Joining the @fanfictionfesta with a silly one-shot I wrote in September last year. It's a 2k, fluffy, love-at-first-sight, romantic comedy with Monoma Neito and Intelli Saiko.

Passing on the fun and tagging @kagiura-akira and @chromyrose to share something of theirs that they want a little extra love given to 💖 (check out how to on the festa blog!)
#THEY DESERVE MORE THAN A YEH #Kaminari is a bundle of energy and nerves and Monoma matches that energy ten fold #these boys go to the arcade and dominate the games laughing out of control until they're asked to leave #and they DON'T because they just SNEAK BACK IN #I love them your honor
-
#They deserve each other in all of their social awkwardness#They will text each other the exact same meme that they saw that morning and giggle in class as they sneak their phone out to look#They see a billboard and point at it making the same awful joke about the advertisement and then jinx one another 3 times in a row#Their brainwaves have synched#VOTE FOR MY BOIS
Monoma Neito/Intelli Saiko
think about them strategizing together against Class A. Yaoyorozu would have an heart attack.
they're both so fancy! the Seiai girls would tease Saiko about having such a gentleman call her 'his lady'
oooh, she'd find him SO infuriating, because he's so unpredictable! but it's also so fascinating... why can't she get him out of her head? UGH.
Would really love to know what the "different teas have different effects on her intelligence" thing means specifically. Like, does she get different skill sets? Does she get better at X subject than Y? How does that affect the caffeine theory?
I'm going to be writing her for QDiW, this is kinda something I need to know!
From the wikipedia page on Intelligence (emphasis mine)
Intelligence has been defined in many ways: the capacity for abstraction, logic, understanding, self-awareness, learning, emotional knowledge, reasoning, planning, creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving. It can be described as the ability to perceive or infer information; and to retain it as knowledge to be applied to adaptive behaviors within an environment or context
Presumably, different teas make her better at differnet skills relating to intelligence. One blend might make her more creative, while another makes her more self-aware, while another gives her a better grasp on logic, for example.
📚Classmate 9/30 of Sakakibara University’s Heroics 101 Course: you’ve met her if you’ve seen the show, but may I reintroduce Saiko Intelli! She has a Quirk that makes her a heck of a genius, and uses it to assist and support her own allies. 🧠🧐 She’s one of the early graduates and is heading off to Tenko and Deku’s class this year!
Here’s a fic I’ve been working on for a short while. I figured that I definitely needed to post something so... yeah? Here you go...?
Enjoy the fic, guys!
And as always, feedback will always be appreciated!

A Lesson and Progress:
Saiko stared at the ceiling of the nurse’s office.
She failed.
But she didn’t really fail. She passed the exam. But for some reason, she felt a heavy weight in her chest.
She was... disappointed, some would say.
Her friends had already begun preparing for summer vacation - some were traveling, yet others were spending time with their families in their hometowns...
But Saiko was...
Well, what was she doing? She was still sulking around like a failure.
She slowly lifted herself up - not wanting her injuries to worsen with sudden movements. The combat she had done was too much for her to handle on the day of that exam, and she regretted not practising before.
She looked at herself in a mirror with shame - her hair was a huge mess and heavy bags hung from under her eyes. Who would bother to look at that?
Suddenly, the door opened.
"Get back in bed, Tea-Brain."
It was Ataru.
"You of all people I really didn't expect to see." Saiko quickly brushed off her sad expression. "Neither did I want to see you."
"Ha-ha, very funny." Ataru shot, sarcastically, "now get back in bed."
"No."
"I wasn't asking. Now do it."
Saiko huffed and sat on the bed again, "for the record-"
A brown bag was suddenly stuffed in her face. "Here," interupted Ataru.
"Excuse me?" Saiko took the bag and glared at her classmate. "Am I some sort of bag-holder to you?"
"I mean, it would be pretty useful if you were."
Saiko blinked.
"It's for you."
She blinked again. "Me?"
"Yes, you. Who else would it be for?"
Saiko held back an excited smile. "What's in it?"
"Why don't you open it and find out?" Ataru took a seat next to Saiko on the bed. Saiko paused.
"Is this some sort of trick?"
"For crying out loud, you nerd - just open it."
Saiko unraveled the bag and held it open.
"Tea?"
She tried to hold back her excitement.
"Yeah."
She hurriedly took the tea box out of the bag.
"You got me..." she paused and shook the box. "There's... nothing in here..."
"You sure?"
Saiko shot a glare at Ataru again. "You think this is funny?"
"Kinda," smirked Ataru.
"Well it's not."
"Just open the box, okay?"
Saiko rolled her eyes, "fine." She opened the box, and took out a small piece of folded paper.
"Really?"
"Oh, come on. You didn't even read what's on it."
Saiko sighed and opened the paper, carefully reading what was on it.
"What does it say?" Asked Ataru, who showed no genuine interest in the note whatsoever.
"It says to open the door."
"Then do it."
Saiko slowly stood from the bed, then turned around to Ataru. "If this is some kind of prank, I'll make everyone hate you." She said coldly.
"Eh, they already do."
Saiko approached the door cautiously and opened it.
"Surprise!"
Everyone in the exam - everyone that was with her - they were all there.
Tomomi, Setsuka, Chihiro - all of them.
"What... what..." Saiko was surprised, needless to say.
"We all came to visit you!" Smiled Kosa, "how are you feeling?"
All of them leaned in to listen to Saiko's response.
"B... better?"
They all grinned happily. Suddenly, Saiko was nudged in the shoulder. She turned around to see Ataru holding another tea box.
"Here."
Saiko took the box and opened it, expecting another note.
She smiled greatly, "it's tea! Thank you!"
"Sure."
She pulled in Ataru for a big hug, but got pushed away shortly after.
"Yeah, yeah. Don't get too close." Ataru warned, hiding the red blush on her face. Saiko smiled brightly at all of them.
"Thank you, all. This really made my day." Thanked Saiko. All of her classmates smiled joyfully.
They began to crowd her, each one giving her a hug or telling her stories about what happened while she was gone.
"Okay, guys, give the girl some space.”
They all stepped back, and after a short few minutes, Saiko went back into the nurse’s office again.
She shut the door behind her, clutching the tea box with both of her hands; a warm feeling of appreciation and gratitude outshone the previous feeling of disappointing.
Saiko smiled to herself, then set the tea box down on the bedside table and laid back down on the bed.
I have such wonderful friends...

I need to get back into writing - I’m losing my touch (lol)
I know nothing about Intelli Saiko I just kno that this obscure art of obscure character/UTAU Soune Taya from 2012 strangely has the same pose and expression as this screenshot of her
