So, this is an interesting place to be. Especially because I can just walk around in my baseline form without freaking anyone out here. Even if I usually keep myself limited to about half the usual size - eight feet of height is plenty intimidating on its own. Eventually went down, got my Hero card on a lark - of course it would be the same day that Saitama went down there. I ended up talking to him, told him not to feel so bad about being a B-class hero.

"You're being a hero as a hobby, right? It's cool, I'm kind of doing the same. The extra money is nice... but I can't imagine doing this as a JOB, saving the world every couple months is one thing, but what if it was every week? It'd be crazy. Plus, I'd rather watch all these guys do their thing, they're pretty neat too."

He agreed, perhaps a bit bemused. I invited him and Genos over a few times when I grilled dinner, as well, it was fairly nice to meet them.

Oh, there were fights and city-saving and so on as well of course, but I mean... Saitama was always the one that saved the day, and rarely got the recognition to go along with it. I'm not going to try to overshadow him - he's a pretty chill guy.

Though making sure that he gets a few fan letters from people other than Genos helped, I think.
