"This is our newest addition to the campus known as Heights Alliance, also known as our dorm rooms where we stay."

"Hmmmm...." Intelli hummed as she entered Class 1-A's dorm building and looked around, inspecting up and down the walls and over the ceiling and floor. Approaching one of the walls she used the tip of her right index and lightly brushed over the surface, rubbing that with the tip of her thumb to result in a slight frown. "So this is where U.A students congregate to once the day is over and done with, quite dusty. When were these dorm projects introduced do you know?"

"Principal Nezu said he's been thinking about doing this for a while leading up to their installation." Midoriya answered. "I'm assuming it's cause of all the villain activity that's been going on in this year alone I mean, it is a lot heh. So I guess after the recent things that have happened they decided to hurry up with the idea and set into play already."

"Hmmm, not close and, not even remotely quite. The idea for the Heights Alliance initially began exactly 23 years ago two days from now when crime around U.A spiked at a sudden 17.2% increase over a duration of two months. Multiple of those incidents involved U.A's very own students being the victims so as a means to combat the sudden spike of their students being attacked they introduced Project Heights Alliance to create home away from home. But the project was soon thrown aside because it was also during this time when-"

"All Might began to impact the drop in Japan's crime rate."

"Ohhh so there are some things you're familiar on without the use of your little guide there, my credits. You should refrain from using it more often."

"It just so happened that your question lined up with All Might who I've looked up to my entire life." Midoriya said. "Course I'd know when all the important dates of his career are."

"Hm." Intelli shrugged. "If only you'd share that sort of passion for knowing about the very school you're learning at, but I suppose school pride shouldn't be consumed by everyone."

"Not to sound rude or anything but, kinda sounds like you're pretty prideful about U.A given how much you know on it."

"Hush you dolt it's basic history on the topic of Japanese heroics and the upbringing of heroes, if you can't even manage to know a bit of it that's shameful on your end."

"I'm a first year, I still have a bit of ways to go."

"Quite, a ways to go from what it seems." Making her way over to the common area Intelli observed over the huddled together furniture with a coffee table in the middle, several magazines and manga volumes spread out over the surface. Along with the visual material was a video game controller that led to the discovery of a console connected to the television, the second year scoffing with a slight shake of her head. "Celebrity magazines, Shonen manga and video games after the teachings have come to an end for the day. Let me guess do pastime foods and drink consist of indulging yourselves in fatty potato chips and sodas to go along with this?"

"Mmm, not all the time." Midoriya hummed. "I know Yaoyorozu likes to make a pot of tea every now and then to go along with these little biscuit things while she studies, and Hagakure eats pretty healthy herself she's always got some kind of salad going on. There's actually not that many of us who eat a lot of junk food like that."

"Mmhmm, outside of closed doors that is. But behind them hmph, I beg to differ."

"Don't know, I don't really stick my nose into other people's business like that."

"Oh? And where was this sort of mindset the day of the Licensing Exam? Surely the both of us could have benefited so greatly had you practiced it."

"You seemed like you could have used a little help so I wanted to help. If I knew it was such a bother to you and you really didn't want any kind of help, I would have granted your request."
