[[An almost gaunt looking figure shuffles himself, and his fancy new outfit thanks to the festivities, in a seated position to get more comfortable. For the most part there is a metallic stopper on the back part of the wrist of a hand covering the man's face]]

These posts always made me wonder what kind of civilization I've been pulled into that we all sit around and talk to ourselves until other people do or don't decide to talk back.

[[He turns his head in what seems to be an attempt to get any knots out of it, while he speaks, eventually settling it back on the most comfortable spot on the arm of his couch.]]

Before any of you kind souls tries to gg me on being here, sitting by myself, talking into the post, I'm aware. Your humour is dry. I'm just bored and thought I'd follow the herd like every other upstanding citizen. So here I am, talking to myself and curious about what those out there, will say back.

Is social media non-existent where you're from?

Humans all crave interaction all the time, whether they admit to it or not.

[facepalmchampion]

It's huge where I'm from, but the idea of talking to ourselves until someone like you comes along came to mind and made me wonder who and what was out there thinking it's normal. That's all.

I wonder if that implies that non-humans could care less.

[It's been so long since he saw someone from the same world other than Shouto, but the possibility was always there. Anyone could show up, even Tomura.

A year or more still hasn't been enough to stale some memories. Tomura was here, long enough to get a fucking wardrobe change, and Katsuki hadn't known shit about it. Katsuki sees red, any terror he feels overwhelmed.]

[hot_handed]

You son of a bitch.

[facepalmchampion]

[[What an interesting turn of events. When he sees the messages pop up, he ponders over the user name and chuckles by the time he's recording his message back.]]

Lord Explosion Murder now is it...? How good to see a friendly face. I see your temper hasn't dulled, just your social queues?

[hot_handed]

Where the hell are you?

[Fuck, he hates him.]

[facepalmchampion]

[[The ire in his voice is amusing to Shigaraki and there's a bare minimum of upturned, dry lips. That's close enough to a smile.]]

Why? Did you want to come over? The last time I invited you to where I was staying didn't go so well if you remember.

[hot_handed]

I want to fucking kill you, you shitty piece of garbage, and I will if you don't shut up and tell me where the fuck you are.

[It's taking all of his willpower not to just blow up his furniture right now.]

[facepalmchampion]

So if I don't tel you where I am, you'll kill me... but if I tell you where I am...

[[He gives an idle scratch at the front of his neck, just under the palm of the hand, mostly in thought.]]

You'll kill me?
Are you that unhappy to see me? Even after I invited you into somewhere I thought you'd be happy?

[The face may be covered, but the voice is familiar.]

It's normal to respond to people you know when they send a message into the void, isn't it?

[facepalmchampion]

Mm? I only know two of the people who've responded. Someone from home and you, caretaker to the underworld of this place. What does that say about the rest, sensei?

[tigerpoet]

Well, there are are always people who are just social. Or bored.

[facepalmchampion]

Social or bored...
Which one are you?

[tigerpoet]

Neither. Just always happy to see a familiar face.

[Lack of visible face aside.]

[facepalmchampion]

[[He pauses, considering.]]
The third option, friendly.

[[Friendly isn't a good thing to be to Shigaraki, at least, not in the kindly way that this man is.]]

I think you'd be the first one that was happy, though.

[tigerpoet]

[It's fine, what could possibly go wrong?]

Is there any reason I shouldn't be?

[facepalmchampion]

[[It's fiiiiine. He's actually putting conversational thought into his answer, shifting again to brush some of his hair aside the hand over his face.]]

None that I can think of. I saved your life.

[tigerpoet]

I did have a sword if it came to that...

[he would've been fine!]

[facepalmchampion]

Like I told you back then, it's not about your capability to fight. It's about proving to your opponent not to try in the first place. Next time, take the sword out first.

[[Contradicting? Sure it is. He just really dislikes people who can't take no for an answer when it comes to that and a few other social situations.]]

[tigerpoet]

That just seems terribly rude, though...?

I spent at least ten years with no one to talk to.

I suppose it makes no difference to me if I am talking to someone or talking to a void.

[ It's the beginning of the month and the Sanguis moon is full force, which means that Peter shoulders and arms are covered by random scratches and bites here and there thanks to his girlfriend. He usually keeps them covered but it's been too hot lately to wear long sleeve and a tank top can just do so much.

The man on the screen is curious-looking, to say the least. Is that a hand??? But Peter has seen all sorts of weird things in his life, so, who is he to judge. ]

Humans, and a whole lot of other alies species, are social creatures. We crave connections so we even talk to inanimate objects. I don't know if you ever met people who own a Roomba but you will never guess what happens.

And some people just like attention and do stupid shit on the net or ask for hookups. Infinite possibilities for infinite dumbassery.

[ ... ]

Is that a hand on your face?

[ HE HAD TO ASK, sorry. Kinda hard to ignore the elephant in the room when it loosk like a severed limb on someone's face. ]

[facepalmchampion]

It's almost cute that you think it's out of politeness he didn't just follow or challenge the idea you had a random person to meet in an alley in the darkest, dankest parts of this city. Be rude, it might save your life.

[facepalmchampion]

The last ten years? I'm asking the obvious: Why?

You've piqued my curiosity to if that's true or not even now.
