Living Doll of MHA

The days passed by quickly after Max made his grand return to the gang.

His actions were swift and merciless as he dealt with several troublesome elements within the gang.

The days of everyone soon became a little more peaceful as everyone was able to enjoy a brief period of calm after the storm had passed.

Surveillance remained on several key figures within the gang and that included Butch who was viewed as being slightly suspicious.

His rise to power was far too fast and that was paired with his current capabilities.

It did seem like Butch had risen to a position that he did not have the capabilities to handle.

Butch may have had good instincts at times but he lacked the smarts needed to strategise and effectively lead others through the many challenges someone in his position would have to deal with.

Each of his successes seemed like he was on a lucky streak at times.

Such a rise made it seem like he had a more powerful Quirk than what he was believed to possess or he had someone with such a Quirk assisting him.

That person assisting him could either have a Quirk suited to helping him or that person was very capable.

Even if his loyalty was without question and his reputation was very good for treating his fellow gang members under him as family, he could still not escape the eyes and ears of Max.

While all of that was taking place behind the scenes, Tiffany had been keeping an eye on things inside and outside of the gang's influence.

Her plan had been working well and she had been able to expand her influence a little at a time.

Among the toys that had been donated to the families of the police officers, Tiffany had been able to plant several eyes and ears into their households.

Most of them were mainly located in their children's rooms but some were put on display on a shelf or somewhere else in another room.

Even those without children got one too so that they would not feel left out or discriminated against.

They could be considered as something to be put on display for them or they could choose to give them as gifts to their family members or friends.

Those family members or friends could still be people that those police officers would visit at times so it was still possible to gain information at times depending on their work ethics related to whether they discussed work or private matters there.

It was the same with everyone else.

Everything depended on if they took their work home with them or if they had any private meetings or phone calls at their home.

Her network of information did start to expand more as she came to learn some things even if it was useless.

If someone else were to obtain information that she possessed then they could do a great deal of damage with it all.

Someone with malice toward another who possessed a portion of the information that she collected could easily make use to target that person or their family.

It could range from anything like blackmail to murder depending on the situation.

Information was power and if the right information was obtained about a person, it could become their greatest weakness that others could use against them or exploit for their benefit.

The more that Tiffany grew up in her new environment, the more she learned and matured.

It was a much better place than where she had lived before and she had far more opportunities to make use of.

Things that she learned on her own or from observing others had no longer been things she could learn.

She had others to teach her things in person and guide her through the process.

Errors that she would make or bad habits she had gained would be corrected causing her to make new leaps in areas where she struggled and could not progress.

Even though Tiffany was not particularly familiar with combat, she was able to get a grasp over her body and how to fight using it from her daily training under Butch.

Puck would occasionally take over to provide some change in sparring partner so that she would not become too used to fighting one person who used the same style of fighting and had the same fighting habits.

Not only was she improving her combat sense but she had been making some more investments toward herself.

More toys of a more dangerous nature were being built which cost quite a lot but that was not all.

Tiffany began investing more in her body as she began testing the limitations of how much of certain materials of dolls, toys, statues or mannequins she could absorb.

She started with smaller objects first and found that it took a little time to fully absorb one.

The smaller objects that were made of weaker materials or had simpler structures were absorbed much faster than those that were made from tougher or more complex structures and materials.

As the complexity, mass and size increased, so did the time needed to absorb it and faster that she felt like she was reaching the limit of her Quirk each time.

If there was anything that she found out from such experimentation then it was that continued absorption of such things had gradually increased her limitations of her Quirk almost like muscles being built up.

Her porcelain skin and other fragile body parts had already begun to become more durable with each absorption.

Her body may not have been free from being damaged if she went up against a tough opponent in a fight or was hit with a weapon but it was still a huge improvement compared to what it was like previously.

The hits from Butch were often held back enough to prevent her harm during spars and Puck did the same but as she made progress with her improvements, the same level of power they used did not do the same damage as before to her.

What was the best part about it all was that each time she was injured during sparring, all that she needed to do was go back to her room and begin absorbing something to heal herself.
