Author's Notes: Chapter edited and corrected by Scott Fellman.
"For what it's worth, I'm sure they'd be really proud of everything you have accomplished," I said honestly. Tanya shuddered slightly, a smile growing on her face and puffing out her chest. I blinked several tis and looked inside her body with my Transparent World. Did her heart really race because of that?
"Thank you, I do my best in everything I do," Tanya said proudly. I nodded.
"I know, I may not have read your entire biography, but I did read about your accomplishnts. Graduating with honors from high school? Truly amazing, you're wonderful." I said with a smile. Tanya flinched slightly once more, and her smile grew even wider. Her heart started racing again, but her face didn't change. Her proud smile was plastered on her face, completely impassive without any sign of it.
"It was just my prior knowledge," Tanya tried to dismiss.
"No, no, no, you really are amazing. I had the sa advantages as you, too. And I didn't rember anything I studied in high school, so I had to study like the rest of my classmates. I could finish in the top percentile, but only because I knew I had to work hard. But I was never first in any of my classes. You're amazing," I said honestly.
Tanya shuddered again, but it seed more like an involuntary reaction now that I saw it. Her face hadn't changed in the slightest. Either she had an excellent poker face, or she didn't realize what was happening to her body.
"You flatter . You'll make blush," Tanya said simply, but she didn't hide her smile.
"Smart, dedicated, and beautiful. You really are a good prospect as a partner." That finally broke her mask, and Tanya smiled even wider as she shuddered harder. I finally understood and started laughing out loud.
"w-what-?" Tanya asked foolishly.
"Oh goddess!! You have a fetish for praise!!" I squealed in excitent before starting to laugh out loud. Tanya stopped stiffly before the words registered in her head and blushed deeply.
"Of course not!! I don't have a fetish like that!!" Tanya squealed, deeply embarrassed. I burst out laughing.
"Don't deny it, Tanya! Every ti I praise you for sothing you've done correctly, I've noticed that you puff out your chest and smile proudly. You even shudder with pleasure sotis!" I said playfully.
"Not !!" Tanya squealed, her ears entirely red. "There's nothing wrong with living up to other people's expectations and proving myself to my superiors. A complint is a blessing for any future prospects in any field!"
"It's like a positive grade on my proverbial annual employee review! It's the taste of success. It's wonderful. It has nothing to do with the satisfaction and pleasure that settles in my chest when I give an important presentation, and the board mbers nod in approval! "
My smile was huge, almost unhinged. Tanya clamped her mouth shut and looked at in horror, as she realized.
"Oh goddess! I have a fetish for praise! " Tanya squealed in horror. My eyes opened wide, and my eyebrows rose as high as they could go. I started laughing once more.
"You summoned a deity?!" I shrieked between peals of laughter. Tanya stepped back, paling slightly.
" t-that's not important! The important thing is that now everything makes sense! All my life! My previous life! The way I tried to get praise from my superiors at every turn! I convinced myself it was because I was advancing in my career that way! I thought it was because of my complexes!! But no! Can you stop laughing!? " Tanya exclaid in crisis. I recovered slightly and wiped the tears from my eyes.
"Hey, it's not that bad. There's no need to panic." I tried to calm her down slightly.
"Isn't it that big of a deal?! This- this changes everything!" Tanya exclaid. I raised an eyebrow in her direction.
"Does it?" I asked simply. Tanya looked at and opened her mouth before stopping, slowly closing it. "Does it even matter if you have a fetish?" I asked simply, shrugging.
"Of course It does! I can't have one! " Tanya exclaid, recovering, and I raised an eyebrow in her direction.
"Why not? Who said so? " I asked in confusion.
"In case you're forgetting, I'm more than twice my age," Tanya grumbled.
"You an three tis. You look thirteen," I said playfully.
"Izumi!" Tanya growled. I rolled my eyes.
"Okay, let's be serious. There's nothing wrong with having a fetish, no matter your age. You can be 60 and still have it. It doesn't change anything. You're not hurting anyone. Trust , I'll still be this horny until I'm 80 if I can," I said playfully. Tanya wrinkled her nose.
" Gross," Tanya said with a grimace. I looked at her amusedly.
"I don't know why you say that. I'll still be married to you at that age. That'll be your problem," I said amusedly. Tanya paled slightly before shaking off that ntal image.
"No… just no. Not now." Tanya said tersely. I burst out laughing.
"Still, you really don't have to worry. I'll never judge you in any way. In fact, I'd be more than happy to explore it with you if you'd like." I said with a smile, and Tanya looked at flatly.
"You just laughed at when you found out," Tanya said dryly. I burst out laughing.
"Two things can be true at the sa ti. I'll make fun of you, because you're adorable when you're blushing and embarrassed. You're actually pretty, in case you haven't noticed. But I'll never judge you for sothing you like. I'll never insult you for sothing that makes you, you, Tanya."
"If at any point my attitude bothers you or hurts you in any way, just tell , no matter the situation. Tell , and I'll apologize. Honestly, the last thing I want is for you to feel like I'm insulting you in any way. That I'm hurting you by doing so." I told her honestly with a soft smile. Tanya looked at for a few seconds before sighing and nodding.
"Don't worry, no… I'm not upset. I just panicked over so kind of life-changing revelation." Tanya said simply, and I nodded before smiling.
"I an, it's not so much a life-changing revelation, but rather one that gives perspective to your mories," I said amusedly, Tanya rolling her eyes.
"Sa difference." She growled, and I just laughed lightly.
"So… can I keep praising you?" I asked with an expectant smile. Tanya blushed slightly.
"Y-you can, but… keep it light for now, please, and… don't praise for just anything. Like walking straight or jumping properly, it'll make feel more like a kid than I already do." Tanya said dryly, I laughed lightly, but nodded.
"I can handle that. Do you want to keep it platonically, or can we explore it sexually later?" I asked curiously. Her blush deepened. She cleared her throat.
"I... need to think about it. I really need to digest and accept my... inclinations first." Tanya said timidly, I nodded. "But don't tell anyone." She growled while glaring at . I raised both hands in surrender.
"Of course, it's not like we're going to have sex anyti soon, but I just wanted to know if you had a problem with it." I said. Tanya nodded. We both continued eating in silence.
"Can I kiss you?" Tanya asked, and I raised an eyebrow at her. Tanya blushed. "W-well, we were just talking about sex. Like I said, I don't have any problems, but… it doesn't hurt to test things out and see how it goes. I don't want any problems soon," Tanya said, clearing her throat. I smirked.
"We can kiss." I said simply, moving my chair away from the table and hitting my lap. Tanya blushed, but understood what I was asking. With her height, there wasn't any other comfortable way for us to kiss without looking awkward.
"Excuse ," Tanya said as she gently sat on my lap. To my surprise, she didn't freeze or back away; she simply wrapped her hands behind my head and brought her lips to mine. I smiled slightly and let myself be carried away by the kiss.
Tanya clung to imdiately, her small fingers tangling in my hair, and she sighed against my lips. Tanya started slowly, just pressing her lips against mine. I stayed just as still, letting her move first. Finally, she did. Tanya visibly relaxed, and she began to slowly move her lips over mine, and I eagerly reciprocated.
We continued kissing for what seed like minutes before Tanya sighed lightly, trembled a little, and held on tighter to , pressing her slender body against mine. Finally, Tanya parted her lips slightly, and her tongue clumsily darted out of her mouth and flicked against my lips.
I imdiately counterattacked, deepening the kiss passionately. Her tongue, lips, and body were tiny—everything about Tanya seed tiny in front of , which was terribly arousing. She seed so delicate, so fragile, so vulnerable. I could barely contain myself. My tongue took over the inside of Tanya's mouth as I abused hers.
Tanya certainly didn't seem to mind. She shuddered and moaned loudly once more. I could feel my erection growing in my pants, enough so that Tanya froze slightly when she felt it beneath her firm little ass. I froze, too, waiting for Tanya to make a move.
To my pleasant surprise, Tanya continued our kiss and began to move her hips slowly. Her butt pressed against my erection, making moan slightly. We finally had to separate. I rested my forehead against hers while we caught our breath.
"That... that was acceptable." Tanya said as she caught her breath. She looked slightly drunk.
"It certainly was." I said, my eyes shining as I stared at Tanya's tiny but swollen lips. They really did look kissable. "That was amazing. You are. You're really sexy." I said huskily. Tanya shuddered once more before squirming on my erection again while looking up at lustfully. We were about to kiss again when soone cleared their throat and caught our attention. We both looked away. It was one of the waitresses there, and she was looking at us with a tight smile.
"Excuse , miss, but could you show your ID for a second?" the waitress asked. I burst out laughing as I hugged Tanya. Tanya moaned loudly as she pinched hard.
"Fuck you Izumi." She muttered as she stood up and pulled out her ID for the fourth ti.
Yes, the rest of the night was a good date.

May 27, 2xxx - Izumi Pov .
"You're finally here," Jinx complained as I approached her. We were in one of the UA gyms. Jinx seed to be wearing a sports bra, showing most of her tattoos, and UA gym uniform pants. I was the sa as always. A tight black short-sleeved shirt with baggy white pants.
"Sorry, I had to stop to pick this up," I said, waving the bag over my shoulder. "Nice ink," I said honestly. Jinx shrugged before smiling.
"Do you want to get one? I'm sure we can make you sothing that will surprise your fiancées," Jinx said mockingly. I lifted my shirt on the left side.
"Count?" I asked simply. Jinx's eyes widened slightly.
"Well, well, well. I never expected that from you," Jinx said with a wide smile. "A dozen piercings? Tattoos? Did you have a bad boy phase? " Jinx asked amusedly. I shrugged. It certainly didn't make sense to tell her they were birthmarks in that shape, especially since they looked like a tattoo with how black they were. I set the bag down on the floor and opened it. I grabbed sothing from inside and tossed it to Jinx.
"Put it on." I said simply. Jinx looked at what was in her hand and looked at in disbelief.
"A boar's head?! You really weren't joking?!" Jinx asked incredulously. I didn't answer and threw one of my special breathing masks at her. I'd have to order more from the support departnt if I were giving them away to everyone I was going to teach. I was starting to run out of them.
"Put them both on, I'll do the sa." I said as I pulled out a second Boar head. This one was more worn than Jinx's; this one was mine. I'd had it for years, ever since the backyard camping incident. By then, I'd learned my lesson about not losing sight of the house, but I still put it on and trained with it. The boar head was cool, sue .
I put the boar's head on and reached back into the bag, pulling out four serrated katanas. None of them had a hilt of any kind, just bandages wrapped around where they should be. Inosuke's classic swords. The swords required for Beast Breathing.
"Okay, that head is pretty cool." Jinx admitted as she looked over. I laughed lightly. Jinx finally followed my order and put on the breathing mask first, then the boar head. I handed her two of the jagged swords, and she took them. "Okay, I can barely see anything, and I can't breathe well either. What are these things for?" Jinx asked as she looked at herself.
Looking at Jinx. The boar's head with Jinx's body was an odd sight. But it suited her terribly. And not in an attractive way, but more like Jinx always had a wild, almost bestial, unpredictable, and ferocious presence. Even when she was still. The boar's head suited her really well.
"Several things. Like I said, you're going to learn Total Concentration Breathing. You have to maximize your lung capacity to achieve this. The respirator will help. It decreases the amount of air you can breathe, almost simulating a mountain's altitude and the air's thinness." I explained as I began to warm up. Jinx snorted, but began to mimic and warm up on her own.
"You don't have to worry. I was born and raised in Zaun. The place is so polluted that no one who isn't native can breathe the air down there without a filter. My lungs are better than everyone else's." Jinx said simply. I humd lightly.
"If that's true, then that'll be good. It ans we can shorten your training by weeks. Still, I want you to use it to see where you're at," I said simply. Jinx snorted, but didn't refuse. "And the boar's head. It's to narrow your field of vision. I want you to focus on your instincts, not what you see." I said simply.
"Really?" Jinx asked in surprise.
"No, it just looks cool." I said shalessly. Jinx snorted loudly.
"So, how do we start so you can show those fancy moves of yours?" Jinx asked almost mockingly. I finally stood still and looked at her.
"Actually, I was hesitant about teaching you how to fight. You don't seem like soone who enjoys traditional teaching. So, I figured the best way to go about it was the easiest way possible. You have excellent reflexes and instincts, and you're not lacking in strength or speed, so I don't have to teach you anything beyond learning how to use a weapon." I said. I manually deactivated my Disinterested State and let my killing intent begin to surge forward. I could see Jinx imdiately tense up and go on guard almost imdiately. Really, good instincts.
"Which way is that?" Jinx asked slowly and carefully. I smiled widely inside my mask.
"I'll beat the shit out of you! I'll hit you so hard I'll force your body to morize the right moves! Every ti you make a wrong move, I will hit you until your body moves, only to correct them! Try to copy my movents, let your instincts take over… and try not to die! " I let my instinct explode in Jinx's direction. I could see every hair on Jinx's head stand on end, and she shuddered slightly.
"n-no- wait-" I didn't let her continue as I appeared beside her. Beast Breathing: Second Fang: Slice, I did a downward X slash with both swords. Jinx reacted imdiately and dashed to the side. Beast Breathing: Fourth Fang: Slice 'n' Dice. I launched multiple attacks in Jinx's direction. Jinx clumsily raised her swords to defend herself, but she could only stop two of my blows. Three others hit her body hard.
Jinx was thrown back and imdiately stood up.
"All right! You want to fight! Let's fight!" Jinx exclaid wildly. I smiled widely. Oh, I would enjoy this training. I moved again to attack her.
Jinx definitely had no talent for any style that required any kind of precision or specific technique. During the ti we'd occasionally sparred in class, she was all instinct and brute force. And it worked for her because she was extrely aggressive and resilient.
So Beast Breathing suited her perfectly. She was already wild on her own, so taking advantage of her instincts was terrifyingly easy. It was easy to keep hitting a specific spot every ti she made a wrong move, every ti, until her body reacted instinctively.
We slowly continued training. Jinx's body was covered in bruises and cuts everywhere, red, slightly neon pink blood dripping from all over her body. Even so, Jinx remained standing. It was strange; I could see her veins standing out neon pink, but her blood was still mostly red as it flowed out of her body. It was weird.
Still, her Quirk was the only thing keeping her standing; she was terribly stubborn. But she'd improved a lot. I'd been using only Beast Breathing so Jinx could mimic it, sothing Jinx did while I was hitting her whenever she moved incorrectly.
There was an almost substantial improvent. At least I could see Beast Breathing in her increasingly desperate attacks. Even when she was utterly exhausted, her body moved virtually as expected. That was good.
The next thing I know, Jinx was right. Her lung capacity wasn't an issue at any point. She maintained her breathing, stamina, and strength almost constantly throughout the entire fight. Really, the lungs of the Zaunians were sothing else entirely. Now, I wanted to know if Zaun was as bad as it was in canon, which would be horrible considering our era.
Jinx had made quite a noticeable improvent; at least, she was much more comfortable using swords and was adapting to my movents. Even so, I only increased my speed and strength when that happened and continued to outmatch her fairly easily.
"You're a monster." Jinx moaned as she fell to the ground, completely exhausted.
"That was a good warm-up," I said with a wide grin. She glared at from the ground, though it certainly had no effect on that boar's head. So I burst out laughing. "Still, better than having to do repetitions of the sword moves over and over again, huh? " I asked playfully. Jinx groaned.
"Yeah… this is much better… despite the beating you gave . But I couldn't even land a single damn hit." She grunted. I just laughed once more.
"I'm glad you like it, because we still have a long way to go! Stand up. Now we have to teach you how to breathe properly. And that's done through repetition! " I said happily. Jinx moaned loudly.
"Everything hurts," she complained.
"You can still complain, so you can keep training." I said with a sadistic smile. Jinx flinched even as she was hidden behind my boar head.
"Damn sadistic monster." Jinx growled in misery. I just laughed happily.
Ah, it was nice to have soone else to torture, I an, train.
