We all adjusted quickly to life in the dorms which was a good thing since we would have to see each other every day. I woke up and brushed my hair and went through with my morning routine. I left my uniform jacket on my desk chair and walked out of my dorm locking the door behind me and slipping the key into my pocket. "Good morning Iris!" I hear Mina's voice say. "Mornin'!" I smile as she walks over and puts an arm over my shoulder. "It's a good thing that no one on our floor is up this early so we can actually interact like a couple..." Mina says as we walk to the elevator. 

"Wow already using the couple word that's bold." I smirk and her as she presses the first-floor button. "Well, we are aren't we?" She asks moving her arm off my shoulder as we walk into the elevator. "Yes!" I smile. The elevator comes to the first floor and we walk off. "Hey, Mina! Iris!" Ochaco's peppy voice says. We both turn to see my chocolate-haired friend leaving her room. "Morning Ochaco!" I smile waving to her as she walks over to us. There weren't many people in the common room area it was just Jiro, Momo, Iida, and Toru. "It's so much fun being able to see each other so often don't you think?" Ochaco pipes. "Yeah, we can just knock on a door to see a friend." Mina smiles. 

"Hey, guys!" Jiro waves at us. We sit at the table and talk for a while before we all eat breakfast and walk out to the main building. We entered the class and all took our seats. A little later Mr. Aizawa enters the room. "Good morning class..." He says. "Good morning Sensei." The class responds. "Today we will be discussing Ultimate Moves. These are something a hero does when they go Plus Ultra and stuff with their quirk. They typically only use them once as most of the time they use up most of their quirk's power. Today you all will be coming up with them and ways to improve your hero costumes as you have coming up exams." He says. Ricky has told me about these before!

He has about three Multi Madness, All Out, and Full Throttle. Multi Madness is when he uses more than 2 quirks at once typically about 4, All Out is when he uses about 10 different quirks, and Full Throttle is when he uses 20. The last one he uses less since it takes a lot of energy. He has also made adjustments to his hero costume before including changing the whole design and style which they let him do in his second year at UA. "Now get changed quickly and meet in training ground beta..." Our teacher says opening the wall that has our costumes. I grab mine and walk with the girls to the changing room. I put mine on and put on the jacket. I tie the capture ribbons around my horns and put my paper and pencils in my belt.

"Hey, can you help me with this?" Mina asks walking my way. She needed help zipping the back of the bodysuit of her costume. "Yeah sure." I smile. I zip it up for her and give her a small hug from the back. "The pattern of your bodysuit...why'd you pick this one?" I ask letting her go. "It reminded me of acid so I picked this one! I also asked for something colorful and they gave me this!" She smiles. We all walk out and meet at the training ground. Inside were Mr. Aizawa, Cementos, Ectoplasm, and Midnight. "Here to help you all with your Ultimate Moves are Midnight, Ectoplasm, and Cementos." Mr. Aizawa says. 

"I will work with you all personally to test your quirks and help you edit your ideas." Ectoplasm says. "I will help create the perfect area to train." Cementos adds. "And I will also help you all personally." Midnight says. I wanted to try and get to use my sleep part of my quirk more and not rely so much on my Animate. "What did you have in mind for your super move?" Ectoplasm asks me. "I don't know really I want to try and use my sleep power a little more than my Animate since I rely on it so much." I answer. "Your brother, Ricky Cotton, he's a third-year correct?" He asks. "Correct sir." I answer. "He did the same thing when he was working on ultimate moves but he learned what he wanted to do and how and I believe you can too." He says.

"Tell me more about your quirks..." He says. "Well my Animate allows me to draw anything and control it and my Sheep allows me to do anything a sheep can and I can put someone to sleep with a lullaby but the longer I have them asleep the less energy I have..." I answer. "And you want to try and use your sleep more correct?" Ectoplasm asks. "Correct..." I answer. "How much do you use your sleep when you fight or train?" He asks. "Um, not that much maybe two times or once." I answer. "Can it only work if you sing?" He asks. "I think so but I haven't tried any other way because that's what happened when my sleep manifested...I was humming and sent my brother to sleep." I say.

"Try using your Animate to draw an animal and then try saying the word sleep and see if that works..." He says. I make a cat and say the word sleep and it falls asleep. "Now how do you think you could use that in a fight or use it to put multiple people to sleep at once?" Ectoplasm asks. "I guess I could think of a way to project my voice to use it..." I say. "That is a good idea...take that to mind and think of a way you could make a support item for your costume...in the meantime let's make up an ultimate move for your Animate." He says. "It has to have a name that is easy to say out loud right?" I ask. "That is correct! It must be something easy to remember and to say when you use the ultimate move." He answers.

"I want to try something like making multiple mini creations at once to attack and another one is to make a giant one or multiple big ones to use..for the smaller one I was thinking for a name like Miniature Attack!" I say. "You have the name on point now to try it out...try it on me." He says. I create small mice with Animate and use them to attack my teacher. "That was a great representation of what you had in mind now to work on your other one..." He says. I work on those two ultimate moves and then the class was over. I walk to the design studio before changing out of my costume so I could ask about a voice projecting support item.

When I get there I see Ochaco, Midoriya, and Mei Hatsume who was on top of Midoriya. There was smoke so I was a bit concerned. "Hatsume get off!" Power Loader says to the girl. "Ah, Ms. Cotton I see you've come back...is there something you would like to add to your costume? And I am asking that to you three too." He says looking at Ochaco, Midoriya, and Iida who just got here. "Yes sir, I would like something that could project my voice so I cou-" I say before getting interrupted. "Something to project your voice you say? I got the perfect thing for you!" Hatsume says. "Um...no thanks you did this to me the last time...I'm good." I say. 

"She's weird..." Ochaco whispers to me. "Not weird just a little excited..." I whisper back to her. "Do you have the manual that came with your costumes?" Power Loader asks us. "I do! Here you go sir." I say handing him mine. "You said something to project your voice correct?" He asks. "Yes sir, I would like it to not be too big and showy just simple and that could go with my costume." I say. I discuss what I wanted and then went back to change out of my costume. I put my uniform back on and walked out of the building and back to the dorms. Mina was sitting on a bench outside probably waiting for me.

"You didn't have to wait for me you know that right?" I say sitting next to her. "Yeah, but I had nothing better to do and I wanted to wait for you!" She smiles. She wraps her arms around me in a hug. She was so warm like sitting next to a campfire during winter. "And I can do this." She says letting me go. She gives me a small kiss on the forehead along with a smile. I return the smile and rest my head on her shoulder. The sun was setting which meant it was getting late. we sat there for a little while before it got dark and headed back to the dorms for dinner. I walked back to my room and put my pajamas on before getting a knock on the door.

"Hey, can I come in?" I hear Mina's voice ask. "Sure it's open." I say from my bathroom where I was taking out my earrings. "Just wanted to hang out for a bit! I brought a movie!" She says holding out a DVD case for Howl's Moving Castle a favorite Studio Ghibli movie mine. I gasp before running over and grabbing the case. I look down at it and then look up at Mina. "How did you know? I love this movie!" I say with a bright smile. "Ochaco told me and it's one of my favorites too and I had it in my room so I wanted to watch it with you!" She smiles. "Well lucky for us I have a DVD player on my TV." I say putting my hands on my hips. 

I walk over to my TV and set it in grabbing a blanket for us and moving two bean bags over for us to sit against. "I'm honestly surprised you don't have any snacks in your room..." She says. "Who says I don't?" I say opening a drawer with snacks and drinks in it. "You have strawberry pocky?" She asks. "Strawberry, chocolate, matcha, and cookies n' cream!" I smile holding up the boxes. I hand her the strawberry one and we sit down on the floor in front of my TV as I play the movie. We watched the movie but ended up falling asleep next to each other.
