Tenya and Ochako were sitting quietly together. Maybe he should ask how their times in the rooms went... if it's not too awkward. Who were they even paired up with anyway?

Izuku's eye caught sight of his two best friends among his classmates, sitting silently in their usual spot. The normally upbeat Ochako, who would happily be engaged in talking at Iida any other day. But she was quiet, poking at her food, the permanent blush on her cheeks quite darker than their normal pink color.

Tenya, on the other hand, was even more stiff than usual. The already robotic young man was eating as though he were a machine working an assembly line. His line of sight was forward, without paying attention to what he put into his mouth as he accidentally caught his napkin with his chopsticks and nearly ate it.

Oh boy, they don't seem to be taking the class all that well. Izuku felt for them. He'd been so, so embarrassed when he first started his job. He thought he'd never be able to stop blushing. And while he wasn't certain that they had even gotten as far as full on nudity (And more sure they hadn't) it was still something that neither teen would have been ready for.

"Hey you two." Izuku sat his tray down next to Uraraka, across from Tenya. Uraraka jumped a bit, not even noticing he walked up to them. Iida, however, was at least able to stiffly nod in his direction, having seen him coming. "Are... are you two okay?"

"Oh... Hi, Deku." Ochaco tried to give him a shaky smile, but it just didn't have her usual energy to it. "Right as rain, don't worry about me." She gave a small bit of laughter that was so obviously **** it hurt.

"Hello, Midoriya." Like his body, Tenya's voice was stiff and unusually quiet. "I am fine, thank you."

He says that, but his glasses are fogging up and his face is made of stone... Izuku thought.

"If you say so..." He said, starting in on his food slowly. Beyond that, the group was silent for a time, each person focusing on the food. Izuku was thinking of how to approach the obvious problem. He eventually just decided to go for the blunt approach. It would push through it faster, if not as easily as he would like. "Man, that was not what I was expecting today..." He broached, sounding uneasy himself though more out of caution for how they would take his words than any embarrassment he felt which was, after all he'd experienced, minimal.

"W-w-what?" Uraraka put her bowl of rice down a little hard, her round face turning as red as a tomato as she held her face in her hands. "What is Ms. Kayama thinking?"

"I agree." Tenya nodded, adjusting his glasses which he still couldn't see through. "Even if we are a target for villains, this is not something we should be learning just yet. Though I do not doubt either Ms. Kayama or the principal of our school are doing this for our own good, it's just not proper or reasonable to push this on us so suddenly."

"Well, I can actually see their point." Izuku put his food down, digging into his pack for another notebook. "It's like Ms. Kayama said. Rookie heroes most often fall to Seduction or Sex Appeal, one way or the other, compared to other forms of attack."

He began drawing up a list of information. Names, dates, various methods of take downs and the ways the heroes were taken down. "See, if you break down just the last two months, we can see that at least eight rookies, that is heroes who have been working for less than three years, have been taken out of the hero business for good." He showed the two of them the page of information. "Wave-breaker, taken down the day of the entrance exam. He was lucky enough to live and get out physically unscathed, but heroes who end up getting captured to the point they themselves need rescue because they can't control their sex drives and let the villain escape aren't trusted enough by the public to survive." He pointed down, to the next name. "Ripple, a heroine, was brought down by a female villain and had one of her eyes gouged out because she couldn't react in time to the villainess's quirk. She said it was because she was too scandalized by the villain's clothing getting destroyed in the chase before Ripple cornered her and noticed."

He pointed to one more name, though there were still five after it. "And lastly, we have the **** of Pole, the gymnast hero. He died because he didn't know that the woman he was seeing was actually a wanted serial killer in disguise." Izuku shook his head sadly. "Thankfully she was caught at the scene of the ****, but it's still tragic what happened."

Bringing the book back, Izuku began to write some more. "And if we expand the time frame to just this last year alone, and tally up the amount of Rookie heroes just in Tokyo prefecture who have left the hero career one way or another, it comes up to..." Izuku slid the notebook over to them, letting them read what he wrote.

"Fifty five heroes, with over thirty eight percent caught by sex appeal or seduction. So at least twenty one heroes who aren't around anymore." Izuku stressed to them. "That's our entire class plus one, gone in one year. And that's if all of us graduate, too."

Pulling back the notebook, he looked at each of his friends with a graveness he didn't usually feel. "So I can honestly see why they're doing this, even if it is a bit early or some of us aren't suited for it for whatever reason." Izuku said, shaking his head. "Ms. Kayama even said that most of us wouldn't ever really learn to deal with those lessons. For example, Iida." Izuku pointed at the bespectacled boy. "You're really nice, too nice and proper to ever think of looking at a woman naked unless you were dating, right?"

"T-that..." Iida seemed to turn a bit red before sighing. "Indeed. It would be shameful for me to look at a woman's body without being in a committed relationship. Even if that woman were a villain, she's still human and deserves basic decency."

"And Ochaco," Izuku continued, turning his attention to his female friend who was blushing even redder, head laying on the table. "Sorry to ask, but would you be able to continue with hero work if your outfit was damaged in rather revealing places on the field?"

"No..." The girl groaned out in pure embarrassment.

"And that's why they're making us take these classes, even if we don't really 'pass' them." Izuku concluded, putting his notebook away and returning to his food. "It's embarrassing, it's gonna make things tense in class, but it's better done earlier when we know we have targets on all our backs from villains rather than hold off on it till the middle of next year."

"I understand, but..." Iida just shook his head. "How are you so calm about this, Midoriya?"

"Yeah," Ochaco raised her head to look at him with a pouting glare. "Ms. Midnight sent you and Kasumi out of the room first. But you're the last one here, and Kasumi never showed up! What happened?"

"Oh..." Izuku shrugged. "There was a bit of silence, and then I tried talking to her. She got mad and attacked. It kinda got crazy from there." Izuku plucked at his shirt, avoiding looking at them as he gave a lie of omission. He still hated lying, but they really didn't need to know about anything else, and Kasumi would **** him for ever hinting at anything. "I actually had to get a new uniform. The old one got burnt off. We dropped by Recovery girl, but she had to stay a while longer."

"I suspect that she's going to be serving some kind of punishment for attacking you outside an approved spar or heroics class, then." Iida nodded to himself, deciding it was the most logical course of events.

Izuku said nothing, continuing to eat slowly.

"Well, I ended up being paired with Denki." Ochaco groaned. "Even though he's nowhere bad as Mineta, he still made some embarrassing comments. I barely got my shoes off before he made a creepy comment."

"I was paired up with Aoyama." Iida blushed harder. "He was very insistent that I 'gaze upon beauty incarnate.'" He hung his head. "I just ended up standing in a corner of the room to avoid him making a spectacle of himself."

"Aoyama does seem like the kinda guy who loves attention, no matter what, doesn't he?" Izuku tried to joke, reaching over to pat Iida's shoulder. "If you guys want to talk about the lessons, I'm pretty sure Ms. Kayama would be more than happy to listen. I'm willing to listen too, if you want, but I'm probably not the best one to ask."

"But you seem to have a good grasp on everything else, Deku." Ochaco grumbled, poking the boy's face with a pout. "And you were the only one who either had the guts or the knowledge to answer Ms. Kayama's question... and then there was what she did to you in class..." She trailed off, her blush so intense she was actually getting dizzy.

"Yes... You do have an amazing mental fortitude, Midoriya." Iida said, pointedly ignoring how he felt about that event. "It only strengthens my belief that you are truly an exemplary hero student, if you were able to not only withstand Ms. Kayama's quirk, but also her method of example!"

"Um... Actually, it was really hard-TOUGH, I meant tough." Izuku actually felt a blush creep up on his face at the double entendre he made. "I was not expecting that at all. It caught me by surprise just like everyone else."

"Midoriya, do not be so humble!" Iida finally made his first chopping motion with his arms as he berated Izuku lightly. "It taking you by surprise only makes it more amazing, because You would have only had a split second to get your urges under control! That speaks highly of your character as both a man and a hero!"

"Iida, please." Izuku blushed a bit more, not used to praise from people his age. It was one thing to have teachers or loved ones praise you, His Girls fulfilling both roles at times, but he'd never seen himself being any kind of example among his peers. "You're acting like I'm some example of how to act in those kinda situations. I froze up too, you know."

"You kinda are, Deku." Uraraka pointed at him with her chopsticks. "You may have froze up, but after that you were calm enough to not freak out when Ms. Kayama... did what she did. You also didn't... you know..." The girl blushed as she stuck a finger straight up discreetly. "That had to be tough to do, especially since Ms. Kayama is who she is. You even held your breath for as long as it took her to let you go, that can't have been an easy thing to do either!"

"Fine... I get it." Izuku shook his head, trying to clear the blush from his cheeks as he finished his food. "If you really want to talk to me about this lesson, I'll help as best I can. Might as well tell the rest of the class that too."
