~THE BIRTHDAY BOY IN AN AVIATOR HAT~

Pino flew back towards him with a loud chirp. It caused Rody to look up since she had only been flying around silently before. Something must have caught her attention.

Rody froze in place at the sight suddenly in front of him. His heart felt like it was going to leap out at any moment. He was so happy but so so worried at the same time. These emotions were stirring up within him and needed to be let out.

"..Izuku."

Rody prepared for the hug once he saw Deku take his first steps. Upon impact, he stumbled back a bit but kept them both up right nonetheless. His heart shattered at the sound and sight of Izuku sobbing. He quickly wrapped his arms around him, giving a tight, comforting squeeze.

It didn't take long for Rody to start tearing up, burying his face into the green mess of hair, holding him even closer.

"...Y-You had me worried sick..."

Izuku was tired. Exhausted, honestly. Physically, emotionally, and any other type of exhausted that existed. After Uraraka managed to convince the civilians to let him rest at U.A., the last of his adrenaline drained from him. He could barely stand, so it was no surprise when his male classmates lifted him into the air and carried him off to the bath. 

Though, as he was being carted off, he managed to glance around at the familiar surroundings of the common area. Though he’d been away for nearly two months, it felt more like an entire year instead. 

Out of the corner of his eye, he spotted an oddly familiar pink bird flying across the living room. There was no way, right...? 

There was no way he was here...! 

He was just hallucinating from exhaustion. That had to be it! Still, Izuku could feel his heart ache as he was pulled into the bathroom.

At the end of everything, Rody wonders if Deku really will keep his promise. Because deep down, no matter how full and close the last few days have felt, heroes are still hard to believe in.

And then he gets the first postcard. — Slight spoilers for World Heroes Mission!

“Uhuh, sure.” Rody wasn’t here for it. He didn’t want to listen.

“No big villains hang around here. Or heroes for that matter. The only people I ever have to worry about are the police, and they haven’t caught on so far. I know how to handle myself.” He really hated this guy mentioning protection and his siblings. Rody’s protected them just fine all these years. Who would attack them when neighbors didn’t even want to talk to them in the first place?

Pino reflected the thought about how secluded his family was, her feathers drooping a bit. What a pathetic thought to have at a time like this. There was a big sigh.

“...Please...I just want to go home... Leave me out of whatever you’re doing...”

  “Oh looks like my little hunch was right on the money then your little bird friend is your quirk!” The bird didn’t even stir once after knocking Rody out until the brunette came around so he wasn’t sure if the hunch was correct until now. “That’s adorable they’re so tiny and cute.” Carefully picking up the small comfy cage he had Pino inside and brought it over to Rody, placing it on the table within arms length of them.    “There we go now you can see I didn’t harm you or your little friend here. I don’t even know what’s in the case there for starters, didn’t look inside it yet so I don’t know if it’s anything I want sweetheart. Second I have no intentions of harming you at all, I heard from word of mouth that you’re a carrier of sorts. An interesting and risky profession it is, even I can admit to that as a villain. Now circling around to what it is that I want, I want to propose something to you.”   Moving a little closer to the brunette and gave him a reassuring smile, having his hands visible the entire time he was speaking to show that he really had no intentions of harming him. “I do apologize for tying you up but couldn’t have you running away so soon can I? What I want is to offer you something, you’re doing this to care for family right? Well my offer is this, I can offer you and the ones your caring for protection and security and in exchange I get people to share this place with. Having this mansion all to myself is a lot for just one person minus the help i’ll be hiring.”

Rody ducked into an alley way that was a safe distance away from the commotion but close enough to keep an eye on it. He set the kid down carefully, crouching down to his eye level with a reassuring smile on his face. "Everything's going to be okay. We'll get you back to your parents. Just hang tight, alright?"

The brunette pulled out his phone to call the police. He put the phone up to his ear, his foot tapping while it rang. Hearing a loud thud caused him to peek around the corner of the alley to check on Uraraka. His eyes widened in concern seeing that she had been knocked into a building. But seeing her bounce right back eased his worries... a bit. How the hell were heroes so durable?

The kidnapper was ready to walk away after she made contact with the wall, but stopped in place when she yelled. He quickly turned around, crouching down to dodge for extra caution as he aimed his arms toward the debris. One hand produced a forceful blast, directing one of the projectiles back to Uraraka. The other hand produced a vacuum-like suction and caught the second projectile mid-air as he made it come towards him. With a quick turn and switch of hands, he propelled the piece to where Rody was peeking his head out from. He didn’t forget about her comrade.

Time flew by like the wind. Between classwork and trying to help Rody feel accommodated at UA, Ochako had barely enough time for herself!

But she decided to ask Hatsume for a new upgrade to her uniform and was passing the hallway when she noticed Rody's door to his guest room stood open. Sneaking a peak, she poked her head in but to her surprise he didn't seem to be there. Had he simply forgotten to close the door?

Scratching her head, she continued on her way to Hatsume when her stomach growled. Although she had a small lunch a few hours prior and wasn't very hungry, she still wanted to eat something.

I guess I'll meet Hatsume later.

With that thought, Ochako made her way to the kitchen to see if she could find a snack.

Rody’s panic levels were rising as the ground got closer and closer. He was fully prepared to do a tuck and roll, but the preparation was for nothing it seemed. A wave of relief washed over him. Being grabbed so quickly and with such force knocked the wind out of him for a moment, but that was better than whatever damage he might've taken if he hadn't been caught.

"The attack was coming right for us and I panicked! We were in the way- I don't know!" He just didn't want him or Bakugou to get hurt. It was poor thinking in retrospect, but it was hard for Rody to think properly at a time like this.

Speaking of getting hurt, Rody got a clear view of the villain latching onto the hero's leg. He felt his stomach turn at the sight. This wasn't acceptable. Pino flew out of Rody's pocket, flying as fast as she could towards the villain, smacking into his face. The surprise and impact was enough to loosen the villain's hold on the leg, giving Bakugou the opportunity to free himself.

Once the opportunity had passed, Pino retreated back to where they were in a hurry. Rody could tell he was slowing Bakugou down, and that injury definitely wasn't helping his case either. He was trying his best to think up a plan while his mind was in a panic. How the hell did heroes do this?

Although Rody was fully expecting to be told to shut up, he really didn't want any more injuries to occur; he wanted them out of here. He talked lower and more serious this time around. "...Are you sure you’re able to lose this guy? Maybe you can blow something up and cause rubble to fall on him." He had Pino point towards an upcoming cliffside for him since he was currently facing the other way. "Would that work?"

It figured that he’d be stuck babysitting when a villain attacked. Now he had to get this extra out of harm’s way while taking out said villain. “‘course I got a fuckin’ plan, what kinda stupid-ass question is that?” He did not, in fact, have a plan at the moment, but he was working on one. At the moment, they were hunkered down waiting for a chance to move without getting blasted into pieces by their quirk. At least there weren’t any other civilians in the immediate area he had to worry about.

Flexing his fingers, tiny explosions crackled off in his palms. Their cover wouldn’t hold up forever; it was already starting to wear away under the constant assault. But as easy as it would be to just go out and start fighting them, the place was becoming structurally unsound. His explosions could make it collapse and crush them all--it was lucky that the villain wasn’t doing that already. 

Crouching down, he glared over his shoulder at Rody. “Get on and hold on.” It was the best option for now.
