Who: Uraraka Ochako | OTA
Broadcast: Video
Action: SS Starstruck, Iskaulit
When: Today, after the fleet leaves the system


[Cue Ochako setting the communicator up and bouncing back, waving like it's some kind of peppy vlog. Cheers, everyone!]

Back to space we go! I don't know about everybody else, but I'll be glad that I don't have to keep wringing my clothes out all the time.

Anyway! That's not the point of this! While we're here, I was thinking... we've got a lot of kids with special abilities around here now, don't we? Or even just kids who wanna get stronger. The fleet is mostly safe, but sometimes things happen, and... well! Everyone benefits when we know what we're doing, right? Right!

Okay, so for everybody who doesn't know him, my teacher, Aizawa-sensei, is here! He's kind of a recluse so you probably wouldn't think it but he's really strong, and his teaching skills are top-notch! Back home, he's my homeroom teacher at the best heroics school in the world! He knows what's what. I bet he could teach anyone.

I was thinking, wouldn't it be nice to have a school here? Not just for superpowers, though I think that sort of thing is important... but I've never been out of school this long in my life. I feel like I'm getting dumber by the day. And it could be fun! We could make a classroom on the Iskaulit, we could get books and put together a real class and- oh, uniforms! We could get uniforms if we wanted!

Anyone interested!?

[Ochako starts off on the Starstruck, taking care of her various chores while she covers responses, but at some point she'll venture over to the Iskaulit, poking around some of the rooms - both existing and unclaimed - to scout out what space is free in the vicinity of the library. She's humming to herself some upbeat song, visibly and very obviously in a good mood.]

Team leadership skills are invaluable to a pro hero. Looks like there's only a handful of students, so this is a good opportunity to learn what works for you.

[a considering exhale] Uraraka, how many pro heroes can you name off the top of your head?
expellerhead: (75)

So about a dozen heroes, on the spot. [if he gave her time to study and a quiz she could probably name many more, but this'll do for an example.] To put that into perspective, your graduating year if we assume no dropouts will be over forty strong. That's over forty new heroes every year, just from our school alone.

You already know that standing out is essential; being class president and having accolades in school that show you can handle a responsibility greater than that of your peers is a huge plus. Though, granted, not essential.

I won't deny Iida is also well-suited for the role. [Hardworking, stickler for the rules, carries a lot of personal responsibility for others...kinda bossy...]

Anyway, you don't have to want the responsibility of being class president; you don't even have to like it. Just so long as you recognize why it's important to develop those skills.
