A/N: I have an exciting announcement! Next Friday, I will be posting the first chapter of a My Hero Academia/Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir crossover titled The Four Horsemen. Stay tuned!


Once again, Deku and Todoroki got to walk back to the dorms with each other after their day's classes, only this time, Todoroki wasn't suffering a terrible case of PMS, so it was much better for both of them.

"So, what do you wanna do today?" asked Todoroki.

Deku shrugged. "Nothing special, really. I was thinking we could get together in your dorm and watch a movie together while romantically wrapping an arm around each other."

Todoroki laughed and ruffled Deku's hair. "Oh, you silly boy! Seriously, though, I'd love to watch a movie with you! Besides, I need something to help me relax after our most recent training session."

"I don't blame you. Seems like Mr. Aizawa gets less forgiving each day."

"I know, right?"

"Midoriya, Todoroki, wait up!"

Deku and Todoroki turned around to see who'd addressed them this time, and it was Jiro.

"Hey Jiro, what's up?" asked Deku.

"Listen, there's something that's really bothering me, and I just need somebody non-judgmental to talk about it with."

"What's wrong?" asked Todoroki.

"It's just…I feel so ugly. I look at you and the rest of the girls and I wonder why anyone would bother with me."

"Why would you be ugly? I don't think you're ugly."

"Maybe you don't, but…I mean…you and the other girls are just so…so…" Jiro cupped her hands and held them out in front of her chest. "I know I said I don't envy not having those, but sometimes, I feel like that would be the only way anyone would notice me."

Todoroki smiled and placed a hand on Jiro's shoulder. "I know you feel ugly because of that, but really, beauty isn't all about breast size! Look at you: you have such a cute face, not to mention I love your hair!"

Jiro blushed, and her lips trembled. "T-Todoroki…"

Deku smiled and placed a hand on Jiro's other shoulder. "Beauty's not always about physical looks, either! For one, you're a woman who plans carefully and lays things out in simple terms. Also, you're not afraid to say what's on your mind, and you're very musically talented! Those are some very attractive qualities in a woman!"

Unable to take Deku and Todoroki's kindness anymore, Jiro covered her mouth.

"Guys, I…I…I LOVE YOU BOTH!"

With a big smile on her face, Jiro hugged Deku and Todoroki at the same time, and they hugged her back. Knowing that two of her friends were being so encouraging and supportive to her about something that was a contentious issue for her, Jiro felt all warm and fuzzy inside. She'd been struggling with this for a while even before she came to UA, and it meant so much to her that anyone would see just how beautiful she really was. As she remained in this embrace, she considered herself to be so lucky to be a student here at UA. What really made her feel good about herself was the thought of being able to face her darling Kaminari with a renewed sense of confidence. This time, she didn't even mind having Todoroki's voluptuous chest pressing against her head. It just felt so welcoming and comfy that she wanted to keep being hugged forever. Eventually, she did let go.

"Midoriya, Todoroki, you two are two of my best friends! I don't know what I'd do without either of you!"

Deku smiled. "Well, we're always happy to help! Aren't we all training to become heroes, after all?"

Jiro nodded. "Good point. Wanna hang out together?"

Todoroki gave a thumbs up. "Sure! Deku and I were gonna watch a movie, and you're welcome to join us!"

"Don't mind if I do!"

Jiro wrapped her arms around Deku and Todoroki as they accompanied her to Todoroki's dorm. Deku in particular was proud of himself knowing that his words were still having an effect months later.


Criticism is gold. Negativity and nitpicking are pyrite.
