awashlogs | June Catch All

[It's a dinner that was a long time in the making! (Sorry, Shiho.) Though Izuku doesn't have as many ingredients as he'd like to work with, he does his best with what he has available around the town. After spending the afternoon prepping and then cooking, everything's finally ready!

And just in time, apparently, because he thinks he can hear Kaoru and Shiho knocking at the door.]

Hey! [Izuku swings the door open with a grin as he lets them in.] No pizza delivery this time?

[Some questionable time after the FRIENDSHIP TOURNAMENT (caps necessary) happens, Izuku remembers that Noctis hasn't cashed in on his prize yet and decides to send him a message.]

User: #FFDF00

Noctis-san! I was thinking about the TOURNAMENT just now and realized you never told me what you want me to draw a picture of. Have you thought of anything?

[After glancing through the comments in Bruce's post, Izuku realizes that if Kyrie's been keeping track of everything since day one, then this would be a great chance to double check his own list as well.

So, here's a surprise message in your inbox, Kyrie!]

User: #FFDF00

Kyrie-san! This is Midoriya. I was wondering if you were busy right now?

[It's like suddenly, he has so many questions about everything that happened this past week, and they all come flooding back in as soon as his curiosity returns. There's a lot to process, though, so rather than staying indoors, Izuku grabs the wish coin he's kept on his desk and heads out for the well.

He's not actually planning to make a wish yet, but he is curious to know how this might work. And wow, is it a relief to feel like investigating things again, even if he hadn't known anything was missing the whole time.]

Oh! [With these coins in play, it's no surprise that someone else is already near the well when Izuku gets there. It's someone that he recognizes, too.] Mutsu-san! It's good to see you again.

[With your curiosity gone, things are surprisingly boring. Who knew? Rather than staying glued to his laptop and poking around on the forum like he usually would do at this time, Izuku decides to head out to the gardens. They're soothing to look at, now that some of the flowers actually have color again, and Izuku's even made a point of moving more of the colored flowers into the greyer plots.

He's in the middle of doing exactly that when he notices he's got some company.]

Ah, sorry! I'm not in your way, am I?

[Bag for carrying the wool back, check. One yellow...check! Shears...not quite check yet. Izuku hums, staring down at the various scissors and even a sharpened garden shear that are spread out on the table.]

I don't think we have the proper tools for wool shearing, but these should work, right?

[Right???]

[With wisdom and knowledge between the two of them, this quest should go extremely smoothly, right? Or so one hopes.

Being the city boy that he is, though, Izuku is extremely clueless about anything involving farm animals.]

Zelda-san, have you ever shorn sheep before?

[When Izuku heads over to Noctis' place to get started for the quest, he can't help but grin a little at his friend.]

Last time it was geese, this time it's sheep. I think I'm starting to see a pattern here. [He shifts the backpack strap on his shoulder, and the movement sends the metal tools inside clicking together.] Have you done anything like this before?

[Because he sure hasn't.]

[Shouto is, as always, ready and willing to go out on a quest with Midoriya. All he has to hear is a request and the answer will always be yes.

That said... sheep sheering seems like a very weird quest- but it's better than trying to kill something?]

Probably? I've never tried to sheer wool before.

[After the absolute fiasco that was the last quest, Izuku dutifully uses up some of his time to gather supplies for the clinic now that things are settling down again. On the way back, he stops by Maribelle's house, intending to drop the supplies off.]

Maribelle-san? [Knock, knock!]

Th-that's okay! I haven't either, but even if we're not 100% sure, I think we've already figured out the basics!

[Izuku clenches his hands in front of him, a look of determination on his face. As much as he disliked that previous quest, this one is much less stressful (or so he hopes), and doing quests have always proven to help the town in some way. No room for doubt here!]

I'm sure as long as we give it our all, we'll be able to complete the quest successfully. Let's do our best!

We'll do our best.

[He'll pick up the sheers and look over at Midoriya. This is a much simpler quest, the rules are more clearly defined and there's nothing trying to cheat them.]

Anyway, do you think it's one sheep or more than one?

[ A surprise!! Sort of, anyway. He wasn't sure who it would be from, but he sort of figured this sort of attention would come his way with his agreement to cooperate with Bruce.

Still, it isn't long before there's a response--he must not have been very busy after all. ]

What a redundant question. Surely asking something so stupid by way of these messages has the same effectiveness as leaving someone a paper note--whether they had been busy when your question had been sent or not doesn't matter, since the addition of "right now" implies that they ought to answer as they are at the time of their response, isn't that right?

Now, did you have a better question to ask of me? Or do you intend to waste my time with further roundabouts?

Honestly? No. [ don't ask princess zelda about farm work. not that she has told more than two people her title. ] Though I do have a basic idea of how it works! I just hope the sheep don't mind...

[She laughs.]

Well, it's rude to bring food when the host is cooking, right? That's like saying we don't think you'll do a good job so we're bringing pizza just in case.

Besides, we have so much faith in your skills.

[Shiho grins, following after Kaoru and already looking expectantly towards where she thinks there may be food.]

( He's looking down into the well when Izuku finds him. It's hard to believe that just a little while ago, he'd been down there and now here he is, up on land and experiencing a whole new world. He'd been a part of the second batch to appear from the well... so would another group appear? When would that happen? Who would be among them? Why did everyone come from the well? What was so special about it? And why does he feel like if he were to make a wish right now...

He has a hundred questions running through his mind and it's something he can relate to with Izuku. When he hears someone call him, he looks up, bright and cheerful like he wasn't just lost in thoughts a second ago. )

Midoriya-kun! Did ya come to see this place too? ( The well? ) What's on your mind?

( Is it the wishes? It's probably those wishes, isn't it? That's why everyone has been coming here, at least. )

[it takes a troubling long for her to answer the door, and when she does, it's a very tiny, slow creak, making sure she can't be seen.]

... Izuku? Is that you?

I'm in the same boat... I know the basic idea, but I've never done it before.

[He holds up a pair of garden shears that have been sharpened just for this occasion.]

So, um... I guess we'll just have to figure it out as we go?

Mmm could be more than one. Let's do a few just in case!

[Because while doing more than the required amount most likely wouldn't get them a fail, doing less definitely would.]

Um, a lot of things! [At least he's honest to a fault. Izuku grins at him sheepishly.]

I really wanted to come here and think about the wish, though! Is that what you're doing, too?

[Ah, Izuku probably should have expected something like this from Kyrie. He isn't at all deterred, though.]

That might be true, but it's always polite to ask someone if they have the time to talk instead of just assuming, right?

Anyway, I do, actually! Have another question. I wanted to ask if you'd be willing to meet up with me and check our list of hex codes together? I've tried my best to be thorough, but it's better to make sure!

I hope it doesn't disappoint! [They've helped him a lot, after all. This dinner isn't just to fulfill a promise he made to Shiho before, but also to thank them for their help.]

This way! Just pull up a chair for yourself. [Still smiling, he leads them over to the living room, where the table's been covered with various dishes--stuffed potatoes, grilled corn, grilled fish, and the like. There's also little bowls of berries next to the hot dishes, too.] Um... I know there's not a lot of choices here, but I think everything should taste okay!

[He hopes so!]

It's me! [Though his greeting is enthusiastic as ever, some concern makes its way onto his face when he tilts his head and tries to look into that crack in the doorway.]

Are you okay? [Something feels off about the way she's acting...]

There's no reason not to do a couple.

I guess we should start?

[How are they even going to find invisible sheep though...?]
