Pen Pals - A Tododeku Fanfiction

"Good morning, class," Mr. Aizawa said, monotone as ever.

"Good morning, Mr. Aizawa," the students responded, sounding just as dead.

Mr. Aizawa started his morning announcements. Half way through, he paused. "Wait. Where's Midoriya?"

Suddenly, he burst through the door. "Sorry, Mr. Aizawa! M-my alarm didn't go off!"

"Sure," Aizawa mumbled. "Sit down. This is an important announcement that you were about to miss."

"Sorry!" Midoriya fled to his seat and sat, pulling out his notebooks.

Mr. Aizawa continued on, "Today, you'll be assigned a pen pal."

A chorus of 'ooh's, 'ahh's, and varying questions erupted through the room.

"There's a catch, though."

Silence. Utter silence.

"Neither you, nor you're partner, will know who you are partnered with. Only I will. Every time you finish a letter, deliver it to me, sealed in an envelope with your name on it. I'll read over it, making sure it's appropriate." He glared at Minetta, causing a few giggles. "I'll write your pen pals name on the letter without the envelope and hand it out accordingly." He paused. "You will all think of themes and put them in a box. Every three weeks, I'll select a new theme. You'll all wire a letter based on that theme and turn them in. I'll hand them out the Friday of that week. Any questions?"

Iida's hand shot up. "Yes! What is the point of the themes, sir?"

"Mmm...." Aizawa growled. "You use what your partner writes to try and guess who they are. Also, for those of you who cannot keep up a conversation. It will give you something to elaborate on. Any more questions?"

"Uh, yes sir." Iida said, raising his hand again. "Is there something we are supposed to learn from this?"

"Somehow, yes. Does anyone want to guess what we'll learn from this?"

Silence. Utter s-. Muttering?

Midoriya was muttering, thinking over what they could possibly be learning. "Let's see. We have been assigned pen pals, we could be working on our penmanship, but I doubt it. Since we don't know who our pen pal is, we could be-."

"Ahem." Aizawa interrupted.

Midoriya glanced up, blushing when he realised everyone had been listening to him. "S-Sorry."

"You'll use your observatory skills in and out of class to figure out who your partner is. You'll also learn to hide your identity. Try to speak in ways that sound like it's not you. Anymore questions?

"When do we start?" Midoriya said.

"You have an hour to write your first 'greeting' letter. It must be turned in at the end of the hour so I can hand them out to your partner. You may start now."
