Chapter 42 - Choosing an Act

When Aizawa sensei announced they were having a school festival, there were some worried comments from students. Wasn't it too dangerous to hold the festival right now? With the League and All For One... There were a lot of dangerous people out there who had set their sights on them and they weren't sure whether it was a good idea to give them the opportunity to attack again.

"The festival will be closed off to the public. It'll show the world that UA is functioning just fine but takes the safety of their students into account. Besides, the Sportsfestival was the moment for the hero course to shine, the school wanted to give other courses the same opportunity" Aizawa explained. Izuku's thoughts wandered off to Kacchan when he said that.

The support course would be working hard this year too and Izuku was excited to see what they came up with. It was always spectacular, seeing as they always tried to gain the attention of companies that would want to buy or sell their support items.
"You'll have to find something for your class to do this year and tell me by tomorrow. If you don't agree on an activity, I'll be giving you all extra lectures for the whole day for everyone to watch, understand?"

And so the class started naming ideas and writing them down, trying to find something everyone agreed on. It wasn't easy to do and everyone had an opinion on something. Izuku had extra lessons after class so he wouldn't know if the class decided on something after school while he was stuck in class.

Besides, Aizawa sensei had also told him he wanted to have another quirk counseling session soon so he might not make it back to the dorms until late in the evening. Not that he was complaining! All of this was to help him and he was grateful that Aizawa was willing to put in the hours, even though the man complained about his class more often than not.

Katsuki wasn't aware of this though, wanting to pay class 1-A a visit as an excuse to see his boyfriend. They didn't really interact all that much during school, seeing as the Bakusquad claimed him during lunch and they didn't run into each other in the hallway with their different schedules. Besides, Katsuki felt awkward and tense at school, feeling everyone's eyes on him as he walked by, knowing they were whispering about him...

If students saw him interacting with Izuku right now, he was sure the gossip would only get worse. So visiting after hours was his best option. At least his former classmates won't judge them, right? Their pity looks would be better than the silent stares and whispers anyway... And he still had to take King for a walk today so he could use that as an excuse to drop by.

The small dog was walking a little bit in front of him, his paws pattering against the ground. Katsuki thought it was calming just to look at the little guy run around and explore, sniffing around and running off to somewhere else after only a few seconds. Dogs truly have a simple life, don't they? Katsuki sighed, seeing the 1-A height alliance come into view.

He knew they were always chaotic and loud, but what he walked into when he opened the front door was something new all together. He picked King up before opening the door so the small dog wouldn't run off, but now he was glad that he had because otherwise the dog might've gotten hurt. People were shouting and pillows were being thrown across the room. Katsuki noticed some people hiding behind couches and the coffee table was flipped to the side to use as a shield.

He flinched when a pillow hit the wall next to him, unable to suppress the reflex. He didn't see Izuku anywhere, or any of the responsible people in 1-A. Iida, Yaoyorozu... Where the hell were they?
"Oh, hey Kacchan!" Kaminari grinned as he saw the ash blonde standing at the door. Katsuki scowled, giving him a glare.

"I told you not to call me that, Pikachu"
"Oh, you brought Bakudog!" Ashido squealed, instantly petting King. Katsuki allowed her to take him from him, not commenting on the fact she just called King Bakudog. He needed to get these people back in line and stop whatever pillow war was going on right now.
