Izuku wanted this day to be normal, but life had other plans.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWlDO20ux2
First, she may deny it, but he can tell that Kiri is frustrated with the current situation. She still clings to him during the night but keeps her distance during school.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ66d4TBbFVm
Why?
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6JmkjJnG74
The still awkward tension between him and Momo. It’s so bad that Izuku had to be told multiple times to pay attention.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9L4MvzSTzo
The boy is tempted to just use telepathy, but that would only make things worse. So he suffered through class, said his goodbyes to an avoidant Kiri, and went to All Might with Momo.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZBgUDedq1
No words were spoken, which seemed like the nail in the coffin of this-
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQJ5BzbOsG
Momo: “Midoriya.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAb5Gue3Ou
Izuku: “Y-Y-Yes!?”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5z3uUSO3Kh
Momo: “You… can relax. I’ve thought about what you told me yesterday.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTwpYqTkPru
Yep, here it comes. His first rejection. Well, at least he still has-
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxxSmYo1UM
Momo: “I don’t want to give you up.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFViWkvfLIZ
Izuku: “… What?”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjQr5yt4qi
Momo: “I find the whole situation to be… strange to say the least. But if you’re still undecided, then I will try to help you come to my preferred choice.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJ9O6R8K1t
Before he can fully grasp what she’s saying, Momo leans down and kisses Izuku’s cheek.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEw9OfHShNK
Momo: “I hope Tae understands.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2vxR7swGcw
Face sprinkled red, Momo makes her escape while Izuku’s brain reboots.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtsmBe7c89
Izuku: ‘How did I end up having two girls fighting for me?’
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7gineVjKlw
The better question is what he should do about it. A question for another time, perhaps; right now they need to get Momo used to One For All.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeJHGlZic3f
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1DfLJ84v42
Recovery Girl: "You blockhead."
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDnxmLAkni
Recovery Girl groaned when she was told what had happened yesterday. All Might, Izuku, and Momo were in her officer; apparently she will be the one checking Momo’s current physical state.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjm9gUoK6Lz
Recovery Girl: "Why didn't you tell me about this yesterday?"
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkyFwJOtItW
All Might: "I’m sorry, it slipped my mind. Besides, you couldn’t have checked it until today anyway."
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzSOZgGFohF
Recovery Girl: "Hmph. Luckily, I sense nothing wrong, Yaoyorozu-chan. I think she’s ready for the real tests.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgogcZj5fvB
The group headed towards Ground Beta, the site of the Battle Trails. Izuku couldn’t help but feel… nostalgic. It hasn’t been that long since the trails, but everything was so much more… simple back then.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCb8rhVv0kA
Shaking away the reverie, he refocused on the current situation. He and Momo were standing in the middle of the street, with All Might, Principal Nezu, and Recovery Girl nearby.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNDnIZGPd9
Momo: "Besides Midoriya’s family, is this everyone who knows of One For All?"
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFjD9JyzDtC
All Might: "There are a few others that you need to know about. One of my personal friends on the police force knows. His name is Naomasa Tsukauchi. The other two were my only two sidekicks: David Shield and Sir Nighteye."
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzeT8Yi5yWv
Momo: "I see. Judging from how you said that, I'm assuming there's at least one other I don't need to know about."
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsz1oIempu3
Nezu: "Rest assured, we are doing everything in our power to make sure that never becomes relevant."
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqISrwgYVcq
But Momo had heard enough. Her mind whirred as she pieced it together.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqPiS1i4iv3
Momo: "The villain who injured you."
All Might: "I forgot your brilliance was one of the reasons I chose you. Yes. My arch nemesis, you could say. I’m… sure he died in the battle, but you can never be too sure… "
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGlBuNoxUj
Momo looked at Izuku, and he shook his head.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEISOTbJct
Momo: "I'll be honest. I don't appreciate being given One For All without all of the facts."
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDd93XSTO6
Izuku: "Me either… "
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡys69UFMwNE
All Might: "I'm sorry. But if he IS still alive, I will ensure neither of you has to face him. THAT’S MY fight."
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFKzq2Y4Ab
He had such an uncharacteristic look on his face that Momo and Izuku merely nodded.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzWRv3fqPxq
Nezu: "Now, we luckily have access to this giant playground for you to test your new quirk. We will be helping you train with One For All as well as Creation here."
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQoKg7h2BDg
Recovery Girl: "I am here for any complications. This blockhead has told you that there will be some blowback, yes?"
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtfhsuWo02a
Momo nodded resolutely, trying to put the heavy subject behind her.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wqbPF0BeJ
Momo: "Yes, though he didn't give any specifics."
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Vxl8ZlvXe
All Might: "As you know, my blows at full force are capable of causing cyclones and even changing the weather. I can also move faster than most vehicles ever created. Despite your impressive physical stats, a brick wall you are not."
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfT55mBNygu
He buffed up to emphasize the point, which got Izuku and Momo to laugh and drew smiles from the other two educators. Afterward, he deflated.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGos6kUy9qf
All Might: "As such, I still expect to see at least some internal bruising and micro-fractures, and perhaps some torn muscle fibers here and there. We will work to get you to a level that you're capable of using it safely, and then you can build up to 100% from there."
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOSb3nM7Ri
Momo nodded resolutely and started walking deeper into the city. The other four stayed back, mostly so that they wouldn't be anywhere near her when she used One For All for the first time.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIRJdtYFJJ1
They had no idea what her 100% would look like.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8CS4O1Ddv
Momo stood in the middle of an intersection and took a deep breath as the wind blew her hair around. She exhaled and took a fairly amateurish kickboxing stance. She was a much better armed fighter than unarmed, though she wasn't entirely untaught in that field. That would be something she would likely need to put more focus on now.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1JDObtaWJO
She reached down, ignoring Creation for the first time in her life and reaching for One For All instead. She allowed it to engulf her right arm and immediately realized that was silly and spread it through her entire body.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxEY1gEjsQm
Immediately, red lightning started crackling across her body. Preparation done, Momo let out a strong right cross down the street.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0rx2z5JlD
The result was a gigantic shockwave that shattered windows and bent light posts as it surged forward. But that was the least of it; even cars were picked up and thrown down the street.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCfvzMglGW
Back where she had left the other four, there were smiles all around as they saw the result of her first attempt. And then they heard her screams of agony. Their smiles dropped off, and before any of the other three could even think, Izuku was gone in an emerald flash.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGgyv2mu5j
Izuku: "Momo!"
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdvTFwFRmYB
Appearing next to her kneeling form, he gasped. Momo's entire arm, from shoulder to fingers, was shattered. The skin was a dull red with multiple open scars down her arm, leaking blood. The limb was spasming, and he realized her bones had to be shattered as well. It looked like a bomb had gone off under her skin.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6UAMc3Rlp
And she was howling in agony, tears pouring down her face. Izuku jumped at her in a panic, the desire to help and heal her exploding in his chest.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡitC3bxfQKN
Like when another loved one was badly hurt, his quirk responded to his strong desire. Green flames burst from the hand that was holding her and latched onto her wounds.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFz0l1nGCnp
Momo’s screams petered off, replaced by a long, drawn-out moan of relief.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVOVUTglWe
All Might: "Yaoyoro…zu?"
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7TyxWEIAY3
All Might and Recovery Girl blinked, their shout of worry trailing off as they sped into the area. They both saw how damaged her arm was whenever the flickers showed it off. But it was visibly getting better.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRgQdeQZcJ
Finally noticing what was happening, Izuku focused on his flames. He dares not move or try to guide it, in fear of ruining this miracle. It was slow. MUCH slower than using it on himself, and just as stamina-draining on him… but it was working!
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEBRxOAQlL
They watched in awe as the flames healed Momo’s arm. When it was over, she was cradling her arm in dumbfounded awe.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNOgZuWfpc
Momo: "It… it's healed?"
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOO8AqCErz
All Might: "YOU CAN HEAL?!"
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqooleBVGK
Izuku: "I CAN HEAL?!"
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxpSR5M3U6
Yeah, and Recovery Girl looked like she was about to weep tears of joy over it.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh62qNjsHNz
Recovery Girl: "He can heal!"
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Kv8IxYIAA
It was a that moment that Izuku felt a chill go down his spine.28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1bXBAxzf6
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpWfEcCIYD
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTDXpPOQG2w
Toshinori had his head in his hands as Izuku and Momo finished recounting what had happened and what he had seen.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxApc2TsC5l
All Might: "That is FAR above and beyond the blowback I expected. My word, your arm was all but ready to come off!"
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehaCaAZRrL
Recovery Girl had finished checking on Momo, and the younger girl had created a blanket for herself. If only to keep Izuku from worrying, she had a calming cup of tea in her hand, which was doing wonders for her nerves.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9euL1LU0NP
Momo: "I… I don't think I've ever been so scared. It was just… so exhilarating… and then it wasn't. I was feeling the worst pain I've ever felt in my life. I couldn't create anything to help me… I couldn't even think due to how much it hurt."
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLKguU0eh8
She reached out to Izuku, who was nearby. He didn’t hesitate to take her hand.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYSrCfGRyH
Momo: "You saved me again…"
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5v9aUA26d
There was no mistaking the adoration in her voice. Izuku went atomic red as she weaved her fingers together with his.
Toshinori almost smiled, but her words weighed heavy on him.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZc6REpoqqL
All Might: "I'm sorry, Yaoyorozu-san… I truly never intended to have you hurt like that. No one would look down on you if you wished to rid yourself of it after such an ordeal. Maybe… Maybe One For All has just grown… too strong. Perhaps it should die with me."
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhe0ySJS1ZJ
Momo swallowed but shook her head.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbNQnW0b5OA
Momo: "If I did, my words to you would be meaningless. I can't let myself fall after my first hurdle."
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93gbt8jJ4h
She trembled for a moment before getting up.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWVXTYZnUml
Izuku: “Are you sure?”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWf2tpQEyr
Momo: “Yes, I… want to try again. I’m not afraid, as long as you’re here.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoF446qizC4
With that, Momo let go of Izuku and walked a few paces away. She reached out to One For All again, but this time demanded far less power. Justa single percent, dialing it WAY back.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCsVkCppIf
This time, her skin just started to glow with an inner light. There was no lightning this time, just some glimmering veins shining.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvi0WM3nWB
She breathed out, took a few steps, and began to run. She moved a little bit faster than she was accustomed to, so she stopped for a moment and increased it by another percent.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp3lnuwVnlT
The shine emanating from her increased, and again, it was totally manageable. So, she doubled it to four percent. Here was where she started feeling some strain, and it was where she capped things off.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSww7J7GBUM
The crimson lightning was back, crackling merrily around her. She leapt forward and felt the world blur around her. She covered a hundred meters in a flash, coming to a stop and stumbling, almost faceplanting before regaining her balance. An exhilarated, somewhat shaky giggle escaped her.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhUEHQ8lMr
Toshinori and the others either gaped or smiled proudly.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyFOD47LKU
All Might: "Oh my… oh MY… GOODNESS!"
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoG5rpGRF4g
Izuku: "That was fantastic, Momo!"
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIPZKLu8J9Z
Izuku sped toward her and wrapped her up in a hug. She hugged him back happily, pressing into him tightly. And she knew exactly what she was doing as he realized what he just did, stiffening.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpIlVxGTY31
She suppressed a giggle. Maybe it wouldn’t be as hard as she thought to help Izuku make the choice.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTo7N4CQfu4
Not wanting to push too hard, she pulled back.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBjpucXnP0i
Momo: "Thank you."
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCGY7tWnSp
She smiled brilliantly at him and returned it, despite the red on his cheeks.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRUYKC0X0t
Izuku: “T-The lightning was really cool too. I-I wonder if you can do a-anything with it."
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfm2wHZ93Nh
Momo: "Any ideas?"
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqvnEJ5tO7A
Izuku: “Just a crazy one. And it would for sure confirm if my theory on Creation is right."
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo39hy16b8F
She blinked, wondering what he meant. But he didn't elaborate, merely continuing to smile at her. She let out a little pout before thinking it through. It only took a few seconds, and her eyes widened until she was gaping at him with a dropped jaw.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh4Xv5FbKML
Momo: "Wait, you don't think-"
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPv6XjdeTs
His smile turned into a smirk. She bit her knuckle before holding her arm out. She activated One For All, and the lightning engulfed her before she also used Creation. The lightning started focusing on her hand and elongated into a long rod before the glow disappeared, revealing both her utterly flummoxed face and a perfect Bō staff held firmly in her hand.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5nsRgwXx19
Izuku: "YES!"
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmHCQYEXL9
Momo: "Oh my god! I didn't even feel a tiny drain on my lipids. What was your theory?!"
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbmeMQOUFcL
Izuku: "You remember how the classic example of mischaracterizing quirks is hydrokinesis? The one we read about. How some people have quirks that allow them to draw moisture from the air rather than producing it from their bodies?"
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKFkol99vn
Momo: "Of course! It wasn’t surprising. We don't have machines to tell us what our quirks are. We can only go by our experiences with them."
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpjXsJFyTZ
Izuku: "Right! Since you lost weight, it was natural to assume it worked via direct conversion of lipids to whatever you needed. But that's just the thing; you weren't turning lipids into matter at all! You never were!”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3iAh4aGtPu
Izuku started pacing, excited to be proved right.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRuIVSkFg2l
Izuku: “I think, and I feel like you just proved, that the lipids were just the fuel in some sort of high-energy reaction that gave off extreme amounts of power! Like how fusing two hydrogen gets you one helium atom and a lot of excess energy! You then use that energy to reconstitute matter! Like a mini big bang every time you use your quirk!”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8b4NF85K3H
Momo: “No way…”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPpJ5E8w5ki
Izuku: “That was why you could make something like a cannon when you don't weigh anywhere near that much! And we just gave you a gigantic source of energy. If only you absorbed sunlight! We could rename your quirk to 'Star Forge!'”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2QLScSj9i0
Momo: “Midoriya… ”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjdXOf0s0eJ
This was… more than just One For All. Izuku pretty much gave her the keys to darn near unlimited growth of her quirk. The sky is the limit!
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLFC0fWFIg
So of course, she hugged him tightly and whispered her gratitude.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOD5LUeyBOL
Momo: “Thank you, I won’t let this gift go to waste.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxY3XTulOk2
Izuku: “I know it won’t; you’ll do great.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkP5ptQUT4S
Recovery Girl: “Ahem.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpBh1V8mJc7
Remembering that there are other people around, the duo separate.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJUABXupRn
All Might: “Excellently done, young Yaoyorozu. You already have gotten such a grasp of One For All, and it’s only been a day!”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNqhabI4iAM
Momo: “Thank you. But I only can handle four percent for now. That is why I have a favor to ask, Midoriya.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0vdWj5QYBc
Izuku: “Favor?”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd0r32shuix
Momo: “Yes, it’s related to how you can manipulate things on the atomic level.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6Jq6hQwmO
All Might: “He can do that?”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgCKp6zAQaR
Nezu: “Oh yes. I did wonder how you turned Todoroki’s ice into water like that. Fascinating.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxQ2aLZx6e9
All Might: “Midoriya, your quirk is getting kind of scary.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6p3bmVgbSE
A flash of intense self-hatred and anxiety later, he responded.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK4R05ccSyk
Izuku: “Don’t worry, there won’t be any more surprises.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTak2aCpPsQ
Recovery Girl: “What about the healing?”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pX50wqp6z
Izuku: “… Besides that. Anyway, what about it, Yaoyorozu?”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmaLxX0ml7g
Momo: “Well, after our training match, you told me you used it to optimize your body. Now that we know you can heal others, maybe you can do that for me.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFig5uUNUs
Izuku: “I… don’t know. Just one wrong move and… ”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshAFKeNO6H
Momo: “You trusted me with One for All; trusting you with this is the least I can do.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbzraNKMr1
Izuku: “… I’ll think about it.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GMRWLQ0xu
Recovery Girl: “That’s all well and good, but can we return to how he can heal?”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw8Sf5yOZ5V
All Might: “You won’t let that go, will you?”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡozVYQIg3Yz
Recovery Girl: “Never.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5X97NrM3aY
Izuku: “I don’t know how I did it; I just… really wanted to help Yaoyorozu. I guess that part of my quirk just… responded.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcABPSwUESo
Nezu: “Fascinating, it’s almost like your quirk is alive.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKBm1pM9Fic
Izuku: “It’s not.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIHlvH3rxA
The principal, someone not known to show any fear, felt his hair stand on end.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFGS9E8haHp
Momo: “I’m sure it’s something you train. If you can help me without issue, you can heal using atomic manipulation instead if the flames don’t work.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qcHk3gsry
Izuku: “I suppose. I’ll try.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15KndY9mcf
Momo: “So… can you come over to my house again? Maybe tomorrow night before internships.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrq9HpTirkz
All Might & Recovery Girl: ‘How bold!!’
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFQfZfh7d3t
Izuku: “I-I-I…
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW5IwpDw0a7
By all that is good, he wants to say yes. But that wouldn’t be right, not to Kiri.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ88ByXJJeMk
Izuku: “I-I can’t.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTyqWehpqy
Momo: “Oh… ”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMW2y1IcHh7
Her face falls, and the heart cracks a little. There is only one reason why he would refuse.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4SoAjPf5O
Izuku: “It’s just… it would be-”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjKH0nxCvk
Momo: “I understand. We can do it some other time.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cn8huP5Pv
She gives him a forced smile and accepts that it won’t be that easy after all.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3uJBPBagnC
Recovery Girl: “Young love, as complicated as I remember.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxXeG2VlOl
All Might: “Speaking of home, it’s time for you two to get going. We can’t keep you here too long. But be sure to continue to practice, Yaoyorozu; if you ever need pointers, you can come to us.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljlZG12oor
Momo: “I will. Thank you all for everything.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGi6Bj30Iwu
The group disperses and heads to where they need to go. Since they’re going in the same general direction, Momo and Izuku were left alone together.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNclRmEP3f2
Wanting to fill the silence, the boy asked a question.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡldT3EkuZb3
Izuku: “S-So, who are you interning with?”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeB0UIhjf9
Momo smiled before giving her answer.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwtrBSaimi
Momo: “I was going to intern with Uwabami, but after gaining One For All, I think I’ll go for Edgeshot.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCnIGOpQTly
Izuku nearly tripped over his foot when hearing that.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEHAbplfVl
Izuku: ‘The same as Kiri… ’
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfMX1tsH84p
Izuku: “Why?”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwylzLLQlV7
Momo: “I think he can help me become a better fighter. I can’t always rely on my creations. To be honest, I’m surprised he was interested in me. So I don’t want to waste this opportunity.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDK14HAOYvK
Izuku: “T-That’s a good idea. I’m sure he’ll-”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKzA0w8h8D
The hairs on Izuku’s head stand on end; a familiar presence makes itself known at the school gates.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS2MUV1sVed
Izuku: “Yaoyorozu, can you go on without me? I need to talk with a friend.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCnlzO7R6A
She looks between Izuku and the other student.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyq3adzbzu
Momo: “Are you sure? Is something wrong?”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIN4Auzfkl
Izuku: “It’s alright. Just something I forgot to do.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikhB98a1QJ
She can tell that smile was forced. But something was warning her to not interfere in this.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZi4IvomAff
Momo: “Text me tonight so I know you’re alright.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk5rstD4IrT
Izuku: “O-Of course.”
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdGkjaGpP3u
The fact he has a girl’s number will never cease to amaze him. He almost fainted when they exchanged contacts during their training weeks.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlk7qhOpN6d
With her worries lessened, Momo made her way out of the school grounds. That left Izuku and his first apostle.
28Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFmREVPiqm
Shinso: “We need to talk.”
