Q: Beyond the bedroom, how open are you and your SO/SOs with your affection? With everything else in general?

"How open are with our affections beyond the bedroom, and with everything else?" Izuku rolled that question around in his head for a moment. "I mean, in public we have to act like we don't know each other if we see each other for the most part. But in private, but not PRIVATE-private, it's kinda a mixed bag. And secrets..."

Well, it's variable how some of us like to express our emotions beyond the bedroom, but we're all pretty open about how we feel, otherwise none of this would work. Some of the girls may heckle others or get on each others nerves now and then, but in the end everyone knows where the boundaries lay. After this long, it was a given. In this big of a relationship that has to be kept secret for obvious reasons, it's important that there's no secrets that can be used against us, be it to hurt us or divide us. Beyond secrets, The girls are pretty open in their desires for sexual actions, and have no problems with groping or anything else like that, though again it's different with what they prefer. Everyone in the relationship knows they go to pretty much anyone and talk, or vent, or things like that. All these steps help make this ridiculously large relationship run smoothly.

Izuku sat back, the recent memory of agonizing over telling them about One for All suddenly striking him once more. It was, rather hard for him to do that. Especially since All Might had entrusted him the secret of the nearly all powerful quirk along with carrying it beyond what All Might himself could continue to do. It felt like a betrayal of the greatest hero in the world, Izuku's idol for as long as he could remember.

But he couldn't. He couldn't hide such a big secret, especially after the Entrance Exam incident where three of his four limbs were nearly rendered useless if it weren't for Chiyo, Musei and his own quirk. It helped that Chiyo, Musei and Nemuri could back him up, seeing as the former had known the man for decades and the latter two were his co-workers and were themselves only recently let in on the secret.

Surprisingly it was Miruko herself who had proved to be the most level-headed in regards to that revelation. Not to say that anyone was specifically mad, but it was kind of one of those secrets that changed your world view, for better or worse.

"So?" The bruiser bunny heroine had snorted when she had heard the explanation. "Pretty fucking cool to have our boyfriend not only the greatest lay in the world and able to handle all of us in a relationship, but all to be recognized by god damned All Might as the next successor as world's greatest hero. And besides, You said All Might has a really bad chest wound that apparently shredded his stomach and one of his lungs, yeah?"

"Y-yeah. That's right. It's about, here," Izuku had told her, pointing to himself and drawing a circle on his chest. "It's about this big around, and the skin it pulled tight and is held together by some really strong sutures. It's really not a good sight to see." Izuku put his shirt down, looking at the rabbit heroine, along with Haruno (Amplifier,) Yuu (Mt Lady,) Tsuuchi (Uwabami) and Miwan (Sirius) for this first round of explaining.

"Ouch." Haruno winced, rubbing her stomach and chest. "And that happened five years ago? That's seriously messed up. Who could do that to All Might of all people?"

"It must have been a rather fearsome villain." Miwan said, a scowl on her usually smiling face. "And I take it All Might took steps to make sure this fight never became known?"

"Oh, you can bet your ears he did." Chiyo shook her head, leaning back on the coach. "I've been taking care of the fool since then. Heck, I'm one of the people who helped put him back together, so I can tell you the exact details. But I won't, there's still doctor patient confidentiality there. But I've been telling the big meat head to take it easy since that happened, but no one ever listens to their doctor. Especially not gung-ho musclebound buffoons."

"Geez, I wonder what happened to the villain." Yuu shivered, leaning into Haruno, who took returned the favor so they could take comfort in the sensation they weren't alone in feeling so fearful. "Sounds like it was an all out fight, to the **** brawl or something."

"Oh, it was. We think All Might may have vaporized the villain when he barely dodged a fatal strike, the one that gave him his wound." Chiyo told them. "You all should know well that All Might's made it part of his policy to never kill unless there was absolutely ****. Over the course of his career, there have only been three deaths that he could possibly have been responsible for, and two of those you can still rule as suicides. If this villain is well and truly dead, it would be the fourth... if you can count putting down an absolute monster down as killing, rather than slaying."

"That's... my god, that's horrible." Tsuuchi shook her head. "And he's been going strong even after receiving a wound that would put anyone else out of commission? For half a decade?"

"Apparently." Nemuri sighed, running a hand along her forehead. "And from working with the guy, I can tell he won't stop until he's dead, even if he can't do anything but stand his ground. It kinda makes him all the more incredible, really."

"And yet, he's chosen Green bean here to take his place?" The bunny heroine was looking at Izuku, eyebrow raised. "Some boy who until ten months ago had never so much as trained a day in his life, thought he was quirkless up until just a few months ago... and yet still threw himself at a hostage situation that he had no hope of coming out alive from, one that other pros in the area couldn't handle because they couldn't figure out how to pull someone out of a living snot man despite being only sludge when they had both Backdraft to dilute him AND **** arms to punch through the then diluted sludge to the victim who was being suffocated right in front of them... and not only came out alive, but impressed All Might enough to train you personally and name you his successor?"

In a blink, the brown-skinned woman had bounced up from her seat, launching herself at Izuku before wrapping her arms around him and almost headbutting him from the **** of her kiss.

When she pulled away, the vicious smile on her face almost made Izuku forget her panting, the blush on her cheeks or the smouldering look in her eyes.

"Hot damn, Green bean. If I thought you weren't a fine catch before, you'd certainly be my target after learning about that." Rumi pulled Izuku tightly to her chest. "To be able to do all that, when the world was against you in every way possible, that takes fire and will that I don't see often. It's kinda weak that you needed that kind of kick in the ass to do it, but hey, everyone's gotta get started somewhere." Letting the greenette go, making him stumble back.

"You know, I thought you were going to be the least impressed by all this." Izuku said, looking at Rumi with a confused expression. "It's well known you don't like teaming up in heroics, after all, and considering what both my quirk and One for All are, well..."

"Hey." She rapped her knuckles on his head, her voice a little softer than her usual rough tone. "Can't fault you for your quirk, one that you didn't even know of until recently. Quirks are kinda bullshit like that at times, but it makes our lives a lot better that you have it so I'm not gonna complain. As for One for All, it's not so much as relying on other people as it is taking up the duty they gave you. They're dead, except for All Might, and they're not influencing your decisions, are they?"

"N-no?" Izuku looked a little lost. "At least, I don't think so?"

"Cool, then it's you, using your power, that you basically got as an inheritance that had a secret test of character or something." Rumi finished. "Or you were hired for a job, and that job's kinda keeping this world from going to shit because there are a lot of super powered motherfuckers that need ass whoopings, and we can't do it all by ourselves." Rumi nodded, tapping her foot rapidly. "Much as I hate to admit it, the status quo is a slow slide into chaos. Maybe not today, hell maybe not even ten years, but unless someone, at least one person, can be the next All Might or better, once he kicks it villains are going to have a resurgence that we can't handle. And it looks like You're the one All Might saw the most potential in, kid."

The room was silent for moments, everyone just looking at the rabbit heroine. The silence grew awkward and Rumi's brow and ears were twitching madly.

"WHAT?" SHe shouted. "Why the fuck are you all looking at me like that?"

"Oh, nothing." Yuu said, hiding her mouth behind her hand as she glance away. "I just never figured that the heroine who hates teaming up for anything would be able to give such an inspirational speech."

"You wanna go, Mt. Bimbo?" Rumi roared, leaning over the blond Heroine as Haruno leaned away for her own safety. "I think I remember a promise to drop kick your ass next time I saw you, so come on! I'll say whatever I think, no matter what that is!"

"H-hey now. Rumi!" Izuku **** himself between the two heroines, much to Rumi's frustrations and Yuu's thankfulness. "Come on, it's a compliment and you know it." He gave a shaky grin. "And... thanks. I kinda needed you to say that. It's been eating away at me for a while, how I couldn't tell you girls about One for All and being All Might's successor. But after nearly exploding my arms and legs at the entrance exam, I thought I should be able to get that off my chest. My last big secret, I guess. SO, thanks, all of you." Izuku said, looking around the room with his eyes already to burst into tears.

Rumi looked down at Izuku with her intense gaze, searching him for something only she knew to look for. "You're so emotional, Green Bean." SHe bluntly stated, but smirked. "But at least you wear your heart on your sleeve. One of the things I like about you the most. Can't lie to anyone about anything. Come on, we're going to go spar or something. Maybe head out to the pussycats home so we won't be interrupted."

The spar ended up leading to lots of sex afterwards with everyone in that first group out in the mountains

After that encouragement from the blunt heroine, Izuku found it easier to explain to the rest of the heroines, though there was a period of time where everyone had to adjust to the new found knowledge.<br></br>

Meanwhile, Izuku talked to All Might regarding the whole ordeal.
<br></br><br></br>"So... Well, that's a lot of people now in the know." All Might said, his voice grave and stern. "I can't say I approve, Midoriya. There's a lot of risk involved with I don't even know how many women knowing about it. You really shouldn't be giving away such information so easily, you know."
<br></br><br></br>
"I-I know. But i-it wasn't an e-easy decision to-to make." Izuku stuttered in front of his disapproving mentor and Idol before taking a calming breath.. "I've... been wanting to tell them for a while now, at least about you teaching me. And after the entrance exam, I figured it was best to say something now than to regret it later." Izuku started scratching his arm in both timidity and thought. "Besides, I know I can trust them. They're all heroes, and they haven't lied to me about anything. So... I couldn't either."<br></br><br></br>"Hmm..." All Might was silent, scrutinizing Izuku while in his imposing muscle form. He was not smiling, which was terrifying in its own way. All Might was always smiling.<br></br><br></br>"A-and besides, I think they needed to know, in case I learn how to give them energy from my quirk!" Izuku brought up one of the other important reasons he had told all the girls who weren't already in the know. "What if it doesn't just give them something from my quirk's stock of energy, but some super charged energy from One for All too? They'd probably end up hurting themselves really badly if they suddenly got a One for All boost, and if that super charged their quirks like you say it did for all the others before you, it would be a disaster. And as a Hero, I can't allow that to happen!"<br></br><br></br>
All Might stayed silent longer, as Izuku locked eyes with him, the plea for understanding obvious. As Rumi had said, he wore his heart on his sleeve.<br></br><br></br>
"HA HA HA HA!" The blond Mountain of a man bellowed, clapping his hands onto Izuku's shoulders in a burst of speed and strength. "THERE'S THAT FIRE THAT I SAW TEN MONTHS AGO! THERE'S THAT WILL TO DO WHAT'S RIGHT I CHOSE YOU FOR, YOUNG MIDORIYA!" Blood seeped out from between teeth clenched in a smile so tight Izuku could hear them creaking. "Your reasons are perfectly valid, though I still have my reservations regarding so many people suddenly in the know. But, it is no longer my place to dictate who can or cannot know about One for All. That's your job now, Midoriya. I can only hope your faith is not misplaced, even if those you told are my colleagues and your paramours besides. The more windows in a vault, the easier it is to break in and all that." All Might stood back, letting go of his remnants of One for All and deflating. "Who knows. Maybe you'll do better with a support network like yours better than I ever did as a lone pillar."<br></br><br></br>Izuku didn't know what to say in regards to his teacher's sudden melancholy, so said nothing as they watched the sun set into the ocean on the beach that Izuku had painstakingly cleaned not too long ago.

Izuku wiped some tears from his face, smiling a watery smile. He'd made a lot of happy memories in this last year, hadn't he?
