*During a test after Aizawa left the class*
Kirishima: Psst! Sero! What did you get for question 6?
Sero: I got pollution.
Mina from across the room: What? I got 79 apples.
Kirishima: How did either of you get that?
Sero: I just looked at the cans and saw that there was a lot, which equals pollution when people throw them in the ocean.
Kirishima: I’m sorry, what-
Mina: I don’t think you did that right ‘cause I just counted all of the apples on the other side and it was 79. You definitely looked too much into it. What did you get, Kiri?
Kirishima, close to tears: I got that the store was too small because the shelf looked overpacked.
Kaminari: Wow, I guess I’m the only smart one here.
Kirishima, Sero, and Mina turning to Kaminari: What did you get?
Kaminari: I got that the store was in America since they have both apples and cans.
Sero: Holy shit, that’s genius.
Mina: I should have thought of that!
Kirishima, erasing his answer: If it’s in America then the shelves are probably packed because they probably stocked up that morning! Thanks, man!
Sero: Yeah, you’re a lifesaver!
Mina: Now, there’s no way I’ll fail! You’re the best!
Kaminari: No problem, my dudes.
Bakugo, snapping his fourth pencil: THIS IS A HISTORY TEST! THE QUESTION’S ASKING WHAT YEAR YOU THINK IT IS IN THE STORE AND IT’S MULTIPLE CHOICE! THE ANSWER IS RIGHT THERE! HOW DID YOU FUCK THAT UP!?
Kaminari: Silly, Bakugo. Those are the expiration dates of the cans and apples.
Bakugo: *screams and throws his desk at Kaminari*
Kaminari breaks his only pencil by accident in the middle of class but instead of asking someone else to borrow theirs, he goes over to Sero and asks for some tape to fix it as a joke. However, Sero just smiles and says "Sure! Hang on a sec" and rips some tape from his elbow and hands it to him and Kaminari has to try to contain his laughter as he heads back to his seat.
As time goes on, he constantly asks Sero for tape for his totally destroyed binder and his broken sandals that and other stupid shit like a white bracelet but made of tape. All of this is just to see how long Sero would allow it. Surprisingly, he was never told to stop, instead he was just questioned on how he kept breaking his stuff so fast. With that, it became so commonplace that the other students caught on and would ask him for tape for their pencils, binders, worksheets, legs, etc.
Everyone approaches him differently. Just to name a few:
Bakugo just straight up tells him to give him tape, Kirishima just asks him with a goofy smile and rubs the back of his head and afterwards tells him he's the best, Momo asks kindly and then makes him his favourite chocolate bar to thank him, Uraraka smiles at him and asks him how he's doing before she asks for it, Midoriya is awkward and after he asks he will immediately start rambling about how he doesn't have to give him any if he doesn't want to, Mina's like "Bitch my leg hairs ain't getting any shorter. Your girl need tape", Tokoyami makes the exchange as quick as possible by apologizing for the intrusion and then thanking him for his generosity, and Todoroki is sooooooo hecking awkward and acts like he's trying to pick something to order from a menu but isn't ready like "can I uh have some... uh... you have tape, right? Like, your elbows? ...tape?"
All the while, Sero is wondering why nobody just gets it from the tape dispenser at the front of the class, but he is nonetheless happy to help.
Bonus:
Aizawa tells them to stop harassing Sero for tape and disrupting the class, even threatening them with extra homework if they don't stop. But this doesn't last very long as one day while everyone's writing a test or something, he just casually walks over to Sero and asks him for tape because he ran out and he doesn't want to waste money on more when there is a living tape dispenser that "won't forsake him like the others."
