As the green-haired boy fell, Kinich saw an expression of panic take over his previous one of shock. He can't save himself, his quirk hurts him. At this realization, Kinich eyes widened and he whipped his head around at Ajaw, " AJAW, THROW ME "

" YOU DON'T NEED TO TELL ME TWICE ," the dragonlord grabbed him by the waist and hurled Kinich at the boy as Ajaw cackled in delight, " WE SHOULD DO THIS MORE OFTEN !"

Kinich ignored him as he focused on the falling student, his arm was swollen and he clutched it and cried in pain. Reaching him, Kinich grabbed the student and tucked him under his arm. Activating his skill, his marks, the blessings from the Wayob, glowed as he grappled the roof of a semi-destroyed building and swung down to the ground

He landed on his feet gently and placed the student on the ground just as Mic announced the end of the exam, " IT'S ALL OVER!! " The teen's eyes widened and filled with tears before he passed out, lying on the ground, unmoving. The spectacle that both of them showed off garnered quite the attention

"That guy..."

"What was that...?"

"Was that a legit dragon?"

"He jumped right at that gimmick..."

"Must have a strength-enhancing quirk, but that was something else"

"What about the other kid? A dragon and what is that, a fucking grappling gun?"

"He also has horns and a tail"

"But with a quirk like that how's this kid get to be such a scaredy-cat?"

"He lights up like a glow stick at a concert"

"Was it all an act to throw us off?"

"Can't see how it helped him though..."

"Either way, both of them are something special"

Standing up straight, Kinich headed over to Ajaw, who was still in the spot from where he threw him, " HA HA HAH, SERVANT! THAT WAS THE MOST FUN THIS LORD HAS HAD IN YEARS !" The dragon turned into his small yellow pixel form and was floating around his head

"And, how did this Lord do? No, no, no. Don't answer that because WE DID ABSOLUTELY FUCKING IMMACULATE! " as the little pixelated nuisance talked his ear off, a small elderly lady was making her way toward the passed out student on the ground. She was using a cane that was in the form of a syringe and was handing out candy to every student she passed. If Kinich strained his ears, he could hear an elderly voice say, "Yes, yes. Haribo candy for all. Eat up"

Kinich wondered why someone (who certainly looked wiser than a specific elder in his tribe) would be allowed on the training ground when he heard a very sparkly student dressed in frills explain to the others around him, "That Mademoiselle... *sparkly wink and point in her direction* She's the backbone of UA, the youthful heroine, Recovery Girl." As he finished his first sentence, the granny leaned down and placed a kiss on the teen's hair, "Her quirk is a super healing factor. It's in large part thanks to her presence that UA dares to host such wild exams." Kinich watched in awe as the arm turned from discolored and bruised to pale white, smooth skin

The heroine in question, raised her head and addressed the crowd of students, "This one will be fine. Another hurt children?" Kinich himself wasn't badly injured, he only had some scrapes and bruises he got from random robot limbs going flying (usually from Ajaw going on a power trip and ripping the robots as thoroughly as he could). So he turned for the exit and walked on the path that would bring him to the presentation room all the students were in earlier. Being the first to return, Kinich sat down in his previous seat and Ajaw materialized next to him, this time in his human form. Allowing a small yawn, Kinich rested his head in his arms on the table

"Oh, is this lord's vessel tired?"

Ajaw poked him in the side of his head and got his hand slapped away in retaliation, "Shut up or you're going into time out"

"Fine, servant. This lord will be gracious and allow you to rest for ten minutes, " even before Ajaw said this, he felt how Kinich's heartbeat slowed and how his breathing became even, he mumbled, "Studpid servant, too vulnerable for your own good"

After ten minutes, the door for the room opened again, this time it was Aizawa who came in. The hero spotted the two and made a motion that pointed outside. The dragon nodded and was about to wake up Kinich but then he hesitated. However, he didn't hesitate for long, and gently picked up the teen and placed him on his back. Kinich stirred at the move, but didn't wake and instead nuzzled into the crook of Ajaw's neck as he half-mumbled into Ajaw's ear, "warm..."

He felt his face grow warm but hurried to follow Aizawa. Outside of the room, were Present Mic and Midnight, who engaged in pleasant conversation, while the three saurian whelps ran around their legs in what looked like a game of tag. With the arrival of the trio, the saurians all turned towards the couple and ran to them with happy chirps and squeaks while Aizawa went to stand by Mic

Allowing a soft smile, Ajaw secured the still sleeping teen with one arm and reached out to pet the whelps with his other. Seeing the whelps happily reunited with they're chosen parents, Midnight bid Mic goodbye and headed off. As she passes. Yamada looked at the two teens and the little energetic whelps that were grabbing at Ajaw's legs and tail, "Ready to go back?"

The dragon nodded at the two heroes and started off in the direction of the car that they all arrived in. The couple walked behind him and could see the dragon would occasionally talk to the whelps and readjust Kinich on his back so he was never in danger of falling. The detail standing out to both of them the most was how Ajaw's own tail slightly wrapped around the teen's, almost as if he was saying he was his
