PL: alright, that's lunch. You can leave

*PL said, and as if they were a stampede, most of them left running. Izuku waited for all of them to leave, before he got up, and started walking out too. He stopped and looked at his table. Mei was still tinkering with one of her babies. So he walk up to her, and sat back down*

Izuku: Mei. It's time for lunch

Mei: I heard PL sensei. But I have to finish this

*Mei said without even looking at him. But izuku didn't walk away, since he started classes, he noticed quite the easy pattern. Mei never went to lunch, she always worked through it, and never ate anything, but chocolate bars*

Izuku: will something happen, if you don't finish it in the next hour?

Mei: yes. It'll take me longer to finish, by a whole hour

*Mei said with a small frown, she was getting frustrated, since this baby was having a tantrum, and didn't want to come out. Aka, she was having trouble, building it*

Izuku: ah. I see. You know what I think?

Mei: I'm sure I don't care.

*Mei said in a annoyed tone, she cursed under her breath. As the part she was working on broke. She wanted to go find a new one, but she couldn't with this annoying boy in the way*

Izuku: and I'm sure I'm gonna tell you anyways, I think your concentrating too much on a tree, that you are missing the forest

Mei: uhu.

*Mei said annoyed, just wanting to get the conversation over with. She went from annoyed to mad, when izuku took the piece she broke. That anger quickly left, when izuku fixed it in less than a minute. He gave it back to Mei with a soft but kind smile*

Izuku: and if you keep concentrating on one tree. It'll end up hurting your forest

Mei:.... I'm listening

*Mei muttered softly, as she looked at the fixed piece. The hole she made was still there. But izuku managed to make it work around the hole. Izuku's smile became bigger as he got up and started walking away from the girl*

Izuku: think about if, if you don't eat, you become weaker. If you become weaker, you'll be hospitalized. And if you become hospitalized.....?

Mei: I won't be able to make more babies

*Mei muttered in realization, as her eyes become bigger and bigger. Izuku turned around as fast as lightning to face her, with an almost crazy smile*

Izuku: exactly. And I for one, refuse to let that happen

Mei: why?

*Mei asked curiously. She doesn't even know the boy's name, all she remember that it starts with a "U"... Or ends with a "U" there's a"U" in there, of that she's sure. Izuku for his part, sat down he didn't smirk, he had his default smile on, since he wasn't being arrogant or confident, he was speaking the Truth.... The truth from his point of view, at least*

Izuku: because let's face it. You and me? We're about the smartest people in our class. The rest are beneath me. Beneath us. But in you? I see someone who can be my intellectual equal

Mei: equals? I've built more babies then you

*Mei asked Innocently, izuku just chuckled and wagged his finger at Mei, it may be true that on numbers Mei has him beat 3 to 1, but izuku has an ace in his sleeve*

Izuku: yes, but my projects don't blow up as much as your babies

Mei: but I don't want to eat in the cafeteria.
