Rody Leaned Over In Curiosity, Trying To Peek At His Phone. He Basically Ended Up Being Shoulder To Shoulder

vsagis​:

The green-haired boy seems lost in his thoughts, but his head turns towards the server the moment the other approaches him, a polite smile plastered onto his face.

“Hi.” It’s always a good choice to start with a greeting. It shows manners, and it gives one a few precious seconds to gather his thoughts, if he so requires.

Izuku doesn’t.

“Hope you don’t mind me just picking a table on my own,” he follows as his expression changes and takes a tinge of embarrassment. “I wasn’t sure if I should wait,” (Read: it doesn’t look like that kind of place.) “And you seemed busy, so…” He finishes with a small shrug. “But a recommendation would be helpful.” A meal is one of the last, if not the last, motivations that could bring him here, but Izuku isn’t that thoughtless; asking questions from the moment he stepped inside won’t get him anywhere. Well, maybe it would — outside, kicked out by the server, and that’s an eventuality he can’t afford here.

Seeing the other smile was a good start, but Rody couldn't tell if it was genuine or not. He'll find out eventually. "Don't mind at all; it's what people usually do here."

Taking a quick glance behind him to look at the rest of the establishment, he took note of what was being ordered the most as of tonight. As if he didn't already know, having served all that stuff himself. "Burgers are always a safe bet." Rody grinned, facing back to the stranger. "Or just some fries if you're not that hungry." There was a thoughtful hum, Rody's suspicion and curiosity slipping into it.

"But would you really come to this area just for some greasy fries? Doesn't seem worth the trip."

Rody, smirking: So, when are you going to go out with me?

Midoriya, smiling: I don't know, when are you going to ask me out?

Rody: Uh....

[ Later ]

Bakugou: SO YOU JUST RAN AWAY?!?

Rody: I WASN'T EXPECTING HIM TO FLIRT BACK.

  “D-don’t you go starting with your suave street charms or anything Rody!” And now the great hero Deku is just digging his hole deeper as he continues to talk.

"Ha! Suave street charms? But that's one of my best qualities!" Good to know that Izuku considered him suave, though.

Katsuki’s stance relaxed further when Noodle Hair confirmed that the kid was okay. One less thing to worry about…

Honestly, he barely remembered shit from his stay in that hospital. He was too  busy bitching about the pain he felt from his injuries to pay much attention to anything else. He glanced between the two siblings and gave a nod. “I kinda figured it out by the hair,” he bluntly admitted. 

He would have said something else but was quickly interrupted by Burnin’ and a police car arriving on the scene. 

“Bakugou!” The hero was wrapping capture tape around the villain and helping the police lift the man up. She grinned over at him. “Nice job!” 

“Yeah, yeah!” He huffed. Though, even with his nonchalant reaction, there was a hint of a smirk on his lips. 

“You can go back to the Agency if you want!” she added before helping to haul off the robber. 

Katsuki just shrugged. Not like his shift was likely gonna get much more exiting than that. “Alright.” 

With that taken care of, he refocused his attention back on Rody. He raised an eyebrow. “So why the hell are you here?” The question was still burning in the back of his head. “Deku didn’t tell me shit about you visiting.” 

The hair? Ah, the noodle hair. Of course. How could he forget?

Rody stepped back with his siblings when the pro and police arrived. While Bakugou interacted with them, Rody continued to comfort Roro and Lala, giving them comforting head rubs and words of reassurance. It also allowed him a moment to properly breathe.

He almost wanted to tell the other off for swearing in front of the kids, but he would let it slide this time.

"Oh, Deku doesn’t know I’m here, actually.” There was a sheepish rub to the back of his head, messing up his ponytail a bit as his other arm adjusted its hold around Roro. “It’s kind of a surprise? We wanted to spend a day or two by ourselves to explore the city before meeting up with Deku.” Knowing how he was, if Deku knew he and his siblings were coming, he would have wanted to pitch in and help- but Rody wanted to do this on his own. Additionally, Deku was probably busy with school, or even with patrols like Bakugou was. Rody didn’t want to overwhelm the hero by showing up in the middle of the week. He could wait till the weekend.

Oh.

“Don’t tell him that. Or that you saw me-” Unless the three of them went to see him today instead. Which wasn’t always a bad idea, it just wasn’t the original plan.

He couldn’t help but laugh at how offended the hero looked. It was the truth though! Rody was way more experienced with lying and being believable. And they were Deku’s friends! How could Izuku possibly lie right to their faces? It was way easier for Rody in this situation.

“Wha-” Out of instinct, Rody leaned back against the wall of the closet, but was unable to escape the hero’s grasp. He could feel his shirt collar being pulled down and it caused the hidden Pino to squawk. “What are you doing Deku- Hey- Hey!” Rody’s hands were gripping onto Deku’s shoulders, but even with all his objections, he didn’t shove the other back at all.

  Honestly Izuku was a bit offended with the implication that Rody was making, sure he may not be a delinquent like Rody but even he was capable of lying! Ok he wants to make this so called lie believable then he is going to make it believable by not making it into a lie.   The greenette was on Rody in a matter of seconds, grabbing him by his jaw with one hand to turn his head to the side while his other hand tugged on the collar of Rody’s shirt enough to expose his neck. Leaning in to leave a noticeable mark on the brunette’s neck even after he would straighten himself out. 

ooc - Just added a mp3 player to my blog. Been meaning to add it for a while but kept forgetting.

Meeting with Deku’s friends again was... interesting. Todoroki he could speak to just fine. Bakugou on the other hand... He wondered if the blonde would ever warm up to him. Oh well.

He thought Deku’s idea of the mall was perfect. Rody would be able to see multiple stores all in one place. Although he had put on some nicer pants and a relatively “new” hoodie, that he might have sewn some plaid onto for more style, he was still wearing his same old shoes. Rody really wanted to save money where he could.

“Woah... We definitely won’t get to all of them.” He started, turning towards Deku. “I’m open to any store recommendations you got though. Or we can explore the new ones right away.” Even with his focus on the hero, Pino was standing up right on Rody’s head and looking around with a lot of interest. Rody had been to a mall before, but nowhere near as nice as this one.

It took everything in Izuku not to start bouncing up and down where he was standing. He was waiting outside of Gate 15 for an incoming flight from Otheon. Finally, after seven long months of waiting, today was the day! 

Rody was visiting him in Japan!

They had been planning this for months. Instead of spending his extra money on All Might merchandise, he focused all of it towards Rody’s travel expenses and anything they’d end up doing while together for the week. They had practically talked every other day ever since Rody had saved up money to buy a cell phone. They had learned a lot about each other in that time, and despite the long distance between them, Izuku still felt as if they were becoming closer than ever.

So, really... it wasn’t much of a surprise that this was the most excited he’d felt in a very long time. 

As soon as he spotted Rody’s face, his eyes lit up as bright as the sun. He couldn’t help but rush forward and pull the other young man into a fierce hug. He could feel himself tearing up, but he managed to keep the tears at bay. He couldn’t keep the grin off of his face even if he tried to. 

“I can’t believe you’re actually here right now!” he exclaimed with a cheerful laugh. “It’s so great to see you again, Rody!”

“Just pulling your leg, bud. I promise I’m well-hydrated and I’m doing.. okay in the sleep department.” 

@rody-soul​

“You can’t tell me what to do.”

          “i might not be able to make you sleep or drink water, but it does beg the question on how you’re doing.”
