Good guys my ass.

[The face that comes into view glares into his screen, not bothering to hide his contempt. How it's possible to judge the network so early is a mystery, but somehow he's managed to.]

Good guys don't waste my time with shitty assignments and craptoos. What the fuck is an anger management facility?! It's better off bein' recycled into fireworks-

[His free hand, cupping his chin, twitches, tense and restless. Blowing up his newly assigned workplace would certainly help soothe his anger, but it's probably illegal. Shame. As disgruntled as the teen appears, Katsuki didn't come on the network to complain. He scoffs, takes a breath, and:]

OKAY, LISTEN UP!!!

I'm looking for anyone from UA- hell, anyone from our rival schools. People with quirks. Whatever. If you don't know what I mean, answer this:

How do I make some real money in this shithole? Enough money to start my own agency.

Don't waste my time telling me you don't got any answers, or I'll kill ya.

[He slams his hand down on the table. And if he accidentally singes the table, well. It was an ugly table to begin with.]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[ Really, Bakugo... She would have expected him to have better control over his quirk than that. Though, having little control over his temper is exactly what she expected. ]

Very well... [ She clears her throat. Speech incoming. ] The Porter which brings us here will often bring the same people back multiple times. What makes this complicated is that it is uncertain whether you will have remembered your previous stay, once you return.

[ All of which is exposition, leading her to: ] Myself, Midoriya-san, All Might, and you have all been here before, over a year ago. I am the only one who remembers that time.

What?

[Katsuki's voice goes hoarse. It's a lot to take in, knowing that he's been here before and doesn't remember a damn thing. Not only him, but other people from his world. The helplessness is stifling, so much he doesn't know what to do with it.]

So you're the only one who gets to remember everything?! And no one's bothered trying to fix the shitty Porter?! I'll show you, I'll remember ten times as much as you this time!

I didn't choose to be the only one who remembers, it's just happenstance! Do you know how much easier it would be for me if any of you recalled a single moment of your time here?

[ With Bakugo's emotions flying, it's easy for her to lose her cool. Give her a moment to gather herself and gain control over her feelings once more. ]

The government won't let anyone get near the Porter to examine it. And from what I hear, that's a good thing. The last time people tried to investigate the Porter directly, the fallout was disastrous.

Quit your whining! You think it's all sunshine and roses for me to have a chunk of memory missin', ponytail?!

[He can guess that it sucks for her. She's basically been alone in this. But it's still disconcerting, and he doesn't like feeling helpless to...happenstance and some random object.]

Oh yeah? Were you there?

No, my apologies. I imagine this must be difficult for you, too.

[ Even with Bakugou being, well... Bakugou. Momo should still try to be sensitive to his needs. ]

And no, I wasn't. I read about the encounter after the fact. But the effects of the encounter happened to all imPorts, not just those who were present with the Porter.

[He's stunned and for once he's quiet, before he snaps at the perceived sympathy.] It ain't difficult, it's just a headache!

[Literally. But he's fine. They're fine.]

What happened?

[ She purses her lips. If this is how he must behave, then so be it. ]

The Porter shut down, and with it everyone's nanites shut down as well. This doesn't sound like much of an issue, but considering that all of our quirks are made possible by the nanites, and the fact that they heal our bodies as well... Many people ended up in the hospital, with old injuries opening up again. Many others became very sick.

What?

[What kind of bullshit is this? If nanites can mend injuries, why can't they permanently heal them? But if the Porter shut down, All Might...]

Then we don't destroy it. We just leave.

[ She shouldn't be surprised by Bakugou's brash confidence. And yet, here we are. ]

Ah-- You can't just leave whenever you want. There's no way back to our world except through the Porter.

I know that. Could barely see in the base too, does everyone here naturally have a night vision quirk?

N-no. I think they just keep it dark to keep an air of mystery.

[ There's really no other reason for it, that Momo can tell. ]

WHAT THE FUCK?!

THAT'S SO FUCKING STUPID!!! WHAT IF SOME IDIOT TRIPS?!

Well, it's America. I imagine they just sue them.

[ They are very litigious over here. ]

What a fucking waste-

Forget it. We're still getting out, no one will get hurt. It'll be flawless.

Bakugou-san... [ PLEASE don't get arrested. Momo isn't as rich here as she is at home. She can't immediately bail you out. ]

Please try to think with a level head about this. ImPorts have been coming to this Earth for years... If it was that easy to get the Porter to send us home when we want it to, don't you think someone would have done it already?

What? You wanna stay here? What about being a hero?

I ain't giving up just because some failures failed or didn't bother trying in the first place.

We can be heroes here. There are no schools like U.A., but I have been interning with a group of heroes calling themselves The Justice League since the last time I was here. As long as you are registered with the government, you are allowed to act as a hero should you wish.

Yeah yeah, I know that. Why do you think I'm trying to start my own agency? So I can buy out that shitty Cape Carnival place and their Porter. It's capitalism.

But that's going to take too long.

That's... [ completely unreasonable, Bakugou what are you thinking? ] ...a lofty goal. You really want to start your own hero agency?

Why the hell not? You just said you were a part of one. And they love imPorts, which is fucking creepy.

Do you know anything about running a business entity?

I know plenty! You need a license and to create your brand.

You will also need an office location, and employees to run the business aspect of the agency. Unless you plan on managing all the bookkeeping yourself?

Fuck that! I'm gonna be on the field! ...Shit, but it's gotta be someone competent and someone I trust not to be a bastard.

Mmhmm.

[ She should just wish him luck and let that be that. She has a good thing going with the Justice League.

But what kind of classmate would she be if she didn't at least offer to help? ]

I can help you take a look at some of the legal processes involved in getting a business license, if you like. I also interned at a law firm the last time I was here.
