"...So, that concludes our unit on Hero Laws. Tomorrow we'll be looking into Chapter 13, which is villain-centric, basically the history of villains, how they came to be, how past heroes handled them, etcetra." Aizawa Sensei had been in a surprisingly good mood all week,  probably because Kacchan and I haven't fought since Saturday, which was just a small amount of bickering over which age of All Might was his prime (the Golden Age, obviously). The bell rings, signalling the end of the final period on a Thursday, and Aizawa Sensei finished off his lecture.

"Great timing, I just finished. Alright, brats, go back to your dorms and do whatever you want as long as it doesn't involve me. Don't look for me, I'll be asleep. If any one of you even dares to wake me up, I will fail you on your quiz next week. Oh, yeah, and study for that. I'm looking at you, Kaminari." Well, maybe he's not all too happy, but still better than usual.

"What? I've totally been studying my butt off! I even made notes!" Kaminari held up his notebook to show a page littered with bullet points and doodles here and there. "See? Hard work!" He jabbed his finger at the page while Aizawa Sensei just rolled his eyes and bent down to grab his sleeping bag.

"Yeah, by studying, he means being violently tutored by Bakugo. Isn't that right, bud?" Ashido teased, pointing to the small bruise on his forehead, presumably from Kacchan. Ashido pokes at it and Kaminari winces at the sudden pressure on his fresh bruise.

"Yeah, thanks for the headache, KaCcHaN," Kaminari added, also adding fuel to the fire that was Kacchan's anger, which was about to boil over. I knew this based on the fact that there was steam emitting from his hands. A familiar scene.

"Oh, shut up! You should be grateful I even helped you! And shut up, Raccoon Eyes, I tutored your ass too! And quit calling me that!" Ah, there it was. Kacchan blowing up at his friends. He pushed his chair back as he stood up, igniting small sparks from his hands, which earned a flinch out of Ashido and Kaminari. Also, why can I call him Kacchan but not Kaminari?

"Pfft, you let Midoriya call you that!" Kaminari took the words straight out of my mind as he lightly poked at his recent injury, slightly squinting every time his finger made contact with the sensitive skin.

"Whatever!" That wasn't an answer, but before anyone could battle his "statement", if you can  say that was a statement, he packed up and left the room. Now that I notice, it was already half empty in the class and Aizawa Sensei was passed out on the floor already in his signature yellow sleeping bag.

I followed suit and made my way over to my dorm, thinking about when I would train next and who I could spar with.

Kacchan would be a good opponent, mostly because he can do long and short ranged attacks, and I should work on both. The only catch is that he wouldn't even consider training with me, judging his mood when he left the class. Plus, he might already have plans to train with someone else, but that could be debatable. Maybe I should just ask him. I doubt he'd let me go anywhere within 20 feet of him, though... how else could I contact him? I continued combating myself in my head when I remembered that we exchanged numbers back when we had that fight after the Provisional Hero Licensing Exam, since All Might wanted us to try to get along. We hadn't ever texted each other, though, so it might seem a bit random. Whatever, if it's training, there's a chance he might respond.

Deku: Hey, Kacchan! I was wondering if you wanted to train later today or tomorrow after school, since we could both use practice, are you busy?
