I'm one of the new meta-arrivals, Pinky! Nice to meet you all!! [ Mina spreads out her arms and winks, however, she eventually pulls down her white mask before she shakes her head a little ] Name's Mina Ashido.

Ehehe, I figured I should try using this thing. I know a bunch of us are new like I am, so I wanna meet everyone. I came from Tokyo in Japan, my world has superpowers - [ quirks. But nobody seems to be familiar with that term ] - and a superhero society and all that. I'm studying to be a Hero myself at U.A.! [ not that... anyone knows what that is ] I'm going to school here now, instead, though I don't think I will be able to pass any of those classes... [ she mutters that last part, before she grins wide again. NO MATTER! ]

I wanna help this place out, so I guess I will be joining the Guardian Alliance. Plus I dun' wanna be without money. [ she is a kid and never had a job, a normal job is also not what she wants either. So to her, it was a no-brainer]

Anyway, let's all be friends!! [ she waves one last time at the camera before the video is cut off ]

Huh, I guess that tracks. If there wasn't tech to talk to, no one would have developed the power to talk to it. Powers evolving alongside the technology makes sense, but I wonder how and why it works the way it does. I mean, how would genes know computers did or didn't exist, y'know?

Uh...sorry, I'm just kinda thinkin' out loud on that.

Anyway. Are you gonna join that guild thing? I don't think they'd really want someone like me, since I'm just nobody or whatever, but that Atomight guy seemed pretty serious about everyone joining up.

[ In fact he was pretty serious, but Peter does still have that secret identity thing to maintain so he's still gotta play this card this way. ]

[pinkxeno]

Yeah, exactly! Unless you consider the wheel "tech" but it's super weird to talk to wheels, right? [ she laughs, waving her hand ] But I'd say it's like we evolve with the world around us, kinda like that. In my world, some people think meta abilities or quirks appeared because of a virus that altered our genes.

[ a pause, mostly for herself. Mina blinks for a second ] I couldn't answer that in a test, but look at me now ehehe-- [ she sounds so proud of herself, too ]

But yeah, I'm gonna join! I wanna help people. And even if you don't have an offensive power, you can always help with defense. Tech quirks are pretty helpful with that.

[ He can't help but laugh. ]

Man, imagine some dude just sitting there having a whole conversation with a wheel. That would have to be pretty boring!

[ He listens to the rest of what she says, surprised to hear it. ]

A virus, really? That's wild. I wonder how the science behind that works. You guys have different abilities, but it started with a virus? I don't really know a lot about virology but I guess if it triggered some kind of mutation enough generations ago that must be it...I'm really just guessing, though. There's a lot about how these kind of meta abilities work that people don't seem to understand, I think. Like this confluence thing, here, how does that work to give people abilities? I have absolutely no idea!

[ But he finds it both fascinating and exciting. ]

I hadn't really thought about that defence thing. I really have no idea how to use this tech power effectively yet. Guess that's what I'm still learning.

[ He feels a little bad because he is hiding a whole power set from her here, but he's not lying about not knowing how to use the tech thing. ]

[pinkxeno]

Yeah- I don't understand very well, but in my world people couldn't just get abilities like that. It's super weird. [ plus she heard some people have magic?? What's that about, anyway? ] And who does the confluences, anyway...?

[ she finds it less fascinating mostly because she doesn't really understand it ]

And well!! if you want, we can train together! I don't know lots about tech quirks, but if it's just training it should be fine! [ mina, no. ]
