un: DYNAMIGHT, video

[boombam]

[Katsuki usually doesn't do video, because he much prefers being an asshole behind a wall of text but this was important. This was something that needed to be said-- and shown-- and text wouldn't work.

So the video opens up with the blonde sitting at a table, looking stern and already mad without even saying anything yet.]

I have just one thing to say, and I'm going to keep this short and sweet.

[He pulls out his phone (using a laptop to make this post in the first place) and he scrolls through his camera roll for a moment before showing it off. Letting everyone see a boy with green curls and freckles, who had his picture taken when he wasn't looking and was smiling so bright and happy.]

This? This is Deku. If you hurt him, or insult him, or make him cry I WILL track you down and break your legs.

Or even worse: I'll turn 'ya into a vampire! So you better watch your mouth around him and treat him with respect, goddamn it!

[And the feed ends there! It really was short and sweet--]

So you'd prefer to start training before then? That can be arranged.

[boombam]

[Katsuki huffs, and puffs up like a cat in response to Annie's sass.]

You can train with me any time you want 'cuz I ain't fucking dying!

[He's survived so much-- he won't let himself die at this rate.]

[lyingheart]

Good. When's easiest for you?

( time to either have no regrets, or one regret. who? yes. )

[boombam]

Sooner rather than later. I'm missing an arm and getting a new one installed in August. I'll be useless for a few months afterwards and I'd like to kick your ass ASAP.

[lyingheart]

It's still amazing they can do anything about amputated limbs here.

Don't need hands or arms for legwork. We'll start you there. What time of the day?

[boombam]

You know what's the real amazing part? The fact that my hunk of metal arm is supposed to work with my winter powers. I can't wait to fuck around with that.

Also evening or nighttime is the best for me. Can't go in the sun.

[lyingheart]

It's a messed up blessing, but it's going to be useful, no doubt about that.

Evening then, after sunset but when there's still light in the sky. It's direct exposure to sunlight? Or will indirect affect you too.

[boombam]

Indirect is fine. It's not strong enough if it's not directly on my skin. Even clothes help but I don't feel like sparring midday in a hoodie or cloak.

[lyingheart]

( ... saying this to the person who spars and fights at all times in a hoodie. )

Good, then dress in whatever's comfortable and lets you move. We can borrow the normal training dummies, wrapped in padding to save your bones. Won't prevent bruising. Is that more of an issue since your condition's changed, or less of one, or unchanged?

[boombam]

It became an annoying issue. But you don't have to worry about going easy on me or if I'm going to bruise or not.

I spar every single day with other people. It's not like I'm a noob or I'm all that handicapped even with the missing arm.

[lyingheart]

What is a noob?

[boombam]

Newbie.

[lyingheart]

Huh. Here I read it like "knob."

[boombam]

Why the hell would it be pronounced like that? There's two o's after each other. It's clear that it'd be pronounced as "newb".

[lyingheart]

Based on our clearly shared knowledge of languages that certainly aren't being translated for us live time?
