CHAPTER START---
---10 PM...
Skulking through the 1A Dorms a few minutes after curfew, Jiro looks around anxiously through the hallways before exiting her room.
She was wearing her usual 'Deep Dope' oversized top and a pair of matching shorts, phone gripped tightly in hand.
Taking a deep breath she tries to play it cool, as if she just got up to go get some water from downstairs, atleast that's the plan if anyone bumps into her.
But that's unlikely. This being the Hero Course means everyone trains from sunrise to sundown, and hardly any people are walking about at night.
Too exhausted from the constant training and studying, and had she not taken a nap after their large study session she would have been sound asleep as well.
Walking down the hallway she passes by Momo's room, and considers a possibility.
'If I go to chat with Horizon and Momo is there things could get awkward. I mean we already decided how to deal with...ugh but I really don't want to deal with any weird situations tonight.
But I mean I'm just going to talk, nothing is gonna happen, I think. I hope. I hope? Do I? Well, a little bit happening won't hurt, right?'
She smacks herself on the forehead, then winces a bit and rubs it.
'I'm overthinking things, but just to be sure I'm not interrupting them...'
She raises one of her Earphone Jacks and touches the wall in front of Momo's room.
Then relaxes as she hears her best friend sound asleep.
'I really need to stop doing that,' she reminds herself while retracting it. 'But I kind of like it when he teases me...atleast it makes him talk to me more. Nope, I need to cut out that habit.'
Walking to the end of the hallway she sees the boys' side across from her, then makes a sharp turn toward the elevator.
'It's only one floor up, and with my luck, someone is out getting a snack downstairs,' she thinks, walking to the side of the elevator to the stairwell that wraps around it.
Feeling more and more anxious with every step, she arrives on the fifth floor, the top floor of the 1A Dorms.
And walks toward its only resident.
Arriving at his door she can't help but roll her eyes at it. White and blue with his logo boldly carved into it.
'He really can't help himself huh,' she looks down the hallway, where usually she'd see three more doors for the other rooms.
But instead, it's just a plain wall.
'They really did make his room the entire Boys' Side top floor...what does he even need all that space for. Well, I guess I'm about to find out,' she takes a deep breath and raises her hand to gently knock.
Only for the door to open, and a pair of yellow and black eyes stare back at her.
They both freeze for a moment, then Mina is the first to break the awkward tension.
"Heya Kyoka, what brings you here?" She puts on her best smile to try and snap Jiro out of her frozen state.
"Uh, I, um---"
Mina leans forward, getting a bit closer to Jiro, "Here for a little one-on-one time with your not-so-secret crush huh, you being a bad rocker girl?"
"What! No!" Jiro yells, no longer trying to be stealthy, face fully red at the thought. "I was just, um, just here to talk about...things."
Mina gives her a mischievous smile, and Jiro just knows she's never going to let her forget this. "Really, talking, well if you say so."
"I'm serious."
"uh-huh, just be sure to tell me everything tomorrow," Mina steps out of the room, leaving Horizon's door open behind her. "Looks like Horizon gets his hands on all the ladies tonight," she says scandalously, just to see Jiro blush and try to cover her face.
Mina's laughter echoes through the hallway, "Honestly you're way too fun to tease, I wasn't here for that, I like sweet wholesome guys. Plus you two already have...whatever you have with him."
Jiro slowly drops her hands, "really? But then why were you here?"
Mina shrugs, "well I guess that's something you can talk to him about, all the science kind of went over my head anyway," she leans forward and pinches Jiro's cheek. "If you keep blushing like this you'll get to do more than talking tonight, you're just too adorable sometimes."
"That's not, uh."
"Good luck," Mina says as she begins walking away. "And keep it safe."
"It's not like that I swear!" Jiro yells, but Mina just waves and rounds the corner, heading back to her own room.
As she hears the elevator open, Jiro turns around, now looking into Horizon's room.
"Well, atleast she won't tell anyone...if only so she can tease me about this more, just my luck."
Assuming he must have heard and likely sensed her by now, however that works, she enters and closes the door behind her.
And she can't help but observe how neat everything was in his room. As she expects from their resident doctor atleast.
To the far end of the room was his large bed, where just last night she listened in on him and her best friend as they---
'Focus Jiro,' she snaps herself out of her daze.
Only a few feet away, standing in front of a hologram with a few tabs of notes and what looks like chemical structures floating about, Horizon is adding more and more information to it.
'Mina did say the science of it went over her head...' Jiro recalls.
"Had fun sneaking about the hallways?" Horizon asks. "Took you long enough to get here..."
"You knew I was coming?"
"I could sense you, and by the way, Momo just sends me a text and I warp her into my room, for future notice when we do this again."
"You could have done that at any point, why didn't you?" Jiro was clearly annoyed by his antics.
"More fun this way, could have sworn you were having a panic attack deciding whether to take the elevator."
"It wasn't that bad," she grumbles and walks up to him, looking at the work he's doing.
"It was," he looks to the side, down at the petite girl, "but hey, you made it, and I'm happy to have you."
"Well, atleast you find it funny."
"Adorable really. And I noticed you couldn't help but be a little perv one last time."
"It's really not like that," Jiro says. "It's just...kind of a habit now. Ever since joining UA, you and the teachers say we should use our Quirks any chance we get, well mine lets me do things like that. So its good practice...and I guess I got a bit carried away with it."
"I understand the feeling, better than most actually."
"Really, you do? And mind if I take a seat?" She gestures to the couch at his back.
"Go ahead, and yeah, I do understand it," he continues his work. "My Quirk allows me to sense things within my range, I can pick and choose what I sense depending on how much focus and energy I want to use.
I could decide to ignore, let's say, your clothes, and get a map of what you look like naked. I can peer through walls entirely without limit and know what everyone is doing. I can see behind the masks of the Top Pro Heroes, and there isn't anything in the world they could do about it.
So yes, I understand the temptation to use your Quirk to violate the privacy of others, but honestly, its never bothered me."
"Right, because of course mister perfect never gets tempted to do bad things," Jiro rolls her eyes. "Do you really expect me to believe that?"
"Why would I care about others in such a way, they aren't worth my attention. Besides, it ruins the fun part."
"What fun part?"
"Well, half the fun of women is making them want you, if you skip to the end it's rather boring."
"You expect me to believe you enjoy that?"
Horizon looks over his shoulder at her, then goes back to finishing his notes, "asks the girl who has a massive and obvious crush on me, snuck though the halls after curfew to visit me in my dorms, and is now sitting patiently for me to finish these notes and give her my undivided romantic attention...really?"
"Tch, that doesn't prove anything," Jiro says. "Besides, seems like you've had a lot of visitors lately."
"Mina?"
"Mhm."
"She's cute, and has a nice ass, but do you really think I'd put my dick in a potential acid puddle...no thanks."
"Well, she said she wasn't here for that kind of thing...so why was she here?"
"I'll show you," he saves his work and then taps a few buttons on the watch device Mei made for him.
Jiro moves over so he can sit beside her, and the hologram begins to change.
Displaying what appear to be scans and results from hundreds of people, hundreds of sick people that need help.
Then each file ends with the same word, 'Terminally ill'.
"Your patients?" Jiro asks.
"No, these are people from around the world that I just can't get to, but I can fix. Too bad they'll all long die before I could ever get the chance to go there."
"Oh no...Mina?"
"Is fine," he reassures her. "A while ago I won a bet, and I asked that she let me run some tests on her. She thought I was going to do some perverted nonsense apparently."
"We all thought that, she told the girls."
"And you're still here, how odd. But no I wanted to examine her Quirk. Contrary to what you may see in the news and on TV, Quirks like hers and Bakugo's are rare. Full body quirks that entirely change a body system while adding nothing but genetic benefits to the user.
But I've already studied some similar to Bakugo's so I don't need him...but Shoji is a bit hesitant to be 'treated like a lab rat', as he puts it. Something about his past...I wasn't really listening to the sob story."
"Jeez, even when you try to be sweet you're still a jerk."
"That's my charm babe, but really now, medicine has become a lot more difficult since the advent of Quirks.
Operating on people is much harder as the human form can vary so much now, it's like having to be a doctor, a vet, and a dozen other things all in one. That's also why creating universal medication is all but impossible too, and that's something I plan to solve."
"You want to make medicine?"
"Just think about it, if I study enough people firsthand, I could make a cure for dozens of things. One shot or one pill or whatever, and bye-bye terminal illness, forever."
"Wow..." Jiro's eyes widen in amazement, never expecting to know this side of him.
"As I said, this Pro Hero thing is a stepping stone, and now that the entire world knows me, they trust me, I can get information that would have never been given freely before. I can fix this world, one cure at a time.
For each of the people I save by fighting some idiot villain, I'll save tens of millions more by completing these cures. No cape, no tights, just results, as it should be. And it'll all be completely free."
"Completely free?" Jiro was even more surprised. "Since when were you altruistic?"
"Well, maybe being around all you heroes is rubbing off on me, but recently I've had a change of heart," he lied, so blatantly and boldly she couldn't help but believe it.
Leaving her none the wise to how far he'd go to have this entire world eating out of his palm.
"So it really was just for research," Jiro says as she scoots a bit closer to him, and he casually drapes his arm around her.
"Well, Mina is cute."
"You like pink?"
"She makes it work, but I usually mostly just like Quirky people. People that would be indistinguishable from regular boring obsolete humans...but then they just have that one odd thing about them. Like you, just an incredibly cute girl...with Earphone Jacks for earlobes."
Jiro blushes up a storm as the holograms close up, and the room dims slightly. "You really like them?"
"I think they look good on you."
"And I think I might look good on you," Jiro says his line, which catches him off guard.
"---oh, you heard me say that yesterday, of course."
She giggles a bit, "sorry I couldn't help it."
"Well, atleast you're not wrong..."
Feeling he heart pounding in her chest, and her face heating up, Jiro quickly blurts out, "can we take it slow! I mean...I'm just not ready for, you know."
There is a moment before Horizon speaks where she's worried he won't like what she said, until, he laughs, and she feels her heart sink, fearing the worse.
But as always, he never misses a chance to tease her.
"Wooowwww, I just wanted to talk and you're already thinking about such horny things, honestly Jiro you're such a pervert."
"Wh---HEY!"
