The match was moments away from starting and Kei might be losing his mind a bit. Seriously, who put him up to this? They had to be a shapeshifter of some kind if they could convince everyone around the sign up desk that they were Kei. Did they mimic his voice too? Surely they did- he kept to himself a lot but he'd never been the silent type. He greets people when he's greeted! He makes small conversation! Someone would've noticed something was off if he scrawled his name on the sheet with no comment. Oh god, the referee was counting down now. Forget who got him in this mess- think instead about who he and Ylva were up against. Masao and Michael- students with complementing fighting styles all things considered. From the little he's seen in their exercise, Masao could probably tank a lot with her armour while Michael was fast, using that wind he dispelled from his balloon body to zip around - because yeah Kei did eventually realize Michael was a balloon and his red face was not from overexertion. Wait, Ylva was making her move- no way have they started yet- he wasn't ready! And Michael was flying right towards him! Kei covered his face with his arms. Only to be met with a question. "What?" he couldn't help but respond. He lowered his arms and looked up to see the balloon-headed student standing before him in the least intimidating stance he could muster given their height difference. Kei blinked once. Twice. Concede? He was quiet, letting himself think while Michael let him. In any other situation he would've gladly taken the suggestion to just leave the arena. Kei wouldn't get hurt, an actual hero student would be victorious; it was a win-win. A win-win-win if one counted Masao as another winner since she was Michael's partner. But one glance at Ylva was all it took to convince him otherwise. She seemed determined to wipe out the competition. She really wanted to win. Her voice echoed in his head. Don't fuck it up.Kei didn't want to know what would happen if he fucked it up. He shook his head at the first year, voice shaking. "I- I can't." Willing his breathing to settle, one metal arm was deployed from his pack. It'd be similar to the tendrils Michael saw in his simulation with one key difference. Instead of ramming him with it, the claw at the end of the arm would open up. "I'm really sorry!" Water shot out then, aiming to push Michael back with the torrent. Ylva Riis, Samaritan, Masao Ando

A voice addressed him and Kei lowered his glass to look up to see a pink bunny. He smiled when he recognized who it was. "Oh Rahul, thank you! Your costume's so cute!" He didn't expect the guy to wear a onesie, but he didn't think he'd wear a shirtless suit himself either. Halloween lets you be anything you want. The freedom's why he loved the holiday so much. Kei's brow furrowed at his remark though. "What do you mean?" Frankly, Yaoyao did a fantastic job in his completely unbiased opinion. He looked amazing. They looked amazing. There was no possible way for them to look any better. But apparently, according to Rahul (and Yaoyao), what was missing in Kei's ensemble was a bare chest, which Rahul resolved himself. Kei's eyes grew wide. "Wh- dude??" He stared down at himself already patting his open jacket as the pink bunny made his leave. "Did he just take my button??" Oh god, now he couldn't close it. And the blush he tried so hard to subdue was spreading beyond his face. Great. Fantastic. His laugh was manic for a moment at Yaoyao's suggestion. "No throwing anyone please- I'm fine." Kei now had a hand resting above his stomach to keep his jacket closed. See? He's doing well. He just couldn't move that hand ever now. And closed it shall remain when a familiar redhead made her way over to the couple. He grinned, glad for the distraction. "Jun! You're here! What's wrong though- you look good?" Did she have a wardrobe malfunction too? Nothing seemed out of place on her sailor outfit from what he could tell. Maybe it was more subtle than his missing button. Speaking of, someone seemed to have witnessed the loss because they made their way over to him with sewing kit in hand. "Oh!" He didn't know who this person was but they're really lending their kit to him. How incredibly sweet. He had to sacrifice his hold on his coat to take it (it was a good cause anyway), laughing at the following joke all the while. "That's so kind of you! Thank-"He looked up, and the scarecrow was gone. "...you?" Kei turned to the girls, cup in one hand and sewing kit in the other. "What just happened?"

Another day cleared of lectures, and Kei was in the lab once again. For good reason this time. He didn't hole himself up in the workshop just because he wanted to like usual. This time the Sports Festival was coming up, so he needed his mind to stay sharp if he was to keep up with the rest of his peers. He stood back with arms on his hips, admiring his work and considering calling off for the day when a familiar voice reached him. Kei turned to him and smiled. "Farrin, hey! It's good to see ya!" His brow furrowed, puzzled. "Crack? There's no crack-" He focused back on his project and squinted at it. Even walked closer and lifted it up - a sphere, its use difficult to discern from appearance alone - to turn it in various angles just to make sure that, no, there were no signs of breakage anywhere on the item. It wasn't until the time-turner's correction registered that he paused, blinking. "Oh." He placed the device down. "It's goin' good! I'm just cleanin' up." Kei patted the top the orb. "You can go now." Said orb did a sequence of beeps before it bounded off the table, and he watched as it rolled along the floor to reach its charging station at the side of the room. With that done, he turned his attention to Farrin and smiled. "What about you? Is there somethin' I can do for ya?"Farrin

Halloween yacht party! Kei had been meaning to go to the last one his colleague hosted, but he wasn't able to as he was working on a big project at the time. Now for once he was free so he could attend. God though, why did it have to be in Tokyo Bay? He'd been met with some kind of misfortune every time he went there, and fifth time's the charm didn't bolster much confidence that nothing bad would happen either. Yaoyao wanted to go too though. That eased his nerves a lot. So yeah, he was going with her. She had ideas for their costumes so Kei let her have her fun dressing them up for the party, opting for a theme they could follow together which he thought was cute. Angel and devil, but the roles were reversed. She was the angel while his red suit signified the man of the underworld. Horns-adorned headband and pointed tail included. He felt weirdly exposed, not wearing a shirt underneath the jacket by Yaoyao's request. The only reason he agreed to it was because he got to button said jacket. He asked her if he could and she let him under one condition. And. Well. Let's just say the red on his face wasn't just from the makeup. Kei was on the ship now with his girlfriend at his side, drinking water in a feeble attempt to cool himself off. He could've gotten any other drink but he didn't want to risk using his Quirk on anything else. Maybe later when everyone gets too drunk to focus on what he'd be doing.

Okay. So he wasn't the only one who threw something in surprise. Kei's eyes rested on the ruined pastry and the streak of frosting it created. He- he's probably gonna have to clean that. But that didn't matter right now. Right now she was just as surprised as he was, and it was his fault because who the hell throws a screwdriver in surprise? The hands he held up became more placating. "It's okay! It's okay, just- let me know you're there when you enter the room maybe? Instead of while you're right next to me?" He didn't hear her come in like- at all. Granted he does usually get so focused on his projects that he loses sight of everything around him. He really should be more aware of his surroundings. With the girl putting attention on the thrown tool again, Kei looked up and rubbed his head, concern evident on his face. "Well yeah. I can't leave it up there either way, what if it loosens and falls on someone?" Wouldn't want someone to get hurt by it that's for sure. He'd probably have to fix the resulting hole on the ceiling too come to think of it. Before he could further think it though, the other student was removing her jacket to reveal holes on her back? Something was going on and Kei didn't know what. "Hey, what are you-" He raised a hand but he couldn't react more than that. He was too slow. Julienne Lémieux

Kei was doing a pretty good job he thought, resolutely ignoring the hole that was forming on his back from how hard a certain someone was staring at him. If he didn't see him, he wasn't there. The hero was a heck of an attention-grabber either way with the way she taught. He went through his own wave of emotions as he watched, from surprise at the blinding speed her whips travelled, to awe at her bounding in the air, to just concern at how hard she was laughing in her last move. Despite how amazing they were though, none really... applied to him? At his core he was a matter generator, duplicating what existed around him. He couldn't really control that matter once it was created. That's why he had gear; to direct it and condense the output into something workable. To have to come up with something new without his tech to fall back on is... That wasn't the obstacle he had to overcome either. Stellar stated who he was partnered with. And it was with the guy who the snake girl assumed didn't need to be here but actually did so he could perfect whatever anyone came up with before they could. Because he needed to one-up everyone at every turn. Motherfu-CLAP.Kei clasped his hands together. It's fine. This was fine. If anything it was for the best that he was grouped with him instead of anyone else. Jun - nice as she was to offer her help - already dealt with him a lot as it was and he couldn't tell how well the others would be able to handle him. Kei raised a hand at her words. "It's- I'll be fine. Maybe. You'll know when I'm not." It's not like he was a master at hiding his feelings. As he moved to face Gen, he held his hands up, placating. He needed to make something clear before Stellar checked in on them. "Before you ask, I don't know how I ended up here. I got an email that I was in this class which couldn't have been right because I didn't sign up for anythin'. I'm only here because there'd be an empty seat otherwise with how last-minute the drop would've been." He lowered his arms and sighed. "I'm good with where my Quirk's at, so I don't mind just helpin' you with yours."Gen seemed to already have an idea of what he wanted. Kei could only imagine which of his 'many' Quirks he'd be building off of. Stellar, 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐛𝐨𝐲, Julienne Lémieux, junsuina, Kurokami Gen, Makitori Hebi

Kei was slumped in his seat when Jun asked her question, staring at the flashing lights in slight horror as he whispered back his answer. "I have no idea."Because he genuinely didn't. He was heading to the lab as he usually did this time of day when he received an email reminding him that his class was about to start. Which already struck him as odd; he didn't have one at that hour. But he read more information about a guest lecturer and sought after seating and how the workshop was fully booked and- well. Yeah. So yes, he was here, shaking the hand of the sunniest person he'd ever met since that time his brother wore all white before situating himself as far away from everyone as he could. Which did little to hide his presence when not one but two people spoke his name as soon as Stellar's introduction was over. "What??" The rabbit guy was interested in him? Why? Did he know he was going to be here? No, definitely not. Even Kei didn't know he was going to be here. Jun did well to grab everyone's attention but he needed to speak up eventually, especially with Julienne calling him out too, so with shaky hands he pushed himself up. "Uh, hi?" he said with an awkward wave. Fantastic start. "Kei Hada, 3rd year in the Department of Support. I- make more water out of existin' water." The fact Stellar looked over all their Quirks wasn't missed. His eyes practically pleaded her not to correct him. "No ideas for the move yet."With that he sunk in his seat again, making himself look smaller than Jun. He'll have to wrack his brain for that move- as much as he didn't want his Quirk to get stronger he didn't want to waste the instructor's time either.

If Kei were a mind reader, he'd be concerned of the practices Hojo used to ensure that their chosen employees apply to their company. Secure the brightest of minds by any means necessary. Fortunately for Date, he didn't have such a Quirk. If anything, his real power was much more valuable and he was unaware of her interest in him beyond him being another prospect. He eyed the display behind her with interest, nodding at the positions open. "I see! Thank you, I'll look them over when I can." Not wanting to take limited resources, Kei opted to take his phone to scan the code instead. He did grab a business card and brochure though. Usually this was the part where he'd give his resume as well but admittedly it listed more of his engineering experience and less of working with Quirks. He'll have to tailor it to better fit the job description. Instead of mentioning this and worrying the representative though, Kei bowed his head. "Thank you Date-san for takin' the time to talk to me." He smiled when he stood straight again. "I'll be sendin' in my resume and letters of recommendation when I apply. For now, enjoy the rest of the fair." With that he would turn and leave, not wanting to overstay his welcome. Recruiters had a lot of applicants to go through after all. He could only hope he'd stand out among them. Date Oshiro

To the surprise of nobody, Kei was in the building game hosted by the festival. It was about the only one he took part in each year given it was less- fighty? Than the others. At least people would be so focused on their own projects that they didn't have time to target each other. The most he had to contend with were limited resources. So he was here, alone by choice given it was a race so the quickest vehicle would be one meant for a single person. And in the spirit of the competition, Kei would not use his quarms. ...In the race. Look, he couldn't just ignore their usefulness okay? Once the course was announced and the starting signal sounded, all four arms set out to grab whatever rods and metal plating were available before Kei returned to his station with them. Kneeling down, he organized the pieces and pulled his helmet over his face, lighting up his blowtorch to weld the rods and form the beginnings of the frame. It was race car-shaped. Not the most innovative but simple was good when speed was the most important factor. 𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐛𝐨𝐲

It's not often that Kei swears even in his own head, but what the actual fuck. He thought he was only going to participate in the building challenge. Take it easy with the festival this year so the other students could shine and garner sponsorships. Visit some stands. Buy some food and souvenirs. Try not to compare the event too much with the Unity Festival hosted just a few months ago. But no. No, he signed up for a fight of all things and he was told that he had fifteen minutes before he was to go to the stage. He did not at all but apparently he walked up to the sign up sheet himself and wrote his name on it. Several witnesses were there. No one denied his presence. What's worse is he couldn't just back out either. Not when doing so would get his partner disqualified. Because of course it was a 2v2. Kei was sitting next to her now, leg shaking as he watched the timer tick down. He glanced at her with a concerned look at her game plan. "1v1?" Great. She didn't believe he would last either. Which was fair all things considered so he just nodded. "Okay. I- I'll try to keep him off ya." The one silver lining he supposed was he knew both Masao and Michael too, both in the exercise they ran and the former in his support classes. Even if they wanted to win, he had a feeling that they wouldn't try to hurt him too badly. Crossing his fingers on that thought at least. Apprehension was evident in his form as he followed Ylva to the arena, and once he stood across from their opponents, Kei hesitantly lifted a hand to wave. "Hey guys..." It was obvious he didn't want to be here. He hoped this would be over quick. Ylva Riis, Samaritan, Masao Ando

Kei was still staring at the critter in wonder, though it was hard to miss the quiet around them as soon as the thing was free. "That's a relief." Because it was, even if his sense of it was different from Yaoyao's and the other pets. No longer did he have to worry about their stressed state; everything was as fine as it could be. Slowly pushing himself up - he was definitely going to feel that impact in the morning - he walked towards his partner, standing next to her so he could get a good look at the creature she now had in her hands. Not a dog by any means but oh my god - "Aww it's just a lil guy! Hi there buddy!" - it's so round and small and adorable. But even then he couldn't help but laugh in surprise at Yaoyao's declaration. "Hada the First?" Because he did not remember being talked into including his last name in their eventual pet's name, let alone for an animal that wasn't the bird they were planning to get initially. Then again... "Jawny and Bingbing are cute though..." And that face... Even he couldn't deny it. He was sold too. Kei took a deep breath before exhaling. Then looked up at Yaoyao. "I'm good with adoptin' this guy if we don't get the bird anymore."𝕐 + 𝕐

Kei nodded at her question. "Yep! Bit on the messy side but it helps me not forget anythin'- oh!" Kanabo! So she did have a preferred weapon after all. He took the pen from the table and quickly sketched out the kanabo, showing it to the other student afterward. It was a lot less refined than the open umbrella due to him not drawing on a surface but it did look like the club. Hopefully. "Should be easy to do! I'll even keep the studded appearance once it's opened- now that would look really cool."Folding the blueprint up for safekeeping, he snorted in surprise at her 'acceptance' of his apology. "Sorry- I mean-" He should not be this amused at how her way of telling him not to apologize reminded him of someone else. He took a deep breath. "Nice to meet ya Yoko! Let's do phone then, I wouldn't want ya to walk here so much with your leg bein' injured." Having only one crutch so she could hold her umbrella could not have been comfortable. "I'll aim for weekdays after class then so we can meet when your gear's ready for final tests."With phone numbers and goodbyes exchanged, Kei rubbed his hands together. Another project under his belt. His name really was getting around. Yanai Yoko

Kei had to be staring at the email for at least an hour now. Gear requests made in such a way had become surprisingly rare these days. Whether it be because clients would rather search for him in the labs or the idea sprang during a conversation, Kei could count in one hand how many times someone wrote something for him asking for his services. Those few times were nice honestly. They let him collect his thoughts and he wasn't put on the spot to respond immediately. Whoever this was also had a sense of humour with the kiss-ass thing, a laugh bubbling out of the junior as he relaxed further. He should respond eventually though. He knew this. He even read the document attached three times already, the subject matter intriguing to say the least. Yet what solely kept his attention in place was the very item the guy was suggesting. A teleportation device. Likelihood of being an impossible venture aside, the very idea of it was dangerous. Experimental gear that can deconstruct a person wholly before reconstructing them at a different location? Seriously, what would happen if the process didn't complete? Or the reconstruction itself was faulty? The concept was more Ana's style. She didn't shy away from the potential harm it would cause. Not because she wanted it to occur, mind, but because she'd always been more daring in her pursuits of science than him. She liked to take risks. He did not. His skills were improving though. He was getting better, taking on more complex projects that involved materials generated by Quirks. There had to be a reason this person requested him instead of the renowned genius. Personality in particular stood out to him. So okay. He'll give a shot. He just needed to make a response. To: j.orion@heroics.uau.jp Subject: Re: Gear Request
Hi Jack!
You can call me Kei. I read through the document and I have to say, it's really intriguing. I've worked with radiation Quirks before and while yours is similar, the instability of that chaos factor could help us explore the possibility of teleportation. I'd want to at least test this on a few objects first before attempting to blink a whole person though.
I'm available from 3-6pm next Tuesday-Thursday. If you're free during any of those days, let me know and you can come down to the support labs and ask the students around for directions to where I'd be. I'd give a room number but I tend to work in whatever room's free which changes a lot.
Hope to talk to you soon! And no need to worry about setting up a test area, UAU's the best hero university in Japan for a reason.
Sincerely, Kei Hada 3rd Year Support Major, UAU k.hada@support.uau.jp
Whichever day Jack would choose, Kei would be in one of the workshops well before the time of the meeting, with several books open at his table and Jack's document printed and laid out. Many lines were highlighted and hand-written notes were etched on the margins. He's nothing if not over-prepared. Jack Orion
