Selina kept a relatively low profile on the rest of the tests, her only outstanding achievement being coming in second during the long distance run. She was so lost in her thoughts, she didn't realize that everyone else had dropped out leaving only her and the tall black haired girl that was speculating about her quirk on roller skates. Where'd the roller skates come from? Was that a part of her quirk? Selina could've kept running but she decided to stop, putting her hands on her knees and panting as though she was actually tired.

They all gathered in front of Aizawa. "Okay, I'll quickly tell you the results. The total is simply the marks you got from each test. It's a waste of time to explain verbally, so I'll show you the results all at once."

The results popped up from the device Aizawa held and Selina winced when she saw that she got second place. 'Way to keep it low key idiot.' She scanned the rest of the list and found that Midoriya got last place, which seemed like utter bullshit to Selina. There was no way that he, with his 700+ softball throw, could've gotten last place when there were so many individuals not able to use their quirks in the tests. She glared at Aizawa mentally questioning how the stupid calculations worked before turning her gaze to the child she felt like protecting. He looked dejected, his eyes downcast, his whole body trembling.

"By the way, I was lying about the expulsion." No he wasn't. Selina knew Aizawa well enough that she could tell when he was lying. "It was a rational deception to draw out the upper limits of your quirks." He probably just saw potential in all of them. "What?!" Midoriya became as pale as a ghost.

"Of course that was a lie. It should've been obvious if you just thought it through." roller skates girl said.

"That was a little nerve-wracking, huh?" weird elbows said.

"I'll take up the challenge anytime!" Kirishima said with a confident grin. He turned towards Selina with a little worry on his face and she smiled at him 'Now's not the time.'

"With that, we're done here. There are handouts with the curriculum and such in the classroom so when you get back, look over them." Aizawa said while walking away from his class.

"Midoriya. Have the old lady fix you in the nurse's office." Aizawa said as he walked by him, handing him a paper. "Tomorrow will be packed with even more rigorous tests. Prepare yourself."

Selina spotted Midoriya trudging along the path out of school and approached him. "You did really good on the test." He jumped and turned around just as examinee 7111 approached them.

"Is your finger healed?" he asked.

"Yeah, thanks to Recovery Girl." Midoriya said.

"Oooh~ The next time you need to go to her office, can I accompany you? Aizawa sensei banned me from going to see Granny Chiyo unless I'm injured but he can't stop me from accompanying another injured person!" Selina said.

Examinee 7111 turned to her and said "It is disrespectful to call Recovery Girl by her given name! And you should not be doing what Aizawa sensei explicitly told you not to do!" his hands moved up and down in chopping motions.

"Well Examinee 7111," Midoriya laughed, "I have her permission to call her that. And sensei knows that I'll end up in her room one way or another. He can't stop me with a ban!"

"You do not know my name! And you still remember the orientation?!"

"You did leave a lasting impression. And we never formally introduced ourselves. I'm Selina Everett. Nice to meet you."

"Likewise. I am Iida Tenya."

"And I'm Midoriya Izuku."

"I already knew your name green bean." Seeing the shock on his face she continued "Iida here called you by your name on the field. I have above average hearing."
