[Third Person's PoV]
The locker room was filled with the echoes of laughter and the sounds of guys getting changed out of their gym uniforms after an exhausting race. Tony had just tossed his shirt into his locker when Kirishima let out a heavy sigh, rubbing the back of his neck in frustration.
"Ugh, I really need to work on my mobility…" Kirishima muttered, visibly disappointed in himself.
Kaminari raised an eyebrow with a smirk. "Isn't your whole thing being, like, an unbreakable tank? Why dodge when you can just bulldoze through everything?"
Kirishima exhaled with a wry smile. "Even tanks need wheels, man… gotta move faster sohow," he replied, half-laughing.
Tony chuckled, shaking his head. "That's a good one," he said, amused. "But seriously, have you tried focusing on hardening specific muscles, like in your legs? Tense and reinforce them just enough to store power, then harden them to lock in that energy. It should give you a solid burst of speed."
Kirishima blinked, tilting his head in thought. "Huh… I usually just harden my whole body. Never thought about isolating specific muscles."
"Yeah," Tony encouraged with a nod. "It's all about control. Might take so practice, but once you get the hang of it, it could be a ga changer."
Kirishima grinned and gave Tony a thumbs up. "I'll give it a shot. Thanks, man!"
Suddenly, Mineta's high-pitched voice interrupted their conversation. "Hey, guys! C're, you gotta see this!" He waved them over, his eyes gleaming with excitent as he pointed to a section of the wall where an old flyer was peeling off. Just beside it was a tiny hole leading into the neighboring room.
Mineta's face twisted into an expression of gleeful perversion as he gestured at the wall. "Look! Our predecessors must've worked real hard to make this! And guess what's on the other side? That's right—the girls' locker room!"
With a disgusting grin, he leaned closer to the hole. "We'll be able to see Yaoyorozu's gigantic bobbies–"
Before he could finish, Tony's face darkened, his usually calm gaze turning ice-cold. He rolled his shoulders, and his form started to grow as tendrils began to erge and wrap around his arms, pulsing with barely contained energy. Everyone in the locker room went silent, instinctively stepping back as Tony's presence beca overwhelmingly intimidating.
"Ashido's sexy silhouette–" Mineta managed to gasp before a thick tendril whipped around his neck, lifting him off the ground. He choked, his hands clawing at the constriction around his throat as Tony's low, guttural growl filled the room.
"Listen here, you pathetic waste of space," Tony's voice rumbled, distorted into sothing dark and terrifying. "In that room, where your disgusting eyes were just trying to peek, is my girlfriend. Before you even get the chance to look her way, I'll make sure you're incapable of ever thinking about won again."
A gaping mouth appeared on Tony's mask, revealing sharp, monstrous teeth and a long, dripping tongue. His distorted voice carried a venomous promise. "I'll rip your tiny excuse for a body apart, one piece at a ti—starting with that useless thing you call a 'manhood.' And when I'm done, you'll be nothing but an armless, legless, dickless blob rolling in the street… like a turd… in the wind. Do you understand?"
Mineta's eyes welled with tears as he nodded frantically, gasping for breath. Tony released him, letting him crumple to the floor, where he doubled over, coughing and shaking. Tony shrunk back to his normal size, dusting off his hands as if nothing had happened. He clapped Mineta on the shoulder with a wry smile. "Glad we ca to an understanding."
The room was silent, the other guys staring at Tony with wide eyes, unable to fully process what they had just witnessed.
Then, from the other side of the wall, they heard lissa's voice, filled with laughter. "THANK YOU, TONY! LOVE YOU, DARLING!" Her teasing tone was followed by a chorus of giggles from the girls' locker room.
Tony's cheeks flushed a faint pink as he scratched the back of his neck. "Yeah, yeah," he mumbled.
He shut his locker and exited the room, leaving the boys staring in a mixture of awe and disbelief.
Finally, Sero broke the silence with a shaky voice. "Did anyone else just… almost pee themselves? Or was that just ?"
The others nodded hesitantly, murmuring in agreent.
"Tony can be that scary?" Kaminari shivered, looking slightly traumatized.
Midoriya scratched his cheek awkwardly. "Well, Tony's really protective of lissa, but that's the first ti I've ever seen him actually snap like that."
A muffled voice from the other side of the wall chid in again. "I am blessed!" lissa called out, her tone as mischievous as ever.
Midoriya could only shake his head, chuckling softly to himself as he left for a eting with All Might.

The school day passed, and everyone was seated in class, waiting for Aizawa's announcent.
"Sumr vacation is right around the corner," Aizawa began in his usual bored tone, "but it would be irrational for you to have the entire month off. Instead, you'll be participating in a training camp in the woods."
Several students groaned, while others, like Kirishima, lit up with excitent. "I knew it! I'm so pumped!"
"There'll be campsites, bathhouses, fireworks—the works!" soone cheered.
But Aizawa wasn't done. "However…" His tone turned icy, capturing everyone's attention. "Anyone who doesn't pass the final exam will be spending their sumr in redial classes. Right here."
A collective gulp ran through the class, and as the bell rang, everyone got up to leave, murmuring nervously about the upcoming exams.

As Tony packed up, lissa sidled up beside him, her eyes gleaming with mischief. "Like a turd… in the wind," she repeated, lowering her tone to imitating his voice with a smirk.
Tony's cheeks reddened as he covered her face with one hand. "Will you please drop it?"
lissa leaned back, laughing. "you'll be nothing but an armless, legless, dickless blob rolling in the street!" She repeated once again, dropping her voice making it raspy, trying to look intimidating, furrowing her eyebrows, but couldn't hold back her grin.
"My God, You're so annoying," Tony grumbled with a small growl, his voice barely hiding his embarrassnt.
Toru chuckled, joining in. "I thought it was kinda sweet how you stood up for her!"
lissa hugged his arm tightly. "See? He's the best."
Momo, looking a bit worried, gave him a sympathetic glance. "I an… Mineta's a creep, but didn't you take it a little too far?"
lissa only laughed, a sly look crossing her face. "Oh, so you like being spied on, Momo? Noted!"
Momo's face went bright red. "I absolutely do not! Don't say that! What if soone hears and believes you?!"
The group erupted in laughter, Momo's embarrassed expression making everyone laugh even harder.
Just then, Uraraka jogged over to Tony. "Hey, does that offer still stand? I, uh… I talked with Toru about her experience and wanted to make sure it was safe."
Toru gave her a thumbs-up, grinning. "Yup! Like I said It's a great deal. You'd be crazy to pass it up."
Tony nodded. "Of course, the offer still stands. We can start right now if you're up for it."
"Really? Okay, just let call my parents first," Uraraka said, pulling out her phone.
"Can I co too?" Toru asked, practically bouncing with excitent.
"Sure! You coming too, Momo?" lissa asked.
"Yeah," Momo replied, smiling. "It's been a while since I've been over."
Uraraka returned a minute later with a thumbs-up. "All set!"
With a confident stride, Tony pointed forward. "Alright! Then onwards, comrades—to uncover the secrets of gravity!"
They followed him, laughing along the way, and lissa couldn't resist one last jab. "Like a turd… in the wind!"
Tony groaned. "lissa, if you don't drop that, I swear to God…"
"HAHAHA!"
