One For Midori!

Kota's Cynicism

Kota was... Unfamiliar with his surroundings to say the least. After Mandalay left, everyone went inside, and Deku thought it'd be fun to give Kota a house tour. Mina however was over excited; she grabbed the poor lad's hand and showed him all the games they had in the living room. Eri quickly followed thinking they were about to play a game.

"See this one? Eri loves this one!" Mina said as she presented the game to him.

Kota examined the case "Katamari Damacy?... The heck is that?"

"Oh! Oh!" Eri reclaimed with a raised hand.

Mina put a finger to her own lips "Hmmmm, Eri!" She said with a decisive point.

Eri smiled "It's a game where you roll a ball that things stick too. At first you start off small but the more things you get makes the ball get reeeeeally big! It's really fun!"

Kota tried picturing a game like that being fun. "Sounds weird..."

Eri shook her head "I-I promise it's fun!"

Mina chuckled "You guys can play it later, for now" she stood up with Kota being carried under her arm "To the kitchen!" She said with another decisive point, which Eri copied this time.

Kota turned to Izuku and reached for him when Mina suddenly charged into the kitchen.

Izuku lightly laughed to himself "Man,... I can't step in the way when she's like this. She's so cute! And now Eri is mimicking her!" He said to himself in a light squeal.

Meanwhile at the 1A Dorms. Kirishima had just returned, he didn't see Jirou among those in the lobby, and honestly, he was glad he didn't. He decided to go to his room first and think things over, after all, Bakugo and Jirou weren't really friends anymore. How could they be? Bakugo going back on his word is one thing, but he took his agression out on her in the worst way possible. He broke her arm simply because he wanted to...

All of these thoughts ran through Kirishima's head as he finally made it to his front door.

"Oh. Kirishima." The red haired student turned to see one of his taller classmates, Shoji. "Didn't see you at breakfast earlier. Are you okay?"

Kirishima threw out a fake smile "I'm fine dude. Don't worry abo-"

"Stop" that single word from Shoji was enough to make Kirishima freeze. "I understand we're not exactly close, but you don't have to lie to me. If something is bothering you, then don't worry, I've got quite a few ears that wouldn't mind listening to you."

Kirishima found the courage to move again and sighed "Thanks man. I just... Don't know..."

"Understandable, please don't hesitate to ask for help though. Your mental health is important." Shoji stated.

Kirishima nodded "I gotcha... Thanks man, I'll see you around." he said as he went into his room.

Meanwhile with Hound Dog.

The current pro was reading a message over on his computer, while Bakugo was meditating in the corner. He had been sent a few invoices from the principal on Bakugo's current condition. Hound Dog had nothing but good things to say. Ever since his parents had shown up and talked to him, the boy had been pretty easy-going. He could definitely see the sadness in his eyes though, especially when he saw Kirishima. It looked like Bakugo was holding his emotions back.

However, after receiving a certain email from the principal, he began to hatch an idea. Hound Dog grumbled a bit '... I think it's time we see if this treatment is paying off' he stood up "Bakugo..."

Bakugo opened his eyes "What's up?"

"Tomorrow... You and your classmate will be going to your remedial classes for the provisional license exam." Hound Dog declared
