it's raining somewhere — open, competition

[arcy]

Izuku, of course, hadn't gotten far at all before people were calling after him. Izuku stops, ears twitching as he hears his name being called. Oh. Was he gonna be banned from participating or something? He hoped not -- Izuku really wanted to help. He could go and just run off in hopes of avoiding it, but -- Izuku huffs and turns back around. Couldn't hurt to check -- and, luckily, his suspicions were proven wrong when Atbash calls that she'd like to team up. He squints at the blurry form of Atbash and -- Jacob, maybe? But the strain kind of hurts his head, so he just looks at his paws till he gets closer.
"I don't mind teaming up," Izuku chirps, tail wagging. The idea really did appeal to him, though he was surprised it was gonna be three of him. His enthusiasm about it was fairly clear. While Izuku hadn't quite recovered his seamless ability to cooperate, he supposes this would still be a fairly individual event even with teams, so it was definitely a good place to start! So, glancing between them, Izuku fumbles for a few moments. He didn't have a solid plan before he dashed off, really -- he was just gonna keep going till he found somewhere to start. Nobody ever said Izuku had good plans. "I, uh -- didn't exactly have a plan before running off. Does ... anybody else?" Izuku grins sheepishly. It was like hunting, and Izuku, again, wasn't any good at that. He's not sure Jacob is either, and they might just be a hindrance on Atbash, but hopefully they could make it work.
