UA High, Cafeteria; Lunch

It was now lunch time for the students. Deku, wanting as little attention as possible (despite what just happened), decided to sit somewhere secluded. More specificially, the corner. He hoped his classmates wouldn't notice him sitting there all alone and would just find a table themselves.. though this time luck was not on his side. There was no hiding that messy green hair, after all, besides Tsuyu Asui, he was the only green haired student known. Besides that, the 4 freckles in a perfect diamond shape, symmetrical on both sides and bright green, emerald eyes, there was just no way he wouldn't be spotted. Especially after what his classmates wanted to know. They would probably search for him until the end of lunch just to get a few answers. Deku considered the rooftop, but that was too obvious. Even to the best of his abilities, he could not hide. 

Deku notices a large portion of his classmates (read; all of them), and tries to look away and hide his face to not get recognized. No matter the effort though, he was spotted by the class beauty, Momo Yaoyorozu, AKA Yaomomo. "Look everyone, over there!" They all looked over, and their faces lit up, eager to ask some questions. Mina in particular was elated. Not only to ask questions, but to.. for a better term, find out his love interests. "Great job Yaomomo! Come on!" With that, the pink haired girl rushed forward, her class following along. They reach him, and Deku looks up. "..any reason all of you are here?" Kirishima speaks up. "Alright Midobro, no beating around the bush. We need to ask you some questions." Deku sighs, knowing that he'd be barraged by questions he couldn't answer, or just dumb questions. (read; from Kaminari)

But.. there was no use in running away now. Deku mentally prepares himself and gives them the go ahead. "Alright.. shoot me some questions. One at a time. Also, one question each." The class was disappointed. With their number, they would get 19 answers at best. Though they had about a thousand. "I'll start." Says Iida. "Where did you hide that handgun you spoke about during the attack? Our uniforms wouldn't be able to conceal that." Deku was honestly a bit disappointed in the class representative. He would have assumed with his smarts, he'd know how. Despite the disappointment, he answered honestly. "My uniform is modified to allow me to conceal weapons. I've got a handgun and 2 knives. Nothing fancy though." Iida, satisfied he was given the answer, thanks Deku and sits down next to him and begins eating, much to the dismay of the greenete next to him. He prefers to be alone. Yaoyorozu, eager to ask and learn more, goes next. "Where did you learn to fight like that? It's obvious now you didn't go to Shiketsu High, so how are you so skilled in what you do?" Deku replies quickly, wanting to get this over and done with. "Like I said after the interrogation with Toga, I was trained in a branch of the government since I was 4. The specific branch? That's classified, I cannot tell you." Yaoyorozu frowned, hoping to learn a lot. But the damn government and all their top secret stuff. Yaoyorozu too, sits down and begins eating, right next to Deku. Uraraka, wanting to get the most information possible, plays it smart. "Tell us all the information about you that isn't classified." Deku smirks. "I'm impressed, getting the most information you can with the restrictions I gave you. Anyway, I gave most of the information after the attack. My name is Izuku Midoriya and I'm 15 years old. My birthday is 15th of July. My occupation is of upmost importance to my agency, which is classified. That's all I can say to you.. Anyway, we can continue this conversation in the dorms after school, I'm hungry." The class nods in understanding and they all sit down at the table to eat making small, and not really important talk.

After lunch (right after the attack), classes flew by, and just like that, class was over. The bell rung, and people were in the halls, walking toward the exit. Everyone was rushing back to the dorms, eager to get more answers out of Deku. Contrast to that, Deku was walking as slowly as he could, but not too slowly that it's sus. He had his guard down (not advisable for him, seeing as if he was captured, the squad would have a harder time), but he didn't care. He was confident (with skills to back), that he could eliminate anyone who dares step in his way. On his way back, he didn't think of much. Just about what kind of questions he'd have to answer. He wasn't looking forward to this at all.
