Just a quick note from me, I'm done doing the stuttered formatting for Tamaki's talking because it's starting to get a bit annoying. Just imagine everything he says still has a bit of the nervous wobble to it. It was really the only reason why I was writing it that way in the first place (I think, idk what was going on in 2019/2020 me's head when she started writing Tamaki like that...)

Also, I've just realised in the show they all refer to each other by surname apart from Tamaki to Mirio (and back), and Nejire to Mirio, but I've been writing them on a first name basis so let's just pretend they do actually call each other by their first names :) (because that is a lot of chapters to fix).

A week later_
Second Semester Begins_
4th Day_

I let out a small yawn as I walked through the busy halls. I'd not quite fully healed just yet, but I was now only walking around with bandages around my shoulders and pretty much just that. It definitely felt a lot better than having the entirety of my body wrapped up, so I take this as a win.

"Lionel," I heard Thirteen call from behind me and turned to see them following with Mirio, Nejire, and Tamaki. All of which seemed to have been picked up by the hero on their way down the halls.

"Morning, Mikha!" Nejire waved excitedly as she hopped over and spun around me like an excitable puppy, "you really don't have breakfast, huh? Just roll out of bed and show up whenever you feel."

That's not it. I just slept in this morning. I'm so hungry right now, don't talk about food, I'm begging.

"What can I say," I shrugged, "I'm super tired at the moment."

That's not particularly a lie. I asked Recovery Girl about it when I realised there was no chance I was going to classes last week because I just couldn't keep myself awake for longer than an hour a period. She just told me it was because I was healing, that was it really. I took that as my answer and decided to stay off for a while.

I returned to school two days ago after finally staying awake for a day without worrying about passing out while listening to whatever kind of boring lectures I'd have to sit through from early morning to late afternoon.

One good thing came from this though, I didn't have to stand through Principal Nezu's start of the semester verbal essay—I mean speech.

"Anyway, what's going on?" I looked between the four of them as the other three reached us and stopped, "unusual to see you guys like this."

I mean with Thirteen in the middle of the hall between classes—before classes even start for the day. It's weird.

"The first-year hero course have been introduced to the idea of the hero work studies," Thirteen answered, "the big four have been requested to go visit the two classes to give them a bit more insight into the—"

"Hey, hey, it'll be fun," Nejire cut the hero off, "exciting, right? Right?"

"I've already met them all," I frowned.

I also almost died while on a job protecting them.

Speaking of the first years, I couldn't personally speak with Class 1-B until the second semester started so I visited them on the second day back when I was going to get a bandage change from Recovery Girl. And also, the day before the second semester even started, two first years got themselves put onto house arrest for fighting. I have no idea who it was but based on what I've seen of 1-A over the few days I've been at classes, it was Midoriya and Bakugo. Or so I think.

Nah—it's very likely that it was those two.

"Anyway—" Thirteen gave the girl beside me a warning look before looking back to me, "the four of you make your way to class 1-A. Eraser will likely be waiting for you. Don't worry, you are exempt from your morning classes for this meeting."
