- You're... Yaoyorozu, aren't you?
- Yes, Master Almighty.
Momo nodded.
- I've been following what's going on closely and I can tell you that the defence team made the mistake of underestimating their opponent. They thought that since he was alone, they would be able to defeat him. As a consequence, they easily fell for his ploy and--
- YOU DON'T KNOW SHIT!
- Bakugo...
The boy was embarrassed by the Almighty's judgemental tone.
- I'm sorry...
Wow! He apologised!
- I knew he was strong... it's just... it's my bloody temper. I'm impulsive as hell and so far I haven't been able to fight that character trait.
He sighed.
- Well... then Tenyi's mistake was relying too much on his speed. However, many heroes, despite having a much slower movement speed will have reaction speeds faster than his. Izuku is just one of those...
The Almighty nodded.
- I would also like to point out that even without having creative quirks, they were able to change the atmosphere on the floor somewhat. Of course NOW, having seen how Izuku can manoeuvre I can say that it wouldn't hurt him much, but it would force him to make at least one extra jump. That said, get Tenya in the right place and the dash could have been more successful and it would have allowed his partner to get back to the floor in time.
- What can you say about Izuku?
- It's hard for me to judge... at first glance, he didn't make any mistakes... didn't go through the door, made sure his entry point wouldn't be detected... distracted Bakugo knowing his explosive nature and used his mobility and high reaction time to defeat Shadow....
- Izuku? What do you think?
- What was sorely lacking was a partner... Someone to ask to watch the opponents. I also lacked some equipment. But that was more to do with the fact that I was alone, if I had a partner I wouldn't need to think about additional equipment at all.
I looked at Iida thoughtfully.
- I still underestimated Shadow's speed, or rather I didn't think that he might be ready for a spurt.
- Good...
The Almighty looked around at the students.
- ...I have nothing to add. A full debrief from Yaoyorozu, and Midoriya who talked about the importance of teamwork and that without a team he lacked equipment... now let's see the new teams work.
*** A day later. ***
- You all did well yesterday...
Aizawa Shota gave us all a good look.
- Today we have class time... and in this class you are to elect a class head.
Immediately, there was a commotion in the classroom.
- Quiet...
Shota continued to speak quietly, without raising his voice, and everyone immediately fell silent.
- You have to choose a class head before the end of the lesson...
A sleeping bag was pulled out from under the teacher's desk and the teacher climbed into it very smartly.
- Don't bother me for the rest of the lesson, and if you don't choose....
We were given a sleepy look.
- ...I'll assign it myself and you ALL won't like the choice.
Bam...
The sleeping bag collapsed to the floor in dead silence.
- What's up?
I've got your attention.
- Shall we do this the easiest way possible?
- What's that?
Katsuki gave me a hostile look.
- I propose a vote. We've all known each other for a few days, we've observed each other during the quirk test and during basic hero training. So the initial impression of each other made up and if you introduce just one rule, the vote will solve all our problems. And the rule is a ban on voting for yourself.
- And how do we control that?
- We'll just vote openly...
I shrugged my shoulders at Toru's question.
- But... what if we offend someone?
- With what?
I shrugged
- By voting for someone else? That's our right...
- Okay, I'm in favour.
Momo raised her hand and followed by her hands supporting this option of choosing a headman supported all the others.
- Shall we begin?
- By the way. Just in case... I'm recusing myself.
- А?!
It was a synchronised surprised exclamation of about six people.
- Why?
Tenya approached me with a scrutinising gaze.
- It's because I already have a lot to do....
I shrugged.
- ...Research, training, I also wanted to visit the academy's development department, and then there's work.....
I shake my head.
- ...too much to do.
- I'm also recusing myself.
Tsuyu raises her hand to draw attention to herself. Only her announcement didn't cause as much excitement as mine.
- Alright, as the one who recused herself, I'll offer myself as an arbitrator.
- Seconded...
Tenya was the first to raise his hand, followed by the others.
- Good, almost unanimous...
I cast a snide glance at Katsuki.
- So, my vote will be for Momo...
I went to the board and wrote her first and last name and put my last name underneath it.
- Seconded.
Tsuyu's last name was written next to it.
- I nominate Shadow Iida.
It was Kirishima who cast the vote.
- Katsuki Bakugo!
Mina smiled happily after saying that, but the others flinched at such a possibility, I wrote the next names on the board....
A couple of minutes and everyone had voted.
- Well, I guess you can see everything already... Congratulations Momo.
The girl nodded to me and walked dignified to the board.
- I suppose no one will mind if as my deputy I choose Shadow, who came second in the voting?
People shook their heads.
- That's great...
Momo glanced at Tenyu, who stood up and walked over to her and stood just behind her on her right hand.
- Master, we all...
Momo turned to Shota, who opened his eyes and sat on the floor without getting out of his sleeping bag.
- All of us?
- Yes. I'm the Headmaster, my deputy is Tenya.
- Alright, you're free for today....
- А?
But the teacher had already collapsed on the floor and fell asleep.
- Okay...
I stretched and went to my desk and picked up my bag.
- Where are you going?
Tsuyu stood next to me.
- To the development department. Since they let us go today, we should at least see if it's worth sticking around for the equipment... maybe it's better at my place....
- I'll go with you.
- Let's go
Tsuyu grabbed her bag just like me and left the classroom, and a dozen seconds later Momo jumped out of the classroom.
- Izuku, Tsuyu, wait for me!
- М?
Tsuyu and I looked at the girl.
- I have to go to the department too, I have a couple of modifications to make to my costume....
- Waiting.
One word and I slumped against the wall, Tsuyu stood beside me.
- You'd make a good headman...
- Maybe...
- You're responsible...
- Maybe...
- Are you kidding me?
I got a suspicious look.
- Just a little bit.
- Kwa.
And that 'kwa' was everything-- Annoyance. Amusement. Condemnation. Understanding. Resentment. Forgiveness. I turn slightly and look at Tsuyu carefully.
- What?
She's slightly embarrassed by such intense scrutiny.
- Do that again...
It's not often that she does that and every time she succeeds very nicely...''
- А?
- No, not like that...
Momo walked out of the classroom, but after noticing us, she didn't break into our conversation, preferring to stop at some distance.
- You're about...
I nodded.
- Kwa?
I didn't hold back and hugged Tsuyu, pulling her tightly against me. Cute, embarrassed, confused, somewhat awkward and completely defenseless....
- Izuku... that's enough...
I sighed and let go of the girl, who took an embarrassed look aside.
- Momo, can we go now?
- Yes...
Momo was also embarrassed to have witnessed such a scene. However, she wasn't the only one who witnessed it. After all, we were in a common corridor, and our class wasn't the only one let out early today. On the other hand, most of them weren't interested in us.
Sighing, I waved my hand, urging Momo to follow us, and put my arm around Tsuyu's shoulder. I walked towards the development department....
The department was on a different floor, the door was open, but for decency we still knocked before entering. Except no one answered, so I decided to enter at my own risk.
- Hmmm...
I began to walk slowly around the room and examine the equipment.
- Is something wrong?
- No...
I shake my head.
- ...Yes.
Sigh.
- I expected more from Yuei. My equipment might not be as new, but it's definitely better. And there's more of it...
- Mm-hmm...
Tsuyu gave me a cheerful look.
- ...Need I remind you that you printed most of it yourself by buying that 3D printer?
- Who stopped them from doing the same?
I shrugged, noticing the interested face of a girl appearing from behind one of the machines and then disappearing.
- For example, this little CNC machine, it's not optimised for the needs of a workshop like this! It's easier to print the parts on a quality printer and then build a specialised machine. This way you will always be able to make replacement parts, and there are many other advantages ...
I shake my head.
- This option is not without disadvantages, but to me it is much better than something you can buy....
- I totally agree with you!
A girl did pop out from behind the machine though.
