The next day, Izuku awoke with the feeling of something warm and alive on top of him. His sleepy eyes fluttered open to find Kiri lying on his chest, her smaller body rising and falling gently alongside each breath he took. They resembled an otter parent and child pair lazing atop each other, her little fists clutching his pajama shirt tight while she dozed peacefully. A lock of his dark hair drifted near her mouth, and she began to chew on it, even drooling a little.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEURtyfPlQV
However, there’s a problem.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwiKzACfHc
Kiri: “Nmu… ”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRdgtHlivL
This is his room, and she shouldn’t be here. Izuku fought down his blush and sucked in his panic.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfL0NXj7yCQ
Izuku: ‘Did she sleepwalk?’
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrs6p8GZj13
Glancing at his bedside clock, he noticed it was almost time to get up and get ready for school. The boy tried to gently slide her off without waking her up. Ironically, his actions had the opposite effect when she held on tighter the moment she felt her 'bed' shifting.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSCSq6VOCMb
With no choice, Izuku prodded at her cheek tenderly, careful not to startle her.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvfKpkQ8rd
Izuku: "Kiri?"
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxo8ZUMNBw
Kiri: "Nn?"
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotKrPg1Cwu
The little girl let out a small yawn.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHoY13TLEW
Kiri: "Nii-chan… ”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYyjaq2E00o
Izuku: "Y-Yeah, it's me. W-What are you doing here?"
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ8XUqT1Fos
Kiri: “Wanted… to be close to you.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEED5pZzRod
Izuku: “But… we can’t sleep in the same bed. You should’ve stayed in your room. Did you sleepwalk?”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡieWTxJjzUK
Kiri: “No, I couldn’t sleep… until I was with you.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxAMf69K198
She looked at him with such innocent eyes, dispelling any worries of other thoughts. But still, this can’t go on. Izuku shifted their positions so they were sitting cross-legged across from each other.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYT47g4MuAp
Izuku: “Kiri, we have to clear up the misunderstanding at school.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGuavJx8Hi
Kiri: “What misunderstanding?”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHvvyyUDOCt
Izuku: “That you’re my… girlfriend.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqqa23hNfD
Kiri: “But I’m a girl, and you’re my friend.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYvhHYqsRl
Izuku: “Yes, but a girlfriend is something different. It’s… only for couples.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVGMDVA5F9M
Kiri: “Couples?”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzgvndg2mT
Izuku: “Y-Yes, those who love each other.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFCgBMcqtlt
Kiri: “But… I do love you.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMOwhLmau2r
Izuku couldn’t help but blush a bit from that. Sure, he sees Kiri as a little sister, but she’s still a cute girl. Hearing that from a cute girl would of course get a reaction.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWOIOxoV9R
A reaction that made Kiri feel… strange again. More good this time.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyhSxd3pT2h
Izuku: “I-I-I know you do, b-but that’s familial love, not romantic.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbjGIpo6pa
Kiri: “What’s… the difference?”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcXRPb3111d
Izuku: “Um, one is for your family, and the other is for someone you… intend to marry.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrXp1hhYZq
Kiri: “Mmmmmm, can’t we get married?”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvF7hUxZzW
Izuku: “W-What!? No!”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4FlrrGpjm
Kiri: “Why?”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpze5yrGjeH
Izuku: “Because you’re like my sister! Siblings can’t get married!”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgfXv3on7Gr
Kiri: “Why not?”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwJPn5KFvAW
Izuku: “Because… because… ”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNtxF08WATj
The more he thought on it, the more the reasons don’t work in this case. Kiri is a mental construct, so the genetic argument doesn’t work.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUe7KxZhEWZ
But still, he shouldn’t see her that way. If Kiri is okay, then maybe-
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx6zaipuk8r
Izuku shakes his head violently, banishing those bad thoughts.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHd9sP5mVsn
Izuku: “Look, Kiri, we just can’t. Please, just tell everyone we’re just friends. Not girlfriend and boyfriend. Can you do that for me?”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhAje57asV
Kiri: “… Okay.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmG3fRQAZl
He can tell she still doesn’t really get it, but this will have to do for now.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbDfBahpTr
Izuku: “Good, now we have to get ready for school. We can’t be late.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJf6BTLQtIw
Kiri: “Nh.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ29WJr1tOls
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQw5TE7JYs
After running to school, because they were almost late and for exercise, the duo got breakfast and then attended their first class.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pDBUNNUOR
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOGdj0T1jY
Present Mic: “All right, class. Tell me where the mistake is in the English sentence. Who knows the answer? Everybody, hands up and raise them high!”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjsjc5KB3r
‘So normal!’
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbczdB7K0l
The whole class shared the same sentiment. Some students were dozing off, like Mina, or even sleeping, like Kiri. She didn’t see much reason to learn this stuff after all.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7dXDy2LZ8
The only one who seemed to be enjoying himself was Izuku. After that though, the class was allowed to gather at the grand mess hall.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBWIQMIrYW
The group was pretty big; nearly the whole class was together. Much to Izuku’s delight, he was welcomed with open arms.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFcuktu6u77
Izuku: ‘I never expected to get this many friends, all at once.’
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UNIb04PO3
They group shared their names, the basics of their quirks, and complaints about schoolwork. You know, normal school life.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1k9avVXEgt
That did, however, leave little time to clear up the Kiri misunderstanding.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSLOhSyU5n
Regardless, that normalcy was coming to an end, for a special teacher was coming in for their next class.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuvF6l09dkd
All Might: "I AM HERE…"
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKuD4AZGdpm
Everyone's heads perked, and wide grins split their faces at the welcomed surprise.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnu4o31ob4a
All Might: "COMING THROUGH THE DOOR LIKE A NORMAL PERSON!"
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Q39koCwDo
"We have All Might as a teacher?!"
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADp3PRFUnu
The class erupted in excitement as All Might walked in, resplendent in his Silver Age costume.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOnweF8ri3W
Mina: "Whoa, his style is so different! I swear I'm hearing a theme song right now!"
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mB7W4GPeY
Jiro: "You're not the only one."
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9QJMLtooZw
All Might proceeded to chew the scenery right up as he heroically made his way to the podium and put his fists on his hips.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRUtSfhF87
All Might: "I will be teaching Fundamental Heroics! In this subject, we will be putting all of you through your paces so that you can learn the basics of being a Hero. We'll be here quite often. This class and its subsequent advanced versions will have the most units per semester."
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoonYuZ74nj
He seemed to flex, and somehow managed to make a card appear in his hand.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZe4W0C4N8G
All Might: "So let's get right into it! Your first class shall be… Combat Training!"
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS6u0K3vFTc
The card had the word 'Battle' written on it.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRnHUcO96t8
Bakugo: "Combat?!"
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhJoDwer6x
He was grinning broadly, beyond excited. With this, he could prove once and for all who’s on top.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pC4qJ3b6P
All Might: "And for that you need these!"
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvwb6y5JcAe
All Might clicked a button and several panels popped out of the wall to the far side of the room. Each of them had five containers labeled from 1 to 15.209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvSk129dIyg
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Djt5ntnbG
All Might: "In accordance with the Quirk Registry as well as your own written requests... here are your-”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qqDn8Tv3F
"COSTUMES!"
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRtQfxdEtCG
Nearly the whole class shouted in glee. They couldn't wait to see how all of them had turned out.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG0FMhIGbZh
All Might: "That's right! After you change, meet me at Ground Beta!"
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfXt5QhWiGU
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xClSpFD51
All Might stood alone now, fists again on his hips as he waited for his students to start coming through the tunnel into Ground Beta. His grin widened as he started picking up on faint footsteps before the first of them broke into the light.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwFdbUNQIJ1
All Might: "They say the costume makes the hero, young ladies and gentlemen."
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ31zFqaIehT
He eyed each of them and liked what he saw with most of the costumes.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp50Tzcx8e8
All Might: "Be proud. From this moment on, you are HEROES!”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2G90dhJYX0
Behind the rest of the class, Izuku and Kiri were the last ones walking out of the tunnel. He had gotten a little lost in a memory when he and Kiri first put on their costume.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3BdfdKiQ2Q
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAim3efhBaW
It was the night before his first day at UA, and the family had just finished dinner. After cleaning up, Inko pulled him and Kiri aside with a brilliant smile on her face.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RJoyv7aRT
Inko: “Me and Fubuki have a surprise for you! Right, Fubuki?”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCSm2QcZQVs
Fubuki was pretty silent throughout dinner, but hearing her name finally brought her back to reality.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiFKFuIdeY
Fubuki: “O-Oh, yes! I almost forgot, stay here, Izu!”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOvOgPIDgn
Fubuki nearly ran out the door.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1a7WXWoWj
Izuku: “What is it?”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnv4iF3ItD6
Tatsumaki: “Something we made for when you were accepted into UA.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUaJof5evu3
Inko: “Fubuki was the one who came up with the idea and even paid for it. Tatsu and I helped design it. But we did take a peek into your hero journals for inspirations.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBk4WzrZwod
Before Izuku could wonder what they made, Fubuki came back with two large metal suitcases. She floated them in with her quirk and laid them on the couch.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhO1kPGeyy
Fubuki: “I really hope you too like it. I spared no expense.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgcZmlrdy1
Izuku and Kiri got on their knees and opened the suitcases. Their eyes widen at the gift.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkIUpOKN9M
Tatsumaki: “You’re heroes now; you have to look the part.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJeYaknhI1
Izuku beamed a brilliant grin, which brought joy to those that saw it.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKlSRWJ7yrl
Izuku: “Thank you, for everything!”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxViSdMg747
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO4sgKoypCJ
Uraraka: "Woah! You two look amazing!"
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DPA6EQc6w
The gleeful cry from Ochaco drew all of their attention, and several more exclamations rang out.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGdjQFKEJEj
Mina: "Wow, matching outfits!? So cute!"
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡss2o2kndLx
Mina's voice rang out as she started excitedly running around them, checking out every angle.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwGiheUpeuF
Momo: "Quite cool. I like it a lot."
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIrVSAVF2U
Momo smiled at him specifically, getting another luminescent blush from the shy boy.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocfNrlgtNN
Izuku: “T-Thank you.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafvTc2L2o4
Denki: "Jeez, looking at him makes my costume look like a crappy cosplay. I'm a bit intimidated."
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyyUtSJppO0
Kaminari complained in good humor. He was wearing clothes that wouldn't have looked out of place at a rock concert. They looked like regular clothes.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NCE46lEfl
Bakugo: “Tch.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡImdq2i4k6d
Izuku's full costume looked to be in a similar style to the one All Might was wearing. It was a full bodysuit and had a green cape, but that was where the similarities ended.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG2BQo38kDS
Rather than spandex, it was a combat bodysuit similar to those really old space-themed video games from the previous century like Crysis or Mass Effect.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUpvCmGWr3
It was primarily black, but there were some green accents woven in through the suit. The gloves and boots were bright green, as was the cape and the shoulders, running down to his arms. A bright green bird of prey was emblazoned on his chest.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHln2Xse1M
Finally, an emerald sash rested on his hips for his Psi blade.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QAnDk01zG
As for Kiri, her outfit was much the same, except her primary color was white with light green accents. She had no cape but instead had a gladiator helmet with silver wings. A helmet worthy of a Valkyrie.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVWmDwcyYI
Together, they contrast but somehow still complement each other well.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgaqdti1hin
Mina: “Aw, I’m so jealous. I wish I had a boyfriend I could have matching costumes with.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3r6ewWqeXs
Kiri: “Nh.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbl45INa5PF
Izuku: “But-”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡam9COQgiRl
All Might: "Alright, my young heroes, it is time to get started."
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyAu9D31h4
All Might interrupted the socializing since he couldn't stay in his hero form for too long.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlTnMAas4Ew
Ida: "Sensei, this is the same site we used for our entrance exams. Will we be doing cityscape maneuvers again?"
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZ8CGmM2CL
All Might: "Close! What we’ll be doing will involve indoor combat scenarios and outdoor survival."
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3lRlWcA3F
All Might: “You must be able to adapt to both scenarios as they come up. To that end, we have come up with a new combat exercise that suits the number of students.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEoDaljpLt
Tsuyu: "So no basic training?"
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2VhkL0h0Y2
All Might: "Practical experience will teach you that! The distinction here is that you won't be fighting disposable robots but each other!"
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuJXZXVOmqp
Some were surprised by the news while others were thrilled. Izuku could feel the burning glare aimed at him. He dared to send one back at his longtime bully and former friend.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzArA3SKpN
They stared at each other as the fire of their past itches to ignite into a frenzy. But All Might cuts in first.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCT2kDAjgvZ
All Might: “My Young Heroes, prepare for the 5v5v5 Combat and Survival Trial! Pick a card out of here to determine your teams.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0GelloCGR
One by one, everyone picked a card from the black box All Might had. In the end, everyone had either a green, red, or white card. Before the questions could bombard him, All Might explained.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWQbzcF5TA
All Might: “Reds will be the Villains, Greens the Heroes and Whites the Civilians.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡERCqHuINIH
All Might: “Villains need to capture all Civilians while protecting their bomb at base camp.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzVodOyk6Q0
All Might: “Heroes need to save all Civilians and bring them back to base camp while capturing the enemy bomb. You can ignore the Villains and focus on those objectives, but that will lose you points. The Villains will still be at large in this case.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNJRGKtgoVv
Momo: “That means in order to get high marks-”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhPkDoeSE9M
Uraraka: “We have to save the Civilians, bring them back to base safe, capture the bombs and beat the Villains!?”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWGNywuqPC8
All Might: “Yes, hero work is rarely easy, and the odds are often stacked against you. This is a lesson you must learn early.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR3YEELWgjU
That’s putting it lightly. The Villain team is… stacked.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7ydD4Jp9A
Villains: Bakugo, Ida, Shoto, Mina, and… Kiri.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEgsGS6DTR
Izuku looked at his little sister, and she at him.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSd4r8c9x9j
Hero: Izuku, Uraraka, Sero, Kirishima, and Momo.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Sr858VNl4
Kiri: “Onii… ”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtW1xrNJQaJ
Izuku: “It’s alright, Kiri. It’s just training.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRzllejmr0
Kiri: “But I don’t… want to fight you.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Jbc9XNYT8
Izuku: “You have to.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1w1SKx2AIy
Kiri: “But-”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFdMOUv5rC
Izuku: “Don’t go easy on Kiri. Think of it like how Fubuki fought me. This will help us become even better heroes.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ05We7BxgRv
Kiri: “Are you… sure?”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAC4yyezTtw
Izuku: “Yes! Even if we’re on opposite sides now, we’ll still be together, improving as heroes.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4lLuHeDpT
Kiri: “… Nh.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4CIzWw6Ck
Kiri nods, and her worry dissipates. But Izuku can still feel she’ll try to avoid him. It’s probably for the best, because he knows who he’ll face during this.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Go2eb4gZR
If Bakugo’s maddening grin was anything to go by.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTtZONinsR0
Jiro: “Okay, that’s all good and all. But what should the Civilians be doing?”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9YYsGpbsB
Civilians: Jiro, Shoji, Denki, Tokoyami, and Tsuyu
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlInN5MoybR
All Might: “Survival is a skill every hero must know. Your task is to evade the Villains as long as possible until the Heroes arrive.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgK2SGVe3Y
Denki looks to Ida and Kiri before sighing.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhyUbGd4bNI
Denki: “We’re doomed.”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVgaNZVaDC
All Might: “Go to your assigned areas in the city my young heroes! When you see the flare, the trial will begin!”
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcnq90acKWO
Izuku takes a deep breath before taking a step towards his first major battle.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqyCiIzkg8I
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4pxDKFckI
I want to say thank you for reading, following, and reviewing this story. It motivated me to use my holiday time to bring you another batch of chapters. Sad about my other story, it seems to be falling into obscurity.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYwv5rEmnM
I’ll focus on this since it’s what the people want.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE90Y837WJF
Now, I want to say that I don’t plan to have Kiri x Izuku happen. I’m tempted, but I don’t think Izuku would go for it. Still, I think I played with the idea too much. Even I’m starting to get annoyed by the misunderstanding.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUJXujESWB
I will break the it after this battle so the real ship can begin. As for Kiri’s feelings on the matter, we’ll see.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb682m33dzK
On another note, after doing more detailed outlines for later arcs, I’m starting to regret including the Phoenix. The more I write and plan, the more I want to focus on the ground level of the hero society.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBS2BFua5p
Much of it will expand and explore the themes that the original story covered. But that means the Phoenix has been bent to fit that, which is difficult. Primordial Vortex, you had the right idea not involving the actual Cosmic Entity.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhfVOVMrK8
But that’s life; I’ll figure it out and give you a story that can stand proudly next to the original. That’s if life doesn’t decide to bend me over a counter again.
209Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd3lsRyArwE
Until next time.
