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!

[Well, worse than that. One little blow up isn't too bad for Katsuki.]

I think she will. she's not me, after all

[Acknowledgement that he's a dumbass? Yup. Checks out.]

or I could be being all mysterious and secretive~ that's godly, right?

[blastedass]

[He'll still try to kick her ass during training if they ever combat together.]

sounds like she's done this before to other people.

[Not the network thing, but bitched at them for their improper attitude and such.]

you act like an idiot when you try to be sneaky.

[intertwinedfates]

[At least that would be a fair fight; Eresh isn't helpless, after all.]

huh, really? then maybe she didn't get schooled properly that time if she thought doing it again was a good idea. hopefully she's learned from this, though

[Considering Yato's taking lessons from her he doesn't see her insistence on etiquette as such a bad thing...]

oh really? I'm that transparent, huh? ...guess that's something I need to work on

[blastedass]

[He expects that. Besides, he likes testing people's powers.]

she better. or she's gonna get wrecked again.

[Bakugo's never been fond of people trying to tell him what to do.]

what kind of stealth missions have you been on?

[intertwinedfates]

[Maybe that's how they need to bond: through fighting. I mean, it could work!]

I'm sure it'll sink in eventually...

[Gods can be slow learners sometimes, unfortunately.]

Hiyori and I helped out infiltrating some of the black market businesses a while back. ...or well, we tried to, but they kinda caught wind of us and attempted to kidnap her.

[They went from being the hunters to the hunted real quick, sadly.]

[blastedass]

[Look, he's already challenging her to a fight in the same breath as he's inviting her to dinner (the latter was Denji's wish) so that's gonna happen.]

Are all gods this fucking stubborn?

[Look who's talking, Mr Great Explosions Murder GOD Dynamight.]

HA! Bet one of you stepped in a bucket or some lame crap like that.

[Why's he not surprised?]

[intertwinedfates]

[He'll be rooting for your developing friendship with her, Katsuki...!]

pretty much. comes with the territory of being a deity on top of long-lived

[Isn't their mutual stubbornness one of the reasons they get along?]

tch! did not! we just got made, that's all...

[He would've preferred the bucket routine if it meant being the one being targeted instead of Hiyori, honestly.]

[blastedass]

[SHUT UP!! He's not making friends with anyone, dammit!]

stupid gods. they should put a damn time limit on you.

[Like hell is he admitting their mutual stubbornness being a comforting factor!]

got made?

[SUSPICIOUS OF BUCKET FAILURE!!]

[intertwinedfates]

[Become the best of bosom buddies!!]

heh, you'd think! I certainly wouldn't mind sharing some of my longevity with my mortal friends

[Boooo. Oh well.]

yeah. I don't think we were as smooth as we thought we were

[In other words, their acting sucked major ass...]

[blastedass]

[NO! Does Yato remember how long and how much it fucking took for him to even get Katsuki's first name?!]

the curse of being immortal.

[Making friends and having relations with mortals, those who vanish so fast compared to long-lived gods. How many times can a god have his or her heart ripped open before the start to think it better not to put more hooks inside?]

what'd you do? disguise yourselves or go through the air duct?

[Give him the deets, dammit!]
