    “Maybe we’re stuck,” Ochako begins tentatively, “because this isn’t the point we’re supposed to be progressing from.”

    Sero makes a noise, near the back. “What do you mean?”

    Ochako shrugs and gives them a wobbly smile. “I’m not entirely sure,” she confesses. “All I know is that I want to be—well, I want to feel like I’m actually seventeen.”

    More quiet. The things Izuku wants to say pile in his mouth, in the back of his throat, a mix of, That’s right, we’re seventeen, aren’t we? and, It wasn’t supposed to turn out this way.

    Todoroki looks straight into the camera. His eyes are set. “Fame isn’t everything,” he says slowly, roughly. He’s got makeup on for the show, but Izuku can still see the dark circles. “We’re young. We’re tired. We just want—” He sighs. “We just want peace and quiet, for once.”

    Beautifully written. The atmosphere is of a dull, gray, and cold world. It's the aftermath of 'the' war, and even if they did save the world, in the end they are just kids that are too young to be dealing with all of this.
