heyoooo

Honestly the first 2-3 days post usj probably were spent in the hospital, not because of any serious injuries, but because the doctors needed that much time to run a shit load of tests to figure out what was actually happening, much to the class' annoyance (they get they need to be in a hospital but no-one likes being in the hospital)

Hive mind x eraser singularity:

The staff obviously gave the group some down time to actually eat food, and consistently, the entire group would pick orange juice as a drink. Which only became a problem because Eraserhead has an anaphylactic-shock-inducing citrus allergy which he himself forgot about because of all the Mental Noise he was being subjected to. He only registered that Spicy Orange Juice doesn't actually taste that bad, and only realised something was wrong when he was having difficulty breathing.

Then when Tokoyami started itching shortly after the whole hive mind was subjected to allergy tests to make sure the citrus allergy didn't somehow transfer- oh false alarm Tokoyami is just growing a bunch of new feathers.

Anyway the first thing aizawa does with body modding is getting rid of his citrus allergy. He still keeps adding capsaicin extract to anything orange he consumes though.

Hive Mind: Not to mention the sensory overload as they adjust

"God damn it." He changed the channel, scratching at his neck. "How fucking hard is it to catch one low-level Hero?! Sensei sent all those goons, and not ONE could pull this shit off!"

"Now now, Tomura." He stilled, as the man he had just mentioned spoke to him through the TV. "Those were all very fine Villains you are dismissing. There's no shame in finding your match..."

That was the OTHER thing that pissed him off. "Why do you sound so HAPPY about it, Sensei?!" Because he's been getting downright GIDDY the longer this stupid race level went on! "That brat is juking us across the whole fucking country!"

"Why wouldn't I be happy, Tomura? All those years, I have completely given up on finding a worthy opponent. One for All has such a frustrating quality of ending up in the hands of Toshinori's kind. The brainless brutes believing in nothing but force. But this?" Sensei actually LAUGHED. "Just look at it, Tomura. Such perfectly chaotic routes, the followers he 'just so happened' to run by, the way he 'coincidentally' directed the chase towards hidden Villain groups... do you see what we are dealing with?"

"One REALLY fucking annoying Hero."

"That too! But, more importantly..." Sensei's voice turned... hungry. "A true match to my intellect. At last, Moriarty has found his Holmes." He laughed again, though, thankfully, this time it was much closer to the laugh Tomura had expected from him. "Yes, I believe this shall be the game Japan will not forget. Come then, Midoriya Izuku. Make your move, and allow me to show you who's the greater chessmaster!"

*****

"So, like..." Himiko asked over from where they all tried to figure out how you're supposed to prepare a freshly caught rabbit. "Do we have any kind of plan already?" Izuku-kun just gave her a manic look, his eyes and lips and... everything else just kind of twitching without saying a word. "Just figured I'd check, is all!"

Wash had a friend named Cybertron. I haven't decided any details regarding what drove them apart beyond “Will-O-Wisp missed”, but they haven't been seen together in public in a long time.

Endeavor's internship offer is especially prestigious in this AU. Between his starter Ninetales who trained all of the Pokemon the agency uses, long history of successful Pokémon to come out of the gym, to the mere possibility of facing Endeavor's Heatran — Anyone who wants to get or improve their Fire type Pokémon wants to get in, and anyone who wants to practice dealing with Fire type Pokémon wants wants to get in too

Todoroki Enji and Himura Rei both had Vulpix starters.

A big factor of which internship to choose is Pokémon availability. If, say, Asui wants a Floatzel for ocean rescue, she needs to pick a hero that operates on the coast or at sea.

Togeike Chikuchi's two Pokémon are the Dolliv her parents gave her as a starter, and a Skwovet that stuck around to eat her berries. (The doylist reasoning is that (re?)inventing berries means proving berry-centric abilities like Cheek Pouch and Harvest work like the recovered old records say they do, or discovering they exist. I'm not clear on how complete the knowledge regarding Pokémon is in this AU)

This next writeup is a bit longer, since I have a reason to talk about the short timeskip between the USJ and the Sportsfest. My rule for this is exactly One new Move or Technique, I want the improvement from internships to be obvious.

On Ashido's Pokémon:

Ashido’s Nidoran struggles this early; with how young and untrained she is it’s hard to see the Nidoqueen she will grow into. She struggles against two of her Abilities, as Rivalry introduces a new level of inconsistency to attack power while Hustle makes moves miss. Poison Point makes approaching her dangerous at least. Move selection is also poor, as her strongest moves are Fury Swipes and Double Kick.

The fights in the First Lesson Exercise and at the USJ will highlight the need for Hone Claws, which she practices in preparation for the Sportsfest.

A/N: among my assumptions is the Life Orb Sheer Force synergy since the glitch is intentionally left in so that's something for this team to look forward to

The question was what. In the end, I decided that, since it was a common Pokemon that's fairly cute, Nidoran would serve well. Not to mention that the prospective Alien Queen deserves to have a Nidoqueen.

I gotta put you guys onto this, so basically when I was a lil kid, my uncle gave me this shitty PC with a bunch of MS DOS games on floppy disks, some of which were available later on PS1. Some of the ones I remember are MDK, Tomb Raider trilogy, Prince of Persia, Rollercoaster Tycoon, Magic Carpet and this absolute fucking gem of an adventure game called Goblins Quest 3.

It was a point and click puzzle game with wacky humour. I remember my first PC never had a sound card lmao so I used to play games with no audio but some of them would utilize the lil internal speaker on the motherboard that would beep on errors and so Goblins 3 Quest used that for footstep sound effects when you clicked around to move the character lol.

Since then I revisited this game many times, finding it on abandonware sites, and using emulators like DOSBOX and ScummVM to play on my linux and android handhelds, with sound lol, anyway holy shit I cannot believe it but I used to only know this as a trilogy but there is 6 games in total (6th one came out recently), and 5 of them were released in a collection for consoles with much needed refinements.

I never thought I'd see this game be released in the modern day and I am so excited to play all 5 games in the collection. The annoying thing is that there is a physical collectors edition I would have loved to buy but its only coming to PS5 which I don't have. It's also not on Steam, at least not yet... ? So I got it for my Switch.

sometimes i just end up remaking the post, posting it, and then the queued one gets posted right after lol super annoying.

Alfred: you need therapy

Bruce: *holding baby danny* I need baby?

Alfred: no, therapy

Bruce: *putting on his “best bat-dad” hat* yes I agree I need baby

Alfred: no, no. Therapy. Say it with me, Therapy!

Bruce: *playing with a giggling Danny* baby!

Alfred: *sighs* oh well, a new grandchild couldn’t hurt

Midoriya's time limit has been a developed but unused consideration for too long in this AU. How's about we make it mean something?

You're correct, Midoriya would need more time to practice keeping in his human form throughout a whole school day following the camp attack, even accounting for the short break before class starts again. He does however have experience with knowing his own limits and knowing when he's losing his proverbial grip, so I think it would be more like him desperately excusing himself and not showing up again for a while.

Steady anchor :)
