Sad & Happy

Mineta was enveloped in an aura of absolute happiness. Everyone at UA, especially Class 1-A, could sense it. A gigantic smile followed him everywhere; he skipped from one place to another and was even happily humming a song.

Nothing could disturb his happiness: not the scoldings for being late, not the bad grades, and not even the usual insults from his classmates. The young man could face the worst of criminals without flinching; he was in a state of total grace that no one understood.

The mystery of Mineta's joy lasted the entire day. The girls didn't dare ask him the reason (afraid of the answer).

Yaoyorozu, on the other hand, was in an ocean of sadness. Her usual elegance and poise had vanished that day. Her hair was a mess, with dark circles under her eyes as if she hadn't slept; her head was down most of the time, and a look of shame was etched on her face.

She was light years away from the Momo Yaoyorozu she knew. Her friends were very worried about her, but the young woman said it was just a cold and it would pass soon. The poor girl was in such bad shape that she did terribly in school (something unusual for her); even Mineta got better grades than she did.

None of them could connect these strange changes between the model student and the little pervert.

His new Quirk opened up millions of possibilities!

That was one of Mineta's thoughts that day. Although he didn't sleep much cleaning up the mess from the night before, it was worth it to him. He would clean all of UA if it meant repeating his encounter with Yaoyorozu.

He observed the young woman and deduced that she had returned to normal. He was right about the duration of the Lust Balls, but he needed to gather more information.

He had showered after class and pondered his next move, especially regarding Momo.

Will she tell anyone? Will they get him expelled? It wasn't unlikely, the young man thought. Regarding their steamy encounter, she had willingly made the first move; he hadn't **** or threatened her at any point (except for the Lust Balls), and Yaoyorozu must have been aware of that, judging by her attitude for the rest of the day.

As he was about to leave the bathroom, he was astonished to see none other than Momo Yaoyorozu standing in the doorway.

"Hmm... we... we need to... talk," she said, her voice trembling.
