Ochako got home from Izuku's apartment. The rest of the villains had filled out their paper work leaving Mr. Compress to be the last if they could find him. She tried prying information from other people but not that many people knew about him even though at one point he was part of the League of Villains. Jin was pretty adamant about getting him to come along too.

She didn't want to give up without trying.

She placed everything back in the binder and started stripping off her hero costume before heading back to her room. So much had happened in a short amount of time on top of her very private break up with Iida. He still waved to her and greeted her but he was married to his job first. She understood that even if it hurt her more than anything else that ever happened to her.

We are heroes after all.

Ochako slipped on a long t shirt that had hippos with party hats and sat on her bed. She just wanted nothing more than to sleep for a month straight. She wouldn't miss on the pay or anything since she was already loaded and bought her parents everything they needed. She couldn't even tell her mom about the break up.

Suffering in silence sucks.

She started to doze off when she heard a creak. Ochako shot straight up in bed and reached between her nightstand and bed. She pulled out a rather large shot gun that was already fully loaded. Her quirk wasn't offensive in some ways and burglars used guns. She wasn't stupid. She was taught shot first, ask questions later.

Ochako floated herself up off the ground some and floated out of the hallway to avoid making a sound. She heard another creak of the floor boards making her poor heart pound erratically. Just as she whipped herself out the hallway into the living room she cocked her shotgun in time to see Dabi standing there.

"What the hell man?!" she yelled.

"I was just getting a water and to wait on you. I thought you were out!" he said holding his hands into the air, "I had no idea Uravity was down for using a gun. I'm quite surprised you're packing heat."

"Release."

She dropped onto the floor, landing without problems.

"Is everything ok?" she asked.

He nodded, "Just came to visit."

Ochako blinked.

"That's all?"

"Yup."

She frowned.

"Well, I was watching a movie in my room-

"Oh, well.... wanna make popcorn? I'm down for a movie."

He stood up and headed into her kitchen.

"Dabi-

"You can call me Toya."

"O-ok. Toya, why are you here?"

"I told you, I came to visit."

"You think you're coming back to my bedroom to watch a movie and eat popcorn?"

Dabi shrugged, "Why not? Unless there was something else you had on your mind?"

Her face turned bright pink.

"Excuse me?"

"You look kind of upset. Are you still upset over your break up?"

He's messing with me.

"N-no."

Dabi found her popcorn box and pulled out a bag.
