Of course, Minoru had seen Damien not that long ago. Just because he won American Ninja Warrior didn’t mean he was going to rest on his laurels. He had to qualify next year just like everybody else, so it was right back to the usual training schedule.
Heck, it was one of the few places that he could go to escape people acting weird around him. In his home world, he was a reclusive celebrity (they didn’t know he didn’t live in that universe). In the Nexus, his coworkers were still wondering why he hadn’t quit and his brother was still giving him the silent treatment any time he wanted to talk about doing something with said money. Even in Ziggy’s world, he felt a little out of place, suddenly being just like all the other rock stars. Even if he never admitted it to anyone but Martyn.
But in Hunger City, they still treated him like an honorary Pup. When he was there to train, nothing else mattered.
“Hey!” Minoru waved, laughing. “A dog dressed up as a cat? That’s s good one.”
