Midoriya placed his elbow onto the table and leaned forwards.

"(L/n). What is your quirk exactly?"

...

Pausing with uncertainty, you looked and made eye contact with Midoriya. Frowning and contemplating telling him.

"Midoriya, trust me. My quirk isn't anything special, nor is it anywhere close to being cool or beneficial to society. It's not that pretty either." You said frowning sadly.

"Oh c'mon (L/n)! I'm sure it's cool, all quirks are pretty cool no matter what they are." Uraraka said as she took a sip of her strawberry frappuccino and smiled at you with encouraging eyes.

Midoriya sat back in his seat normally again. "Yeah! i'm sure it's cool. I happen to love hearing about quirks so this conversation is my favorite topic."

You sighed and fidgeted with your hands. Iida placed his hand on your shoulder, making you look at him. "You don't have to tell us if you're not comfortable. Your feelings on the topic are valid."

Smiling you shook your head. "No, it's fine. Uh well, I never really gave it a name. But in a brief explanation, I can make people see almost another reality. I can basically turn people's dreams into reality or alter it myself. It's so hard to explain- but to put it briefly it's almost like i'm taking your dreams or mine and making them virtual reality. The room changes to match the idea or dream i'm thinking of without it actually altering reality itself."

They all stared at you, confused yet impressed. None of them saying anything to you. You grew worried, frantically trying to play it off. "A-ah forget it, it was a bad idea bringing it up in the first place. It probably sounds stupid-"

Iida interrupted you, almost entranced with how cool your quirk sounded to him.
"-Beautiful..."

You paused your embarrassed rant, quickly looking to him. "W-what did you just say-?"

He paused, catching himself only after he had said what he said. "Oh- uh I had meant your quirk! You said it wasn't anything pretty..but to me it sounds almost enchanting.."

You stared at him with your mouth agape slightly, trying to comprehend what he described your quirk as. Only making you smile at him sadly.

He felt he did something wrong and began trying to apologize, only for you to cut him off. "Never in my life...has anyone ever referred to my quirk as beautiful.." You looked him in the eyes, making him stutter out his words.

"Oh- Uh- Well I- I don't see how anyone wouldn't think it was beautiful...that just sounds so calming." He mumbled out the last part, sending heat rising to your cheeks.

You two continued to stare at each other as you both studied the other's features and eyes. Only to be interrupted by the sound of Uraraka and Midoriya mimicking you both. By pretending their hands were you guys, and making them make out.

Uraraka giggled as she made her hand talk. "Oh (L/n) you're so beautiful and your quirk is so amazing~! *kissing sounds*"

Midoriya made a high pitched voice as he mimicked you horribly. "Oh Iida, you're so considerate~"

You were in utter disbelief. It was weird to say the least, but entertaining at the same time. Iida on the other hand, grew embarrassed and consistently tried to get them to stop by grabbing their hands and whispering to them very loudly.

"This is highly inappropriate, and I suggest you stop now while we're in public!" He grew more embarrassed as he tried to pry the two apart.

You laughed along with the two as they were amused with his reaction. Eventually giving in and stopping for his sake. "I-I apologize, (L/n). They're definitely childish at times- but I promise they're ultimately good people."

You laughed and smiled at him "Iida don't worry, I thought it was funny." He sighed in relief and looked at his watch, realizing they all had to get back to their houses before any more of his friends teased him about you.

"Well, I hate to end this when it got fun but we really have to go. It was wonderful talking to you (L/n), and thank you again for allowing me to borrow your textbook."

You nodded and responded. "It was nice talking to you too, and it was nice getting to meet you guys. It was entertaining."

The two laughed as Uraraka whispered to Iida, trying to give him minor advice. Iida's face flushed as he contemplated the idea.

Eventually getting the courage to ask what Uraraka recommended to him. "I uh- (L/n). You wouldn't mind if I asked for your number would you? T-that way we have a way to meetup again for your textbook and all!"

He nervously gripped onto the textbook as Midoriya and Uraraka smirked mischievously at you. You laughed softly and passed your phone to him. Expressing you equally agreed to the number exchange. Eventually having the numbers saved into each other's phones.

Soon after the other two requested your number as well, to get to meet up again as they thought you were fun to be around.

Finishing with all the number exchanges, you waved to them as they exited the shop. Sighing you took a sip of your drink again. "Is this moving too fast? I don't really know nor do I care. I'm enjoying this, they really are fun to be around. Maybe bringing your friends wasn't so bad Iida."

Looking out of the window, you smiled. "Getting the truth about my quirk out there with no judgement was such a nice change of pace. I could get used to this nice atmosphere of people."
