Xian has decided, on a whim of being up early one morning, to escort Ekio to school. But there is a catch, Xian has claustrophobia so they won't be taking any sort of public transport.

Xian is walking Ekio to school. Ekio didn't get home until the early morning so she is tired enough to accidentally put coffee in the kettle instead of her cup. It didn't happen, but it could.

"My dearest sister~ It is time to go!" Xian calls, knocking on the bathroom door.

Ekio groans incoherently and opens the door, walking under her brother's arm and heading for the door.

'Oh wow, she is actually ready.'

Xian follows her out of the apartment and locks the door for her.

This is going to be an interesting trip.

Ekio practically smacks her brother goodbye as she walks onto campus, still trying to wake up. The coffee hasn't kicked in yet so she is waiting for that to lift her day.

"Didn't see you on the bus," Bakugo says, leaning back in his seat.

Ekio, squinting at him slightly, sniffs loudly and shrugs. "I got escorted by my caring brother this morning."

Bakugo raises his eyebrows at her, his signature scow staying unmoving on his face. Ekio moves along from him, not wanting to deal with whatever smart ass comment he has to contribute.

She sits down in her seat for what seems like weeks and slides down into it, closing her eyes softly. Shoto doesn't even look at her, he is trying not to seem too tired so people don't draw a line between them.

Aizawa walks into the classroom, immediately looking at Ekio, looking as if this is the first time that he has found someone to relate to.

"Good morning Sensei!"

The sound wakes Ekio up, making her jump slightly. She sits up in her seat and sniffs slightly, rubbing her eyes. She lets out a small cute yawn that catches Shoto's eye. He watches her for a moment before looking back to the front.

Aizawa is looking at him, a knowing glint in his eye.

Shoto knows better than to react in this situation, he just stays completely neutral as he looks back at his teacher. Ekio has changed quite a bit since he met her. She was introverted and guarded. But as more people have become close to her she has slowly become the opposite of both of those.

Her trust in the class has seemed to put her at ease. Sure, when out and about and talking with strangers she reverts back to her gauded, sassy self, but with the class, she acts as any other teenager.

Kio places her hands on her lap and fiddles with them. She didn't miss the look in Aizawa's eye when he looked at Todoroki and is now having a moment of internal panic.

'If Aizawa-sensei knew it wouldn't affect much, but it means that he is entitled to tell other people. He might also have a moment since he has assumed the role of my 'father figure.' Shoto, please fucking watch yourself.'

"Since we don't have long before the holidays, it means it is exam time. Those who are behind will have to spend extra time doing classes to catch up." Aizawa glances around the room, sliming widely as multiple kids start to sweat.

'Exam's aren't a problem for me. I have a brain, and it retains information. Good enough.' [and yet here i am, writing fanfiction]

It is also known that knucklehead Katuski Bakugo is somehow, unbeknownst how, a mastermind. He just fucking picks up information and understands it.
