Students went to the dorms.
"What do you think happened to sensei?" Hitoshi asked.
"We were running in hot weather. I think his brain got a little mushy from that. I mean, even my head still hurts a little bit." Izuku responded.
"What if forces of Darkness tried to interfere?" Fumikage wondered. "Perhaps a force that is beyond the perception of us, mere mortals?"
"I think you are overthinking this, man." Setsuna replied. "It was probably just a mix of tiredness, anxiety and overheating."
After gathering in the living room, they decided to try the election process again. This time, people were given papers and pens to tick the boxes. Momo graciously provided everything necessary. Most people were okay with this, although some were skeptical about honesty of this ordeal. Yaoyorozu won with three votes, runner ups Midoriya and Monoma, each with two. Two consecutive wins in rock paper scissors meant green head earned a spot as vice representative.
"Before everyone goes to do their own thing, I'd like everyone to make announcements if they wish so." Raven haired girl declared. "I will begin: if you struggle with a particular subject, especially hard science, do not hesitate to ask help from me. I will assist however I can."
"I've made a group chat so we can always be in touch. I'll grant Midoriya and Yaoyorozu admin privileges so if you want a custom username, let them know." Kendou spoke up. "Also, talk to me if you want to be taught karate. Just don't expect to chop steel on your first day."
"If you need help with testing your quirk or looking for alternative applications, I will always be here to help you grow." Neito said.
"Wow." Ochako thought. "So many helpful folks. This class would be perfect if not for certain individuals."
"I am going to spend most of the time working out and perfecting my quirk. Join me if you want the same." Romero showed his scary smile. "I'm sure some of you could use a dino boost."
Shinsou and Tsunotori paled a little bit.
"That sounds interesting." Tenya tapped his chin. "I wonder how Engine would work when combined with fast or strong species of dinosaurs."
"Snipe-sensei is opening up an extracurricular on firearm usage." Brando shot a finger gun. "He said I should let you know."
Some classmates (including Pony for some reason) looked at him disapprovingly.
"I got permission to use a piece of land behind our dorms for a garden. Let me know if you wish to enjoy the peace of plant life." Ibara calmly stated.
"Guys!" Camie raised her hand. "Since we are going to live together for 3 years, how about we drop the formalities and just call each other by names?"
This initiative was approved by the representatives.
"You can call me Yaomomo, he he he."
"So cute!" Pony squealed.
"I have something to say as well." All eyes were on Izuku. "Tomorrow I will bring quirks from Tartarus. Yes, THAT Tartarus. Who's willing to help me test them?"
Half of people raised hands, other half seemed hesitant.
"I could really use something physical." Shinsou was excited. "Something that doesn't depend on specific conditions."
"I always wondered what would have happened if I had a different quirk." Kendou confessed.
"It doesn't fucking matter! I'll beat all of you either way!" Katsuki barked before storming off to train.
"Futile effort. I will not need father's fire even if everyone in the class ends up with several quirks." Todoroki internally concluded.
"Will we be able to keep them? Imagine if I had Glamour and something to pack a punch! Pop and Mom would be proud!"
"It all depends on how this whole experiment turns out for us and the affected prisoners."
"This whole ordeal smells like trouble." Momo said. "From an ethical viewpoint, at least."
"I hope their souls will not be damaged by losing parts of their body." Shiozaki put her hands together. "I will pray for their well being."
"Go head, Midoriya!" Neito aggressively shook his hand. "Anything that can make our class stronger is a win in my book!"
Everyone went about their business. Class president grabbed a box of jasmine tea from her stash and went to visit her homeroom teacher.
"Toyomitsu-sensei!" She sounded happy. "Please, take this tea. It always helps me calm down when I'm nvervous."
"Thank you, my dear." He put the box near his other food. "I don't know what happened to me today. It's like my eyes were completely broken. Must be first year anxiety."
"First year?"
"Yes. I got this position after Eraserhead expelled his whole class last year. There were rumours that he did just to get paid for doing nothing. He told me they had no potential, but I just don't get it. How could 20 people who outperformed thousands of others physically and mentally not have any potential? Perhaps he and I live in different universes."
"Do you know what happened to that class?" Her tone got more serious.
"They were re-enrolled but got a black mark. I don't think you need further explanations."
"Give a man an inch..." Yaomomo clenched her fist. "I'm glad you are with us then!" The girl beamed with excitement. Please, sign my encyclopedia."
"Of course." He put an autograph on the blank page
"Why didn't UA fire Aizawa-sama if he was bringing bad publicity?"
"Erasure is a very rare quirk, and it's kind of necessary in a learning environment. That's what I think."
"So he is only here for something he was born with? People like him are what others might see me as. I need to be better than that."
"In any case, I was chosen as class representative, with Midoriya being second in command. We didn't have any bizarre issues when voting."
"That's good to hear."
"Sensei." She looked away and rubbed her arm. "I'm a bit scared of Midoriya and his quirk. Does that make me a bad person?"
"To be honest, he scares me a little bit as well, however, he is not the only one. I had to work with many people who I personally dislike for whatever reason, but I never let it get in the way of work. That's something all of you will have to learn."
"Alright. May I... have a hug?"
"Sure." The BMI hero hugged the girl.
Daigo, Neito and Ochako went to apply for Sogeki Jusei's extra class. They asked Pony to join but refused on the grounds that "Not all Americans like guns". Snipe had a whole shooting range arranged at Ground Delta, with moving targets and everything.
"To be honesnt, I didn't expect any of the first years to come here at first. Most folks in Japan views firearms as police tools only. Is there a reason you two plan to use guns? Your quirks don't seem to rely on weapons."
"What else am I supposed to do when people are outside of my effective range?" Brando shrugged. "Run at them like an idiot? It's better to have a plan B and never use it than get stuck on plan A."
"I actually don't really like guns." Uraraka nervously giggled. "The shooting other people part, I mean. I asked Support Department to make something with adjustable recoil so I can fly with Zero Gravity. Might as well learn proper usage if they make something gun shaped."
"Due to the nature of my quirk, it is very important for me to be as adaptable as possible with all sorts of equipment. There are quite a few gun adjacent quirks even here at UA, so I expect to see them in the field when we graduate."
"Understood. We will begin with basic safety precautions: never point a gun at something unless you are inteding to shoot it; always assume other guns are loaded and have safery off; only put finger on the trigger when are you ready to shoot."
Uraraka and Monoma looked at Brando.
"Now, onto specifics..."
Izuku wanted to visit Setsuna, who this this time was fully clothed. Her room was mostly green in color, with various plushies, a pet lizard, a lot of makeupon the desk and some weird manga sticking from under her bed.
"Hey, there Freckles!"
"Hi. I wanted to learn more about you and your quirk."
"Hmm, let's see." Her detached and started flying around the boy. "I was at the top of my class in middle school, which is also when I had a gyaru phase. I freaking love dinosaurs. My pet is named Rex. I like cute boys. My suit was supposed to be green but last minute I changed it to better stand out. As for my quirk..."
Notebook materialised in the boy's hand.
"It was really hard to control when I was little. Body parts would fall off when I was asleep or distracted. It was kind of scary, but that's in the past. Right now I can detach myself into 25 pieces and send them as far as I want, although having them fly drains stamina."
"You can control every part at once, right?"
"It's kind of tricky, but yes."
"Do you sense what's going on around each part? Like, I tried to put ice on one part, you would be able to tell it's getting colder."
She nodded.
"You said your body parts can regenerate?"
"Yup! As long as I have time, I can bounce back from any wound. I barely visit doctors."
"This class is packed with awesome quirks! That's UA fot you." Midoriya thought.
"You know, I think your quirk can be used to heal others."
"How?" The eye went back in its place.
"Imagine if a villain broke Iida's leg. If I gave him Lizard Tail Splitter, he could remove the broken limb, have it destoyed and then make a new one."
"Oh my Gosh!" Tokage split into pieces from realisation. "That's amazing! We could help Recovery Girl together. Granted, he'd have to suffer throught the pain of getting his part destroyed, but trust me, it's worth having a perfectly functionong body."
"I'm glad for your enthusiasm, Setsuna."
"Just call me Set. Hey, are you single right now?" The girl grinned.
"Uh... Yes?"
"Then we should date." She pushed him against a wall with a kabedon, floating to appear taller.
"I... er... un..." Izuku was red like a chili pepper from this unexpected outcome.
"Come on, you are cute, I am gorgeous, we are both smart and green. I see no downsides."
"O-Okay?" The boy wanted this embarrassing moment to end.
"Great!" She patted him on the head. "I can't wait for our first date."
"Date?"
The rest of the day was spent studying and mentally preparing for the incoming prison visit. The boy made a video call to his parents.
"Hi."
"Hi! Look, Pumpkin." Inko showed him a basic sketch of her son. "Haruka came and gave us this drawing. She said it's for her hero."
"Aaa". The boy was overwhelmed by cuteness.
"We will accompany you to the Tartarus visit tomorrow. It'll probably be out last meeting for a while." Hisashi notified Izuku.
"I wish things didn't turn out this way." Mother gulped.
"Cheer up, mom. I'm going to help heroes get stronger." Son tried to improve her mood.
"Hopefully."
"Do you have any news."
"Yeah... I'm dating a girl from my class."
"Wow."
"How did it happen?" Father was curious.
"She pushed me against a wall and told me to date her. I agreed."
"You definitely take after your mother, my boy. Let's hope she isn't as bad as Mitsuki."
"Hisashi!" Inko was annoyed at her husband disrespecting her friend.
"Have you seen her son? I will not stand having a Katsuki among my grandchildren."
"Dad, I think you are getting ahead of yourself."
"I have an idea!" Papa Midoriya pointed upwards. "Tell her to go to the prisom with us. We'll see if she's a coward and if she is cute."
"Guys..." Kid tried to intervene.
"I'll have to agree, Pumpkin." Inko responded. "I know this isn't the best way for us to meet, but I want to be sure in her as a person."
"Excellent! You see tomorrow, my boy." The father ended the call.
