She knew something was wrong when a general student replaced Midoriya. While it seemed logical to replace him, when that student used his quirk on her and Aizawa didn’t do anything, that was when she knew something was truly wrong. A teacher had decided that using a quirk on another person without permission was fine.
She knew she had to do something, so she did what she was told: follow the rules and report the teacher.
It took her some time to navigate the principal's office. UA still resembled a giant maze. When she went to knock on the door, it swung open on its own. She looked around to see if she could spot any cameras, but she zoned out and was startled when the principal's voice addressed her.
"Good afternoon, Yaoyorozu. Call me Nedzu," the principal said.
She was so proud of herself for schooling her expression quickly. She knew the principal was a quirked animal, but he was so small and fluffy and... No, don’t get distracted, Momo. She was startled again when Nedzu chuckled and asked, “How may I help you?”
Yaoyorozu cleared her throat, her voice steady. "I would like to ask you what would happen if someone used a quirk on another person without permission when they are not in the heroics class."
"Using a quirk on another person would be punishable, and the student will be suspended immediately," Nedzu replied.
"Shinshou used his quirk on me when I was just asking him to move so that my friends could sit," Yaoyorozu explained, her voice gaining a sharp edge. "He then asked me a personal question that I didn’t want to answer to anyone. Aizawa-sensei saw, but he didn’t do anything. He was taking Shinshou’s side. So, I thought if a teacher wasn’t helping, I would then go to the person who has a higher position than Sensei.”
"Now, that is a problem. UA is a hero school, and this would not be tolerated," Nedzu said, his tone turning serious. He pushed a button on his desk and called for Aizawa-sensei.
As Nedzu made the announcement, Yaoyorozu decided to ask him another question, a more important one.
“I know this is not really my place to say,” she began, "but I think Midoriya’s expulsion was wrong. He had a strength quirk, and while I know he can't control it, I also know he did better than some of the students in our class. Was the test rigg..."
Her eyes widened in realization, and she stopped. But she looked at Nedzu, who had an expression she couldn’t decipher.
She didn't know if Aizawa's timing was a blessing or not.
