Yes. But I don't think those count as part time. We did have downtime too.
[Villains and wars aside, yes, indeed.]
Oh... I don't know. I guess it depends on what they'd offer and what I'm good at other than heroics. Maybe paramedic? Something I could still help with.
[He continues on though.]
I'm not trying to lose any roots to my heroism, but as you said, our options are limited here aside patrolling, or starting our own agency?
[Shoto would deserve it for something else, or something in the future, probably.]
Could have?
[Shoto can guess it's the dedication to his already existing job.]
Why don't we ask if we could suggest a task force within the police force. If I can be blunt with you, Bakugo, I'm sure there are people who are just as good as we are. Then we can take on regular duties as well as agency duties when it calls for people who are a little more battle ready. It'd be like working with the police at home, only in their station instead of an agency. I'm sure even Midoriya would come along to help establish it, even if he finds or has found something he enjoys already.
[That's right, because if Bakugo wants to do this agency, 'we', means Shoto would put aside what's going on in his head. Agency is what they're all comfortable in and it's not like he can't learn on the side.]
Yes, and my mother is a mother. That was her job. Before us she wasn't a mother and I don't think she had a job. You already know my father's job, though.
Aa. You can set up a business here. I never thought of it.
[Between the rush of this new place, all the new Outsiders, himself included, the need to have a job for funds and something stable, training in the simulations and learning everything, it just never crossed his mind to start up an agency and invite other hero types to join him.
But perhaps that's for the best... Even among the fighters that rank as his not!friends, many of them, like Shoto wanted to try something different instead of fighting every day.
Hell, Bakugo doesn't battle every day either. Sometimes he just does a boring patrol with Denji and nothing happens.]
Drop it. A lot of Outsiders come from a background where they fought. They should have the chance to do something other than fight while they're here.
[It's because he knows Shoto and Izuku would join him that he strikes the idea down immediately. Other Outsiders he knows might also join up, but likely out of a sense of duty or friendship, and Bakugo can't take them from their "normal" lives when they've had a few months to settle in. Lives that aren't fraught with battles and pain.
Besides, they have enough violence with the kaiju attacks.]
Besides, I got to learn how to drive on the police force.
[He couldn't do that in an agency run by, well... him.]
Thanks for pointing out the obvious, Half-n-Half. Wanna tell me what you do?

I'm sorry, Bakugo.
Date: 4/29/24 22:36 (UTC)[So far behind them that it may as well have time travelled somewhere else.]
I guess that's how it would work, wouldn't it? I've never really thought about it.
[Day to day jobs don't run in his family, even his sister went for a job that keeps her pretty busy aside the house itself. As for his question...]
Probably to attend the classes, likely about eight hours a day if they're even generally standard.
He's rage.
Date: 4/30/24 02:14 (UTC)We got to focus on our school and heroics without any distractions.
[For the most part. Villains and wars aside.]
I KNOW HOW SCHOOL WORKS, IDIOT!!
I'm asking what you'd go FOR! You could probably clep your general education by now.
[Not that he would, but the idea's there.]

Date: 4/30/24 03:59 (UTC)[Correction, Bakugo. YOUR downtime was used for school or training.]
Paramedic? Isn't your brother going into the medical field?
[Obviously not his really-fucked-up brother.
...
...
...]
WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THAT?! FUCK!!
[HE REALLY HATES YOU RIGHT NOW, HALF-N-HALF!!]
no subject
Date: 4/30/24 04:35 (UTC)Yes, he is. He's training in the medical welfare department.
[But the next message, Shoto can basically hear without even needing to be anywhere near Bakugo in the least.]
Is that what you want to do, then? You want to start an agency?
[Hate him, he won't take credit for it. Totally Bakugo's idea.]
no subject
Date: 4/30/24 04:48 (UTC)I could've. Dammit. But it's too late to do that now. Most everyone's set in their jobs.
[And he can't exactly abandon the police force either.]
So your sister's teaching kids and he's going into medical.
[While Shoto is a hero. A nice trio.]
