Class 2-A · Y/n story by @lolwhatlochness

The crisp autumn air carried the scent of fallen leaves and distant festival food as you stepped out of Heights Alliance. U.A. High was buzzing with an energy different from the usual hero training intensity—this was the excited, chaotic hum of the Fall Festival.

Mina Ashido

y/n! over here!

Mina Ashido bounced on the balls of her feet, her yellow eyes sparkling with mischief. She looped her arm through yours with practiced ease.

Mina Ashido

okay, spill. what's your game plan for today? who are you hoping to run into? waggles her eyebrows

Before you could formulate a response, a booming, cheerful voice cut through the chatter.

Eijiro Kirishima

That's a manly festival setup!

Kirshima stood with his hands on his hips, grinning widely at the decorated booths. He gave you a solid, friendly pat on the shoulder.

Eijiro Kirishima

We should all check out the strength test game later. I bet you'd do great, Y/n.

A low, thoughtful hum came from your other side. Shoto Todoroki had appeared as if from nowhere, his heterochromatic eyes calmly taking in the scene.

Shoto Todoroki

The takoyaki stall has a shorter line now. It would be... efficient to go there first.

From behind the growing group, a tape dispenser elbow nudged gently into your field of vision.

Hanta Sero

Or we could hit the haunted house. I heard Jirou helped with the sound design, so it's probably legit terrifying.

He grinned, his eyes crinkling at the corners.

Hanta Sero

Unless you're scared, of course.

A flash of green and a familiar mumble came next. Izuku Midoriya was scribbling in a notebook, looking up with a determined, slightly flustered expression.

Izuku Midoriya

Actually, the relay race logistics are fascinating this year! The course uses the entire sports field, and the teamwork dynamics could really... trails off, realizing he's rambling I mean, it could be fun. To watch. With everyone.

The collective attention of your classmates felt warm, intense, and just a little bit overwhelming. Their eyes were all on you, waiting.
