[How do you tell your new best friend about your homeworld best friend?

... Okay, yeah, Yuji is his best friend here. Official acceptance.]

Kirishima Eijirou. He's my classmate. He's brave, loud, happy, and has a thing for manliness. Dumb as a brick sometimes. But he's one of those "what you see is what you get" kind of people. Probably one of the friendliest guys I know.

[eyescar]

[ Maybe Yuji is lucky, that his best friend is here, so he doesn't have to miss him that much... It must be hard, for Katsuki.

So he listens, nodding his head. ]

Dumb as a brick... [ And comparing him to Yuji... Ouch. But he gets it. ] I can get why you'd compare us.

[blastedass]

[There are times when it's difficult. Kirishima is way different than Todoroki and Midoriya. But he has other friends and confides in them or hangs out with them too. It's not all bad.]

Don't just focus on that, dammit! [Yuji, you vocally don't give yourself much credit in the smarts department either.] You've got a lot more positives.

[eyescar]

Well, I failed my exams, so that's fine to focus on!

[ He's smart in physical stuff, not the academics! He knows that! ]

[blastedass]

Don't focus on failing it! Focus on passing the next time!

[Letting failure power you forward is one thing; admiring failure is stupid. Again.]

[eyescar]

That's what Ratio-sensei said.

[ He waves his hand absently. ]

He's going to find the best way that I learn and teach me that way.

[blastedass]

Probably a mix of physical and study. You're not the kind of guy who can read books and absorb it.

[Not everyone is, even if that makes Katsuki's brain go "BUT HOW?!" at them.]

[eyescar]

I tried reading a lot for these exams, but it just didn't work.

[ He did work really hard, even if he failed. A lot. ]

We're going to work on it.

[blastedass]

[Hm...]

What topic do you know most about? Something you think you could teach someone about.

[Academic, fighting, food, a person.]

Anything.

[eyescar]

Me?

[ Yuji blinks, staring up at Katsuki for a moment. ]

... I don't really know. I guess hand to hand fighting?

[blastedass]

No, Uni Hair.

[Yes you! Who else?!]

How'd you learn it? I know your grandfather taught you a little.

[eyescar]

[ Flicks his face, just because he can. ]

A little from my grandpa, and then just messing around myself.

[blastedass]

[Oy! Grrr...

The idea Yuji got as good as he did just by himself is kind of ridiculous (in the "holy shit" way, not the "that's stupid" way), yet Katsuki trained on his own plenty while he was growing up. Didn't enter U.A. ready to learn the fucking basics, or even intermediate shit. But... he also took classes as well as solo trained.]

I'm gonna punch at your face. Deflect it.

[Katsuki doesn't straight up SLUG him, just pushes his fist towards Yuji with plenty of heads up; he wants to see what he'll do and how.]

[eyescar]

[ Unfortunately, he was bred to be this way.

Katsuki goes to hit at his face, and Yuji's hand comes up almost on instinct to grab at it and deflect it. ]

Hah?

[blastedass]

[Cinnamon roll bread.

But that's what Katsuki wanted to know.]

How'd you learn to do that? Training dummies don't swing back.

[eyescar]

I don't know. I just do it.

[ He leans back, arm flopping down. ]

[blastedass]

[Definitely brawn over brain.]

You learn best with repetition, don't you.

[Katsuki braces his hands behind himself for support.]

[eyescar]

Sure! There are some things I get pretty quickly, but practice helps. When I learned Black Flash from Todo it was easy enough.

[ Which... Isn't normal. ]

[blastedass]

Gojo and Jujutsu High mostly focused on your physical training, didn't they.

[That explains a lot.]

[eyescar]

For what time I was there, yeah. It was only a few months, and then missions started, and then Shibuya happened. And I was dead for two of them.

[ It's not entirely their fault... ]

[blastedass]

You were dead for two months?!

[What the fuck?! He knows Yuji's been on death's door before, but...]

[eyescar]

I wasn't actually dead, but people thought I was.

[ It's complicated... ]

[blastedass]

THAT'S A BIG DIFFERENCE!!

[It's not complicated! Just worded shit!]

[eyescar]

Everyone thought I was dead so it was basically like that! Only Gojo-sensei, Nanamin and Ijichi-san knew.

[ A shrug! ]

[blastedass]

I didn't need to think you were dead for two months.

[Don't shrug it off! Sheesh!

Ugh... at least he gets over it fast enough.]

What'd you do during those months? Secret training?
