It was early the next morning, the students poured into the classroom with some heading straight to their seats while others stood around and talked until the bell. Gon was one of the former students and went to his desk immediately after walking in.
Upon arriving in his temporary dorm room the day before, he had discovered a pile of basic language and history textbooks, as well as a spare uniform. He wore it to class but the fit wasn't quite right. The shirt and jacket sagged around the shoulders and he had a hard time keeping the pants from slipping too low on his waist. The lower half of his pant legs puffed out a bit because they were layered over the gaudy, green boots he wore.
Aizawa had mentioned that they would get him fitted for a proper uniform and some new shoes, however, for the meantime he would have to make do with what he had been given. When Gon first slipped them on to test how well they fit, he was worried that they would slip off right away. It was almost like he was a hermit crab that found a shell too big for its body. Although he wouldn't complain about it out loud. He'd experienced things that were much more uncomfortable than loose clothes, and he was grateful enough that they gave him a uniform at all.
Once he sat down, a few students instantly surrounded his desk. Gon could put a name to most of the faces by now and noted that the teens who came to greet him were; Mina, Tsuyu, Kirishima, and Denki. He beamed at the newcomers, glad to have people to talk to on his first day of school.
"Hey Gon! How was your first night in the Dorms? It wasn't too bad was it?" Kirishima spoke first.
"Kirishima!" He replied brightly then slightly shook his head "It wasn't bad at all! The blankets they gave me were super comfy."
"That's good to hear, ribbit." Tsuyu chimed in. Gon tilted his head when he heard the girl say 'ribbit'.
Now that he thought about it, when the students overwhelmed him yesterday he believed he heard her say something at some point. He was pretty sure he heard her go 'ribbit' then too. The more he thought about it, the more he realized just how much her mannerisms and appearance somewhat reminded him of a frog.
"Hey Tsuyu, why do you say ribbit?" Gon asked bluntly, amber eyes alight with pure curiosity. Tsuyu was a bit taken aback from the question that was so out of blue.
"It's because of my quirk." She responded. "Oh, and you can call me Tsu."
"Tsu?..I like that, it sounds nice!" He paused for a second, processing the first part of what she said. "What do you mean it's because of your quirk?"
Tsuyu had a faint blush on her cheeks from the unexpected compliment. "My quirk is called frog. It means I can do most things a frog can do." She answered. Gon's entire face lit up at the information he just received.
"Whoa, that's so cool! Having a quirk sounds awesome!" He said, eyes glittering and voice full of awe. So far quirks sounded very similar to Nen abilities, but there were a few small things that made them different. From what he understood, quirks were genetic and almost everyone had them. Quirks also were a part of the person rather than feeding off of a person's aura and they weren't chosen like Nen abilities were.
"That's right! Hey little dude, didn't you say something yesterday about not knowing what your quirk is?" Denki spoke up, leaning on the desk with a look of interest. Gon nodded and was about to reply when he was quickly cut off.
"Oh yeah, we were talking before you guys came in." Mina added, "You also said you didn't really know what brought you to UA."
The group of four stared at him with wide curious eyes. Gon looked between them, a little lost, trying to figure out what to say. The concept of quirks was still more of a mystery to him and he didn't know how to explain that he woke up not knowing where he was or how he got here. The longer it continued to dwell in his mind, the more he considered he might as well be in a completely different world than where he was from. Granted, no one would believe that considering the teachers already thought he had amnesia.
