"It's going to be amazing!" Mina drawls, half-asleep. 

"Mmm hmm." Ochako hums, eyes closed as she lays on the common room's floor.

Mina looks out the window. The sky is almost pitch black, star-spangled and free of clouds.

"I think I'd wanna do it on a night like this." Mina says, pointing out the window.

Ochako rubs her eyes, looking out the window and following Mina's pointing. "Ask her out at sunset. That'd be romantic." Uraraka says, mustering as much energy as she can.

"I don't know..." Mina says dramatically, leaving Ochako waiting excitedly. "If I ask her out at sunset, you'll barely be able to see the fireworks..." Mina taps her chin in thought.

"Fireworks?" Ochako giggles, slapping a hand to her mouth. "You're going to buy her fireworks just to ask her out?"

Mina places her hands on her hips. "Frankly, Uraraka, I'm concerned that you wouldn't do that."

Ochako sat up. She was clearly less sleepy now, snapped out of it by Mina's antics. "Ashido, you should just go for it. I'm sure Asui- I mean, Tsu wouldn't decline." She said supportively, giving her a kind smile. She stood up, drinking the last remnants of her tea and zipping up her hoodie.

"It's late. We better get to bed." She said, yawning.

"How many times do I have to tell you? 1 A.M. is not late."

"It's a school night," Uraraka pressed, "Aizawa will kill us if we're late."

Mina pouted. "He loves us, he'll cut us slack this one time." She waved her hand, dismissing Uraraka's concern.

"Come on, Ashido." Uraraka says, and Mina can't say no to her cute pink cheeks and chocolate brown eyes. They shimmer in the golden-orange lightbulb's glow.

"Fine. We'll continue this tomorrow night?"

Uraraka nods. "Of course." She hugs Mina from the side before yawning and walking up the stairs to her dorm.

Mina groans, taking one last glance at the ink-black sky before retreating to her dorm.

Mina isn't one to do anything underwhelming — she isn't one to anything less than extravagant.

She has to wake up early, because unfortunately Uraraka is a really good friend and keeps track of Mina's unfinished assignments — there were a lot.

After painstakingly racking her brain for answers to impossible maths equations, throwing on her school uniform, dousing her hail in gel — it takes a lot to get her hair how she has it, okay? — and humming the entirety of that one anime that she can never remember the name of's theme song in entirety, she skips out the door, heading to UA.

Mina's head was clouded with busy, obnoxious thoughts about Tsuyu. She had never felt this way about someone before, maybe that's why she was going just so over the top. She hated to admit that just last year she was scared she would never like anyone.

Tsuyu was cute and kind, and Mina admires just how blunt she was. She can't help but giggle and smile like an idiot when Tsuyu would say something like it was the most obvious thing in the world, or reject something with no hesitation.

She feels like the main character in a Shōjo — a blushing, crushing mess.

She loves it.

It was the most exhilarating feeling in the world.
