[ This is both ironically and unironically romantic. ]
He told me, yes. I went to go check on him. Don't worry, I didn't tell him anything we talked about, I just had to make sure he was holding it together.
I'm glad you two worked things out. Are you happy?
Thank you for checking up on him. I can tell you didn't say shit to him, he couldn't believe me when I told him that he's the only person I care about in that kind of way. I had to repeat myself a few times for it to set into that thick skull of his.
It's still weird to think about and talk about, but he's not annoying about it and that's what makes me happy. Everyone else I know would probably want to use the titles all the time or show me off or whatever, and I hate that shit.
I'm not surprised. The way he was talking he thought he ruined things between you by having those feelings in the first place. Like I said, you probably had the broken nose coming... but I hope you got it fixed up, because you were just doing your best.
I don't think he wants much between you to change, which is the best way to deal with these things really. If things weren't any good why would you even feel that way about each other? [ Saya also hates titles, they're just a necessarily evil sometimes. She tends to keep it vague with everyone except the one she's married to. ]
Yeah, he expressed to me that he felt like he needed to shove his feelings about me away. I can understand why, and I definitely would've rejected him basically any other time than now. I've never been comfortable with romance, and my parents weren't great role models so I didn't want to start my own family.
On top of that, in our society, it's legal for guys to marry each other but they can't pass on their Quirks to their kids. So same-sex couples still get a lot of judgement, as they're seen useless by a lot of assholes. It just felt weird to even think about.
But a lot of things have changed. And having to hold hands once a day kind of makes things different. I never held hands with anybody before coming here, and it feels wrong when I do it with anyone other than Deku. I've finally given up and accepted that I'm stuck with him until I die.
Which... I still think might be soon. But that's even more of a reason for me to just give up and do whatever feels right.
I'm glad you're here, then. Both because you can do what feels right, and so maybe you'll have longer.
I know what it's like, being on a clock. Different situation I guess, but also being here doesn't help me, so it's probably six of one and half a dozen of the other. I hate that you're stuck in it too.
Hey, it's fine. You and I are both spiteful assholes, so if there's anyone who's going to be able to destroy those stupid clocks and be control of our own destinies it's going to be you and me.
And if it all goes to shit then at least we got to beat each other up before then.
[ She doesn't think she's that spiteful, but he means it as a compliment so we're moving past it. Stubborn would probably be accurate... ]
Yeah, something like that.
Make sure you finally beat me before I go under, at least. Knocking you around is going to get routine, I'll probably start yawning soon. [ Her banter does not match her expression at all but it's text, it's fine. ]
I have to beat you if I'm going to need to protect you, and others from you. I'll get stronger, and stronger until I can catch you and blast that grin off your face!
I'm kidding, don't worry. Besides what are you, eleven? There's a limit to how bad an influence I'm comfortable being with an impressionable young mind.

...Well, at least Izu-chan does. You, I'm on the fence about.
(no subject)
Date: Apr. 30th, 2023 01:57 am (UTC)But for once I agree with you. I definitely don't deserve it but he's happy so what am I supposed to do? Not hold his hand?

Date: Apr. 30th, 2023 02:01 am (UTC)You're supposed to believe him when he says he's happy and he likes you the way you are. Easier said than done, I know.
