So you're the friend she mentioned last time. It's great that you have each other here.
I know I said it before, but I really miss the internet. It'd be a lot easier to look up mythological creatures like this and prepare ourselves if we had access to that information here.

Because we're friends. [Izuku says quietly again, as if reminding himself.
He turns to Minato with a teary smile.] I'll try my best, Arisato-kun.
[It's a hard habit to break.]

i'm glad she's here. when we're together it's like we can do anything! if aoi were here to we'd be unstoppable!
yeah. that would be really useful...but maybe there are other people who might know more. i've met some people who can use magic and all that. maybe they'll know more?

[When Deku finally returns home, he'll find a note pinned to his front door. It's folded into a neat little square, but it should rather hard to miss; it does, after all, have his name written on the front in this obnoxious blue ink. Weird, right? But that handwriting should be very familiar...]
"Deku-kun-
Please send me a message as soon as you can! We're all out looking for you, but I'll check my laptop every time I take a break. Just tell what I can do to help you! I'll bring whatever you need.
And you don't have to explain anything. Minato-kun told me what happened.
[A few lines are scribbled out here. It's like she started four or five different sentences and just... couldn't find the right way to word them.]
I didn't believe him at first. It was so hard to think about you... disappearing, and for a minute, I was even scared that you might be gone forever. That's silly, though! And I'm really sorry! I shouldn't have thought that at all, because you're amazing, Deku-kun. I know that you're trying your hardest to find a way back to us. You will find a way back to us.
I can't wait to see you!!!
-Ochako"
I have friends here I feel the same way about. What's Aoi-san like?
It's possible! We had quirks back home, but we've never had to deal with monsters like this. Or maybe, if we manage to complete that one quest, we could check the library for information. If the forest has so many monsters, created or not, then it makes sense that the people who lived here before might have run into them.

[Izuku's content to just work quietly, only occasionally making a sound of triumph every time he manages to find something that they could use as bait.
The near-silence is a comfortable one.]

[Sorey's over on his side of the room, scrolling through the forum on his own laptop when he notices Izuku's post. A quick read through prompts him to turn around so he can talk to him directly.]
Hey, just saw your post. What's unusual about the stuff we found in the forest?
[He glances over to the chest full of rusted weapons he still has nearby.]
I was hoping to get those fixed up and handed out soon, but if they're dangerous, I want to know.

[Oh, boy. You just had to ask...]
aoi is really smart! she always has the best score out of the three of us whenever there's a test! she's cute! and she wears glasses! and when she gets angry she sometimes makes people hang upside down in the air! she's also kind of petty. probably even more than shiho.
but she's dependable in a pinch. she may panic but she's the best at keeping a cool head! and she's loyal and brave. if you're her friend she'll never let you down and she'll always choose to stand beside you no matter what happens.
[She could easily give you the same sort of tl;dr about Shiho if asked.]
oh, i hadn't thought of the library! it'd be nice if we could see what's in there...hopefully enough people can complete that quest! i want to know more about the people who were here before too...

Oh, it's a meme. [Well, Izuku's on the internet enough to know what that is.]
Hey, if you explain them to me, I'll know what they are the next time you use them!

[As if all the tears he'd already cried on Uraraka's shoulder weren't enough, seeing the note she'd left for him while he was gone only brings it all back.
He has some of the best friends in the world, and somehow, they seem to have so much faith in him. Knowing that would usually fill him with warmth, but now, it reminds him how he'd failed to keep himself safe like he'd promised. That the only reason he can make it back to his friends is by some stroke of luck.
Izuku furiously scrubs the tears away, leaving his eyes puffy and red, and folds up the letter to slip carefully into his pocket. One thing's clear: he needs to get stronger. Letting his friends down is not something that Izuku wants to do again.]

I think so! [He checks his bucket, and then peers into Todoroki's.]
Between the two of us, we should have enough to at least catch something. Oh, I heard there's some fish who have their color back, too. If we catch enough of those, we can cook some for ourselves.

Oh! They're not dangerous. At least, not in any way that's different than normal weapons. [Oops, he probably should have clarified that.]
It's just... apparently the creatures were put there for us to find.

[Shiho had talked to her at length about this plan and Kaoru can't say she liked it in the least. But she had to respect Shiho's choices and it wasn't as if she was going alone...but still--
She was worried. About everyone (though she'd be lying if she said her worry for Shiho wasn't stronger than for the others. She can't help it after having been friends for so long...) But she didn't want to burden anyone with her childish tantrum. So she does what she always does when she wants to act mature: she does what she thinks Minamoto would.]
remember to bring comfortable shoes. go to the washroom before you leave. are you guys bringing lunch? don't bring anything that needs a microwave.
and don't let shiho do anything stupid. she likes to pretend she's the cool and cute one but she's more impulsive than anyone expects.

[Wow, Kaoru, that's So Much.]
I wish I could meet her. Not that I'd want her to get dragged into this place and have to deal with everything that's happening.
I hope so! To both of those. It would helpful if we could actually get some information from the books here.

[She just loves her friends a lot.]
she's probably mad that she's been left out, so i don't think she'd mind too much being here.
[Because Aoi doesn't like feeling left out and she liked leaving Kaoru and Shiho on their own in a difficult situation even less. Even if Kaoru would prefer she stayed home where it was safer, she knew it wasn't what Aoi would want.]
it'd be nice to have something else to read besides the forums.

[At first, Kaoru's message only confuses him, with it seemingly coming out of nowhere. What could she be talking about? And then it hits him. Shiho. The trip they're making into the forest for the pendant. Suddenly, it all makes a lot more sense. Of course Kaoru would be worried for her friend, close as the two of them are.]
Don't worry, we'll pack food that's easy to carry around and eat.
I'll look out for her, too. Akashi-san. I won't let anything happen to her.
[Reassuring her is all he can do right now. And Izuku has no intention of letting the others get hurt if he can help it.]

I think so, too.
As fun as it could be to read everyone's thoughts on this place, I've missed having books around.
Are you working on the written word quest? It's hard to keep track of the groups sometimes.

well...good. make sure you do that.
[She didn't doubt he would have done it even if she hadn't asked because he seemed like that sort of person. But it was reassuring to actually have it said...well, written.]
and look out for yourself too! you're both my friends! so make sure you both come back safely or i won't let you hear the end of it!

[...hah. 'Reading people's thoughts'. For a moment Kaoru had seen those words and been confused but, of course, he meant literally reading what people thought on the forums.]
people sure say a lot on the internet! i wonder if there's anyone who'll use the anonymity of the hexcodes to say weird things?
[Even if there were she was the last person who had the right to complain about it...]
shiho and i were asked by iida-kun to complete it together!
