When you wake up you stretch out your tired limbs just like any other person would. You weren't like just everybody else though, because you were lucky enough to be attending U.A. and today just so happened to be the first day of the semester.

Your apartment is in midtown Musutafu, where you live by yourself in one of the many high risers. It's a fast-paced 15-minute walk away from the prestigious hero school you're finally starting your attendance in after waiting anxiously for months.

Part of you worried constantly about not getting accepted into the first year course because of your age difference, and you knew you weren't good enough to skip grades. You started schooling late, and even worse, you had a hard time grasping onto the materials back then because of your special circumstances.

It's the start of your first semester, where you'd made it in fair-and-square with your particularly strong plant based quirk and extremely devoted work schedule. It took you a lot of studying to actually pass those entrance exams.

"Living vegetation", Your quirk, allows you to quickly grow any plant that you think of out of most things, including your body. Instead of having human cells your body consisted of strong yet flexible plant cells. This allowed you to photosynthesize. You can't grow vegetation through heavy stone as fast, but all quirks have their minor limitations.

Other limitations included severe fatigue, and muscle weakness, fainting when trying to use your quirk too much. You need to be well hydrated with enough nutrients and vitamins in order to use your quirk, other wise nothing will grow.

You made yourself a quick breakfast and got dressed. Obviously not skipping out on the hygiene necessities, of course.

After the mediocre walk, entering the gates was almost awe-inspiring to you. You stopped and stared at the bold-colored arch, realizing you probably looked like a dweeb staring up at the unique-looking building just ahead of you. This is exactly what happened to you the last time you stepped foot in U.A.

You quickly got to your shoe locker put on a pair of indoor shoes. This was all prepared about a week in advance, when you toured U.A's campus. You place your outdoor pair back in the shoe locker with your student ID number on it. There were surprisingly a lot of people early on the first day.

Young and budding hero, support, and general studies students were chatting away in the halls, already busying themselves on the first day. Most of them seemed to be support majors. You could only guess this based on the things they were carrying though. Blueprints, and bags that were so heavy from the amount of books in them that the people carrying them on their backs would tilt over and fall.

You'd noticed other people that are around the same age as you, although they looked significantly older in some cases. Some of them even had facial hair, which was a serious rarity these days. Were you seriously about to be one of the scrawny ones? This would be extra embarrassing for you sense you were already older than the first and second years. When you picked up and paid for your uniform, you saw what sizes some of them came in. A big and tall clothes warehouse would've been sweating at these tailored uniforms.

If you were about to be known as 'pipsqueak' you'd at least be known as the pipsqueak who walks with pride, dammit!

It didn't help you with feelings of being small and helpless when the doors and gates and lockers were very big. Who REALLY needed such a necessity? Did Mt. Lady frequent here in her quirked-out form?

You remember where your homeroom class was from the tour the week prior. You walked into the room labeled 1A although it felt so wrong. 'Who needs such giant doors,' you thought, damn near tripping over the threshold on the way inside. Luckily you were the first one to arrive so no one saw your stumbling.
