"One more! One more! One more!" the crowd chanted around Izuku and another intern balancing on a stool, on top of a stack of papers on top of their desks, each of them with a dart in their hand and precariously aiming them at a dartboard another person was holding up. Midoriya was the first to throw, landing his dart very close to the middle and a cheer went up from the crowd

"Beat that!" Midoriya teased the adult. The man teetered and threw, landing himself a bullseye. The interns yelled and cheered, several bets were exchanged and Izuku groaned, hopping down to shake hands with the older intern

"I win" the man smirked "You're going to buy snacks right?"

"Yeah, yeah" Midoriya huffed good-naturedly "I'm on snack run duty today" a cheer went up as he agreed "Alright!! Make a list make a list!!" he yelled over them "I'm not getting nothin if it ain't on a list-"

"WHAT IS GOING ON IN HERE?!" Mirko barked as she stormed in, Iishi tagging behind with a clipboard and looking unamused at the mess they had caused so early in the morning. The group silenced immediately and looked around innocently as their bosses glared at them, Mirko tapping her foot impatiently for a response

"Snack run?" Izuku tried with a cute smile, holding up a sheet of paper as everyone tensed around him

"Dude what the hell?"

"Oh we're screwed now"

"She's gonna kill us."

"Snack run?" Mirko repeated with a raised eyebrow, looking over at the many darts stuck in the wall and the interns guilty faces

"Yes." Izuku nodded innocently " I was chosen for the snack run this afternoon." She squinted at them for a little longer before finally giving an approving nod

"Plantain chips." She told him before marching out towards her office

"Clean up this mess" Iishi ordered, adjusting her glasses and fixing the group with a glare "I don't want to see a single hole in that wall"

"Yes ma'am" they chorused, relaxing only as she slipped out of view

"Mirko-san is so chill!" Midoriya grinned, writing down her snack

"I'm pretty sure she's only like that with you Harakaru" one of them snorted

"What's your secret?" another asked, "It took me like a week for her to even look at me and you've gotten on her good side in less than 4 days!"

"Let's just say, I have a lot of experience dealing with people with her personality" he told them with a knowing chuckle

"Is it really that hard to do your job-"

"Bakugo!" Best Jeanist reprimanded, smacking the top of his head lightly "Manners!" the teen blinked up at the hero, pretending he hadn't heard. "'I said, manners'" the man signed with a huff, knowing his costume made it hard for his intern to understand him and the mic he wore to help with that issue had mysteriously gone "missing" by the second day "'The police are here to help us. Getting on their bad side won't do you any good"'

"Well maybe if they weren't idiots-"

"Bakugo!!" the teen threw his hands to the sky

"Fine!!" he yelled, shoving his gloved hands into the borrowed jeans he wore and stomping off to the curb "I'll get out of the way!"

"That's not what I- ugh..." the hero rubbed his forehead to help alleviate the incoming headache "Teenagers." Katsuki ruffled his combed down hair to make it pop back up in its classic blonde spikes and pulled out his phone, angrily checking his messages he missed from yesterday as he sat down on the curb. He flicked one hearing aid off to ignore the sound of the street but still hear enough if there was an emergency
