she needed a lead. "So do you have a connection to All Might, since the villain in question blames him for it?"

"Yeah, he's been my teacher even before U.A…"

"No, no, there's something even deeper than that, right?" She leaned in. "He could have gone for any student in 1-A or UA if that was the case, why specifically you?" She got close. "Tell me, pretty please?"

"O…" The boy looked sick. "Ok…." The boy turned to the bushes and emptied his stomach. "S-sorry, I..I don't think I can talk about this anymore. I'm heading to my dorm." He left before she could get a word in edgewise. The trigger failed …

Damn it, looks like all that time at U.A was giving the kid some kind of backbone. It was great for the story, the kid fighting for his freedom only to die before he could experience it fully, but it was going to make information diving harder. He was in the dorm system now. Communication became harder … unless he was forced to leave. She smirked as she walked away, maybe Trumpet could drum up some work study documents.
