Izuku wanted this day to be normal, but life had other plans.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzWxTIRmIg
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFj7MwxXkMr
Why?
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtgU2XTzlf
The still awkward tension between him and Momo. It’s so bad that Izuku had to be told multiple times to pay attention.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMw8QfjmQEO
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcV2hEeQWpv
No words were spoken, which seemed like the nail in the coffin of this-
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZc8tgSY2X
Momo: “Midoriya.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzzEBXnbGG
Izuku: “Y-Y-Yes!?”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡInWheTMkyD
Momo: “You… can relax. I’ve thought about what you told me yesterday.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6hRBZposdu
Yep, here it comes. His first rejection. Well, at least he still has-
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyRDswxfpt
Momo: “I don’t want to give you up.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKh3HHfCof
Izuku: “… What?”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGC4DogyI6x
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.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Oet8NbSff
Before he can fully grasp what she’s saying, Momo leans down and kisses Izuku’s cheek.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsvrI3p2BT
Momo: “I hope Tae understands.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe9SXB7V83R
Face sprinkled red, Momo makes her escape while Izuku’s brain reboots.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1WHUru9ZG5
Izuku: ‘How did I end up having two girls fighting for me?’
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu70MZ1MFpc
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaVHg44ADaK
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBwl8euQIXl
Recovery Girl: "You blockhead."
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9JNutINSk
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qOJlzQtjQ
Recovery Girl: "Why didn't you tell me about this yesterday?"
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CwkVxLmPe
All Might: "I’m sorry, it slipped my mind. Besides, you couldn’t have checked it until today anyway."
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiPg5yhlfg
Recovery Girl: "Hmph. Luckily, I sense nothing wrong, Yaoyorozu-chan. I think she’s ready for the real tests.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8phmLWff7L
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv291tsHxdH
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdspuhCl4VA
Momo: "Besides Midoriya’s family, is this everyone who knows of One For All?"
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdypKeRlqF
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."
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTSZ12TAGn
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."
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJlnYtdzsg
Nezu: "Rest assured, we are doing everything in our power to make sure that never becomes relevant."
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEncBqODrOr
But Momo had heard enough. Her mind whirred as she pieced it together.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cPOaj9u3v
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… "
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBSGd00eeg
Momo looked at Izuku, and he shook his head.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5vf3zIwcQ
Momo: "I'll be honest. I don't appreciate being given One For All without all of the facts."
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKrchYT7xJb
Izuku: "Me either… "
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCz7zm2MBOa
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."
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFiaW2kuqJ
He had such an uncharacteristic look on his face that Momo and Izuku merely nodded.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaFIWuMTquz
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."
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIrVgHoAyEj
Recovery Girl: "I am here for any complications. This blockhead has told you that there will be some blowback, yes?"
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnuA0d6LKKG
Momo nodded resolutely, trying to put the heavy subject behind her.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡID6mEfhGdh
Momo: "Yes, though he didn't give any specifics."
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLGwf8mTqoE
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."
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oUfpUbHWs
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDn98cS9JS0
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."
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWI0rzTXcAU
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFz479eXOO
They had no idea what her 100% would look like.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmJIX2C5oV
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkfMuXD3PF
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEJcyhmLPgS
Immediately, red lightning started crackling across her body. Preparation done, Momo let out a strong right cross down the street.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKFs3upi5c
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBrGpKSwqzB
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr3BBC1vHir
Izuku: "Momo!"
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZJIeD6oHP
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuXzFkfOBN
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLt57KfOpjF
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZsTFjgcjGk
Momo’s screams petered off, replaced by a long, drawn-out moan of relief.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg27uoke26F
All Might: "Yaoyoro…zu?"
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHDnF7BPsE
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2odwBHWN5
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!
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO8UVon4xow
They watched in awe as the flames healed Momo’s arm. When it was over, she was cradling her arm in dumbfounded awe.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqslVdkDTOB
Momo: "It… it's healed?"
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIXvqISvY1
All Might: "YOU CAN HEAL?!"
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpVwlkMZEA
Izuku: "I CAN HEAL?!"
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0TpJ9a1S6n
Yeah, and Recovery Girl looked like she was about to weep tears of joy over it.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0bZvJQhxt
Recovery Girl: "He can heal!"
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNrCGqYusDv
It was a that moment that Izuku felt a chill go down his spine.6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlWzRxcTM1
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBP4OdCDb9F
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6lHuj5qKg
Toshinori had his head in his hands as Izuku and Momo finished recounting what had happened and what he had seen.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBaZd68sjfd
All Might: "That is FAR above and beyond the blowback I expected. My word, your arm was all but ready to come off!"
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUT6xFyat9
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAFTzm2rmf
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."
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9g3KT5k9mp
She reached out to Izuku, who was nearby. He didn’t hesitate to take her hand.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsXH2sIOnzT
Momo: "You saved me again…"
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE6iUTDK4kX
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdltbKleTkE
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."
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9kbxW9pBU
Momo swallowed but shook her head.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUo0TMUEakB
Momo: "If I did, my words to you would be meaningless. I can't let myself fall after my first hurdle."
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cKhDNXCSY
She trembled for a moment before getting up.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN3xEuWIXb8
Izuku: “Are you sure?”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBCPrVzwLrn
Momo: “Yes, I… want to try again. I’m not afraid, as long as you’re here.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRFjcCcFut
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhiEzyigeTa
This time, her skin just started to glow with an inner light. There was no lightning this time, just some glimmering veins shining.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvDNiy9h3vX
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLi66NV8OD5
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5YRnVvcdxV
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsOWZKDd5H
Toshinori and the others either gaped or smiled proudly.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZAKBOVHRsU
All Might: "Oh my… oh MY… GOODNESS!"
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlkE8nbZlD
Izuku: "That was fantastic, Momo!"
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbiJu870SGL
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZaPBsKyqG
She suppressed a giggle. Maybe it wouldn’t be as hard as she thought to help Izuku make the choice.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2HquoYU2GL
Not wanting to push too hard, she pulled back.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4eFN10BhUf
Momo: "Thank you."
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMLKfFSeJU
She smiled brilliantly at him and returned it, despite the red on his cheeks.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxGTiaDa2aT
Izuku: “T-The lightning was really cool too. I-I wonder if you can do a-anything with it."
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJzwLTL7iU
Momo: "Any ideas?"
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPz7AtxfiQg
Izuku: “Just a crazy one. And it would for sure confirm if my theory on Creation is right."
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxmtiCbcpZ
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUBXqQ0hxeR
Momo: "Wait, you don't think-"
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecY1lelhZX
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs8YCrBYJLR
Izuku: "YES!"
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAuActErhA
Momo: "Oh my god! I didn't even feel a tiny drain on my lipids. What was your theory?!"
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqvje3dj4E
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?"
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uo3Hzrtm7
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."
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshAqMpDHsO
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!”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP68j7oQP7M
Izuku started pacing, excited to be proved right.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM6iDcglkrM
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!”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwAWqfwNwf
Momo: “No way…”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTfN5OrkhcJ
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!'”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfU1j7znBoI
Momo: “Midoriya… ”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlrO4apfO4
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!
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjARcFRPvze
So of course, she hugged him tightly and whispered her gratitude.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QrKhdtCUu
Momo: “Thank you, I won’t let this gift go to waste.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ZOwvA0rpb
Izuku: “I know it won’t; you’ll do great.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt28OATj5qv
Recovery Girl: “Ahem.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHw2g4NSTTh
Remembering that there are other people around, the duo separate.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPGtkNtwaj
All Might: “Excellently done, young Yaoyorozu. You already have gotten such a grasp of One For All, and it’s only been a day!”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHeeqjWnPUf
Momo: “Thank you. But I only can handle four percent for now. That is why I have a favor to ask, Midoriya.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5rvm9o916
Izuku: “Favor?”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSGz83cO2Ic
Momo: “Yes, it’s related to how you can manipulate things on the atomic level.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMHB1B4FpV
All Might: “He can do that?”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG9fpzF8Bgv
Nezu: “Oh yes. I did wonder how you turned Todoroki’s ice into water like that. Fascinating.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVaDPvn56H
All Might: “Midoriya, your quirk is getting kind of scary.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhcM932fFux
A flash of intense self-hatred and anxiety later, he responded.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhIzxT7qZGa
Izuku: “Don’t worry, there won’t be any more surprises.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyVt58rclZ
Recovery Girl: “What about the healing?”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLnE4YhjOq
Izuku: “… Besides that. Anyway, what about it, Yaoyorozu?”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu73327T9oW
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.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKiOnHuucv
Izuku: “I… don’t know. Just one wrong move and… ”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUOtMnmOA9
Momo: “You trusted me with One for All; trusting you with this is the least I can do.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbRYGOeYNR
Izuku: “… I’ll think about it.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaIit4Z9Z1q
Recovery Girl: “That’s all well and good, but can we return to how he can heal?”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQH8pNHzJAP
All Might: “You won’t let that go, will you?”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyO8WJZ4oD
Recovery Girl: “Never.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8ATv4Gnrf
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.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRNNXriPwhC
Nezu: “Fascinating, it’s almost like your quirk is alive.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡODMYifhjr0
Izuku: “It’s not.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ospUWpojP
The principal, someone not known to show any fear, felt his hair stand on end.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdKdGRISTMP
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.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMDkpgKPDV
Izuku: “I suppose. I’ll try.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7Q90gu4n4v
Momo: “So… can you come over to my house again? Maybe tomorrow night before internships.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9WexWAauO
All Might & Recovery Girl: ‘How bold!!’
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkrf4uQfIo
Izuku: “I-I-I…
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnK0Aot7tBn
By all that is good, he wants to say yes. But that wouldn’t be right, not to Kiri.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbJiFU9WoU
Izuku: “I-I can’t.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTamoftHpKR
Momo: “Oh… ”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6M7YsbXoxd
Her face falls, and the heart cracks a little. There is only one reason why he would refuse.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjtS5DBMvrF
Izuku: “It’s just… it would be-”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkNRbIdKRrO
Momo: “I understand. We can do it some other time.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡExXT4Kdkye
She gives him a forced smile and accepts that it won’t be that easy after all.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNk1zHNSO6a
Recovery Girl: “Young love, as complicated as I remember.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9EVm30tI8f
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.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GictYcvUk
Momo: “I will. Thank you all for everything.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSE0u8u9F6
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5uEwFUMt1k
Wanting to fill the silence, the boy asked a question.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgsn0KOVzVP
Izuku: “S-So, who are you interning with?”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP9wocWLN0m
Momo smiled before giving her answer.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZb0QAgJmFu
Momo: “I was going to intern with Uwabami, but after gaining One For All, I think I’ll go for Edgeshot.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSpRT0apXnz
Izuku nearly tripped over his foot when hearing that.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthvFNasGo5
Izuku: ‘The same as Kiri… ’
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX0DINpdKDB
Izuku: “Why?”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWTgoOEYNVX
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.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Hp1xRN1xb
Izuku: “T-That’s a good idea. I’m sure he’ll-”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMv5CD5VUB
The hairs on Izuku’s head stand on end; a familiar presence makes itself known at the school gates.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzcEFHLKVy8
Izuku: “Yaoyorozu, can you go on without me? I need to talk with a friend.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIedSdwRGp
She looks between Izuku and the other student.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXVnPyuIzl
Momo: “Are you sure? Is something wrong?”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeKsHEpLIc
Izuku: “It’s alright. Just something I forgot to do.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡErMbPrETGW
She can tell that smile was forced. But something was warning her to not interfere in this.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uQ3ge1pPM
Momo: “Text me tonight so I know you’re alright.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwDeYm0USbB
Izuku: “O-Of course.”
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9SZ71BoUUs
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.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmrXHcaQCr1
With her worries lessened, Momo made her way out of the school grounds. That left Izuku and his first apostle.
6Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnu3UnlgzDP
Shinso: “We need to talk.”
