An expected response from the hot-headed blonde, but he was happy to hear the concern after. Rody smiled gently as he analyzed his brother yet again, brushing back his hair to get a clear view of his face. "He's fine. Just really shaken up." He confirmed, glancing over at Pino on the boy's shoulder, seeing that she was still an emotional wreck. That checked out; Rody felt like his legs would give out underneath him if he allowed them to.
Lala made her way to hold onto her big brother's leg, shedding her own tears, and he could have collapsed in his siblings arms at that moment. But he wouldn't let himself right now. Not in front of the hero.
"I guess you never got to properly meet my siblings." His voice sounded a bit strained but he pushed through it. The only time Bakugou would've ever seen the two of them was in the hospital after the Humarise incident. Rody gestured to the boy in his arms with his head. "This is Roro." Then he looked down at the youngest holding onto him. "And this is Lala." She gave the hero the smallest of waves.
Katsuki knew that patrols were part of the job, but they also bored him to tears if there were no crimes happening. It was just walking around through your assigned precinct and helping old folks across the street. The most he’d done earlier was stop a dumbass purse snatcher. It was low-grade bullshit that was easily taken care of.
He was about to radio in to Endeavor when he saw a villain zoom by out of the corner of his eye. The villain was carrying what appeared to be a sack of money and zipping between obstacles with what appeared to be... sand...? “What the fuck...?!” he exclaimed out loud before immediately jumping into action.
A sneer crossed his face, much like the joy that would glimmer in a predator’s eyes before pouncing on their prey. “Guess I gotta kick some fuckin’ teeth in!” he exclaimed before blasting off into the air with his hands outstretched.
He caught up with the villain in no time--
--only to be faced with said villain holding a kid up in front of him like a shield.
“If you blast me, you’re only gonna hurt the kid!” the older man exclaimed. “Let me go and maybe I’ll decide to let the kid go free!”
Katsuki scowled at the cowardice of the villain. “What? Can’t face me head-on so ya gotta go involve kids in this shit?” he huffed. “Fuck, you’re lame--!”
At the young boy, he shouted, “Watch your head, kid!” He leapt up into the air and aimed what were machine gun-like concentrated explosions all around the villain. Each shot hit the pavement around them, kicking up gravel and dust. Though they looked scattered, they were also highly precise strikes that destabilized the ground. One such hit was able to directly hit the back of the villain’s head and knock him entirely unconscious.
Though, just as the robber went to hit the ground, Katsuki quickly braced the man just so he could grab the kid out of the guy’s arms. Whirling around, he placed the boy onto his feet. “You okay, kid?” he asked before pausing. He furrowed his eyebrows when one particular feature stuck out to him. The hair.
The noodle looking hair...
“Oi, are you related to----?”
He didn’t get the chance to finish his question because the kid was already running towards his older brother in tears.

The villain’s eyes follow the server as he walks away, an eyebrow raised in the only acknowledgment of the other’s comment.
Maybe he played it just a little stupid (and tremendously dangerous), but Izuku, while accepting said fact, doesn’t really consider himself dense. It’s all going to pay off one way or the other, either by finding out at least some of the answers to his questions, or bringing attention to him. He can use both.
As he bides the time for the other boy’s return, Izuku slowly scans the other patrons’ appearances. Nothing out of ordinary for this kind of place, and nothing his eyes would rest upon for longer than just a moment. Oh well.
Once the server returns, Izuku welcomes him with another smile; a bit different than the one he gave him before. “So,” he begins, “How about you answer my question, and I answer yours in return?” Sounds shady, but then he follows with a quite innocent inquiry: “Why do you think I came here?”
Coming back with the fries, Rody set them down in front of his current patron of interest. The pink bird stayed in her place by the bar.
Hearing the other start, Rody knew something was up. Well, he knew something was up since the guy walked in. He squints a bit, raising an eyebrow at the inquiry. It doesn't hurt to entertain him. "Sure." Rody smiled leaning against the booth, getting 'comfortable.' He thought maybe the question would be straight to the point, and Rody would finally have a clear answer to why he was here. With that expectation, the actual question caught him off-guard for a moment.
But he liked it.
The brunette hummed with a smile. "People come here for lots of different reasons. To generalize, they come here looking for jobs and information. To meet with others they plan to work with." There was a pause as Rody looked him over. "Seeing that you asked me a question like that, I don't think you're here for any jobs. I think you're already on the job, looking for something."
He leaned in a bit from his side of the booth. "Now, should I ask the obvious question and hope you answer me honestly?" He rhetorically asked before asking his real question. "What's your real reason for coming here? I think being honest is in your best interest if you want what you're looking for. But that's just your server speaking."
Rody's eyes were locked on Uraraka and the guy, watching with concern from his corner. There was click in his ear. The call went through. "What's your emergency?"
"There's a-" There's something flying at him. Fast. Rody quickly ducked back into the alley way, grabbing the kid gently but urgently with his free hand to move them away from the opening. The projectile slammed into the wall opposite of them, Rody shielding the kid from any debris that might have flown off.
They were fine.
Rody went back to the phone call, telling the operator where they were and what the situation was. Thankfully, law enforcement wouldn't take too long to arrive. They just had to hold out until then.
The kidnapper flinched as the motorcycle changed its trajectory, running and dodging out of the way as it crashed behind him with a hefty thud. He didn't want to take the risk of his air not being enough and potentially being crushed by the thing.
He regained focus, looking up to locate Uraraka and readied another blast. Just as he was about to take fire, a certain pink bird flew right into his face, causing his aim to go off and miss the hero.
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.

MAGOR MHA WHM MOVIE SPOILERS!!!
May i present to you a feral Deku defending his boyfriend, Rody
He totally meant LOVE but will just skip that part for now~
“ you're okay... you're okay. “
“ just... two seconds. “
“ it's me, yeah, just me. “
“ are you hurt? “
“ i killed someone. someone in their group, someone close to them. that's why i'm here. “
“ you fucking idiot... look at what happened! “
“ did he hurt you? i swear, i'll kill him... “
“ are you okay with me touching you? “
“ why did you come here alone? “ “ he said he was going to kill you. i couldn't let that happen. “
“ i'm gonna save your life, asshole. “
“ you don't understand... we can't retaliate, not unless you're willing to lose men over a war we weren't equipped to deal with in the first place. “
“ are you okay? “ “ i don't know... i don't know what he did to me. to any of them. “
“ look, nobody's killing anyone, okay? not unless we have to. “
“ they'll come for me. they'll come for all of you for trying to save me. “
“ i was ready to die. “ “ how can you say that? “ “ because you can't risk your life to save mine! “
“ no, you don't get it, somebody has to die or this will never end. “
“ we can't lose more people, we can't lose you. “
“ if something happens to me, that's on you, okay? so you better fight for your survival, and don't come running with no martyr shit because if you die, i'm going to kill ever last person in this compound until they shoot me dead. “
“ you're safe, okay? “
“ let me look, hey, let me look. “
“ i loaded that gun. “ “ and i triggered it. “
“ how can you tell me to get out of here? “ “ because if i die, then at least i know i didn't take you with me. “
“ you have to leave. “ no, no way, i'm not leaving without you. “
“ no, you're bleeding... what happened? “
“ i can't believe this is happening... i mean, are you insane? “
“ what did you do to get in here? are you in trouble? did they see you?
“ i'm so sorry. “ “ it's okay. “
“ i'm going to get you out of here, okay? “
“ nobody is going to hurt you. “ “ but — “ “ you're safe. “
“ hey, look at me, look at me. you know me. “
“ i'm gonna help you, all right, so guide me through this. “
“ hey, hey, hey, there's no need to rush... “
“ it's my responsibility... i was the one taken captive, it's not your responsibility to save me. “
“ you didn't see him... they killed that man, right in front my eyes. “
“ it's over. “ “ no, no, you don't understand... there's no remorse. none at all, they grabbed that woman, cut her head off in one clean slate. “
“ i'm so sorry. “ “ let's just get out of here. “
“ just, give her a minute. she'll come around. “
“ nobody is blaming you for what happened tonight. “
“ from here on forward, we stick together. no more running off on our own. “
“ you're not a victim. you don't have to be if you don't want to be. i sure as hell didn't. “
“ you survived tonight. regardless of what happened, you survived. “
“ we're going to kill them, okay? no excuses, no remorse. “
“ i'm gonna open the door real slow, okay? “
“ hey, hey, hey, just take your time. “
“ his head, his eyes rolled... “ “ don't. don't think about it. “
“ look, you may not be in the right shape of mind to make that type decision, but i am, and i'm telling you, in about five minutes, this whole place is going to be swarmed by heavily armed soldiers ordered to kill us, willing to take a bullet to see it through so unless you want me to throw you over my shoulders like a rag doll, i suggest you get up off your ass and start moving. “
❝ i don’t know how much longer i can keep this up. ❞ (nuravity)
"Wh- Huh?" Oh no, this sounded like something serious. Was Uraraka... doubting herself? Pino flew over and rested on the other's lap out of worry and to provide some sort of comfort. "...What do you mean? You're not talking about you being a hero... are you?" This was probably the softest Rody had ever spoken to Uraraka yet. There was no way she was giving up on her dream.
Right?
This person was definitely her. She was alive. The grief he and the rest of the family went through. All these years of raising his siblings on his own. All the trouble he got into because of the jobs he had to take to be able to provide for him and his siblings. All this time...
He had to grow up so fast. He had to be strong for them and was always their shoulder to cry on when they had a hard day. But who was there for Rody?
He wanted to say so many things. He wanted to tell her what he and Roro and Lala have been through. He wanted to tell her how they were doing so much better now. That they were doing amazing in school. That he was following his dreams.
But no words came out. When he tried to speak, only a sob came out. The boy was overwhelmed. All of his stress and worries came crashing down on him all at once, along with the relief and shock of seeing his mother again.
All he could do was nod in response to both of her questions. Unlike her, he couldn't keep it together. Rody was a mess of emotions, standing there as his body didn't really know what to do. At least Pino was functioning just fine, flying full force to Amelia, clinging onto her with her little wings.
X @rody-soul Amelia felt her lip begin to tremble as Kamisha wrapped a wing around her to silently comfort her and hopefully keep it together so that she didn’t fall to pieces out in the open like this. They lied to her, those monsters lied to her and ripped her children away from her, robbed them off their mother and her chance to take care of them like they deserved. “L-look at how big you’ve grown Rody, the last time I saw you was when I left to give birth to Lala. They lied, those backstabbing doctors and Police lied! They said you were all gone and I couldn’t find out anything on what happened to you only to find out the truth years later.” Taking a second to regain composure to quickly wipe the tears from her eyes. Oh if she could Amelia would be raising literal hell right now for what those people put her family through but right now she would let it go. She was just filled with relief and joy that her children were alive. “Are you and your siblings doing ok sweetheart? I’m so sorry I wasn’t there for you and I know I may not have the right to ask this of you now but if you three are willing would you allow your mother to be a part of your life again?”
vsagis:
Ah, of course he’s made it obvious.
Izuku rests his chin on his hands, fingers linked together to support himself better. “Sometimes you just get a craving,” he jokes with a huff. Normally, more time would pass between him just appearing and someone asking this kind of questions, but this situation is different. In such a close-knit community, if it can be called that, every stranger stands out like a sore thumb.
“I think I’ll have the fries. Gonna go with the craving first.” At least he can make the other work for it. Get him more curious, and get something in return.
Hopefully.
“Right.” The word was practically laced with suspicion. A craving for a specific place’s fries, when you’ve never been to said place. Makes total sense. There were plenty of other, non-shady, places to grab some unhealthy fries at.
Whatever squint Rody’s eyes held was immediately lost as he grinned, reverting back to that customer service personality for the moment. He was on the job after all. “Alright, I’ll go get those for ya then. If you want anything else to drink besides water, let me know.” And off to the kitchen he went. Though, a certain pink bird did fly out of his work apron onto the bar counter.
Looks like she was keeping watch. Let’s hope the new fry-loving customer didn’t mind two little eyes observing his every move.
us-smash:
“Not guilt tripping rody, If I was guilt tripping for one I would’ve said something worse. Second have you met me? we literally met while I was out getting groceries with Bakugo and Todoroki, somehow danger and chaos always follows me but i’d like to see them try with doing something to us. I’ll protect you and Pino!”
Blinks.
“...So, I don’t have to ‘throw you under the bus.’ You’ll just protect us anyway. Like the hero you are, eh?”
He pieced together his quirk that quickly? Rody was immediately unsettled by this man’s presence and glared as he went to pick up the cage Pino was locked in. He examined Pino once she was placed on the table to make sure what he said was true. There was a sigh of relief.
Rody decided to let the villain go about his spiel before responding. It was unnerving how this guy found out about him and what he does and why. When he came closer, Rody would noticeably back away as much as one could while tied to a chair. He didn’t care if Pino and him were unharmed; he didn’t care if his hands were up the whole time; he didn’t trust him.
“For starters,” Rody spoke up, mimicking the stranger. “Cut it out with the sweetheart. Secondly, why in the hell would I accept that offer? My family and I have been doing just fine on our own, thank you very much. I don’t need some guy who tied me up’s help.” This was not someone who Rody would want to get involved with. This seemed far more treacherous than his current job.
X @rody-soul
“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.”
Eh, I'll figure this out later. Rody Soul RP Blog !!WHM spoilers!!
