MHA: A Cat's Way

Ch 83 Tournament Preface

"Fucking dumbass! I told you that I should have fought her!" Bakugou yells at Kirishima, who is lying on his stomach in the infirmary, bandages wrapped all around his torso. The shark-toothed boy gives an awkward laugh while rubbing the back of his head sheepishly.

"Yeah, I know. But she was super strong! I don't think I've ever been that pumped up before!" His brows furrow. "Actually, you started attacking before we could find out who would win. Think she'd be up for another round?"

Bakugou throws his hands in the air and stomps out of the room. "FUCKING DUMBASS!"

Injuries for the second event are relatively light, with the exceptions of Kirishima and Bakugou. Small cuts and deep bruises are the main problems. They wouldn't be, normally, but the sheer quantity of them has Recovery Girl cursing out Nezu in her mind, vowing to get her old hero cane to teach him a lesson if he comes up with anything else like it.

Apart from that though, there's one major issue, and that is the fact that the idiotic rat had given a student drugs!

Well, not drugs, but they might as well have been since that's what her quirk treats them as! Or perhaps they'd be more accurately classed as steroids, like Trigger? Either way, he shouldn't have done it! Especially since the only way they know of to calm her back down is even more catnip, but as a smoke! Honestly, sometimes Recovery Girl wonders whether or not the rat really thinks everything through or not.

She sighs as she puts down the test results, looking over at the sleeping student in question. She's sleeping oddly, at least from a human perception. She's lying half on her side and half on her stomach with her face buried in the crook of her arms, with her legs brought up to her waist. It looks incredibly uncomfortable, but only when applied to a person. When a cat does it, it simply looks cute. Recovery Girl isn't entirely sure whether or not it's a good idea to leave her like that, but she did choose to sleep like that after she calmed down...

She really needs to lecture Nezu about taking his 'entertainment' too far. At least Midoriya's notes about her quirk has helped her to understand that she shouldn't be overly worried. Other than the possibility for Catia not remembering the second event, there shouldn't be any adverse effects.

She'll still make sure to keep an eye on her though.

Midoriya blows softly on his takoyaki, idly wondering if he should make a device to help cool down too hot food. Unlike Hatsume though, who'd get to work on it as soon as possible the moment it entered her mind, he quickly dismisses the thought. It would take way too much work to get it calibrated to cool different food down to their ideal temperature. Not to mention that everyone has their own preference, so they'd need to be personalized for each person.

Plus, if someone doesn't want to just blow on their food to cool it down for some reason, they can just wait. It's ridiculous to make a dedicated device for that.

Still, as he eats his small lunch, he understands that he's really just trying to distract himself from the fact that he has a stalker. Well, that's a bit rude, but it still applies. It's especially creepy given the appearance All Might's civilian form has. If he was bald -and put on a suit that isn't garishly yellow- then he might be mistaken for Slenderman.

If the villain wasn't in a European prison.

As he throws his trash away, he sighs, knowing that the man will continue to follow him if he doesn't approach him first. He's rather childish like that. So, instead of trying to lead him somewhere isolated and trusting him to follow, Midoriya simply walks up to the man and meets his eyes.
