Making plans, some unintentional advice, and running into trouble.

As Izuku and Mina were waiting for the green light to go into the building, Izuku looked at Mina, and asked, "So, your Quirk allows you to produce some kind of liquid, right?" he asked, remembering seeing a few instances of her doing just that during the Apprehension Test.

"Acid, to be specific," Mina answered with a grin. "I can produce all kinds of it, with varying PH levels, so I can make mostly harmless ones too!"

"That's good, and I take it you can make slippery ones, given that you used them to skate across the field during the fifty meter dash?" Izuku nodded thoughtfully.

"Pretty much, yeah! No need to explain your Quirk, I was one of those listening when one of your girlfriends was asking about it. Surprised you got into a relationship without having told her about it already!" Mina laughed.

"...it never came up," Izuku could only respond feebly. "And I admit, I was embarrassed to admit I was essentially Quirkless, so I was hesitant to bring it up."

"Understandable I guess, but secrets like that are kind of bad for relationships," Mina shrugged.

Izuku paused, considering her words. She wasn't wrong, though his secret regarding his Quirk ran even deeper than that. He wanted to be honest with them, but it wasn't fully his secret... But even so...

He pushed his reflection aside for now. They had a match to win, and he began explaining his plan to Mina.

...

Several minutes later, they headed in, Mina leading the way. Izuku caught himself gazing at her butt a couple of times. Her costume did her posterior quite the favor. He tore his gaze away each time he caught himself as they moved through the building.

"There you are, Deku!" Bakugo's voice roared, an explosion headed their way. Izuku immediately grabbed Mina, channeling two percent of One For All, and leapt away as fast as he could, carrying her bridal style. He managed to avoid the worst of the blast, only receiving a few small cuts from shrapnel.

"...as expected, Kaachan came right for me, and left Iida to guard the bomb," Izuku muttered to Mina as he set her down. "Remember the plan, I'll keep him occupied."

Mina nodded, and immediately scated off on her acid as Bakugo stalked towards Izuku, ignoring her.
