It is a weird feeling... Almost like suddenly getting a new head.

[As weird as that sounds...]

I don't want you to loose too much sleep, Sawada-kun! I'll get started on a a few sleep aid potions for you right now then. It shouldn't take me too long.

Yeah, that's a way to put it.

Don't rush on my account, Midoriya-kun. I'm fine for now, and not really going anywhere.

I think I have some homework I can work on.

[Though after a few minutes, there's another message.]

Actually, Midoriya-kun...can I ask you a question?

I think if it's something that's bothering you enough that you're posting like this, I'd like to do my best to help you as soon as I can.

[....?]

Yeah, of course. What is it?

Then, I appreciate it.

But, I was just wondering. How much has Gokudera-kun told you about our world?

Ah... He's told me about how you and your friends have special powers. The work a lot like quirks do.

And that you're working hard to protect your friends from other... ahh... groups?

To be honest, he was very vague about it.

[Yeah, that seems right.]

I figured he would be. I kind of asked him to.

I didn't really want people finding out about the truth because they might get the wrong idea.

Guess you didn't really buy the story about the sumo club, huh?

[Ah.]

Yeah... To be honest, I didn't think the sumo club story was real. But I didn't want to press it either, Sawada-kun.

What do you mean people might get the wrong idea, though?

I kinda figured. It's not the best cover story.

[And yet, they continue to use Ryohei's lie. Something to be said for consistency, he supposes.

But, he supposes this is the brink right now. He'll need to trust Izuku.]

That. Yeah.

Have you ever heard of the Vongola? They're a mafia family from Italy?

[He really doesn't blame Tsuna for using a strange story. Sometimes it's just easier, isn't it?

But he does blink at that message.]

Eh? Italian mafia? I don't know much about that, no?

[Oh, he's actually going through with this. It takes a long time to type out.]

Not a lot of people do. I barely do. And the Vongola might not exist in your world.

But I just wanted to ask.

I'm the tenth generation heir to the Vongola family.

[Sent very quickly after the last text]

N-n-not that I want to be!

It just sort of happened, in a weird series of events, and my ancestor actually started the family. It, it, it's really confusing.

But I can't seem to get out of it!

But, that's why I've been cagey about everything, and the story about the sumo club.

But we don't really want to lie to you anymore. I've learned that that can be a really bad thing.

[He's gonna go hide under a rock now.]

[Give him a minute or two here. Tsuna is the heir to a family in the... Italian Mafia???

... Is his friend a villain? Izuku stares at the wall for a good few minutes.]

What does being the heir mean?? Sawada-kun are you dealing with illegal activities?

No! No...I haven't had to do anything illegal at all!

To be honest. I don't entirely know. My tutor's told me a lot of things, but a bunch of them...I don't really know how it all fits in.

[There are a lot of things that a Mafia boss is responsible for apparently.]

It's not something I want though. If anything, knowing what the Vongola is, I'd rather destroy it.

I almost don't know what to say. That sounds incredibly dangerous...?

When I hear the word Mafia I think of illegal gang activity...

But, you don't seem the type to do something like that. Neither does Gokudera-san?

What does destroying it mean? I'm sorry if I'm asking too many questions.

It's alright. I'm kinda dumping a lot on you.

But you wouldn't be wrong about that...it is dangerous. And complicated. It's not something I ever expected my life to be.

[He pauses for a moment, before deciding that no, he won't speak for Gokudera. His Storm can speak for himself. He'd probably just make the conversation more complicated.]

To be honest, I don't really know what destroying it means either. I'm not in charge yet. But...what the Vongola is now, isn't what it should be or what it was when it started. And I think I have to be the one who fixes it.

Nono seems to think so, and Primo.

[God knows why.]

Sawada-kun...

[Sorry, he just needs a moment to process.]

With all of this...? Are you alright? Are you going to be alright?

To be honest? I've kinda start to think so. That I will be alright.

I mean, there's days when I'm alright with it and days where I definitely don't want it, and a lot of days when I'm in between.

[And he's yet to properly sit and talk with Nono about it all.]

But I don't regret my friends, or having the power to protect them. With them, I know I'll be alright.

I hope we can still be friends after this.
