"FUCK! Where'd she go?"

"Dude, how the hell is she so quick?"

"I don't fucking know! I let go of her hand for one second to scratch my head, and she's gone!"

"Hand her off to me next time then," Kirishima suggested as he jogged to the end of the street.

"NO! You aren't holding my girlfriend's hand!"

He threw his hands up in exasperation, "I don't want to hold her hand, but unless we're buying her an adult-sized leash backpack, I'm going to have to!"

Both men suddenly saw a sun blow out in a dilapidated building behind them. Both of them groaned as they sprinted toward its shadowy depths. Sure enough, Lore was crouched down in the middle of a group of rough-looking individuals. All of them scuttled to hide their illegal substances before Kirishima and Bakugo could reach them.

Lore had her hand over a teen's tattooed one.

"Hi, what's your name?" she hummed happily as she focused her sun on his skin.

"P-Patrick..ma'am," he replied with a nervous look to Bakugo who was glaring at him in warning not to touch her.

"I'm not going to give you a lecture Patrick, but you're much too young to damage your body like this." Her bright orange light flared out, and Bakugo saw the hollow depths of his eyes puffed out to health once more.

"W-What was that?"

"It was my healing quirk. It won't stave off the addiction, but if you do decide to attempt sobriety it will help fight off some of the not-too-pleasant side effects."

"Sobriety?! Why the fuck would we do something like that? Just because some hot piece of puss tells us to?" one of the other drunken assholes slurred towards Lore.

Bakugo was about to blow his ass to hell when Lore turned towards him calmly. "Of course you don't have to do anything you don't want to. My effects can simply be a temporary pick me up from your current state, and you could return to this state in 2 weeks' time." She gave them a beautiful smile as she held out her hand, "Or you could use this offering to make a change. Your choice."

Bakugo watched as all the people around them crawled towards Lore who did not shy away from their unclean grasps. She accepted each and every one of them with a warm smile.

Kirishima was working on his fourth donut of the day as he looked at his best friend. People kept giving Lore free stuff as they passed. Since Bakugo was obnoxious about his diet, that meant Kirishima got to reap the rewards.

"I don't think they are going to hurt her man. We could step out if you wanted to?"

"I'm not fucking leaving her Shitty Hair," Bakugo grumbled unhappily. "I see why the old man told me good luck."

"Huh? Endeavor told you good luck? You mean he knew this would happen?! We keep losing her every time we pass a homeless person, a clinic, a sick kid, or someone who looks like they had a rough morning!"

Bakugo pinched the bridge of his nose. "I fucking know. I didn't think it would be this bad. I thought she'd just wander away for snacks or something."

Kirishima watched as Lore healed another person. Even he had to admit she looked gorgeous doing it. "You know, I feel like if she ever got out of the agency, she'd be really popular." Bakugo frowned at him in a clear warning. "I know she's with you, so I'm not trying anything. I am just saying that maybe this was one of the reasons Endeavor keeps her locked in the tower."
