Calling From the Setting Sun, Took My Hand and Flew Away

Atsui sat down and started playing some game on her phone while Denki, Mina and Sero walked over to her and Bunko.

"Guys, we're pretty sure Mineta is transphobic," Mina said. Atsui perked up at this. "Hm? Why do you think that?" she asked.

"I had a feeling," Bunko said while shaking her head. "I was talking to him and he pointed out how Matsuda-san is non-binary and said it's gross," Denki sighed.

Atsui started getting angry, why would someone say that? It didn't make any sense to her, especially since Mineta directed that towards her best friend.

"Ugh, I hate Mineta so much," Bunko said in annoyance. "I know! He's such an asshole. Like, what's the big deal with being transgender? Nothing wrong with that!" Denki exclaimed.

Mina nodded. "Yeah, he's disgusting. I don't get why he would say that."

"He can choke on a rock!" Atsui exclaimed angrily. "Yes, that's—that's good. I'm gonna steal that idea from you," Denki said. "Hey! I was gonna do that first!" Bunko said.

"What if I just..set him on fire?" Atsui thought out loud. "Mmm, I wouldn't see anything," Mina replied.

Some blonde haired guy (Katsuki Bakugou) suddenly appeared next to them. "Transphobic people are fucking weird."

The other five stared at him for a moment before agreeing and continuing on with their conversation.

———

A girl with long blue hair walked up to Atsui, alongside a girl with short pale blue hair (like—really pale blue).

"Hey! I'm Ishikawa Yoko and this is Omori Hotaru!" she said happily. "Woah, hi! I'm Atsui Mellow. You might've seen me on television before, though," she joked. Ishikawa and Omori laughed a bit.

"Oh, right, could I call you Ishi?" Atsui asked. Ishikawa nodded, "Sure!"

"Hm, Mellow-chan, would you like some candies?" Omori asked quietly. Atsui nodded happily until Izumi came over. "'Tsui, gig."

Atsui sighed and handed the candies back to Omori. "Sorry, I can't have any candies until my diets are finished." Omori nodded and put the candies back into her bag.

Ishi didn't hear and started getting concerned.

"C'mon, we can come back later after the show, okay?" Izumi assured her. "Remember, dorms," they reminded. "Oh no, is that bad? Should I call an ambulance?" Ishi asked nervously.

"Nope! I have a gig—like, soon," she replied. Izumi walked out, and soon Atsui followed after.

"Hey, ah, Izumi-kun?" a random girl said. "Please don't call me that," they say, visibly uncomfortable.

"Ah.. sorry. Well- Uhm- Anyways, have you read the letter that I've sent you?" she asked, looking hopeful.

"Apologies, but no. I haven't had enough time."

"Oh, that's alright!" she said and started giggling 'sweetly'. She looked over at Atsui and glared at her for a second before walking away.

"People are weird." "People are nasty," they both said at the same time.

"Let's go to the gig now, they said that they'll pull a limo up," Izumi said. Atsui nodded and started fixing her hair.

They stepped into the vehicle and took a seat. People were staring at the limousine, obviously not used to seeing such a car at a school.

"White limo! Yay!" Atsui said happily. "Are you colorblind? The cars black," Izumi said.

Izumi took out the love letter from their bag and tapped on Atsui's shoulder gently. "Atsui, love letter."

She turns around to face him as he opens up the envelope.

It reads; "Dear Izumi~senpai

I've known you for a while, or more like I've watched you from afar.. you might not know me but if you give me a chance, you would probably understand how good I am for you!

I know everybody says your non-binary, but I know it's not true! They all are just trying to make you look bad! I can help you!

I know inside, you're a man. Not whatever a non-binary is! We should date, and get married one day. I've already planned out our wedding if you'd like to see?

I love you, Izumi, I know you love me back.

~ Your future wife, Yua Watanabe"

Izumi stared at the paper in disgust, and so did Atsui. "Psycho..." "Worst one so far!" "Exactly."

"Oh, right, I gave someone my number today," Izumi started. "Woah, who?" Atsui asked sleepily. "Chinen." Atsui nodded.

"Someone commented on UA's official instagram account, on their most recent picture that Chinen and I look like twins." Izumi just shrugged, not sure how to respond to that.

Once they arrived at Atsui's house, they stepped in and took off their shoes before going into her house (that's literally massive).

"I'm gonna go make some tea, you want some?" Izumi offered. Atsui shook her head, far too tired to stay up for any longer.

She went up to the third floor of her house (where her room is) and changed into pajamas. After, she plonked onto her bed and fell asleep the moment she tucked herself in.

Meanwhile with Izumi, once his tea was done, they headed up to the third floor (where their room also is) and went into the room across from Atsui's (that's basically his room since it has all his stuff in there).

They went over to the pink-haired girls room and turned off the lights for her, whispered a good-night and closed the door.
