[video] Introductions are a thing you do, right?
[A rather awkward and uncomfortable looking 15 year-old boy with extremely unkempt hair comes over the video feed. He's obviously not used to things like this.]
[Namely: Being social in any capacity with people outside his class.]
Uh. H-hello, my name is M-Midoriya Izuku, U.A. Superhero High School class 1-A. Not that, um, not that anyone probably knows what that is, alternate universes and all...
[He catches himself slouching as his words drift off to almost whisper-quiet, his bashful nature getting the better of him. He quickly sits back upright, and speaks louder.]
I've just joined the Legion, and so I'd like to introduce myself. Which I...just did. Right. My, uh, my hero name is Deku, which is also my nickname back home, so feel free to call me that...if you want to, of course...
[Normally, he wouldn't be nearly this flustered, but being told you're going to face an unspeakable evil of cosmic, universe eating proportions can do that to a person.]
A-Anyway! I just want to say, I might be young and inexperienced, but I look forward to working with you all!
[Please, someone tell this child to unclench. At this rate it seems like he might pass out from awkwardness if left to his own devices.]

[She scratches her chin, feeling a little embarrassed admitting all of that, but she thinks she can relate a little to what Deku is saying.]
Well...I've not been formally trained as a soldier, no. [She'd only had hunting experience, but that didn't stop her.] But after Lord Eliwood and his knights saved my village from mountains, I joined his campaign. I've been one our group's soldiers for almost a year now.
[And she's not even the youngest one in her group, so it's not awkward to think about. She just wishes she were still there, helping.]
That's right. That's what we're going to do.
no subject
[He decides not to talk about All-Might's current semi-retirement from active hero duty after his fight with All-For-One. It was still kind of a sore-spot for the whole world at large back home, and he imagines his mentor wouldn't want him dwelling on the negative.]
The way you talk about her, she sounds as amazing as All-Might. I can see why you look up to her.
[Everyone had their own heroes to look up to, even actual Heroes.]
Ah, wow. That must be...I can't really imagine what that must be like. I mean, it sounds tough, but you also sound really competent. People our age don't really become soldiers in my world. I mean, there's trainee heroes, but that's different. But...um.
[He had no not-awkward way of saying "I think it's amazing that you're able to do that but at the same time I feel bad that you have to," so he decided to leave it, and moved on instead.]
If you don't mind me asking, who were you fighting against?
no subject
[She learned some things from her big brother and while living in the village, but she can't say she's had a proper education. She's only had her mother teacher how to read and write.]
Your All-Might sounds incredible, too! But if I could be more like Lady Louise...ah, but she'd tell me to be more like myself, of course...but I can do that while still being a bit more like her, I think.
[She feels like she's rambling, but meeting a countess! It has to be like meeting a superhero, right?]
Ah...it is tough, I won't lie, but I've met wonderful people and as long as I'm of some small service to Lord Eliwood, it's worth it. And it's the right thing to do, I think.
[She shakes her head. She doesn't mind.]
At first, we were investigating the disappearance of Marquess Elbert, Lord Eliwood's father, which brought us pursuers from a powerful force known as the Black Fang.
