Hello. I've been told of the dangers of giving my name and picture to a wide network before, please accept my username for now.

There has been a lot happen here, but one thing sticks in my mind in the quieter hours that I would rather it not. I'd like to hear about the experiences people have with leaving others behind. Good or bad. Here, home, or another world. I've tried writing letters. A new notebook since my old one is lost to me. The new one doesn't seem to feel the same way. I've tried late night work outs, jogs, odd jobs in the evening, wandering and what one gentleman called the "night life" which I still don't completely understand. I could go to the same places in the day. All in all, I'm out of ideas.

Hearing any way that you deal with those thoughts constructively is something I'd be thankful for.

Thank you for your time and help in advance.

happy to help! just keep making sure to see them and share them with the rest of us. sounds fair to me!

[heir_conditioned]

More than help. I had someone in my life who smiled and it felt like I could take on the world. I don't smile very often, but if there are people I could prop up like that, I'd count myself lucky.

To that point is there anything I can do to help you in return?

[everblooms]

sharing that is the most important thing you can do. you're very lucky to have met them at all. don't give up on sharing your life with them!

haha
i don't need much or anything! really. how about you tell me your favorite flower and we call it even?

[heir_conditioned]

I am lucky. Maybe they'll be here one day, too. I hope they manage to get home, or here one day.

My favourite flower? I don't have one, but my mother's favourite is the Rindou flower. I suppose that makes it my favourite. You an enthusiast, judging by your user name?

[everblooms]

you'll see them again some day. no worries.

i am! most gardens here are private, but i really want to make this whole place go up with them some day. i think it'd be nice, and we kind of need it now... i think. the rindou flower is a really interesting answer, i don't think anyone's said that one to me before. apparently they're associated with overcoming diseases because they only grow when the sun is shining, and the root's useful in medicine. i hear it tastes bitter.

[heir_conditioned]

I feel like you're right.

Flowers on every corner would be a lot prettier than what's on every corner. I wonder if there's a place in your clan you could go. Which clan are you part of?

Are they? My mother wasn't well for a while. She's getting better. It could've been the flowers.

[everblooms]

tamamo! tenkohime has private gardens, but sine they're private, i don't really visit. maybe some day i'll have my own again.

really?? thats great. they must have made her want to get better. i'm sure you're like her little flower, too.

[heir_conditioned]

That's where I am, too. If you'd like, I can look out for a possible spot on my patrols. It's the least I can do.

[Her help actually meant a ton to him, not that everyone else helping isn't appreciated, but hearing that is exactly what he needed to hear. Unless she tells him he's gotta go, she's just earned herself a willing helper.]

Maybe. I visited her in the hospital a lot after school and saw them there every time. I'm not certain of the rest. We're able to talk and see each other now, at least.

[everblooms]

let me guess. you patrol because you have hero credentials, right? but, sure. let me know what you find. two pairs of eyes are better than one!

maybe it was you, more than the flowers... sometimes, all you need is to want something a little bit more to hang on a little longer.

[heir_conditioned]

I patrol because I want people to be safe and to feel safe, but I do have a license that isn't useful here. How did you know?

I couldn't answer that. I know she's happy to see me lately, so maybe.

[everblooms]

hmmm... lucky guess!

[ Honestly? She met Fumikage. No one else has been as gungho about sticking their neck out around here. ]

yeah, you can't. you're not supposed to. but that's how you know she loves you.

[heir_conditioned]

[Conversation about mom aside, for just a moment. Excuse him, the cogs have to move at the same speeds, but they're not all oiled.]

You knew exactly what I needed to hear and you knew about my hero license based on a guess? Are you a psychic? You'd already know I was going to ask that.

[everblooms]

[ If she remembered how to send kaomojis... she would right now. ]

not at all! its it that unbelievable?

[heir_conditioned]

[Those are something he understands, at least.]

Yes. But then I think of how we're in some sort of creation mapped around "Hell". It's the only thing I can think of. Oh. Wait, I see. One moment, my apologies.

[heir_conditioned]

Alright. You can speak freely now. Have you considered using this ability of yours to improve security?

[everblooms]

[ This is so charming, she's half-tempted to not correct him at this point. ]

how would you use it to improve security?

[heir_conditioned]

[Valid.]

If someone were casing a business then we would know. Preventative countermeasures are important and any sort of information would be helpful. Not only but it would stop some people who could just be in need of a hand instead of turning to a life of crime. There are a multitude of ways you could help. Even discerning innocence from someone who might be framed otherwise.

[everblooms]

i'll have to keep those in mind if i ever wake up and find out i'm psychic!

[heir_conditioned]

[Well she never did say she was and it takes Shoto a few to figure out what that statement actually comes out to be.]

Ah. I was wrong, then. Your guess was very good, to the point that I outed myself I suppose. What I said stands, I patrol to make people safe. If you do wake up psychic, let me know, please.

[everblooms]

[ HE'S SO STUPID. Adorable. ]

haha well who do i tell about my new psychic powers? i'm aerith gainsborough.

i just remembered a kid who looks like a crow talking about being a hero, it reminded me of him! you guys should be friends. thank me later!

[heir_conditioned]

[He is extremely stupid, but honest if nothing else. She's, in his mind, asking him two different things and he treats them that way.]

You can tell me if you want, or anyone you trust. Psychic ability sounds like something that may be misused by the wrong people. My name is Shoto.

You met Tokoyami. He was a classmate of mine when I was in UA Highschool. A very impressive hero and an impressive person. One of the people I thought I'd never see from home, which is why I think you might be right. Have you met my other classmates? Midoriya and Bakugo?

[everblooms]

it's nice to meet you, shoto! i'll keep you in mind if i do wake up with psychic powers.

yep, UA sounds familiar. he was a help during the storm. so was izuku. izuku helped us spread some incense around, and tokoyami helped me find someone who went missing. you guys aren't kidding about that hero thing.

[heir_conditioned]

You, too. Please keep me in mind if you need help of any kind, big or small. Not just for your help, but it's what I like to do.

[Uh oh. She said the magic words. Or rather magic name.]

Midoriya. That sounds like him, like them. He's an inspirational person and someone who set me on the right path to be able to understand myself and reminded me who I wanted to be. Without him, I might be a very different person. All of us would answer the call to help, but Midoriya has a way of making the situation on a whole feel like everything will be alright. While we're all essentially rivals, I feel that Midoriya is among my greatest friends and most trusted an ally. I'm sure Tokoyami would echo my sentiment while Midoriya would insist we were overstating it. He's very modest.
