Thanks to Awa's prompt expulsion, the rest of gym passes by without further incident, and Izuku gets to enjoy watching his Junior High School class suffer through Shōta's particular brand of teaching. Not to say that Shōta is harsh as a teacher; he just has higher standards than most, which only seem harsh. "It's almost a waste to have Aizawa-sensei teaching them," he comments quietly to Shōto and Tōya as the class makes its way back to the locker room so they can change back into their school uniforms.
"That's because most of them don't have what it takes to be a hero," Shōto responds quite bluntly and at a volume where almost the entire class can hear him. He receives a few glares for his statement, but none of their classmates seem brave enough to say anything in their defense. Not even Katsuki, who stalks ahead of them with his shoulders hunched and his hands balled into fists at his sides.
"That might be so, otōto, but you don't need to go rubbing it in their faces," Tōya hisses as he leans in close to Shōto. "We're here to make things better for Izuku, not to make it worse for him by running our mouths and antagonizing the entire class."
Shōto blinks at the reprimand and then looks around to find that the students who hadn't glared at him are glaring at Izuku like he had been the one to say it. "Because they already blame him for us being here and replacing their classmates," he acknowledges in a soft voice.
"Not to mention that both of you stated that you're my friends, so there's that too," Izuku adds in a gentle tone. "But, yeah, let's not antagonize them."
Shōto's mouth twists into a frown, but he nods after a few seconds and says, "I will be more mindful of what I say from here on out."
"I sure hope so," Tōya mutters as they file into the changing room and over to Izuku's locker. His gym uniform is definitely beyond saving, and it all but falls apart as he pulls it off.
"You weren't kidding about it being close to falling apart," Izuku murmurs as a few bits flake off of it, and he reaches up to pull a small piece of charred fabric out of Tōya's hair. He rubs it between his fingers, and, unsurprisingly, it crumbles with the slightest bit of friction. At least it's just the uniform that is burnt and not Tōya. "We really need to get you started on increasing your heat tolerance."
"We won't have time for that today," Tōya states as he pulls his borrowed school uniform out of the cramped space in Izuku's locker and proceeds to change into it.
"Won't increasing your heat tolerance help with your Quirk, niisan?" Shōto asks as he pulls his own set of clothes out of Izuku's locker. He doesn't wait for a response to his question as he follows it up with, "Why won't you have time for it?" There's a slight crease to his forehead, and his eyebrows furrow as he gives Tōya an imploring look.
"We have some things that we need to get after school, and with all that we plan to get, there won't be much time for that kind of training," Tōya answers patiently, and he regards Shōto for a few seconds before turning his gaze to Izuku. "He should come with us."
"Yes, he should," Izuku says with a smile that gently curls his mouth, and he grabs his own school uniform to get changed as well. He is more than aware of the glances that their classmates are giving them, especially with him sharing his locker with the both of them, but he ignores them and the looks of disgust that is sent his way. And they are only being directed towards him.
"You're going shopping?" Shōto guesses, even though it comes out more as a question than it does a statement, and Izuku gives a nod while Tōya hums affirmatively in response. "Oh," he says pretty softly, and then, "I'm sure neesan won't mind if I go with you."
"No, Fuyumi wouldn't mind it if you came along, but we'll have to let her know so that she won't worry," Tōya says, the corners of his mouths turning down into a slight frown while his brows furrow, and it is evident that something is on his mind. "Do you have a way to contact her about it now?" Ah, yes, that makes the most sense at the moment.
Izuku focuses on Shōto, who blinks and then slowly nods. "Tell her that you'll be going with us to the Kiyashi Ward Shopping Mall after school." And Shōto gives him a frown at that because he knows that particular mall is all the way in Tokyo, and it takes a couple of hours to get there by train. Still, it's the only suitable place where they can get everything they need without having to run all over Musutafu.
"Okay," Shōto finally says after a beat, and they all finished getting changed. Just in time, too, seeing as their classmates are starting to file out of the locker room.
The trio falls in line with the rest of the students, ignoring the hushed whispers and sour looks sent their way, which immediately abate once they're all back under Aizawa's direct supervision. It's almost amusing how easily cowed these children are by the Pro Hero's presence, but it's also going to be a problem for when he won't be with them throughout the rest of the day.
This is the thought currently circling through Izuku's mind as they all file back into the classroom, Aizawa trailing in behind all of them, and it sputters to a stop when he takes a seat at the teacher's desk. Aizawa says nothing when Izuku gives him a questioning look, just a pointed glance that has him scurrying to his seat with Tōya and Shōto in tow. It doesn't come out until the teacher for their next subject arrives, and Aizawa gives her a truly maniacal grin as he says, "Just pretend that I'm not here, Ueno-san."
