[ 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.

Women have just as many incredible powers. I don't see why not. A superheroine taught me to fly, once.

Hello, Okumura-san! I'm sure there are plenty of superheroines...

[Really, why wouldn't there be? It's an odd thought to Izuku, though no more odd than the idea of a world where Quirks and Heroes aren't as pervasive as they are in his own world.]

I only just got here myself so I haven't gotten much of a chance to research the pros here, but I could help you look into it, if you like...!

[ Of course it would only be a matter of time before she arrived. Perhaps Lachesis was mocking him in this way, dragging her through the porter and allowing him to face his sins head on.

It was easier when it wasn't so blatant. It takes him a moment to gather the courage to respond, video on. He looks... tired, more worried then he's trying to let on with a small, light smile. He had thought, briefly, he could get away with saying he's from a different time but -- his ruse would be seen through rather quickly. ]


Miss Okumura... I hope you've been well.

[ Despite his efforts he's still at a loss for words so he just sends her Kaneki's FAQ and hopes that will help her. ]

Hello, Haru.
I'm Otabek Altin.

There are superheroes and superheroines here.
You can be one, too.

Anyone can be a superhero.

[It's one of the best parts of the whole deal, right? Beth gives Haru a smile in answer, her scarred face bright. She's dressed for spring already--tank top, floral headband--but there's a scarf bunched up around her neck.]

If you want to be. Did you get some good powers?

There's superheroines, gods and goddesses... There's a lot of interesting shit around here, if you're looking for it.

[ ...oh no, she's cute; Adachi is instantly charmed. ]

Of course there can be super heroines as well, Okamura-san. There's just one very important rule when it comes to being one, though.

[ He flashed a wink at her. ]

The cuter you are, the more heroic you are. Pretty simple rule, right?

I imagine there's a few like the ones on TV.

[ Tatsuya can verify there's one's like what he saw on TV— one of his new powers in this world is to turn into a Phoenix Ranger Featherman. Not that he's spreading that one around. Secret identities, you know! ]

It's nice to meet you, Okumura-san. I'm Tatsuya Suou.

[Morgana is waving at the screen. He's positively beaming with delight that the group are coming back together, especially when he thought he was never going to see them again!]

Haru! You're here! It's so good to see you!

I don't see why not, Haru-san. You could be a superheroine yourself! That's why we got powers for, right?

Haru!

[Oh thank God. This was starting to turn into a real boy's club. And their boys can be dumb. So dumb.]

Superheroes are kind of our thing anyway right? We can totally do some good here.

Who did you like on TV? Parallels are about as likely as not.

I mean, don't quote me on that. I don't have the stats to back it up, but... Superheroes and heroines are just a thing where I'm from, and there are a lot of them there and here, so I'm sure finding a match is possible.

As long you are registered, yes, they want us to be heroes.

I suppose there are super-heroines, certainly.

[ H -- Hey Haru. Here, have a creepy reflective helmet. ]

Even though the genre is rather lacking in gender equality, there are plenty of superheroines, although if you want true equality, I think only using one title is a nice blanket to catch anyone who might not fall under either name. I dislike the use of gendered etymology.

I like using hero in an equal-opportunity sense.

[ Jesus. Are you sick of hearing that djgitized lilt, yet? He laughs, instead. It sounds like Wario. ]

Sorry, I get like this sometimes. You're not the only one who gets distracted.

Oh, Haru-chan, is it? I'm Blue! Blue Oak. Akira and Yusuke sure have some cute friends...!

[Cocky grin- the young man tilts the sunglasses off his eyes and up into his spiky hair (no, he definitely didn't put them on just to do this before turning the video feed on, what are you talking about)]

Superheroes, um, I guess if that's what you wanna call it... Mostly it's a mess.

[ Baal is similarly New In Town-- not so much lost as he is more jarred and trying to find his bearings here, get used to a world and situation that's both similar and entirely different to what he's left behind back home. He'd even had the same diplomatic impulse to address the network with an introduction, but he's not yet comfortable doing so until he knows more about what's going on.

But he can admire her enthusiasm, at least. Most of his fellow gods had reacted very similarly when they'd been found (or chosen) for Ascension.
]

It takes all types. Male, female, young, old... I would at least assume that's the case even here. [ He has a London accent and deep indigo suit on. ] Since the heroism's what we're all here for, innit?

Where I'm from, there's a whole team of superheroines. If you're looking to meet some yourself, you could do a lot worse than winding up here.

[ Okay, so this place has its drawbacks, but at least they've got women who can kick your ass in spades. ]
