It was a Saturday, and the Ultimate students were still stuck inside. Midoriya looked over the list of requests they had given him as he went shopping.. Saihara requested some mystery novels, Iruma asked for spare parts and energy drinks, and Oma asked for a grape soda called "Panta". He said that grape was preferred, but if there wasn't any, he would be fine with raspberry.  

He new the students also asked Momo for some things. A telescope for Momota, a bug net for Gokuhara, and some fabric for Shirogane. When asked to explain, they got a bit apprehensive and told class 1-A about their talents. A few students noticed how tense they got when they talked about their past. As if they had something to hide...

Midoriya shrugged off his suspicion. They're just high school students, right? Sure, Oma almost said he had sixteen students, but then quickly said nine, as if some students were no longer in his class. And yeah, they seem to be afraid of the teachers...especially principle Nezu...but maybe they just had a bad experience with mice...this is getting harder and harder to defend. I might as well be honest, something is definitely wrong. But what? Maybe it's none of my business... 

"Midoriya."

"Hmm?"

Todoroki, who was accompanying Midoriya to the store, sighed. "You've been mumbling for a while. Are you worried about the ultimate students?"

"Well...I'm just...afraid that something might be wrong. I mean, if something was wrong, it would be none of my business, but...I'm just concerned."

Todoroki nodded. "I believe...Oma is the most adamant about keeping their past to themselves. There would be no reason for that other than something bad happening."

"You think so?"

"I am certain."

Jiro sat on the couch while some of the others were out. She hadn't told anyone about her discoveries related to the Ultimate Students. She really hated getting into other people's business, and telling everyone about her suspicions would just cause trouble. 

"Hey, Jiiiiriiiiiiiii-chan~" Oma said, a large smile on his face. "Why are you sulking around, huh? Let's go play some instruments!"

"...You're interested in music?"

"Yeah! I used to have an electric guitar, but when I was moving into the Ultimate Academy dorms, I lost it. I got so sad~"

"Woah, really?!"

"You should know by now that the ultimate supreme leader would obviously be skilled in every aspect~!"

Iruma cackled. "Except for height! I bet length, too! Ah-hahahah!"

Oma slowly turned his head to face her, an irritated grin on his face. "You know, I bet those precious tits of yours are gonna slow down your running, which will be so unfortunate when I get fed up with your humiliation-kink bullshit and decide you aren't worth the air you waste."

"...eh...D-Don't make...jokes l-like that..." Iruma mumbled, her fear overcoming her embarrassment. 

"Oh? Backing off? Good." He turned back to Jiro with a smile. "Now, as I was saying-"

"It is now 10:00! Please return to your rooms for the night!" Iida shouted. 

All the ultimate students got a bit shocked. Not because of the announcement itself, but what it reminded the students of. It hurt to remember the nighttime announcements in the killing game, but they didn't say anything. They all just headed to their respective dorms quietly.

"Woah." Todoroki muttered. "Did you see that, Midoriya? All the ultimates...tensed up."

"Yeah, what was that about?"

"Maybe me and you could discuss it more...in your dorm?" Todoroki suggested, his embarrassment only detectable by small amounts of blush dusting his cheeks.

"Sure!" Midoriya replied, unaware of the implications.

The two boys headed off, both densely ignorant of the Mina and Uraraka, who started fangirling about their ship sailing.

"Did you see?! They headed off to Midorya's dorm!" Mina whispered.

Uraraka beamed. "Todoroki's finally getting more confident around Deku! I'm so happy for them!"

"Shouldn't you go hang out with your gf?"

"Me and Tsu aren't like that!" She blushed, waving her hands around. "We're just friends!"

"Right, right." Mina giggled as they both headed to their respective dorms.
