The three heroes-in-training were discussing, as they dined on ramen, the topic of the appearance of Yu's glasses and how her presentation differed from Mount Lady. While Mount Lady's public image came off as vain, flashy, and somewhat selfish, the real Yu Takeyama has a totally different energy. For the most part, Yu Takeyama was a humble and down-to-earth person, she had even laughed when they believed her public image was a major part of her personality. "No, no no." Yu adjusted her glasses to wipe tears from her eyes. "I guess you guys have not gotten into the importance of a secret identity, huh?"

"Well no..." Mina said, thinking back to the classes they were taking. "We had just picked our Hero names a couple of days ago."

"Well..." Yu paused to throw a smile at Izuku, he had been thinking about all of this seriously long before these two, and the words she had said to him this morning rang true sooner than she thought possible. The face he had on now made it obvious that he was thinking the same too. "To make it simple for the both of you..." She spared Mashirao and Mina a glance making it obvious that Izuku had already known the words that she was about to say. "When it comes to your hero identities, I am not saying that you should follow the same school of thought considering everyone is different, but heroes like Rumi and me our hero personas are based on characters that best suit our abilities and Quirks. Mine for example is a larger-than-life person, a person that I wanted to be as a hero. So with that said, have you thought about what kind of hero you want to be?"

Mina was the first to answer, after watching Izuku and classmates like Mashirao she had a general idea of what she was capable of. She was not like those two, although she can use her acid Quirk offensively, and being more physically inclined than the average person she was more of a support/rescue type of hero. "I don't know, I feel like with my Quirk I should be more of a support player, but..." She trailed off, looking down after placing her chopsticks on the table.

Yu noticed the apprehension in Mina's general behavior, Mina did not know what she wanted in life as a hero, it was probably too early for them to be thinking that way. She knew what Izuku wanted and what he was working towards, Yu herself did not understand what she wanted at their age, she wasn't even in any of the hero schools across Japan. Yu even entering a hero program used her Quirk in a far different way than she does now. "This is what the next three years at U.A. is about, right?" The three of them nodded. "Even if you have that time to think, that doesn't mean that you can't be more proactive about your future. You never know what will come tomorrow. So this is what I want you to do as you go through this internship with Rumi, I want you to pay attention to every hero you come across. To their interactions with civilians, villains, and other heroes alike. There is a lot you could learn from just watching them."

While this was happening Rumi was sitting at the counter across the restaurant, she had her feet resting on it while talking to Genshiro. "Hey little missy, feet off the counter." Genshiro scolded the twenty-six-year-old.

Rumi lowered her bare feet next to the sneakers she was wearing, scoffing in turn. "Come on, Pops. It's not like anyone eats here."

Genshiro crossed his arms looking at the ceiling before replying. "Ya think my bizness is a joke or somethin'? I reckon you callin' that lettin' Yu take care of them students is the right way to go?" He said as they watched Yu interact with the U.A. students.

"That's not a problem, I am more of a practical learner anyway. I will let Yu handle the theory and Nanami handle the business end while I'll will help them with the villain and rescue end of things..." She paused to get into the subject she was going to confirm with the man. "But what's with that message? Is that boy really related to Hisashi-senpai?" Rumi spoke pointing to Izuku talking with his friends.

"The boy said it hisself, and you can tell by the look on his face. He's surely a Midoriya... even in touch with Mitty. Calls her Auntie, y'all know."

"Calling that woman auntie, eh?"

"Which woman?" Nanami had exited the back area of the ramen place, car keys in hand.

Genshiro pointed at Izuku with his thumb dumbfounded at his daughter's disregard for the man that she used to follow around at a young age's son, he couldn't help but be disappointed considering she would be the first to find out. "Don't that boy make ya think of someone? Lemme give ya a little hint..." He spoke cupping his cheeks with his hands with his elbows on the counter. "Oji-chan, what are you doing today?" He batted his eyes as he looked fondly at his daughter, Rumi trying to hold her laughter.

In realization, Nanami's eyes went wide with a red tint gracing her features. "You mean…" Her voice trailed off as she remembered her behavior towards Hisashi Midoriya, him saying that he had a son around her age, and her response to that. "… and Katsuki Bakugo is…"

"..." Rumi grinned while responding.

Nanami brought her hands to her face, blushing. "No way, why didn't you tell me?" She punched her father on the shoulder, Hisashi Midoriya had the same job through her father that her cousin Akihiko has with Hana Midoriya, they were the right hand to the current leader of an allied clan. From what she remembers the Midoriya right hand and her sister Rumi are the only ones that had not returned to their own clans. The Nakamura and Mori clans were merged at the end of the age of the yakuza with Aika Nakamura becoming heir. "Oji told me he had a son my age, I thought he would have been out of high school by now." Nanami cast a longing look at the table of heroes.

"You knew, didn't ya? Why on earth didn't ya tell me, Nanami? If I had known, I woulda found that boy and his mama sooner, and I wouldn't be stuck in this awkward mess tryin' to tell Hana." Genshiro asked, crossing his arms.

Nanami frowned thinking over the conversation she had with Hisashi, her insistence, his making her promise to not tell anyone, to her promising to protect Izuku as an 'official Fujiwara' when they grew up. Her eyes that landed on Izuku then transitioned to Yu, 'I guess he won't need my protecting after all, I'm sorry Oji.' She thought, passing her father the car keys to the hatchback that she had been driving all day. "I thought you said that you wouldn't butt in on the deals I made Dad."

Without catching the keys Genshiro passes them back into Nanami's hands, getting the girl to cock her head. "That promise was just for when ya took over fer me, darlin'. Forget 'bout the full gas tank, I'll get ya a brand new car... I got a little job fer ya..."

"You don't mean..." Nanami looked between Rumi and her father, it was clear as his former heir that he was planning something. "What about Maki-nee?" She said thinking of her older half-sister.

Rumi chuckled while Genshiro sighed. "Makina done made her choice, and she got a boy to look after. Rumi ain't cut out to be no leader. And I need you, Nanami. So, yep, my sweet darlin', the ball's in your court now." His words seem to strike a cord. "I need ya to go grab two more grills from the storage, and take Izuku along with ya. I want folks to know he's with Fujiwara, ya hear? So show him 'round a bit before y'all head to the docks, alright?"

In that instant, Nanami's honey-brown eyes seemed to give a faint glow before she wrapped her arms around her father. "I'll make you proud Dad." She could finally keep her promise to Hisashi, but now how was she going to break it to Keigo?

"It ain't about makin' me proud, Nanami. It's all 'bout you livin' your life the way you want, and doin' it to the fullest."

(...)

"Hello, Hana... What do I owe this call?"

"There was only one person that gave Aki that information."

"So he told you about Izuku?"

"What do you know about my grandson?"

"Plenty..."

"What do you mean plenty?"

"When my cute student comes to one of us for a favor, of course, I wouldn't pass up the chance to help out."

"Here is me thinking that Nana Shimura is dead. Tell me everything you know... Now!"

"I can see why my father allied with you, but there's not much for me to say that Akihiko doesn't already know, besides. Gin's daughters are already looking after him at U.A., so you have nothing to worry about... Yet..."

"U.A.? Huh... Wait yet?"

"It seems that I have a debt that needs to be repaid. Someone we know very well doesn't take warnings very well. Even when I caved his skull in he's still after my Toshi..."

"That upstart is still alive? You have got to be kidding me..."
