I'll do something about the Heroes: Rising movie later in the book, maybe a flashback or something because I just watched it tonight and it was AMAZING holy CRAP I was on the edge of my seat the whole time!!! *Cue unintelligible, Hound Dog-like noises sounding from down a dark alleyway at two am* IT WAS SO COOL UGHHHHH!!!! Highly recommend. Today's song is one off Diamond City Radio from the video game Fallout 4, definitely a great song to take you back in time. 100,000/10 👌👌👌👌👌👌

"I'm supposed to say... trick or treat?"

Christmas came and went without a hitch; we were all merry and joyful and Eri came to visit and celebrate with us which was super fun! Bakugo eventually put on a coat too, after Mina tried multiple times to shove it over his shoulders, and Denki got him in a hat for a second or two! One odd part, though, is somehow Eri got Tokoyami's white elephant gift, and she seemed to like the thought of carrying a ginormous sword. We eventually convinced her to put it down for a moment while we ate, but she ended up taking it with her when she left, so I guess it's not so bad?

I ended up getting a cute little spotted pig plush, which I added to my wall net of stuffed animals, and I'm pretty sure Shoji got the sweater I sewed. Other than that, I'm pretty sure Uraraka had a heart attack at how much food there was, everyone was surprised Sato can make food other than cake, and Todoroki invited Bakugo and Midoriya to Endeavor's agency for their work study.

Staring up at the ceiling from my bed, cat snuggled up next to my legs, I wonder who I'll be shadowing next. Maybe Yaoyorozu? No, probably not, the teachers know about her growth already from personal experience. Kirishima? No, they'd probably want me to choose someone who isn't working under FatGum since I already worked with his agency. Who knows at this point, I heard I'm getting assigned someone, so this will be fun.

Now that I think about it, I never worked with Ryukyu-

Someone knocks lightly on my door then, startling my cat a bit, but I only crack open my eyes lazily, too tired to care if someone wants to kidnap me. I'd just give them hell in the afterlife, "It's open, key is on the name placard. If it's you, Mineta-san, I'll squish your skull until it's flatter than an American pancake."

The lock clicks and Asui pokes her head through the crack in the door, hair up in a bow tie rather than the bow tie being halfway down her back, "Hey Kero." She smiles, placing a finger on her chin questioningly, completely ignoring the Mineta comment, "Can I come in?"

"Of course, Tsu-chan." I sit up in bed, my cat stretching out to take up more space in my absence, and point to the egg chair that's hanging next to my bed, "Please, make yourself comfortable, is something wrong?"

Asui closes the door and walks over to the egg chair, hands out in front of herself like they usually are, and hops into the egg chair, curling up in the donut blanket I have in it, "Not really, Kero, I just wanted to let you know Ryukyu-san was interested in taking you as a work study student. She said she'd use you for more than just taking notes on Ochaco and I." Asui tilts her head to the side, snuggling into the blanket a bit further, "She said she'll only take you for a bit of the break, though, because she doesn't want to be overwhelmed, Kero."

I smile warmly, "Thanks for letting me know Tsu-chan! If she does end up taking me on with you and Uraraka-san I'll be more than happy to join!" I tap my dominant pointer finger to my chin, "Now I'll just have to make up for the rest of the break and possibly work studies during the school year too..."
