Choso, I've been meaning to ask. How did the pact work for you? It seems like it worked well, but I wanted to hear your feelings on it.

[gimu]

Hello Raidou.

It was eye-opening. There is so much more to these pacts than I initially thought. I look forward to see what more we can accomplish like this.

[the_fourteenth]

I wasn't sure it would work at all, and it worked better than I could have imagined. I'm glad that I can be of help in battle in such a way.

[Speaking of. There's a brief pause as he takes a moment to form his thoughts.]

I would also like to apologize for needing you to come rescue us during the mission like that, and letting Yuji get to such a state.
I can assure you that I will not let it happen again.

[gimu]

I know it won't. You both are so determined like that, in your own ways.
What matters to me is that we, all three of us are here to do it better for next time.

We lived. I am glad.

[the_fourteenth]

I am too, but that was a very close call.

[A pause again, then:]

I don't want to see Yuji get like that because of me.

[gimu]

nor i.

but if it is not for you or not for me, he will use himself up for another. he will pull himself apart if it means saving someone, because he is yuji.

the problem to solve then is not one solely of you or i, Raidoy, but in keeping the rest of our allies safe.

we must give people like yuji and bakugo the peace of mind to fight without looking back.

[the_fourteenth]

I know. He's like me in that way... So many people here have told me that, even.

But he's so much stronger than me. He's so strong I can barely wrap my head around it.

If the best I can do is to help make fighters like you, and him, and Bakugo better, then I will accept this.

When I first arrived, I thought nothing changed about my role when it came to protecting others. That it was the same as home. I've seen now that it's not the case.

[gimu]

yuji is the strongest person i know. [ even after bakugo, even after Toji ]

what do you want to do, Raidou?
not what do you think you must do
but what you want

[the_fourteenth]

I want to help others and not be a burden.

[For once, answered without a moment of hesitation.]

[gimu]

then we will make it so.

let us not waste the time given us to fear. we must discover how best to lend our aid for when the next kaiju comes calling.

[the_fourteenth]

I don't fear myself getting hurt or killed in battle, only if others do, especially if my lack of skill lead to it.

[There's a pause again, because that was more than he really wanted to say, but it slipped out. The dangers of texting with your thoughts. Blame the glitches, maybe.]

I know I will have little to fear if I can help you all get through a mission as safe as possible.

[gimu]

then it is my mission to protect your back so that you, too, can act with freedom.

we walk together now.

[the_fourteenth]

Thank you. We do. I'm glad to have you on my side.

[gimu]

we will keep yuji safe. i have faith in you, Raidou
