While that certainly did make a LOT of sense, it also raised quite a few questions. Since no random passerby was allowed on campus, where exactly WERE Iida and Kaminari for someone to have purposed such a question? And did Iida also take the time to correct them about an issue with semantics? All in all the situation sounded troubling and incredibly hilarious.

“Oh… Well, I’m glad everything turned out, and nobody got hurt!” Izuku nodded, hands gripping the straps of his backpack, “OH, right, Kaminari-kun also said something about DINGUS?” But he didn’t remember exactly what the other said unfortunately.

    “. . .  it seems that Kaminari and I must have a discussion about what it means when someone says to keep a matter private.” After all, Tenya’s reputation was on the line! From how Kaminari had reacted, he had ascertained that one could not authentically call someone a ‘dingus’ without seeming, as they would say, a dingus themselves. He’d never been cool, but he was class president! He had to at least uphold some dignity!

    “Pardon me, Midoriya. I have very important business to discuss no where near Kaminari Denki right at this moment.”

“Hey! Iida-kun!” Izuku called making his way over, he wasn’t ENTIRELY SURE why Kaminari wanted him to ask Iida this particular question, but he supposed there was a GOOD REASON!

“Do you want some BLADES?”

    Oh, Midoriya-kun! Tenya paused in his morning stretches as his friend approached and posed a question. And. . . 

    “Ah. Yes. That is a commentary on an encounter he and I had previously in the week. On our way to school, a man offered to sell us pocket knives. I politely informed him that they were, in fact, pocket knives, and that blades were meant for skating.” He adjusted his glasses with a small smile. “A simple mistake in semantics, but his meaning would have been misinterpreted potentially. . . .

              “I promptly then reported him to the authorities for offering minors knives.”                                       Of course.

A quick summary of Hatsume and Iida’s fight.

[iidashing]

‘ if i keep my body moving and my mind occupied at all times, i will avoid falling into a bottomless pit of despair. ’

    Well that didn’t sound like a healthy mindset at all. Iida eyed Midoriya beside him on the couch. See... his friends had this habit of saying things with conviction, and then insisting that they didn’t actually mean them the way that they had articulated. Which made zero sense- how were they supposed to properly communicate and convey their sentiments if they continuously deflected with sardonics and deprecations? It was impractical and, frankly, troublesome.

    But despite the small smile on his face, Tenya couldn’t help the concern that settled in his stomach as he looked to his friend. “Or perhaps you could take a break...? You’ve been pushing yourself so hard lately, and it does worry me.” And everyone else, he was sure. But he was worried, and too honest to tip-toe around the fact. “If there’s anything I can do to help, you know that you should have no hesitation in asking.”

[ dischronological: Rose ] "Let me just say, from the bottom of my heart: my bad."

    Her... bad? Iida’s head turned slowly, appraising the girl with a pointed stare. ... upperclassman, clearly. So he needed to be mindful to pay his respects, since she was his elder and all. But at the same time...

    “You evacuated all of the dorms with that stunt, and all you have to say is my bad?”

Some muse questions! Feel free to reply or reblog or make a new post to this.

Are they a fall / winter or spring / summer kind of person? Do they fare well under extreme temperatures or do they suffer? Do they get sick easily when flu season comes around or are they the annoying kind of person who never seems to get sick? If / when they do get sick, can they take care of themselves, or are they helpless and rely on the help of others? Do they get easily angry in hot conditions / sleepy in cold conditions? Do they have any allergies? What’s their sneeze like? Do they try to cover up and hide their coughs and sneezes or are they open about it? Is it loud and violent or quiet and cute? Are they the blankets on or blankets off kind of person? Do they stay in an air conditioned during the summer instead of outside? Can they survive with one layer of clothes in the winter or do they need at least five?

[iidashing]

    Tenya enjoys summer and fall- good outdoorsy weather, and he doesn’t have to do any maintenance with his engines or anything, so that’s appealing. Hey, everybody hates inconvenience, regardless of how major or life-altering, and snow + engine = a pain in the butt. But he manages. If asked, he prefers fall just because it’s less sweltering and more comfortable...     He’s fine in extreme temperatures, actually. Though he would prefer it be too cold to too warm, just because he’s naturally his own personal space heater.     Given his everything, he’s very healthy and keeps good care of himself. He doesn’t tend to get sick all that often, but when he does, he can be... extra. Not that he needs attention or needs help, but he just.... he handles it himself, but not without a full mask and separation treatment. Hey, at least he’s sanitary and safe. But nah, he can generally handle it himself. And if he can’t? Then... well, he’ll find that out, because he’s never been that kind of sick before.     Tenya doesn’t get angry dependent on temperature? He’s one of those strange people who is cognizant of the fact that more aggressive tendencies come out when it’s warm so he takes steps to mitigate irritability... to odd ends. That being said, if it gets cold enough and you enshroud him in a blanket, he’ll likely nod off fairly quickly. That’s a dream.     He’s very lucky- he does not have all that many allergies. Dust obviously bothers him, and there are a few mild allergies that just affect most anyone, but to his knowledge he doesn’t have any overt allergies... he may have them, but he’s never had any experience with them.     He’s not a neandrethal he covers his sneezes and coughs like a decent person but they are definitely heard. He’s not terribly quiet with... most anything...     BLANKETS ON. While he only has the one on his bed, he actually does have a lot of blankets, and he prefers to be very warm when he sleeps, so give him all the blankets and he’s asleep immediately.      Tenya doesn’t mind either or, but at the end of the day, if he’s not got plans or explicit reason for being outside ( like running or other workout regiments ), he’s probably inside reading or the like. So... air-conditioned?     One layer. For sure. He likes cold to a certain degree, and he’ll have a coat and scarf, but he’s not decked in many layers.

"Iida, catch!" He throws himself at the other boy, an already apologetic look on his face, but it was too late now. He trusted Iida --- he believed the other boy would be a hero and catch him!

    Hero or otherwise, they needed to behave in a fashion that befit UA students! And lobbing oneself through the air with such little heads up-! It was inconceivable that someone like Midoriya would be the beneficiary of such tomfoolery!

    “W-wait, wait, I’m holding-!”

    Orange juice? Dropped. What a shameful waste! And yet, in Tenya’s arms now was cradled one exceptionally content and proud looking Midoriya Izuku. Tenya’s stern expression turned down to the princess-carried teen.

    “You need to warn someone when you’re going to launch yourself through the air at them. This is not an appropriate setting for horseplay, and you should know full well the injury that one could incur if this had gone poorly. What if I had missed? Or been holding a hot beverage? Or had caught you wrong? Any number of things could have gone wrong. You should be more careful- I feel as if that’s something we say to you a lot.” ..... he’d still catch him every time, to be fair...

4 & 10

what seemingly insignificant memories stuck with your character?what would your character make a scene in public about?

    While I could arguably say anything to do with Tensei, I’ll pinpoint an exact moment: If you admire me, Tenya, then I might just be an amazing hero after all! It’s that which has sort of helped shape Tenya a lot into who he is. His brother is working so hard to be the kind of person who is heroic in small ways, and yet he believes that to make the most profound impact. Listening to his brother just talk, just be the sort of person who can be heroic in a way that doesn’t have the flair or theatrics of a lot of modern heroes, has appealed to him. He’s not becoming a hero to make money, to get famous, to aspire to painfully lofty ideals: he just wants to make his brother and his family proud of him. The fact that his brother can be so proud and happy with his accomplishments and just.... screams that relationship is so important and so anything, no matter how small, to do with his brother, has formed him into just who he is.

    Is it inappropriate to say yes? Look, Iida does not mean to be quite as theatrical and over the top as he is- it’s just a natural part of his personality. He’s loud, verbose, and confident in a way that doesn’t mean he’s necessarily self-assured, but more than he’s just a very big personality. So... whether he means to or not... he can make a lot of things a public scene. But purposefully? Major danger or other outstanding situations, he would likely be very quick to get up and direct the situation and try to facilitate safe evacuation and help people as he can. So... usually good things. May also scream for his friend if they seem to be wandering off without a buddy.

⌘ ♤⌚

⌘ do they rather shower or take a bath?♤ does your muse have any scars? where? what do they look like? how did they get them?⌚ how long do they need to decide what to wear in the morning?

    Showers are far more efficient, so he prefers them, since he doesn’t understand how showering can be relaxing when it’s meant to be practical more than anything. Baths, besides, are kind of gross to him in concept, so... showers.

    His left hand, remaining unhealed from his injury with Stain, does have a noticeable scar ( hand crushed friends unite ). Other than that, it’s very small, and not noticeable from far away, but there’s a very small little ‘x’ shaped scar on his right cheekbone. When he was four, he lost a fight with a squirrel over some graham crackers. It’s a battle wound well won, and there is a small part of him that’s super irritated that he got scarred for life and still didn’t get his cracker back.

    Given that, on most days, he wears a uniform? Practically none at all. On days when he chooses his own outfits? Not much longer- maybe five or six minutes; he actually keeps his clothing organized by outfit and doesn’t tend to stray from pre-set forms, so it’s pretty quick to go this one and get ready. He always looks well put together, to his credit, but it doesn’t take terribly long at all.

12 & 14

what are your character’s major flaws?how does the image your character tries to project differ from the image they actually project?

    Ironically, it’s his passion. He’s very self-driven and ambitious, in his own right, but he tends to be surprisingly shortsighted due to it, and despite his incredible academic intellect. He feels so very strongly, and allows those feelings - well intended as they may be - to completely dominate a lot of what he does. While he offsets this by being very flexible in combat and ale to adapt on the fly, it does mean that he gets himself into situations that could likely have otherwise been avoided with more thought rather than going immediately with gut instinct and trusting on his response time. He puts a lot of stock into his speed, both intellectually and physically, but unless he has the time to generate and explicit plan, he’ll usually just kinda fly by with what he can make work.    To that point, I do want to mention that Iida is a good strategist! He can plan, and when he does, it’s typically a very good one! However, he knows very well that no plan survives enemy contact, and is as such able to adapt and be malleable to circumstance, and when planning time is not afforded him, he has enough knowledge and instinct to be able to compensate.     ( Take, for example, the Uraraka fight, where he had a meticulous and highly effective plan that he could adapt on the fly when ‘the enemy’ put a wrench in it versus the fight with Stain where he had z e r o honest plan, flew by on gut instinct, and was driven to incredible extremes because of raw, undeniable emotion. Sure, that still didn’t end well without intervention, but all things considered he faired as well as one would expect a teenager flying by the seat of his pants to do ).

        Iida doesn’t really project an image is the issue I’m having with this question? He’s sincere and genuine to a fault at some points. The flaw is that I feel like he projects something accidentally? Obviously, just due to his maturity, he seems much more experienced and professional than he really is, which is hardly a problem! The bigger thing that I think kind of offsets him from his peers is that he seems very stern, controlling, and frankly neurotic ( okay he’s fairly neurotic ), when in actuality he’s very well intended and kind, though firm with his beliefs and intentions. I think it’s more that he accidentally projects images that either make him seem more than he is? How do I phrase it... he seems almost as if he has more experience and control over things than he is, and I can see others putting a lot of responsibility on him, and him accepting that, because of how earnest, mature, and firm he is.
