Mundane Skill: Cooking.

So Hiro is a super genius with an Aunt he loves, a cafe that he lives above, and an absolute hatred of boredom. So he totally knows how to cook. He's perfectly fine eating junk and prefers it, and letting him INVENT recipes is a mistake, but he knows how to make the cafe's menu effectively. So he knows cafe food and various baked goods.


Significant Positive: Robert Callaghan.

Break Down
-Tadashi regularly works later.
-His professor is visiting.
-...there is a college professor here and I am sucking on a lollipop.
-Nope, not a kid, not here.
-Tadashi had told him that Hiro is a bot fighter.
-Professor's daughter wanted to be one too.
-Unsure, but....if Tadashi likes him that much, he can probably be trusted with Megabot.
-Oh, he can recognize magnetic bearing servos?
-It's pretty sick, right? I could totally show you how to put them together.
-Arrogance forever.
-Tadashi helpfully pointing out the professor invented them.
-....
-HOLY SHIT.
-Oh my god oh my god oh my god!!!!!!!
-PROFESSOR IS ROBERT CALLAGHAN!!!!!!!
-He is basically the father of robitics.
-Just AWESTRUCK, this man is a genius, an inspiration!
-Callaghan asks if he thought of applying, even says his age wouldn't be an issue.
-Tadashi says he's serious about the botfighting.
-W-well, only....you know, kind of serious.
-With his bot, winning comes easy.
-It does and for the first time it feels like a waste.
-Here he is, with his awesome robot, using it for back alley street fighting, and with a man who would KNOW how much of a waste it is, and a man he personally respects and fffffff
-Callaghan talks about how they push robotics, how the students go on to shape the future.
-Wishes him luck with the fights.
-Riding on down the elevator.
-Walking to the front door.
-And his mind is just racing.
-He could be better.
-He could do so much better.
-It's not another school to sit in and be told facts to memorize, but pushed to go beyond what's already known.
-With a man whose done it himself.
-With so many students here who are experimenting with new things.
-With Tadashi and his nursebot that would help so many people.
-It's TRUE.
-He could learn.
-He could grow.
-He could help shape the future.
-(He could shape the future with his brother.)
-He stops on the steps of the school, looking back, and for the first time in a long while, he feels like he could actually be challenged.
-Tadashi is talking about a bot fight and god, he has no times for botfights!
-He has to go to this school.
-He's going to lose his mind if he doesn't go to this nerd school.
-HE COULD FINALLY USE HIS HEAD FOR SOMETHING WORTHWHILE.
-How does he get in?
-Tadashi just looking so pleased with himself and yeah, okay, he totally got manipulated by Tadashi and Professor Callaghan and DON'T EVEN CARE, HELP ME GET INTO THIS SCHOOL.

Meaning
Robert Callaghan is SUPER AWESOME COOL FATHER OF ROBOTICS DUDE.

Also a professor Tadashi is close enough to recruit into manipulating Hiro, which is also kind of cool.

But that certainly explains why he went from 'FUCK COLLEGE' to 'YES TO ALL THE COLLEGE PLEASE.' Which does bring up the question for why he decided to....not go???? For some reason??? It's weird?
