[ At least one of them will be enjoying it :|

All right. They're working toward the heart of his request. Deep breath, V. You can do this. ]

I -

[ And then, all at once, it comes out in a rush: ]

I need you to teach me combat magic! Soon. If possible.

[ His eyes are wide as he stares into the communicator, and he sounds just mildly desperate. ]

[searchingforlove]

[And the other brow joins the first.]

Why do you need to do this? That's very strong phrasing.

[whitehairedprettyboy]

[ Oh, he's feeling the teacherly judgement now. But having already made this hole, he's got no choice but to dig himself deeper. So he presses on. ]

I may have - through very little fault of my own - angered someone with superpowers. And... possibly also challenged him to a fight next we meet.

[ Hell, maybe Manuela will kill him for this and save Bakugou the trouble. ]

Valmont dear, if you want to save yourself from the humiliation of being put into a class with other students you will have to be very honest with me about what happened.

[It shows that how much she's actually willing to help him if she's bothering to warn him at all honestly.]

[whitehairedprettyboy]

All right, all right, I was getting to that -

[ He's not good at being very honest, okay. He's not even good at being a little bit honest. But for Manuela, and for the sake of sparing himself further future embarrassment, he'll try. ]

Some weeks ago I entered into an argument with a young man. The confrontation become physical, at which point I learned that he had the power to cause explosions - a fact which he had, mind you, withheld from me in quite an unsportsmanlike manner.

[ He cringes at the memory of that altercation. His poor singed hair. ]

Then, I managed to escape, but today the brat - er, the young man put out a rather inflammatory discussion on the network, and... well, one thing led to another. To put it simply, I... I challenged him. To a rematch. Yes, I know, it was stupid, berate me all you like, just help me - !

[Quietly, she listens to what he has to say making sure that he's giving her the full story. As it turns out, he really is in a spot of trouble. And what really sells her is the fact that he fully admits he was an idiot.

And really asking for help.]

Very well. I will train you myself. I can't promise you'll master magic quickly but I can at least train you in how to defend yourself against it for the time being. Not everyone has a gift for it but you can at least gain the skills you need to be able to keep yourself safer.

[ She agreed? She agreed! The relief on Valmont's face is palpable, maybe the most unguarded expression he's ever shown Manuela. ]

Thank you so -

[ He cuts off what sounded like it was shaping up to be a much more profuse profession of gratitude, looking annoyed with himself. ]

- er, that is. I appreciate it.

[ Ahem. He straightens his tie. ]

When shall we start...?

[searchingforlove]

Tomorrow. I want you to get a good night's rest tonight.

And do try to stay out of trouble until then please.
