video: un; midoriya

[procedere]

[So. Here's that green-haired, freckled teen that his loud bff was going on about. Izuku sits cross-legged on the bed in his bedroom of his newly provided apartment that he has yet to decorate or anything to personalize the space. He looks a little sheepish as he checks if it seems to be working. He's used to something similar, having this sort of technology back home, at least.]

Um. Hi? I'm Midoriya. That is, uh, Midoriya Izuku. I guess a lot of you already kind of know of me from Kacchan earlier...

[He's sorry. Really. It isn't like he asked Bakugo to go off like that.]

I was just trying to get my bearings, I guess. I heard there's school, or at least classes, here. To learn about our new abilities? I think I'd like that. I want to learn to use mine. To at least learn how to control it. If not to help out with it, and my Quirk. Plus, I want to look into prosthetics to help Kacchan. Maybe learn more about music....? I'm sure there's probably a library or something I can check! And I want to be useful and help out, maybe figure out a part-time job?

[......Yeah. That talk that he had with Bakugo about not overdoing it. Izuku might already be wanting to do more than he might realistically be able to manage. Because he's a Nerd and actually wants to Learn about this place and the abilities, and wants to help out as much as he can. This kid is just not used to the idea of not keeping busy, not being useful. Still in that habit of feeling like he has to prove himself.]

spring. which looks like um, wind? air? and healing or something, i think, from all the information we were given when we got here?

[At least that seems less likely to potentially hurt himself with? He could probably figure using the wind to enhance his abilities like Black Whip.]

[lyingheart]

Wind, yes. Healing is one of them too, but there are others. I'd recommend reaching out to Mikasa Ackerman or... even Frieda Reiss, to ask some questions about Spring. Both are in the Spring guild from what I know, but also have been here for a while. Mikasa for over two years. She's not the chattiest person, and she tends to forget not everyone's built like a beast, but she's efficient and unlikely to have ignored what Spring's offered.

Frieda is a vampire so be forewarned she'll be dealing with the same sets of issues that Bakugo does.

The guild does have more information on the powers related to its season, since they're headed by the only local with the same power-set. It's also got rundowns on more than you may want to know for Ellipsia and what issues were here historically as well as in present times since Outsiders began arriving.

ackerman-san and reiss-san? okay. er, built like a beast? i mean. i do okay, i guess? with sparring if that sort of thing is what you mean?

i don't mind about her being a vampire. just so long as she's handling it okay.

but thanks. i'll ask them and have a look into the guild.

[lyingheart]

You'll understand if you spar with her. Though if you want to spar across seasons or for hand-to-hand experience, I'm the better partner.

( Learning from Mikasa was more learning in spite of Mikasa. At least when it comes to fighting, when it's so instinctual to the other young woman. )

She managed swim lessons at night without sinking her teeth into my neck, so she seems to be doing better than the ones lured out into the forests across the river.

[procedere]

i don't mind. i've been sparring and training with my classmates back home and everyone has unique quirks. so i'm used to sparring against others with different abilities.

ah? that's progress, then! that's good!

[lyingheart]

Then she'll be good for your flexibility. Don't feel bad if she can outcompete what you'd expect. It's literally how she is.

( and here she is, basically complimenting Mikasa, but in this it's simply sincere and factual. navigating other things... is not Mikasa's strength. fighting? is, even if it's not necessarily where Mikasa's heart is at. possibly. )

Bakugo's been doing well on that count? Does he still not have a parasol for himself?

[procedere]

i wouldn't want to hurt her. but i don't mind sparring if it helps keep us from getting rusty. even here, with these quests, we might still need to step up, right?

yeah. he had one at the beach when i first met up with him here? unless something happened to it since then, he has a parasol. and i don't mind helping him out if he needs.
