Peace Week

[mockmods]

[So, with introductions made, you're all left to your own devices for the time being. Explore, make friends, try not to go insane in your new surroundings. Maybe organize a game of that Trailseeker thing? Your time is your own.]

[You are woken every day at 7:30 AM by the same robotic voice that woke you on day one. At 11pm each night, a similar message plays reminding everyone about the start of quiet hours and dimming the lights.]

[If you want to talk to Penny, she can be found in the Security Office if she's not anywhere else in the Facility. Office hours appear to be whenever.]

Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday | Friday | Saturday

((Please tag any investigation toplevels as such, and ping the mods on Plurk or discord if possible!))

That's very admirable.

[Well, not everyone learns to unlock their Semblance, either.]

I think you'll make an excellent Hero someday.

[mightdoriya]

[Oh...] That's...very nice of you to say, Penny-san. [Izuku isn't sure how he feels about Penny yet, but she genuinely doesn't seem out to harm them. In fact, she doesn't even seem to fully comprehend that forcing them here like this is really wrong...] Was there something you wanted from me?

[in4apounding]

Ah- no, just making sure you're settling in okay. And I like it here, in the greenhouse.

[mightdoriya]

I'm okay. [As okay as one can be, as a virtually kidnapped person.] I like it in here, too. It's nice being...as close to outside as we can get right now, after all.

[in4apounding]

It's very colorful here! I'm looking forward to getting to see the actual outdoors after all this too, hopefully.

[She looks over the expanse of grasses and carefully arranged flowerbeds.]

And I am glad you're doing well. Like I said before, please don't hesitate to come to me if you need anything or have any questions.

[mightdoriya]

Hopefully? [He looks aside at Penny, his brows furrowing.] What makes you say it like that?

[in4apounding]

Oh, just that I'm not certain what the Researchers plans will be, after this. He might need me to stay here longer.

[mightdoriya]

Oh, right...it's because you work for him I guess, right?

[in4apounding]

That's what I was built for, yes. It's my purpose.

[mightdoriya]

Do you like what you do then, Penny-san?

[in4apounding]

..Yes?

[You hesitated there, P.]

I mean- this IS going to help people. In the long run. I believe that. I guess I just- wasn't expecting some of you to take it as hard as you have.

...Have you ever questioned being a Hero, at all?

[mightdoriya]

[Izuku isn't expecting the question to be turned back towards him, and it's enough to make him go quiet for a moment.] I...haven't questioned wanting to be a Hero, no. But I have questioned what it means to be one.

[in4apounding]

Oh? What did you decide it means? Besides- stopping villains and helping people, I guess.

[mightdoriya]

[Again, he's quiet for a moment.] Helping people and stopping villains is important...some would say the most important thing that heroes do. But heroes have a responsibility too to ensure that the example they're setting for everyone is suitable. We have the power to inspire both a feeling of safety and fear. Our existence is what protects the world from turning to chaos, which it has done in the past. Being a hero means to put others first. To do everything you can to protect and preserve the peace.
