[inheritance]

Maybe he's just making sure he knows what you're capable of?

[He's trying to be optimistic here!]

OK do you want me to bring them to you now?

[messianic]

That could be it. [Narrator voice: That was Not It.]

But I can come to you if it's easier. You're the one doing me a big favor, after all.

[inheritance]

If you're sure! I'm in Flavo, house X! See you soon, Arisato-kun!

[messianic]

[And off he goes...!! It'll take him a bit of time to trek from Bluo to Flavo, but when he gets there...!!

KNOCK KNOCK.]

[inheritance]

[Izuku pulls the door open, greeting him with a smile.]

Arisato-kun! Come on in, I have the stuff you wanted.

[messianic]

Good to see you again, Midoriya-kun.

[And he bows his head as he steps in.]

Thank you... this is a huge help, and I really appreciate it.

[inheritance]

It's no problem! I know the supplies we can use are pretty limited...

[He leads Minato over to the room that he's claimed. It's mostly barren, except for the pile of cushions and blankets that he's spread out in one corner to serve as a makeshift bed.

He grabs an empty notebook and pen from his bag before offering them to Minato.] Here you go!

[messianic]

[Supplies are pretty limited, so...]

Thank you... I'll return it as soon as I can, and I'll try to avoid using too much of it.

[inheritance]

[Izuku just smiles in response.] You can keep a few extra pages if you want. I don't mind! Just in case you need to write another report.

I have a few more notebooks in my backpack--somehow it ended up here, too. Good thing it did, or I wouldn't have anything to really write with... ah, did you find anything of yours here, too?

[messianic]

I appreciate it a lot.

[Very useful...!!

That question, though...]

Ah, I guess... my sword did? [...Yeah. A normal teenage thing to have.]

[inheritance]

A sword? [Izuku looks up with interest. Sounds perfectly normal to him.]

I'm guessing that's what you normally fight with--is Kyrie-san helping you work on your technique?

[messianic]

... Probably.

[Maybe?]

He hasn't actually agreed to help me yet, but if I prove myself I think he will. So I'll keep trying until he's willing to help me out.

I still have a lot to learn, after all.

[inheritance]

I feel the same way...but that's why we signed up for this!

[Tiny fist pump.]

Let's do our best to improve, Arisato-kun!

[messianic]

[Aw..... that's endearing.]

You got it, Midoriya-kun. Maybe we should keep each other posted on our training and how it's going, too. I'd like to hear how yours ends up being too.

[inheritance]

[A pause, before Izuku face brightens with a smile.]

I'd like that, too! Besides, maybe we could practice together... um, I know Ichinose-sensei's already assigned a lot of people, but the more we go over what we're learning, the faster we should pick it up, right?

[messianic]

I think so, yeah. I'd like that a lot.

[He won't stand a chance against Izuku, but it doesn't matter; they can still learn a lot from each other.]

... Ichinose-sensei? [HOLD ON.] Does that mean he's the one teaching you?

[inheritance]

[Izuku blinks in surprise.]

Y-yeah, he ended up assigning himself to me, I guess. [Trying, and failing, to not look pleased, especially when he remembers what he'd said in that message.] Why?

[messianic]

I was just wondering.

[Minato nods thoughtfully, and honestly--]

He must think pretty highly of your skills then--that's pretty impressive, Midoriya-kun.

[inheritance]

Eh? [Now Izuku looks just a bit confused.]

Why do you say that? He's the one organizing this so it makes sense that he'd have a student.

[messianic]

[... Izuku...]

I don't think he'd take on a student that he didn't respect. That's just...the sense I get from talking to Ichinose-san a few times. That's all.

[inheritance]

[Slowly, Izuku turns a little pink and ducks his head.]

Ah, he did mention he thinks he can help me get stronger. To be honest, I was surprised, because I thought he was just taking a second look at me when one of my friends talked me up.

[messianic]

[Izuku..... you're so humble.]

Well, I'm glad that he'll be able to help you get stronger.

Let's help each other too, okay? I'm sure we both have something to offer to learn from.

[inheritance]

Definitely! [At that, Izuku regains his usual enthusiasm.]

Is there anything you wanted to work on in particular?

[messianic]

[Hmm...]

Honestly, I'm only okay at combat in general... I need more practice.

[inheritance]

Practice will help a lot! [He tilts his head suddenly.]

So Kyrie-san is your teacher... do you have a sparring partner?
