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!

[ She says he isn't doing everything to save his child. She says it like he hasn't done everything for her. She says that like he hadn't held her in his arms while she was dying, and he'd never been able to stop her. He hadn't found her, he had been trying to stop them from finding her, to keep her safe, to make sure she didn't —

— leave.

She has no idea.

She can't, because Silco clutches too tight, like trying to grip sand, and she says he doesn't care, that he doesn't want to protect her, fight for her — he does. How could he not?

But he always seems to find a reason to slip around what's best, they are in alignment, aren't they? He thinks they are — he believes it — and though he won't admit it, he often doesn't do it right. He can't, he's too lost in his pursuit of power, because it's the only way he knows.

She doesn't understand, and he doesn't want to teach her. This is too public, it is too available.

So instead of responding, he only closes it, and refuses to persist.

Congratulations Ereshkigal! You got the certified yapper to shut up. (With bonus angry little tantrum!)
