[ See, Ochako, it's exactly when you start laughing after calling it really intense like that when Daniel starts to worry a little bit.. Maybe he's just a little worried about the other's cheerful nature covering up some potential worrying stuff with cheer, okay. Especially when the situation she and Midoriya come from seems to be pretty intense, especially for a bunch of kids.

.. though this story is.. relatively harmless, he supposes. It's not something Daniel would do to a kid, but he does realise the standards for that sort of thing have to be pretty different between the place he comes from and the place Ochako comes from, given the nature of kids and their quirks. ]

Well, you are cute like a hamster, you know.

[ It's hard to think of her any other way. Just look at how she's sitting there, still cradling that puppy Omen. ]

How long were you in that ball for though? [ On a more serious note.. In fact, there's definitely a hint of concern creeping into Daniel's tone, compared to the hamster joke, which he just smiled about..

He just can't help but fuss. It's in his senseidad blood. ]

I imagine it must have been tough on you if it lasted for a long while.
