Toru knew her father was cheating on her mom before she did. Toru hadn't said anything.

But her mom found out anyways.

Still, when Toru found out something she wasn't supposed to, which was always, she made sure to not say anything, unless she was positive it had to be said.

Like when she caught her best friend in middle school about to attempt suicide.

Or when she found her high school math teacher skipping lunches and throwing up after school.

Like when she caught Tokoyami cutting himself.

Or Bokugo picking a fight with Midoriya when the latter obviously didn't want to.

When Minata got his hands on a video of all the girls in the locker room (she didn't know how she felt about him squealing on how erotic her empty panties floating in midair were).

And when Ojiro got so sick he fainted in his bathroom door and didn't get back up.

These were the things she wanted to be a hero for. To bring out the secrets that would save lives, and to protect those which were nobody's business. Including hers.

This was why she crawled out to everyone's windows before going to bed each night. This was why she woke up early to check on them. This was also why she followed through whenever she thought something fishy.

She caught up on sleep in Cementoss's classes. Not like he knew. It was one of her signature moves: Inviso-Snooze

Modern literature...pfft.
