[ Opting for the text function is definitely a less daunting prospect compared to airing a live video for strangers to see, but to Haru, first impressions are important. She can feel her hands and chest warming up, though a part of that could be attributed to the fact she's wearing that thick pink sweater. Still... she's not unused to addressing a large audience, it's just finding yourself in a world that isn't the cognitive one even with your friends here is somewhat unnerving.

But that's why video it has to be. She needs to convey a friendly approach and demeanor, otherwise it will be much harder to ask anyone for help should she ever need it.

There's no fumbling of the communicator once the feed starts up. Haru is seated close to the table it's propped up on, her hands laid neatly in her lap. She smiles at her unknown audience, a touch shy, but it's warm and friendly. ]


Good afternoon, everyone. My name is Haru Okumura. [ A beat. Does she mention her family? No. ] It is very nice to meet you all. I've heard there are many of us who have been brought to this world. Um, I suppose some of you have been here long enough to hear the same questions over and over, but if you would indulge me I would very much appreciate it.

[ She shifts closer, speaking a bit more clearly. ]

I have heard that superheroes are real in this world ― something that government actively encourages. [ It's difficult to mask the intrigue. Her eyes seem to light up. ] There must be superheroines, yes? I can hardly believe it myself... but that sounds amazing! I wonder if they are anything like the ones I admired on TV as a child.

[ An abrupt pause, followed by Haru's shoulders rolling back and a whimsical smile settling onto her face. ]

Ah, my apologies. I seem to have gotten a bit distracted for a moment.

Thank you!

Personally, I'm hoping that villains won't always underestimate me, because I'd like to help people in general feel safe, you know? Like All Might always did. But even if that doesn't happen....at least I might be able to inspire others to do their best too, even if they feel more like they're useless.

[Look at this bab giving this ridiculously earnest speech, what a nerd. a cute nerd.]

That's definitely the ideal. And I'm going to do my best to live up to it.

[He has some very, very large shoes to try to fill, after all. Especially in the man's absence.]

Either is okay, really.

[It's a little more informal than he's used to, considering all his classmates call him Midoriya except Uraraka and Bakugo, who use the two different meanings...of Deku....but he doesn't mind, he thinks.]

Oh, well, I...always wanted to, really.

[He rubs at his neck, a little.]

That might not be a very good answer, but I would watch All Might on TV and I wanted to save people with a fearless smile, just like him.

He is! He's known as the Symbol of Peace, because of how much crime rates dropped after he appeared. He once saved a thousand people by himself in a single disaster! Really, he changed the whole atmosphere of the country from one of persistent fear and anxiety to what it is today.

[oh haru don't let izuku go off on a babble about all might he will literally never stop talking]
