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.

However, there’s a problem.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDXImS8RO8
Kiri: “Nmu… ”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBggVvaEyZZ
This is his room, and she shouldn’t be here. Izuku fought down his blush and sucked in his panic.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS56Qncn6fT
Izuku: ‘Did she sleepwalk?’
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTc9FSKW6km
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.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQBTi5xGIo
With no choice, Izuku prodded at her cheek tenderly, careful not to startle her.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKr5LHEkjDl
Izuku: "Kiri?"
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZAeOMoFYj
Kiri: "Nn?"
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKNRx4qzNHm
The little girl let out a small yawn.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnksM5chlG9
Kiri: "Nii-chan… ”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbbcg8PkBl
Izuku: "Y-Yeah, it's me. W-What are you doing here?"
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡslDCLggK4E
Kiri: “Wanted… to be close to you.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztJVJlj2t9
Izuku: “But… we can’t sleep in the same bed. You should’ve stayed in your room. Did you sleepwalk?”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFuFFLmfuGA
Kiri: “No, I couldn’t sleep… until I was with you.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgN3FBTRrIZ
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.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJ3br3jdNT
Izuku: “Kiri, we have to clear up the misunderstanding at school.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl4pQOQpdTX
Kiri: “What misunderstanding?”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0EzPoZD0OD
Izuku: “That you’re my… girlfriend.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo4ZAGk4CoG
Kiri: “But I’m a girl, and you’re my friend.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsLmwSlT85
Izuku: “Yes, but a girlfriend is something different. It’s… only for couples.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVwDOSMoiP
Kiri: “Couples?”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbwz1i4AAb
Izuku: “Y-Yes, those who love each other.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFJzJ22MYrC
Kiri: “But… I do love you.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAkpfV1W3Ef
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.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvQ1QEfbzm
A reaction that made Kiri feel… strange again. More good this time.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5KzHqtB9A
Izuku: “I-I-I know you do, b-but that’s familial love, not romantic.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8IcNeK0c7
Kiri: “What’s… the difference?”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmTkRQiiY3
Izuku: “Um, one is for your family, and the other is for someone you… intend to marry.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaK8P1n07JJ
Kiri: “Mmmmmm, can’t we get married?”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFUHWAAXwJj
Izuku: “W-What!? No!”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJYaoXKKgr
Kiri: “Why?”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHX8xyXGHed
Izuku: “Because you’re like my sister! Siblings can’t get married!”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD23OzbWy3C
Kiri: “Why not?”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfq9faMF9MP
Izuku: “Because… because… ”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡALmsas3Lar
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.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnIl270aOpC
But still, he shouldn’t see her that way. If Kiri is okay, then maybe-
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0p7E44w7wJ
Izuku shakes his head violently, banishing those bad thoughts.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIuZsPwMru
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?”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNndwZ6oMs
Kiri: “… Okay.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIqlbUKgVP
He can tell she still doesn’t really get it, but this will have to do for now.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3AcDASKWs
Izuku: “Good, now we have to get ready for school. We can’t be late.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZS664ERzWp
Kiri: “Nh.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEz4I89tjZ
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJseRR70PDe
After running to school, because they were almost late and for exercise, the duo got breakfast and then attended their first class.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIeK3FfXV0
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVzBuq56MQ
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!”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz40yOObOgq
‘So normal!’
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2G7egJdz6T
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.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJbIWAdjbbu
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.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxdLmMSxB2
The group was pretty big; nearly the whole class was together. Much to Izuku’s delight, he was welcomed with open arms.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2fAKk11tW
Izuku: ‘I never expected to get this many friends, all at once.’
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6RaA26nOd
They group shared their names, the basics of their quirks, and complaints about schoolwork. You know, normal school life.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMVqQXjQtYD
That did, however, leave little time to clear up the Kiri misunderstanding.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0M6DLDsfL
Regardless, that normalcy was coming to an end, for a special teacher was coming in for their next class.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtMDbIREdmP
All Might: "I AM HERE…"
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhrs4ykTS2
Everyone's heads perked, and wide grins split their faces at the welcomed surprise.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp6aEMo6nOB
All Might: "COMING THROUGH THE DOOR LIKE A NORMAL PERSON!"
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqGa2t6Zmx
"We have All Might as a teacher?!"
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpbvZtBTt4
The class erupted in excitement as All Might walked in, resplendent in his Silver Age costume.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJS7FIhtNM
Mina: "Whoa, his style is so different! I swear I'm hearing a theme song right now!"
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8kO509myk
Jiro: "You're not the only one."
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD8tijAADYs
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.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXCpclr2fA
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."
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSJArgOur8
He seemed to flex, and somehow managed to make a card appear in his hand.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUUYYNamFs
All Might: "So let's get right into it! Your first class shall be… Combat Training!"
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1U0bpa9hBW
The card had the word 'Battle' written on it.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4ycevDoRj
Bakugo: "Combat?!"
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKkBlZovQu
He was grinning broadly, beyond excited. With this, he could prove once and for all who’s on top.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVXrS6tCKh
All Might: "And for that you need these!"
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3PNzVmwoI
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 15.19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTukFS5Txun
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WTQgyI8UF
All Might: "In accordance with the Quirk Registry as well as your own written requests... here are your-”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡour4K93Vlj
"COSTUMES!"
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ786jmuv7ml
Nearly the whole class shouted in glee. They couldn't wait to see how all of them had turned out.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPd6SM0Fppu
All Might: "That's right! After you change, meet me at Ground Beta!"
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38eRFyAfj5
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv1gYMEE8Cq
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.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5GF2JxtUuI
All Might: "They say the costume makes the hero, young ladies and gentlemen."
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhBvqw2BwFa
He eyed each of them and liked what he saw with most of the costumes.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgXOs3CV69
All Might: "Be proud. From this moment on, you are HEROES!”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9STaR4uFN5
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.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKRMbEKpAUJ
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdWbjx3wy8
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.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZSb4dhDizt
Inko: “Me and Fubuki have a surprise for you! Right, Fubuki?”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlhCwKAKim
Fubuki was pretty silent throughout dinner, but hearing her name finally brought her back to reality.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF32sWKY8cI
Fubuki: “O-Oh, yes! I almost forgot, stay here, Izu!”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6uH1AEEsjP
Fubuki nearly ran out the door.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0aRReV0pI
Izuku: “What is it?”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxWtU8vO9Je
Tatsumaki: “Something we made for when you were accepted into UA.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QflCN1Vr5
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.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyQx6yxLvv
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.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOXEjZYnhEq
Fubuki: “I really hope you too like it. I spared no expense.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSV4Zxm31Fz
Izuku and Kiri got on their knees and opened the suitcases. Their eyes widen at the gift.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1drgPThnJ
Tatsumaki: “You’re heroes now; you have to look the part.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOlTBphJYH
Izuku beamed a brilliant grin, which brought joy to those that saw it.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwh4TWRyE20
Izuku: “Thank you, for everything!”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWMtrCC7Nw
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBrwWMMKha
Uraraka: "Woah! You two look amazing!"
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9jsbueiGSm
The gleeful cry from Ochaco drew all of their attention, and several more exclamations rang out.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlagZjhkKXi
Mina: "Wow, matching outfits!? So cute!"
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5iiu8xCws
Mina's voice rang out as she started excitedly running around them, checking out every angle.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX4NJomuBXj
Momo: "Quite cool. I like it a lot."
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡps9imqyKKH
Momo smiled at him specifically, getting another luminescent blush from the shy boy.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBImQ9bTHz
Izuku: “T-Thank you.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQjzyLMeNow
Denki: "Jeez, looking at him makes my costume look like a crappy cosplay. I'm a bit intimidated."
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBsdqGUNLQI
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.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9dxK5JiwTc
Bakugo: “Tch.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnm78B2Suz7
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.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMWrW7nWuJ
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.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrT7OKMLmsG
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.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9IlLE6A0bp
Finally, an emerald sash rested on his hips for his Psi blade.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDP24cAhmY
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.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUU2EfBdzb
Together, they contrast but somehow still complement each other well.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGtTyRQbmZ4
Mina: “Aw, I’m so jealous. I wish I had a boyfriend I could have matching costumes with.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnZG4jDsJYQ
Kiri: “Nh.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL04cYbNs7c
Izuku: “But-”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiPOn9aiO71
All Might: "Alright, my young heroes, it is time to get started."
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmVbPTYdIJ
All Might interrupted the socializing since he couldn't stay in his hero form for too long.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1l9eCuqOD
Ida: "Sensei, this is the same site we used for our entrance exams. Will we be doing cityscape maneuvers again?"
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GSM7WDiJi
All Might: "Close! What we’ll be doing will involve indoor combat scenarios and outdoor survival."
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcX7Pm5uv6g
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.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HtxvRsmKc
Tsuyu: "So no basic training?"
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgSzRSgR5P
All Might: "Practical experience will teach you that! The distinction here is that you won't be fighting disposable robots but each other!"
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1dKXMWpw4
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.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1q1wcgFtuS
They stared at each other as the fire of their past itches to ignite into a frenzy. But All Might cuts in first.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDxQ4ZvzeI
All Might: “My Young Heroes, prepare for the 5v5v5 Combat and Survival Trial! Pick a card out of here to determine your teams.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklpqmwryyq
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.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NMik5wyGK
All Might: “Reds will be the Villains, Greens the Heroes and Whites the Civilians.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA3y7ndKFjp
All Might: “Villains need to capture all Civilians while protecting their bomb at base camp.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimvvM52xW1
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.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPrtyDveVJe
Momo: “That means in order to get high marks-”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuEKyNVZwc1
Uraraka: “We have to save the Civilians, bring them back to base safe, capture the bombs and beat the Villains!?”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSb8seAARba
All Might: “Yes, hero work is rarely easy, and the odds are often stacked against you. This is a lesson you must learn early.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEFEMMIsZK9
That’s putting it lightly. The Villain team is… stacked.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ElTFN4WkM
Villains: Bakugo, Ida, Shoto, Mina, and… Kiri.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs14XySMebk
Izuku looked at his little sister, and she at him.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDcJNGqLYDg
Hero: Izuku, Uraraka, Sero, Kirishima, and Momo.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlszYYJAaAV
Kiri: “Onii… ”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYgEvoNTL5
Izuku: “It’s alright, Kiri. It’s just training.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWL9Kuq0Ven
Kiri: “But I don’t… want to fight you.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NxOLpkSSI
Izuku: “You have to.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj0UWf5OZoV
Kiri: “But-”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Xp6APlDQ5
Izuku: “Don’t go easy on Kiri. Think of it like how Fubuki fought me. This will help us become even better heroes.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkI6OgVpjeP
Kiri: “Are you… sure?”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsCltrlnj3p
Izuku: “Yes! Even if we’re on opposite sides now, we’ll still be together, improving as heroes.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzGPHjt2to
Kiri: “… Nh.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcKQY3M6Mi
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.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmnY4RN7OXq
If Bakugo’s maddening grin was anything to go by.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfpqSBi3wiF
Jiro: “Okay, that’s all good and all. But what should the Civilians be doing?”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWbP6X0TaE
Civilians: Jiro, Shoji, Denki, Tokoyami, and Tsuyu
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcP3EsFwAv5
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.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOphmrIK9V
Denki looks to Ida and Kiri before sighing.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxw26BoWFkJ
Denki: “We’re doomed.”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4NuWjQG5rx
All Might: “Go to your assigned areas in the city my young heroes! When you see the flare, the trial will begin!”
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiOK0cQqTK
Izuku takes a deep breath before taking a step towards his first major battle.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLzifG8LXp
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2tlPMCbDL
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.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRO3QWeuRtT
I’ll focus on this since it’s what the people want.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiSTQTse8Z
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.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGP3a8aAhg
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.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXL7mbGS59P
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.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUjxVdYIiJD
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.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhyxCzN0dp
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.
19Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQExMA7jGeH
Until next time.
