It's that time of the year where every class and every year likes to show off their talents. Aizawa in his usual unenthusiastic way asked us to decide what to do so we are all in class debating what to choose. I just said concert casually which ended up being the selected result.
Later in the dorm room Kaminari convinced kyouka and bakugo to compose and play the drums. I was then selected to play the guitar which isn't so bad. "Sabaku kun can you help me write this song" "no problem kyouka Chan". For the next seven hours we discussed and wrote sheet music for the song.
Obviously it was [hero too] that we composed as it hadn't been invented yet but with my help it went much faster. Lyrics were easy and the guitar was a breeze however the choreography wasn't really my forté so we called in Mina who is the specialist. I had to listen to bakugo bitch the whole night about what he deemed worthy to play.
So close to losing it on this guy, shouldn't Deku have beaten this outta him by now? After that was more work with the construction team for the next three days. My sand castle move is extremely helpful for designing and construction of a base. Like Lego in a way.
The song team left the lighting, seating and marketing to momo who was more than happy to help splurge on the project. We were only performing once so on the day I gained an excuse to leave prep to go do some exploring or should I say passing out flyers.
Deku was happy to announce that little eri was coming to the performance and I was glad to here it. They didn't show it but this stuff was super stressful to plan and implement. So many pots of coffee, so little sleep. The horrors we had to endure with making sure we conformed to regulations and had the right licenses for speakers and lights.
Attention to detail is not one of my strong suits so spending days on improving specific little things was torture for me. This is why when I join or start an agency I'm making sure I have someone to delegate too.
Me, kyouka and Mina are sitting on my massive bed tuning the instruments and going over the notes of the performance just to make sure everything is perfect. Had some leafy Lo-fi playing in the background to keep us awake and the cats were contained. Well shirone and kuroka were contained as robin doesn't really bother people when they work so I give her extra scratches for it.
"*yawn* who wants more coffee?" Two tired girls raise their hands up high. Even Mina with her infectious optimism is no help here so I make a quick trip to the kitchen. I already know how they both like it; Mina loves a white chocolate Mocha with caramel sauce and some cinnamon. Kyouka loves a cappuccino with brown sugar while I personally love a cafe au lait. Perfectly balanced as all things should be.
I also talked to sato about some baked goodies so we had some caramel squares and fudge brownies to munch on. Calories? Who's counting when you have work to do and lives to save. When I came back I found the two coming down off their coffee high so I upped their dosage.
The crisp humms of satisfaction when they take a sip are so pleasing to the ear. I raise the volume a little and tuck back into the work with checking that the equipment can meet the required volume for the space we have allotted.
After a few more hours everyone just passed out on my bed. I woke up with pink jugs in my face, a rocker tied around my arm and a cat weighing herself on my abs. A quick check off the clock and it reads 10 Am. Fuck! I quickly spring up waking the girls who were about to complain so I shoved the clock in their face. Their eyes widened and they quickly copied my actions.
Kyouka took off to her room while Mina started our shower so I could release and feed the cats. After washing up and getting dressed I leapt out of school grounds and used dessert trial to aim for the tailors. We had suits to collect, after that I went towards jiro studios to pick up a fresh mic for jiro and some other tools. I hoisted it all on my back and took off towards UA.
I could already see people entering the premises and some stalls already opened. Shit shit shit we are behind schedule. I quickly landed at our stage and passed out everyone's costumes that have been pressed and steamed. Found kaminari and tokoyami to pass them their instruments. Installed the new speaker and mic, ran tests on the lights, checked the stage and props were functional and practically mauled todoroki for more coffee.
It's 3pm and the show starts in an hour so I exhaled and slumped into my chair while dance rehearsals took place. I saw Deku slip off to purchase more bolts as some had snapped and quickly remembered gentle and la brava. Eh not my problem. After the rehearsals finished I went to Mina and asked if she wanted to tour around the place.
She happily agreed so we went around the stalls. We got to carb up on some takoyaki and some kebabs. I'm so glad people here our eccentric. I quickly remembered one thing I needed to find before anything else happened. When Mina asked why I was so panicked I told her about Eri so we quickly made our way to a candy apple serving stall.
I got one just for her so we decided to make our way back. I saw nejire entering the Miss UA contest but I wasn't interested. I also saw 1-B's disaster of a play on a billboard; Romeo and Juliet and the prisoner of Azkaban. As a HP fan I felt the need to JK rowl upside monoma's head.
We made our way back and found a cute little girl with a micro horn being surrounded by a pac man and school girls. We made our way towards them "is that Eri- chan I see?" I said drawing her attention. She was all shy and nodded towards me. Mirio was just smiling at me as per usual. He's been doing that an awful lot since the raid, I think he may have been a little pissed about the sand vest yet grateful and doesn't know how to confront it.
"I have something special for you". She looked at me directly in the eye as I reached behind my back slowly to pull out the candy apple. She closed her eyes and flinched, she must have thought I was reaching for a gun like those bastard yakuza. Her eyes scrunched together began to wiggle as she sniffed and slowly opened her eyes to see a shiny red orb in front of her face.
"A candy apple!?!?" She said with excitement in her face. I nodded and said "for you" so she meekly took it in her hands and looked at it. She then looked back to me and the apple continuously so I nodded to her and she licked it. After that she took a massive chomp out of it and began to smile just like I remembered. It was more beautiful to see it in person I thought to myself as everyone was happy to see her like this.
We made some more small talk and began to get ready for the show. Deku wasn't back yet so I decided we should just start prepping but just like the protagonist he is arrived just in time with a busted up nose to perform. I pushed uraraka to clean his dopey ass while everyone else got changed. She was more than happy to comply while aoyama just made poses towards them while Mina elbowed me while gesturing towards the two.
After that we gave the performance of a life time that was just like the show. The feeling of performing on a stage while the audience is filled to the brim was exhilarating, I could feel ants on my skin from excitement. When the lights turned on and we the band were shown it kicked off just like in canon. I'm glad to be here.
"Let's do this shit!!!!! We are gonna murder all the students with music!!!!!!!!!"
