101: 𝑆𝑒𝑐𝑟𝑒𝑡𝑠 (𝑝𝑎𝑟𝑡 2)
Kira spoke with Aizawa. While all the other students were trying out new "ultimate moves" they were discussing her quirk.
He had several theories, things that might be possible for it to do that she had no idea about. Most of the time this process was done at a very young age, during quirk therapy.
But we all know that didn't turn out very well for our young mindreader.
So now Aizawa was doing the job of one. Testing out each possibility with her.
"Do you think your quirk could work the opposite way?" Aizawa asked her, they were sitting on the sidelines of the new training center. Explosions and fighting going on in the distance as each of her classmates tried new flashy moves.
"Like Mandalay's?" Kira asked with a frown.
"Yes, have you ever tried to project your own thoughts?" He asked. "To relay information to someone else?"
"No." She shrugged.
"Do it. Focus on me and try to force your thoughts on me." Her teacher instructed.
She shrugged and closed her eyes. Thinking very loudly. Trying to force her thoughts into his mind.
'Hello??? HELLOOOOOOOOOOOOO?!!'
It didn't work.
He showed no reaction, not even a flinch. Kira rolled her eyes and screamed mentally, doing what she hated for other people to do. Over and over again. "AHHHHHHHHHHH AH AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!"
But there was nothing.
"Alright." Aizawa sighed, he didn't seem happy about this. His mind thinking about any possibility. "There's no way her quirk is just this... There has to be more."
"Well I don't have any ideas. As far as I know this is it." Kira said with a frown.
"Alright. Let's start over. How does your quirk work?" He asked. "What makes it stronger? Weaker?"
"Physical contact makes it stronger." Kira said and he nodded along. "And barriers make it weaker."
"So your quirk is at it's absolute strongest when you're just touching someone?" He asked.
Kira hesitated. "Um... Yep." She nodded. She wasn't about to admit that kissing also made it way stronger. Not too her teacher at least. She hadn't even told Bakugou about that yet.
He frowned, sensing she wasn't telling the whole truth. But he didn't say anything about it.
"Okay." He said. "I think we need to get down to the science of your quirk. How it works and why. Then we'd be able to guess at what other possibilities there are."
He stood up. "But... I can't do that."
"Damn it." Kira mumbled.
"We'd have to call in a professional." He continued, knowing she didn't love the idea of another quirk doctor. "But I know several people that are very trustworthy."
"What about recovery girl?" Kira asked hopefully.
"Recovery Girl specializes in physical injuries and healing. Not quirks." He shook his head. "She wouldn't be much help, we need someone with the proper equipment. Able to run blood tests and maybe do some scans."
"Egh, what's wrong with the way I am now?" She asked with a frown.
"If you found out there was a way to control it, would you use it?" Aizawa asked. "If there was a way to expand and decrease your range?"
Kira stared at him, not answering. Because he might be right.
Her whole life she had assumed that this was it, that there wasn't anything more to her quirk. The idea that there could be something more actually made her a little scared.
"I don't know." She answered honestly.
"Would you want to find out?" He tried again. "What if there's something more powerful under the surface of your quirk Kira? Every child is supposed to go through this process, they're supposed to be taught how to use their quirks."
"And I'm sorry that you were hurt severely during that process." He finished out loud. Kira kinda liked it, the way he communicated with her both through his thoughts and his words.
She knew he did it when he couldn't quite put his thoughts into words
"Fine. I'll try it out." Kira crossed her arms. "But at the first sign of trouble, I'm leaving."
"Of course."
°.•.°•.°•.°
The students walked back to the dorms after they were kicked out by 1B. But they didn't mind all that much.
Stretching out sore muscles as they made the trek back to Heights alliance. Ready for some chill time and good food before bed. Bakugou and Uraraka were up for kitchen duty, which was actually a good thing.
Bakugou and Uraraka were both fairly good at cooking, and their individual tastes made sure the food was a good balance of sweet and spicy.
Kira was paired with Sato this Saturday. Which was also a good thing because unlike him, she didn't know what the hell she was doing in a kitchen.
The students sat around the common room, some were watching the TV while eating while others chatted amongst themselves. As the hours began to tick on the first student stood up.
"Well I think it's time I go get some sleep!" Iida said with a smile.
"Dude it's like nine o'clock..."
"Class rep's going! Time to trouble make!"
"That's Iida for you."
"O-oh wait!" Another student stood up. Denki Kaminari rubbed the back of his head nervously. "You think you can wait a minute, there's just something... I wanted to say?"
Kira looked up, raising her eyebrows in surprise. Was this it? That secret he had been talking about earlier. She turned to give him her full attention. He was right next to her and she could tell he was growing more and more nervous.
"Of course!" Iida said after glancing around. Patiently waiting for his classmate to continue.
"Well um..." Kaminari cleared his throat. "We've all been living together for almost a week... And we've been going to school together for awhile." He stammered.
Kira could tell he had a whole speech lined up in his head. One that he was too nervous to force out all the way.
"Well what I'm saying is..." He was pretty red, Kira could feel him start to regret this decision.
She put a hand on his shoulder reassuringly. He glanced over and gave her a timid but thankful smile. "I think it's just a good idea to let you guys know that..." He hesitated. "Sorry it's dumb, but I haven't told so many people at once in awhile." He chuckled.
"It's alright Kami." Mina said with a smile. "What's up?"
"Um... Okay so some of you guys may have already guessed but... I was... I was um... Assigned female... At birth?" He said with a nervous smile. "Like I'm not biologically male, but I transitioned when I was pretty young... And I always knew that I was, you know? A boy?"
Kira flashed him a bright smile. She had started to think this was the case, after he mentioned a 'secret' to her when she told everyone about her quirk.
"Woah, wait actually?"
"Ribbit?"
"I have so many questions... I might not ask though, I don't really know what insensitive or not..."
"My father mentioned.... Interesting... I'm not sure..."
"Ohh isn't that one Tiger guy trans? Is that why Denki kept on asking for him?"
"THAT'S why he pisses in a fucking stall!"
"So um... Yeah that's it. I just figured since we're living together and all I should tell you guys. Because if I didn't you'd probably see something or figure it out anyways."
He said, now rambling. "Sorry if I'm... You know making you guys uncomfortable-"
"Aw Denki!!!" Mina said, throwing her arms around his shoulders. "Don't apologize! We don't care! We love you Denki!"
"Oh my God!!!! I'm so proud of him!"
"Yeah man! Telling us all like that takes some real guy! I think it's totally manly!" Kirishima told him with a wide smile.
Bakugou looked over at Kira, a slightly confused expression on his face. "Wait... Were we not supposed to know this?? I saw his binder our first day, kinda forgot about it."
Kira pat Bakugou on the arm as he stared up at the group. He has legitimately kinda known the whole time, he just gave so few shits that Kira didn't even pick it up in his thoughts.
"Thank you for confiding in us Kaminari!" Iida stated with a smile. "I don't know very much about that community... But I do know we need to be accepting! I can do that!"
"Yeah well... I mean at my old school I was pretty open about it. It's not like I'm ashamed you know? I just... . I wanted people to remember me for other reasons. I didn't want to just be known as UA's trans kid." Denki said with a shrug.
"You're not!" Mina said, still hugging him. "You're so much more than this Kaminari!"
"Yeah man, don't sweat it." Jirou said with a smile. "He's totally cool."
"Thanks guys, it means a lot." Denki said, hugging Mina back. "Sorry for not bringing it up sooner."
"Don't be, it's your choice." Kira said, giving his hand a squeeze. "I'm glad you're comfortable with all of us."
"I... I am." He smiled and Mina finally pulled away. "Thanks guys, it means a lot that you guys still accept me."
"How could we not?!" Toru said, Kira couldn't see her expression but she was sure it was a smile. "We love you! You're our friend!"
"I love you guys too."
A/N: some of you guys guessed it
(Some of you guys also thought he was the traitor or... A furry😳?)
But real talk rn
I am not transgender and I don't currently personally know anyone who is transgender (at least not irl)
So if I write something offensive or inaccurate in regards to this character (or any other character such as Tiger or Magne) it is NOT because of malice or with intentions to degrade/offend the trans community. It would Only be because of mild ignorance.
So if there is any issues now or in the future please reach out to me though the comments with constructive criticism.
I want to do this right.
And his character isn't going to revolve around him being transgender because as stated in the story he is SO much more than that and it shouldn't define him as a person/character!
Thanks, that's all! Love you <3
