Mardea the Blunt Matchmaker

The girls of class 1-A sat in the commons area of the dorms. The boys had left for a pick-up game of basketball, leaving the dorms much....calmer than normal.

“Wow, it’s so quite when the testosterone leaves,” Jirou quipped, setting down a tray of tea and sandwiches. 

“It’s almost weird,” Uraraka took a cup, “But at least we don’t have to worry about Mineta trying to creep on us.” 

Ashido got wide eyes, “We don’t have to worry about ANY of the boys eyeing us! Quick! Let’s talk crushes and girl stuff! Free from prying boys!” 

Lin smirked, “Cool your jets, Ash. Let’s not get too ahead of ourselves.”

Yaoyorozu perked up, “Oh, I do enjoy engaging in the gossip!”

Asui shrugged, “Sounds okay to me, ribbit.”

Hagakure clapped her gloved hands, “Ooooh! I like it!! Okay, first up, thoughts on Oijiro?” 

Everyone groaned.

“Literally the entire class knows you two are into each other,” Jirou finally took a seat beside Lin on the couch, “While he is good-looking, he’s all yours.”

Uraraka pondered a moment, “Hmmm.... he and I don’t hang out much, so I can’t really say anything. But he is kinda cute.”

Ashido bit into a sandwich, “Hesh cute, but noh ihn ma top shree.” 

“Don’t talk with your mouth full,” Asui crossed her legs on her chair.

“Who’s your top 3, Ashie?” Yaoyorozu asked, sipping tea. 

“Hmmmm...” The pink girl thought a moment, “In no particular order: Bakugo, Kirishima, Todoroki.” 

Everyone tensed and turned to Lin, who was munching on her sandwich.

“....What?” the blue haired girl asked.

“You’re not upset?” Hagakure questioned.

Lin shrugged, “Sho is a handsome boy. I’m not surprised you see that.” 

Asui tilted her head, “Ribbit, you’re not jealous?” 

“Why would I be? He and I are dating- it’s not like he can’t talk to other people.” Lin drank her tea. “We’re just teenagers- we still have a lot of growing to do, and lives to live. I’m not gonna limit him like that.”

Yaoyorozu wiped a single tear away, “That’s so mature and pure.” 

“It’s just how healthy relationships work. He needs that in his life,” Lin’s eyes seemed downcast, “Anyway, what’s the next question?” 

“Excluding Todoroki, who’s in your top 3?” Uraraka leaned forward in enthusiasm.

“Midoriya, Kirishima, Shoji.” Lin said instantly. 

“That, ribbit, didn’t take long.” Asui put a finger to her cheek.

Jirou elbowed her side, “You got some wandering eyes, Dea~” 

“I’m with Sho.” She smiled, “But if I was forced to pick again that’s my list.” 

“O-oh...” Uraraka glanced at her feet, “N-n-neat.” 

Yaoyorozu raised an eyebrow, “Something wrong, Ocho?” 

“Rosy Cheeks is just flustered because she’s being selfish about confessing to Midoriya.” Lin sipped her tea again, “And now that I said his name, she thinks she has competition.”

“WHAT WAIT WHO SAID ANYTHING ABOUT CONFESSING AND TO MIDORIYA OF ALL PEOPLE NOOOOO IT’S NOT LIKE THAT I-” Uraraka put her hands to her face and floated herself away to the ceiling.

“How is she being selfish?” Ashido asked, munching on more food.

Lin shrugged, “Uraraka is so absorbed in hiding her true feelings that she doesn’t see how Izzy likes her too. It’s starting to affect their friendship, but neither of them want to make the first move.” She poured herself another cup of tea.

Uraraka dropped suddenly back into the cushioned chair, “WAIT Izuku likes me?!”

“Oh....I see what you mean, Dea.” Hagakure raised a gloved finger, “And the fact that Ura only just now realized it proves your point immensely.”

Lin drank more tea, “But that’s none of my business.” 

Yaoyorozu thought a moment, “Well, the boys will be back in a few minutes. Should we lure Midoriya into a room where Uraraka is and let them talk it out?” 

“That sounds like they’re playing a weird game of 7 minutes in heaven,” Ashido retorted, “We need something else.”

“Guys I’m right here!!” Uraraka waved her arms, “I’ll tell Izuku I like him when I see fit!”

“And how long will that take?” Lin eyed her, “You’ve had these feelings for a while and so has he-”

“Lin stop talking.” Jirou nudged her arm again.

Lin raised an eyebrow, and turned around to see the boys beginning to open the door, “Nice ear, Jack.” 

Jirou smirked, “Don’t mention- wait what are you doing.” 

“HEY IZZY!” Lin turned and stood up on the couch facing the boys, “IZUKU MIDORIYA!”

“Lin no-”  Yaoyorozu tried to get her down

The green haired boy froze, “H-huh? What’s up, Lin?” 

“URARAKA NEEDS TO TALK TO YOU REAL QUICK CAN SHE GO WITH YOU TO YOUR DORM?”

aaaAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!! Uraraka’s inner voice screamed as her face turned bright pink. She flopped over, hands covering her face.

“Uh, okay?” Midoriya looked confused as ever, but began walking over to them. 

“Oh she will so kill you after this,” Ashido giggled as Midoriya took Uraraka’s hand and led her up the stairs.

Lin sat back down, “She’ll be thanking me tomorrow~”
