Shopping suddenly sounds so much more fun than it usually is.
"The soba you made was excellent." he compliments, "I'm sure they'll be fine if the food tastes good. But if you really do want something other than that, I can introduce you to one of my best friends here." Which he's going to anyway, unbeknownst that the man already met the lot of them. "He's good at everything. I can't imagine anything he isn't good at, that includes cooking. Maybe you two would enjoy cooking together."
It would be fun. They could debate their purchases, see what's best and Toge can find the most strange things he can get his hands on, for Shoto's entertainment.
Toge's smile is positively radiant at hearing that Shoto liked it. I'm really really glad.
He can't help but fire that off quickly.
Sure, that sounds like fun too. Unfortunately my friends aren't here, so I can't introduce you, but I'm sure you'd like them.
That's an active move toward manslaughter, it has to be. A smile like that is as deadly as the lips behind it. He glances at his phone and it tugs at his heart in a way he doesn't understand. He really should see a doctor.
When the next message comes in, he's already thinking of ways to get Bakugo to come meet Toge. "I'm very lucky," Todoroki professes, deciding there's absolutely no reason not to re-set an arm around Toge, too. "TWo of my best friends and a man that we saved is here with us. Though, truth told, he probably had a hand in saving us too." He rambles just that little bit, "I would love to meet your friends. I can still meet them by the things you tell me, or stories you have of them."
This time, Toge is first to scoot in and snuggle against Shoto with his arm there. He curls up comfortably so he can balance his phone on his lap.
I have stories, so you'll get to know them too, but you are lucky to have your best friends here. I think that's nice. Guess I just have to make new friends.
That's harder than it seems, but his expression doesn't change.
The smooth nature of just how easily they fit together like this almost distracts Shoto, too. His mind remarks on it, but Toge makes everything feel easy. They've only been each other's boyfriend for a handful of minutes and Shoto doesn't feel anxious anymore.
"I think you should, and I don't hope for the kidnap of your friends, but I hope maybe one day someone from your world will come here to keep you company, too."
Maybe. I don't know, they might appreciate the break. We work a lot so. A break can be really nice.
Toge's comfortable, but that's not new. He's been comfortable in Shoto's presence for awhile. There has been leaning. There have been hugs. There have been kisses. He just thinks Shoto's really sweet. He's glad to have the break, just like he says, the boyfriend is just icing on the cake.
He's already thinking about what he'll bring Shoto next time. Maybe his favourite, his rice balls.
Being snuggled in to, being able to hold someone (which is a crazy thought), these are things that he's never considered could happen to him. But here he is, comfortable and happy, too. "I think you have a very positive attitude, Toge." He gives a tiny smile across normally stoic features... normally for anyone else. Toge makes him smile a lot. "I hope, then, that they get the break too. I didn't think of that."
