Bird boy was quiet and sullen as he walked her home.
Was he always like this?
Recovery Girl allowed him to change back into his school uniform, revealing that he was a bit scrawny.
Kitsune walked in front of him with her bag slung over her shoulder. They walked in silence.
Internally, she scolded herself. How could she have been so stupid to let someone use their quirk on her?
She felt horrible thinking about what people would say when she returned.
They would make fun of her for passing out on her first day.
She didn't notice she had stopped, nor did she notice the tears welling in her eyes.
The boy looked at her with concern. "Are you alright?"
"Yeah!", she said, feigning a smile, "I'm just a little embarrassed about today."
"You should think before you do things", he told her.
"I know..."
"Nevertheless", he continued, "Things happen. It's fine."
The demon popped out of nowhere and brushed its head against her.
"Dark Shadow, stop that", he reprimanded.
Kitsune laughed. "Dark Shadow? That's its name?"
She pet the demon and it smiled.
"Yes and its acting out of the ordinary."
"I think it's cute."
The boy's red eyes darkened.
"There is nothing cute about my quirk."
Kitsune stepped back a little, sadly letting go of Dark Shadow.
"I'm sorry..."
He sighed. "No, it's alright."
"Kitty!"
Ravan came jogging down the street, wearing casual clothes.
"What are you doing here?", Kitsune asked, glad he was there to break the tension.
He flashed her a dazzling smile.
"It's healthy to ditch class every now and then. Now the real question is, what are you doing here?"
Kitsune scratched at her neck sheepishly.
"I kind of passed out."
"Really?"
"I'm walking her home", the bird boy stated.
Ravan waved a hand in dismissal.
"I'll walk her home, don't worry about it."
He linked his elbow with Kitsune's.
"So tell me, Cutie. How'd you pass out?"

Tokoyami watched the two walk away.
Kitty.
They must be fairly close. Boyfriend maybe?
Who knows. He wasn't going to pry.
He turned around and headed home. The clouds started to darken; it was probably going to storm soon.
Tokoyami didn't mind the rain.
He picked up a flower that had fallen from Kitsune's bag off the ground. He stroked the soft petal with his thumb.
How was such a delicate girl in the hero course?
Much different from the girls in his class.
But maybe she has her own way of standing out.
