It was currently a sunny day at Height's Alliance, with only the sky being partly covered by white clouds. Sundays were meant to be day offs for the students, and for two particular students, they had decided to just spend the day outside talking like good friends they were. Sitting on the bleachers of the baseball field where they played the Hero League Baseball game a couple months back, they watched as some of their classmates were out on the field, conversing with one another.
"You know," Sero says to his friend Kaminari as he held a can of soda in his hand. "I always wanted to play baseball. Like, actual baseball. Not like the game we played between Gang Orca and Shishido. Like legit, no Quirk baseball."
"Really?" Kaminari asks, eating a sandwich next to him.
"Hm-mm." Sero confirms with a hum, taking a sip of his soda.
The two looked at the field to see Sato, Iida, and Ojiro talking to one another. Right at that moment, Uraraka suddenly showed up behind the two boys with a warm smile on her face. "Hey, guys." she greets the two. "What're you talking about?"
"We're talking about baseball." Sero answers as the three friends on the fields began doing various shenanigans. "You know, making home runs," Sato at that moment struck a baseball with his bat, performing a home run. "stealing third base, all that stuff." Down below, the literal third base was being stolen by presumably Hagakure as it was just floating in the air, going unnoticed by anyone.
"You think I could join in on a team?" Kaminari asks his friend.
"Oh, sure! Sure! Totally!" Sero confirms, taking a sip from his soda. "Which team? Orcas or Lionels?"
"I was Orcas before so I'll be Lionels."
"I heard they already have a team but maybe you could join in?" Uraraka guesses, scratching her chin.
"Well, it was a hypothetical. Tell me the names of the players on the team just so I could know who's who." Kaminari asks Sero.
"You know," Sero suddenly begins. "nowadays they give ball players veeeeery peculiar names."
"Funny names?" Kaminari asks with a raised brow.
"Yeah! Yeah! Nicknames, nicknames." Sero confirms. "Now, on the Lionels team we've got, uh, 'Who's' on first," He pointed to Sato whom was scratching his cheek. "'What's' on second," Iida was shown with his glasses upside down for some reason. "'I don't know' is on third." Ojiro was shown spinning a baseball on the tip of his tail.
Kaminari shot Sero a confused expression in response. "Uh, tha- that's what I wanna find out. I wanna know the names of the guys on the Lionels team."
It was Sero's turn to become confused. "Uh- Wha- I- I'm telling you! 'Who's' on first," Sato picked his nose. "'What's' on second," Iida was shown sitting on a chair drinking a cup of tea. "'I don't know' is on third." Ojiro was reading a magazine about All Might.
"You know the guys' names?" Kaminari asks him.
"Yeah." Sero confirms.
"Well then, who's playing first?"
"Yeah." Sero took a sip from his soda.
Kaminari just gawked at his friend in response. "No, I- I mean- I mean the guy's name on first base?"
"Who."
"The guy playing first base."
"Who!"
"The guy on first base!" Kaminari shouts, pointing to first base where Sato was shown lifting weights.
"Who is on first!"
"Why are you asking me for?!"
Uraraka, having long been forgotten by the two boys, just stared at the two with confused expression, feeling awkward that she was just standing there not saying anything at the moment as the two boys began to bicker.
"I- I'm not asking you. I'm telling you! Who's on first!" Sero points to Sero, currently taking a selfie with the other two boys.
Kaminari's patience was now wearing thin as he was just now angrily looking at Sero with an annoyed expression on his face. "I'm asking you: Who's. On. First?!"
"That's the man's name." Sero confirms, gesturing his head to Sato.
"That's who's name?"
"Yeah." Sero replies with a smile, crushing his empty can of soda on his head.
Kaminari just studiedly stared at Sero, not even knowing how to properly respond to the bafflement. "Okay, okay." he says, waving his hands. "When you pay off the first Basemen every month, who gets the money?" he asks, trying to get a straight answer from Sero.
"Every yen of it. And I mean, why not? The man's entitled to it."
"Who is?"
"Yeah."
"So who gets it?!" Kaminari shouts in bafflement, slamming his head on the bleacher.
Uraraka took this moment to just walk away, knowing she was no longer needed and that she didn't want to get in between the two boy's argument.
"Well, why shouldn't he?" Sero questions, eating Kaminari's sandwich that he forgot to eat. "Sometimes his wife comes down to collects it."
"Who's wife?" Kaminari asks, rubbing his head from confusion.
Sero finished Kaminari's sandwich and crumpled up the saran wrap and carelessly tossed it aside. "Yeah! After all, the man earns it."
"Who does?"
"Absolutely!" Sero confirms with a thumbs up.
Kaminari slammed his head on the bleacher once again. The two got off the bleachers and were now walking towards the actual field, Kaminari thinking getting closer to the field would lead to Sero giving him a straighter answer. Currently, Sato and Iida were engaged in a small game of Rock, Paper, Scissors, to which Iida won, much to Sato's dismay.
"Look," Kaminari speaks up. "all I'm trying to find out is: what's the guy's name on first base!"
"Ahhh, nonono." Sero quickly says, waving dismissive hands. "What's on second base." Sero points to Iida, whom was doing his hand chopping motion like he was scolding someone.
"I'm not asking who's on second." Kaminari angrily tells Sero.
"WHO'S ON FIRST!" Sero yells, pointing to Sato whom was punching a punching bag that came out of nowhere.
"Okay! Okay! I'm changing the topic! This is giving me a headache." Kaminari responds, rubbing his head that felt like it was gonna burst. "The Lionels have a good outfield?"
"Oh, absolutely. Absolutely." Sero confirms.
"The left fielder's name?"
"Why." Sero answers, pointing to Kirishima whom had showed up unexpectedly, joining the other three boys on the field.
Kaminari just blankly stared at Sero in utter bafflement. "I- I don't know. I just thought I'd ask." he responds in an unsure tone.
"Well, I just thought I'd tell you." Sero replies with a shoulder shrug.
"Then tell me who's playing left field." Kaminari demands as he points to the boys on the field, where Kirishima was shown making origami with Iida, Sato was eating a bunch of sweets, and Ojiro was sitting on a couch, watching television that somehow came out of nowhere.
"Who's playing first." Sero tells the blonde.
Kaminari slapped Sero out of anger in response. "STAY OUT OF THE INFIELD!" he yells at him. "The left fielder's name!" He points to Kirishima, whom was playing a game of charades with the other three boys.
"Why." Sero answers, rubbing his head.
"BECAUSE!" Kaminari yells, feeling a vein was about to burst.
"Oh, he's Center Field." Sero replies, pointing backwards to show that Tokoyami was behind him, scratching his head.
Kaminari massaged his face, having absolutely no idea what was going on at the moment. "W- Wait a minute. Wait..." he says, regaining his composure. "You got a pitcher on this team?"
"Wouldn't this be a fine team WITHOUT a pitcher?" Sero jokes, nudging Kirishima while Sato let out a loud guffaw.
"PFFT HAAA-"
"TELL ME THE PITCHER'S NAME!" Kaminari practically orders Sero, whom was trying his best not to laugh.
"Tomorrow." Sero answers, pointing to Koda whom was sitting cross legged talking to a rabbit.
Kaminari slapped his own face in response.
*3 MINUTES LATER...*
"Now," Kaminari says, having gone off on a tangent to try and figure out the player's names on the team. "when the guy at the bat bunts the ball," Sero listened intensely to his explanation. "me being a good catcher, I want to throw the guy out at first base, so I pick up the ball," Kaminari picks up the baseball. "and throw it to who?"
"Now that's the first thing you've said RIGHT!" Sero exclaims in happiness as he and the other boys began clapping proudly for Kaminari.
Kaminari just studiedly gawked at the boys in utter confusion. "I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!" he yells in absolute rage.
Sero quickly came to his friend's aide. "Don't get excited. Take it easy. Take it easy." he tells the blonde, patting his back to calm him down.
By now, all the boys were surrounding Kaminari as he yet again began an explanation, all to just get a straight answer. "I throw the ball to first base," he begins. "whoever it is grabs the ball so the guy runs to second. Who picks up the ball," Sato suddenly caught a bowling ball. "and throws it to what?" The bowling ball struck Iida and knocked him to the ground. "What throws it to I don't know?" Iida, now having a soccer ball in his hand, threw it towards Ojiro, whom sat on the ball and began wiggling on it like a cat. "I don't know throws it back to tomorrow?" Ojiro threw a tennis ball towards Koda whom caught it with his hands and began running towards home base. "A triple play?"
Sero took a moment to think about the scenario. "Yeah, it could be." Sero guesses while Koda behinds him trips and falls on top of Iida.
Kaminari decided to continue his explanation. "Another guy gets up and it's a long ball to Center." he explains. "Because?" Tokoyami was shown getting a head massage from Dark Shadow. "Why?" Kirishima waved to the boys with a happy smile. "I don't know!" Ojiro picked his nose with his tail. "And I don't care!" Kaminari yells with an insane smile, practically losing it from the confusing discussion.
Sero on the other hand was busy on his phone, not paying attention to Kaminari until he said the last part. "What was that?" he asks the blonde, taking his eyes off his phone.
"I said: I DON'T CARE!" Kaminari loudly repeats.
Sero blankly stared at his friend for a brief moment before realizing what he meant. "Oh! That's our shortstop!" Sero happily exclaims, pointing to Mineta whom was doing the Macarena.
Kaminari just angrily glared at Sero, finally at his limit before unleashing a copious amount of electricity on the field, electrocuting everyone.
"AAAAAAAAAAAA-"
