Oh. Are you reading this in my voice? You know there's a small chance that people have that ability. I thought it was a quirk when I first learned about it, but inner monologue is not something everyone can do. I'm not surprised you can.
I will, and then I'd like you to come with me if I can find it here. Or something of equivalence.
I'm trying to read it in yours right now. I could call you but this is more fun.
[Who wouldn't? A voice like that?]
A conversation I had with someone about movies. Did you know there's a category of movie that might have no actions? I'm trying to figure out what that would be like, but I think it'd be boring.
That's what I said, not in those words. I told them I'd prefer an 'action movie'. They were asking me what genre I liked and if there's an action movie, I would like that type. Maybe nothing too frightening before bed.
Hm... I don't know. I'm still talking to them so maybe I will ask, but I thought I'd rather ask you first. You're fun to be around.
I thought it was you. That's alright, it could've been someone's idea of a joke. I'm not very good at humour either. You're coming though, right? To a movie? If I can find a theatre here that has the moving kind.
No that's not what it's for. It doesn't matter, I'll look up the movie but I'll still take you to eat first. I'd cook but I don't think I have much around to make anything taste very good.
[Somehow he gets the feeling he's not being told the entire story...
...but doesn't want to try prying it out of Shoto any further. Who the hell knows what someone in the dorm would do, either a friendly gift, a stupid prank, or even SYNTHIA doing some bullshit social experiment again.]
Just fucking say that next time.
I'm not sitting through two damn movies. Dinner. Movie. Something else if you're gonna need more.
What if we went to a movie before dinner, then went to dinner and then another movie. And if we were to have time before or in between, I'd like to go to the arcade again. Have you ever been to one?
No, I was thinking of texting him after to figure out something to do together. I don't mind training and sparring or competition, but I don't have to focus on that right now here. I want to try normal things.
[Others have said the same. Wanting to step away from the troubles of their worlds and take their time here as a new beginning, or at least a break to try something different for a while.
Is that wrong or irresponsible? ... Not really. It's not like they can do much else. Bakugo's already tried to go home a few ways, and short of storming LILITH's main HQ, all failed.
Wasting time, energy, opportunity to sit around and mope is pretty stupid too.]
[That's an easy question to at least answer and Shoto does answer it timely.]
The other day, when I had time, I went on the subway and rode it from end to end. I'm sure other people would get off and that would be more normal, but I felt like I needed to see all the stops. When I'm more established, I'd like to go shopping or find a gym that's public, not semi-private like at UA or private entirely like at home. I may even see if there are sports teams here. Maybe I will learn to swim better or I can put my running techniques to good use on a track team. I may even go to a bookstore.
[Shoto doesn't think it's the pretty, he's pretty sure it's the scar.]
It's alright, I'm used to it.
Well... when I'm battling a Kaiju, then I won't go to school. Thank you for the recommendation, I will message them to ask when I've made a concrete decision on what I think is normal.
[He's pretty even with the scar, as the girls in their class continue to prove.]
That's not what I fucking said.
Haa?! Ask him about his school experience so you know what you're getting into! None of this shit is normal! We got fucking kidnapped from our own world, as mercenaries!
[Trying to establish a "normal" life here is... well, probably the ideal so you don't end up going mad, but... Ugh. Bakugo refuses to school here because it feels like "replacing" U.A. and he just can't do that.]

Date: 4/27/24 08:21 (UTC)[The sad thing is, it also still sounds like Shoto.]
Yeah? And they're all boring as fuck. You wanna see something, it'd better have action or something worthwhile in it.

Where the hell did you get a coupon in the first place?

Date: 4/27/24 08:33 (UTC)I thought it was you. That's alright, it could've been someone's idea of a joke. I'm not very good at humour either. You're coming though, right? To a movie? If I can find a theatre here that has the moving kind.
no subject
Date: 4/27/24 08:35 (UTC)I didn't send you a movie coupon. Was it left outside your door or something?
[Now he's curious and a little suspicious.]
If you find one that doesn't suck.
no subject
Date: 4/27/24 08:42 (UTC)No that's not what it's for. It doesn't matter, I'll look up the movie but I'll still take you to eat first. I'd cook but I don't think I have much around to make anything taste very good.
no subject
Date: 4/27/24 08:54 (UTC)What?! No! Tell me how you got the damn coupon!
[This shouldn't be that hard! And then Shoto goes and adds a meal onto it!]
You could've just said you wanted to go out for the evening, idiot.
1/2
Date: 4/27/24 09:00 (UTC)It was at my door. Just there one day.
[That... makes it sound easier than explaining all that.]
Yes, okay. Go out with me then, Bakugo.

no subject
Date: 4/27/24 09:19 (UTC)Of course I've been to arcades. Who the hell took you to the one here?
[Shoto's been getting around.]
no subject
Date: 4/27/24 09:37 (UTC)I took me. There was a party, so I went. I didn't meet anyone there, but I got to play a lot of games.
no subject
Date: 4/27/24 19:13 (UTC)Arcade, dinner, movie.
Tch, that sounds fucking lame. You didn't even call Deku?
no subject
Date: 4/28/24 07:11 (UTC)[At least now they have a gameplan.]

no subject
Date: 4/29/24 02:19 (UTC)You probably got stared at for just riding the subway.
If you want to joint a sports team, you'd be better off looking at the schools. The other teams are already established as pros.
Why do you want a public gym?
no subject
Date: 4/29/24 02:21 (UTC)Maybe that, too. We're still school age. Maybe I'll see if they have schools. Isn't it normal to go to school?
I could meet people with fitness interests. Maybe I'll meet someone you'd like, too. You're a likeable person.
no subject
Date: 4/29/24 02:33 (UTC)[They stare because you're pretty.]
Of course it's normal, when you're not in a kaiju war! Ask Shashou about the one he went to.
[Bakugo self-schools since he's working another job.]
You wanna get punched?

Date: 4/29/24 04:00 (UTC)It's alright, I'm used to it.
