Sorry, sorry, but manipulative hurt/comfort is fucking cocaine to me. The predatory aspect of it. The vulnerability—500% better if the hurt party knows they're being manipulated and is past the point of caring. The juxtaposition of sweet and sharp flavours. Barkbarkbark

          ・⊱ Nice and simple to start, just to test the waters. He wasn't used to taking things this slow, but he would try and make sure he didn't get ahead of himself. Didn't wanna make Shouto uncomfortable or anything-

           A breath, two, he pulled back a little. "You can put yer hands on me," Eijirou murmured, just against the other's mouth. "Shoulders, arms, waist–anywhere ya like." His free hand moved, looping around the other's waist, to coax him closer ever so slightly, as he'd tilt his head and press his lips to the other's again.

It was a battle not to lean into the touch at first, he didn't want to make it weird. Of course he was taking it at face value that it was entirely normal to kiss your friends for no reason. "I will." He spoke softly, letting his eyes fall shut. And hoping Kirishima couldn't hear his heart trying to leap out of his chest.

          ・⊱ "Right." Okay, get it together. For the experiment, of course! So, Eijirou would take a quick breath before leaning forward, reaching to cup Shouto's face. "Anytime ya wanna stop, just say so. Yeah?" Gently running his thumb over the other's lip, before he'd close the distance, "Just...just kinda follow my lead, okay?" and gently kiss him.

He nodded, looking up at him with a strangely curious expression. "Of course." He sat with his hands folded in his lap. "Whenever you're ready.'

           ・⊱ He blinked, then promptly flushed a little, shaking his head. "Ah, yeah, I-I have." Shit, wait...so like this, he was gonna be his first kiss? Seriously?! "But it's okay tho! I'll guide ya!" Should they start slow then? Aaaahh- "If you're still okay with it...m-may I?"

"Not really, no..." He looked away, as if a bit embarrassed. "Should I have? Have you?" He knew he was a bit emotionally stunted, to put it bluntly, but he figured Kirishima knew what he was doing.

          ・⊱ "Holy shit." At least in knowing it wasn't somebody else that caused the incident, he could relax some, breath a little easier. His hand shift to grip Deku's, though careful not to tighten it too much, for his comfort. "I swear, my heart damn near stopped the moment I heard." But it was fine, right? Fine, Deku was fine, well, as fine as he could be right now- "H-how long're you on bedrest for? D'they letcha know?" Should he take time off to look after him? Maybe he should-

"Nothing much…just pushed me too much."Deku sighs, tired as his body hurts again. "I was trying out my quirk, but I overdone it. Plus, my body is still fragile to using their full power."Deku moves his hand and touches his fiancé's hand. "I'm sorry, I thought it wouldn't be that bad."

          "Wh–y-yeah?!" Holy shit, he was actually gonna get his answer?? Right now?! "Err, sure! Let's do this!" Sure thing, what's a little kissing between friends, right? "Let's getcha comfortable, and...w-wait, have you kissed anybody before?"

"Hmm... I've never thought about that before..." Shouto hummed. "I'd be willing to find out, if you want."

          “Yo, now I gotta ask–would making out with Todoroki be more hot or cold? Could he hypothetically use his Quirk to change things up, or…?”

its ok man its basically totally normal for two regular friends to jerk eachother off everbody does it dude its all good its not even gay its normal

So, you can balloon up or you can shrink down and I will still love you. Even if I shrink down to two inches? I'd carry you around in my pocket. MONICA GELLER AND CHANDLER BING FRIENDS (1994-2004)

"Friends dont look at friends that way" COWARD. I look at my friends with awe in my eyes, my chest is filled with love, im glowing because i get to be near my friends. I look at my friends and i would give them my everything. SO SKILL ISSUE, look at your friends with all the love that you have

        ・⊱ "Alright, that's settled then!" His chest puffed out a little in excitement. "O-okay! I'll go get it, s'all stashed away in my home office!" Catalogs he's snagged on his way home from work, that he'd printed off...ahh, seriously, he was getting more and more excited finally getting to show him-

        Eijiro moved to press a kiss to Deku's forehead, then a quick chaste one to his lips, for good measure. "Love you, I'll be right back!" And off he goes.

Deku smiles and nods. "Cuddling sounds real good after a good meal." Deku wasn't a good person at times, and he does say some things mean about people; he has been working on it since his body was weak from his portal jump and some quick work he had been doing. "Really? You have to show me on paper. I would like to see your plans for them. I mean, it doesn't matter to me, also, it's from you."

        ・⊱ "Nowhere...?" Shit, that wasn't good...! Eijirou glanced around warily, the faint sounds of approaching sirens in the distance leaving Hardening rippling across his features. Shit, that didn't leave options. But he had to keep calm. Just keep calm, figure this out-

        "I can take care of this." Said both to the other and himself, perhaps a vain reassurance, but...ahh, but nothing. This guy was definitely screwed without proper help, but it wasn't like they would give that much of a crap about his injuries while taking him in, even if he would get sent to a healer. So...so...!

        "H-here, get yer arms around me." Right, so taking care of this himself, it'll be. "I know a place we can getcha patched up. I've got you, okay?" Maybe with a konbini aid kit, sure, but it was better than nothing. Better than getting up and dragged off otherwise- "T-talk to me in the meantime, alright? Where's it hurt the most?" Ahh...wait, that building looked decent enough-

Everything had gone fuzzy for a moment, the pain practically blinding. Once his vision had cleared again he spoke. "No... Nowhere to go." He rarely stayed in one spot, spending the night in abandoned buildings wherever he could find them.

At this point it was a wonder he was even conscious. No doubt there were other injuries hidden from sight that he hadn't registered he had.

"Don't even bother...I don't have a first aid kit or anything.' he'd never needed one. Not really... He'd never gotten in a fight like this. At most it was small cuts and gashes he let scar over.

“good morning.” “you stayed.” “you stayed?” “i half expected you to leave in the middle of the night.” “last night was amazing.” “last night was a mistake.” “god,  you’re incredible.” “can we just stay in bed all day?” “i don’t want to get up.” “is that my shirt?” “i thought you left.” “i made you something to eat.” “you’re not going to just ignore me after this,  are you?” “i would love to see you again.    if that’s something that you want.” “let’s go back to sleep.” “i left,   but only to get some coffee.  it’s on the table.” “i would love to stay,   but i have to go to work.    can we get some lunch?” “come back to bed,  it’s too warm.” “i’m really glad that you didn’t leave last night.” “can i take you out to dinner sometime?” “did you sleep well?” “you hog the blankets,  you know.” “can we do this again?” “can i get a good morning kiss?” “was last night a mistake?” “c’mere,   we don’t have to get up just yet.”

"ah, my hero is here…" Deku fucked up. This was not how he planned it would work out; it seemed he needed to work on a few stolen quirks; he didn't know how powerful they were for his body, which was still weak from the portal one he had.

       ・⊱ Oh the damn irony—after each and every time Eijiro had come home injured and tried to brush it off, after time and again of inadvertently leading Deku to worry so much for his sake…here he was, right in his shoes.

        “What happened?” The words left his lips in a shaky rasp, Hardening rippling across his skin from the tension he was wound with. “Did…w-were you pushed to this?” Did someone attack and force him to fight back, at cost to himself? Or— “D-did something go wrong?” 

@heromuses from here:

Shouto groaned, hardly able to see through the blood dripping down his face from a gash on his hairline. "I think I can make it..." Maybe a delusional thought given his whole body was trembling. Oh, and the broken ankle that gave out the minute he tried to put any weight on it. "Fuck!" He cried out, his leg immediately giving out beneath him.

       ・⊱“ “Whoa—hey!” Eijirou moved fast to catch him, a jolt of worry spearing right through his gut. Shit...wait, this was a villain. Was it okay to let his guard down like this?! But at the same time…the guy was totally defenseless. If he wanted to hurt or trick him, he would have done so the moment he got close. Right??? Not to mention the blood…the smell was cloyingly strong, it almost left even him dizzy.

       So what should he do? Wait for backup and have them take the other off his hands?

        No…he knew damn well he wouldn’t be treated right. He saw how they took that blade guy, the day of his debut. And many a villain before and after that—they didn’t care enough to see them treated.  And this guy…this guy was t much older than he was—

       “Do—“ He stopped then shook his head. “D-do you have a hideout or something nearby?” That was a start. If not…surely there was some building he could break into-

       ・⊱ Eijiro felt his face flush warm as he tried to brush off what had just happened. Aaand definitely could not, considering what a laugh she’d gotten. Which he’d normally have no problems with, her laughter was always nice to hear, even at something stupid he’d done. Especially at something stupid he’d done. But right now-

        He managed a grimace of a grin as he took the punch, reaching to try and ruffle her hair up. “H-haha, very funny.” Ugh, if only he’d had his Quirk up, that would have been made a whole lot easier on his face...!

        Unfortunately for him, he was probably going to have to deal with a sore nose for the rest of the day. Especially since he’d really rather not try to BS an explanation to Recovery Girl. She always knew when he was telling a cover up anyways—

        “A-anyways—“ Yeah, real subtle, dodging the question there- “—wh-what’s up with you, huh? What's got you all sunshine’s and rainbows?” Wait- “Err, more’n usual, I mean—“

Sakia seems to be weirdly energized this morning, an obvious pep in her step as she made her way to her respective classroom, unsurprisingly, she immediately perked up upon catching sight of her red headed friend, picking up the pace to catch up with him.

“Heeey, Eiji-kun! Hey hey, guess what??” She didn’t even have time to get the rest of her words out before Kirishima faceplants into a wall, sending her into a flurry of giggles as she catches up to him, playfully punching his shoulder.

“What’s up with you today, huh? You think you got hit with a ghost quirk or somethin’?”
