Izuku wanted this day to be normal, but life had other plans.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7wfB7URkIm
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.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXTPCBMB6n
Why?
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc75RHwx6i8
The still awkward tension between him and Momo. It’s so bad that Izuku had to be told multiple times to pay attention.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYVcFRrYdI
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.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlF32YsSS8Q
No words were spoken, which seemed like the nail in the coffin of this-
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBmOzubtWw
Momo: “Midoriya.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeVcFZay5g
Izuku: “Y-Y-Yes!?”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUAtowzUwR
Momo: “You… can relax. I’ve thought about what you told me yesterday.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy96ocWlm8p
Yep, here it comes. His first rejection. Well, at least he still has-
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtL8tUc54lb
Momo: “I don’t want to give you up.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8PFMWCppH6
Izuku: “… What?”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwruWsplEN
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.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxkwOhHsbj
Before he can fully grasp what she’s saying, Momo leans down and kisses Izuku’s cheek.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ30bZ6sfPGW
Momo: “I hope Tae understands.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknz8G6RRjK
Face sprinkled red, Momo makes her escape while Izuku’s brain reboots.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4oqaepDZO
Izuku: ‘How did I end up having two girls fighting for me?’
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs4NdWKbgbz
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.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXwSrdyRDu
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTh8hwDEzp5
Recovery Girl: "You blockhead."
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2cjSi8fFLl
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.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR4CEWKVsE7
Recovery Girl: "Why didn't you tell me about this yesterday?"
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUoX3pbHy4c
All Might: "I’m sorry, it slipped my mind. Besides, you couldn’t have checked it until today anyway."
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡekBdVt86jm
Recovery Girl: "Hmph. Luckily, I sense nothing wrong, Yaoyorozu-chan. I think she’s ready for the real tests.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrQROCzLTG
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.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXFeAHp6VOM
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.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVpRfFty4mU
Momo: "Besides Midoriya’s family, is this everyone who knows of One For All?"
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHJMFBwnNi
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."
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuI8ZbnHiCb
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."
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Cb5Rb0koN
Nezu: "Rest assured, we are doing everything in our power to make sure that never becomes relevant."
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRiOed3hVI
But Momo had heard enough. Her mind whirred as she pieced it together.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjlFVn73Nl
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… "
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjizPiLpvc
Momo looked at Izuku, and he shook his head.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2LD5m9FhvV
Momo: "I'll be honest. I don't appreciate being given One For All without all of the facts."
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIvmRYmINk9
Izuku: "Me either… "
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqrru3cFP4
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."
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfO1MAvo1wW
He had such an uncharacteristic look on his face that Momo and Izuku merely nodded.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoV1dRLP4TW
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."
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkcyc1EWqRN
Recovery Girl: "I am here for any complications. This blockhead has told you that there will be some blowback, yes?"
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtiOMqcP3Ry
Momo nodded resolutely, trying to put the heavy subject behind her.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7sHJqyUagH
Momo: "Yes, though he didn't give any specifics."
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdtbO0hJaT
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."
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ78UUwgLHk
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.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvC6k9P1hr
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."
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWv6KiWraKA
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.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf33FtVd8N2
They had no idea what her 100% would look like.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOCkGbGTz5
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.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡStrZCIyOSz
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.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cYnQRBlet
Immediately, red lightning started crackling across her body. Preparation done, Momo let out a strong right cross down the street.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPeQmpSlCO
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.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1N2Ak6CfSM
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.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJH9l6xM9Q
Izuku: "Momo!"
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARMLAcBgOC
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.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbl8lRjnTIL
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.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡShcS1qUaSe
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.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOkKidH8MsQ
Momo’s screams petered off, replaced by a long, drawn-out moan of relief.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSq9QsXZZk
All Might: "Yaoyoro…zu?"
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6MEvV32bt
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.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0VuhVt3tqB
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!
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgovv9awiht
They watched in awe as the flames healed Momo’s arm. When it was over, she was cradling her arm in dumbfounded awe.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCnzV8qsvm
Momo: "It… it's healed?"
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpG2Cg7adFL
All Might: "YOU CAN HEAL?!"
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH32NBllogM
Izuku: "I CAN HEAL?!"
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqd25tj8HM2
Yeah, and Recovery Girl looked like she was about to weep tears of joy over it.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbi62jl8TnY
Recovery Girl: "He can heal!"
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡalt5eRXg6P
It was a that moment that Izuku felt a chill go down his spine.31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjC40IOZQ9q
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrrr4XgNJe
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf5WslvaHsG
Toshinori had his head in his hands as Izuku and Momo finished recounting what had happened and what he had seen.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFNyzV230I
All Might: "That is FAR above and beyond the blowback I expected. My word, your arm was all but ready to come off!"
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfW01Nrej4
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.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjn5IEFWkko
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."
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDRMFcJVLI
She reached out to Izuku, who was nearby. He didn’t hesitate to take her hand.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11ir6g5cHK
Momo: "You saved me again…"
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo0efk1kbpL
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.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCCyuKpNca
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."
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYythgDiwE
Momo swallowed but shook her head.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Utf4reyOF
Momo: "If I did, my words to you would be meaningless. I can't let myself fall after my first hurdle."
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLRUTsAgkQI
She trembled for a moment before getting up.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmNErSfa8k
Izuku: “Are you sure?”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoFUdCAUf5p
Momo: “Yes, I… want to try again. I’m not afraid, as long as you’re here.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpGo42aqq49
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.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXd82xftmiO
This time, her skin just started to glow with an inner light. There was no lightning this time, just some glimmering veins shining.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cSvVLKkvw
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.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7q6IyIlWKU
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.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcdFYtbyltv
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.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHpfjDnW7n
Toshinori and the others either gaped or smiled proudly.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOL17R3irRX
All Might: "Oh my… oh MY… GOODNESS!"
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktyfxjrgRF
Izuku: "That was fantastic, Momo!"
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11QmlUyeMJ
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.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJohikMXvbP
She suppressed a giggle. Maybe it wouldn’t be as hard as she thought to help Izuku make the choice.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2VsTu4fO0q
Not wanting to push too hard, she pulled back.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrluvE846Z2
Momo: "Thank you."
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4sf8X0ixs5
She smiled brilliantly at him and returned it, despite the red on his cheeks.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNZaHYnB3v
Izuku: “T-The lightning was really cool too. I-I wonder if you can do a-anything with it."
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0fDTWMlSn
Momo: "Any ideas?"
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7DHVT7lF2
Izuku: “Just a crazy one. And it would for sure confirm if my theory on Creation is right."
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hCRcf9qM5
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.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzeCdkBwit
Momo: "Wait, you don't think-"
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpgdD5uL9N
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.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFxnrkShT9
Izuku: "YES!"
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TIHN7BmoY
Momo: "Oh my god! I didn't even feel a tiny drain on my lipids. What was your theory?!"
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxneV57zt4N
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?"
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYsrGnq5Bl
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."
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDPU6eYYspS
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!”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrseU6UUXoB
Izuku started pacing, excited to be proved right.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBHtzDFzzS
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!”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgRCRwrykkX
Momo: “No way…”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaPNoYMHGN
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!'”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZSZwUxnoR
Momo: “Midoriya… ”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU46J2GdJGa
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!
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBcQryu405
So of course, she hugged him tightly and whispered her gratitude.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hgxMem5O0
Momo: “Thank you, I won’t let this gift go to waste.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD3ruI9l9R2
Izuku: “I know it won’t; you’ll do great.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtFsb2s66k
Recovery Girl: “Ahem.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3EOIhCZAY
Remembering that there are other people around, the duo separate.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6YZXmmbyGi
All Might: “Excellently done, young Yaoyorozu. You already have gotten such a grasp of One For All, and it’s only been a day!”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsExaeXalM8
Momo: “Thank you. But I only can handle four percent for now. That is why I have a favor to ask, Midoriya.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Vv71XqH3I
Izuku: “Favor?”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97jPrF7iqd
Momo: “Yes, it’s related to how you can manipulate things on the atomic level.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc3YwnLX9nF
All Might: “He can do that?”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyREUy3y8Pt
Nezu: “Oh yes. I did wonder how you turned Todoroki’s ice into water like that. Fascinating.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVyA4O1ZKr
All Might: “Midoriya, your quirk is getting kind of scary.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgXujLXP7TR
A flash of intense self-hatred and anxiety later, he responded.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHzMDFheEXh
Izuku: “Don’t worry, there won’t be any more surprises.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LOGCzP3GP
Recovery Girl: “What about the healing?”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpD0zzh0ZhE
Izuku: “… Besides that. Anyway, what about it, Yaoyorozu?”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QM6vNyji8
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.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡque57VFsOn
Izuku: “I… don’t know. Just one wrong move and… ”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyz0N8iJyMJ
Momo: “You trusted me with One for All; trusting you with this is the least I can do.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHujZJybbB
Izuku: “… I’ll think about it.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqo9TrNMC7W
Recovery Girl: “That’s all well and good, but can we return to how he can heal?”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdT3vzkOmZO
All Might: “You won’t let that go, will you?”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4LAKo87P9H
Recovery Girl: “Never.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtnvlw9GWb
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.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYlDO9vK41P
Nezu: “Fascinating, it’s almost like your quirk is alive.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFRe5F9l6VW
Izuku: “It’s not.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25Jtg1neD1
The principal, someone not known to show any fear, felt his hair stand on end.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuoFmdJvlIG
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.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLZ6A87SiS
Izuku: “I suppose. I’ll try.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJT2pnpd21
Momo: “So… can you come over to my house again? Maybe tomorrow night before internships.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ0kpvqtE4j
All Might & Recovery Girl: ‘How bold!!’
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzXtVbOqxcQ
Izuku: “I-I-I…
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWeu1mz1R5
By all that is good, he wants to say yes. But that wouldn’t be right, not to Kiri.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgZTpYhJyl3
Izuku: “I-I can’t.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ2tpTitpej
Momo: “Oh… ”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlV70PmAuD
Her face falls, and the heart cracks a little. There is only one reason why he would refuse.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOubAE7nt9v
Izuku: “It’s just… it would be-”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecsEcu3pg3
Momo: “I understand. We can do it some other time.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGy7b6kOuGS
She gives him a forced smile and accepts that it won’t be that easy after all.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqWYTLk743
Recovery Girl: “Young love, as complicated as I remember.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6du83UZj0
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.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf34RPV1OkO
Momo: “I will. Thank you all for everything.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo74E7Nis45
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.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9TtrqVUifd
Wanting to fill the silence, the boy asked a question.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirtpd954x6
Izuku: “S-So, who are you interning with?”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTQczbMW9k4
Momo smiled before giving her answer.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8JFWD4xRRf
Momo: “I was going to intern with Uwabami, but after gaining One For All, I think I’ll go for Edgeshot.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8w3oOEo5v
Izuku nearly tripped over his foot when hearing that.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6PTUjq4L7
Izuku: ‘The same as Kiri… ’
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjWgABInjsy
Izuku: “Why?”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7l1CCf84s
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.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwI5ixqDfq
Izuku: “T-That’s a good idea. I’m sure he’ll-”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtiAwqKlo1
The hairs on Izuku’s head stand on end; a familiar presence makes itself known at the school gates.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPCmEBPzeQ
Izuku: “Yaoyorozu, can you go on without me? I need to talk with a friend.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4yQkWWJXG
She looks between Izuku and the other student.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BBf9CDclp
Momo: “Are you sure? Is something wrong?”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyNTIvDwB1
Izuku: “It’s alright. Just something I forgot to do.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzQSiMEKvW
She can tell that smile was forced. But something was warning her to not interfere in this.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkyDZP3lbW
Momo: “Text me tonight so I know you’re alright.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Z2rKqSlUT
Izuku: “O-Of course.”
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsH0s8DCU5V
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.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgjEfPNFfV
With her worries lessened, Momo made her way out of the school grounds. That left Izuku and his first apostle.
31Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqrmCaQhExH
Shinso: “We need to talk.”
