I'm so tired of this society's hypocrisy.
Some of you might remember me as Lady Nagant, the pro hero.
Well, hate to tell ya but I've quit the system.
What that means?
Now, I'm just an assistant to a super fastidious boss.
What that means? Some days I help him investigate a murder, some days I dust off people's homes (yeah no kidding), and some days I keep him from making terrible decisions.
// ⚖️ OOC
Excuse me Ms. Tsutsumi.
Something occurred that I thought it may be pertinent to run by you. I've been feeling unwell for the past week-ish in the guest house, and the feeling only seemed to go away when I went out for lunch with you and when I visited Fuji in the hospital. I found that suspicious, so I had a senpai of mine with home repair experience come examine the building, since I was only getting sick at home.
He concluded I had reason to believe that someone had potentially sabotaged my gas line. My mother and father are the only people with access to this property.
I've left for the time being, but I wanted to ask you about what I should do next. I'm unsure of how to proceed.
Raito Sanda ( @ua-storm-duo )
What the hell.
Was the leak found and fixed?
Actually, forget about that. Just stay at the dorms.
Heavens, I want to put a bullet in that man so bad.
It's normal for extorted criminals to start pushing back, but their first course if action usually isn't murder.
If I were you I'd collect any evidence on the tampering and let him know that you're ready to follow up with legal consequences if he tries that shit again.
Hate to cite Chisaki here but you can also tie all the info along with your preexisting leverage into a neat little bundle bound to another dead man's switch.
This one won't be to save your life. It'll be mutually assured destruction. So you let him know the other shoe will drop if you bite it.
// 🧽 my comfy vacation is now over so rps will slow down again. Or rather, I won't be able to catch my Canadian friends when it's morning for you.
Will try to reply everyone once a day at least.
Well I did tell him that toga hated him in another universe. Perhaps the plague doctor actually saw that in his dreams?
Huh? What do you mean?
Chisaki doesn't tell me about his dreams ... assuming he dreams at all.
Ha! Good news! Chisaki appeared on my doorstep yesterday afternoon and asked me to come back work for him.
Bet you'll never guess what his reasoning was!
// ⚖️ @not-lady-nagant
Sanda wanted to throw up when he read the message. His mind felt completely numb. He should be happy for her.
He was incredibly jealous, and even more ashamed.
Congratulations. I'm somewhat surprised. That sounds uncharacteristic of him.
What was his reasoning?
Okay, get this: Apparently, Overhaul's afraid of me. Like, "top target on the hitlist" afraid.
He has zero idea that I don't just murder villains out of my own volition.
That's quite flattering.
I'd imagine it was also somewhat satisfying to have Mr. Chisaki be the one who had to come groveling back to you.
Yup.
He's too proud for grovelling, but he was pretty tame compared to his usual self.
Turns out, his mistake still doesn't compute for him, but he admitted to an error in communication, and the penny finally dropped that Overhaul will never yield an inch, so there's that.
I'm happy for you. I'm also glad the veil is finally starting to lift for him regarding Overhaul, since it sounds as though that's been an issue for some time.
My own discussion with Mr. Chisaki didn't go as smoothly, I'm afraid, but I'm glad that yours did. I wish you both the best.
A major fricking issue. It was like my word stood against Overhaul's every time spoke to Chisaki about the Hassaikai or that stupid-ass "cure".
Wait wait wait.
What did the jerk say to you?
Nothing out of the ordinary, honestly. I'm untrustworthy and this entire situation is my fault and whatnot. I didn't really have anything to refute him with. I gave up trying.
Which is absolutely unlike me, especially when it comes to arguing, but I don't know. I've been tired lately.
What. The. Fuck.
You know he's not right. It's not your fault.
It's ...
Okay, I get it. Arguing with him is exhausting and probably pointless since he already said he doesn't understand.
Look, if you still want your job back I can put in a good word for you.
I would very much appreciate that. I'm willing to do whatever it is that he wants me to do, but he's being extremely unclear on what it is he wants out of me. I'm beginning to suspect he doesn't actually know.
But I also don't want to come off as though I'm pestering him about it.
It's possible he really doesn't know.
From what I gathered he fired Toga out of paranoia and has spent the entire time burning bridges.
It'll take some time to get him to trust anyone again. I'm glad he's still trusting me right now.
Dunno if it's of any help to you but when I want something from him and he's being a stubborn ass about it I usually put a gun to his chest. Not literally.
Usually not literally.
But we also have leverage on each other, so it's a power play on equal level.
I've also pestered him about stuff before until he couldn't ignore it anymore. Then again, he has to interact with me daily so he can't block my messages or calls.
... Nevermind. Lemme me try my luck with him first.
It’s different when it’s you though. You’re his equal. You two have known each other for a very long time and he respects you. I don’t have that sort of relationship with him.
Either way, thank you. Please let me know how it goes.
Actually, we don't. We have known each other for less than a year, and we absolutely despised each other at first glance.
But ... eh, you might be right. I was always in a pretty strong position, with or without a hero licence ...
I'll inform you when I have news.
Ha! Good news! Chisaki appeared on my doorstep yesterday afternoon and asked me to come back work for him.

You're Shimura's fan aren't you?
@entayutaithe6thuser
... Shimura?
Where had she heard that name before?
Are you talking about Nana? That's how she introduced herself to me. But I know her mostly as the pro hero "Seventh Wonder" in my world.
Ah yes this proves my multiverse theory yet again. Yes Nana Shimura. The one who came after me. She was... a bit prone to giving attitude when she was younger.
Well, I loved her attitude. Soaked her confidence right up, so to speak!
... What do you mean by "the one who came after you"? Oh, wait. Were you her mentor?
Yes, yes I was, when we first met she was.. defiant.
She mentioned something about you ... lemme remember ...
You're the guy who taught her how to throw hands?
Sort of yes.
Sort of?
i taught her more than that
Okay, now I'm curious! What other tricks did she have up her sleeve?

if you could swap quirks with someone for 24 hours, who would you pick, if anyone?
Good question.
I think I would like to have Seventh Wonder's quirk, Float.
People don't consider it dangerous or threatening, it's graceful, and I imagine it feels nice, being able to move freely through the air.
Even the more “harmless” quirk can be dangerous. People are dumb.
Oh, I know. And even a "dangerous" quirk can be a lot more harmless than it looks.
"Danger lies in the eye of the beholder."
If a quirk is too strong it’s dangerous, if a quirk is too weak, it’s useless. Thirteen has a really powerful quirk and is able to use it responsibly. Lady Nagant could transform her arm in a riffle and she still decided to be a hero. Even a "harmless” quirk like mine could accidentally blind someone >_<
Either way, a flight quirk must be fun to use. Sorry for the philosophical rant.
Eeehhh ... Hate to break it to you but Lady Nagant didn't ... I mean she did choose to be a hero but society did a ton of convincing to push her in that direction.
You really know about heroes, you are even familiar with Lady Nagant! And most people don’t remember Seven Wonder, even though she was also amazing. Doesn’t society kind of influence everyone? Heroes are also normal people, even them are susceptible to influence. I think it’s admirable that she still chose to do something good with her abilities. I have always thought that being selfish and doing nothing is more tempting.
Yeah, I wished more people remembered Seventh Wonder. She deserved more credit.
Lady Nagant really wanted to do something good with her quirk, but I think her quirk wasn't actually suited for honest hero work.
Over 80% of the villains she single-handedly arrested suffered considerable injuries. If you forget about all the PR surrounding her, it's just logical, isn't it?
There's no way to incapacitate a criminal with a high-powered rifle but without causing injuries.
You are right, her quirk was a difficult one to manage. Either way, couldn’t you say the same about actual heroes? A lot of villains end with injuries and severe burns after fighting Endeavor. Mountain Lady causes a lot of destruction each time she uses her quirk, risking civilian’s lives and homes. There’s a villain who got a concussion after an attack of Cement. I know it’s not the same cause her quirk was actually a riffle, but what about Snipe? He also uses guns.
I’m not making excuses for her but I can understand why she ended injuring so many villains. It’s very complicated not to harm anyone, taking in consideration her quirk. It’s a miracle that percentage isn’t higher. Though, if she isn’t the only hero whose quirk can cause mortal wounds on villains, shouldn’t the Hero Commission do something about it? The police also use weapons and have been involved in incidents like that. There’s a whole debate about it.
Don't get me started on the Commission. Just thinking about them makes me sick to the stomach.
They're the ones dressing up all the violence for public consumption. They're selling children dreams of bloodshed. They took the very idea of heroism - altruism - and twisted it beyond recognition.
As far as I know, the only pro hero with more than five years of experience and a kill count of zero is All Might. He's the only real deal in my eyes.
Everyone else has dropped a body, often that of a criminal, as "collateral damage".
Oh, so you aren’t that much of a fan of heroes after all. I really like them but I try to be critical of my own fanaticism? I appreciate their work and how they keep us safe but as you said, the Commission is selling children a reality that doesn’t exist. Being a hero is not just glamour and fame, it’s violent and you must sacrifice your life every day.
You seem very passionate about these topics, do you like reading? There’s a few articles and books I could recommend you. I promise they aren’t anti quirk propaganda, I have seen too much of that lately and it’s a bit worrisome.
I like reading, but I genuinely can't concern myself with hero society for more than ten minutes. The fakeness of it all drives me up a wall, I swear. I had to give up watching the news years ago.
I'm sorry ... That probably makes me sound like a conspiracy theorist, doesn't it?
Nah, it’s perfectly alright, the news is made to catch people’s attention and it can be quite depressing sometimes, so you aren’t missing out. I’m into this stuff because of my job and sometimes forget everyone is not as passionate about these topics, sorry.
You aren’t a conspiracy theorist, it’s just hard to tell what is true or fake anymore. Oh no, I sound like one too.
It's all fake, from what I know. Or, at least, all the hero news reports are double-checked and sufficiently sanitized by the HPSC.
It's because I used to work for them that I know ... some ... of the numbers, and really too much of what they've been doing behind the scenes.
It's the kind of stuff you likely don't want to know about. And even if you do, I'm legally not allowed to tell.
That must have been horrible, I get now why you dislike them so much. I work as a reporter so if my freedom of speech is already limited in my agency, I don’t want to even imagine for someone working for the Commission.
It must be freeing for you to be away from all that stuff. I won’t ask anything! I know the fame reporters have. I won’t bother you. I’ll pretend I didn’t hear anything. I just hope you found a better job.
Oh, you're a reporter?
Tsutsumi didn't know how to feel about having been so close to spilling the whole truth about the HPSC to someone who could actually publish it.
Erm, thank you for your understanding. Most of the reporters I've met in my life were, well, far more "pushy".
I have found a better job, actually.
HAD a better job, she corrected internally.
Something very mundane and unremakable, away from the public eye.
Actually, I’m more into journalism and creative writing, not a fan of running all day looking for gossip. I wish I could do something useful.
Yep, I saw your expression. Most people make that face when I tell them about my job. However, I prefer to be honest about it. I can’t blame you, some of my coworkers are annoying, and they don’t respect people’s privacy and personal space!
I’m glad you got away from all that toxicity and corruption. By the way you talked about your work at the Commission, it’s clear it wasn’t a positive experience for you. There’s more in life than work.
Public eye? She can’t ask her about it either way. Hikari had already promised not to bother her with questions.
Ah, I see. Yes, the gossip is just the worst. There's so many better topics to write and read about.
It's not that I don't enjoy work. I love work, really. Had to figure out what hobbies even are after I broke away from the HPSC.
I still try to contribute to the world at large, just in different ways than before. Without a government body that dictates my every step.
Wow, they really controlled you then. I didn’t know the HPSC was so manipulative, how scary.
She sees a suspicious looking man waiting in an alleyway.
Oh! That’s my cue. A pleasure talking with you miss…?
Just Tsutsumi will do.
It was nice talking to you.
Tsutsumi was on her way home from grocery shopping - if you could call buying instant noodles and cheap wine grovery shopping - when she spotted a shady figure loitering around in front of the entrance to the apartment building she lived at.
A man in his early twenties, of average build and plain appearance, wearing a black dress shirt, and, most notably, gloves and a mask.
A small yet sudden wave of relief washed over Tsutsumi at seeing him alive, but she forced the corners of her mouth back into a neutral expression. He didn't deserve to know she'd been worried in the first place.
Tsutsumi barely even regarded him with a glance as she approached the entrance.
She scoffed.
What's the matter? Got bored playing shogi against yourself again?
He wasn’t looking her way, either.
Overhaul told to me to get you back because he thinks you're out to kill him.
Ha! I knew he secretly loved me!
He really doesn't.
It's still the most flattering thing he ever said about me.
She turned to him.
So what're you here for? Obeying Overhaul like a loyal little lapdog?
Chisaki shot her a brief glare and crossed his arms.
I made a mistake by not contacting you before telling Overhaul of the deal.
Look at that. A rare apolo-
And YOU made a mistake by not waiting for me to call you back before you went and physically assaulted a man.
Her mood soured again. Of course, he wouldn't give in that much.
Sure, because that was the core of the issue.
I spoke to other people about what you perceived as "the issue", and I still don't see how any of it is my fault.
Tsutsumi considered taking the wine bottle and hitting him over the head with it. That was probably a better use for it than drinking it, too.
But.
If I had known you'd do what you did, we could have compromised.
Right. He didn't get the moral failure but he got that actions had consequences, at least.
... Is that the best deal I'm getting?
We both agreed to part ways. If we both can agree that we made a mistake, we can resume this business partnership.
Wait - You want to make your business partner?
No, I was just referring to our professional relationship as it was before. Employer. Employee. I will restore your contract and the special clauses I had granted you.
Tch. I knew that sounded too good to be true.
Tsutsumi put a hand on her hip. How about a raise, then?
I didn't have the money for it before, what makes you think I have the money for it now?
Alright.
What about Overhaul? You gonna keep doing whatever he wants just so he lets you see the boss?
Chisaki averted his eyes again, but there was a glint of newfound resolve in them, even as he took a second to formulate his thoughts.
No. He will never let me see him, regardless of what I do.
He has to go down, and soon. The cure has to come second.
I'm not sure how many of the Hassaikai I can sway for my cause, but I will find a way to dethrone him. I have to, before he leads the clan to total ruin.
She smiled.
Now that I can get behind. Count me in.
In response, he gave an affirmative nod and promptly began to walk away as if their negotation had been concluded.
Tsutsumi let him take only a couple of steps before she spoke up again.
Hey.
You wanna come upstairs?
The food's terrible but the view's fantastic, she joked, lifting her shopping bag.
Tsutsumi knew him. She knew he hadn't had anyone to talk to after he had kicked her out. And she knew herself, too. As long as he was around, she wouldn't be moping or drinking.
He stopped walking, and, after a few seconds of contemplative silence, Chisaki looked back at her.
... Thank you.
You're Shimura's fan aren't you?
