Hatsumomo had an appointment with one of the new first years and she wasn't sure what the appointment was about and she kicked herself to just think that she should ask what it was about. But she had just confirmed time and date and would see what it was about. At these moments in these days, Hatsumomo would just go, tackle her days as simply that; days. She would not think about the future, she would muse around her office, make sure she would keep everyone happy and satisfied, no matter how splitting these results could be from each other. She was nervous, nauseous and tried to be happy. There was so much of everything and so much risk that she did not know what to do. The burner phone was in her purse, the rest of the instructions were at home. Everything was just normal on the outside, she was just not there, she wasn't anywhere in her mind. She did not want to think so much about others, how she felt like she was betraying everyone that trusted her and she did not speak her mind about all the others. Nessa telling her so much about that strange day as if she had won the lottery and she did not want to think about it. Her mind wondered while she went to grab a thermos of tea and just all this. Her mind was always thinking too much, giving her a headache and so on. What more could she expect of herself? She was only wondering what more to do about it, what could she do? She felt like breaking herself but there was no one that she could speak to, not to Mosa, not to Murakami-san, and definitely not to Itsuki. She had been panicking and tried to keep her distance from him now. Literally not handing his lunch to him but she put his lunchbox in the fridge with a little note that it was for him. That was about it, good he was busy, good everyone was busy, so they would not notice that Hatsumomo would break. So close to the edge of her own end. No, it wasn't about her, nothing at this moment was about her. She would wait for Misako to arrive and tell the counsellor her concerns. She would be there, she hated how she had to think if she should inform Ishtar about this, but she would see, rather not. But what could she do? She should provide protection in another way.

Misa had been having a very rough week lately. Something that she was not entirely used to, if she was being frank. She usually was a bit of a naive optimist, but she had suffered a small injury in training and since then it just has felt like... she was out of place everywhere she went. New students had joined the class and they were all impressive specimens. They easily dwarfed Misa in both size and ability. She still trained regularly, but with the sprain in her ankle it felt like there was no progress to be made. She didn't feel right talking to her peers about it, no, she found the very thought of that embarrassing. How would you approach the very people that you felt inferior to about your own inferiority complex? It was hard enough to make in her head. So, she needed something else. Some outside help, it seemed. She looked into programs that the school offered to students that might need a little guidance like her. It didn't take too long. As it happened, a school for aspiring heroes had plenty of resources available for mental health support. One of the hazards of the job was your mental health declining. She didn't want to talk to one of her teachers though, no... they were too close to it. Besides, they were supposed to be anonymous and it would probably be more productive to have a fresh face to vent to. So, she'd made an appointment with the receptionist. Maybe she could help her find a place to go, and help her with the appointment. The school was supportive of their students health and the like, and the receptionist seemed like the best place to start with finding the right people. Misa only hoped that it wasn't completely unorthodox to approach her about such things. The last thing she wanted to do was look more foolish. Taking a steady breath to steel herself before she got cold feel, Misa decided to just get it over with and knock on the door. She did so lightly, almost timidly as if to show off her nature and demeanor. The door was a little open, and her knock only pushed it further. She poked her head in and smiled awkwardly at the woman. "H-hi. Uhm, I'm Misako Suzuki. I had an appointment. Can I... come in?"
Yeah, that seemed a little forced didn't it? Oh well, it was too late for the shy girl to back out now.

God she just wished she could go back to sleep, each day, every day, and every single minute. She was so tired of everything and she could not describe the hows and whys and yet she had to continue working as if nothing happened and the sun would shine brightly. Yes. Obviously, great. wonderful. She though up when she quickly turned her attention to the clock, it was time to pull yourself together again Hatsumomo, the green woman thought to herself. Because soon she would be approached by one of the students who seemed to be overwhelmed or had issues and who else to talk to then her about this career choice, at least that's what Momo got from the first question. Maybe it was about something else but that was the issue, she loved to help as long as it would not bring anyone in trouble. She gave herself a few short slaps on her cheeks, not enough to colour them before she stood up, unlocked the little office behind this room and made sure it was empty to sit at the table. That's when she heard a knock and turned quickly back to the open space that was the reception room, with some cabinets and the reception desk and her computer.
She opened the door that was at the back and smiled at Misa who introduced herself and she nodded, "Come in Suzuki-kun." And she stepped aside and pointed at the door to the little office. "I have a seat over there, if you would like to sit. I quickly will shut off the reception so that we will not be disturbed." That meant she would close the door behind Misako, would shut the window that was above the reception desk, so people couldn't get into the room and shut off the PC in sleeping modus so that would be safe as well. With that done, she would head into the little room herself and closed the door but left it a little ajar to make sure that it did not seem to be claustrophobic small in here. She would ask Misa if she wanted something to drink, "now tell me, what do you want to talk about?"

Misako imagined that asking for help was something that was hard for a lot of heroes, especially the ones that were on top. She used that to try to reassure herself that it was normal to be nervous as she was approaching someone to talk to about her mental state and her physical well being. Still, it did little to make her feel less like a deer in headlights when the door was unlocked and opened. She took a moment to react, but when she gathered her wits she nodded quickly and rapidly, walking into the room with a slight limp. When she made it to the chair, she sat with a heavy thud that might give away her exhaustion. She looked around the room nervously as Tsuchiya-senpai set the room and the tone.
"T-thanks for seeing me. I really appreciate it." She said, turning down the offer for a drink. She wasn't trying to linger here, she was sure that the lady had more than enough on her plate and couldn't spend more time than needed looking after a kid like her who was just being silly. "Well, I guess... a few things... I've been having a little trouble lately. I feel like... I work hard and I try my best and I'm not enough. I... don't want to go to my parents, because they hate the idea of me being a hero and would leap at the opportunity to get me to quit. I just... well, for starters I guess I just wanted to talk. Is that stupid? If that's stupid, we can skip that part and go to the next thing."
Yes, not only was she after reassurances, she also wanted help setting up a doctors appointment discreetly. Her parents could not, by any means, find out that she had hurt her ankle. No way. They would freak out and at the least threaten to pull her out of the school for her safety. She had no plans to let that happen. So she had gone through the store and gotten everything that she needed to get an appointment with a doctor. She just needed an adult to point her in the right direction on who she should see and the like, really.
"I guess to sum it up, I was just here hoping that maybe you could help me get a few things sorted out. Tell me if I'm doing things... right?"

Hatsumomo did notice a lot about Misako, the fact that she walked a little unstable because of a limp and that she threw herself in the chair as if she had been walking for days was saying a lot. Exhaustion could come from a lot of things that had not even to do with physical training but obviously that could be it as well, considering the school they were at. She had a little more of a worried frown on her face when she did not miss the nervous tick that Misako showed by stuttering the first word and she did not want a drink so Momo would sit down and watch the girl with worry. Well then it was probably the best to get this started as fast as possible so she asked Misako what she wanted to talk about and she watched her carefully and took a little notepad to make notes in case it was necessary. "Oh dear, no, of course, it's not stupid to talk about such a thing. I am here for that," She said worriedly when the girl asked her if it was stupid. She nodded and scooted a little closer to the table and put the notepad on it with the pen. "Okay, let's start there and just talk alright? What sort of things do you need to figure out?" She smiled, trying to make the atmosphere here friendly and open so Misako would not feel bad to talk about anything. Oh that she was already worried about everything at this point and had no support of her parents, it always hurt Hatsumomo a little.
She had a lot of students whose parents were not supportive and there were enough that changed their mind or were supporters at the start. Still, everyone had their own challenges and Hatsumomo was going to figure out what she could do for Misako.

Misa wasn't entirely sure on what the best way to start this would be. It was really hard to express her concerns here, but it was even more daunting to think that she wouldn't be able to tell anyone. Maybe part of being a hero was being able to admit that you were weak sometimes? If that was true, then this was definitely one of those times for sure. In the safe space that was the office of a school official whose job it was to provide assistance. She took a deep breath after deciding how she wanted to word things.
"I guess... my problem is from my support that I don't get at home? I have these powers and I want to use them to help people. Just like everyone else at the school, I guess. I just... well, some of the other students are clearly better at this than I am already. I work hard but it feels like I'm playing catch up to my peers instead of actually getting better... maybe I'm just not cut out to be a hero?"
But the idea of leaving her friends and abandoning the progress she made here was radical to Misa. She liked the people here. She liked the work, even if she wasn't good enough for it. Maybe not everyone was cut out to be a hero, but was it too soon to give up? After working so hard and coming so far to let it end here seemed... well, sad for starters.
"Uhm, I was also hoping you could refer me to a doctor for my ankle injury? The infirmary said that they wanted my parents to do that but... well, they would just freak out and panic about it. It's not that big of a deal, I swear! I just... never made an appointment for myself before."

Hatsumomo looked a bit surprised, but to be fair, she had more students that were kind of hard on themselves. "Every flower needs time to blossom and some are faster than others. Just because you are feeling like you are behind does not mean you do not belong here, Suzuki-san." She felt that it was maybe more necessary to explain something but she first looked at Misako to see her reaction on what she had just said. "It isn't always good to compare yourself to others, especially because everyone their quirk at this point is very different and works very different, it is still hard for teachers to explain and try to support everyone one by one but we are trying. You just started this semester and your school year, so why not try it a little longer. Especially if you like it here, don't worry about being behind when it comes to your quirk." Don't worry about anything was basically what she wanted to say and what she thought Misako must think about and she was sure that one day the girl would be able to catch up. They had all sorts of levels of power over the school, which was an interesting thing to see. She hoped she could at least get that idea in Misako's mind so she would not be too afraid of staying or feeling too bad about it.
"A doctor? But deary the doctor is here. You can go to the infirmary and see Nimue Nakahara, she can heal you or support your ankle very well that you don't need to see a doctor outside of school." She smiled as she did not entirely get who told the girl that wrong kind of information and if she should spread the news a little more about how the school worked, hm... something to consider. She also got a little worried about Misako's reaction to her parents. "Your parents aren't too happy you are going to be a hero?" Maybe that was part of the problem? Misako feeling the need to actually push herself too hard to prove she was worth it? Eh who knew.

Misa listened to the reassurance the adult provided, nodding thoughtfully. Maybe she was being too harsh on herself, comparing to other students her year when everyone's quirk always worked so differently. There was still plenty of time to catch up, but... well, even if she didn't was it really so bad to be a lower ranked hero? A hero was a hero either way, and she was sure she could help people even a little no matter how good or bad she became. "I do... really like it here, so I guess you're right then. I'll have to give it some more time to get a real proper feel for it then. I appreciate the confidence you have in me. I think... it might be just what I needed to hear."
Hatsumomo went on to explain that the doctors at the school would be able to look after her injury, and Misa nodded. She had seen the doctor here, and received some healing. "A-ah. That's embarrassing. I must have seen the nurse then instead, because I didn't get to see Nakahara-san. I'll go back there to get it checked out again, then."
The next question was harder for Misa to approach. She had always wanted to be a hero and her parents had always wanted her to live a quiet life doing something much safer. So when asked about her parents, she meekly nodded with a frown. "Yes, they aren't very happy with the idea. They want me to run their bookstore, but I've always wanted to be a hero. I guess it's just hard not to have anyone to talk to about it. I know you have a busy schedule, and all, but just this short talk made me feel a lot better about being here. You're really good at this!"
In fact, maybe it would be possible for her to help her even more? "Maybe you might know of someone that heroes can talk to about stuff like this?"
