Worthless Necessity [HitoZuku]

Chapter 111 - When everything is overturning

"Alright. As I said, due to our current assignment by the Hero Commission, we have deemed it too unsafe to bring work studies students and interns. We do not even know what we're dealing with, and while Midoriya's quick analysis skills, as well as Mirio's quirks will be a great help, we don't want to reveal too many cards too soon." Sasaki handed Midoriya and Togata a piece of paper each, "Here is a list of other heroes who would like to have you as short term interns, including the location of their agencies, what they would like you to do, how long you'll be working with them, and how much they'll be willing to pay, since these are paid internships."

Togata leaned over to look at Midoriya's list, and sighed, almost whining, "Aww, come on. We don't have any agencies in common?"

"Sadly, apparently not." Sasaki pushed his glasses up, "I was hoping you two could be paired together; you two are, at least, somewhat familiar with each other's fighting styles, and you can watch each other's backs. But I suppose you two are being requested and scouted for different skills."

Midoriya grimaced internally as he read through his list; he had gotten offers from various heroes, such as Enji, Fukukado, Takagi, Uwabami, and X-Less. Some of them were more tolerable, but Midoriya really didn't want to deal with noisy chatterboxes like Fukukado, or fame-oriented celebrity heroes like Uwabami.

And wasn't Fukukado a teacher at Ketsubutsu Academy? Why on earth would she want him as an intern when she had other students that she could take on?

Most of the heroes only wanted him for a day or two, so it was most likely just for analysis instead of major things like patrolling and seeking out criminals. That was, at least, more tolerable; Midoriya didn't think he could stand being around someone like Fukukado or Uwabami for more than two days.

"I'll give you some time to look over the different heroes, and do your own research." Sasaki sighed, "I'm sorry that we couldn't conduct proper internships and work studies for you two during a crucial period like this, but we don't have any other choices, considering that it's now mandatory."

"Ah ha ha, no worries!" Togata smiled brightly, "Things like that happen! A small set back isn't going to stop us from learning and improving to become heroes! Leave it to us, Sir!"

"Well, I'll just leave it to you to decide on which internships you'd like to take on." Sasaki nodded, "You two can go back to UA, if you wish. Just keep in mind that the dates of the various internships do not overlap. And please give me your replies within the week, so that we can make suitable arrangements with the other agencies as soon as possible."

--------------------------

Midoriya looked through all the options, and ticked them all off, leaving the sheet of paper in Sasaki's office before he left the agency with Togata; the elder boy had also filled out his form. He may not like some of the pros that were interested in his skills, but he would just suck it up and deal with it; if he was to be ready for whatever was to come, he couldn't let a small thing like his personal preferences get in the way of gaining experience.

Plus, if he could help people in the process, why would he pass up an opportunity to do so?

However, that just meant that Midoriya had a time limit. He only had one free week to finish up most of his Christmas gifts before he would be preoccupied with his work studies, and the fact that he still needed to work on Kinu's enclosure had slipped his mind completely. He had already finished his notes for fifteen of his classmates, and he could finish the rest of them relatively quicker, now that he had a good idea of the placement of all the notes and details.

Moashi's gift... maybe he could do that in conjunction with Kinu's enclosure? Since there was a two hour period of baking time to dry out the flowers and petals, Midoriya could use it to work on other things. Nah, that would be way too messy; Midoriya had no idea how long they would even need to finish with the enclosure, and he should get that done as soon as possible.
