Worthless Necessity [HitoZuku]

Chapter 105 - Even a well lit place

"Ah... weekends..." Uraraka sighed, sinking into one of the chairs in the common rooms, "Feels like with all our training and school work and news on villain attacks... we're always busy somehow."

"You and Tsu have your work studies with Ryukyu, right?" Iida asked, and Uraraka nodded, "Yeah, there's that, but for now, a lot of the agencies with student interns are temporarily suspending the work studies. We're still working under them as interns, technically, but it's more dealing with office work instead of physical patrolling. It seems like all the heroes are busy with stuff, and they don't want to let us students butt in unless they know exactly what they're dealing with. I heard from Kirishima that both he and Amajiki-senpai were taking a break from Fat Gum's agency, though Fat Gum is still trying to help them get better with their quirks. Hey, Izuku, do you still do stuff for Nighteye?"

Midoriya looked up at the sound of his name, and he frowned slightly, before replying, "... some analysis... that's it... no patrols... even Togata-senpai complains about having nothing to do..."

Ryuto was busy fiddling with the television remote, while Reiko held the remote steady, so it wouldn't fall off the table.

"I mean... with the emergence of that new Nomu that gave both the Number One and Number Two heroes a run for their money... It's no surprise that hero agencies don't want to take the risk." Shinsou groaned; the lavender haired boy was lying down on the couch, with Shirou sitting on his stomach, "I was actually looking forward to the work studies, ever since Dad brought it up, but I guess things don't always go our way..."

Todoroki was staring at his phone, before he perked up, "I did ask my father about work studies... he's not too sure, but it seems like a lot of schools actually don't want any students to be having work studies. With the fall of All Might, and all the Nomus, things are a bit messy, but it's likely that they'll have to let students take on work studies for experience. Endeavor said that in the case that it does happen, he'll take me in as an intern."

"That's cool." Koda replied, "You went back home for a few days, didn't you. Did you... kind of... make up with him?"

"Not exactly..." Todoroki replied, taking a sip of green tea, "My sister and my mother... they are way too forgiving. My brother... he's still holding grudges against him. I haven't forgiven my father either... but I feel he's seen what he's done wrong... and is trying to change. I can't forgive him yet... but if my mother and sister are willing to give him a chance... I guess I should too. After all... they've known him the longest... and they just want everyone to be happy."

"That's fair." Iida nodded, "I won't pretend to understand what's going on in your family... but if you're going to give him a chance... then we'll support you."

There was silence, before a loud explosion rang out from upstairs.

"FUCKING RACOON EYES! STOP TOUCHING MY STUFF, YOU FUCK!"

Uraraka sighed, "And I thought we could have a nice, quiet day..."

Koda perked up, "We can go to the pet rescue center... the one I go to for volunteer work, and a small cafe opened near it. We can check it out."

"I don't mind going out. It's nice to get out of UA every once in a while; be normal kids for once." Shinsou sighed, "We have to stock up on pet food too. Didn't Kaminari try to eat cat food two days ago on a dare before Sato found him? I heard he ended up destroying most of our stock."

"Yeah... he did that... Also, a cafe sounds awesome." Uraraka smiled, "I just hope it's not too expensive..."

"If it is, I can pay." Todoroki offered, "My dad gave me his credit card number when we entered the dorms... I've only really used it to buy food..."
