"Um uncle Ei, do you have anything healthier. I need to stay in shape for my audition." Katsuko asked as she looked at the table full of various foods.
"Ah right I forgot about that. I'll make you a protein shake in a sec." He replied as he filled the cups with orange juice.
"Where is dad anyway?" She asked as she took a small sip of the juice.
"He is with that witch he calls a-a...a friend. He wanted to tell you something earlier but you were on that call with your friend so he decided not to interrupt you. They will both be here in a few minutes though." Kiri answered as he prepared her shake.
"Mmm... So what does miss ponytail do anyway?" She asked sarcastically which made the man laugh.
"I'm still shocked how much you and your father are alike but anyway Momo is a super model. I'm surprised you haven't heard of her." He said.
"Why would I hear of her? I don't spend my life stalking all these annoying extras. I have better things to do." She responded rudely.
"Alright little miss no need to be harsh." He said as he poured her shake into a cup.
A few minutes after, both Bakugou and Momo walked into the dining room.
"Oi brat. Now that you are off that damn phone of yours I would like to talk to you about something." Her father said as he sat down.
"As a matter of fact I would like to talk to you about something as well." She as looked Momo up and down before rolling her eyes.
"Ok go ahead." He replied.
"No I insist that you go first."
"Okay then I want to talk about Momo." He said
"And I would like to talk about my mother." She responded now looking at him in the eyes.
He looked a bit taken back but quickly covered it up.
"What about your mother?" He asked and his voice seemed to go an octave lower.

"Dad I am almost a teenager. You can't keep telling me about how a stork dropped me off at your front door. I need a mother." She said as she drank her protein shake.
Kirishima who was on the the sidelines was enjoying this especially when he saw Bakugou muttering a few curses under his breath.
"Well then I guess we are on the same topic which is why ponyta- Momo is here." He said and Katsuko had to force herself not to roll her eyes at him.
Momo then stood up and called someone into the room.
"Katsumi, this is my assistant Richardo, Richardo this is Katsumi Bakugou, Katsuki's daughter who I have been talking to you about." Momo introduced the two.
"Ah love. It's good to finally meet the face behind such kind words." The man said in a French accent.
"Ah don't tell me that you are from France?" Katsuko asked in her best French accent.
Well if she was going to sit here with these boring people she might as well get a kick out of it.
"Brat how did you know that?" Her father asked but she simply ignored him.
"Well you have a magnificent French accent." The man compliment which made her fake a giggle.
"Wee, you are not so bad yourself." Katsuko said which made Ricardo laugh.
"Did you tell her yet?" Momo whispered to Katsuki.
"I was getting to that you damn woman!" He fired.
"Tell me what?" Katsumi asked as she heard the two whispering but they ignored her.
"Darling I will see you later. I have things to do." She said before walking out with Richardo.
"First change I make in that household is to send that two faced brat to boarding school." Momo said bitterly as she and Richardo walked to her car.
"Ooh Ice queen." Richardo said which made her chuckle.
"And proud of it too babe."
A few minutes late the father daughter duo walked out of the house.
"Let's go for a ride brat." He said and the began heading off to the stables.

When they got their horses they began heading to the river side.
"Are you excited for our camping trip." He gently asked his daughter.
This was a side that only she could see on him.
"What camping trip?" She asked confused about this new information.
Katsumi hadn't told her about any camping trip.
"The camping trip that we always go on before you go back to school. DON'T TELL ME YOU FORGOT YOU BRAT!" He takes as he looked as his daughter.
"OF COURSE I DIDN'T FORGET!" she yelled back.
"What do you think about ponytail?" He suddenly asked out of the blue.
'Why is he asking? I already said I didn't like her this morning..'
She though before rolling her eyes.
"As what? As your publicist? Your friend?" She asked dumbly as if she didn't know what he meant.
"Just as a person in general."
"Well I guess she is okay... I don't know? Why are you asking me about her. She is a stranger to me." She said as she looked ahead.
"Um... Well believe it or not that woman and I are..." He was cut off as her horse sped past his.
"RACE YOU TO THE RANCH!" She yelled not looking back.
"YOU BRAT!!!"
Katsuko immediately ran into the house after she had settled her horse down. She knew that her father was not too far behind her so she needed a place to hide.
Panic was clouding her mind so she couldn't think straight.
"What are you doing?" Kiri asked as he saw her fumbling all over the place which made her jump in fright.
"AISH YOU SCARED ME... I need a place to hide from dad." She said but it was already too late as he walked into the house slightly panting.
"You damn brat. I want to know what you think of Momo as part of the family." He said and dragged her to the couch.
"Our family?"
"Ya."
"I think it's a terrific idea." She said smiling brightly but was internally crying as she thought about how she was acting.
THIS WAS NOT HER!!!
"You do?" He said a little confused.
"Yeah. It's like a dream come true. I will finally have a sibling. An older sister to play and gossip with." She said and swallowed down the cringe.
Gossip... Really?
"I think you are missing the fvcking point here." He said.
"No I am not. It's really sweet of you daddy. You are going to adopt Momo and I will finally have an older sister!" She joyfully exclaimed and in the background they could hear Kirishima dying of laughter but chose to ignore it.
"I'M NOT GOING TO ADOPT HER. I AM GOING TO MARRY HER YOU BRAT!" He yelled.
"WHAT! DAD ARE YOU INSANE?! HOW CAN YOU MARRY HER?! SHE IS YOUNG ENOUGH TO BE YOUR DAUGHTER!" She yelled which made Katsuki choke on his saliva.
"The hell? HOW OLD DO YOU THINK I AM YOU BRAT?!" He yelled back.
"Épouse-la, non non non, tu ne peux pas l'epouser!" She exclaimed which caught her father off guard again.
"Since when do you speak French?" He asked.
"I learnt it at camp." She said while tugging at her hair.
"Please... You can't marry her. It will ruin everything." She said before running to her room and locking the door.
Katsuki was about to follow her but Kiri stopped him.
"Give her some space. This is big news for her." He said as he wiped some tears off of his red face.
Bakugou sighed sadly before sitting back down.
"Do you think something happened to her at that camp? She seems different." He asked as Kiri sat beside him.
"I don't know man but I honestly think that she wants her real mother and not a stepmother." Kiri explained.
"BUT THAT'S THE PROBLEM! I haven't seen the woman in over ten years." He exclaimed feeling the heat of being an adult.

Decompose!
Dear diary. When you read stories about some people missing and returning after years of absence claiming they were living in another world, your first reaction is to scoff and dismiss a story as a tall tale, right? I know I did. All the time. Until it happened to me and I no longer did. That day was today. Some god of thunder smote me. If it were Chris Hemsworth, I wouldn't mind but it was some barbaric Hitite god that abaondned Earth some four millennia ago. Yes, what can I say? I love the seventh art. I have more hours watching movies than any other activity, including sleep. What? Do you think I'm exaggerating? Maybe I am. I'll really miss hollywood the most. And my biggest regret is that I never got to visit the holy city of cinema. I did not come to another world to be a hero even though there was hints that they hoped I'd save it. I did not come with overpowered abilities able to, dunno, leap tall castles in a single bound, faster than a speeding crossbow bolt, be more powerful than a eight-horse carriage, the bounds. No. After the asshole god that murdered me brought me to his world, he gave me some boons from his discount bin and "The Power of my Soul (tm)". Forgive my french, I hope you understand I am rather upset at dying. And he somehow decided that my power is to recycle stuff. How awesome is that? Not much at first, I must admit. At least I got all my camping stuff and equipment with me. There's no lycra in the other world. I'll make it someday, but that day is not today. So here I am. In another world, in the middle of nowhere. I'm no heroine. As the song goes, I'm your basic average girl. And I'm assumed to be here to save the world. But almost everything can stop me, because I'm not named Kim. Wish me luck, diary. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ This novel is going have the following features: slow-paced slice-of-life No GameLit / LitRPG elements. Movie references. Sandra likes the seventh art. Journal / diary style crafting (includes chemistry, engineering and metallurgy) low magic technological advancement (for Sandra, at least. She is not against sharing though) personal relations clash of perception between the modern and ancient customs. bits of tension, fighting, and plot here and there. I won't repeat myself though. Once she crafts a good batch of soap, for example, she'll just note, "I crafted soap again." Once it is estabilished how she obtains compound X, compound X2 that is obtainable from the same process will also just be mentioned. I'll try to be as realistic as I can with the crafting, chemistry, and technology. Cover: Public Domain Image by StockSnap from Pixabay. No attribution required but we do it anyway.
