The next day, Izuku awoke with the feeling of something warm and alive on top of him. His sleepy eyes fluttered open to find Kiri lying on his chest, her smaller body rising and falling gently alongside each breath he took. They resembled an otter parent and child pair lazing atop each other, her little fists clutching his pajama shirt tight while she dozed peacefully. A lock of his dark hair drifted near her mouth, and she began to chew on it, even drooling a little.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNv3f0v14R
However, there’s a problem.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaTAqeukHjZ
Kiri: “Nmu… ”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JlDucLHRG
This is his room, and she shouldn’t be here. Izuku fought down his blush and sucked in his panic.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJS0HOQYUK
Izuku: ‘Did she sleepwalk?’
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX68HTY5ABi
Glancing at his bedside clock, he noticed it was almost time to get up and get ready for school. The boy tried to gently slide her off without waking her up. Ironically, his actions had the opposite effect when she held on tighter the moment she felt her 'bed' shifting.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3J4WWpnntE
With no choice, Izuku prodded at her cheek tenderly, careful not to startle her.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz9BE1XQd8Q
Izuku: "Kiri?"
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIepZNbezm3
Kiri: "Nn?"
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLrg2i39QX3
The little girl let out a small yawn.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5970JBFZE
Kiri: "Nii-chan… ”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxTbiCCa8GH
Izuku: "Y-Yeah, it's me. W-What are you doing here?"
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxFYALBkAo
Kiri: “Wanted… to be close to you.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDXLXMkM9pg
Izuku: “But… we can’t sleep in the same bed. You should’ve stayed in your room. Did you sleepwalk?”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzqGMS85t2
Kiri: “No, I couldn’t sleep… until I was with you.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNVcHWWDMa
She looked at him with such innocent eyes, dispelling any worries of other thoughts. But still, this can’t go on. Izuku shifted their positions so they were sitting cross-legged across from each other.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IllmCc4nq
Izuku: “Kiri, we have to clear up the misunderstanding at school.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdebMFGoPos
Kiri: “What misunderstanding?”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQKEK72pi3Q
Izuku: “That you’re my… girlfriend.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkQ6j7XVsF
Kiri: “But I’m a girl, and you’re my friend.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNgGTZV00XX
Izuku: “Yes, but a girlfriend is something different. It’s… only for couples.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWOet5DHbt
Kiri: “Couples?”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvTSrjXB38
Izuku: “Y-Yes, those who love each other.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScrxf4lQwQ
Kiri: “But… I do love you.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lWx9wfb1B
Izuku couldn’t help but blush a bit from that. Sure, he sees Kiri as a little sister, but she’s still a cute girl. Hearing that from a cute girl would of course get a reaction.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf04NDZvOYP
A reaction that made Kiri feel… strange again. More good this time.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScoffiiyNF
Izuku: “I-I-I know you do, b-but that’s familial love, not romantic.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjvGYd9CY8
Kiri: “What’s… the difference?”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcuTK28Vz9
Izuku: “Um, one is for your family, and the other is for someone you… intend to marry.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46XUV0SL7d
Kiri: “Mmmmmm, can’t we get married?”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCY4SkSSWid
Izuku: “W-What!? No!”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4TGvKDyI6w
Kiri: “Why?”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4VR4THlOPZ
Izuku: “Because you’re like my sister! Siblings can’t get married!”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QYjqeiH7o
Kiri: “Why not?”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡncLakFIgb0
Izuku: “Because… because… ”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CC5KAPpdv
The more he thought on it, the more the reasons don’t work in this case. Kiri is a mental construct, so the genetic argument doesn’t work.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3jjTlNXHq
But still, he shouldn’t see her that way. If Kiri is okay, then maybe-
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCMN6CkCZIi
Izuku shakes his head violently, banishing those bad thoughts.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE3BRWwOXNB
Izuku: “Look, Kiri, we just can’t. Please, just tell everyone we’re just friends. Not girlfriend and boyfriend. Can you do that for me?”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8HWv13SyKL
Kiri: “… Okay.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl9qXMnx3xY
He can tell she still doesn’t really get it, but this will have to do for now.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfNO3PkiqY
Izuku: “Good, now we have to get ready for school. We can’t be late.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCwDflc4bq
Kiri: “Nh.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKu94qh5R9
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsDWxtTXJh
After running to school, because they were almost late and for exercise, the duo got breakfast and then attended their first class.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkJ4CU4zCs
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA72iOpXoA6
Present Mic: “All right, class. Tell me where the mistake is in the English sentence. Who knows the answer? Everybody, hands up and raise them high!”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajofJB2YxH
‘So normal!’
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkG489NczB
The whole class shared the same sentiment. Some students were dozing off, like Mina, or even sleeping, like Kiri. She didn’t see much reason to learn this stuff after all.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hDMTgzKiW
The only one who seemed to be enjoying himself was Izuku. After that though, the class was allowed to gather at the grand mess hall.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5S6Oc93jEq
The group was pretty big; nearly the whole class was together. Much to Izuku’s delight, he was welcomed with open arms.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPZ5C0xsQI
Izuku: ‘I never expected to get this many friends, all at once.’
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGhRMApGjiE
They group shared their names, the basics of their quirks, and complaints about schoolwork. You know, normal school life.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcVOSZn5UA
That did, however, leave little time to clear up the Kiri misunderstanding.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qNdI3bUuk
Regardless, that normalcy was coming to an end, for a special teacher was coming in for their next class.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7doHUqKWcF
All Might: "I AM HERE…"
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6GXT2qmLck
Everyone's heads perked, and wide grins split their faces at the welcomed surprise.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7MAX201mE
All Might: "COMING THROUGH THE DOOR LIKE A NORMAL PERSON!"
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLUzwiAxRUC
"We have All Might as a teacher?!"
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDgUV2dZ8T
The class erupted in excitement as All Might walked in, resplendent in his Silver Age costume.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIJlaKyGDTE
Mina: "Whoa, his style is so different! I swear I'm hearing a theme song right now!"
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwOuNI7wYK
Jiro: "You're not the only one."
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKdsa0AFqU
All Might proceeded to chew the scenery right up as he heroically made his way to the podium and put his fists on his hips.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT7EX16Tc7b
All Might: "I will be teaching Fundamental Heroics! In this subject, we will be putting all of you through your paces so that you can learn the basics of being a Hero. We'll be here quite often. This class and its subsequent advanced versions will have the most units per semester."
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBqHSfLcD0
He seemed to flex, and somehow managed to make a card appear in his hand.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFnjTpb9pN
All Might: "So let's get right into it! Your first class shall be… Combat Training!"
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFYTqcWbtN
The card had the word 'Battle' written on it.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVTZIsWiFEX
Bakugo: "Combat?!"
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBUbx9ZbH2
He was grinning broadly, beyond excited. With this, he could prove once and for all who’s on top.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLO7vPj7LIF
All Might: "And for that you need these!"
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQF9UYPOfCH
All Might clicked a button and several panels popped out of the wall to the far side of the room. Each of them had five containers labeled from 1 to 15.130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPLU5dmh2C
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvbOaRWW2JD
All Might: "In accordance with the Quirk Registry as well as your own written requests... here are your-”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIr5fktjH8G
"COSTUMES!"
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7YDUITQ9K
Nearly the whole class shouted in glee. They couldn't wait to see how all of them had turned out.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qSJoNrEQI
All Might: "That's right! After you change, meet me at Ground Beta!"
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvtM8sY85f
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CsEULiYqd
All Might stood alone now, fists again on his hips as he waited for his students to start coming through the tunnel into Ground Beta. His grin widened as he started picking up on faint footsteps before the first of them broke into the light.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrR93YLI1k
All Might: "They say the costume makes the hero, young ladies and gentlemen."
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ5RjW5MQii
He eyed each of them and liked what he saw with most of the costumes.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb61VQRJggs
All Might: "Be proud. From this moment on, you are HEROES!”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvPuQoy0z9
Behind the rest of the class, Izuku and Kiri were the last ones walking out of the tunnel. He had gotten a little lost in a memory when he and Kiri first put on their costume.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ddvoFknKZ
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtmb0d5LOmZ
It was the night before his first day at UA, and the family had just finished dinner. After cleaning up, Inko pulled him and Kiri aside with a brilliant smile on her face.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzY6dVz1JG0
Inko: “Me and Fubuki have a surprise for you! Right, Fubuki?”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxECfDeNyR
Fubuki was pretty silent throughout dinner, but hearing her name finally brought her back to reality.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDcBfyIM3K
Fubuki: “O-Oh, yes! I almost forgot, stay here, Izu!”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjDWutHZqT
Fubuki nearly ran out the door.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡab6JhxTgJQ
Izuku: “What is it?”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6mcV4KDSQ4
Tatsumaki: “Something we made for when you were accepted into UA.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8F8pWwzYAl
Inko: “Fubuki was the one who came up with the idea and even paid for it. Tatsu and I helped design it. But we did take a peek into your hero journals for inspirations.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQdLRKXS4Us
Before Izuku could wonder what they made, Fubuki came back with two large metal suitcases. She floated them in with her quirk and laid them on the couch.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ34dOrYzOtS
Fubuki: “I really hope you too like it. I spared no expense.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyPEleAFBW
Izuku and Kiri got on their knees and opened the suitcases. Their eyes widen at the gift.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIfRF1sO4k
Tatsumaki: “You’re heroes now; you have to look the part.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTXMLmu1qtV
Izuku beamed a brilliant grin, which brought joy to those that saw it.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMfmpJ6K3Qm
Izuku: “Thank you, for everything!”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp4nmbOF9ov
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLlMAAaUEa
Uraraka: "Woah! You two look amazing!"
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgSikHw2dv0
The gleeful cry from Ochaco drew all of their attention, and several more exclamations rang out.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9eRMXn2pQB
Mina: "Wow, matching outfits!? So cute!"
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwW3in4PFI0
Mina's voice rang out as she started excitedly running around them, checking out every angle.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWiQcJnJgcJ
Momo: "Quite cool. I like it a lot."
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMODpNLw52
Momo smiled at him specifically, getting another luminescent blush from the shy boy.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVsQ9rg7hty
Izuku: “T-Thank you.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdoZp3zA4Ma
Denki: "Jeez, looking at him makes my costume look like a crappy cosplay. I'm a bit intimidated."
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwSI8qMkoZ
Kaminari complained in good humor. He was wearing clothes that wouldn't have looked out of place at a rock concert. They looked like regular clothes.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQn5BqVXj9T
Bakugo: “Tch.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpK3fMwJ5W
Izuku's full costume looked to be in a similar style to the one All Might was wearing. It was a full bodysuit and had a green cape, but that was where the similarities ended.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgWiGiVzka
Rather than spandex, it was a combat bodysuit similar to those really old space-themed video games from the previous century like Crysis or Mass Effect.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgXH9xwr8e
It was primarily black, but there were some green accents woven in through the suit. The gloves and boots were bright green, as was the cape and the shoulders, running down to his arms. A bright green bird of prey was emblazoned on his chest.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGfIIR4u6l
Finally, an emerald sash rested on his hips for his Psi blade.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbl38xPC2X9
As for Kiri, her outfit was much the same, except her primary color was white with light green accents. She had no cape but instead had a gladiator helmet with silver wings. A helmet worthy of a Valkyrie.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKL8sWZ0Nzr
Together, they contrast but somehow still complement each other well.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡadsEU3ZOZu
Mina: “Aw, I’m so jealous. I wish I had a boyfriend I could have matching costumes with.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuKIZnw7RD
Kiri: “Nh.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPXq90CB873
Izuku: “But-”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEuGi4pE5Nd
All Might: "Alright, my young heroes, it is time to get started."
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaExrTvmzy1
All Might interrupted the socializing since he couldn't stay in his hero form for too long.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXIY3FfbalF
Ida: "Sensei, this is the same site we used for our entrance exams. Will we be doing cityscape maneuvers again?"
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbki7VpMVb
All Might: "Close! What we’ll be doing will involve indoor combat scenarios and outdoor survival."
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTBUIRms2t
All Might: “You must be able to adapt to both scenarios as they come up. To that end, we have come up with a new combat exercise that suits the number of students.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdx95kCKwo
Tsuyu: "So no basic training?"
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL13yFCTyV5
All Might: "Practical experience will teach you that! The distinction here is that you won't be fighting disposable robots but each other!"
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJsyvEBQ2f
Some were surprised by the news while others were thrilled. Izuku could feel the burning glare aimed at him. He dared to send one back at his longtime bully and former friend.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovbFHNsPgD
They stared at each other as the fire of their past itches to ignite into a frenzy. But All Might cuts in first.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmIVJ6UxIzw
All Might: “My Young Heroes, prepare for the 5v5v5 Combat and Survival Trial! Pick a card out of here to determine your teams.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzJhMTonvH
One by one, everyone picked a card from the black box All Might had. In the end, everyone had either a green, red, or white card. Before the questions could bombard him, All Might explained.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqr3rpKRPY
All Might: “Reds will be the Villains, Greens the Heroes and Whites the Civilians.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjlqvj6Fq9J
All Might: “Villains need to capture all Civilians while protecting their bomb at base camp.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhR2iPBqvk
All Might: “Heroes need to save all Civilians and bring them back to base camp while capturing the enemy bomb. You can ignore the Villains and focus on those objectives, but that will lose you points. The Villains will still be at large in this case.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7f1uUfmAz
Momo: “That means in order to get high marks-”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzsGaS8EMM
Uraraka: “We have to save the Civilians, bring them back to base safe, capture the bombs and beat the Villains!?”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvrcFIb1Fd
All Might: “Yes, hero work is rarely easy, and the odds are often stacked against you. This is a lesson you must learn early.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeefHa0YvaJ
That’s putting it lightly. The Villain team is… stacked.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPirfMVphC
Villains: Bakugo, Ida, Shoto, Mina, and… Kiri.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHK8s9IImoy
Izuku looked at his little sister, and she at him.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbpXt0HO1x
Hero: Izuku, Uraraka, Sero, Kirishima, and Momo.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5lElTFbysh
Kiri: “Onii… ”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6USfhQtdED
Izuku: “It’s alright, Kiri. It’s just training.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi7xDIeJF88
Kiri: “But I don’t… want to fight you.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFODOlzYwH
Izuku: “You have to.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU8QhMU8CRX
Kiri: “But-”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjpBBlqcMg6
Izuku: “Don’t go easy on Kiri. Think of it like how Fubuki fought me. This will help us become even better heroes.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbL61VEmlE0
Kiri: “Are you… sure?”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbi1OSxAbL
Izuku: “Yes! Even if we’re on opposite sides now, we’ll still be together, improving as heroes.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gWToFiuxg
Kiri: “… Nh.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz4vtgqWqa5
Kiri nods, and her worry dissipates. But Izuku can still feel she’ll try to avoid him. It’s probably for the best, because he knows who he’ll face during this.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtO02uLKtrY
If Bakugo’s maddening grin was anything to go by.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZUMlLKxwpU
Jiro: “Okay, that’s all good and all. But what should the Civilians be doing?”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWp9vYzf4dA
Civilians: Jiro, Shoji, Denki, Tokoyami, and Tsuyu
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPx3zR4ygnV
All Might: “Survival is a skill every hero must know. Your task is to evade the Villains as long as possible until the Heroes arrive.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6eV2UvjLi
Denki looks to Ida and Kiri before sighing.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE7xYix6h3B
Denki: “We’re doomed.”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwC0TJTVcX
All Might: “Go to your assigned areas in the city my young heroes! When you see the flare, the trial will begin!”
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6jcWWFBS4
Izuku takes a deep breath before taking a step towards his first major battle.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqboa8fVpcu
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHaSZbMlvnA
I want to say thank you for reading, following, and reviewing this story. It motivated me to use my holiday time to bring you another batch of chapters. Sad about my other story, it seems to be falling into obscurity.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikkr1XiThQ
I’ll focus on this since it’s what the people want.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVnMph32v5
Now, I want to say that I don’t plan to have Kiri x Izuku happen. I’m tempted, but I don’t think Izuku would go for it. Still, I think I played with the idea too much. Even I’m starting to get annoyed by the misunderstanding.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMvM7A115s8
I will break the it after this battle so the real ship can begin. As for Kiri’s feelings on the matter, we’ll see.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94fkx16qjC
On another note, after doing more detailed outlines for later arcs, I’m starting to regret including the Phoenix. The more I write and plan, the more I want to focus on the ground level of the hero society.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡarV3lak1KZ
Much of it will expand and explore the themes that the original story covered. But that means the Phoenix has been bent to fit that, which is difficult. Primordial Vortex, you had the right idea not involving the actual Cosmic Entity.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HCkweZdAC
But that’s life; I’ll figure it out and give you a story that can stand proudly next to the original. That’s if life doesn’t decide to bend me over a counter again.
130Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwZuydvBa1J
Until next time.
