Yami Luna Kitsune: *munchmunchswallow* great chapter

wow, katsuki ISN'T being an explosive jackass. is the world coming to an end?!

wow, surprising that toru is nervous. she's more like mina, a social butterfly

oh, she's bold

tbh, I'm surprised that toru's NOT visible, since izuku made it so that she'd have control. (or is she visible at this point?)

i'm with izuku on this, tofu SUX (and I haven't had it, even though I know it's tasteless cardboard at BEST)

i'm with izuku AND toru. toru REALLY needs that upgrade

interesting match-up for the exercise, along with their opponents

eager for more

Dragon Emperor0: Izuku showed her how to reflect light around her to make herself semi visible, but as of right now, she's still invisible.

ThermalsniperN7: People can be nervous when they're confessing to somebody they have romantic feelings for, and Toru is no exception. Also, yes, tofu is gross to us, too.

shirkahn: Nice update. Suggestion for Izuku: a media player for him to listen to. I don't know about him, but I find it easier to focus when I got good beats to listen to. Not to mention it would protect his ears from loud noises (my ears are super sensitive to loud sounds, not enough to make me panic, but enough to make me flinch; also one thing a bully liked to do to me in high school was play a high frequency ringtone called "The mosquito" to irritate me, it didn't sound like typical mosquito buzzing, but pulses that actually hurt when I heard them). Anyways, looking forward to the next chapter.

ThermalsniperN7: I myself have been using my phone to play sleep music to help me sleep better. I've come to find sleeping in silence difficult, so this is a remedy. Also, I relate HF ringtone thing; there was one guy in my old GED class that played some high pitched noise on the bus I took to the terminal that wasn't really annoying, but it did stop whenever I looked at the back of the bus, which I found sus.

Dragon Emperor0: Same, and you may be onto something with the media player, according to my mom—who works with Autistic kids—those tend to really help.

XenoBlaze: Thanks for the update. Hopefully the other sins fics will be updated soon.

Dragon Emperor0: Lion Sin just went up.

Knightmare Lord: Kinda weird to see Mineta being so respectful to Izuku

ThermalsniperN7: I understand where you're coming from; It is odd.

Dragon Emperor0: Eh.

3headed-dragon: I have a niece who is on the spectrum and when she's really into or focused on one thing she'll ignore everything else going on around her. So I can absolutely see this Izuku not being phased by Toru being naked when he's focused on something else. My niece has complained about being hungry but when her favorite show came on she completely ignored the food we gave her until we started to hand feed her while she continued to watch her show.

ThermalsniperN7: I forgot to do things I've been asked to do a couple of times in recent years, so it's nice to get some understanding.

Dragon Emperor0: Glad to see that we're doing so well.

Shin: I rather like the fact that Izuku went out and got special, rather expensive glasses that let him see Toru. Sure it seems like it's going fast but we do have to remember that by this point Toru and Izuku HAVE known each other for more than a couple of months before UA, it's not like they just met. I am curious as to what Shoto seems to have against Izuku though, maybe since he's seen what he can do mind reading wise with that first day with Aizawa, perhaps he's worried about it being used on him and the whole thing with his family. Just a spitball of an idea but I'm looking forward to find out what the real reason is he's glaring at Izuku.

Dragon Emperor0: Thanks for the feedback.

ThermalsniperN7: Your theory regarding Shoto's glare is solid enough, too.

It was after school one day and Izuku was currently standing on a street corner while he fidgeted with what looked to be a fidget cube in his hand.

He was currently dressed in an outfit not too dissimilar to his hero costume, but rather than green, this particular outfit was a mixture of purple and light purple bordering on pink or magenta.

"Did I keep you waiting?" A familiar voice agreed, causing him to turn and see Toru walking up to him. She was wearing a white shirt, a pair of blue jeans and pink sneakers.

Like in school, Izuku was wearing a non combat version of his invisibility detection glasses so he could see her, and upon seeing that her outfit did quite a good job of making her look even more cute and feminine than usual—which made the boy blush despite him still being new to the whole concept of romance and romantic attraction in general.

"N-No. Not long." The Goat Sin replied, managing to keep himself from stuttering too much.

"Oh, what relief!" The girl sighed as the two began walking together. "So, I was thinking that since we have a bit before dinner this evening, we could go to a Meet the Cats adoption event at the JSPCA." She told him.

"Oh, that sounds fun." Izuku nodded, having a fondness for cats.

"Great! Let's go!" The invisible girl chirped as she led the Goat Sin along.

(Later)

Later on after arriving at the JSPCA headquarters, Izuku and Toru soon went into the room where the meet the cats event was going on.

Needless to say, the invisible girl was absolutely bursting with excitement as she was eager to gush over and dote on all the cute cats and equally adorable kittens.

In particular there was a very fluffy kitten named Toji who seemed to really enjoy attention, and Izuku couldn't help but notice that he was actually a bit vain.

Toji was a sun gold, and white kitten with orange stripes and a small spot on his chest—but was also flat faced on account of being a flat faced breed.

Toru quite liked him, so she was quick to hold him.

Second was a smaller an orange and white angora cat named Tama who seemed to really like girls, as she immediately made herself comfortable in Toru's lap while Toji enjoyed head scratches from Izuku.

But the one that got the Goat Sin's attention the most wasn't these two: but a completely different cat.

It was a brown and white tortoise cat that was lounging comfortably on one of the small beds. She was snoozing away without a care in the world.

Above all else, Izuku felt something special about this one cat.

Walking up to the sleeping feline, he began to gently stroke her back, which caused her to unconsciously turn and show him her belly.

"I like this one…" The Sin of Lust mused. "She reminds me of myself." He added as he picked her up.

"Ooh, that's Karin. She's one of the most laid back cats we have." One of the employees told him informatively. "She's also one of our kittens who we suspect has autism as well." She added as Karin woke up in Izuku's arms and soon started staring at him with the biggest green eyes he'd ever seen on a cat.

"I'll take her." Izuku said instantly, a strong sense of kinship forming in him with the little girl.

"Make it three!" Toru chimed in as she held both Toji and Tama, who were very much acting like they'd chosen her.

"You'll need to fill out an application, but I think we can work something out." The woman nodded with a smile.

"What do we need to do?" Izuku questioned, displaying a hidden desire to take Karin home.

"Come with me, we'll get the paperwork for you." The woman told him as she led the couple back the main desk.

(Later)

Fast forward about half an hour later, and both Izuku and Toru were walking hand in hand with a crate stroller behind them where their three kittens were taking a nap together.

"Luckily, I let my mother know what was going to happen. She's okay with a cat being adopted." Izuku commented.

"I asked my parents before I left, so they know exactly what I'm bringing home." Toru nodded as they reached a nearby cafe, specifically a cat cafe.

This allowed them to sit down together and have their date without having to worry about their kittens missing them.

"So I've finally sent in the request forms for my new costume. It's being made right now." Toru told him.

"Good. That will solve one issue." Izuku nodded. "What kind of design did you go with?" He asked.

"Just a simple sleeveless, short leg length bodysuit that matches my gloves and boots. Nothing took flashy." She shrugged. "Though, when I showed the concept art to Mina and the other girls, she suggested I add this to the part of the suit that forms a neck collar." She sighed as she showed him a picture on her phone, which showed a small heart shaped dog tag that read Toru x Izuku on it. "It was so embarrassing…" She muttered, blushing.

"... You'd look better if that was a cat collar." Izuku said after a beat passed.

This caused Toru to freeze, her face turning a bright pink as she looked at the Goat Sin in shock.

"What? Izuku… I didn't know you were into kinky stuff like that that." She uttered nervously, her fingers fidgeting as she looked off to the side.

"… Kinky?" The boy questioned, his head tilted in confusion.

'Oh no…' The invisible girl groaned mentally. "Izuku, when a guy gets a girl a collar or vice versa that typically means that they want their relationship to one where one has a degree of consensual ownership over the other." She explained.

"Oh." Izuku blinked. "... I'd rather not have that." He amended.

"Well it can also be just a way of displaying that your partner is off the market as well." The girl amended, getting another confused look. "Meaning it'll deter anyone from approaching them romantically or otherwise." She elaborated.

"I see." Izuku hummed. "... Would you ever show interest in such a thing?" He questioned.

"I mean… It does sound kinda sexy, I won't lie." She admitted with a blush as she sipped her coffee nervously.

"I won't pressure you into it." The Goat Sin told her.

Toru only nodded as they just went back to their date with not much else happening between them, but in the back of her mind, Toru was imagining what she'd look like with a collar on.

(Later)

"Well, my house is this way." Izuku said as the two headed home, little Karin in his coat sleeping safely. "I'll see you tomorrow." He nodded.

"Wait, Izuku!" Toru said, causing the boy to stop and look at her, right as she got on her tip toes and kissed him.

"Oh!" The Goat Sin gasped, a little surprised.

"That date was really fun. Thanks for being there." She told him with a smile.

"You're… You're welcome." The boy nodded, now blushing brightly at having been kissed by his girlfriend so suddenly.

With that cute little exchange done, the two of them parted ways and went home.

(Later)

When Izuku entered his apartment, he found his mom waiting for him. When she spotted Karin, her face lit up.

"Oh! Is this the little one you mentioned earlier?" She asked, taking the little kitten into her arms as the little cat stared at her with her large eyes.

"Yes. I was told she was diagnosed with autism, so she seemed like a good match." Her son nodded in reply.

"Well no matter if she is or not, we'll make it work." Inko smiled, holding up little Karin in her arms as the kitten stared at her, before snuggling up to her.

Things would definitely be fine.

(Timeskip)

It was the next day at school and everyone was trying to get to class, all while they were hounded by what looked to be a mob of reporters from various media outlets.

This was the scene that Izuku walked up to on his way to class that morning.

"Hey, kid! What's learning from All Might like?!" One of the reporters questioned.

"Sorry, I have no time for the press." Izuku responded as he quickly walked off.

"Well that's rude." The reporter muttered.

Getting into his classroom, Izuku sat down in his usual spot and his mind began to wander as he worked on the sketches of his classmates that accompanied his analysis on their quirks in his notebook.

His thoughts soon wandered to what Toru had said about how a person giving their significant other a collar could be seen as a way of 'marking one's territory' so to speak, and as he comes to ruminate on this concept for a bit longer, he soon failed to notice how he was actually starting to draw a collar around the neck of his sketch of Toru.

It wasn't until he'd actually finished it that he noticed.

This immediately caused the Sin of Lust to want to blush immediately upon realizing what he'd done—but the more he looked at the image, the more he seemed to think that it was actually quite cute.

He quickly hid it before anyone could see it. No reason to give anyone ammo to tease him with, after all.

As he did this, he failed to notice Aizawa coming in and telling the class about the need to pick a house representative—and after tuning out everyone saying they wanted to be the class rep—he heard the relevant portion of it being decided by voting—which was decided on by Iida.

Izuku decided to abstain from running for the position, since he hated politics.

(Later)

The election concluded a few minutes later, and after convincing Toru to vote for Iida rather than herself or him and her doing the same with Ochako—Iida ended up winning with a total of three votes.

Momo ended up getting the same amount, so Aizawa added in the last vote that gave Iida the position.

"Well, at least it's resolved." The Sin of Lust shrugged.

"Tell me about it." Katsuki grunted in agreement.

"Now, we'll be resuming regular classes, but be mindful that hero basic training will be shorter today on account of tomorrow's lesson." Aizawa told them.

"What is tomorrow's lesson, exactly?" Izuku wondered.

"Rescue training. We'll be going to an off campus facility for it." Aizawa replied.

"Understood." The Goat Sin nodded.

(Later)

It was now lunch time, and everyone was talking about the little election they had just held.

"I was quite surprised that I got multiple votes, to be perfectly honest." The speedster admitted as he ate a plate of Japanese rice curry.

"You're the most qualified of us all, from my perspective anyone else would have done a terrible job at it." Izuku admitted before turning to Ochako and Toru. "No offense intended." He amended.

"None taken." The two girls shrugged nonchalantly.

"You didn't seem to be fond of the position, Midoriya. Why?" Iida wondered.

"Because I prefer action over politics." The Goat Sin replied simply, not really having any desire to continue the conversation any further.

Though, something else did come to mind.

Using his quirk, Izuku zapped Iida briefly and gleaned the info he needed before speaking.

"Iida, your family runs a hero agency, correct?" The Goat Sin asked.

"Um, yes. Why?" The blue haired runner asked in reply with a blink.

"Would that mean that you're related to the Turbo Hero Ingenium? You do have similar quirks." The Sin of Lust said, noting how similar the two were.

"Wait, what?!" Ochako gasped, her head snapping to Iida.

"I was worried that people would treat me different if they knew about my family…" Iida sighed in dismay. "But yes, Tensei Iida, also known as Ingenium is my elder brother—and as the second eldest, I strive to be just like him." He nodded.

"Sounds like you've got a lot of pressure, then." Toru noted.

Right as she said this, though, alarms started going off all over the school, and as everyone started reacting—they soon started cramming into the halls—becoming an absolute mob.

"Agh, this is incredibly unpleasant!" Izuku grunted as he was pushed around in the mob.

"We need to calm everyone down! Before we get trampled!" Ochako exclaimed.

Iida, meanwhile seemed to have noticed something outside the window, causing Izuku to follow his gaze and see what he saw—that the security breach was caused by the press.

"Iida!" Izuku called. "If you can get up to a high enough spot, I'll calm everyone so you can tell them what's going on!" He added.

"On it!" The bespectacled speedster nodded. "Uraraka, touch my hand!" He called out to the brunette.

"Got it!" Ochako nodded as she reached out and just barely touched his hand, causing him to float.

"And now…" The Sin of Lust said as he gathered up his power. "Invasion, Special move: Calming Aurora!" He called as a light of varying shades of pink burst from his body, hitting everyone around him.

The effect was instantaneous and made everyone calm down.

"Everyone, listen!" Iida called, seeing that Izuku had done his part as everyone looked at him. "It's only the press outside! Keep calm; We are UA students, and we need to show that we are the best of the best!" He told them as clearly as he could.

This caused everyone to start muttering as they slowly started to feel more at ease, right as the cops arrived.

"Finally, shit show's over." Katsuki sighed.

(Timeskip)

It was the next day and everyone was gearing up for the off campus class trip, but as they did, Izuku soon took notice of Toru's new costume, the one that she told him about during their date.

He had to admit, the new outfit certainly looked good on her. She still wore the boots and gloves, mostly so other people knew where she was.

"I see the new costume came in." Iida noted, having followed Izuku's lead and got a pair of refraction lessening glasses as well.

"Yes, I'm glad you were able to get it completed." The green haired boy smiled.

"Yeah. It's certainly better than what I started out with. Much more comfy, too." The invisible girl nodded.

"Yeah, skin tight suits aren't really my style, but it's at least practical." Ochako admitted, getting nods from the other three.

(Later)

After loading the bus…

"The bus' open layout ruined my boarding strategy…" Iida groaned in dismay.

"It's not that big of a deal." Izuku told him.

"He's right. Bus layouts rarely matter anyway." Toru shrugged.

"If we're pointing out the obvious, then there's something I'd like to say." Tsu noted as she looked at Izuku. "About you, actually." She continued.

"Hmmm?" The boy hummed.

"That power you have, the one that you used on the tests. It's a lot like All Might's." The frog girl noted. "How'd you get it? Does your memory quirk let you copy stuff like that with your doll body?" She asked.

"I've never really paid attention to that detail. It could, but I'm not sure right now." Izuku replied thoughtfully.

"It must be nice having an emitter type quirk, you can do a bunch of flashy stuff with it." Kirishima noted. "My hardening's super strong and can destroy bad guys in a fight, but it's not all that impressive." He hummed, demonstrating his quirk on his arm.

"Actually, there are situations where your quirk could be ideal." Izuku corrected. "Such as shielding people from projectile fire or acting as a battering ram to get through a barricade protecting villains." He added.

"You think so? Seems I could be a more popular hero if I had something flashier." The redhead hummed in surprise. "But if there's anyone here with Pro quirks, it's Todoroki and Bakugo." He noted.

"Yeah, but Bakugo's always angry, so he'll never be that popular." Tsu interjected.

"What'd you say?! I'll kick your ass!" The Pomeranian barked.

"See?" The frog girl remarked, her point proven.

"Ya know, we basically just met you." Kaminari noted. "So it's kinda telling that your personality is flaming crap mixed with garbage." He added.

"You're going to regret applying to this school you loser, I'll kill you!" Katsuki barked.

"Well, Kacchan getting teased is a new sight." Izuku mused.

(Later)

Upon arriving at the off campus facility, they were all met by another pro, the Space Hero Thirteen, who led them inside the building, revealing that it was basically a Heroes in training disaster theme park called the USJ.

Everyone else seemed to think it was like Universal Studios Japan, but Izuku didn't really see the connection.

He also ended up tuning out a speech that Thirteen did about how their quirks could be dangerous, since that was a moot subject to him, and he was far more interested in the lights and fountain acted weird, which gained his attention in the speech's place.

"That's not normal…" He muttered, narrowing his eyes.

This caused everyone to look where he was looking and saw a large purple portal suddenly opening up and several people started walking out of it.

"Everyone stay together! Thirteen, protect the students!" Aizawa barked.

"What is that?" Kirishima questioned. "Has the training started already? I thought we were rescuing people?" He asked.

"Stay back!" The erasure hero snapped, putting on his goggles. "This is real! Those are villains!" He added, looking like he was ready to fight. "I'll have to hold them off." He told them.

As if he read his teacher's thoughts, Izuku started walking past him.

"There's a simpler way." The Goat Sin said as he suddenly started walking towards where the villains were, much to everyone's shock and the villain's confusion.

"What the? Who's this shrimp?" One of the villains who had gun barrels for fingers questioned.

"Didn't the intel say that All Might and Thirteen were the only one's here? Why's a kid heading our way?" A woman with ammo belts for hair wondered.

"Don't know, but if he thinks he can beat us, he's dead!" Another guy with horns added.

Then Izuku manifested his dual bows and took aim at the villains.

"Sacred Treasure: Double Bow Harlit." The Sin of Lust said as his energy bows appeared. "Now, Rewrite Light." He intoned as the drawstrings pulled back before arrows of his power shot everywhere.

About three quarters of the villains were struck by the attack, and when they were hit, they paused.

"Um, Midoriya, you know those arrows didn't do anything, don't you man?" Kirishima called.

However, seconds later when the mental rewrite set in, they started attacking each other.

"Bazinga." The bespectacled boy beamed with a salute as Aizawa landed next to him.

"Did you rewrite their minds to turn them on each other?" He questioned.

"Yes. I knew that it would lighten the load drastically." Izuku nodded in reply. "It's a rather simple trick, I made them view each other as enemies rather than Allies." He explained.

"Right, by altering their perception." Eraserhead nodded.

"Shhh." The Goat Sin shushed him, a finger to his lips as he adjusted his glasses. "This is only a stop gap. Once it wears off they'll return to normal. Moreover, their memory of being under this spell will also be erased." He added.

"So better to work fast. Got it." The underground hero nodded as he put his goggles on.

Izuku, meanwhile, just kept walking towards the main center of the villains, avoiding the criminals as they sent each other flying, even stepping on several of them who fell unconscious in his way, or sidestepped a water splash when a few were hurled into the shipwreck zone. His stride was steady and even with very little rocking, like a T-700 on a mission, with a blank expression to match.

"That kid… He's different from the others." The hand villain noted, seeing Izuku's stride.

"Yes, he seems almost… Emotionless." The Warpgate villain nodded.

Before they could say anything, Izuku suddenly rushed forward at blinding speed and actually punched the Hand Villain so hard that the wind was knocked out of his lungs—and then sent him flying back with an uppercut to the chin, knocking the hand on his face off as he landed flat on his back.

"What the–?!" He gasped in shock and disbelief as he tried to sit up. There was no way it was normal for a kid that lanky to be able to hit that hard..

"Analysis: Target physical threat of bodily harm, negligible. Theory: Target not physically powerful. Hypothesis: Brute force may not be necessary." The boy hummed to himself as he stood there, ready to attack again if need be.

"Nomu, subdue him!" The hand villain barked, drawing Izuku's attention to a hulking brute in brown cargo shorts with black skin, a bird beak and an exposed brain.

"Interesting." The boy hummed as the beast attempted to attack him, only for him to leap over its arm and onto its shoulders—and then place his hands on the sides of its head. "Hijack!" He intoned.

There was a pause before the hulk started to attack its supposed masters instead of him.

"What is going on?!" The neatly dressed villain exclaimed in shock as he teleported out of the way of a punch.

"Eliminate." The Sin of Lust ordered as he pointed at the two villains, snapping his fingers.

Nomu roared before he charged at the two leaders and blinding speeds, smashing and trying to grab them, using his brute strength to try and take them down, while the Hand and Warp villains tried to stay out of his grasp.

"Nomu, what are you doing?! Attack the brat, not us!" The hand villain shouted, but was ignored.

"He won't listen to you." The Goat Sin said matter of factly, pushing up his glasses. "My hijack allows me to take control of the minds of whomever I use it on for a limited period of time, depending on their intellectual level." He explained. "The weaker their mind, the stronger my control." He continued. "Moreover, given that Nomu is essentially mindless, this means that I can completely control him indefinitely if I so choose." He added.

"Blast it all!" The warp villain growled, seeing that their secret weapon was literally stolen from them.

"Kurogiri, do something!" The hand villain yelled at his compatriot, who warped him out of the way of another strike from the controlled Nomu.

"I'm not sure what I can do without sending Nomu elsewhere, Tomura Shigaraki!" Kurogiri exclaimed in reply, wasting out of the way of another strike.

"Who cares where you send him! Just get him away from here so we can deal with this kid first!" Shigaraki shouted as he jumped back again.

Seeing that there was no other choice, Kurogiri opened a wormhole beneath Nomu and sent him somewhere outside the USJ. It wasn't ideal, but it was better than the Goat Sin controlling it.

"Okay, I've had just about enough of your cheat code using ass!" Shigaraki snapped, jabbing a finger at Izuku. "Just who the hell are you?!" He shouted.

"I am Izuku Midoriya, the Sin of Lust, The Goat Sin." The walking description of autism said as he struck a W hand salute pose. "Sparkle!" He smiled.

"... This kid is one banana short of a fruit salad." Tomura commented, sweatdropping.

"I know you are, but what am I?" Izuku questioned, causing the two to look at him. "Heh heh heh, Bazinga." He chuckled.

"... Scatter the students?" Kurogiri asked after a beat passed.

"Scatter the students." Tomura nodded in reply.

However…

BOOM!

Two explosions could be heard as both Nomu and an unknown figure suddenly burst through the west wall and main entrance respectively… And as the dust settled, it was revealed that it was All Might who arrived.

"Oh, hello, All Might." Izuku said as he looked at his teacher. "Uh-oh!" He uttered, hopping on his heels as he popped out of the way of Nomu who–now no longer under his direct control–started attacking All Might.

The Sin of Lust would've taken control of the hulk again, but there was no room for him to do so.

"We're not letting you do that again!" Shigaraki yelled as he lunged at the boy, who kept avoiding his strikes, jumping further and further back until he actually ended up near the entrance again where his class and teachers were.

"Midoriya, are you alright?!" Momo asked in concern, trying to find any potential wounds.

"Affirmative." The boy nodded as he dusted himself off. "Though I would advise that we focus on keeping these two occupied while All Might handles their companion Nomu. Assuming you've already sent for reinforcements, it's already just a matter of time." He stated as he brought out his Sacred Treasure again.

"Easily done!" Katsuki smirked, popping some explosions.

"Let's do this!" Kirishima nodded as they lunged forward, attacking Tomura while Aizawa kept Kurogiri from using his quirk.

"Now Thirteen!" The Erasure hero called.

"On it!" The Space Hero exclaimed as she pointed her index finger at Kurogiri and activated her quirk.

"Ngh! I won't let you subdue me!" The warp user growled defiantly.

"No, that would be unnecessary." Izuku nodded as he pointed his bow at the warpgate. "This should be good enough." He added as the drawstrings went back. "Haywire!" He called as the arrows hit Kurogiri, causing his powers to go haywire.

"What–What have you done to my quirk?!" The ominous sounding villain gasped, unable to use his warping correctly.

"I simply caused your quirk to go into an indiscriminate feedback loop of subconscious autopilot usage. Essentially making it go haywire." The Goat Sin replied. "In fact, it should be turning on you and your friend right about…" He noted, trailing off as All Might suddenly came in, swinging Nomu around like a ragdoll before he used him as a baseball bat to send all three villains flying towards the roof. "Now." He added.

It was then that, against his thoughts, Kurogiri opened up portals for himself, Tomura and Nomu that sent them to parts unknown.

"Was that your doing, young Midoriya?" The No. 1 hero questioned.

"It was, and it worked rather well." Izuku nodded in reply. "Though I think it's safe to say class is canceled. We should head back to the main campus." He added as the others made their way outside, right as Iida got back with reinforcements.

"Yes, I think you may be right." The Symbol of Peace nodded as the teachers rushed in to get the stragglers under control, all while the students breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

"Midoriya? I take back everything I said about you being weird." Kaminari sighed. "As far as I'm concerned? That's a good thing!" He added, wrapping an arm around the boy's shoulder.

"Trust me when I say that you've got the exact right idea!" Katsuki laughed.

"Let's hear three cheers of gratitude for our comrade Izuku, The Goat Sin!" Tokoyami called.

The teachers heard the cheers for Izuku as the boy was hoisted into the air by his classmates while they dealt with stragglers and could tell that the students would be fine. The bespectacled doll-like teen was unable to stop the smile and laughter that rose on his face as his friends hugged and praised him.

It seemed like the Goat Sin of Lust wasn't so unlike his friends after all–as it turns out–being different wasn't that bad after all.

Dragon Emperor0: Just thought I'd leave this chapter off with a positive message for all our Autistic readers. Let me add my own by sharing something that my mom once told me: People on the spectrum may be wired a bit differently than us, but at the end of the day, we all have the same wires in our heads regardless of who we are–so even if you think or act different, you still feel the same things. That is to say: We all have the same feelings, so it's important to be kind and respect them–whether you are neurotypical or divergent–We're all human.

ThermalsniperN7: Didn't get that in a couple of schools I went to, but I digress. Anyway, The USJ fight went WAY differently than it normally does; When you have a quirk that can affect memories, you can turn any army against itself. Mindless Nomus are also easy to control, so that's one key flaw in them.

Dragon Emperor0: A problem that The Witness doesn't have to deal with when it comes to the Taken for some ungodly reason. Anyway, in case you're wondering, yes–Karin, Toji and Tama are all references to Jaiden Animation's cats Tostada, Frasier and Taylor. Tostada is literally the description of autism, how could we not include her as a reference?

ThermalsniperN7: Yeah, for me, that cat is basically a kindred soul. Including a reference to her is a must. Anyway, see you guys next time.
