It was no secret that girls made him jumpy. Itsuka was his first real friend in years and he was still nervous around her half the time, mostly when he was aware of her feminine charms. Which was happening a lot. But Momo, he didn't have much exposure to just Momo. If anything this was the first time he and Momo had been alone together since he stared at her awkwardly on the train platform.

And he didn't expect her to be able to drink tea so menacingly! It was like that cup was filled with an ocean of disappointment that she was just casually sipping while looking at him with her dark chocolate eyes.

"Izuku, do you know why I've asked you to join me here today?" She asked placing the tea cup down and shifting slightly. They were at a fancy cafe located near Momo's house, it had an upstairs garden area which was where they were currently drinking their tea. Well, Momo was drinking, he was just sitting there all but fused to the chair waiting for her to finally berate him.

Itsuka was better, he could handle the flicks, not this mental torture!

[You have taken 5 mental damage from Momo's intimidation tactics. Tea drinking is sure scary huh?]

"Uhh, kind-"

[Momo Yaoyorozu tea time date! Objective woo Momo!]

[A. That red top you're wearing really makes your boobs look great!]

[B. Yo, you got dat ass to go wit dem tiddies?]

[C. Every time I look into your eyes I see my future in them, our smiles, our laughter, our children, will you please join my harem? I have a feeling that Itsuka is fond of the Amazon press and I'm too weak to handle that.]

What the fuck? Why now? What was going on? Why was his quirk like this? He couldn't speak, he could barely move his head as he stared at Momo who's soft frown bordered on a smile. This wasn't good was his quirk really going to make him say one of those options? What would Momo think? Guh! Well he wasn't going to say anything like that. This was his quirk!

"Honestly, I do understand what you're going through. Or at least part of it. Wondering if my friends are really my friends was something I went through in middle school. Why did they like me? Did they like me because of my family, because I was wealthy?" Momo sighed and stared into her cup for a few moments. Her smile was more of a frown at that moment, she shrugged. "Turns out, they weren't really my friends."

Momo righted herself and met his gaze, one hand right above her heart in that so very Momo like pose she struck whenever she was being heartfelt. She was such an earnest person, both her and Itsuka were. He really shouldn't have doubted her.

[A. That's great, so can we be real friends with benefits?]

[B. They sound like shitty people, we should have sex in their beds for revenge.]

[C. While they might have been after you for your money, you can rest assured I'm after you for your body.]

Why was his quirk like this?

Momo! Help! He couldn't even use the party chat!

"I would like to assure you that while Itsuka is certainly enthusiastic about your quirk, that both of us are indeed your friends. While it is true that none of us would have met if it wasn't for your quirk, that's not why we are friends." Momo sighed and pushed back a strand of her dark hair, she pinched her nose and then narrowed her eyes at him. "Certainly you have your faults, you're rather moody, quick to blame your quirk, and you're reluctant to share information with both myself and Itsuka, But you are improving. I've noticed it, and we barely get to hang out. Itsuka says you smile a lot more. So please don't doubt that our friendship is genuine."

He wanted to cry. Partially because he couldn't move but mostly because of Momo being just so sweet. He promised he was going to be more open with them! Just as soon as he could speak.

Momo coughed and continued. "As for whether or not your quirk is controlling our feelings, Well that actually goes into the argument of free will."

[A. The only argument I have is to why you will free those titties.]

[B. If my quirk could control your feelings, why am I still a virgin?]

That one was actually a good question.

[C. Will you do me the honor of marrying me and becoming my wife along with Itsuka Kendo and Nejire Hado?]

Who the hell was Nejire Hado?

"This is a bit tricky and I can understand why you're having a problem with this. It is true that your quirk is powerful in several unique ways. Honestly, it's a bit mind boggling all it can do. But I'd like to start by dispelling your belief that your quirk can change the weather." Momo pulled out out a newspaper and pointed towards the front page, it was about All Might fighting a villain and punching so hard that he changed the weather. "Honestly, the exact physics of how All Might can punch in a storm like that one are simply beyond me but it appears that he is also the cause for the flooding at the train station as well. Well, not so much his fault as much as he was trying to save someone that got stuck and had to punch the wall so the train wouldn't crash. So your quirk didn't actually cause all that. All Might did."

Ahh. That actually explained a lot.

"Now then, as for the free will part of your quirk. I admit this is a bit of a grey area and has been since the dawn of time. Even now, people don't think free will is true. But I think its real. I know what it feels like to not be in control. And when I'm with you, when I'm thinking about you, I know that I am in control of my thoughts." She blushed and a strand of her hair fell in front of her face. "Well, mostly, I think being a teenager might limit that a bit. But anyways. I am your friend because I choose to be. But have you ever experienced being not in control Izuku?"

[A. I'm not in control of my desire for you!]

[B. Want to lose control for a few hours at your place?]

[C. Wanna fuck?]

Would his quirk please let him tell Momo how he felt? Like how hard was it to just let him talk with Momo? He wanted to tell her that she was right. That he wanted her to be right.

"You're right, I'm sure you must have. Your quirk is rather cruel to you if I'm-" Momo looked at him and tilted her head to the side. "Is your quirk stopping your from talking right now?"

He wanted to nod but couldn't.

"Oh. You can't. Oh my, uhh. Izuku. Just calm down alright. Take a deep breath." Momo moved over to his side and grabbed his hand kneeling down beside him. "Just breathe. Think about something important to you. Remember when you said that you told your quirk you wanted to save me and you did. Despite it trying to not let you. Please. I need you to call upon that strength again. Just breath."

It wasn't that. He just didn't want to say something stupid or perverted! He wanted to let Momo know that he was happy they were friends! That she was beautiful, that her shirt was really cute and that she should let her hair down more!

"I'm happy we're friends!" He shouted. "I'm really really happy! I think you're really beautiful and I like your red shirt its really cute on you and you should let your hair down more you look good like that. Also I want to make you smile by making you food again!"

[You're welcome.]

Momo blinked at him, her lips were drawn in and her face was a bright brilliant red that was slowly matching the color of her top. "Ahh. I see you snapped out of it."

"Sorry, Momo."

"No no, it's quite alright, but what was happening?" Momo stood and practically skipped over to her seat. Her smile was growing and she touched her hair softly before taking a sip of her tea.

Izuku sighed and took a sip of his tea, already ready for bed. "It was giving me dialogue choices. Ones I wasn't willing to say." He bit his lip. He did say he was going to be more honest with them right? "They were really perverted and I didn't want you to think I actually thought that way."

"I see, well thank you. I'm glad you managed to break out of it." Momo pulled at her ponytail and hummed softly. "And thank you for your kind words earlier. I do hope those were your own words."

"They were." His cheeks burned when he said that. "But uhh, Momo, can I uhh tell you something?"

"That's why we're here today is it not?" Momo smiled and took another sip of her tea. "If I'm honest I'm hoping that we leave today understanding each other better."

"Well umm, this is a bit hard to mention. But," Izuku sunk into his seat and looked at the muffins that were sitting on the table. This place looked expensive. "Do you remember the night that we saved you?"

"Of course. How could I forget. That night was when I met my two best friends."

Holy crap, Momo was so pure it almost hurt to see her smile like that. It was like that smile was purifying his body of all impure thoughts.

"Well, uhh, in order to get you to join the party there was something I had to accept." He took a breath, this was no big deal, they both knew about the Harem Protagonist class and its weird skill now so perhaps this wouldn't be too big of a deal. "Basically it was called Harem Mode. It didn't sound to bad at the time, and I didn't really read it because I was too focused on uhh-"

"Trying to save me?" Momo offered letting her hair down and fluffing it slightly. It really did make her look more mature and just that much prettier. Now he just needed to get her to wear some glasses and like, dress like a librarian and why was he a pervert?

"Yeah. But from what I remember it had a few effects. The first is that my reputation wouldn't go down unless I made a big fuck up. The second is that you and Itsuka would become friends faster."

Momo held up her hand to stop him. "Izuku, me and Itsuka are friends because we get along well, not because of your quirk."

"I know, I know, I just want to get this off my chest. Besides, it also said that you two wouldn't become jealous of each other." He sighed feeling a weight come off of his chest. "So, have you been jealous of any-"

"You." Momo sighed.

"Huh?"

"I find myself frustrated whenever it's just you and Itsuka. I would say that it's pretty close to jealousy. Like I'm being left out." Momo stared at her cup of tea and let out a long even breath, her cheeks were slightly flushed and her hands were shaking ever so slightly. "But, it's more than that. I'm jealous of both of you. Itsuka for getting the chance to hang out with you, and you for getting the chance to hang out with Itsuka. I know it's difficult for me to join you guys because of how far away our schools are, but it's still so frustrating."

Momo let out a sharp sigh and all but glared at him. "So yes, I do still get jealous over Itsuka. Though I do wish I didn't."

He stood, placing one hand down onto the table and walked over to her. He grabbed her hand in both of his earning a gasp from her. "Momo! I uhh." Crap what was he doing?

"Yes?" She had one hand over her heart, eyes locked onto his.

"We're going to get into U.A. All three of us. Then we'll be able to see each other every day. So just wait a bit alright?"

Momo stood, tears in her eyes and a smile on her face. She leaned forward and he felt her red lips press against his cheek. "Thank you Izuku, that actually means a lot to me."

Holy shit! You're both so adorable. Or you would be if it didn't take for-fucking-ever. You're welcome.

For a moment, Izuku just stared at Momo with wide eyes still holding her hand. That was technically his first kiss with a girl. That was huge right?

[Itsuka Kendo: Uhh guys! I think I found something! Something big!]
