[Shouto is just so calm! It is somehow both relieving and vexing to hear him respond like nothing is amiss, like she isn't, you know, a half-werewolf, but she bites back her frustration and tries to think about... Deku. Deku trying to find a cure, Deku working himself to the bone over something that may or may not actually be possible...
Ugh, why is every thought so annoying? She grits her teeth as she looks down at her hands, because seriously, being a werewolf is the worst!]
[Shouto would say being calm is one of his best traits. Especially in situations like this.
... It doesn't work quite so well when people are pressing on his buttons, but at least it's not happening now. Instead it's his friend who's become a werewolf, which isn't great, but it's definitely a step above being constantly being told he's Endeavor.]
[Would Shouto make a calm werewolf? Probably so. Ochako, however, is not a calm werewolf, and she gives him a sharp look when he says that. This was never a matter of trust! She trusts Deku to always do his best, and she trusts that he'll do what he thinks is right, but finding a cure for this werewolf... curse?]
He could be wasting his time, Todoroki-kun! He isn't a doctor!
[Oooh, that was... snippy. She should apologize, she knows, but before she can settle back down, she feels that oh-so familiar burning sensation in her eyes. Tears? Really? This isn't the time for tears of frustration, and she reaches up to wipe them away.]
None of this is fair.
[Ochako rarely complains about anything; wolf Ochako wants to complain about everything.]
[Shouto would only look like a clam werewolf. He'd be stressed out right under the surface, but years of repressing his feelings might trump instincts.]
We don't have doctors here.
[Because it's true. Besides, what doctors would know about werewolf diseases?]

He gives a nod.]
Izuku's safe. He's looking for a cure, but I'm trying to get him to rest too.

But how does he know if there really is a cure?

He does. I trust him.
[Endlessly and absolutely.]

It's not. Nothing about this is fair.
