Thanks. It's just the English version of my middle name, though. Nothing special. Real easy to come up with, but still foreign enough to the pirates out there that it sounds impressive. Plus if you listen to certain songs from back home, it makes me sound like I'm immortal.
You're definitely better at publicity than I am. And at English. I didn't know it means immortal.
I didn't get a chance to tell you thank you for the music at Palamedes-san's party. I wanted to ask you how it worked? My classmate has audio jacks as a Quirk and can weaponize her heartbeat, but I'm guessing a Quirk isn't the case here.
[ Is he taking notes? He may well be taking physical notes. Nerd. ]
It doesn't, really. It's just flowery stuff, you know? Kind of meant to make normal plant things sound more beautiful. Amaranth never really loses its color, even when it dies. They call it love-lies-bleeding, too.
Definitely ain't a quirk. It's just how my body does. I've got a panel full of jacks on my side and I can use myself as an amplifier. On account of being a robot and all. It's just electronics all the way down.
Well it sounds beautiful and sad and very strong. Do you like that flower then?
Do you mean robot or cyborg? Sorry if it's rude to ask. You don't have to answer. Prosthetics have come a long way in my world, but we're not there yet.
There's a couple other flowers I'm partial to. But lunar tears don't grow here yet. So amaranth it is.
I mean cyborg, but I just use robot because it's faster. Probably only a matter of time before I go full robot anyway, though. Or, uh, android. Gynoid. Whatever. You know that seam I have across my neck? That's where the human part starts.
Yep. Big city on the east coast of America called Recollé. Born in 1992, left in 2021.
I guess if you really want to get technical, though, my family's from Germany and I've been there a couple times, too. Oma still lives there and I'm the first one in my family to be born on American soil.
Oh yeah, sorry, I know like... Tokyo, Osaka, Kyoto. That's basically it. I'm a shameful excuse for an enjoyer of Japanese culture. I always kind of wondered what the smaller cities were like. I mean, I still want to go see Tokyo Tower one day, but there's more than just Tokyo in Japan, you know?
Maybe I'll stop by Musutafu if we ever end up back there.
I don't think it's impossible. I think it's hard, but I think I've made too many plans with too many people for it to be impossible. That's how it works, right? You want something hard enough to make it real?
Lots of people working toward something they want to happen and landing on what makes it possible, even among many impossible futures... A strong vision without doubt... I can see it.
[ He has. ]
I'd show you the beach. It used to be as bad as a landfill, full of trash that washed up or was dumped. As part of my workout, I cleaned the whole thing. The view's great now. People still don't know who did it.
Ha, nice. A little mystery philanthropy never hurt anybody. What's the line? True Gs move in silence like lasagna?
That line DEFINITELY only works if you know how to pronounce "lasagna" in English. Sorry if it makes absolutely no sense to you. Anyway, yeah, I would love to see what you've done with the place.
Don't know if she does. I'll ask her, and we'll see if I can bring her with. Thanks for always looking out for me, Midoriya-kun. (Don't ask about English words. You'll just go crazy.)
I would never mean disrespe Belay that, I'd never keelhaul a chance to prove my worth seaworthiness as a sea pirate and scurvy dog, crewmember of The Lonely Island under The Dread Captain Amaranth. I am always ready to hoist the sails and swab the deck and stuff.

Full title is The Dread Captain Amaranth.

There are hero names longer than that, so you're just fine. I think it sounds really cool.

At Paul-kun's party you guessed when and where I was from. Are you from America?
