Sitting on her couch doing nothing but watching Youtube videos on a Friday evening, Ochako Uraraka stuffs a fistfull on popcorn into her face hole. She doesn't care. Why would she? It's not as if anybody ever pays attention to her. She's 15 years old and still hasn't done anything useful with herself. She knows she'll regret this later, after all she attends a prestigious school full of professional heros and they hold her to the same standards as they do the pro heroes. She can't get chubby and she especially cannot be out of shape. She could not care less about the high standards she's being held up to.

Meanwhile, taking her second nap of the day, Tsu Asui is sprawled across her bed like a starfish after a long day of sweat and exercise at school. Becoming a hero can be difficult, and Tsu doesn't like difficult things. Maybe she just wants to sit in bed all day and do absolutely nothing. Would that be so bad? What if she only ever woke up to eat or drink? Sounds like an adequate way to spend a day to her.

As this is happening, Eijiro Kirishima pours himself a bowl of Raisin Bran. Of all cereals to choose from... Lucky Charms, Frosted Flakes, Cap'n Crunch, Lucky Charms... he got Raisin Bran. This is a very wholesome meal indeed, as it is accompanied by a nice, tall, condensating glass of water. He takes it to his room to eat it and watch Netflix until he physically cannot stay awake any longer. Just like every other night in his life. Why not?

Of course you can find Katsuki Bakugo working out in his bedroom in the meantime. Not like there's anything else to do anyway. Katsuki only works out to distract his mind from all the things in his life that constantly burden him. His thoughts are always drowned out by the perspiration dripping down his forehead as he deadlifts far beyond his body weight. He always wants to stay on top of his game in case anything were to ever happen that required a big, strong, manly man. Bakugo was always told that he needed to be that man, so he worked hard to make that his goal.

Izuku Midoriya lets scalding water pour onto the green mop on top of his head, unaware of anyone else besides himself at this moment. It's just him, in this shower, with the hot water steaming up the bathroom, and nothing else matters. You know what they say... "Taking hot showers is usually to replace the warmth of human affection." With a mother that always worked and a father who couldn't care less about his well-being, that statement proved to be true. Naturally, he wanted more. Somebody who would love and nurture him, who would be there with a tissue to wipe his tears when he cried, and who would laugh with him. Is that too much to ask? It most likely is. Oh well...

The sun set that night and cast its brightness upon the sky the next day. Birds were chirping, flowers were growing, there was a lovely breeze, and it was just overall a nice day. Tsu was the first one awake. The first thing she did was sit up and check her phone.

"Kero..... ugh..." she groaned as she rose from the indent in her mattress where her butt just was to get some water. Her hair was all in her face, trying to creep into her mouth. Nope, not today. Tsu puts her hair up in a high bun.

Katsuki Bakugo was the second one awake. He fell asleep due to exhaustion from deadlifting all night. Next Eijiro Kirishima awakened from his long-lasting rest, then was Izuku Midoriya, and then was Ochako Uraraka.

As Ochako woke up, she found herself with a burning hunger for a tall cup of coffee from the cute local coffee shop. So, she managed to pry her body from the comfort of the couch and put on a cute-ish outfit. She brushed her tangled mess of hair, put socks and shoes on, and left the house. Each second she continued on without the taste of coffee made her hunger grow MORE! Finally she arrived at the coffee shop. Her taste buds yearned for the sweet taste of a hot coffee on a Saturday morning. Standing many feet in front of her, the door was held open for her by a nice young lady with dark eyes and green hair. However.... Ochako wasn't close to the door yet. At all. Which made this encounter very awkward. Ochako scooted like a penguin trying not to make the pretty lady wait too long for this slow turtle woman to get to the entrance. "...Thank you..." said Ochako, trying to be polite.

"No problem at all!" Replied the kind, green-haired lady, closing the door after Ochako. "Also, I love your outfit! It's so cute! Where'd you get it?"
