Greetings everyone (edit: except Silco).

I come to ask for your shared wisdom following a disagreement I have had with one of our peers, Bakugō Katsuki. I am of the opinion that his unusual vocabulary, his aggressive predisposition and his unstable temper are a detriment to his social life. I have personally experienced difficulties communicating properly with him, seeing how all conversations quickly devolve into a purposeless rain of insulting words before any progress can be made.

When I said as much, he suggested the problem comes from myself. He accuses me of taking his words too literally and of behaving in too much of a maternal manner towards him. I admit it is a possibility we simply don't see eye to eye - however, I doubt his temper, poor choice of words and aggressiveness are limited to our interactions.

This is why I am asking for your wisdom and opinion, especially those familiar with Bakugo to - hopefully - help him see reason.

Thank you kindly!

That doesn't mean I'm not gonna slaughter you for it!
I'm not wasting time on your shitty PR issues! I can do my job here as well as anyone else!

[ This reply comes as she's in the middle of her character development(tm) ]

T
This is only to try and help you.
I used to have terrible social skills and manners as well.
Your life will be much easier if you listen to what and everyone else say and work on your behavior.

WHAT?! I never asked you to in the first damn place!!
If other people have a problem with me, they can say it to my face!
Do you bitch about everyone who doesn't act like YOU?

[ This reply comes after she got her full character development(tm) ]

very well
i'm sorry i was only trying to help
i tried deleting this post but its not letting me
ill post a message to tell everyone to stop replying

[he's had some time as well, apparently...]

got your ass handed to you, huh.

are all the gods in your world boring and mellow 100% of the time?

i am not boring and mellow!
i may be at my lowest right now
but i will not tolerate for you to call me mellow

b
boring maybe, i suppose...

regardless
you have my apologies

do you go on tirades at the gods who aren't?

[boring and mellow and quiet... and polite.]

i don't see the other gods
they only come to my realm when they die
and i can't understand what the souls of the dead say

no wonder you're so adverse to noise.

of course
the underworld is the quietest and calmed place in all of existence

regardless
i'm sorry
please feel free to pretend i do not exist

you're not in the underworld anymore. welcome to surface life.

huh? fuck that.
you're coming over for dinner.

denji already invited you.

h
huh?
what?

but he said you said no?
that is so shocking!

assumed. he should've waited until we were done talking before giving you a damn answer.

dinner's at 6:30. i don't trust the "cafeteria" here, so i cook out in the courtyard.

b
but

i just hurt you!
i caused you to feel untold negative emotions
you shouldn't have to tolerate my presence for dinner!

don't tell me what i should or shouldn't do!

you fucked up and made a mistake. accept it, learn, and move forward.
if you let little shit like this drag you down, you'll be stuck where you are forever.

y
you are being kinder to me than i deserve

thank you

[She's not the first person to bitch at him about his atrocious attitude.]

want me to kick your ass until your penance meter maxes out?

[He's not a fan of people who beat themselves up either. ~~Even if he's a hypocrite by doing so.~~]

if you're allergic to tea, say so now.

no
i feel bad,
and i would understand if you wanted to do this,
but my pride as a goddess means i would have to stop you and retaliate

[ And she'd hurt him again, in a physical way this time! ]

i have no allergies
except to my sister
so long as she's not there its fine

hoh? so you can put up a fight?

[He knows she can; she's been fighting for LILITH all this time. But Bakugo's never one to back down from a strong opponent. And he's also eager to challenge them for the same reason.]

pick a time and place. i'll crush you.

[Now he's curious to see what she can do.]

just show up hungry, dammit!
