[IC] BNH Academia: Quirk-y Fates { Alternate & Angel }

[AngelBites15]

Her vision was initially blurry, by the time she had attempted to open her eyes. Having to see bright light, the female student lightly groaned, as she tried to get up, but pain came shooting through her right shoulder, and Nensu cried out in response. She then remembered the attack from the night before, up to the point where she passed out from the pain. All she could do was lean on her left arm, shortly before surprise hit her, after seeing Midoriya by her side. It took her a moment to process what had just happened, but the Hero Killer managed a great deal of damage to him, as well.
She managed to see the phone in his hand, and someone he seemed to be video chatting with. The voice was familiar, and judging by the shape of the person, she came to assume that it was Hiems. In response, she gave a wave with her left hand, and a weak smile.
“Dizzy, at the moment. I can’t feel a whole lot in my arm, either. What about you?”
Nensu was worried about him, especially after witnessing the amount of pain and violence that she and her classmates had to endure that night.

[AlternateMan]

Midoriya cautiously placed his hand on Nensu’s shoulder, making sure it wasn’t the treated one. He tried to keep her in bed, lied down, but it was a bit too late to push her down when she yelped in pain pulling her torso up. Midoriya winced in sympathy. The green haired boy looked down at himself. He managed to dodge most of the attacks, except the major cut on his back and a few scratches on his limbs. His back ached weakly time to time, but it was nothing compared to what she got.
“I’m doing fine, I guess. I...if you need anything just tell me, I’ll get it for you.”
He answered.

Meanwhile, an awkward silence came from Midoriya’s phone as Hiems silently watched them talk. Whether it was envy or ‘I also have an interesting idea of ‘okay’ here’, he didn’t know- maybe it was just for the two little lovebirds to enjoy their talk. Yes, lovebirds. Somehow he got the feeling of it. Probably.

“Good to see you’re up.”
Another head peeked over at Nensu’s bed. This time it was a hair identical to Nensu’s- Shoto, another one of the Todoroki’s, checked on his sister.

[AngelBites15]

The pain that went shooting up her entire body, made Nensu tremble on the spot, but then, after feeling Midoriya's hand upon her shoulder, she stopped what she was doing, and just leaned on her healthy left arm, so she was laying on her left side upon the bed. Having to look him over, the female teen noticed the scratches upon his arms, as well as the slight arch in his back. The memory of him getting attacked by Stain's katana replayed in her mind, and all Nensu could display was concern, and his answer brought that feeling a bit more. He shouldn't be moving around, if he is also in pain, but then, he was only trying to help...like those many other times previously.
"Thanks, Midoriya". 'Poor Miss Midnight might get in trouble for this'.
She said, and thought, shortly before her brother came into view.
"Shoto...how are you doing?"
As much as the female Todoroki wanted to sit up a bit more, she was currently on a leash, thanks to her injury.

In the other room, where Hiems was recovering, the door opened, and Momo poked her head in rather cautiously. She wasn't in her Hero costume right now, but in her more casual clothing.

[AlternateMan]

Shoto took a seat across Midoriya and fixed his gaze at Nensu. His gaze was just as sharp as usual-only a bit loosened with concern after such set of events.
“I’m doing fine. My arm’s fine, thankfully. But Iida...”
The teen was sitting on his hospital bed with a cast supporting his left arm. He raised it, with a rather not grim look on his face. He wasn’t depressed of the fail of his singlehanded revenge. He was instead enlightened, with the sacrifice of his friends.
“The doctor says I’ve got an injury on my nerves. It won’t be of a serious problem, and it can be easily healed by a transplant. But I’m thinking of keeping it, as a reminder of my mistakes. Only after I become a true hero will I deal with it.”
Midoriya could show a bright smile at the change of Iida’s spirit. He wasn’t the person hungering for revenge that he was anymore.
“It seems like I have bad relationships with hands..”
Shoto muttered as he looked at the hands.

Hiems eyed for the door.
“I have a guest. See ya.”
He said and hung up the call. With a careless toss, his phone landed on the hospital bed. The boy then gestured Yaoyorozu to come in.

[AngelBites15]

Nensu watched her brother, who had managed to sit across from her, where she could see the bandage upon her sibling's arm. It was the area where the Hero Killer had managed to stick a blade, before giving her one that was nearly fatal. However, as much as she didn't want to go out dying, but she had to save her friends from getting killed by a professional. At the same time, the female student felt that she needed to step in, and give them enough time to end the fight. The thought made her look at Iida, who was sitting on the hospital bed that was ahead of her own. She was initially concerned for her fellow classmate, but then, his words eventually made her smile proudly, although she kept it small. Shoto's comment on the sideline made her chuckle.
"We're proud of you, Iida-san. Your brother would be proud".
She said, having to give the blue-haired teen a soft, kind smile.

Momo looked at the wrapped-up Hiems on the hospital before quietly and carefully closing the door behind her.
"I heard you got into something ugly, last night".
She said, having to wrap herself in her arms, while looking down on the ground.

[AlternateMan]

"...thanks."
Iida smiled back at Nensu. Just when the mood was getting brighter, the room's door opened and a man with a dog head walked in. The sudden entrance caught the boy's attention, putting them into an awkward silence.
"I hope you're doing fine?" bark.
The man said, breaking it. Midoriya looked at him dumbfounded. Who could he possibly be?
"I'm the head of the police department at Hosu City, here to talk about the.. little incident that happened last night." bark.
The head of the police, here to talk about the Stain incident. This was going just fine. 'Since Hero Killer was a big news around the nation, it must've brought the attention of the police department too.' Midoriya thought. He hoped it would be a good news for them.

Hiems gestured Yaoyorozu to take a seat at the stool next to the hospital bed. 'Is that something she has to be worried that much about?' He thought, and looked down at himself. '...pretty much.' Hiems looked around the room he was stuck in. There has been no visitors, except the doctor and nurses. His family wasn't even in Japan. The hero he stuck with was to visit, but later that day. So basically it made her the first visitor. (The other four didn't count as they were just next door.)
"Come on, take a seat."
He said.

[AngelBites15]

Just before Nensu could smile any more, the sound of someone entering their hospital room, made her grin fade. There, entered a person, with what seemed to be a head of the dog. Initially, she could barely comprehend that what she was seeing was real. Maybe she hit her head a little too hard? She just didn't know exactly whether if it was real or not. Nearly confused, she turned her head to look at Midoriya, but he seemed to be quite dumfounded too.
'Perhaps...it wasn't all in my head?'
She internally thought, before closing her eyes momentarily, and opening them back, still seeing the "dog head" before her. The police had managed to gain intel on what happened the night before, and Nensu could only believe that they were just doing the right thing; to make sure Stain didn't complete his fanatic mission.

Just by hearing him, Momo strided to his side, towards the stool that was sitting right next to his bed. She looked to see him, covered in all of the bandages, by the time she sat down. What in the world did he do, last night?
"What happened? I mean, how do you find your teacher? I mean..",
The raven-haired girl asked, nearly fidgeting with her fingers, in her lap.

[AlternateMan]

Midoriya was hoping for a good news from the beginning to the end. But sadly this was not the case.
"I'm here to discuss of the matter of your struggle last night." Bark.
Midoriya nodded. The tone of the policeman wasn't so bright. Judging by it it had to be a bad news than a good one. Then it came to his mind: they weren't professional heroes yet. Wandering off to a dark alley without the heroes' supervision was unacceptable, even if they stopped Stain in the process. That was the one mistake he made, going off so far in a hurry.
"Since you have, no matter what, escaped the supervision of your heroes in the process, I have to say that we have only two choices to offer. You'll either have to give up the work you've done, leaving it to Endeavor's work, and keep the fact that you've stridden on your own hidden, or make it known of your work and risk being punished for it."
The man bowed down, surprising the students in the room- it was very unlikely of someone in such a position to show a respectful, or overly respectful, stance against a group of misfits.
"I apologize for having to force you to make such choices, as a member of the society."
He said.

Hiems raised his hand to silence her up.
"I'll make it simple for you. We ran into a group of villains that's been terrorizing the locals for a while, fought with them, and I lost. Simple as that."
He said. What he felt bad for wasn't losing though- it was the fact that they had to see the villains escape before their eyes. He was beaten up good, and the heroes had to retreat after retrieving him from the rubble of concrete he was sitting in. It was the first time he jumped into real time hero job, and he failed. Good luck with that.

[AngelBites15]

Nensu was too hoping to hear the good news, but none came, about the incident. The Hero-Killer was caught, but then, they were being told that all of their hard work had to be tossed onto her own father. Disbelief and discontent slowly began to appear on her face.
“What? Why him?!”
She asked, almost demanding, as she attempted to sit up, once more. Her hatred for Endeavor was becoming quite evident. If anything, Nensu would much prefer to pass the reward onto another Pro-Hero, besides the Second-Best Hero.

Momo silenced herself quickly, as soon as she took notice of Hiems’ gesture; at the same time, she stopped fidgeting around with her fingers; her face still looking to the side, almost avoiding eye-contact.
“I can imagine that he or she was probably worse than the Hero-Killer?”
She pointed out in a soft voice, before taking the chance to glance at him.

[AlternateMan]

Even the policeman seemed surprised by Nensu's sudden burst of anger. It was obvious for Midoriya- the man she'd been holding a grudge on, and for a good reason, just had to be the only one available. Still, he had to hold on to her so that she wouldn't stumble off the hospital bed when she tried to sit up.
"Calm down, you're not healed enough to move like that!"
He said.
"From the wounds the hero killer got, from all available heroes we could only say that Endeavor was the only one possible to inflict those wounds to him. I apologize for what we have put you into once again."
Midoriya turned to the man. To him it was the only reasonable choice-but to Nensu it was worse than having none. But if they chose to make it theirs...
"What if we make it known that we did it?"
Shoto asked.
"...you'd be honored, but also be punished for the wrongdoings you've done in the process. You may not be able to get a hero license in result."
A conflicting choice. Let the world know of their deeds, but never be a pro hero. Or let Endeavor have it, so they could become an official hero in the future.
"..."

"Hero Killer? Oh, yeah, right. That guy."
Hiems tried to scratch his chin, and realized he couldn't reach that angle. Much sorrow. Then he realized Yaoyorozu was being more careful than usual, as if she got herself into trouble for letting him get beaten up. '...is that even valid?' He thought.
"And don't be so worried about that, I'll still be able to take the final exam and everything."
He said.
"...Since I've been sleeping a whole lot of time, that's what Recovery Girl told me at least."

[AngelBites15]

Nensu’s eyes were upon the policeman, even while she felt and heard Midoriya hold her back. She winced a few times at the pain, as she tried to sit up, but then, she finally relented to stay where she was: Upon her side, leaning on her left arm. If she was to give anything, it wasn’t to be given to her father. The old man nearly had her green-haired companion killed, and for all of his cruel deeds, she doubted that all of them would be redeemed. What kind of gratitude was she asking from him? None. However, her dream in being able to help people was at stake, at this very moment. For that though, she finally exhaled, and started to settle down.
“I’m sorry. He can have it”
There was a slight crack in her voice, as she remembered on what Loma said, that they were very much alike, in terms of their anger towards Endeavor.

Yaoyorozu looked upon Hiems, as she listened to him speak. Right after he finished, however, she quickly stood up, in order to stand over him. Leaning over, she quickly gave a light kiss to his cheek.
“That’s all I wanted to know”.

[AlternateMan]

After apologizing several more times, the policeman left them by themselves in an awkward silence. Shoto and Iida traded looks and slowly walked out too. They needed some fresh air-that's what Midoriya guessed. He looked at Nensu. 'This isn't good at all.' He told himself. 'We got ourselves into trouble, we got no credit for catching the hero killer, everyone's in a gloomy mood...' He went back to his usual mumbling habit once again, before he broke out of it realizing he was leaving Nensu alone.
"Oh, I'm sorry..."
He said.
"..this really is a bad day for us, isn't it?"

Through the thick layer of bandages, Hiems visibly lit up to a light shade of red as Yaoyorozu leaned closer, and kissed him lightly on the cheek. His brain went silent, and his eyes stared pointlessly into nothing. After spending nearly a minute in the state, he slowly turned back to Momo.
"...what just happened?"

[AngelBites15]

Nensu was looking down, by the time she and Midoriya were left alone in the room. She honestly didn’t know what to think, but then, in the end, they helped take down somebody who terrorized society for countless nights. And yet, they were never going to be mentioned for this good, seemingly-impossible deed. It was dangerous, and they didn’t have the experience to come face-to-face, in a completely different scenario that was very much real, in contrast to a training session. They weren’t entirely ready yet, but then, more dangers may come, and they needed to be prepared. Nensu was so caught up in these thoughts, she didn’t even hear Midoriya’s verbal mumbling.
“It’s okay. We just had a long night”
She said, looking to the side, thinking about the entire incident all over again.
“We have to be ready next time. After the exam, I know we will”
The female student continued, before looking back to Midoriya.
“I think I have already offered, and yet, it never happened. Once we recover, what do you say on training together?”
She asked, a determined smile appearing upon her face.

Momo pulled away, once she laid that particular sign of affection upon the other male student. She shyly smiled at him, having to create a light blush of her own.
“Nothing. I’m just...glad”.

[AlternateMan]

"Training? Absolutely!"
Midoriya's eyes sparked with excitement as he remembered the girl's offer. Besides, he had more than his old, glass cannon self to show her. During the experience with All Might's teacher, he learned to control One for All. He learned how quirks were normally to be used. Full Cowl was in his hands. It wasn't as much difference in fight, but it was a huge progress to him. Midoriya unconsciously pushed closer to Nensu.
"We'll get to do so much more working together! It's gonna be a long way, surely, but it'll be awesome!"
Midoriya found himself only an inch away from Nensu's face. Midoriya backed away, cupping his blushing face in his hands as he looked away.
"I...I'm sorry....?"
He whimpered.

Hiems shook the blush away as a cool breeze escaped his nostrils. He shrugged at Momo's statement. It was far from a good news out of a flood of bad ones. To him, at least. And now that she made clear of her feelings, he had no escape from putting a handful of his sleep schedule into getting to know her. And hopefully date one of the smartest kids in the class. Was that a good thing or a bad thing?
"Hi glad, I'm Hiems."
He answered, recovering his usual empty stare from a surprised stare he had from the kiss.
"And now that I know how you... we? We. We feel about each other, would you mind using the door next time you pay my home a visit?"

[AngelBites15]

Judging by his reaction, Nensu could already pinpoint that his internship may have, perhaps, taught him a thing or two. He was more eager this time, in contrast to their last encounter, when she had offered the same thing. At the same time, he displayed a whole new level of his Quirk, having to move a lot faster than he did, previously. His attitude made her giggle and genuinely smile, probably for the first time in a while, since that night. For some reason, seeing him made her happy, genuinely. By the time, he got closer, however, a light blush appeared on her face, as well.
“O-Oh! It’s okay, Midoriya. I didn’t really mind”.
She said, and despite the fact that she too was blushing, she was reassuring him with a soft smile, that he didn’t need to feel ashamed. Was Midnight correct about the two of them? Was there something that sparked?

Momo was confused at first, but then his statement made her bashfully smile.
“Y-yeah. I can do that”
She answered, before looking to the side again.

[AlternateMan]

Midoriya fidgetted his fingers. Even thoufh Nensu said she didn't mind, it wasn't the only thing that kept him so hesitant and shy about it. Evidently, he has a crush on her- and it was the one big fact that made him even more awkward with her.
"Sorry, I... I think I have a crush on you."
Midoriya scrambled to cover his mouth. Did he just say that out loud? That was definitely not what he intended to do. He balled up next to the bed, feeling the great urge to shrink down and hide away from Nensu's view. This was just too embarrassing for him to withstand.
"Please tell me you didn't hear that..."
A murmur escaped from under his arms.

Hiems stared forward while Momo stared to the side. After her answer, Hiems did not say anything. He still needed to process the hectic events of yesterday and today. Mostly today. Getting a confession while stuck on bed was a peculiar thing after all.

[AngelBites15]

Nensu was patient with Midoriya; even if the situation was awkward, she could understand his hesitation. However, she didn't register on what the cause of it, was. She watched him for a moment, before taking occasional glances to the side. The female student wasn't exactly prepared on what came next, and the mere mention of it, made her look at his embarrassed self across from her. She gave it one last shot to sit up and, with the help of her left arm to push herself up, along with a grunt of effort, she finally pushed herself up into a sitting position, before allowing herself to drape her legs over the side of the bed. For hearing what she had just heard, she looked at Midoriya again, almost confusingly.
"Wha-? I mean, how...?"
She was truly confused, and almost in disbelief. How could Midoriya ever hold such feelings, if her counterpart continues to hurt him? Could she herself hurt him too? As far as Nensu was concerned, she would label herself as 'dangerous'. Hoping to get some answers from these questions, she reached over, and gently put her left hand on his arm, stroking it with her thumb, hoping to give him comfort.

"I think I should leave you alone".
The raven-haired teen suggested, before proceeding to leave the other student alone to his thoughts.

[AlternateMan]

Midoriya flinched when he felt a hand on his arm. A fiery red face gingerly rose to face Nensu. He shook his head left to right, his hair flailing in the air with his head. Once he finally managed to fend away a portion of his blush, Midoriya took a deep breath. Now that she knew there was nothing to hide about. With determination, he opened his mouth again.
"...I know how you have your conditions and all. Loma. But I don't care."
He said.
"It's not been long since we got to know each other, but I'm sure you yourself are a nice person."
He reached for her arm with his free hand. He slowly wrapped his fingers aound it. 'This is it.' He thought. 'This is the moment.' This was, he could be sure, the only right moment.
"...could you close your eyes a bit?"

Hiems hastily turned to catch Momo leave him alone in the room. 'Great.' He grumbled to himself as the door shut close on him. He continued on staring off into nowhere.

[AngelBites15]

Nensu was still thinking about what he said, as she continued to look to the side, until she heard the other teen speak, once more. It wasn’t what she expected to hear from him, considering that she was a bit wary on having to be around Midoriya, so he wouldn’t get hurt. However, she came to remember that she trusted him, as well as for him to be extremely courageous, whenever she might lose control. From that moment, it seemed as though he was prepared for it. As a result, Nensu was grateful.
Feeling something gripping around her arm, the female teen looked to see his hand wrapped around it. Confusion passed on, but then, he asked her...to close her eyes? She didn’t know why, in particular, but did so, out of curiosity. Taking a breath, she closed her color-differing eyes.

[AlternateMan]

Even though he was the one to start this, Midoriya felt a wave of nervousness rush up when Nensu closed her eyes. Millions of doubts filled his thoughts, clouding his mind and beating heart. He gently squeezed her arm. If he sat there thinking to himself, it will take all day for them to move on. Thsre was no use hesitating. He moved his hands to her shoulders. 'Here I go.' He thought. Before he could hesitate any longer, Midoriya leaned forward- and kissed Nensu on the lips.
