Mina Ashido, the vivacious and bubbly member of Class 1-A at U.A. High School, possessed a unique side effects to her quirk- her saliva was as acidic as orange juice. It was an ability that had proven useful in battles and training exercises thought less often then her acid paths ,but little did she know that it would play a surprising role beyond combat.
One sunny afternoon, Mina found herself sitting next to Tenya Iida during their lunch break. Her commendable class rep who she has grown to enjoy spending time with as he just balanced her out ,as they chatted about their latest hero assignments and upcoming exams, an intriguing thought crossed Mina's mind. What if her acidic saliva could actually benefit Tenya's incredible speed? She had had lots of random thoughts before, and she did like experimenting with her quirk as for one she want to make it as safe as possible for people when she's a hero , she knew her quirk saliva wouldn't harm him as she already had kissed a boy in middle school in a game of spin the bottle,
Curiosity sparked within Mina's eyes as she pondered the possibilities. She knew how dedicated Tenya was to constantly improving his Quirk: Engine, which granted him superhuman speed with engines integrated into his calves. Perhaps her acidic saliva could act like nitrous oxide for his engines!
With excitement bubbling inside her heart-shaped pupils, Mina leaned closer to Tenya. "Hey there, Ingenium! I've got something wild to share with you," she chirped.
Tenya looked up from his tray of food, intrigued by Mina's enthusiasm. "What is it?" he asked curiously.
"Well," Mina began with a mischievous grin forming on her lips, "did you know that my saliva has the same acidity as orange juice?"
Tenya blinked in surprise before chuckling softly. "That's quite an interesting factoid," he replied politely.
"But wait!" Mina interrupted before he could brush off her revelation casually. "Think about it! If we were to...you know...share a kiss or something—"
Tenya choked on his drink at the unexpected suggestion while turning beet red from embarrassment.
"—my acidic saliva might just give your engines a temporary boost! Like nitrous oxide!" she finished excitedly, her hands gesturing animatedly.
Tenya's eyes widened, his analytical mind racing to process the idea. "I must admit, Mina, that is an incredibly unique and unorthodox plan," he replied cautiously.
Mina could see Tenya's curiosity getting the better of him as his hesitation slowly faded away. It was evident that he couldn't resist the potential benefits this experiment might offer in terms of improving his speed further.
"Alright," Tenya finally conceded, a hint of determination creeping into his voice. "Let's give it a try."
And so began their unusual training regimen - Mina and Tenya spent countless afternoons practicing their 'Nitrous Kiss' technique. Each time they shared a quick peck on the lips, sparks seemed to ignite within Tenya's engines as they revved up with newfound energy.
As word spread throughout U.A., some students were skeptical while others found amusement in what became known as 'The Citrus Connection.' However, both Mina and Tenya remained focused on their goal: pushing each other beyond their limits through unconventional means.
Little did they know that this experimental partnership would not only enhance their abilities but also deepen their bond as friends. Through laughter and occasional embarrassment, Mina and Tenya discovered newfound trust and camaraderie amidst their peculiar training sessions.
The more they practiced, the more Mina and Tenya realized just how well their quirks complemented each other. Mina's acidic saliva provided a temporary boost to Tenya's speed, allowing him to achieve even greater velocities than before.
But it wasn't just about the physical benefits of their training. As they spent more time together, Mina and Tenya began to appreciate each other's strengths and quirks beyond their abilities as heroes-in-training. They found solace in one another's company, sharing stories, dreams, and aspirations that went beyond heroism. Their personality also complemented eachother, as while he was smart , calm and collected , she was loose , creative and compassionate , but also both being ambitious they worked together well. As the weeks went by, Mina and Tenya's unconventional training sessions continued to yield surprising results. The "Nitrous Kiss" technique had proven to be more than just a quirky experiment; it was slowly becoming an integral part of their training routine.
Mina's acidic saliva acted as a catalyst for Tenya's engine-powered Quirk, providing him with short bursts of enhanced speed. With each kiss, he experienced a surge of energy that propelled him forward like never before. Their teamwork became seamless as they synchronized their actions, striving for perfection in every attempt.
Their fellow classmates couldn't help but be intrigued by this peculiar bond between Mina and Tenya. Some admired their dedication while others found amusement in the unorthodox method they employed. Regardless, no one could deny the remarkable progress both heroes-in-training were making.
During one particularly intense training session at U.A.'s outdoor track field, Mina and Tenya decided to push themselves further than ever before. They aimed to break through their previous records using not only sheer determination but also the power of chemistry between them. With her heart pounding in anticipation, Mina leaned closer to Tenya on the starting line. Her bright pink hair shimmered under the sun as she whispered encouraging words into his ear.
"Remember," she said softly yet confidently, "we're in this together! Let's show everyone what we're capable of!"
Tenya nodded with unwavering focus etched across his face. He knew that Mina's support played a significant role in boosting his confidence during these challenging moments..
The signal sounded - it was time to put months of hard work into action. As they took off from the starting line with blinding speed, Mina initiated their signature move once again - a quick peck on Tenya’s lips mid-sprint.
In an instant, everything around them seemed to blur into a streak of colors. Tenya could feel the surge of energy coursing through his body, propelling him forward at an astounding pace. It was as if time itself slowed down for him while mina held onto him sliding on her acid.
As they raced side by side, Mina and Tenya pushed their limits further than ever before. The wind whipped against their faces, but they remained focused on the finish line ahead .
With determination in his eyes, Tenya surged past his previous records effortlessly. Each stride felt lighter and more powerful than ever before, thanks to Mina's acidic kiss providing that extra boost he needed.
They crossed the finish line together in a triumphant display of teamwork and synergy. Cheers erupted from their classmates who had gathered to witness this extraordinary training session.
Mina beamed with pride as she looked at her friend. "We did it, Tenya! We broke our own records!"
Tenya's usually stern expression softened into a smile as he caught his breath. "Indeed," he replied gratefully, "it's all thanks to your unique quirk and unwavering support." ."
As the 2 were celebrating aizawa was just watching the 2 shaking his head, let it be his kids find out a way to improve that will just create rumours of the class. He could also see that the 2 liked eachother but were oblivious to it.
Their bond grew stronger with each passing day - not just as fellow students but also as friends who trusted each other wholeheartedly.
Little did they know that their peculiar partnership would inspire others at U.A., showing them that sometimes unconventional methods can lead to incredible breakthroughs in one's abilities.
And so, Mina Ashido and Tenya Iida continued on their journey towards becoming heroes while rewriting the rules of training along the way.
Their unique training method - the "Nitrous Kiss" technique - had not only improved their abilities but also solidified their friendship.
As they approached their final year at U.A., Mina and Tenya found themselves facing one of the most prestigious events in hero academia – the Sports Festival. It was an opportunity for them to showcase their skills before a crowd of aspiring heroes, pro heroes, and potential employers.
The anticipation ran high as Mina prepared herself mentally for the upcoming competition. She knew that her acid and history in dance could give her an edge in various events if used strategically. However, it was during the relay race that she saw an opportunity to truly shine alongside Tenya.
With determination radiating from every pore, Mina approached Tenya with a glimmer in her eyes. "Tenya," she said softly but confidently, "let's take our partnership to new heights during this relay race." Tenya nodded eagerly, his own excitement mirroring hers. He trusted Mina implicitly and believed in the power of their connection both on and off the track.
On the day of the Sports Festival, as thousands gathered to witness this grand spectacle unfold, Class 1-A took its place among other formidable competitors.
When it was time for the relay race event to begin, Mina positioned herself at one end while Tenya stood ready at another. The baton clutched tightly within her grasp felt like a symbol of all they had achieved together so far.
As soon as Mina received the baton from her teammate Izuku Midoriya’s steady hand-off sprinting towards her side by side with Ochaco Uraraka who passed it down after him personally challenging Todoroki Shoto who reached out his hand giving up mid-race, she knew it was time to unleash their secret weapon.
With a quick glance at Tenya, Mina puckered her lips and planted a swift but purposeful kiss on the baton making sure to leave behind saliva before handing it over. The crowd gasped in surprise as they witnessed this unusual exchange.
As the baton made its way into Tenya's hands, he could feel the familiar surge of energy coursing through his veins. His engines roared to life with newfound power as he raced past his competitors effortlessly.
The combination of Mina's acidic saliva and Tenya's unparalleled speed proved to be an unstoppable force. They left their opponents in awe as they soared towards victory, crossing the finish line with a significant lead.
Cheers erupted from the stands as Mina and Tenya basked in their hard-earned triumph. Their classmates rushed forward to celebrate alongside them, congratulating them on their impressive performance.
Mina couldn't help but feel overwhelmed by a sense of pride and gratitude for all that they had accomplished together. She looked at Tenya with tears glistening in her eyes. "We did it," she whispered sincerely, "and we couldn't have done it without each other."
Tenya smiled warmly at her words, knowing deep down that this victory was not just about winning a race but about proving what true teamwork could achieve.
In the aftermath of their triumphant victory at the Sports Festival, a newfound realization began to take hold in both Mina and Tenya's hearts. The unorthodox training sessions, the countless hours spent together, and the undeniable chemistry they shared had blossomed into something more. Mina found herself stealing glances at Tenya when he wasn't looking, her heart racing with each interaction. Meanwhile, Tenya couldn't help but feel a sense of warmth whenever he was around Mina, his thoughts often drifting back to their training sessions and moments of laughter.
During one particularly warm summer evening after a long day of training at U.A., Mina suggested taking a break under the shade of a cherry blossom tree near campus. The soft pink petals danced in the breeze as they sat side by side on a bench.as they sat side by side on campus grounds after class, an air of nervous anticipation filled the space between them. Finally gathering enough courage to address their growing feelings for one another, Mina couldn't help but steal glances at Tenya while he stared up at the sky deep in thought. His focused expression was both captivating and endearing – traits she had come to admire throughout their unconventional partnership.Mina took a deep breath and spoke up and reveal her true feelings for him. "Tenya," she began softly, her voice barely above a whisper.
Tenya turned his attention towards her with curiosity sparkling in his eyes. "Yes?" he replied gently.
A mix of excitement and apprehension coursed through Mina's veins as she continued speaking from her heart. "I never expected our training sessions would lead us here...but I've come to realize that you mean so much more to me than just an experimental partner." Tenya looked taken aback for a moment before his lips curled into an affectionate smile. "Mina," he said sincerely, reaching out to hold her hand comfortingly, "you mean so much more to me too." "You've become such an important part of my life."
Their smiles grew wider as relief washed over them both - knowing that their feelings were mutual brought an overwhelming sense of happiness and excitement. Their hands intertwined effortlessly as if they were always meant to fit together like puzzle pieces. In that moment, Mina and Tenya knew their connection went beyond friendship or training – it was something deeper, something worth exploring. Mina," he said softly, his voice laced with sincerity, "would you like to go out on an official date? I would love nothing more than to explore this connection we've discovered."
A bright smile spread across Mina's face as she nodded eagerly. "I'd love that," she replied happily, her heart fluttering with excitement.
And so began their first official date – a simple yet meaningful evening spent strolling through the vibrant streets of Tokyo illuminated by twinkling city lights. They laughed, they shared stories, and most importantly, they embraced this new chapter in their lives where heroism met romance.

As they walked hand in hand, Mina couldn't help but steal glances at Tenya. His usually serious expression had softened, revealing a side of him that she found utterly captivating . But she also noticed that he looked nervous and fidgeting with the inside of his pocket then mina sees him taking her to a cherry blossom tree with a picnic underneath . It had all of her and his favourite foods . As they were enjoying the picnic halfway through Lida get on one knee and asks mina a question
Mina," he began, unable to hide his trembling voice. "There is something important that I would like to say."
Curiosity sparkled in Mina's eyes as she turned her full attention towards him. "What is it, Tenya?" she asked softly.
Taking another deep breath, Iida knelt down before her—a mix of anticipation and anxiety coursing through his veins. He pulled out a small velvet box from his pocket and opened it slowly to reveal an intricately designed engagement ring nestled inside.
Mina Ashido," he started earnestly, gazing into her eyes filled with love and adoration. "From the moment we met at U.A., you have brought so much light into my life—your radiant smile brightens even my darkest days. I got to know you even more after you had the idea that you kiss me could help me get faster and I'm so happy I decided to try it
A blush bloomed across Mina's cheeks as she realized what was happening.
"I've watched you grow stronger every day," continued Iida passionately. "Your unwavering determination inspires me endlessly." Tears welled up in Mina's eyes as joy overwhelmed her heart—her own dreams intertwining with those spoken by this man who had silently supported her all along.
"Will you make me the happiest man alive, Mina Ashido?" Iida finally asked, his voice filled with hope. "Will you marry me?"
Mina's emotions overflowed as she threw herself into Iida's arms, barely managing to utter a resounding "Yes!" through her joyful tears.
Days turned into weeks of blissful planning and excitement for their upcoming wedding. The cherry blossom tree had become an integral part of their love story—a symbol of new beginnings and eternal beauty.
Iida and Mina spent countless hours together, choosing every detail meticulously—from the venue adorned with cherry blossoms to the vibrant color palette that reflected their personalities. Their friends rallied around them, offering support and helping hand-in-hand. Uraraka skillfully designed stunning floral arrangements while Kirishima helped organize a surprise bachelor party for Iida. Even Bakugo begrudgingly contributed by agreeing to be Iida's best man.
As they walked through U.A.'s campus one afternoon, hand in hand beneath another blooming cherry blossom tree, Mina leaned against Iida affectionately.
"I can't believe we're getting married," she murmured dreamily. "It feels like a fairytale. Iida squeezed her hand gently before replying earnestly.

Their vows were heartfelt declarations of love and commitment—a promise to stand by each other through every storm life threw at them. The ceremony felt like magic—a culmination of years spent building trust and forging an unbreakable bond between two souls meant to be together.
