I pocket a hand as we walk to the nurse's office, opposite hand in view as I look at my nails.
"As painfully short as these are, I want to grow them out." I think putting my hand to my side.
"Hey, Midoriya?" I look over to the green-haired boy and he hums, trying to fish out the pass in his pocket.
"We've been friends since school started, so I feel like I can trust you when I tell you this." I look around to see if anyone can overhear.
"Okay." He looks down at me, fully attentive. "Hit me. Not literally, please."
"If I tell you, you won't literally leave me alone, right?" I continue, moving my arm from my side and stopping the brisk walk to the infirmary. He gives me a nervous nod.
"I honestly don't think my quirk is good enough for the hero course." I breathe out, lips in a thin line as I see the twitch in his neck at the way I spoke.
He looked at me for a second, the tension is heavy as he wracks his brain for the words to say in response.
"Show me." He holds out his scarred hand for me to take.
"Midoriya," I say in a small voice, "you've seen it over and over, I don't-"
"Show me, please." He asks gently, still holding his hand out.
"I... Okay." I nod and shut my eyes for a moment, grasping his warm hand before looking into his eyes, my quirk taking over my hands.
He stands stiffly in place, emerald eyes trained onto my hand as my static envelopes my skin. It bites against the flesh, irritating the delicate layer.
I move my pinky finger, slowly starting to lose feeling in the digit.
"Come on, Midoriya. I don't want to lose feeling in it." I pull way from him and he lightly surrenders.
"You must be so tired, I'm sorry." He sighs and a bead of sweat falls down his temple at how he forgot already. We were just training with Aizawa-Sensei.
"It's fine. Let's just keep going, I don't want to be.." my eyes close rapidly and he notices, arms quickly going underneath my back as I faint.
