thousand steps

[willynilly]

[She's not really built to be a long-distance stepper, nor is she especially fast, but she can train her own way- namely, erasing her own gravity in fits and bursts to fly up the steps in sets of ten at a time. It's still a workout of launching herself from one landing point to the next, but it's helping her to catch up, at least.

And she's somehow managing not to throw up! So hey, that's a perk.]

K-Kirishima! How did you climb so many!?

[nevermind she knows how- pure manly stubbornness, probably.]

[cinnamon_apple]

[That is exactly it. He's sort of got his ankles and hands focused on hardened right now, making him work out legs and arms more.]

This is my second round! You're looking good though!

[He did notice she hasn't puked! So he's considering that a win for her.]

[willynilly]

[WHAT, WHAT THE HECKIE]

Second!? That's too many steps...

[cinnamon_apple]

[OR IS IT.]

The first time was just a warm up! [Honestly? He's pretty exhausted, but it's still nothing compared to the stuff they do at UA.]

Have you been to the top yet? It's got a good view.

[willynilly]

No way, this is my first time. It's soooo high!

[you are a crazy person and it's no wonder you and Explodeykills are friends.]

I would like to see it, though.

[cinnamon_apple]

[He didn't really ever spend a lot of time with Ochako back at UA, Mostly because he was pretty busy with Kaminari and Bakugou, but here? He's got no problem hanging with her. He smiles, motions for her to follow.]

Well, let's go! Get you to the top.

[willynilly]

[the joy of these two- they can basically befriend anyone. which is why she smiles brightly despite her growing weariness and doubles her efforts, making sure to keep pace with his jogging.]

It must be a lot heavier when you're using your Quirk. Is that part of your training too?

[cinnamon_apple]

Kinda. Strength, speed. Figure it helps work out a lot of different things.

[He's slowing down a little - not because he thinks she can't keep up, but. Kind of that, actually, yeah. And to be fair, his legs are getting pretty worn out, but hopefully he gets a second wind here in a second.]

Helps with focus too. What are you training on? [Like, he gets what her power does, but he doesn't get how to train it....]

[willynilly]

Um- I get motion sick if I use my Quirk on myself, so I'm trying to minimize that by turning it on and off. And it's good practice to be able to activate quickly, I think?

[she's never done this before, so she's not entirely sure, but it's working so far.]

[cinnamon_apple]

Right I remember. [He'd heard about it anyway, back at the original entrance exam, that she'd gotten sick like that there at the end.]

Definitely a good idea to practice. If you ever want help, let me know. In the meantime! [There he goes, using one of the lower steps of a ladder to launch himself up 7 or 8 rungs at once.]

[willynilly]

[it is really unfair that he can do that on the fly. but!! it's just incentive to work that much harder, so she kicks off extra hard on her next step, keeping her Quirk active longer to fly a greater distance.]

Sensei'll probably start putting us through the ringer more than usual now that you're here... but at least you can divide his attention a little.

[cinnamon_apple]

[He gets a good grip and hangs out there for a second, then starts climbing up normally, watching her float on ahead of him.]

Oh man... So we really are the only UA students here. [He'd been kind of afraid of that.] Hasn't he been training you?

[willynilly]

Yeah... we are. It was just me for a while before he got here.

[and let's not talk about how depressing THAT was.]

And believe me, he has! That's the problem! Aizawa-sensei is too much for one student!

[cinnamon_apple]

Ooooooh.

[Okay no now he sees the problem. If it was someone like Bakugou or Midoriya, that would probably be okay. They live for that kinda training. But Ochako and himself?]

I'd die.

[willynilly]

I almost did!

[she is definitely exaggerating, but. BUT.]

[cinnamon_apple]

[Yeah, you wanna run that by him again so he can lose his grip on these rocks???]

But you didn't!

... Wait so you almost did from the stuff here, or almost did from Aizawa's training?

[Listen he has to get this straight.]

[willynilly]

[no because this is funnier]

Maybe I shouldn't say... you'll probably lose your mind.

[such hell it is, being the sole recipient of his attention...]

[cinnamon_apple]

[Wait no Uraraka don't do this to him. HE NEEDS TO KNOW.]

Come on, you can tell me. Promise I won't lose my mind.

[HE CAN'T PROMISE THAT.]

[willynilly]

Mmmmm... I just can't bear the weight of that responsibility. You'll have to see for yourself.

[it's too terrible to speak of... or maybe this is more fun.]

[cinnamon_apple]

[OCHAKO THIS IS CRUEL AND UNUSUAL PUNISHMENT. Kirishima's struggling a little bit now with getting up the stairs. They've gotten about halfway at least and he's determined to make it up a second time.]

What should I prepare myself for then? Come on, help me out.

[willynilly]

[dude that's why it's funny

but okay, okay. she pauses for thought, going one step at a time as she taps her chin.]

Let's see... I'm not sure how he'll change things with two of us, but we've had a lot of one-on-one sessions where he takes me through training drills for hours, asking me what I learned and building on it over and over until I can barely stand up...
