Guys' Night [OPEN]

[seafloor]

WHO: Dudes, dude. Bring all your dudely Outsiders, bro.
WHAT: Man I sure wish I could tell you Cracking a cold one open with the boys
WHERE: The Onsen
WHEN: 4/11
WARNINGS: Alcohol, nudity, dad jokes... This'll be updated accordingly

[ A few days after the girls have had their fun (cause girls just wanna have fun), another blanket text sweeps over the Outsiders' inboxes. This time, it's from Kaito: and he is proposing a very original idea that all the guys should come by the hot springs in a few days' time. Gossip and bathing are optional, but an empty stomach is mandatory.

Several pictures of newly purchased smokers, grills, and even a fucking pizza oven can be seen at various points throughout the message. There are also mountains of stacked beer and soda cases. Kaito's apparently going to be cooking enough to feed the whole base, or so he purports.

Where did he get all the money for this? Whatever, it's free!

He also adds in no uncertain terms that if any girls try to show up and sneak a snack, he will send them home with a stern warning and a bottle of water.

If you take him up on the invitation, welcome! It's a spring cookout and Pitmaster Kaito Nagano is going to be serving up enough barbeque to temporarily turn the onsen area into a Texan territory within Japan. Seriously, there's gonna be a metric fuckton of food and booze, and the hot springs will be right there when you're ready to get hot and hungover.

There are absolutely no plans after food. Feel free to stick around and socialize, but you will not be publicly shamed for just yoinking a plate and dip setting. Probably.

Aside from the barbeque, there are some horseshoes and cornhole boards set up (google it, it's safe, this is not a bit it's just a funny name for an american game) for dudes to try their hand-eye coordination at after having one too many drinks.

If you're feeling particularly brave, Kaito's got an ice box full of artificial fish (all the meat's artificial, let's be real) that you can try to attract a feral cat with. Good luck. ]

(( ooc: hello yes i didn't want The Boys™ to feel left out so feel free to make top levels and just get some general cookout social time in with your boyos. make it as friendly or awkward or awkwardly friendly as possible. go nuts. get naked. cause a ruckus. [ insert toxic masculinity here ] ilu ♥ ))

[He agrees, Bakugo wins, topic done. See how easy that is?]

What do you do for a day job anyways?

[Curious.]

[eyescar]

What, here?

[ He griiins. ]

Firefighter.

[blastedass]

Haa?! What sector? I'm on the police force.

[Unless they're, you know, the kind NOT to send out firetrucks + ambulance along with each police car dispatch...]

[eyescar]

I don't know... I just go where they tell me...

[ Sorry, Bakugo... ]

[blastedass]

[Hey neither of them control where their squads go. He just thinks it's cool Yuji's a firefighter.

You know. A hero occupation.]

It suits you.

[eyescar]

It's what I thought about being before everything.

[ Eating the fingers and everything. ]

[blastedass]

Planning on going to the training school?

[Talk about a derail... though technically Yuji's fighting fires?]

[eyescar]

Nah. I'm not gonna live that long.

[ WHOOPS

NOT IN FRONT OF BAKUGO - ]

I mean, not in the human world anyway!

[blastedass]

[Joke's on you; he already knows about this.]

You're gonna live, idiot.

[eyescar]

[ Read like an open book. ]

I know, you said.

[blastedass]

[Unless there were other developments, and Bakugo will still be stubborn about it.]

Don't accept death so easily, Gari Head.

[eyescar]

What if it's the only option?

[ A real, genuine question. ]

[blastedass]

Fight for another one.

[Death is almost, never, ever, the only option. He refuses to believe that. Despite knowing a situation in his own world that boiled down to... it being the only option.]

[eyescar]

... Okay.

[ He kicks his feet out with a huff. ]

I'll do my best, dandelion.

[blastedass]

Talk to me about it later.

[He wants to know more, to understand why Yuji is so habitual to loop around to his own death. It clashes so hard with Bakugo's heroic ideals and mindset, and while he'd love to just "FUCK YOU, WRONG!" each time, it's not going to help.

He wants to understand.]

Have you put out any fires here so far?

[No getting sad, remember.]

[eyescar]

[ Right, right, no sad. He's said that, right?

Nodding, he hums. ]

There was one, just after the tsumami, but they don't want to let me go out on too many since they think I'm too young.

[blastedass]

The fuck?! What the hell does age mean when you can throw a damn truck?

[They should be happy to have someone like Yuji working with them!]

[eyescar]

They haven't seen that!

[ He's TRYING to act normal! ]

[blastedass]

Show them!

[Well, unless he doesn't want them to... which he vocally concedes a few seconds later.

Grumbly, but accepting.]

[eyescar]

Maybe another time, okay? I'm busy enough.

[ Sooo much going on, all the time!! ]

[blastedass]

Yeah, yeah.

[He won't browbeat him.]

You get to ride the truck at least, right?

[eyescar]

Duh.

[ Grin. ]

And I get to go down the pole.

[blastedass]

[Look he wanted to make sure Yuji wasn't stuck at the station for being to "young" to whatever.]

Why don't they just operate on the ground floor?

[No pole needed.]

[eyescar]

Where would they put the trucks?

[ Obviously? ]

[blastedass]

In the damn garage!

[Duh!]
