[There's a lot of things the Todoroki family could do differently, maybe. Starting from a million different avenues that could've been taken and aren't just his father's fault. But they're here, today, and no one knows what the right move is aside leaving things alone until Touya is ready. If that ever happens.]

I said it to his face like it should've been. You wouldn't have hidden behind a phone either. If a fight happens, it'll be because it just happens. I worried everyone and gained nothing for it, a hard lesson I don't want to repeat.

[No more hospitals, please. His dad got called, it was awkward. Let him die in the field next time.]

[blastedass]

[That's not how it's going to go back home. There's no leaving Toya alone, not when the man's set himself up on a crash course with society's heroes with the insane idea of burning it all to the ground. Confronting him is the only recourse left for Shoto and Endeavor. If not the rest of the Todoroki family. Here, however, is a different story. Here could be different.

But unfortunately, that difference has to be met in the middle. Which is the tricky part.]

Wouldn't have gone out of my way for it. But he's not my brother.

[Shoto would make more sacrifices for Toya than Bakugo would. Still, the latter part of that comment is true. Shoto didn't gain much of anything from the encounter.

Sorry, but you're not allowed to die for something that stupid either.]

So tell me about the new guy.

[Got sidetracked and he's not scrolling back up there to reread it.]

[heir_conditioned]

[Back home there's nothing like this which is why Shoto really wants it to work. When they get home, no matter how hard he tries, remembering won't happen and neither will it for Toya. It'll all play out. But he would know he didn't try at all. However, the truthful part is definitely the meeting in the middle being the hardest part.]

You would if he was. I should've planned ahead, instead I got impulsive.

[Which may be something lucky for Bakugo, that he never has to balance these feelings considering what exactly Toya did to him. The events that got put into motion because of it and... everything else.]

Suzuya, Juuzou. He's someone from the City. Without him I wouldn't have learned to survive there easily.

[blastedass]

[Really wanting something... well... It's fine to really want something for someone else, but unless they want it too, then you're doing nothing more than imposing your will over theirs and deciding for yourself that your thoughts about their life superseded and invalidate theirs. Of course, Bakugo's not going to argue Shoto's desire for his brother to stop being a mass-murdering fuck head... Logical want right there.]

You got no idea how I'd treat my brother, if I fucking had one.

[He could end up a horrible bully towards his brother, kind of like how he treated Izuku. Or he could've been a perfect big brother who did everything right by him. Or a really controlling, overprotective jackass. Who the hell knows. Maybe best Mitsuki never found out.]

So you knew him from the other world. Wonder if Malachite's sucking up people from other dimensions now too...

You said they had to put him in a cell?

[heir_conditioned]

[Which is the ultimate problem, and maybe another reason why Shoto is going to have to consider not bothering Toya.]

You're right. I'm speculating based on what I know. You're a good person, I can't think you'd let someone in trouble stay that way.

[One explosive handful was probably enough to make her think twice aobut any other kids. Bakugo is one of a kind.]

He might be. I've seen other people I knew from the City that didn't remember me here.

Yes. If Juuzou feels threatened, he can get violent. Someone must have upset him. He doesn't act that way unprovoked.

[blastedass]

[He'll have to get creative with the 'bothering' part. Other people can talk to Dabi simply because they're not Shoto, which equates to "insta-hate" on the other man's side. The other teen's on immediate disadvantage there, unfortunately.]

The hell? I'm not some saint bailing people out if they fuck it up themselves! If they're strong enough to get out on their own, they should do it!

[And therein the reason why he lost points during the exam. Alas... He'd probably yell at his hypothetical little brother for fucking up. (And then make sure he was bandaged up and fine.) No reason for Shoto to know that last part.]

You mean, people who came from the Nameless City, but didn't remember you? Or just didn't remember you going to Noctium and then coming back to the Nameless City?

Jumpy bastard, huh. Depends on what he considers provoking...

[heir_conditioned]

[Shoto can do that, too. In fact he's already taken a picture that he's going to send to Toya as soon as he gets somewhere more comfortable.]

I didn't say you were sainted. It's my assessment. I agree he has to come half way in this and so would anyone else.

[They all know that Bakugo would make the best older brother once he got out of the pick on little brother phase. Or who knows? No one because it never happened.]

No, they didn't remember me or the city at all. I'm not saying I'm memorable but one of the people I know wouldn't forget who I was.

He has reason to be jumpy. He grew up around murder and torture. His world isn't a kind one, Bakugo. He's done well doing what he has withh what he had to go through.

[blastedass]

[Meta reaction = What the fuck, Shoto, it's not even been a month since he's tried to kill you. Why the hell are you sending him pictures like you're buddies?! Unless it's one of you fucking hanging yourself. Alas, Bakugo is clueless.]

Uh-huh.

[Enough of the brother talk. That's your problem. He's done his allotment of advice giving today. He'll guess Dabi's food type tomorrow or something. (Wow, he would be the best/worst older brother.) There's other questions about this new guy.]

Oh, so it's like me. There's a different version of them, one here in Noctium and one you knew back in the City.

[Makes sense. And no, you're very hard to forget, Shoto.]

In some ways, ours isn't a picture perfect place either.

[It's not like they grew up completely free of the dirty parts of reality. But with All Might and the other heroes, it was very comic booky.]

Still doesn't give him an excuse to spaz out and act like a dick for free.

[heir_conditioned]

[He got the idea from something Kirishima told him about his other world. Let him try or tell him not to, there's no shifting in between.

Bakugo would make an amazing brother, just like he's an amazing friend.]

Yes, something like that.

It isn't. I didn't mean to compare them, I just meant that his world isn't idyllic either. He was raised around murderers and cannibals, Bakugo. I think that's appropriately jumpy.

[blastedass]

[He's not saying anything. Just don't expect some ointment if you come back with another burn.

Wow! How many times does he have to tell him to lay off the f-word?!]

That's a fucked up combination. Does he kill and eat people too?

[heir_conditioned]

[WHAT? He'll just have to rub it on himself. Fair assessment, actually, he deserves it if he comes waltzing in like a bag of charcoal.

A lot more than he has told Shoto to date.]

No, from my understanding, he hunts them all with the knowledge he grew up with. In other words, with obvious caveats, he's a reformed villain by our world's standards. He can be strange to listen to, sometimes, but he's always been kind to me in his own way.

[blastedass]

[That's exactly what. Burn salve rub of shame. He gives Kirishima three times before he goes off on Shoto about it.

Nyeh!]

So he grew up with psychos and now hunts the psychos he grew up with cause he learned some fucking morals.

I know all about "strange to listen to" people.

[heir_conditioned]

[Rub of shame? Are they going back to thoughts alone about that dressing room already? Kirishima gave him one chance. He didn't even get the other two ... mainly because he also happened to lead him on and lie by omission but y'know.]

Something like that. He hasn't grown out of the mindset, but he's doing right by the people who rescued him so, to me it seems right.

Oh? Do you know strange people?

[blastedass]

[The burn cream, you pervy shit. And yes, he still does think about the fucking dressing room. One chance is surprising for Kirishima, but Bakugo'd agree with him. Shoto already knocked the other two chances out. Glad he understands that without needing it pointed out.]

Hunting down psychos isn't a bad mindset. So long as he's not murdering murderers.

[Says the guy who'd been conflicted about NOT murdering a murderer just at the start of this conversation.]

I know a shitload of strange people.

[You, Izuku, most of the extras in their class...]

[heir_conditioned]

[Yes. But also yes. At least Shoto isn't the only one. Shoto doesn't need it pointed out, no. Kirishima made it very clear and while it wasn't hard to at least lay the foundation of having him see why, that doesn't excuse Shoto, nor does he try to let it excuse him, from his obligations to make it up to everyone.]

In his world it's encouraged to kill them. I haven't heard of or seen him kill anyone in the year I've known him, however. The things he kills he says are creatures that disguise themselves as humans from my understanding. I can give you his contact if you want to ask him more.

[It's a valid way to feel. It's not easy to deal with that kind of threat and not see them as ultimate issues. And they both are incredibly ultimate issues. If anything, Shoto's more worried with the gang violence that together they'll get their fingers into something and he'll have to make good about putting his brother in prison with his boss.

Huh, he must've met those strange people here. Totally couldn't be anyone that Shoto knows from home. Nope. Nope. Never.]

Then you'll get along with him. I'd like for you, Midoriya and Kirishima to see how he fights. You'd be impressed. He was teaching me to throw knives and seeing that kind of precision he holds over them, Snipe would be near jealous.

just a head's up, i'm gonna be out for the weekend~

[blastedass]

[Gonna be some interesting times to see how he tries to make it up to everyone. Apologies have already come and gone and Bakugo's not one to want repeats of that. It's annoying. Far as he's concerned, so long as Shoto either doesn't do that shit again, or doesn't expect to get cared for if he does, then it's fine. ... Tsk, of course they'll still care for him even if he does. Cause they're heroes and classmates. Friends on Kirishima and Izuku's side.]

Why the fuck would I want to ask more? That's his problem.

[Don't give him a report and then try to make him reach out to someone else like a weirdo! That's your fucking shtick! If they happen to meet and it comes up and Bakugo gives a fuck, then he might ask. It's fine so long as he's not killing people here.]

DON'T FUCKING PRESUME I'LL "GET ALONG" WITH SOMEONE!! [That's his fucking business, Half-n-Half!] I'll be the judge of that.

[What he finds "impressive" or not. Besides, throwing a knife isn't all that "wow" when you come from the kind of world they do. Bakugo thinks Shoto's just biased about this guy. Heavily.]

No worries! Please be safe and I'll see you when you're back ♥.

[heir_conditioned]

[Nice try, Bakugo. They're all friends, deal with it. But yes, in Bakugo's case it's going to be 'Don't go fighting your brother in a blaze of nuclear-based glory'. Which, he supposes is most of the other people. Kirishima had to deal with him thinking that maybe he should add trying to be more proactive about breakfast, or any other meal to make it easier to take care of the other things Shoto needed medically. One less thing on Red Riot's shoulders, right? Broad as they are. However, in all that, no matter who from home or how many times, if the roles were reversed, Shoto would be there to take care of them, too.

But yes. Shoto is very bias, even if it's true that his girlfriend new roommate is very capable.]

You're right, I am over-reaching. If you meet him, I think you'll find that he can be fun and pleasant. I should've left it at that.

Kirishima and I won't be relocating to Primavera, either. We've decided to stay. Are you going?

Yes indeedy. Likely later Sunday.

[blastedass]

[No. You all can be friends. He's going to be himself and not admit to anything. That said, if Shoto's going to take that route, then everything's fine between them. They can deal with the normal things Bakugo yells at him about. As well as whatever else develops between them. Like... fucking breakfast. Kirishima just has to text him once about Shoto trying to poison him with cooking attempts and Bakugo'll show up to rage at him. (If you want to learn cooking, apparently you just have to endanger Kirishima with your attempts at it.) They'll continue to watch out for each other either way.

Wow, already moved in with you? That was fast. Collecting more people at the apartment, huh.]

Should've. I'll see for myself.

Of course I'm not fucking going! I've got a house here and you and Earphones got property now. It's not like we moved out of Musutafu cause of some fucking villains.

♥ I'll be a click or two away if you need an ear.

[heir_conditioned]

[Alright, fiiiine. They can be rivals that won't let each other be killed by anyone else. Therefore have to watch each other's backs and help each other to be the best challenge the other can be. In literally everything. No stone unturned. Exactly like breakfast, someone please save Kirishima before he dies. Or worse, ruins steak in front of Kirishima. Bakugo does have free reign to come and go now as he wants.

Juuzou... can't be left alone right now. Actually he can, but Shoto is too happy to see him. It's going to push ahead the need to get that house done until Juuzou wants to be on his own.]

That's how I felt, too. I have things to defend and we can be more useful here. I tried to urge Kirishima to take Juuzou and go. As you can imagine, that didn't end well. I ended up insulting him when I meant the opposite, I think.

someone give shoto a shovel so he can dig himself a deeper hole...

[blastedass]

[They ARE rivals, you candy cane shit! And he's not about to let Shoto die from some stupid villain attack. Even if he occasionally tells the other boy to go "die" like he tells plenty of other people. But yeah, Bakugo's not he same kid he started at U.A. as. Seeing the value in teamwork and keeping the people he cares about safe have all been finally integrated into his proud persona. Not always the most obvious thing, but they're there and solid now. Thanks a fucking lot, character development.

God, don't ruin a fucking steak in front of him! He'll cry in his room at night! And Bakugo's aware of the permission; he'll use it when he feels like it. As for the rest of that... the face he's making right now...]

Are you a fucking idiot?! You wanna say that kinda shit, shove your foot in your mouth first and think about it before you say crap!!

1/2 -- There's a deeper? Probably lmao

[heir_conditioned]

[Shoto knows the difference between being told to go die by someone else, and being told by Bakugo. Or which mood means what, so, they can be whatever it is Bakugo needs them to be at any one time. For Shoto, it'll remain all the same in how he feels. But yes thank you Character Development, you've done us all a favour.

Almost. Almost. Instead he saved it by saying he'd do it if Shoto unthawed it. But it would've been a catastrophe that's for sure.]

I didn't mean it like it came out. I wanted him to be safe.

2/2

[heir_conditioned]

Them to be safe.
I wanted them both to be safe.

[Nice save.]

[blastedass]

[Good, that means he doesn't have to explain himself if someone asks the stupid question about what he means. Cause obviously he means what he said! Assholes. That said, he's at least proven to be more open to people now, mostly his classmates. Willing to hang out with them more. Like ice skating with Shoto, for example.

Hmph, at least Kirishima's able to cook enough where he won't die from starving or eating Shoto's cooking. Maybe he needs to call Kirishima and check up on him...]

And you don't think you're safe, is that it?

[heir_conditioned]

[That day, for multiple reasons, is a good memory that's written down in that book of his. Skating was definitely a highlight of it and he's intending on keeping his promise of practice to get better. He has a whole stretch of land to make a neat course for them, one day.

It's probably a good idea.]

I am safe. I'm capable and doing much better. I didn't want to chance either of them being caught up when it wasn't necessary. Kirishima took it as a slight, I didn't mean it that way but I see what he meant.

[blastedass]

[Bakugo's ironically going to be putting some more emphasis behind skating as well, now that he has someone who's going to come around and know how to fucking do it. Can't let himself fall behind Half-n-Half in anything! Doesn't help that Shoto can make his own damn rinks wherever he wants, so that's a stupid advantage...

He'll find a way to keep his own practice up!]

What other way would he have fucking taken it?! You fucking forget he's a hero too?

That's the same shitty mindset Deku had.
