Chapter Text

"Todoroki? Are you alright?" Midoriya asked worriedly. "I didn't push you too hard before, did I? Oh, no, I'm sorry -"

"It's fine," Todoroki said, perhaps shorter than he intended to. "This is all just unexpected."

"O-oh," Midoriya replied. "Okay. I'll - I'll go." He turned around and went to walk out the gates, but only got halfway before he was waylaid by 1-A's pretty, serious class vice-representative. Former class vice-representative. "Yaoyorozu?"

"You noticed too then?" she asked.

"Huh?"

"Yaoyorozu is right!" another voice cried, and Midoriya jumped as Iida practically materialized out of nowhere at their side. "Torodoki is acting strange! I think we need to talk to him!" The former class representative waved an arm vigorously as he continued, "It is our responsibility as his classmates to make sure he's alright!"

"Todoroki said he was just in shock," Midoriya said uncertainly.

"We're all in shock," Iida said evenly. "All Might is comatose. We've been expelled and it wasn't Aizawa-Sensei. He's acting different."

"I can't believe we're being expelled for jumping in," Yaoyorozu sighed. "I thought that was what being a hero was all about."

Midoriya nodded sadly. "Exactly. I mean - Yaoyorozu - if you hadn't jumped in for Midnight-Sensei…"

"Deku! Iida! Yaoyorozu!"

They turned around; Uraraka was running towards them, waving them down. "I can't believe we were all just expelled! Just like that! Oh, this is terrible…"

"It's going to be alright!" Iida assured her kindly, but she shook her head.

"B-but Iida - I - I went for the Hero Course to support my family!" Uraraka burst out, going pink in the face. "I - now what do we do? There's no way the other schools will take us! We were expelled on live television!" she wailed.

Midoriya's mind started whirring. "If we can't go forwards… but that doesn't make sense, Yaoyorozu…"

"I… did not think of that," Iida admitted. "But I am sure things will get better."

"…and if we were to… but that's illegal… but then again…"

"What are we talking about?" Asui asked, bouncing over. "Uraraka, kero, are you alright?"

"Midoriya, you're muttering again," Yaoyorozu said sharply.

"Huh? Oh! Sorry, Yaoyorozu," Midoriya said sheepishly. "I - uh -"

"W-what is it, Deku?" Uraraka asked with a sniffle.

"I just thought… it's a bad idea, but… Yaoyorozu is right, it doesn't make sense for them to permanently discredit as all, especially not recommendations…"

"Aizawa-Sensei expelled a whole class once," Asui reminded him.

"Yes, but Aizawa-Sensei is very… well… it's not the same as government officials declaring your class void," Midoriya pointed out.

"Midoriya," Iida said cautiously, "What's the bad idea?"

"Well, if we got ourselves a - a rental house or something - we could pack in together -"

"What's shitty Deku going on about now?" Bakugou asked loudly, striding over, voice full of false bravado.

"Kacchan! I just thought - uh - if we got the space - maybe we can still be heroes? Sort of? And - it might be - safer - for some of us?"

"We need a license," Yaoyorozu pointed out. "That's why we go through the program."

"Legally, yes," Midoriya squeaked.

"… Midoriya, that's a terrible idea!" Iida cried.

"Deku, that's a shitty-ass idea, but we're doing it since the officials are a bunch of bastards," Bakugou said flatly.

"Bakugou!"

"Shut up, Glasses! If the bastards won't appreciate us we'll just have to beat them another way!" Bakugou yelled, attracting the attention of half the courtyard as he did so. "Maybe I'm not gonna sit pretty for the cameras, huh?"

"Bakugou has a point," Yaoyorozu said pensively.

"Yaoyorozu!" Iida exclaimed.

"But think, kero," Asui commented. "Izuku is right. We can still be heroes."

"Where is Deku, anyway?" Uraraka asked.

The others blinked at her for a moment, before turning to the blank space where Midoriya had been standing.

"He's talking to Icy Hot, you bunch of idiots," Bakugou growled. "Trust Deku to try to get the whole class to go vigilante."

"What's this about going vigilante?" Sero asked.

Iida groaned.

"Guys," Midoriya groaned, "Please."

"SHUT UP, DEKU!" Bakugou roared, crashing through one door and out the door in pursuit of Ashido, who was giggling (and sparkling) far too much for someone escaping attempted murder.

"Midoriya is right! This is not -" Iida cut himself off as Bakugou bodily kicked the exit door open and sighed, retracting his arm and sitting back down at the bench next to Midoriya.

"This was a bad idea," Midoriya sighed, placing his head on the bench in front of him and closing his eyes.

"Oh, cheer up, Deku," Uraraka said brightly. "It's only 15 rules."

"Uraraka, it's been three hours," Iida said flatly.

"Can I get a snack?" Kaminari asked.

"See?" Todoroki finished. "It's clear that there's a heavy bias in hero society."

"Woah," Kaminari said, gazing at the papers spread across the dining table with wide eyes. "That's crazy."

"Is anyone else disturbed by Torodoki's upbringing?" Ojirou asked, to general mutters of agreement.

"So, uh, we've got coverups, abuse, millions of yen in property damage, and undue removal from the hero scene," Yaoyorozu murmured. "That's a lot of evidence, Tenya."

"I know," Iida replied. "It - give me a moment."

"What a tragic happenstance," Tokoyami commented.

"So," Jiro said blandly, as Tenya ducked into the bathroom, "We agree what this adds up to?"

"It adds up to fucking corrupt bastards," Bakugou snapped.

"S-so," Midoriya piped up, "I - I thought, since Sero and Ashido already made the channel…"

"Hell yeah!" Ashido cried. "We're not letting this go to waste!"

"Is it okay if we use you as our guest presenter, Todoroki?" Sero asked eagerly.

"Yes."

The sound of footsteps alerted them to Iida returning to the room.

"Iida, are you alright? You seemed shaken up, kero," Asui said.

"I'm much better now, thank you, Asui," Iida replied. He took a deep breath. "Alright, Midoriya. We'll go through with your plan. But we're still heroes."

HERO SOCIETY IS CORRUPT! COVERUPS, ABUSE, MISSING PERSONS! NOT CLICKBAIT!

[An overlarge image of Endeavour, All Might, Todoroki, and Aoyama for some unknown reason. Clicking on the thumbnail gives you an overly cheerfuly greeting from Sero and Ashido, ten minutes of Todoroki's very, very detailed analysis, an interruption by means of Midoriya chasing after Kaminari and a flaming toaster, another twelve minutes of analysis, and an overly enthusiastic conclusion. There's also levitating, hand-drawn section cards and a gratuitous quanitity of glitter everywhere.]

"Daa-bee…"

Dabi groaned. "What, Toga?!"

"You hate Endeavour, riiight?" Toga asked, blinking innocently up at the other boy.

"Yes." He looked down at her with a frown. "What's this about?"

"Look!" she shoved a phone in his face. "I knew we were right, ha! Stain was right -  this is why we're not joining Shigaraki - we're not, right? I don't like him, he's a bitch. Stain was muuch nicer, I'd drink his blood any day…"

"Ugh…" Dabi snatched the phone from Toga's fingers, glanced at the image, and stopped short.

"Dabi?"

Dabi's stapled face stretched into a wide, Joker-esque grin.

"Da-bee! What is it? Is it good?" Toga asked breathlessly.

"So…" Dabi mused. "My brother has some sense after all…"

"Huh?"

"Maybe it's worth paying little Shouto a call after all," Dabi smiled.

"Shouto? Can I stab him? He's pretty."

"No."

"Awww."
