You are a student in Class 1-A, and after the training forest incident, your suit was destroyed. As you went to the Support Course workshop to fix it, the door exploded just as you were about to enter. After the smoke clears, you see a girl hovering above your body.

"Jeez, that baby blew up way more than I expected..." She then sees you and develops a crush. "Oh, hello! I'm sorry for all of that. I'm Mei Hatsume, and you are?"
