THE WORLD IN A GIRL

BNHA'S MOMO

❛  —— AH, UM, is it … okay if i sit ?  ❜ 

rena fidgets nervously with the pile of books in her hands. for some reason, the library is filled today and, unfortunately for her, the last table she finds an open seat at is already occupied by the studious girl before her.

“  but  of  course !  ”   she’d never be so rude as to deny another student a place to study.  happily, momo pulls the mountains of books closer to her side, making space on the table for the girl to put her things.  smile polite, she motions to the empty seat.     “  by  all  means.  you are  ...  kurogane--san,  right ?  ”

to think she once shared a class with this boy. to think they once shared the same dream of being a  HERO.   it’s just ash now.  momo’s mouth curls around the taste, her glare at bakugou hateful ,   &  fearful ,   &  pitying ,  too.   oh,  but he could have been so much  MORE.

“  you’ve  well   &   truly  FALLEN,  bakugou.  is  this  all  you’ll  amount  to  now  ?  ”

“  i  know  there’s  no  need  to  be  so  worried,  but  even  so  ...  ”      brows furrowed together, momo sinks further back into the couch  –––  a rare show of laxness, but indicative of the nerves in her stomach.  LOGIC,  she’s learning, doesn’t always outweigh her emotions  &  her concern for their classmates bleeds through.  her gaze slide sideways to kyoka, smile faint.

“  i  can’t  help  but  worry  anyways.  we’ve  all  gone  through  a  lot  together,  but  they  seem  to  have  gone  through  even  more  ...  compared  to  THAT,  i  ...  ”      feel lackluster.  feel like she’s always lagging a step behind, no matter the amount of leaps she makes.

“  oh !  asui--san,  we  still  haven’t  seen  your  room,  have  we ?  ”     the implication hangs in the air, in momo’s wide eyes. after asui's heartfelt comments, momo wants to bridge this gap between them, reach for those fun times, those summer sweet days. above all, she wants to try for FRIENDSHIP  —  earnest, meaningful friendship. this is a step.

momo absolutely creates the other student’s costumes and poses in them in front of her mirror when her door’s locked and bolted and chair is shoved against it so no one can walk in on her

[materigal]

“  i  don’t  mean  to  speak  out  of  turn  but  ...  am  i  the only one feeling  ...  STRANGE,  about  this ?  not  just  the  forest  itself  but ...  ”      momo makes a vague gesture behind them, to the dalish clan they’ve left for the time being, off to fulfill their quests.  

something lingers in the air there. she can practically feel it on her skin, making the hairs rise. makes her tense, makes her feel like she must walk on eggshells without really understanding WHY.   unsafe.  she feels unsafe.

sighing, she turns back to look in front of her, stepping cautiously around vines.       “  those  people.  they  are  ...  SECRETIVE.   in  a  way  i  fear  may  come  to  bite  us.  ”

he was just  .  .  .  coughing like he got punched in the gut by all might.  and now he’s relaxing…back to reading his book.  forgive him,  he’s sick.

momo,  meanwhile,  sits opposite of him with her cup paused at her lips,  eyes like saucers.     “  ...  todoroki,  ”      she starts, softly,      “  would  you  like  some  tea  ?  ”

❛   ah   ,   not really   !   ❜   though nejire says such   ,   she has already plucked the cookie from yaoyorozu’s hands   ,   biting it with pleasant hums   .   it’s a lot better tasting than she expects   !   she may not have the intent of humiliation   ,   but the third year is clearly enjoying it   —   though it isn’t as if she’s denying that   !   ❛   hey hey   ,   listen   .   collie-san   ,   i’m thirsty   !   can you make milk   ?   ❜

momo’s fingers curl around the air when hado swipes the cookie from her.  she has an out of body experience, watching hado eat it.  the cookie  ...  that she made  ...  despite everything.  momo’s body reverts to a simple outline, losing all the detail. her twitching fingers are the only movement.       “  i’m  ...  afraid  not,  hado--san  ...  ”

“ t-thanks momo-chan…. i don’t mean to complicate things or come across as a burden, but i’m just having a difficult time. i guess i just feel… ” unworthy. her classmates, they were honing their abilities and getting stronger. she felt short of exception. as if her position in the heroics course was a waste and anyone else could fill in the space better. yet, giving up was not an option for her either.

“  uraraka--san ...  ”    momo understands collapse  ;  she’s tasted the cracks in her own foundations before.  hearing uraraka talk leaves the same bitter aftertaste  &  she doesn’t know what to do with this.  all she knows is she must do SOMETHING.

the sudden clap of her hands cuts through the air.  there’s a determination on momo’s face that only ever rises when others are in peril.  easier, after all, for a girl of low self worth to be stronger for others.  the confidence has to go somewhere.     “  it  happens,  uraraka--san !  we’re  all  still  learning  here,  still  growing.   i’ve  seen  your  improvement   &   let  me  tell  you  ––––  you’re  FAR  from  a  BURDEN.  please,  try  not  to  let  this  get  to  you.  ”

it isn’t as if it’s her intention to humiliate   ,   but lips curl upward when yaoyorozu’s expression shifts to an extreme embarrassment   .   perhaps enjoyment isn’t the right word for it   —   she’d hate to be misunderstood as some sort of sadist   !   but   …   it is amusing   ,   isn’t it   ?   she really does look like a puppy   !

❛   yes yes   ,   collie-san   .   ❜   nejire makes no promises to cease her teasing   ,   nor does the twinkling in her eye indicate she’ll refer to the girl as her surname   .   alas   ,   that’s simply the type of girl nejire is   —   very few individuals can make her stop her antics   .   much as yaoyorozu may protest   ,   it falls upon deaf ears   .   ❛   hey hey   ,   collie-san   ,   can you do tricks   ?   how about fetch   ?   collie-san   ,   are you listening   ?   fetch me   …   a chocolate chip cookie   !   ❜

it may come to her slowly, but momo does, eventually, catch up on the joke.  in this case  –––  on herself.  her face remains red, but she’s a level more cool headed now, a hand dropping to hang loosely at her chest.  the humiliation still digs, but she’s learning to roll with it.

“ hado--san  ...  i’m  afraid  you’re  making  fun  of  me.  ”

the kick of this ?  her first instinct was to do as hado says  &  conjure up a cookie.

pats her head

momo takes it with as much grace as one can in this situation, head being patted by someone shorter than them.     “  …  this  feels  oddly  patronizing,  somehow  …  ”
