Chapter 13

White ranunculus Ishi had decided, were her favorite flowers. She liked some of the other colors, but they didn't mean anywhere near as much to her as the white ones.

Tamaki had started coming over more often, both with the big three and alone. He often got even more nervous than usual when Eraserhead opened the door and glared at him in that scary way that he glares at anyone or anything that upsets him even the smallest bit.

The more Tamaki told Ishi about his quirk the more excited she got to make new foods for him to try out. The U.A. kitchen often got some interesting ingredients from various suppliers so Ishi didn't need to worry about finding anything that may ordinarily be difficult to procure.

"HEEEYYYY LUNCH RUSH!!!!! IS ISHI IN THE CAFETERIA!!!!????" Mic shouted when the Cook Hero walked through the door.

Lunch Rush replied simply with a thumbs up before Aizawa gave him quite the look which urged him to elaborate. "We got in some new ingredients and she had found a new Chinese recipe the other day, I'm excited to see how it turns out" he explained before continuing across the room to take a seat.

"I'm so glad the girl is making friends, I was worried about her" Recovery Girl comments from the kitchen door, where she stood with a tray of snacks and a pot of tea.

"I think he's too friendly." Aizawa grumbled from the floor.

"You're just too protective," Nemuri countered. "You're used to her depending on you for everything, so now you're upset she's moving on to other people". Everyone but Aizawa had to nod in agreement. Most of them had never been parents by any means; it was something that they had all agreed would be a bad idea, both because if they got hurt or killed then the child would be emotionally damaged, and because it was dangerous to be the family of a hero, villains always use family against them. So when Ishi came around and became their charge and they grew this familial bond they weren't expecting it to hurt so much when she grew up.

"Rinse jellyfish and put into bowl~"

"Whisk sesame oil, soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, chili oil, and ginger together~"

"Pour into jellyfish and let marinate for fifteen minutes~"

Ishi had put the recipe on the counter and was letting her snakes direct her on what to do, they had picked up reading probably faster than she herself had at first.

She looked at her phone while waiting for the jellyfish to marinate for the nine minutes before she had to start the next step. A little while ago she had traded phone numbers with the Big Three. She had a big chat with all of them and then one on one conversations with each in case they wanted to talk about something privately.

Nejire's way of messaging consisted mostly of her sending gifs, emojis, or little pictures that Ishi had to figure out the meaning of. It was kind of like playing pictionary all the time, but occasionally she would send a worded message. Ishi had figured out that oftentimes, the most complex and emotional messages she sent were through images. It was almost as if Nejire didn't quite know how to voice her thoughts, so she used pictures to convey it instead.

Messaging with Mirio was pretty normal, though he was often more energetic than she was used to keeping up with. Despite that, he always seemed to make her day a little bit brighter. He had a different way of looking at the world that she could appreciate.

Tamaki was a person who paid attention to detail. He appreciates the little things in life, and could probably be described as someone with a 'nature aesthetic'. Oftentimes he sent little macro-photography style pictures of rain drops on leaves, or any butterfly he sees. It was always calming to see a notification alerting her that he had sent a message. Ishi routinely changed her background whenever she got a new picture from Tamaki. She hadn't been outside anywhere in quite a while, and even then she always had her eyes covered; so whenever she got to see something new, Ishi was filled with joy.
