Unaware of what her clones and close friend had concocted in terms of tailing them, Ochako was happily hugging Izuku's arm as they made their way to downtown Mustafu. They had just gotten off the train from UA and are now enjoying this early autumn day just the two of them. The author had forgotten to mention Eri in the past few chapters so he is doing it now, she is with Inko and Toshinori on a grandparent grandchild mini vacation to Tokyo. Now that the fourth wall break is out of the way, Izuku can be seen holding the door open for Ochako as they enter Rinchin's diner which is a few blocks away from Izuku's apartment. Rinchin herself is an older woman with black and semi gray hair with a pair of glasses draped on the edge of her nose. When she sees them she waves the two over to a table for two by the window allowing them to see out to the local park. Once they are seated she asks for their drink orders before heading off to the back to make their drinks.
Across the restaurant from them sit a trio of familiar faces in semi familiar disguises, Ahcha, Momo and Hagakure are sitting at a round table just out of their peripheral vision. Ahcha is wearing the same outfit that Ochako had met Izuku in for the first time at the entrance exams, Momo was wearing the Kamino disguise from the Bakugou rescue and Hagakure, bless her soul, is wearing the novelty glasses, nose and bushy mustache disguise despite her tight fitting long sleeve shirt and blouse revealing that she is actually a woman with the 'Stache-glasses. Ahcha forced Bakugou to tie her hair in a way that Izuku wouldn't recognize her, Bakugou only compiled after a swift kick to the genitals and being threatened with another coffee table. The trio sits semi-conspicuously pretending to eat their lunch and keep the camera on the Green Tea couple the entire time.
"Deku-kun, didn't you live around here before UA? What was it like? I lived in Kudaishi which is an hour train ride north of here." Ochako asks before taking a sip of her tea and setting it back on the table.
"I... Didn't have that great of a childhood, remember when Kacchan said I was quirkless during the first day? He was under the impression that I was. Truth be told my quirk hurts my body on such an extreme level that I couldn't use it until the day I saved you. For the first 15 years of my life I was treated like I was worthless, my childhood was akin to torture for the most part with my mother and now you being the only people there for me that entire time." Izuku explains averting eye contact and looking down at the table dejectedly.
"I didn't have that great of a childhood either, but how about we change the subject shall we? What do you think about all my clones now? Do you like any of them over the others or over me?" She says quickly changing the subject.
"All your clones are you right? The only difference is that they have one of your feelings personified as their dominant trait. Their body types might be different, sure but that doesn't mean I like one over the other. At the end of the day they are all versions of you and versions of the girl who I fell in love with, and I can't love one over the other if they are all you." Izuku replies, giving her a warm smile that melts her heart.
"You guys heard that right? He loves all of us equally! I can't wait to rub that in Bakuthot's face when we get back! Oh Izu~ you know just what to say to make me happy." Ahcha says holding her hand aside her face and blushing.
"I thought you were Haicha for a second there. You need to keep your voice down though we still have to bring them to the next place for their date." Hagakure says hiding her face in her menu.
"I'm almost jealous Ahcha, Midoriya may be shy but apparently he's a ladies man if that's all it took to make you swoon." Momo says in a teasing manner, earning the ire of Ahcha.
"What'd you say?!" She says in a growl tone holding up her balled up fist towards Momo as she holds her hands out away from her defensively.
"N-nothing." Momo replies as they go back to watching them eat their lunch.
