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!

[ Tempting as it is to argue over that first part, he lets it go, if only because the larger conversation is in the second. But, still, there's definitely a heavy sigh at that "don't worry, I died." Not what he'd take out of it, but sure. ]

won't disagree that I'm negative. hell that's a trait of any god associated with death I figure

but the bond we have with humanity is different yeah. wouldn't go so far as to say I don't have faith in them but their hardships are their trials. even beyond the whole getting in trouble bit doesn't feel right for me to put a thumb on the scale. takes away the value of what comes from those trials

I give my advice and criticisms. but it's up to them to interpret it and decide whether to follow it. it's that kind of deal

or to put it another way you've got a parental kind of view and mine is more an asshole older brother

[ A parental kind of view... An "asshole" older brother?

... ... ... ... ... ]

i
i suppose i cannot argue with those
colorful metaphors

[ Between that and the whole Bakugou situation, she needs a lot of sleep right now. ]

[fursuit]

hey they're the metaphors that people tend to understand. you want colorful then I'll get into my epithets

[ he's joking, mostly. he's not actually intending to get into them, at least. ]

all that said though. my point is to not take it personally if the kid doesn't want your help. some people are just like that. plenty of them actually since silco's my personal favorite version of it.

course if you're worried about him stumbling doesn't mean you can't be in his corner. he might even appreciate it one day. maybe.

[queenofkur]

please don't

[ She's had enough colorful for a decade, she thinks. ]

right
thank you

we often have disagreements,
but your advice is rarely wrong

[ Much as she hates to admit it. How unfortunate she's mentally exhausted right now, she's going to regret having said that later. ]

[ tempting as it is to say "I know" or "wow you're actually agreeing with me", he restrains himself ]

and I mean it when I give it

but I'll leave you to it

going to go out on a limb here and guess you need the rest
