Sneaking into School

Akihiko x FeMC

A/N: First time posting one of my fics to tumblr. I've usually posted on fanfiction.net (back when that was a thing) and more recently on AO3. Hope you enjoy! :)

Summary: This is what I wish had happened when SEES sneaks into school to find Fuuka. Any chance to show Akihiko as an awkward oblivious idiot.

> In Gekkoukan High, classroom 2-F...

“First, we have to find the key to the gym.” Everyone nodded their heads in agreement, “We'll split up into two groups and meet in the main hallway on the first floor. Understood?”

“Which places are we checking out?”

“The Janitor's room and the Faculty office.”

“The Faculty office, huh?” Junpei begins to grin with eagerness. “Hey, maybe we'll find some test questions!”

Upon hearing his statement, a mischievous smirk starts forming on Mitsuru’s features. “Are you planning something unscrupulous under my supervision? If so, then expect to be severely punished...” Despite the smirk, there was something about the glint in Mitsuru’s eyes that made Kotone pause.

Kotone nervously glanced to Junpei, “I don't think she's kidding, Junpei-kun.”

The said boy's eyes got wide in fear, stammering as he thought of the consequences he could be facing, “It-it was a joke! I'd never do something like that!” He began to laugh nervously, but Student Council President did not appear reassured.

“...Perhaps I'd best take Iori with me to the janitor's room.” Mitsuru slowly turned to Kotone, the female leader that's been leading them thus far in Tartarus battle, “Shiomi, head to the faculty office. I'll leave it to you to choose who to take along with you.”

“I'll go with Shiomi.”

> In Gekkoukan High, main lobby...

Because of Yukari's fear of ghosts and being alone, it seemed reasonable to leave her with the larger group. Sanada Akihiko had much experience in battle before, so Mitsuru approved Akihiko's request to accompany the recent transfer student to the faculty office.

It's not that it bothered Kotone or anything. It simply surprised her that Akihiko suggested such a thing.

Mitsuru had left the decision up to her, but Akihiko seemed to almost jump at the opportunity. Kotone’s mind couldn’t stop the racing thought that maybe he had wanted to be alone with her. She had a strong urge to confirm his reasoning.

“Um... Akihiko-senpai?” The second-year called out, still following after the senior toward the opposite hallway they came from.

“What is it?” He responded curtly, still walking ahead.

“Why did you---”

“Sh!” Akihiko had suddenly stopped in mid-step, halting any sound from coming out of her mouth with a raised hand. “Do you hear that?”

Kotone listened: the sound of footsteps could be heard distinctly in the distance. The footsteps sounded as if they were coming closer to the pair.

“Who would be here at this time of night?” Akihiko asked quietly to himself, urgency evident on his face. “Hurry, behind the pillar!” The silver-haired senior grabbed Kotone by the arm, pulling her behind a pillar with him.

Kotone’s cheeks reddened ever so mildly. “Um... Senpai--”

“Sh!” Akihiko hushed, swiftly covering her mouth with his right hand and effectively cutting off any more words escaping past her lips.

Akihiko had shoved the poor girl against one of the pillars, her back against the frigid stone. He was leaning in close to her, attempting to fit their bodies within the width of the column. His hand remained over her lips as he stealthily observed the shadowy figure of a security guard coming closer to their pillar, a flashlight in hand. The security guard stopped a moment, flashed in arbitrary directions around the room before moving in the direction toward the opposite hallway, where the pair had come from previously.

Akihiko continued to have his fingerless gloved hand cover her mouth as he still heard the heavy footsteps of the security guard.

Kotone looked up to her senpai, hoping Akihiko couldn’t feel the warmth emanating from her embarrassed red cheeks. She practically begged in her mind for Akihiko not to look down and see how incredibly bright her cheeks were. She had never told him, but she admired him: his passion to get stronger to protect his loved ones, his passion to continue fighting and his determination that never seemed to fade. She couldn't deny the fact that she had developed a sort of school-girl crush, but she knew that he wouldn't give her the time for her... at least not yet. She wanted to prove herself worth of his affection.

But being in close proximity with him made her heart race.

She could smell his scent, faint as it was during this time: the smell of persimmons. Probably from his club activities, always training around the persimmon tree at the school.

She stayed as still as a rock until she couldn't hear any trace of sound from the hallway the security guard had just entered.

When the main lobby and the hallways became completely quiet once again, Akihiko let out a sigh of relief and looked down to his companion at the same time as she looked up at him again.

Their eyes locked, and Kotone swore she could hear a clock ticking in the distance with how long they had been staring at each other.

When Akihiko finally realized that he still had his hand clamped over her mouth and the proximity of him leaning over her, he hurriedly took a step back, swiftly followed by his hand that had been covering her mouth. Kotone could tell he was embarrassed as he averted his gaze from hers, “S-sorry about that. I didn't mean to be so pushy.”

“D-don't worry about it... Let's just go,” Kotone suggested, leading the way to the faculty office, leaving her question of the groups to herself for the time being.

Akihiko looked after her with mild surprise at her behavior, “...Right.”

They stare at the spot where the group disappeared, in a slight daze. You wave a hand in front of Seven's face and they don't react. They simply say, "You and Sam are friends, right?"

"We're in the same group in class. Why?"

"Cool, cool," they respond awkwardly. "Can you put in a good word for me?"

You frown. "What? Like for a job or...?"

Seven breaks out of their daze to cut their eyes to you, unimpressed. "No, you doofus. I mean a good word. You know..." Seven makes a sheepish face.

Oh.

[choice]: "Sam's taken," you lie.

It comes out before you can think. You don't know why you lie, but it's out there now. Taking it back would be...

Well, Seven would just find you odd at best and pester you at worst. You can just say you're not sure. So...why don't you?

"Really?" Seven asks, pouting. "I didn't know."

"Yeahhh..." You rub your arm awkwardly. "Guess you're out of luck."

Seven looks at you, an expression on their face you can't read. They stare at you in a way that makes you squirm. Not suspicious but not oblivious either. It's almost like they know you're lying but can't figure out why.

You don't even know why.

When you think Seven might confront you for being a dirty liar, they shrug and look away, a secret smile on their face.

"Eh. It's surprisingly not that disappointing." They go back to working, appearing as if they're laughing to themself. What's so funny, you wonder. Ugh. Why lie? "There's plenty of fish in the sea, right?"

"Riiiight."

“It ain’t a pony ride out there, boss,” he says, tone neutral, but Jason can hear the undercurrent of bitterness in it, “Ain’t nobody lookin’ to hire one like me ‘cept crooks. Penguin had decent enough pay and didn’t have us doin’ gutter work, ‘s more than I’d coulda asked.”

Jason hums, coming to a slow stop in front of the man to stare him down through the expressionless lenses of his helmet. Behind him, loading a truck advertising “Daisy’s Floral Florist” full of drugs hidden in boxes packed with plastic bouquets, his goons pretend like they’re not listening with rapt attention to the exchange taking place.

Jason nods, tilts his head, nods again, and then jams the barrel of a gun into the soft underside Dave’s jaw, “I don’t believe you.”

Dave, to his credit, doesn’t flinch. Doesn’t even blink. Just keeps staring straight ahead, stance open, like they hadn’t first met each other when Jason was drenched in blood and chucked his predecessor’s head at him with a dry “Congrats on your promotion.” Like the Red Hood isn’t the definition of violence waiting to happen.

It fucking pisses him off.

Jason snorts and holsters the gun in one smooth motion, stepping back.

“But you’re in luck. I need a second pair of hands to run things for the next job when I’m-“ picking my kid up from school and make sure he hasn’t burned the whole thing down in the meantime, “…unavailable.”

Did lil Donnie ever ask Splinter if he could go to school with April? If he did, i think Splints would punt by saying Donnie was too smart/advanced to go to school.

Oh absolutely. Donnie being a massive nerd wants nothing more than to get a proper education, after he meets April that want just increases. April brings her homework and schoolbooks with her when she visits Donnie so he can at least take a small part in school stuff, but it's not exactly the same

Splinter would definitely try that tactic lol, but it's kinda semi-effective. The ego boost would distract Donnie for a short while, but the thing is that he doesn't just want to go to school to learn more, he wants to go to school for the social aspect of it

Again, Donnie is Lonely. April kinda helps with that, but she spends most of her days either in school or at home, they usually can't hang out for more than a couple of hours per day. So after having befriended April, it arguably makes Donnie's loneliness worse because it makes his isolation from the outside world all the more noticable. So a big reason school is so appealing to Donnie is because he'd get to hang out with other kids his age.

Here's the thing, Donnie isn't naive, even at such a young age. Splinter has made it very clear for his entire life that the two of them will never be able to properly participate in human society. Donnie knows that he can't just enroll in April's school.... but maybe he can sneak in. >:)

I mean, Donnie sneaks into April's school pretty regularly in the show, in the AU I just imagine he'd just start doing that at a much younger age. He's a ninja after all! He can like, I dunno, crawl around in the ceiling and spy on the lectures and stuff? Or, like in the show, he can just disguise himself with a hoodie and people will just ignore his green-ness or something I dunno

Anway hopefully no one discovers him! Lol!

Trenchcoat AU question: Since the brains piloting the fusion are still 8, do they have trouble managing and understanding teenage emotions? I have this mental image of them developing a crush or crushes and just having no idea what to do with that. Class 1A generally likes the fusion persona, but then every once in a while he acts childish and they don't know why. Then Aizawa unfuses them and it's like "this explains so much."

I think it's weird, technically the fusion is 16 and has the brain of a 16 year old but with the lived experience of two 8 year olds, so they probably do end up being immature sometimes but also there's like a year-ish between them fusing and attending ua so I feel like in that time, they've been socialized as a teen a bit more and it's not as obvious to class A that there's two 8 year olds behind the wheel.

I feel like it would affect them more coming out of the fusion and being 8 again, because now they've experienced life as a teen and some of that maturity bleeds through. They can say "fuck" now, they know what algebra is, they've read classic literature, there's no going back

in light of recent canon academic conversations, riz adaine gorgug study sessions have never been more real to me. gorgug helps riz + adaine get out of their own heads when they’re overworking themselves, riz + adaine help gorgug with alternative studying methods because he learns best through visuals + experience. fabian’s there occasionally when he has a particularly difficult assignment/test but he makes them all swear never to speak of it in order to protect his “image.” kristen has shown up exactly twice: once for advice on a group project that was two months overdue & once to just lay on the floor and relax for an hour before leaving. fig didn’t know the study sessions were happening until sophomore year & now keeps getting monthly bans because every time she shows up she ends up accidentally distracting riz + adaine. also, sometimes after/in the middle of really long study sessions riz adaine & gorgug go to basrar’s together to unwind but fabian kristen & fig Are Not Invited (they do still text to ask if anyone wants something brought back from basrar’s. they’re not heartless, after all).
