❝Midoriya-kun, what do you think you do with a quirk that you don’t know how to use?❞ She looks at him with an air of seriousness backing her question, proving that she isn’t simply joking around like usual. ❝And I mean... a quirk that you can’t really train, because there’s no one to train you in how  to use it... anymore.❞

❝Don’t worry, I made sure to call for help the moment I saw trouble.❞ She quickly assures him, slinging an arm around his shoulders to further support his frame against her. ❝More importantly... what were you thinking, Midoriya-san?!❞ A chastising glare is shot directly into his eyes, her brows furrowed with frustration despite this being their legitimate first meeting. Kazue had seen much of Midoriya, particularly in thanks to the sports festival, along with a couple news articles. A single glance of him reminds her of his incredible acts, and she wonders to herself how he simply threw himself into the fray without a single qualm. Though, a solution almost instantly pops into mind once she reviews the very situation she’s in. Reluctantly, she sighs, her expression softening a tad bit.

❝Then again... I guess you weren’t thinking at all, huh? You just move without even knowing why.❞ 

Surveying the nearby area, she manages to find an empty alcove, and carefully leads him into sitting down. Wordlessly, she begins inspecting him as though she were a medical professional, or at least one in-training. The serious disposition from earlier returned as she checked for any actively bleeding wounds. ❝How are you feeling? Does anything hurt?❞

❝Sooo, are you going to make holiday cookies or am I just wrongfully assuming something...?❞ She really wants her cookies again. // @amplifyingtrace liked!

❝Uwahh-- look at you!❞ A shriek squeezed from her lungs the moment she lays eyes on the various scrapes. Sure, the wounds weren’t dire by any stretch of the imagination, but it still concerned her. She shuffles around in her schoolbag, searching for vials that she’s preemptively filled, and fishes them out to present. ❝You really are reckless, aren’t you, Midoriya-kun? Even in training... ah, just stay put, okay? I��ll apply it myself-- er, is that alright with you?❞ // @herosname / continued.

❝Monoma-san, do you have a preference of quirks to copy? Like, if you had a choice, what kinds would you go for? What if you have to improvise? Like, say you get stuck with one that you don’t get how to use, do you try to find something better, or--?❞

❝Todoroki-kun!❞ There she is, standing in front of his dorm room with arms full of cookie tins and popcorn bags. As carefully as she can, she balances the items in one arm while the other stretches out to knock on his door. ❝Hey, Todoroki-kun! Come watch a Christmas movie with me! I have snacks and everything! Please?❞ // @shcuxo

[sappines]

❝Hey, hey, Toko-kun!❞ She skids to a stop about half a foot before him, immediately also halting her boyfriend’s movements. ❝I had a great idea! We should go on a real night out in the woods on the day before Halloween! Wouldn’t that be fun?❞ // @umbca

[sappines]

❝--Yep, it definitely is. I can’t deny that.❞ Suddenly, she’s a tad shy, avoiding his eyes with a timid smile. // @glacioignis / continued.

[sappines]

❝Hmm?❞ Her gaze flicks to the boy beside her, immediately noting how young he appeared. In her arms lay dozens of flowers, all different types. ❝Hey there -- are you curious about these? ... Or why I’m carrying so many?❞ // @watersplxsh liked for a starter!

She wants to press further, to ask if he’s sure, but even if she did, the response is bound to be the same. A concerned groan rumbles from her throat. Hesitation had never stopped her before, yet here it was, knocking her down with full force. As soon as she decides to shove all of that aside, he speaks again, his eyes turned away from her.

❝Hrmmmm.... ❞ She has to go with it. ❝Yeah... it is really nice. Pretty, too. ... I like coming up to the roof to look at the stars, honestly. It reminds me of the sight I saw every night back at home.❞ Finally, with conviction, she glances his way. ❝How about you?❞ // @rcsentful / continued.

His focus is intense, almost mesmerizing. He's not doing anything more but writing, pausing every so often (likely to think, only to then proceed to write more). It catches her curiosity, and she's never been one to mind her own business. Somehow, she'd been able to close the distance without his knowledge, watching intently as he scrawled down notes. At first, she presumed they were for class, but after catching sight of some stray characters, she realized they were for something personal -- some form of analysis.

❝Whoa.❞ Her awe manifested verbally, unbeknownst to her until the millisecond after it leaves her lips. Whoops. ❝Uwahh-- sorry! I didn't mean to sneak up on you like that! I got really curious, because you looked so focused, and I had to see what you were doing!❞ // @smcsh

[sappines]

❝Hey, hey, sorry-- could you hold this for a minute?❞ Though somewhat frantically, she stops the first person she sees wandering the halls. In her arms is a large burlap bag, packed to the brim with soil. ❝I need to grab a bucket or a basin real quick because there’s a tear in the bag and I don’t want to get dirt all over the floor...❞ // @allspirant liked for a starter!

❝It could probably use some more sunlight, but other than that, it looks just fine! You’re taking really good care of it.❞ Fingers brush against vibrant green leaves, a satisfied and bright smile against her own lips. ❝It looks really happy. You must be a really attentive mom!❞ // @amplifyingtrace liked!

[sappines]

❝Akemi-san!❞ With a bright, cheerful call of her name, Kazue hurries to catch up to her, whether or not she needed to. ❝Hey, you wanted to get lunch together, right? Come on, let’s go!❞ // @stlmidn liked!

[sappines]

❝Ah, wait, wait--! All Might-sensei!❞ She’s almost quite literally jumping at the chance to catch up to him, skidding to a halt just in front of him. ❝I wanted to ask: how’ve you been holding up? I know waiting for everything to heal has to be a major pain... but! I have something that might help, if only a little!❞ Without haste, she rummages around in her schoolbag, retrieving a pair of vials. 

❝This is the mineral salve I make using my quirk. It’s chock full of all sorts of vitamins and stuff from plants that help heal injuries faster. You don’t have to use them if you don’t want to, though! They’re probably not as advanced as the care you could get from Recovery Girl or professional hospitals...❞ // @symbolofpxace liked!

❝Wh...? Oh, no, I’m fine! I just didn’t get too much sleep last night, but trust me, I’m good!❞ Her laugh is weak, incredibly sheepish, as though she’s trying to hide something but doing a poor job doing so. That’s likely because that is exactly the case. // @enboltrat liked for a starter!
