“ Suggesting going into a graveyard in the middle of the night is exactly how countless horror movies start. “ - Shinso to Neito.

Prompted from here | w / @bearratic

❝ Hmm. Perhaps you're right. And, we're not exactly main characters, so there's not much chance of survival. Still, isn't it a thrilling aspect? I'm sure Class 1A wouldn't even dream of going into a graveyard at night! ❞

It wasn't one of Monoma's more brilliant ideas, but, the fact of beating 1A at, well, anything, just spurred him forward. It was like his own personal brand of coffee or adrenaline. They could handle themselves. After all, they were aspiring heroes. What kind of heroes would they be if they couldn't fight off a serial killer or a zombie?

It probably was creepy. Monoma wasn't scared of much, especially when fueled by spite and pettiness. Surely, Shinsou just didn't admit to finding this all eerie?! Someone he admired?! That was Class 1A talk! Surely, they were better than that. Braver. A hero could handle it. That's what they were, right? They might not be the main characters, but, they were still aspiring heroes. And, it would be a way for them to say they were definitely better!

Well, it was definitely one thing Monoma admired about Shinsou: even though he found the scenery eerie, he wasn't showing any ounce of fear. Perhaps it was because Monoma knew Shinsou, to a degree. Understood him. Why go looking for trouble on purpose? And, Monoma had to agree with him. They weren't main characters, and Monoma knew his place as a side character.

❝ Come now, Shinsou. That's no fun! But, perhaps you're right. We don't have that plot armor. Or, perhaps nothing will happen at all. Perhaps we'll get lucky. We're a great team, after all. I'm sure we could handle it. Buuut, I won't force you to do anything you don't want to do. And, I'm not deluded into believing I can handle a zombie or a criminal alone by myself - ❞

Full of contradictions, but it was what it was. Only fools like Class A run straight along into danger anyways solo. ❝ So, I suppose there's a change of plans. What would you like to do instead? ❞

A thrilling aspect? Searching for ghosts? Ghouls, walking skeletons maybe. Is that why Neito had practically dragged him out there in the middle of the night? “Disagree.” He mumbles into the neck of his jacket, its cold as any autumn night but the looming darkness of the cemetery brings extra chill across his face.

His purple hair moves along with the wind as he peers out across the dimly lit place. Trying to give any type of shadow reasoning to be there. “It��s just eerie.” He complains lightly. Why did he even agree to this in the first time, did he even agree or was he just spaced out on their walk. At least he wouldn’t no, genuinely couldn’t lose Monoma. His voice breaks any and all barrier between them, Shinso had started to be able to pick it out from even the largest crowd and he wasn’t sure if that was a good thing. Maybe it was because Neito knows Hitoshi doesn’t close his eyes before he sees first morning light, his never ending eye bags being proof of that, and it’s just a way to keep him company. Would he even want to do so?

The aspiring hero shakes his head. “Well, if you want to bring your status up to main character. Why not go first?” He says, gesturing his arms and nodding his head towards the rusty old gate, the start of the buried. He was going to keep both indigo eyes on the blonde, maybe only slightly wrap his cloth around the other so he doesn’t trail too far away in another one of his wild frenzies. “Don’t wander too far, you can’t one-up 1A if you’re dead…”
