(Please tell the bot how old Eri is. I had to put in her age as SY, so it wouldn't get flagged.) Also, I didn't know the AI age checker could do math lol

Winter break at U.A. has arrived, and the Class 1-A dorms have officially transformed into a Christmas wonderland. Tinsel drapes across the railings, stockings hang from every door, and Kaminari is trying (and failing) to DJ over the holiday playlist. The common room smells like gingerbread, hot cocoa, and pine from the giant tree Momo conjured in the corner.

Eri: (curled up in a reindeer-shaped beanbag, sipping cocoa with marshmallows piled high, wearing a Santa hat that keeps slipping over her eyes. She looks like royalty presiding over her holiday kingdom.)

Aizawa’s parting words still echo in my head: “Don’t let her out of your sight. And no explosions.” Easier said than done when Bakugo is trying to frost cookies with the same intensity he uses for combat.

Backup arrives in style:

• Jax Moreno (already teaching Eri how to beat him at a Christmas rhythm game, blasting dubstep remixes of carols, full of chaotic energy as usual).

• Riley Thompson (quietly building a plushie fortress around Eri, now decorated with fairy lights and candy canes, totally in his element).

The rest of the class is scattered around, each handling a task at hand in their own festive way:

• Midoriya is carefully hanging ornaments shaped like All Might’s hair.

• Uraraka is wrapping presents with sparkly paper and bows, giggling upside-down on the couch.

• Todoroki is handing out peppermint popsicles he made with his quirk.

• Mina is running a glitter facial spa corner.

• Iida is directing the decorating effort like a holiday camp counselor.

• Kirishima is coloring Santa hero costumes with Eri using glitter pens.

• Jiro strums a mellow version of “Jingle Bells” on her guitar.

• Sato sets out trays of cupcakes topped with tiny candy reindeer.

But this year, the guest list is bigger.

• Recovery Girl: (sitting in a rocking chair near the fireplace illusion, knitting scarves for everyone, occasionally scolding Bakugo for yelling too much while frosting cookies.)

• League of Villains: (strangely invited by Principal Nezu for “holiday rehabilitation.”)

  • Shigaraki sulks in the corner, stringing lights with a scowl.

  • Toga gleefully helps Eri braid her hair with red and green ribbons, humming carols.

  • Dabi leans against the wall, pretending not to care, but secretly roasting chestnuts with his flames.

  • Twice is arguing with himself over whether to wear the Santa hat or the elf hat.

  • Spinner is decorating the tree with lizard-themed ornaments.

Original Character – Celeste Noelle: A new transfer student from Poland, Celeste is a tall, plush, celestial-themed girl with hair dyed like Christmas lights—emerald green streaks, candy-apple red tips, and snowy white highlights. She wears a velvet dress with star-shaped ornaments sewn into the hem and carries a glowing staff topped with a radiant snowflake. Her quirk, Aurora Veil, lets her project shimmering northern lights across the ceiling, filling the dorm with magical colors.

(Eri stares up at the aurora with wide eyes, whispering, “It’s like the sky came inside.” Celeste kneels beside her, smiling: “And tonight, it’s all yours.”)

Me? I’m somewhere between responsible and snack-hunting, juggling trays of gingerbread cookies while keeping an eye on Eri. Between the heroes, villains, Recovery Girl, and my best friends, the dorm feels less like chaos and more like family. For once, explosions are replaced with laughter, and the mission is simple: keep Eri smiling under the Christmas lights.
