"that's dumb." the blonde did not hold back, and you were starting to like that from him.

"i know and now i'm probably gonna have to stay home this weekend and do nothing," you sighed, turning to lean on the side of the tree the male wasn't occupying. "like i should probably train but that gets boring quick and i get easy unmotivated."

"then train with me, i can make sure you stay on task," he smirked. you could tell he was up to something but hey, it was a way to get away and not be yelled at.

"sure, porcupine... what do you normally do on weekends?"

"homework and training. i'm gonna be the first and only one from my shitty middle to get into u.a." he was proud of himself, and you looked over to him. he was already incredibly muscular and just judging by his character, he was probably incredible with his quirk.

"how's your quirk control? pretty great i'm guessing?"

"you be guessing right metal fingers."

"why do you call me that?"

"that's all i know about you and i'm not about to call you daddy issues." he scoffed at the idea and rightfully so. that was so much worse. no matter which way you looked at that suggestion, it was just making fun of your situation.

"so since we're gonna be training together, tell me everything about yourself," you moved so you were now sitting facing the blonde. he scoffed at the suggestion and you kept a straight face. "i'm serious blondie," you deadpanned. he lugged it off once again, looking at you like you had lost your mind.

but he eventually went along with the suggestion, which he even realized to be a bit weird for his character. he just had this feeling about you, that you were destined to meet this way. that you were to eventually become more than just neighbors or even classmates.

that you were special, and he needed to know why. and little did he know, you had the exact same thoughts.

..

the 10 months leading up to the entrance exam felt like a flash as you walked beside your best friend toward the gates of u.a. like your training with your new friend happened all in a dream.

"what do you think the practical exam'll be like?" you kicked your feet in front of you, nerves gathering in your entire being.

"probably some battle training or hero work, testing quirk," he guessed, slouching back as he walked.

"yeah... i hope we fight robots or something else that's completely metal," you thought, just thinking about how many points you could rack up. the written exam would be a piece of cake for both you and shinso, so you weren't even thinking about that half. the two of you approached the gates, you in a mix of awe and intimidation as other students were slowly filing in.

you put your own game face on and next to shinso, the two of you looked intimidating as hell, shinso's bags giving his eyes an almost dead look and your overall expression giving an 'i'm bored' and 'i'm gonna crush you all' vibe mixed together.

"ah, porcupine!" you call, pulling shinso's wrist toward your blonde friend he had never met prior. the blonde just glared with his mouth open in a perpetually angry expression, the name only could've come from one person's mouth.

"who's this?" he immediately looked past you and to the tired male you were hauling along.

"this is my best friend, shinso," you smiled. since your night long conversation with the blonde, the two of you had formed a natural bond. now you could only hope he would get along with or at least tolerate the purple-haired male. you heard someone mumbling and looked over your shoulder, spotting a green hair male talking to himself as he walked toward the entrance. he was going to trip if he didn't pay attention, and just as you watched he tripped over the pebbles in his path. you easily caught him but hesitated as another girl stood behind him, capturing his attention.
