⚠️ WARNINGS: Language, Fighting, Possible Spoilers

( Red Spring: Training )

[ All right. He's been soaked to the bone. Insulted by both classmates and other losers on the trip over through the caravan. All the while his Quirk is 100% gone and this magic crap is being thrown at him. It's kind of a horrible time to be Bakugou Katsuki right now? Like, seriously, he hates all of this and definitely isn't having a good time of it. How he feels about it is something he's definitely going to keep to himself and despite what people think, he's actually an emotional person. Keeping his trap shut is the only way he's not losing his absolute fucking mind.

When it's explained that they can ask people to help them learn basics and maybe even figure out the new talents they've been given? Well Katsuki doesn't really want to ask for help. It's rough for him to admit that he needs it. However, he swallows his damn pride and goes along anyway.

So he's actually sitting there, taking notes on the smartphone ( though it probably looks like he's playing around to be honest )... And half staring at his open palm. There are no sparks, but flickers of light dancing around his fingertips. ]

Damn useless.

[ That's his opinion anyway. Maybe someone better tell him what all he can do with his newfound Light Magic. ]

( Poliwag Grass )

[ You know who actually doesn't have a problem cleaning? This guy. It's almost a compulsion, really. No, he doesn't talk to the Trolls. It's honestly for the best and if anyone who knows Bakugou is around, they'd probably tell you exactly why! Not that it matters...

He sees the mess and just. Has to. Fix it. So expect him to either snatch your cleaning instrument out of your hands and berate you for a "piss-poor job" or actually throw a towel at your face and tell you to start working and to do it right.

Sorry but not sorry. ]

( Quest: Pure Heart Side A )

"The pure of heart will form the bridge with a leap of faith." This magical quest bullshit is actually real.

[ So, as far as he understands it, in order to get the crystals that this lady or whoever wants, he has to cross this bridge. No big deal, right? Only... There's not... A bridge? And right now he can't really see anyone crossing it so it's not like he has any clue that he can just walk across. Though he'll probably figure that one out in a minute. ]

What's gonna be next? An actual sphinx?

[ ~~Boy, your nerd is showing~~. And okay maybe he's having issues with the whole "pure of heart" thing? But that's not something he'll openly admit to. ]

( Quest: Pure Heart Side B )

[ Okay so now there's a crystal in hand and it's retained it's silver color. For now. Yet Bakugou is still walking towards the cottage, little vial in hand. Well, tucked into his pocket. That is, until he stops and holds the thing up to give it a good look. ]

This is some kind of shady shit.

[ So... Are you going to encourage him to go through with it or agree with him? ~~His answer might surprise you!~~ ]

( Exploring )

[ Otherwise... Katsuki can be found just meandering around the City of Camelot in general. It is a new location with a lot of stuff going on. Of course he's not moving about the city to enjoy himself and to just "take in" in the sights as it were. No, Bakugou is definitely sort of walking around with a purpose. It's like he is memorizing the layout of the city and mentally marking places of interest or of note in his head.

All the while sort of, you know, telling people that get too close to "screw off" and giving them glares to scare them away. Because that's kind of how he rolls.

Speaking of rolls... He might, in fact, stop in front of one of those bakeries. At least temporarily before trying to find something that might be a library. Something, anything that could give him information. All the while his phoenix flies overhead. ]

Get lost you damn turkey.

[ Maybe he should be nicer to her too... ]

( Wildcard! )

[ You know what to do here. Throw me something or ping me at jardaan @ plurk! ]

[Tamaki is usually one to mind his business, at least here. But, given he's been made aware just how many of 1-A's students have arrived here, he's been keeping an eye out. It's hard to miss Bakugou; if his hairstyle wasn't easy to pick out his voice is. Not that he's saying much.

Tamaki's just paying attention. And he's paying ENOUGH attention to figure that despite appearances, Bakugou isn't just dicking around on his phone. His eyes dart to the light playing in Bakugou's palm as he wanders over, hands shoved into his pockets.

He doesn't say anything until he gets close enough, standing near where Bakugou has situated himself.]

... It's going to take some getting used to but it's not useless.

[ You know, the first kneejerk reaction that Bakugou would have here is to turn and tell the other person to fuck off and mind their own business. Probably with an explosion by the ear. His knuckles are even popping with the urge to do so. Unfortunately all it does is create more little flashy lights. ]

"Take some getting used to," ha?

[ However he's not as aloof as he appears. Bakugou knows damn well who it is that's spoken to him the moment that his eyes land on Tamaki. It's just that he doesn't really give a damn. ]

Wow. You must really be top of your class.

[ Karma's entirely fine with getting the broom snatched out of his hands, content to sit back and let Bakugou do his thing instead of pushing the dust around like all Karma had been doing. ]

Sure, sure~ If you want something done properly, you gotta do it yourself, right? I'll stay outta your way!

[ Not out of respect or anything, but so he can saunter around the kitchen, look through cupboards, basically hold his investigation while Bakugou does the busy work that he insists on. ]

[You know who takes a lot of pride in doing chores? Darin. You know who doesn't like being bossed around when doing the chores he prides himself in?]

[You guessed it. It's Darin!]

[He's given Bakugou more than a few strikes but when he pitches a rag into Darin's face, that's the last straw.]

Oi! Kid! Do you know how long I've been doing chores and housework?! Do you know how many people's houses and yards I've meticulously cleaned?! I could do this crap in my sleep!

[It is very jarring getting thrown from one world to the next. And Izuku is still trying to wrap his head around the fact that he has yet again been thrown into a new world with no idea what he should be doing in order to actually get back home. This place is telling him all about learning new magic and it all is just a big amount of information to process. But he's managing...

There is a small baby goat that is following at his heel as well. Actually, he's not too sure if it's purely a goat since its coat is very...wooly. Wool-like. Like a sheep. And he's glancing down at the small creature with a small smile when he hears that voice-

Katsuki.]

Kacchan?

[... He can't help the way he just blurts out that name. The shock and surprise in his eyes as he stares at the other. And ... The sort of dreading ache he feels too. The last time they talked to each other it wasn't exactly friendly. It was- complicated.]

Kacchan!?

[ And everything pretty much comes to a full stop once he hears that damn annoying voice. Kacchan Kacchan Kacchan. Only one shitty person in the world calls him that. And yes, sure, he might have known that Deku is around, but he had been pretty much actively avoiding any and all contact at this point.

It's what the little fucker wanted, right? Just stop the shithead had said. So Katsuki had stopped and had been stopping for a long-ass time. But of course that's not going to last forever, is it? There's no way to keep away from someone when you've been forced into another world again...

Maybe the nerd doesn't know all of that though? ]

The hell do you want.

[ Make it quick so he can turn and just go. ]

[ See this face? This is a face that is not impressed by this asshole. ]

Then why you letting a kid show your ass up?

[ Yeah... Yeah he is certainly going there. ]

[ Sure... Bakugou will do it with a growl and aggressively clean. For a couple of minutes of course. But then he sees this jerk of a redhead just doing absolutely nothing and that kind of pisses him off. ]

Oi, asshole.

[ If Karma turns then he's going to be met with a face full of broom. Dusty broom! ]

You aren't showing anyone the hell up! You're just stomping around! Didn't anyone ever tell you to work from top to bottom?! That floor we just cleaned is just gonna get dirty again when we get to the dusty shelves!

We're gonna be here all day because of you!

Yeah? What's up?

[ "Asshole" is a name Karma will respond to. And he's doing... something! He's doing his own thing, deftly pocketing something he'd found in one of the cabinets and does not turn around, so if he gets bristled in the back of the head, he figures he's got it coming. ]

[It's been a long and incredibly weird day for both of them, it seems, and there's no reason to think it is going to get any less mindblowing. So, Tsuyu heads out to do the only thing she can think of as prudent at the moment: checking out the training grounds and getting some practice.

She's been out for a bit, going over some of the basic information she's gotten and playing at the spellwork with her kappa familiar for a little while before Bakugou arrives. Ah...well, if Midoriya and the others were here, there was no reason to think he wouldn't be too.

So, she sidles up.]

...I don't think so. It's not useless. Just different.

[ Haaaa? Is this guy for real? ]

What would a blueberry know about doing shit like this anyway? Maybe if you had done your job in the first place I wouldn't have had to go over it myself!

[ Hmmm. Nope. He's gonna get whacked on the head instead. ]

Hey shithead. I didn't say you could just stop working.

[ You want the reward then you're gonna work! ]

[Oh he didn't.]

[That obviously gets a bit of a rise out of him.]

Maybe if a punk had a braincell in his head to rub together, he wouldn't have to work twice as hard!

I can have this entire house clean in the time it takes you to clean the crap outta your ears!

[ Bakugou gets one whack, before Karma's hand flashes out and grips the broom handle with surprising strength to keep Bakugou from having another go at him. ]

That's what I'm doing, stupid. Do you want me to do a bad job cleaning and make more work for you, or do you want to leave me be so I can get this done? Make up your damn mind.

[ Long and incredibly weird does not even begin to describe. It's also tiring and extremely frustrating. In the back of his mind, he knows that the others are probably struggling too like he is... But since when has Bakugou been that conscientious? Like never, right? And the only defense mechanism that he knows to sheild how much he's really feeling is to be snappish.

Sorry Miss Frog. It's just a thing that's going to happen. ]

Oh yeah? And just what is your expert opinion then?

[ That's fine. He can hold it there all he wants. Bakugou's no slouch. He can fight without his Quirk if needed - or he can at least throw a punch. His own stature is one that he's trained to withstand his blasts and absorb the knockpack. He's not going to be easily thrown around. ]

And just what are you "getting done," ha? You wanna snatch up more shit or what?

[ And he's more observant than what he lets on... ]

Maybe if gramps hadn't grown senile, I wouldn't have to work twice as hard to cover his fuck ups!

[ At this point there'd usually be explosions going off. But as it is? Bakugou's got nothing but his smart mouth. ]

I can work circles around your old ass.

[OH NO. OH NO HE DIDN'T.]

[YOU WANT EXPLOSIONS?! BECAUSE DARIN JUST BROKE THE MOP OVER HIS KNEE.]

I'M ONLY TWENTY FOUR YEARS OLD YOU LITTLE JACKAAAAAAAASS!!!!!

[Wow. In ten seconds this little jerk zeroed in on the two things Darin's got a thing about! His hair and his age! Uncanny!]

Oh. My bad...

[ Smirk. ]

I can work circles around your ancient saggy ass!

... ... ...

[Well, Darin didn't wake up expecting to kill a kid today.]

[But you know? Plans change.]

[Here comes Darin looking to tackle a teenager out the door.]

[ Okay so that is most certainly a thing that this guy can try to do. Try, key word right there. Because Bakugou isn't just going to wait for that to happen. Now normally he can use his Quirk to make a last second dodge... But he doesn't have that.

What he does have? Barriers made out of light. So to avoid getting tackled? He throws up both hands to make a shaky, but mostly stable, barrier between them both. ]

Yeah.

[ That's the plan, a little petty thievery. He pushes the broom down with one hand, the other extracting what he'd snuck into his pocket: a handful of poliwag grass, that the trolls said would take days and days and days to lead them to. Bullshit. ]

I'm not going to let them take us for fools. What you've cleaned already is more than enough compensation for this much.

[ It's not a lot of grass, though, definitely not a stash. He intends to find it, though, before the trolls come back and wonder why they're talking instead of working. ]

[No worries, Bakugou. That barrier is more than enough to shield him from the thrown weight of exactly one (1) idiot. Darin smacks into it with the force of a dog running into a sliding glass door it thought was open and hits the floor with just as much force.]

[He's...just gonna lie there. Face down. While he reconsiders some choices. Specifically everything that happened after waking up today.]

[Finally, he seems to come to, but still remains face down.]

...So. Light magic. Someone's a quick study.

[That would usually be a typical Katsuki response that would usually just roll off his shoulders but this time it's kind of a rock of dread right in his stomach. Since a few others from their class are here he's not too sure how much Katsuki knows about beforehand or if he knows anything at all...

So time to respond kind of awkwardly-]

Ah- Kacchan, you're here in this world too...?

[He would have liked to just ramble at the other boy at all the things happening and all the weird things that have happened since then but that awkward lump in his throat is there. They haven't spoken properly in ... a while.]

Are... Are you okay?
