Hey, Round Face. The...place I was staying at got infested with a disgusting and aggressive type of green parasite so I can't stay there anymore. I can pay rent and whatever the fuck else.

[zerograv]

Oh, gross! Do you want help getting rid of it?

[there's a pause though.] But hey, you can stay here as long as you need to, okay? Don't worry about paying rent.

[but also maybe let her help you exterminate whatever green parasite has taken over your home???]

[hot_handed]

No, that's...! Don't be dumb. It's incredibly toxic and hard to get rid of.

Whatever, I'm still paying it.

[zerograv]

You sure? I bet between the two of us and the right equipment we could kick its butt! [how bad can parasites be?]

Anyway, just bring over anything you need. I've got a spare toothbrush and some blankets you can use.

Hi Ochaco,

Have you heard about the Christmas charity Usagi is organizing? There's going to be a group bringing presents to children in hospitals and orphanages. I built a metal sleigh for it!

You should come, too. Let me know if you're interested.

Lorna~! Hey! I got your message. I'd love to come! What kind of donations should I bring?

[shelterednomore]

Any sort of toy would be fine. I don't know what people have donated already. I've been focused on getting the sleigh ready.

delivery, backdated to xmas eve-ish.

[ Just a card addressed to her and two rather slim boxes wrapped in a dark blue and silver snowflake foil wrapping paper. The top, smaller box will have a homemade traditional Galette des Rois in it and the slightly larger one below it will have a very long, thick, and soft navy blue scarf in it; wrapped inside of it is a small, handsome folding knife in an unneeded soft suede sheath.

The card is simple. White and embossed with a snowflake, inside it says:

Hey, Ochaco.

I know it can be rough to be alone -- or at least away from home on the holidays, especially at your age. The scarf will hopefully be helpful with the cold and you're probably hesitant to use a knife, but keep it on you just in case. If not for a fight, then for whatever may come your way here. It's always good to have one just in case.

Take care, kiddo.

Though she normally will sign with "JV" she goes with a more casual Jill this time. ]

misfire;

[oathkeeper]

[Have a random misfired thought, stranger! Sorry...!]

I just made a hot pocket without burning down the house, I think I can do anything.

god bless you sora

[zerograv]

Oh wow, that's pretty impressive! I think? Those are the weird sandwiches that wind up being the temperature of lava AND mostly frozen at the same time right?

[Look, she's just going to go with it]

;D

[oathkeeper]

[Who is this?! ... Eh. He's totally just gonna go with it too.]

Yeah! If you warm them up too fast they also explode all over the place. Cleaning up exploded lava cheese...

[zerograv]

[she grimaces] Oh gross. I think I had to do that once with the microwave at home, it was a huge mess..!

[she pauses though.]

Um, but I guess now I should probably mention that I don't know who you are I guess, shared experiences with microwave food aside.

misfire dream sharing thing, woo

[sleepingbagsensei]

[It's later in the evening, stars twinkling the sky, open grass field with a white picket fence in the middle of nowhere. What's more strange is something is hopping over the fence slowly, in a line. As one looks closely, it's a line of.... tuxedo cats? There is a familiar yellow sleeping bag near the fence....? Whenever Ochaco arrives there, she will find a small black cat looking up to the sky. Counting.]

87. 88. 89.....

[And why does his tired voice sounds so familiar? Are those yellow goggles over his head and scarf?]

[zerograv]

[oh. Uh. The sleeping bag is pretty familiar, but the cat? At first she doesn't really think so but it's hard to mistake the subtle clues. She's never been terrible at figuring things out when given the time.]

...Mr. Aizawa?

fdsjfalf damn pic... well you saw it anyway

[sleepingbagsensei]

90... 91...

[Hearing his name, the cat looks up to Ochaco with lazy eyes, meaning off the jumping cats.]

Ah. [There is a still of silent, the tuxedo cats continues to jump over the fence in a single file line, non-stop.] Damn.

[More silent for just another moment.]

Happy now? I lost count of them.

[zerograv]

Hahaha, sorry Mr. Aizawa... Guess I was kind of startled to uh... run into you.

[she crouches down next to him, watching the cats for a minute before shifting to look at her teacher again.] But even if you lost count, now you have more cats to count. It's like a fresh start!

[this is so weird....]

Mixed Message - Feb 28 (Audio Telepathy)

[boundbynaught]

I wonder why Aiada has the smallest group here...

[zerograv]

[she's gotten at least one other of these so she's not even thrown off. She just responds cheerily:]

Jealousy and Appreciation is kind of a lot more nebulous than fear and bravery right? Maybe it's because it's a lot easier to be driven by something like that. She's cute tho! I don't mind being aligned to her.

[She wonders if that means she's an inherently jealous person. ... In some circumstances it's not an inaccurate evaluation.]

1/2

[boundbynaught]

Tch! I didn't mean to send that out to somebody else...

[ But he sighs. ]

Sorry, I-

2/2

[boundbynaught]

[ He pauses, realizing what she just said. ]

I... didn't know you were aligned to her too.

Sometime in April....

[sleepingbagsensei]

[This happens sometime after this A package is delivered: A box of condoms, instructions, and a small card. Card reads:

'Here. In case you get some stupid idea, protect yourself.

From your teachers.']

Mid April

[reigningchaos]

[ How he found out where she was living it's a mystery. Caius has his ways or something creepy of that nature. Either way, Whenever Ochaco leaves her place, she'll find a package sitting outside of her home. It's addressed To: Ochaco but it doesn't say at all who it was from.

That seems kind of odd and mysterious, but she doesn't have to actually open it if she fears it. Or she could just let Bakugo explode it if it worries her. But if she dares open the box she'll find an outfit in the box. A note with gentle handwriting "A festival of flowers is happening this month I heard. Perhaps it's not like any festival from home and perhaps it might be strange to dress accordingly. Still, this is yours to enjoy or ignore. " ]

text!!

[torsion]

Hey, do you like dogs?

Wait, do dogs even exist where you're from?

(This is Jill, by the way!)

[zerograv]

....huh?

[she pauses.]

yeah! they're pretty cute! I like the smaller ones best.
Why?

[torsion]

[ Jill sends a visual of a medium-ish Border Collie mix with a bandana on. ]

That's my dog. We're out and about and wanted to know if you might want to join us?

He's mostly good. Archie's Mightyena is sort of the pack leader so he's picked up some habits from him -- mostly face-licking. But he's pretty good at avoiding it most of the time.
