May catch-all
🧙 WHO: Gokudera and absolutely anyone
⚔️️ WHAT: Mid-May catch all (training and other stuff that comes up)
🕒 WHEN: Mid... May? Before the event
🗺️ WHERE: Multiple places
⚠️ WARNINGS: violence, mentions of past sexual slavery, language
A. Training Grounds
Larry is sitting out in the middle of the training field, blowing bubbles to contain lit sticks of dynamite Gokudera is throwing into the air. Gokudera has discovered he has elemental magic and is working on what he can with wind, trying to push the bubble back towards his familiar, or up safely away from them both. He’s not successfully done either, and has just been creating useless gusts. The dynamite explodes in the bubble, the bubble pops, and knocks him down. This is getting very very tiresome, and his gusts don’t seem to be getting any stronger or going where he thinks he’s aiming them.
“Fuck... why isn’t it working?” He glares and pushes himself back up.
B. The Red Spring
No new arrivals from Namimori, it seems. Gokudera had spent the day watching new arrivals climb the cliff, wondering if he’d see someone from home. The journey back had been familiar and helped somewhat to clear his mind. But he’s been looking forward to bathing in the Red Spring. He feels partially new to Avalon after his reawakening, gone for years, and his body aged and scarred, when he’d apparently never left Camelot. Anyone who recognizes Gokudera from last month or any time prior will see the difference. Those who responded to his network post will already understand. But for those who have never met him, he’s acting very much like a new arrival.
The teenager lowers into the spring, the trunks he’s wearing keep him decent, but there is nothing to hide the vivid burn scars and long tally-marks down his back. There’s a black leather half-choke collar about his neck, and occasionally, there is a glow from beneath it, against the skin of his neck that looks like it’s burned many times over. Despite the fact that there is electricity attached to his neck, he fully submerges for a moment, then surfaces and decides he’ll play with the more illusory side of his light magic.
If you are unlucky enough to be anywhere near him, he’ll walk right up and offer you his entire left arm. It’s not real. It’s a smoke bomb, a prank, but hey, as far as your character should be able to tell, he just took off his arm and is handing it to you.
“Hey can you watch this for me? Thanks.” And then he’ll be getting out of the water so his familiar can be amused.
C. Wildcard! Seriously. Do whatever.

[Closed to Midoriya]
He's walked for a good while, not really thinking about where he's going, just lost to his thoughts when he steps on a branch angled oddly against the grown.
"Hm?" Why is this stick poking up like that? He leans down and realizes it makes a little fence that leads up to a very small plant nest? A decorated termite mound? Gokudera moves closer, careful not to step on any more pieces. There's a little stone path, and the nest looks roomy and small. He starts to pick at little pieces of hay scattered over from the farmed areas and make little hay stacks, smiling peacefully to himself as he does. Hm... maybe he could make something else for them? It's fairies that live here? Or is it pixies?
no subject
When he spots Gokudera ahead he looks surprised and smiles with a friendly wave.]
Gokudera-san! Hello!
[It's been a little while since he's seen the other!]
Are you checking on the fairy nest too today?
no subject
H-Hey.
[He remembers this guy, but his name...
In his awkward state, he just nods dumbly, expression completely lost.]
Is that what it is...? [He looks down. Of course that's what it is. Gokudera says it like he's been gone for a long time, because he has.]
no subject
Sorry, did I startle you? I didn't think my stealth was that g-great...! Aha...
[He's just kidding! But it's a little confusing when Gokudera mentions the nest like it's a question?]
Yeah, the fairy nest. Sometimes I still think they picked a spot too close to the farm to be a good idea but...

[Sort of closed to Zuko]
Gokudera has no idea how he's supposed to help with a model ship. He's never maintained anything that small except bombs! And okay, that's a lot more pressure, but it's not like he has a very limited supply. It's not as personal to him as this ship probably is to Zuko! What if he fucks it up and breaks a piece while he's trying to help?! He probably will. Gokudera groans, worries his hands and approaches the room. He knocks at the door and waits, unable to shake the slight pout from his face.
Really, it's appreciated that Zuko reached out to him, but he's at a complete loss for what to do, how to act, and just... he's so incredibly grateful Azula isn't around. If she were, though, maybe the interaction would go smooth with Zuko around?
no subject
Zuko opens the door and offers a lopsided grin at the nervous Gokudera standing before him.
"Yo."
He inclines his head in a little nod of a greeting, then stoops down to scoop up his dragon in his arms before it can escape or jump on Gokudera or do anything else troublesome, as it's so wont to do. He's quick to shut the door behind his friend after he enters, and locks it just out of unnecessary paranoid habit.
"Welcome..."
He says with a slight sarcasm, as their space in the inn is really... not impressive. Still the default starter home. It's only recently occurred to Zuko they're maybe outstaying their welcome. But it is what it is. And what it is is humble. The only decoration is a vase of purple larkpsur flowers on a sunny windowsill, and the model warship in question sitting now on the small dining table instead of the dresser where it normally sits. Ready for action.
no subject
which obviously isn't true since he's basically a walking bomb, with little more than nerves.The dragon is a small surprise, and he gazes at it with boyish excitement before looking past Zuko at the model warship. Oh god, how is he going to avoid touching it? That familiar looks like a good distraction.
"Thank you." He steps in and takes off his shoes, then turns to face Zuko and the dragon he's holding.
"Who's this? I don't think we've been properly introduced." Looks oddly similar to the dragon he remembers protected him when he fought Zuko... just... miniature. Gokudera offers a hand, either for Zunyan to step into, bite, sniff, or set a foot in for a shake.

A.
But, having interest in seeing what was available in these places where he could still keep that coveted secret lead him to watching this poor sap get owned by his own attempt. Even without the dynamite or attempts at forming both magic and the choice weapon together, Shigaraki recognized just who it was.
"Because you're the wrong kind of angry." Simple and easy. Ask the most angry man in the entire world.
no subject
"What's the right kind of angry?" Gokudera grumbles, not recognizing who this person is. There is something vaguely familiar about him, but little more than remembering he's seen this person on the street one day, maybe.
Gokudera lifts up the bubble, and it's no larger than the palm of his hand, then he's waving it away, which creates a gentle breeze enough for it to drift until it comes near Shigaraki.
no subject
Wandering over, he stands close, but not too close. "The anger you have is frustration and it's useless."

B
Huh. That's new.
But Nobunaga seems kind of excited! "What else can you disconnect? Oh, wait! Is this because it can't handle the water? Is it really okay in the steam?"
And now he's standing there with a burning fuse smoke bomb. Gokudera, that's mean!
Re: B
Gokudera's impressing himself with his light magic. He already had a really good grasp on it, but it's another thing entirely to disguise his weapons as body parts while maintaining that his own arm is missing.
The bomb goes off, the arm vanishes, and Gokudera is laughing on the bank of the spring while his familiar slithers out of the water and leaves a pile of sparkling marbles behind Nobunaga to either step on, or to receive as a gift. The sea monster is strange, and as soon as it's out of the water, it camouflages. Gokudera isn't going anywhere, just delighted and surprised that his prank worked.
no subject
"Nice!" All the beams, as he returns the marbles. Listen, maybe they're expensive, and ninja need to hold onto their valuable supplies? "Light magic? I'm kind of jealous!"
Beware, because he just hops right in, across from Gokudera to soak. "All I've got is healing. Very boring. Seems like everyone fun has light magic."

B. The Red Spring
It matters not when she is busy studying the properties of water. Readying the day the full moon comes so she can properly measure the lake itself. She is surprised when he comes upon her and hands her - his arm. At first she believes it, and the face she makes is one of absolute horror - but as a fellow Light Magus she discerns the properties of magic.
Immediately her mood flips. ]
H-How did you do this?!?!
no subject
The look of horror changing to something else entirely has him smiling gently. This is helping to take his mind off his problems. Gokuders reaches up to his collar, and it legitimately blinks in response to the touch. He’s familiar with how it acts and what it responds to, so this is another illusion, though far more convincing.
His fingers slide along the choke chain and pull, and the whole collar lights up red. There is no smell to suggest it’s burning through his neck, like he’s making it appear to do. It looks... painful, but then his head is in his hands, and he holds it while speaking through it]
Practice.
[You’re talking to a two time light magic tournament champion. If he could make duplicates of himself to catch his attacks for him and honestly just have them be light shields that broadcasted, he can fake an arm coming off, or his head. It’s just another way of cloaking.
Gokudera for a moment, with his new illusion drops the act with his arm, and it is now very clearly a smoke bomb, disguised as a stick of dynamite.]
no subject
Oh.....
[ Mona is absolutely impressed, she has nothing but stars in her eyes when looking upon him. ]
I must insist that you take me under your wing and teach me then? I am just a fledgling when it comes to studying light magic - however. Of course. I am a prestige and amazing student, so you would be foolish to over look teaching me.
[ Mona flips her hair, the flavor of pride leaking from her. ]

"Maybe you're trying too hard? Could that be the reason why?" That would be something his senpai would say, it only seemed fair to give that suggestion to another.
no subject
"Maybe I just can't concentrate since I've got a lot of stress going on." He taps his temple and then kneels down, decides that looks awkward, and then just sits down. "I could try focusing on a different element..." And he gently falls back so now he's just lying in the dirt, closing his eyes, breathing deeply.
no subject
"That is, if you want to tell me." He said before giving a curious look. While he was wondering what he was going to say, he didn't want to feel as if he was forcing Gokudera to say it.

As she makes her way to the hot springs, also in a bathing suit to keep herself decent, considering it's a communal and apparently very open bath (mixing the genders and all), she's just about to lay down her towel in a spot on a lounge chair when someone approaches and. Just...
FUCKING...POPS OFF HIS OWN ARM AND HANDS IT TO HER??!! SIR??? J'EXCUSE????]
Eh? [Well, there fucking goes the color in her normally pink cheeks. And the rest of her face, too.] EHHH??
Re: B.
[And he goes right into the water, diving and dropping the illusion so immediately Ochako is holding a smoke bomb that looks like a stick of dynamite. The bomber is comfortable hiding under water so long as his breath holds. When it starts to ache, he'll come up, not wanting to miss her reaction or take that bomb to the head.]
no subject
and beyond. It's good to have that back in situations like this.And now that the other people at the Red Spring are safe, or so she assumed, Ochako is rounding on where she saw that guy last. She looks supremely pissed off - not a usual look for a cute, pink cheeked girl like herself, but MY DUDE MY GUY MY HOMESLICE BREADSLICE DOG...
Y'all fucked up.]
HEY!! Do you know how dangerous that was?! There are innocent people here! You could have really hurt someone if that detonated!! [There's only one person she trusts with explosives, and this guy sure as hell isn't him.]

[ He has no idea where this training is really going. Bubbles and dynamite? How is that supposed to actually do anything if the guy has no basic concept of the magic that he is currently trying to work with?
Makes no sense to Bakugou. ]

[Gokudera shouts in Bakugou’s direction. Then he turns and the wind moves with him, blasting at him without even moving the next bubble Larry blows at him. It pops against Gokudera and he rubs his head.]
