Another day of cleaning and keeping this house a home. Inko led a simple life and she was happy about it. How could she not be?
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpK9iCZPQOc
Someone like her, gave birth to three beautiful and wonderful children.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl97PtLHAK8
Two of them famous and powerful heroes. The youngest is on his way to being just as great. Everyday her hearts fills with love, she is so proud of her children.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyzfMyc3UrD
Right now, she is cooking dinner for her son Izuku who should be back from…wherever Toshi took him.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPgU5PLWYm
*Knock* *Knock*
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCNKWEMxz0t
Inko: “That must be them.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqELwu054hM
Inko cleaned off her hands and went to the door. When she opened it, she got a delightful surprise.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQEFHsQE5t
Inko: “Tatsumaki, Fubuki! What brings you home?”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ES5aZegqy
Tatsumaki: “Well…”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2bc93C0fgz
Izuku: “Go on.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFkQDILcYE
Slowly, a small girl moved to the front and looked up at her with familiar green eyes.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGAAsfy8aKo
Valkyrie: “Okaasan.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRjgU3HSOy
…
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBZc2QihRy
…
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJN87PCiQOl
And just like that, Inko fainted, eyes rolling to the back of her head as her body tilted like a falling tree.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡinvIIx3PYN
Izuku caught her with his powers while Tatsumaki sighed. Valkyrie could only tilt her head.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWjtFtTxuA
Fubuki: “I’ll…prepare some coffee.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMMbZyC25GW
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr4lplNzvPf
Tatsumaki watched as her mother slowly came to on the couch, yawning. Valkyrie was sitting beside Izuku & Tatsumaki and perpendicular to her, busy munching on some cookies that she retrieved from the cabinet.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFIJ61YA7l
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGezQQUBblP
The little girl had initially wanted to make off with the entire sugarcube jar Fubuki was using to make coffee. But one icy glare from her was enough to scare Valkyrie off.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP3lc2Wl8fW
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3G6R6hhhk
Izuku did wonder if she needed to eat physical food as a construct? A wiggling instinct told him she was just eating things for their taste instead of their actual nutritional value.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCU4mDilrVQ
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX8PZgLE5Pw
Inko: "Ehh, Tatsumaki?"
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIPwfT7xY9
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lMwoBO8vW
She mumbled, confused as to why she had been sleeping on the couch. She began to sit up, blinking blearily.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7WidIDoAqF
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbuVPglhQH1
Inko "I just had the most peculiar dream where I had another daughteraaaaaaAAAAAHHHHH!"
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlPHZgtmlXu
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgdrC5DV84q
Inko had shrieked that last part out loud upon seeing the girl lounging lazily beside her two children on their couch. Valkyrie gave her a little wave then took another small bite of her cookie, seemingly contented while she munched slowly. The older woman turned to Tatsumaki, looking a little harried and distraught. She needed some answers and the eldest daughter surely had them.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPaISiasJvg
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnx64IN0AO
And she did. Fubuki gave Inko some coffee while Tatsumaki gave her the whole story. Well, not the whole story. Tatsumaki didn’t want to scare her mother to death with the knowledge that Izuku nearly killed himself.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVix0NMInRC
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cVAjVRiT7
Inko: "This is…a lot to take in. Okay, okay let me just…calm down. Yeah."
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfkEaI0f3l2
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2eHn2HMevg
Inko: “Normally, I would think this girl has some mind-control quirk that's taking you all over-”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWGAY37om8
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DAUb63gcO
Fubuki: “That thought has crossed my mind.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzRd9Ht2NHn
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFaqxQvODPA
Fubuki says quietly as she takes a sip of her coffee.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt47KNrvsLT
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGMucHr0zcr
Inko: “But, there seems to be some credibility to your claims. It's not the first time I've seen something like this. In fact, a member of our family was able to do something similar…"
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtRdgZ2AR6
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4xU3mQ1Ft
Tatsumaki & Izuku: "What?!”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD5uUhFJIZb
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEZKsLDXAO
Fubuki nearly chokes on the coffee from this surprise admission.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwzojNvaau
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAk4E3WzdMk
Izuku: “That's awesome, we had such an amazing Quirk in our family?"
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqZ8j3KGCD
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaweHLibD6
Tatsumaki: "Why didn't you tell us?"
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPknvlQpPo
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLy9evhHtCo
Inko: "It was decades ago, sweetie. Your great-grandmother Taiga; my grandmother, was able to create tiny little mental projections too. Little animals the size of her palm that she used to entertain me with…it seems so nostalgic now that I think of it."
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFkIfm6m2ck
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡATDJGnV9I3
Inko smiled, slowly changing places so that she was now besides Valkyrie. The girl gazed up at her, then squeezed her eyes shut adorably as her hair got ruffled again.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6bW5CIUnQ
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZaXOH5cqJ
Inko: "You're a cute one, aren't you?"
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxj047IC81O
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ceLfbY50Q
Valkyrie: "Nn."
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwZNIjn8CU
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UT6Z5ZZPJ
Izuku: "Then…this has happened before?"
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hn8sG7aX2
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiiG5SSOtO6
Inko: "Not on this scale. My grandmother's constructs were never this detailed, nor did they have a will of their own. They were just telekinetic puppets…but this girl…she has a mind of her own, like an actual person, doesn't she?"
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL4u4QCgZBI
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLuwI0qeim4
Valkyrie snuggled into the older woman's side, eyes closed serenely. Inko sighed, a gentle hand coming up to stroke the construct on the back. She seemed to like it, leaning into her a little further.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBPa36lQaw6
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYGrFSe0iC0
Fubuki: "You’re taking this rather well mom. You do realize that she’s Valkyrie, the notorious vigilante?"
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74f8MEvyQM
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCKNr5vWKyn
Inko: “…Huh?”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGF4MO8EElW
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYMR9PKHjMH
Izuku: “Oh yeah, you should probably transform Valkyrie.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnVCfXJ6j6A
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF8GXcppFCT
The girl stopped munching and freed herself from her mother's grasp, trudging into the center of the room and turning back to face them.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19BZuBc1vD
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeteLqTGULi
There was no sound when she suddenly transformed, only the visual effect of her growing exponentially into an adult woman like a time-lapse of a documentary, hair lengthening and skin paling. Her eyes were milky white once again, alight with that eerie emerald glow.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq9H5eu0Cpq
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtTUhni6n10
Now standing before them in her full glory was the infamous Valkyrie, Number One Vigilante. Wanted by several different Police departments, and at the top of Endeavor's 'most hated' list.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6Pl9VaN7P
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiAxsX2RRM
Inko's jaw dropped, mouth agape as she connected the dots. She looked between her son, then at the projection in her living room…and groaned loud.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcNqS5rIAF
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKgA8kSnGC
Inko: "Okay, this is a surprise. This is gonna be a long night."
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPkAlIkAUqk
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSfMHftNGk
Inko spent the next several minutes setting ground rules. Like Valkyrie can’t transform anywhere near the house, so people don’t get any ideas.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowpc5tQgcj
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNoLLsuLxle
She will only be allowed to be a vigilante during the Weekends. Valkyrie’s main priority would be Izuku, which was fine by her.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoiFKGry3Su
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrf0g3VQtO
Living arrangement was something else discussed. To Fubuki’s increasing displeasure, Valkyrie was given her old room. She didn’t dispute it out loud.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQx7YEKT5R
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLett2SlRUO
It made sense.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF4driVt7ZS
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1TOgd2bII
Her old room was closer to Izuku’s and spacious. But this only made her darkest thoughts seem more…real.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAdkn8cfDY
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqioEYxzmQe
When all was said and done, the family had dinner. Tatsumaki, Izuku and Fubuki were sitting at the table while Inko finished cooking. Humming happily all the while.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Fk57SkxvD
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1W3WAbqWD
Valkyrie, back in her small form, trotted into the kitchen and peeked at the pot of soup Inko was currently the tending to on the stove, sniffing to take in its aroma.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnri3TIUMwc
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcoYQkXsn1n
Inko: “Hmm? Here, try some.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGPjobOWBS
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZG2XDOzyu
She smiled and lowered her ladle for Valkyrie to have some warm soup. A few moments later she tugged at the older woman’s apron to ask for more wordlessly, to which Inko chuckled and lowered the ladle for her again.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCcHmmYWUh2
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgSctPv4Hk
Inko: “Heh, I used to do that around my Mom, too.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQHdptvP6rj
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ277U4QHotZ
Afterward, Valkyrie went back to the table and sat next to Izuku. All the while eyeing each dish patiently as they made their way to the table one by one.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb2UYxA3n5t
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHujKxSf8dM
Izuku smiled, watching her carefully inspect the plate that his mother handed over with some side dishes and vegetables.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbC4F3q2WZh
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZHesGDxaCE
Inko: “Dig in everyone. Aw, I’m so happy to have another family dinner so soon.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqduieYIKp3
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxyyjr1xdrq
Izuku: “Yeah, we should do this more often.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYiV13LVbb7
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoVv9FrlQud
Tatsumaki: “But you don’t have to cry about it mom.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhc3UCdpW5
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWDL836RLH
Inko: “I know, and I don’t think I won’t ever shed some tears. I’m just so proud of all of you.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kVIbOUJyg
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6llV75Jjh
That got the family to smile warmly, only Fubuki’s was a bit frigid, but she kept it well hidden. As for Valkyrie, she looked at her plate for a moment before digging in.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUxaQV6dqpD
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡteX6HECfRy
Izuku: “Do you…need to eat Valkyrie?”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSxQs7CSkas
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmJvapNC0sC
She shakes her head before answering.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBjP765Ord
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLsWJIoExxi
Valkyrie: “Like it. Okaasan’s food.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVP9p3Hg1K
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8HQbPezIT
Inko: “Awwwww, thank you sweetie.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI0VEYg1QlG
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWBW0ZbS93
The little girl mumbled something inaudible.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7pdLdcfRBU
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhe2rnN4izD
Inko: “Hm?”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfRkep5h5Cu
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0JR5LVfYl
Valkyrie: “No, thank you.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyp6dpadzpt
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡReJbMI7WIU
Inko: “No need to thank me for the food, sweetie. I mean, it’s my duty as a housewife-”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcIlQRkoMrx
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡobjiIMsuJg
Valkyrie: “Not for the food. For…accepting me.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgds7pjgxG
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmFYDgkEht5
Inko: “Of course I’ll accept you! After all, we’re family.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHRYuQQSUd5
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVnxjT74oh
There was a surging wave of emotion from the mental link between Izuku and Valkyrie. It was like a dam breaking and water rushing through. Izuku didn’t feel it himself, though he knew what it was. Valkyrie stared at Inko for a while, then slid out of her chair to carefully walk around the rectangular table. She closed her eyes and bounded over the last few feet in a rush to bury her face into Inko’s shirt, hugging her tightly.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVzlNmmD8aK
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfSnmQEPLb
Though Inko was surprised by the sudden contact at first but gradually relaxed, a motherly look overcoming her expression as she ruffled the girl’s hair lovingly. Valkyrie rubbed her face into Inko’s shirt, soft murmuring emitted from within the fabric. It was only when Izuku leaned in closer that he could hear what she was saying.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡECUNYBvQSl
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkpxlD6LUz
Valkyrie: “Thank you, for letting me have a family.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGFkY1gT70
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAvFx0znmxc
Tatsumaki: “Okay, I can admit that she’s a bit cute like that.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1POJBmuppj
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4iVPgG7Pd
It was at that moment, Fubuki got up.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRx3Z9mU21C
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsrwkYPD95V
Fubuki: “I better get going.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2kqEo8GRP9
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFjbsFrcK9
Inko: “F-Fubuki? Are you sure? We just started dinner.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwyWNVvoFZ
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5PRoJWPEp
Fubuki: “I’m full and I have some work I need to do.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFn9NIEqcU5
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQX3PumJvfh
Fubuki got her things and headed toward the door, while ignoring the different looks.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhykICD1Ti
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwxkBjwlve
Izuku and Inko’s eyes were filled with worry.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDJFtdzy9y
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnkRpht6oKU
Valkyrie seemed emotionless but she also felt something.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfGyHEVOvBz
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqeffbf3cXR
Tatsumaki looked at her little sister intensely, trying to work out what the problem is. And how she could fix it. Not knowing that she is part of the problem.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡra9VJ5SWyR
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6mCCTjvgoJ
As she opens the door, she sensed a presence behind her. She knows who it is. Deep down, she wished it was Tatsumaki that came for her. Maybe they could have a sister to sister talk. But they haven’t had one since…Izuku was born…
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxv8Is2YH1
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHrvdu1oW0E
Valkyrie: “Onee-”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡui2xzleiMb
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwzucsNerA
Fubuki: “Don’t call me that.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQioix7Bg59
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrK7Xsmm0sc
Valkyrie: “…Are you…alright? I’m…sorry if-”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5VvkCQ2uFW
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKKpv7xDsA
Valkyrie could sense the compacted mess of emotions within her older sister. But how can she fix it? She wants to but…she doesn’t know how.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPIIk9fNzt7
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucy7GVe8Yj
Fubuki: “Don’t apologize. I just have some work to do. Nothing is wrong.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD2jlygt8Tf
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFZrzzvsgB
She’s lying but Valkyrie can’t do anything but watch Fubuki leave.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAdKIPswayv
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPcJV0yvqP
Hours later, Fubuki is back at her agency.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnMyZ1voes4
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5mG8b5PWb
The Blizzard Group.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoz2IGfffeh
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9kNFcmsfaN
Thanks to her efforts, it’s one of the largest agencies in Japan. If she can’t surpass her sister herself, maybe numbers would do the trick.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWCyIHxvfC
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kjwRx3pL2
But…it hasn’t worked out well. No matter their successes, it’s overshadowed by Tatsumaki or one of the other Top 10 heroes.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeb7YMdpuxh
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqkU8kkALZ
Instead, her group is known for something she made sure her family knows nothing about.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuD6AzhBFG9
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHhSeekE7P
She walks through the dim halls shadowed by some of the group’s members.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡefyb8dCy6Y
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARDepnQx2V
“The new 17th and 18thhero have been successfully…persuaded to keep in their position.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8Fu31bW4J
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXS3LL040d
Fubuki: “Good work. Any more rookies who want to join us or intern?”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MyEycCYkE
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE4xBD1k7fX
“Not…quite yet.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2fqcIkvfn
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbWNPxZCkbJ
Fubuki: “Let me guess, they wanted to work under my sister instead?”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSbdlHOLwO
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyDcAzHfCS
“Well…”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzGYDj8AWO
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMfRNBTdPe
Fubuki: “For someone who doesn’t really care about her agency, she sure is still popular among the youth.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Fn6lUWuUh
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3MkykThZFm
“We’ll do better at improving our image. Also, congratulations.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBanL7XbIj
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zJJGYghuR
Fubuki: “Hm?”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHTbOO0WZqS
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0225hWt5Ih
“We heard the news. Your brother getting his quirk. I’m sure he’ll intern here and later join you. It’s worth celebrating.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKzXpfMzMs
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8S1ILxq10
Fubuki: “…Yes, I suppose it is.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTciC99qvd
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrepqvoGdn
“So can we expect you at the celebration party?”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ipUCBdWxN
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJzJQlWM4E
Fubuki: “Sorry, not today. I’m…tired.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEIpIvtmjO
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oFvhMiOcy
Before he could inquire further, Fubuki entered her room and shut the door. When silence reigned in the atmosphere, she let out a breath she has been holding for a while.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD7YJGt9Cwk
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUoGcZOvlcM
Like a zombie, she took off her designer clothes, took a shower and laid down on her bed. Usually, the supremely soft, and expensive, cloth would calm her.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhi7N4Nsrg
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQFuL3B9yi
But not tonight.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmDUT9IjgpJ
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPewPyxNcSK
Nightmares echo in her mind as she stares up at the ceiling. The possibilities of today’s implications hang onto her like a parasite.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlJxOTdS3QP
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTckhZ8MlV
Fubuki: “I should be happy for Izu. He’ll be a hero, have something to protect him. But…I’m not…I’m a terrible big sister.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2mNDbf0aRP
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ61p56VdRaX
She turns to the window and reflected in it is Psykos. She knows it’s not real, she’s seen it enough times to be boring.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLlSYdWa07d
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY7G6VNLJQ7
But this time comes with an implicit suggestion. She turns away from the image.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQfqOUywid
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZgR8BAgxD
Fubuki: “No, not my brother. I can’t.”
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QLqlATWcc
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8YMVyo4LFn
But then her mind flashes back to what almost happened today.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUUSUICWSCo
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe28ipuwvv8
Izuku almost died.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwAYGhTvU2

Due to his powers.

Death.
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5UknerB5y
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCXqkSn16r
Her heart quakes with the thought. Would it…be so…bad if he wasn’t a hero?
197Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5A1p9opWG
