Diego Vendrix had finished recording today's lesson in class in secret and was preparing to head out. He knew that tomorrow would be when Izuku and Bakuguo would be back in class. Now, Diego Vendrix stood out in class. Sure, he lacked any animalistic features and the worst one could say about him was that he was not as physically fit as he should be, but he still did damn well enough in class in his grades and his Quirk to do so. However, it was also that he was headstrong and determined. He became a hero to do the right thing and because he could do so. Sure, his Quirk of creting illusions through light seemed kinda low-key, but then he showed them what he could do and they paid attention. Perhaps it was this that led to him befriending Izuku. The guy has patience for him and how... un-Japanese he was.
And not just because he was a Mexican-American. He was aware of Japanese customs and while respectful of some, others he defied and pointed out. He had disdain for Japan's heroics system that emphasized popularity. The issues he had toward Japan's view on mental health, even with the strides it has made along with many Japanese people's lack of understanding in regards to marginalized groups and their treatment. Even with the rise of Quirks, they still didn't get it. And being headstrong, he made his opinion known. Perhaps this is why he defied Aizawa'a rules in regards to not talking to Izuku or Bakuguo and letting them fall behind. He was smart and stealthy enought to do without getting caught.
However, despite that, he got along well with most of his classmates and he was appreciated for his unique perspectives and viewpoint. Besides being close to Izuku and Ururaka, he very much liked Momo. She was quite fascinated with him being a foreigner and given how he had the opportuity to talk to an attractive and intelligent friendly classmate, he liked spending time with her. And he has a jumbo sized crush on her. One he did not do much to show given how he viewed himself as not attractive. He was not ugly, but beyond his more civilian like body shape, he did not have much defining features, at least beyond not looking Japanese, but even then, there were any non-ethnic Japanese people in Japan now and have been for several decades.
Of course, there was also his other friend, who was the other foreigner of Class 1-A. He waved at her with a smile when class ended.
