Chapter 46 - A Calm Day

"That our teacher is a weirdo," Izuku said and explained his first meeting with Aizawa. Some of them didn't believe him, but it's understandable as even he would find it hard to believe it had he not experienced it first-hand.

"But then again, he is a pro hero U.A. hired so he shouldn't be that unreasonable,"

Sure enough, the whole expulsion thing was a lie, a logical ruse, as Aizawa called it to help bring the best out of them. A hologram showed the rankings of the class, with Momo taking first place, followed by Todoroki, Bakugou, Izuku, and the last place being Toru who felt immense relief. Even if Momo had told her it was most likely a lie, the threat still felt real.

(A/N: Idk how Momo got 1st place in cannon btw, sure her quirk is flexible, but damn.)

Aizawa soon dismissed everyone but told Izuku to stay. He said goodbye to everyone, some filled with worry while others (Bakugou) snickered, who left to change and went over to Aizawa only to be met with a silent stare.

"You know, Midoriya, I want to expel you," Aizawa said, breaking the silence. Izuku didn't respond and let him continue. "However, you're right. You still have value in your power,

"But, once your value shows signs of dropping, I won't hesitate to expel you,"

Izuku nodded and agreed. Aizawa soon left with his usual fisheye stare and left Izuku alone. 

'Well, if I don't see myself getting stronger, I would drop myself off first,' Izuku thought, not minding Aizawa's displeasure towards him. As long as Aizawa doesn't go out of his way to make his life worse, his threat won't matter. Just the facilities U.A. provides give him more than enough reason to stay.

'Oh right, I still have class,' Izuku heard the bell ringing and left to change, hoping for the rest of the day to be fruitful.

~~~ 

It was not.

Izuku sat through the rest of the day with a massive slog on his shoulders. He couldn't be bothered to learn most of the lessons in U.A.'s curriculum. Other than English, which was his native language, Izuku was sure that he would fail them if he didn't put some effort into it.

At the very least, Izuku is now more familiar with everyone's quirk. Of them all, the one that interested him the most is Momo's. Her ability to create anything out of nothing but her fat is nothing short of a miracle straight out of religious texts.

However, after hearing the prerequisite of creating the objects, Izuku would rather have a more simple and practical quirk like his. 

A close second is Todoroki since the sole fact that two opposite elements exist within a single body means it can merge into something much greater. Yin and yang merging or something like that, Izuku thought.

Izuku went home with Ochaco and a few others since they all rode the train for transport. Funnily enough, Izuku noticed that Bakugou had made friends, or rather many of class 1-A's boys had considered Bakugou as their friend even if he himself didn't.

'When no one is self-conscious of their quirk, Bakugou has lost one of his edges, huh,' Izuku thought. One of the reasons Bakugou's ego grew so large was because everyone fawned over him. Meanwhile, no one bothered to do or care about that in U.A.

Izuku himself was also quite close with the rest of class 1-A though not as much as with the girls. After reaching the train station, Izuku bid them goodbye and went home. 

After he was left walking alone, from his backpack sprouted a little black head, Lin, meowing. He took her in his arms before she finally stopped and purred in return.

"Whatever did you do today?" Izuku asked, clasping her squishy head with his palm and playing with her cheeks. She looked more refreshed now than before.

She slashed his palm in return and meowed. He didn't feel anything from her scratch but eventually relented and let go after she bit him.

Seeing her this energetic, Izuku wonders whether he should bring her there more often. "Do you want to come again tomorrow?"

"Nyaaa!" Izuku didn't exactly know what she said but seeing from her shaking head, safe to say she didn't want to. 

In the end, maybe just like him, Lin isn't fond of frequent social interactions. While it might seem like Izuku was a social butterfly, deep down he was very tired and out of it. It has been a long time since he had to keep up a front for longer periods of time. It was easier in his previous life since the situation forced him to, but with the peaceful and stable life he is in right now, there was little reason to force himself as hard.

If he had to choose from the two extremes, he'd rather stay inside and play around with his women and cat than attend school every day. Though, at least this time, half of the time was used for actual hero and combat learning experience so he isn't that bored.

'But, having a normal-ish school life isn't so bad,' Izuku lamented, thinking it was better to enjoy the normal life he couldn't have before than to complain about it.

Izuku opened the door and saw Inko waiting for him by the sofa. Or at least was, since she is currently sleeping.

He went up to her and found that her sleeping face was gorgeous as ever. As if recognizing his presence (or just the wind from the door), Inko opened her eyes and met him staring at hers. 

"It's not healthy to sleep on the sofa Mom," Izuku said before planting a kiss on her cheek. "I'm taking a bath, do you wanna come with, Mom, Lin?"

At the mention of a bath, Lin ran away to her tower, far from the two who giggled at her antics. Inko felt some sweat on her body and decided to follow Izuku.

"We should do this less often," Izuku said as the two prepared to get in.

"Why?" Inko asked curiously. 

"Or else I might not be able to hold back someday," Izuku said, hiding his privates, and went in, leaving Inko at the bathroom hall whose face had turned pink as she saw a towering shadow.

Inko felt complicated, as per usual, but didn't bother thinking about it any longer and followed in. Her body was covered by a tight white towel and she offered to help wash Izuku's back before going in.

She felt Izuku's stiff back and decided to give him a massage later on. Even if Izuku rarely worked out at home, she knew how much time and effort he had put into training. As his mother, she wanted to praise and reward his efforts somehow, even if earlier she had decided to not pamper him as much.

However, as she washed more and more, getting a feel of his warm and trained body, a certain thought started to rise. 'Maybe not holding back won't be the worse,'

Inko shook her head, thinking it was way too fast and dirty. After more than a decade of being fine with her dry lands, she never expected her to still have this much lust. She tried to hide her blush before it was Izuku's turn to wash her but he noticed it all the same. 

Inko saw Izuku reach out to her and swiftly turned her back. She heard a slight chuckle from behind and shuddered when Izuku touched her back. Though, after the initial touch, His hands felt like magic to her as they calmed her riled-up body down. She sighed in relief after calming down and fully enjoyed Izuku's care toward her.

While Inko had her turmoil, Izuku was calm. At least on the outside since inside, Izuku was still debating whether Inko was purposefully seducing him or not. Either way, he was seduced, but after seeing her return to normal, he calmed himself down as well.
