Prologue in the image, and the first tiny chapter starts like this:

“The first time Tina had, unintentionally, made explicit that her interest in Newt extended beyond his intellect and compassion—(beyond the way he would cup his hands about her face when he leaned in for a chaste kiss)—Newt had nearly punched her.”

I think this will be a fun ride.

Once I post it, I’ll only be updating infrequently as this is just a silly little thing, and I’d like to be able to make progress on finishing two short fics and continuing my longer one. But this one is just meant to be funny and I hope other people will enjoy it, too. ^_^

Sneak peak of Bakugou’s chapter from my SI!Fem!Izuku fic

"So, what's wrong with you?" Bakugou Katsuki demanded of his green-haired friend, en lieu of a greeting. "The old hag said you missed yesterday 'cause you were going to some fancy quirk doc?"

From her assigned homeroom seat in front of his, Midoriya Uguisu smiled up at him in greeting, then frowned as his question registered.

"There's nothing wrong with me, Kacchan," she retorted in an offended tone. "But the doctor confirmed I won't be developing a quirk." Which - what?! Katsuki reflexively let out sharp blasts from the palms of his hand.

"How's that nothing wrong with you? The doctor just said you're quirkless! That's as good as useless!" For a moment, alarm bells rang in Katsuki's head as Isu-chan's green eyes glinted, as if a dangerous flame ignited behind her eyes. The moment passed, it was only - apparently quirkless, useless - Uguisu scowling back at him.

"Only if you're - what d'you like to call them? - an 'extra', once the news gets out." she drawled, waved a hand airily at the rest of the classroom, not even deigning to heed Katsuki's warning explosion. She did NOT just lump him with those losers! "I bet that's what they're all going to say when Korra-sensei announces the news. But you know..." here her voice turned thoughtful, and however incensed Katsuki was at Uguisu's insult, he quieted. Uguisu did her creepy muttering everywhere - Auntie Inko claimed Isu-chan got it from her father, whom Katsuki had never met - but Katsuki was the only kid to whom she spoke with that particular tone. He couldn't help but feel special, though you'd never get him to admit it to anyone, ever. Anyone who'd accuse him of it will get exploded, even you, old hag! Isu knew he was above those Extras, that's all.

That didn't mean he was any more patient with Isu's waffling.

"Get on with it," he commanded, setting off his quirk once again. Isu grinned this time, the drama-queen; but did get on with it, so Katsuki forewent another explosion.

"The quirk specialist who examined me, his quirk just made his hair change colour with his mood. Fun to watch - I can see why he'll be a popular doctor for little kids - but even he admitted it didn't help him any through medical school. Kacchan - he actually admitted to being wrong," Isu confided wonderingly. Katsuki was suitably impressed - not even his dad liked to admit to a mistake in front of Katsuki. His old hag certainly never did, even if she made it up to him anyway. Only Auntie Inko has ever outright stated  she'd been wrong to Isu and Katsuki, but she also cried at a drop of a hat.

"So moody-hair doc has the stones to say he was wrong," he snorted dismissively. He had a reputation to uphold, after all. "What does that have to do with anything?"

"Well, how would his quirk have helped with medical school? Or his medical practice?" Isu questioned back, making Katsuki pause in sudden understanding. Mood Hair had jack sh** to do with treating anybody. Isu nodded, and opened her mouth, but Korro-sensei came in for homeroom before he and Isu could finish their conversation. Yet he mentally turned that realization over in his mind, even as the Extras reacted exactly as Isu had predicted to the announcement that Isu was quirkless. Isu merely rolled her eyes as the Extras started talking sh**, Korro-sensei turning a blind eye to it all.

"I'd only be 'good as useless'," Isu confirmed the conclusion he finally came to, as they walked home from school at afternoon, "if I become silly enough to buy-in to what the 'Extras' say." And, as far as Katsuki was concerned, that was that. His best friend - not that he'd admit to THAT either - wasn't baka enough to fall to those levels. Katsuki would blow her up himself if she ever became that way.
