Shirai and Kyouka headed to the cafeteria, to replenish their energy after the tiring first half of the day. They'd become fast friends, bonding over their shared passion for music. After ordering their food, they sat down at one of the many empty tables.

Opening a bag of rice crackers, Shirai wordlessly handed Kyouka an earbud, fitting the other in his ear.

"How about we take turns playing a song?" The white-haired boy suggested, tossing a cracker into his mouth.

"Sure. Should I go first?" Kyouka took the phone from where it sat on the table and found the song she wanted to play.

Shirai put the earbud down, and at Kyouka's questioning gaze, he said, "I'm gonna go to the bathroom. I'll be back." He'd enjoyed the first song Kyouka played, resolving to listen to the artist's other songs later.

Throwing his empty bag into the garbage on his way out, he exited the cafeteria only to realize he had no clue where the bathrooms actually were. After wandering around, he heard a voice that sounded suspiciously like Todoroki and headed in that direction.

"I was overpowered." Midoriya gasped. "So much so that I broke my pledge."

Rounding the corner, he saw Midoriya and Todoroki standing facing each other, having a serious conversation. Shirai quickly hid behind a corner, listening to them talk.

Todoroki took his left hand out of his pocket and stared at it. "Lida, Kaminari, Yaoyoruzu, Jiro, Masumi... none of them felt it. At the last moment, I was the only one who was overpowered."

Behind Shirai, Bakugou had been storming down the hallways, screaming curses in his mind because he'd gotten second place. Somehow (anime logic) neither of the other two boys had heard him yet, and Shirai quickly grabbed the explosive boy's arm and pulled him to the side in a crouch, covering the boy's mouth.

Bakugou tensed and struggled for a bit, before noticing that his captor was Shirai. Hissing at the white-haired boy, Bakugou scream-whispered, "What the fuck was that for, bastard?" Shushing the ash-blond haired boy, Shirai motioned towards the corner, once again tuning into the conversation.

"... Midoriya. Are you..." They could almost hear the boy in question tensing up, the dual-haired boy's voice low.

"... All Might's secret love child or something?"

Shirai couldn't help himself. "Pfft-" he covered his mouth, sides hurting from trying to hold in his laughter that threatened to burst out at the slightest provocation. Bakugou was just silent beside him, but the white-haired boy couldn't see his reaction because he was in front of him.

"Well? Are you?" Midoriya started stuttering. "Th-that's not it! I mean, even if I was, I would say I wasn't, so I don't think you'd believe me, but anyways, that's not how it is..."

He was cut off by the heterochromic boy. "Since you said, 'that's not how it is', that means there's a connection between you two that you can't talk about, right?" Midoriya gasped.

"Endeavor's my father. I'm sure you know that he'd been stuck as the number two hero for forever. If you have something from the number one hero, then I have even more reason to beat you." Todoroki then proceeded to tell his entire dark backstory, like the protagonist of a freaking anime.
