nothing BAD. we found a lot of oranges, and then we found a graveyard. that was a little spooky. but then we met a ghost, and that was REALLY spooky! he was friendly, though!
[That seems honestly pretty scary to him too... talking to a ghost.]
It's pretty impressive that you were able to talk to him like that, even though he was a ghost. I don't know if I would've been able to think of something like that.
You're right... I'm glad that we weren't alone, even though the forest tried to split us up like that. And thanks, Ochako-san. I really appreciate that.
If you ever run into something crazy like that again, I'll do the same for you, okay?
[Buddy, you brought this upon yourself when you gave her that glass of water.]
he's doing okay right now.
[Should she leave it at that? Deku is under enough pressure as it is, but... she hates to see him beat himself up over this, and Minato is a caring person... and a friend...]
that's not really true. he's trying to ACT okay, but i think that he feels guilty, and sad. deku-kun is a kind person, and even though this wasn't his fault i know he's blaming himself.
minato-kun, please don't tell this to anyone!!! i'm only telling you because i trust you, and because i know that you're kind, too. maybe you can help us support him.
[Ah... that's what he thought it might be. Izuku seemed like the sort of person who would take way too much responsibility on his shoulders over this...
He's grateful that Ochako could at least confide this in him--hopefully he'll be able to help at least a little.]
I won't tell anyone. [First assurance! And then:]
I thought it might be something like that. Midoriya-kun seems like the sort of person who takes a lot of responsibility for the people around him... I'll try to do what I can to help make him feel better too. We all decided on our own to go in, after all. It's not his fault.
I did. One of my senpai is here, and one of my classmates too. I feel kind of the same way, I think. I'm really grateful for the chance to see them, but for Mitsuru-senpai especially, it'd probably be better if she was back home...

i'll do it! (•̀o•́)ง
nothing BAD. we found a lot of oranges, and then we found a graveyard. that was a little spooky. but then we met a ghost, and that was REALLY spooky! he was friendly, though!
[Yeah, see? Totally normal over here.]
no subject
You met an actual ghost?
For real? You're sure he was a ghost?
no subject
and he didn't do anything bad, even though we were really scared. he just seemed lonely! so we talked to him until he disappeared.
[She's casually glossing over the fact that she was terrified. Absolutely terrified. Minato doesn't need to know that she screamed... that's Lame.]

no subject
so if you find a ghost, or if you find another minotaur, i'll definitely come help you!
[Please don't find a minotaur.]

no subject
it's a deal! i'm so happy that we're friends!
no subject
What.
What is he supposed to do with that sort of sincere, sweet warmth? Minato blinks slowly, and. He honestly needs a minute or two to respond to that?
(It's a simple text, Minato, it's gonna be okay.)]
Right. Me too.
[Nice, nailed it. CHANGE IN SUBJECT.]
I'm glad you're doing alright after all of that, though. I guess we'll have to come up with a better plan for next time.
no subject
i'm glad you're doing alright, too. we'll be prepared next time. i know it!
no subject
We can do our best... how's Midoriya-kun doing? I hope he doesn't feel too responsible for all of this.
no subject
he's doing okay right now.

[To her? Or just in general? Don't ask!]
i think he just needs some time, and to know that people care about him. we can handle that.
no subject
Hmmm!!]
We can definitely handle that.
[But. Now he is curious.]
You all go to the same school back home, right? Are you classmates?
no subject
we are! yaomomo, iida-kun, todoroki-kun, and kirishima-kun are in our class, too! it's weird that so many of us wound up here.
no subject
no subject
minato-kun, did you find anyone from your home?
no subject
[And not with her two very dead castmates. Oops.]
no subject
no subject
Maybe so. That would be nice. It seems like a lot of people have some really pressing things to get back home to, too.
