Lyney, Lynette and Freminet in My hero academia

°Magician, Cat, Penguin, Reporting For Duty! Sir!°

Lying to Hawks was too easy. Thanks to a recent villain attack, he was too occupied to pick them up. So Lyney used this chance to lie, and tell him they were going to stay over with a new friend they made.

Maybe it was the situation where he was, but Hawks only sent them a thumbs-up emoji in response.

It worked out for them, so Lyney chose not to question it. He also decided to stop questioning Hawk's choices. He did decide to play hero and adopt three teenagers he didn't know anything about.

Even 'father' would be more cautious during the first week together. But other than being observed, Hawks didn't seem to think they were dangerous.

Big mistake on his part. Anyway, now they can work without issue. But they couldn't do it in their UA uniform.

So Lyney led his siblings through several streets, getting further away from UA until they reached an alley with a closed door. Lyney kicked the door open. At Lynette's blank stare, he simply smiled and entered first.

"Come on!"

Lynette entered after a sigh, Freminet took a deep breath and went after her. The whole way, he had been replaying that text conversation with Hawks. Thinking how Hawks took too long to respond, and probably felt guilty about it, or how they were lying and he trusted them, or seemed to trust them-

"Fremi?"

He snapped out of it in time to see the twins staring at him. Lyney was holding his hat, a hand inside as he dugged around for something.

After calling out to him, Lyney lowered his gaze and focused on his hat. He grabbed what he wanted and pulled it out, a circular shower head. He placed it on a falling pipe in the wall before pointing at it with a smile. Lynette gladly went inside and closed it before she started to change.

Lyney loosened his tie, and spoke in a neutral tone.

"Are you mad that we lied to him?"

Freminet glanced at his brother, seeing him start to pull the green blazer off, and fold it neatly before dropping it inside his open school bag.

He lowered his gaze and dropped his blue backpack on the ground.

"Not really, I know we can't tell him."

Lyney glanced at him.

"Then why do you look so sad?"

Freminet lowered his gaze to untie his red tie.

"I'm not..."

It's just that, he didn't want to lie to Hawks. The hero has been honest with them, and he treated them well. If possible, he didn't want to betray his trust.

Lyney sighed, that was enough to make Freminet lower his head and know his worries were wrong.

"Fremi, you need to realize what's important."

Lyney walked to him and moved his head down so their eyes could meet.

"Hawks, someone we don't know, or 'father'. Who's waiting for us back home. Who do you choose?"

Freminet stayed silent, Lyney frowned and looked at him with eyes wide in disbelief.

"Fremi, don't tell me you're actually considering it?"

He shook his head, his fingers grabbing onto his red tie for reassurance.

"No, it's not that. I was just... Thinking."

Lyney sighed once more, sounding completely exasperated as he rubbed his forehead. Freminet rubbed his fingers against the soft fabric of his tie after hearing it.
