Mina raised her eyebrow when some new girl butted into the conversation. She shouldn't have felt judgmental, but she did. She had no leg to stand on in regards to manner and decorum after just now. And it wasn't a matter of holding back with Mina. She sparred today in order to prove to herself that she was healed enough to grapple and use her martial arts like she used to, and the only 'holding back' she had been doing was not using her quirk. Then the spar turned into an actual fight and she got sloppy, and she knew that without the teacher's intervention, she'd either have lost or flashed Dulga's eyes, which was a very risky move in an emotional state. She could have permanently blinded Dulga if the fight went on a few more seconds, and that was a line she had promised herself not to cross.

She watched the girl leave, 'Momo', she was called, and then turned to Jais as he addressed her, sniffing and wiping her eyes. Listening to him, he did kind of have a point. She wasn't used to failing. Not like everybody else here. What really got her attention, though, was Jais' story about Jett. It sounded so similar to her own childhood in many ways, except she focused solely on the fighting and the hero theory, and instead of learning to be a hero without her quirk, she doubled down on her quirk, turning the mere ability to glow into something incredible and powerful. Mina had never learned from past failures. She was never in fights at school because she was a rich girl, and bad blood was cleared with boasts and insults, not with fists. Her entire life was spent being best quirk user her age at her school, in every aspect of being a hero, except, unknown to her, personality, motive, compassion and ego. She didn't have a chip on her shoulder. She had a whole tree.

[color=ffdd99]"Well, no,"[/color] Hitomi replied to the reasoning that this idea would be like out internships. [color=ffdd99]"Internships, while you are part of an agency, are focused on you learning from the pro hero. The agency itself might direct you, or give you orders, but you don't really learn about what goes into working in an agency. You might merely get given a costume and gadgets, for example. With this Komei Collective idea, you'd be learning with the support students, what goes into the process of costumes and gadgets, whilst the support students learn what costumes and gadgets would be the most useful for that hero student."[/color]

Asahi's speech backed her up and added even more good points. Still, not everybody was convinced. Hitomi noticed the General Studies student was silent, and looked over at her. [color=ffdd99]"You've been quiet. Is there anything you'd like to say?"[/color] she asked softly.
