Tomoe had called him strong. He guessed that was a compliment and she was definitely right about it giving them a chance in this exercise. As far as he was concerned, he was going to carry this team and there was no other way around it. It was at this point she had told him her quirk after looking him in the face. It was as awkward as it was comforting, and he was starting to warm up to the massive amount of contact that Tomoe seemed to give. Her quirk however sounded useful. Not a difference maker but it had it's place, and given that she promised it wouldn't hurt him, he didn't see an issue with it, but it was slightly concerning to him that it would be brought up in the first place. She then departed to go and put her costume on, which is when Mina had begun speaking.

Ezra listened to what Mina had to say. She was obviously very invested in hero tradition and wanted to emulate what those before her had done, and he didn't exactly see a problem with it. She seemed to think it was an important part of being a hero, and he honestly didn't feel like arguing. He wasn't changing any minds, and nor was she. This occasion, she was her teammate and as a result, he wasn't going to go out of his way to disagree with her unless it impacted what was happening. But she seemed to have something else in mind. The girls quirk. He was interested to see how it worked, but he'd got the gist of it from her explanation.

"She can make a clone of herself in her sleep that's a lot stronger. Don't really know how it works but I was thinking what you were as far as she's concerned." he spoke, giving a nod of approval to Mina. As disagreeable as she was, she wasn't a net negative and she wasn't an idiot, merely a flawed thinker in his eyes.

She had came back in a pretty interesting classroom. She immediately had asked who she was, but he found the costume interesting. It was pretty tight, and she was clearly embarrassed about wearing it so he couldn't understand why she was wearing it in the first place. If she didn't find herself comfortable in it, why would she put it on? That was one of his major gripes about costumes but he figured the question had effectively answered itself so he gave her a nod before she had begun to speak to Mina. 

He'd effectively ignored the conversation between them however and placed his head back, but it seemed as if it was merely a greeting as before long, Tomoe had come back to him. There was definitely already a sense of attachment considering she had asked him if he thought it was childish and no-one else in the room. That, and the tone at which she spoke had put him in a mood to not give an answer true to his feelings. Whilst he thought all costumes were childish, he figured he'd give a better answer to her so she wouldn't lose her motivation just because of Mina's flexing in essence.

"No. Things are only childish once you believe that they're childish. If you like your costume and you think it's the coolest one in the room, then it's the coolest one in the room. Nothing anyone does or says can change that, as long as you genuinely believe that." he spoke straight from the heart. He wasn't often emotional, and he wasn't here, but he was genuinely speaking from his feelings and what he believed in this one. He hoped she'd regain her confidence that she'd had, because if she didn't believe in herself, then who was going to. He'd learned that the hard way himself.
