The New All For One

First Date

Had you told Mai Chisaki she would be going on a date with anyone, then you'd be paste on the ground within a second.

But now, here she was getting ready for a date with Izuku, her darling, her, cure, her hero.

She currently stood in front of a mirror inspecting her choice of outfit, she was no fashion expert so she was slightly worried about her looks. She wore a white sweater tucked into grey skinny jeans, tan brown heeled boots, and a dark green wool coat.

Then there was her hair that she'd let grow over the past few months, it wasn't long but the woman was deciding whether or not to cut it. Mai had always preferred to keep her hair shorter as it was easier to maintain and was less at risk of getting dirty.

She was brought out of her thoughts when there was a knock at her door, Mai gave a come in and in stepped Kurono.

"I was told to come and alert you that Izuku's here for you Ms Chisaki," he said.

Mai thanked the man and gave him the go ahead to leave, she walked over to her desk and picked up a book about architecture as well as some stationary and put them away. She packed up a brown leather backpack, left her room and made her way to the entrance of the compound.

Upon her arrival, she saw Keigo chatting with Izuku as he held Eri who snuggled into the crook of the boy's neck. A sight she couldn't help but smile at.

Izuku wore a grey hoodie, dark blue pants, tan boots, a matching tan coat, and his classic yellow backpack. His hair was almost completely white with only a few patches of green left on his head, it almost looked like a fluffy cloud.

"Morning Mai, ready to go?" Izuku asked as he put Eri down.

"Yes, let's get going," Mai smiled.

The first place Izuku had taken Mai was a cafe, it was a cosy place that wasn't ever crowded, and it was somewhere they had visited before. The 2 ordered some tea, Izuku getting Ginseng and Mai getting Jasmine.

"So what brings us here first darling?" the brunette asked.

"Well before we go any further, there's something we need to do," Izuku said.

The young pulled a sketchbook out of his bag a sliding it along to reveal a second, followed by other items including stickers, washi tape, paint markers, glue, and a few other items.

One of the hobbies Mai took up was art, or more specifically, drawing. Drawing places a lot of emphasis on one's observation abilities, which for the young woman was something her Quirk required as she had to understand shape and form when she reconstructed something. She also preferred to observe things from a distance like animals, people and other things without getting up close and risk herself getting dirty.

Mai had also gotten into a habit of customising new sketchbooks to give them some life, and alleviate pressure from starting a new sketchbook.

As the couple began customising a sketchbook each, a short woman with raspberry-pink hair delivered their tea.

They stayed at the cafe, finished decorating their sketchbooks and began to fill them with sketches of their surroundings for about an hour before leaving.

The next location on they travelled to was the Numazu Deep Sea Aquarium, which showcased various fish, crustaceans, jellyfish, and sharks. It also had three taxidermy specimens and two frozen specimens of a coelacanth, and a deep sea "planetarium" showcasing numerous bioluminescent species.

Izuku and Mai walked around admiring the marine life on show, stopping to read the information on the specific species the individual tank held. They did occasionally do a few quick sketches but tried more to focus on just enjoying their time there.
