Rin knew Akihabara, but Jeanne did not. As RJ, they were going to experience it the nightlife together. Jokai had an idea that maybe her and Selena could meet the pros on a different turf- somewhere more fun. He knew of a nightclub in Akihabara that was perfect for both young and old people to hang out at. Jokai managed to swing a deal with the owner to let them and their guests in for free, which was pretty cool of him. RJ could finally get to meet the pros that everyone kept talking about. RJ straightened out the blue bow tie of her clothing consisting of red blazer and blue skirt that sparkle in the starry night. She had a white dress shirt underneath with a white dress shirt and blue dress vest underneath. She had a pair of high heels- one blue and one red- both sparkling in the light. And if all that didn't make her stand out, her cerise skin tone would. She looked like a superstar. She felt like a superstar. And this was going to be a good night for both her and her daughter. "Listen, Selena," RJ said as they walked down the red carpet leading into the club. "Don't think of me as your mother. To me, and where we are from, you are an adult doing things and experiencing life. And tonight, I don't want you to think about work or none that other stuff. Just have fun, dear, and get to know people." It was important she told her daughter this, although she told her for the past year. She just wanted Selena to experience life without being so... military. In fact, Selena was the one who chose military school when she was just 14. What kid wanted that? But she understood her daughter's goal, and tonight she wanted her to have fun and not be so stiff. As they walked into the club, the music was playing smooth jazz mixed with a bit club hop. The bartenders fixed drinks and the patreons of club was dancing on the floor, smiles on the faces of those who were enjoying their night. Their was an atmosphere that was inviting, wanting people to have a good time. The bouncer immediately recognized the two. "Miss Haymaker," he said with a deep voice. "So glad you could make it. We have the VIP section set up for you and your guests." He pointed up to the glass booth and a staircase leading to it. "A personal bartender will be there and you guys can come down and dance if you like. I will let your guests know where to go. Enjoy your night ladies."As the bouncer left, RJ walked up to the booth with her daughter. She gave a whistle of being impressed. Their red velvet couches lined with gold was very clean and could seat up to 10 people. It surrounded a glass table with champagne glasses and champagne in ice sitting in the middle of it. The wall was adorned with crystals and diamonds as they sparkled from the color lights from above. On the other side of the room, there was a bartender and behind lined the walls with different drinks.
"Well, I know Jokai said he would treat us well, I didn't expect this. This definitely got some New York style to it." She sat down, taking it all in. She poured herself some champagne and let the music take her to relaxation. Good thing she sent out virtual invitations too everyone in the chat and told the bouncer what to look for. They would also have to provide a password to him which was the word "Peace". Otherwise, she would never know who was who when they came up to the booth. Tonight was going to be a good night. |

So here was Selena. In sparkling purple dress with no sleeves and purple heels. At a nightclub. Getting ready to meet the pros. Her life couldn't have been more turned upside-down. First meeting the Informant. And now this. Being in Japan already made her feel like an outsider to a strange land, although she was part Japanese herself. The whole nightlife style was definitely different than her military academy days in New York. Heck, when was the last time she went out to have fun? She couldn't remember. Even from a young age, she was more of a solider than a kid.
"I know, Mom," Selena said rolling her eyes at her mom's "have fun" lecture. "I will try to have some fun." Her mom and she were definitely different. Where her mom was more fun and easy-going, she was stiffer and by-the-rules. Where her mother was wild and straightforward, she was more recluse and disciplined. But she loved her mother and she appreciated everything she did for her. Wait until the pros find out what she was though. They were going in for a shock.
After talking with the bouncer inside, the two sat in the VIP section, waiting for the pros to come in. Selena was nervous, to say the least. She was in a VIP section of a nightclub getting ready to meet the top pros of Japan. And for her uncle to set all this up for them... How the hell did he pull it off? Now she knew where Desmoshi got his tricks from. Selena stood in front of the window and watch the club-goers dance on the dancefloor below waiting to see who would be the first to come in. She took off her hair band and let her blonde hair flow. Tonight, she was going to be herself and try to have fun.

Hinata arrived at the party with an admittedly more casual flair compared to the others- probably. Hinata dressed to the high-nine for his standards- but still casual by most high-end social gatherings. He was wearing a simple black suit and pants with a green vest underneath and a black suit tie. And with his face being as it is- it looks like he just came back from his funeral. Hinata was always up for a night of fun and drinking-especially with some co-workers and friends.
Hinata arrived at the bouncer who gave him a steely look before Hinata shot him his infamous smirk and wink- which the man gave him an unsettled expression and said he could pass, always works like a charm. Nobody wants to be hit on by a walking corpse looking, guy. Also, the invitation probably helped as well.
Hinata arrived at the VIP area and saw a pair of women-Hinata waved at the two women-and he gave them a casual greeting of "Yo," Hinata as he took a seat near the pair and gave them a three-finger salute and the ol' grin and wink. "Unity and Tsukiyomi, I take it?" Hinata greeted casually. "I am Zombie King- or right now known as Hinata Kitsu." Hinata greeted the pair with a casual smile. Ever since he started teaching at U.A., his mood has been improving bit by bit even if the kids can be such an annoying pain in the ass. But kids be like that sometimes.

It was no secret that hero work was not easy. Anyone who claimed it was were either lying or overly optimistic to the point of delusion. Not that that was enough to keep Tony down for long. Even with planning lessons for his class on top of the patrols and everything else he needed to do, Tony was handling the stress quite well. Still, he needed to relax every now and then. It was important to not let the stress of the job overwhelm him. So upon learning of a party that was open to all pro-heroes, there would naturally be no way that he would say no. There was more to wanting to attend the party than just having a fun time, however. Being the sociable guy that he was, Tony was always eager to meet up with his fellow peacekeepers. Both the new faces and the ones he was already familiar with. Getting to know others was never a bad thing. After all, heroes performed better when working together, or at least cooperating and getting along. That, and who would say no to more amigos? Certainly not Tony! And so Tony appeared at the nightclub's entrance, dressed in a more casual outfit while keeping his long and fabulous hair tied back. Not something Tony usually liked doing, but he figured it would be fine this time. After showing the bouncer both a hearty smile and his invitation, Tony was let inside, where he would look over and see the heroes. Nobody that he knew personally, but perhaps tonight could change that. He would then start walking over to where they were, coming in just in time to hear his fellow teacher introduce himself. "Hola, amigos." Tony took his seat. "I'm the pro-hero Wildheart, but please, call me Tony. Always a pleasure to meet my fellow heroes. Nice to get acquainted with you all." He looked forward to having a nice and relaxing time. WC 325 |

Perry wasn't quite sure what to make of all this in his surroundings. Human clubs were strange to say the least and he wasn't sure how to feel about the music playing. It wasn't really what he preferred when it came to some tasty tunes. But of course the smell of alcohol tended to be nice and relaxing and he always was a little happier and more willing to work into a strange scene if there was a tasty drink here and there to calm the spirits and body.
He fixed his tie as he moved his way over to the growing crowd. Pro's, heroes, enjoying themselves and meeting some of the newer of their blood and rank. Perry's fine suit was recently cleaned and all the wrinkles cared for. His tie straightened and a cigar held securely in his lips as he approached. A small sniffer wiggling upward and frazzled whiskers lightly shaking as well as he sniffed the sky seeing what scents were new and what others he didn't recognize as he made his way over more proper on the pitter patter of his little fuzzy feet.
"Pleasure to meet you! Name's Perry P. Possum, PawMight if you want the hero name. I know some don't share their real names but I'm not exactly hard to recognize in or out of costume so pleasure to meet you." He said making himself known and offer a small tiny hand for a handshake to the new hero host and her sidekick moments after if accepted. "That smells sweet, Mind if I have some?" He'd ask thirsty for some of the champagne that had hit his sniffer when it had gotten close. He found himself more thirsty the more he smelled after getting close up to the other heroes nearby.

RJ smiled widened as few of hers and Selena's guests arrived. She poured herself a glass of champagne, letting the smooth liquid put her in a calm state. She was nervous. They were nervous. Japan's best meeting the rookies. But she was surprised that some of them actually looked nice and normal in their own unique way- as far as quirks go. For all the talk about how serious and stiff heroes were in Japan, these guys seemed pretty cool. 'Guess what they said back home is a bunch of baloney,' Jeanee though over to Rin. 'Told you,' Rin mentally said with a smile. 'Even heroes have fun once in a while. I'm just wondering how they will take our surprise.'RJ smiled mentally at the two, her two schemes that made her whole. She wondered how the rest of them would take to her being... different. Speaking of different... was that a zombie walking into the VIP? Wait, that must be Zombie King. She heard about how cool he was from Desmoshi, and he did seem like a nice guy as he greeted her and Selena. "Yes, I am Unity. But you can call me RJ. RJ Haymaker to be exact," RJ said loud enough as the other two pros entered in. "And this is my daughter, Selena, also known as Tsukiyomi. We are glad that you guys could make it out tonight."The pro, Wildheart, also known as Tony, introduced himself to the two. "The pleasure is all mine, Tony-sama. Thank you for joining us." Tony was a very well-built man with long, flowing purple hair. Judging from how he carried himself and dressed, he seemed like the passionate, playboy type. "Planning on snagging a few women tonight I see," RJ teased with a smile. And their was Perry P. Possum, also known as Paw Might. He really was a possum. RJ thought that Desmoshi was joking. But now she had seen it all. "You are a possum," RJ said blatantly. Then she gave a smile as he shook his hand, or paw in this case. "That's pretty cool. I finally get the man, the myth, the legend. I heard you make a mean chili. And as for the champagne, help yourself." She went back to her seat and sat cross-legged. "I understand not sharing real names," RJ continued as she thought back to what the Witch Doctor had said in chat. "But I think it is important for all of us-"She was interrupted by the bartender, who yelled, "Hey. Who let a filthy possum and a monster in here? Get them out of here! We don't allow your kind." RJ was about to go handle him when her daughter. "Let me go talk to him," Selena said politely. As Selena walked over to the bar, RJ got a text on her phone. It was from Desmoshi, saying that he was sending one more guest his way. This should be fun, she thought with a smile.

Selena couldn't believe how many different pros there was. Zombie King. Wildheart. Even Paw Might. And they were here to just have a good time, like normal people. In a way, it kind of made her feel out of place. She was just a sidekick for the Informant compared to all these great heroes. Where in New York, you didn't have heroes. They didn't take too kindly to quirkers or celebrate the ones as heroes. Still, these guys were legends compared to her and she wonders if she had what it took to be a part of that circle. But her mother insisted that she put herself out there- get to know people and make a name for herself.
After introductions and handshakes, RJ was about to talk more on the issues and understandings of a hero's privacy when the bartender rudely interrupted. He insulted both Hinata and Perry, telling them to leave the establishment. But there was one thing he said that really got under Selena's skin. We don't allow your kind. Selena dealt with that in New York, being told by some of her military cadets that she was only something and wanted because of her quirk. And this pissed her off a bit.
Her mother looked clearly prepared to handle it, but Selena knew her too well. The end result would have been the guy's body being slammed through the bar at which he served. The last thing her mother was to lose her license. "Let me go talk to him," Selena said politely and walked over to the bar. She sat at the bar and looked at the bartender in the eyes, her expression calming but yet intimidating. Unbeknownst to him she had done her homework before coming here.
"Now, let's get a few things straight," Selena said quietly where the rest of the group couldn't hear her. "I know everything about your bar. The imported liquor that you did not get proper consent for. The DJ who is using his quirk at the moment to play the music. Tax evasion. And most importantly," Selena leaning in close to the guy, "your liquor license that you failed to update for the past ten years. Now, if you don't want those things to come to light, I suggest you apologize and be nice to our guests. Or the Tokyo Police will have fun shutting down your establishment. And you definitely don't want my uncle to hear about that. Got it?"
The bartender was sweating at this point nodding his head to what Selena said. "My apologies to all of you," he said weakly to the group. "Drinks are on the house. And any other guests that come get free drinks as well. My apologies Miss Haymaker." The bartender poured her water and handed it to Selena, knowing that she was too young to drink. "Better," she said with a smile. She walked back over to the group and took her seat. "All good. You can continue. And free drinks for everyone in the VIP section," she said with a polite smile, sipping her water.
RJ smiled at her daughter. She raised her well. There were some laws that were not worth enforcing unless it needed to be and Selena was all about the law. But she also understood that tonight was a night of good times. No need to ruin it by shutting down a club. Selena would talk to the bartender after everyone had left to help him get up to code.
"As I was saying," RJ continued. "I understand the need for heroes and their privacy. But I believe it is important that we get to know each other and help one another." She looked at the group. "So why did you guys become heroes if you don't mind me asking?" she asked, trying to start the conversation.

Hinata smiles casually at the two woman-Mother and daughter-how nice- Hinata briefly wondered if he will ever have a child to call his own who would want to follow his footsteps. Hah-he doubts that, to be honest. But it's still a nice thought to think even if it will never happen. Hinata doubts anybody would seriously want to have such a relationship with him. Hinata has accepted that a long time ago. But he also thought nobody would be into him in a different manner, but he was wrong. So maybe he should keep that door opened just in case.
Hinata gave the women a three-finger salute as he looks them over. "Nice to meet you two, the pleasure's mine." Hinata said as he thought of the nicknames-Haymaker three and four. "You both seem cool-I'm excited to see you guys out on the field soon." Hinata says with a lop-sided grin and takes a seat and made himself comfy as he watches the other arrive one by one. The first to arrive was Tony, which Hinata greeted him with a loud, "Yo-Tony-My First year teacher, bro!" Hinata greeted as he downed a bottle of beer, he didn't quite remember how it got here.
Hinata saw the familiar Possom, and Hinata says, "Perry, my possum, yo-" Hinata says as he downed another bottle of beer, and he was already starting to feel warm. Hinata was known as a remarkable lightweight, so he was already starting to get tipsy. Hinata's green skin was already getting more flushed and warm.
Hinata was all smiles and giddy now that the booze was flowing through his veins. So when Unity asked for her questions of why they became pro-heroes, Hinata let out a small giggle as he spoke about his past. "Sooo-yeah-RJ I became a Pro-hero because it was either become a pro-hero or be locked up as a biohazard for the rest of my life~" Hinata says as he downed another beer.
Hinata let out a long sigh and smiles brightly- "But, to be honest, it's probably the best thing that happened to me- I became a teacher to a bunch of gremlins who I would die for-got some good friends- and even a person to---" Hinata took another gulp of his beer. And let out another sigh and a content smile. "So yeah despite the shitty start I enjoyed the fact I'm a pro-hero-and hey I got to meet you all-" Hinata says while he started feeling tipsier and tipsier.

Perry scowled if not growling as well at the sudden reaction from one of the Bar tenders. Perry giving a scowl with eyes that could pierce the heavens at first about to let the daring person have it and then some. But he allowed R.J. and her ward to handle things given how they spoke. While he found himself still annoyed as a small pink fuzzy foot taped the ground he didn't want to ruin the outing with one of his outbursts after all. Besides these two seemed quite skill at handling the situation alone so once they were given and alcohol was offered he allowed it to roll down his back and become quickly forgotten for now. Seemingly calmed if not lightly agitated with a rough patch of fur showing above his neck line of his suit collar.
"Ooooh, Quite a selection." He'd say worming his way to the little bar given all that had been offered the little fuzzy hero curious on the selection they might have had at their disposal. He always liked trying human alcohols after all to get ideas for his own brews as well as get some tasty buzzes going. The champagne had been quite tasty too as well. To be honest he briefly seemed to fade off mixing a few drinks curious to try some mixes and taking up the mantle as their personal temporary bartender as well pleased with himself as he seemed to be suddenly having a little fun as his agitation and anger was slowly forgotten and moved passed now that he had something else to keep most his attention on. As long as no one else tried to get antsy given who and what he was or dared to get a broom after him he seemed to be settling again and pleased as he was at first as well.

"¿Cómo estás? Are your students giving you any trouble?" It was a shame that Tony did not speak with Hinata more often. He was curious about how the students in 1-B were like. Not that his own 1-A students were perfect angels by any means, but they were at least reasonable enough. Tony sometimes wondered if there were any rivalries going on between the two classes. It was humorous to think about, as long as the kids didn't try and take things too far if there were such a thing happening. Not that Tony believed he would ever have to worry about such things escalating to a level of worry, but you never know.
Tony grinned at RJ's remark. While it was not necessarily his intention to come here to pick up a lucky lady (or dude, Tony really wasn't picky in that regard), he could not deny that he would totally be okay with such an outcome. "Well you're not necessarily wrong there." After all, was it not the point of this little get together to have a fun time? Not like Tony was like this all the time. He knew when to be serious and when to cut loose and have a chill time.
Pretty soon, another hero would come in and join the group. And this one was the possum hero Paw Might. "Good to have you here, señor." Though Tony had not yet met the possum personally, he had heard much about him. It was always a pleasure to meet more heroes, and it did not matter to Tony what species they were. A hero is a hero, plain and simple. All were praise-worthy and people Tony wanted to get to know better.
But it seemed like someone didn't agree. Tony rolled his eyes as he heard what that bartender said. Such a killjoy. The man considered going over there and giving the bartender a piece of his mind. But it ultimately proved to not be necessary. Selena beat him to the punch. Though Tony of course could not hear what she was saying, it was not too difficult to guess that it was something that scared the crap out of the bartender. The guy's attitude went a complete 180. And hey, free drinks! That was always nice. Tony smiled, nodding approvingly.
But back to before the rude interruption, it was time to chill and chat. And for the first topic, RJ asked the group why they became heroes. After listening to Hinata's answer, Tony gave his. "I'm in a similar boat. I became a pro-hero because the alternative was prison, and I can't do much to help people from inside a cell." Ah, the old days of being a vigilante. Not that he really missed those days. Not even a bit. "But yeah, I'm glad I became a hero and teacher. Protecting people, being able to pass on my knowledge to the next generation of heroes, locking up criminals after a satisfying beatdown, I really love the job and what I can do for people because of it."
Tony had not grabbed a drink yet, simply because he could not yet decide what to have. Red wine, white wine, beer, champagne, whatever else. Hell, even water would work. Really, Tony did not care, as long as he and everyone else here had a great time.

RJ listened to the heroes present, each providing a reason for why they became a hero. Their situation sounded much like how New York treated vigilantes there. Except for the fact they didn't give them a chance to be heroes. More like jail time, period. "Believe it or not, I understand what it is like to be in that position," RJ said, taking another sip of her champagne. "In New York, I have kicked off the police force and disbarred from the bench for being a vigilante. Their first option was to jail me. But then Jokai, my brother and brother-in-law came to me with an offer. The chance to be a pro here in Japan."
RJ checked her watch. It was almost time for her surprise. Jokai had set up something for her first introduction to the people of Japan. A way of promoting herself. But the real reason she was going through with it- she just wanted to have fun tonight. She wanted everyone here to just have fun. But mostly, she wanted her daughter to have fun. She looked over at Selena, who was sitting at the bar drinking water. It seems Perry had taken over the bar for tonight. "You should give the Scotch a try, Perry," RJ had suggested to the possum hero. "It goes down real smooth."

Selena sat at the bar with a smile on her face, looking at the other adults conversing with one another. Hinata seemed to be getting into the swing of things; she could tell the way he grinned and spoke. Well, looks someone was enjoying themselves- a little too much. Antonio decided to head out to the dance floor and meet with some people. Perry came behind the bar and exploring the different drinks that the bar had to offer. It was nice to see people relax and not be so serious about the hero's work. Although not all the pros had come, it was nice to see this moment.
It was a break from what they had been through. New York was not the kindest place for them. And listening to everyone else's story reminded her of that. The quirk people were having a rough time there. People were being arrested left to right, even if they were doing the right thing. They even fired her mothers from their jobs for being Unity and even attempted to dismiss some of their cases. Her mothers just shrugged it off, saying it happens. Which made Selena wonder- what else were the two hiding from her?
