[This is very true and neither would have asked one another to change who they are. If they would've they never would've made it this far in their relationship let alone in their lives.
No! It's stuff he thinks Bakugo will like, it's coming home with him. Dragon fruit has to be spicy, right? Dragons breath fire.]
If they do, we'll know tomorrow. If not, I will request it as long as it doesn't interfere with your tasks. Working with you is just as exciting as hearing about your day.
[The day they get to go into the office together is going to be the most stressful and the most invigorating day to that date. It's a dream and they've already made a few of their dreams realities in the world they're living in and this would be no different. Just that they had to wait for a while, longer than maybe they'd like, but at least half of them were happy in their placements.]
Together? Could I come sit with you then?
[They could be married for ten years and Shoto would've asked him the same question. But. Take solace in the following:]
I'm going to. I'm going to sit with you if I see you.
[IT'S A GOOD SHIRT. WEAR IT. As always, Bakugo will win the day no matter what it is, in small or large victories. Dynamight is no one to be trifled with, even by someone as powerful as Shoto.]
Just a regular one. Signing things, talking with people.
[He's already into the next area, happily picking out the things on Bakugo's list and maybe some things that he wants to try on his own, too. You know, things he'll regret like spiced milk. What is that? No one knows. But Shoto's going to.]
[Vet it past him first, dammit! Dragon fruit, liver strips, buncha fucking celery, what are you putting in that damn bag, Half-n-Half?! Don't get what you "think" he likes; use the list of shit he's TELLING YOU he likes!
Dragon fruit rationale is cute... but stupid. Come on.]
Might want to put in the request when you get home, instead of making them scramble to change your fucking schedule first thing tomorrow.
[He's been looking forward to their agency ever since they talked about making it. What building they'd want, what kind of interns they'd accept, what their hero focus would be, if they wanted to have an open invite to pro heroes for mentoring opportunities, where the location was going to be, all those kinds of details. It's an exciting topic to talk about together.]
YOU DON'T HAVE TO FUCKING ASK ME THAT!! WE'RE DATING!! YOU BETTER FUCKING SIT NEXT TO ME!!
[Yeah well, too bad he's yelling into the phone while Shoto's making peace with his previous question. They get along the same path, just at very different speeds and volumes. What a pair. As for marriage... likely going to happen in the future. It's going to be a crazy wedding, particularly due to their respective parents.
NO! HE JUST FUCKING MIGHT! SHUT UP! And he's going to win. That's what heroes do. No matter what challenge faces them/ From the largest obstacles to the smallest interruptions.]
Ugh, great. Gonna stay in the crowd in fucking disguise.
[Because he doesn't want to do shit like signing things or talking to people. Boring, annoying, pisses him off and he hardly ever stays the full time, if he even bothers to acquiesce to the appearance in the first place.
Lucky for Shoto, Bakugo can use spiced milk easily. Get it.]
You better make it worth my while if I show myself there...
[Hey! He's getting stuff off the list, too! It's just that he's adding to it. He's buying it so Bakugo can't complain anyway! The broccoli is for Shoto though, unless Bakugo really wants some. Even some cereal that has sugary goodness that literally neither of them need in their diet but why not be children about it some days.]
I'll do it in the car. My schedule is more PR than it is anything else lately. I understand the necessity but I don't like not being out there.
[That agency is a nice legacy they can leave for future generations when they have no choice but to both retire. Even then retirement probably looks like going in and being grumpy and old to run it until their dying day.]
Don't yell. You'll give away your position.
[Not 'my poor ear', just that he's worried Bakugo will give himself away at the wrong time. Should they even be on the phone? Probably not, but he misses his boyfriend greatly and not to mention that said wedding is best just settled to eloping. He just hopes that their mothers get along. His mother could use more friends like Bakugo's mom.
There's a tiny smirk to the 'oh great'. Yeah, Shoto feels that way too sometimes. But even more that Bakugo is going to rope himself into it because he's going to be there. But...
He recognizes that tone in Bakugo's voice and the words themselves of course.]
Oh?
[Waiting in the line might not be the best place for the conversation but here we are. Also impulse buys are probably not the best to leave Shoto around anyway, so it's a good distraction.]
[Warning. He's going "off list" in the store. Broccoli is fine; he's never had an aversion to it, being more than happy to show his mom he was a big strong boy capable of even eating (little) trees! So long as it's not those horribly sugary things with marshmallows and shit. Light sweetness is what Bakugo prefers. Shoto's free to get what he likes.]
Fucking hate that PR crap.
[Always says that. Bakugo will make some appearances and it's usually as intense and rough as it's always been, though there's truth to his words and he's not afraid to say or point out tough things even when it'd be more tactful not to. Shit needs to be said and noticed or it'll wind up making trouble in the future.
That's what he's gunning for! A grumpy old coot who can still kick ass and take down even the young shitheads that think they can overpower Dynamight in his older age. And damn right he's gonna wanna make sure their agency stays strong.]
I'm not on a fucking stealth mission!
[Though that's still said quieter than before. (Bakugo wouldn't think Shoto's mom needed a friend like his mom, cause his mom can be loud and obnoxious. ... Yeah but to WHOM is she loud and obnoxious too, Bakugo?) Either way, maybe they shouldn't be on the phone, but he doesn't care. He wants to talk to Shoto for a bit. Hasn't seen his boyfriend in a while.]
I'll be within fifteen minutes of you, dammit. [Just not near the front. Probably near the back where he can hang out clandestine and not draw attention. Then go meet Shoto off stage or whatever during his breaks.] Just give me the details.
[That might have been a good move if Shoto wouldn't despise it, having someone else go with him for that reason. Thankfully Bakugo isn't a dick like that. He just has to deal with the random shit that Shoto brings home thinking Bakugo may like to try it or having the wrong idea about the food or product. Which is great, since it means they get to try something new together ...sometimes. Most times.]
Me too. It's necessary or I wouldn't. Sometimes I think you're better at it than I am.
[Bakugo has strong feelings about it and that's fine by Shoto. Get those angry feelings out. It just means that he gets less of the angry when he gets ho-- well no he doesn't. He just gets renewed uppity behaviour otherwise. Which is just as welcome, really.
Grumpy old man that he'd love even to that day. The same kind of grumpy young man he's dealing with right now, even if quieter, telling him he's not on a stealth mission. But again it's that tone and the idea he's going to be right there at the meet and greet event.]
Good. That means you won't mind meeting me on my breaks covertly in whatever room it is they've set up for me.
[If Shoto does bring home something new or different, usually Bakugo's going to cook it or at least make it work. Only time he's ever tossed something is if the thing he brings is completely ruined. Like that one box of cherry tomatoes that happened to be hiding a reaaally gross one in the middle. Yeah, two days in the fridge and none of were trustworthy enough to attempt saving. But ironically, a few "random shoto" purchases have actually introduced something really good, and now those things occasionally come into their diets.]
Of course I'm better at it cause I don't fucking put up with it!
[Backwards way of looking at it, but it mostly means the blonde's far more willing to tell someone to shut up or refuse to do something he doesn't want to do. Then again, he has a lot more "don't want to do that" than Shoto does. Meaning the other boy's more often chosen for PR cause he's gentler, nicer, and apparently there's a war among their fanbase as to who's hotter.
He's not on a stealth mission, per say, but probably not in a place where he should be yelling n his phone either. After all, this had been texting initially. It's easier to talk since Shoto's shopping... and Bakugo misses his voice, despite reading all his texts in his boyfriend's voice in his head.]
[Completely ruined and Shoto go hand in hand for more than just food. Sometimes it happens. At least Bakugo isn't a wimp and that's something that his partner appreciates greatly. Trying new things is exciting. Sometimes not tasty, but exciting.]
Maybe that's what I should do, too.
[Can anyone imagine Shoto being anything but compliant when it isn't something he stringently stands against? Or feels he should? Hm. He used to but not anymore. Maybe it's time to return back to those days. Like the water bill. He can put his foot down on that.
Granted it's easier for them both. Shoto doesn't exactly hate hearing Bakugo's voice and knowing he's alright, either. It's not that he knows where Bakugo is and certainly not in time to go 'save' him (not that he'd likely need it) but sometimes it drives him insane to know he's not able to always be there to help. Luckily the prospect of Bakugo understanding he's going to get himself defiled between signings is definitely taking up his mind instead.
The store probably isn't the best place for Shoto to be thinking about it. But. He'll live.]
Now I'm looking forward to the event even more. I wonder if we can find someone with a time travelling quirk. Or maybe you can help me practice for the event when we get home.
[And that's all he's saying since he's standing in public. The last thing he needs is someone overhearing him talking about what he will or won't be doing sexually to someone in or out of events.]
It sounds like everything is going according to mission?
[Bakugo mostly knows the food aspect and some social faux passes the other boy didn't intend. But little else would he say is "completely ruined" about Shoto. Well, some post-fucked states can be nearing that level. Psh, like he'd ever have gotten this far as a fucking wimp. So long as Shoto makes something edible (safely) and Bakugo can growl at him, it's eaten and critiqued in the blonde's normal brusque manner.]
You got the guts for it?
[Bakugo doubts it. Shoto's general kindness and his desire to meet people and expand those social paths once so closed off to him aren't going to stand by and watch him be a conscious dick to other people like Bakugo can be. Yeah yeah, fuck off about the damn water bill.
The day he needs Shoto to come "save" him will be the day he starts ranting about shit at home. (Actually, Shoto's saved him and protected him a number of times during their battles together; Dynamight's not perfect despite his desire to appear so. They work the best as a team for a reason. Covering each other's blind spots.) As for getting defiled between his boyfriend's signings and shit... well...
Maybe you should stop handling the cucumber so familiarly, Shoto. And Bakugo needs to stop thinking about a possible quickie during his mission.]
If someone ever had a time traveling Quirk, the world would start fighting over them. Practicing is the more logical option, Half-n-Half.
[Not probable, but still logical.]
Yeah. One more delivery and we should be done and heading back.
[He may never get to the point of knowing all the nuances but thanks to Bakugo and a few others he's learning and learned. However, the aforementioned is the best state of ruination and one he's keen to repeat any time. As for if he could do what Bakugo could do, luckily he's heard that turn of phrase before in his adult life.]
Yes. I could be stringent if I wanted to. I just don't see the need sometimes.
[Which is, yep, that doubt coming to fruition. Shoto definitely does want to meet, see and talk to people but he also doesn't want to do that when he could be home with Bakugo. Or even doing things like this, just menial tasks that Bakugo himself doesn't have to do if he does them for him while he's busy. It's not taking it from his lover it's just taking it in the stead of him for efficiency sake.
They really are a good team and while they match well with a few other heroes, or even larger groups, them together is usually enough. Then again, them together is why he's handling things like this. It's not his fault. It's his fault... he shouldn't have been implying things while he was out. Instead he lets the lady ring him through and pays sometime during their conversation.]
I hope so, I don't want to practice on my own even if you've given me the drive to do so.
[Being in public sucks. They might have to make a new rule not to talk until missions are over if this keeps up. ...or maybe talk more during missions who knows.]
[And rash despite his normally calm state. Those differences are something Bakugo finds attractive. From how someone as unassuming as Shoto can come a massive torrent of ice or flames. Thinking the other hero wasn't passionate simply because he's quiet and thoughtful was a big fucking mistake. He's seen just how intense Shoto can get.
He's not going to find Bakugo telling him to go out and meet other people when he could be home with him. Shoto's not exactly "more" social than the explosive blonde; he's simply more willing to accept invites to social things than Bakugo.
Living together had been a huge adjusted for them. They didn't have an entire dormitory and 18 other people between them to distract or cover up their differences. Those menial tasks had quickly turned into a "my way your way" clash, from where to put the recycle bin to who's in charge of the dishes. Did they want to have set chores on a schedule or do things as they arose in front of whoever was in the apartment at the time.
Yet despite all that, their teamwork and relationship saw it through. Not without some fights and bumps along the way. A few villains got to be on the tail end of the occasional argument, when Bakugo came at them full of pent-up frustration. HE wasn't going to be the idiot who thought he could push Shoto around. Didn't mean the blonde got to avoid the occasional apology to his boyfriend. Guilty and he knew it, so... at least he's mature enough to own up the times he fucked up.
Ah shit, don't go talking about practicing on your own!! He KNOWS Shoto means the event, from speech to presentation, but his BRAIN immediately goes to their planned intermissions... Fucking hell.]
Practice what...?
[Gonna possibly really screw himself with this question.]
[There are things that Shoto won't move or budge on, but there are things he knows he has to make concessions for as well. Their disagreements were always just that, disagreements that they worked out somehow. That icy/fiery personality isn't without it's faults but Bakugo navigates those waters just as well. Working well in school and in the field are two things that probably saved both of them and then again is probably some of the reason that they were able to get together in the first place. Shoto owes a lot to AU and that includes that, too.
But. It's true. Villains are definitely their outlet. Both of them and thankfully right in that moment neither had to worry about that. Bakugo might a little since he's still at work, but Shoto is free to be a man thinking about all the fun things he wants to do to Bakugo as he is carrying out bags from the store.
Shoto by no means meant the event. Well, yes, but not in the least this time. He's opening the trunk and putting the bags in by the time he's asked.]
I wasn't actually talking about practicing. I was in the grocery line, I meant I don't want to end up touching myself when you're a perfectly acceptable partner.
[Yep super sexy. Here's the sound of the trunk as he closes it and fiddles with the keys again to open the door.]
[Bakugo's more stubborn than Shoto more often, not bending when it comes to going on outings with their friends (though he's gone to more than he would've at the start of his first year in U.A.) or when it comes to doing PR business for the agency. But he's come to learn how to navigate Shoto's waters as well as the other boy's navigated his own. Surprise surprise what comes with sticking around someone long enough to learn their personality. Or at least adjust to it once you come to know it.
He's still over here silently grumbling he can't think as much about his boyfriend and his stupid sexy face. Has to focus on the mission ahead of him, even if that mission is sitting in the back of the truck, keeping an eye on the wares being delivered with the rest of the group. One more stop and then they can be on their way home.
They're only a few minutes away from the drop point anyways. Bakugo's wandering his mind off to the PR event, figuring what he's going to wear and where he's going to be. How to meet Shoto between showings... what they'll do. Fuck.]
Why the fuck do you wanna touch yourself when I'm on my way there?! Have some damn patience!
[Says one of the most impatient people on the face of the planet. And now Bakugo's thinking about his boyfriend touching himself in the car and fuuuck it's making some problems!]
[This is also a truth, Bakugo has been obstinate for as long as Shoto has known him. Another endearing factor when a person can realize why. But going out with their friends or going out in general is something that Shoto enjoys openly where Bakugo has a different approach. Both of their ways of doing things can cause problems, but they always find a way.
Much like right then. Maybe not an earth shattering problem, but both are definitely thinking of the other and exactly just what they wish they were doing instead. The tonal understanding of what Shoto is saying in full, bluntly put, is somewhat amusing and arousing to him at the same time. The keys are put in the ignition but the car isn't turned over, instead, he replies very casually.]
Mm? Wasn't it just you telling me not to let myself be pushed around? Or what else is it you say? "Don't tell me what to do?"
[Finding a way. That's what makes them work well together, no trying to force the other to bend into a specific path or become a person they're not. What's comfortable for them is important, though being able to adjust on occasion to help the other makes it far more flexible. Easier to keep it up without making issues. Bakugou understands things about Shoto and opts not to bother him about some of those aspects he might otherwise bitch about.
This? Yeah this isn't a "problem" at all, more an annoyance Bakugo wants to grab and throttle a few times. Probably against the wall, and with a few less articles of clothing. And by "throttle" he means more "grind against and make out with" until Shoto's gasping for breath. Bakugo's glad no one else is around to listen to him growl at his boyfriend on the phone about sexual things. That casual tone earns another glare. Fucking hell...]
Don't make me hang up on you... I'm not getting a boner in a supply truck, dammit.
[They're both just destined to go together in hero life and in their daily life, Shoto wouldn't have it any other way anymore. While they're probably a long way off thinking of anything paper signing wise aside maybe a lease, he most certainly sees Bakugo in the rest of his life, too.
Not to mention the immediate part of his life that he's got Bakugo on the other end of the phone talking about boners. Yep. Healthy relationship right here, y'know. Kinda, okay not at all wherein Shoto can't help but poke a little bit.]
Don't hang up.
[Shoto looks around him to see if he can see anyone in the immediate area.]
How long until you're out of the truck and able to get here to the market? Without your quirk.
[Don't give him that destiny crap! It's his own damn decision to do his life! And he chooses to go with Shoto because he fucking loves that half-n-half bastard and no one's gonna tell him that was "fate" any fucking day! The future's definitely going to have more of this dumbass in it and Bakugo's fine with that.
Happy for it, even if he won't say it immediately. Mostly because he's in the back of a supply truck, guarding the wares, and talking about fucking boners on the phone with his boyfriend who's out on a damn grocery run. What a life he leads. Bakugo growls right into the phone receiver.]
Don't order me around.
[While he follows orders and doesn't hang up. No one's in the immediate area because Shoto's in his car? Bakugo jerks his phone to the side and looks at it with a angry "the fuck?" expression.]
I'm on a delivery mission! It's gonna be another fucking hour or so!
[Arrive and deliver the goods, then, if nothing happens, he can catch a bus or something and get to the market. Get there faster if he used his Quirk, but...]
[Then Bakugo can believe in anything else, but the way Shoto feels he can't help believing otherwise. Wow something they don't agree on? That's new. As long as the outcome is them staying in one another's lives, Shoto won't ever complain.
Bakugo doesn't have to say it for the other man to know that he's happy. If he weren't there would be no Bakugo in Shoto's life, he'd be off elsewhere with as little contact or as much contact as he felt like having. No, he knows. Even if he's being growled to. It almost makes him smile, but it most certainly makes him happy.
An hour won't do, he'll have to calm himself down and wait for Bakugo to get home. Which, might just be better... Considering that he'll have to wait that entire time and be anticipating the arrival of his lover to their house.]
Alright, alright. I'll behave.
[For now. Shoto leans forward, trying to flex out his current situation and starts the car.]
Get home when you can. You can tell me all about your day.
[Amazing. They've been so streamlined in their way of thinking until this point. The sarcasm is real. Bakugo wouldn't break up with Shoto over a damn disagreement, especially not one over something as stupid as fate.
Not his fault he's stuck on this stupid truck. The final shipping order sits across from him in all its shrink-wrapped glory and he kind of wants to kick it for being the interruption to his time with Shoto. At least he gets to hear his voice on the phone. And if they really wanted to... things could get... heated with just that.
But Dynamight would rather not end up with a mess on top of a damn boner. Guess he's going to have to wait the hour and earn Shoto's happy smile when he gets back home.]
You don't have to. No one's in the fucking car to see.
[Whether that's encouragement for Shoto to do something naughty in the car or not, it's up to him to figure out. Bakugo glances up at the truck wall again. Nope, still trundling along.]
Gonna leave me time to? Hard to talk around your mouth.
[Or whatever else he happens to have shoved into his own.]
[Too bad Shoto is hard to get rid of no matter what happens. It'd be a long cold day in... anywhere Shoto could make it a long cold day that he'd accept Bakugo just throwing down the gauntlet like that. Not after everything.
It's his fault though that he's stuck on a stupid truck. Imagine going to work?? Who does that? Not Shoto, instead he's sitting in a car, in the parking lot contemplating all the things he wants to do to the body attached to that voice on the other end of the phone. All of that and not mention a word of it to Bakugo who has already said he's trying not to make things awkward for himself at wor-- ...Ohhh..]
No... I don't.
[The tone of Shoto's voice is an almost eureka moment. There's an easy way to find out if it's encouragement or if it's just voicing an opinion. ...Or there would have to be if Bakugo weren't talking about things Shoto isn't going to be able to ignore that easily.]
That depends. Are you going to hang up on me if I tell you?
[There's nothing he can do about Bakugo's boner problems at the moment if Bakugo intends to listen while he manifestly tries to discern and perhaps even get off in the car.]
[Bakugo's stubborn and it's very rare that he'll give up on something cause he feels like it's "not working" or some shit like that. He stuck with tutoring Kirishima and hell if that'd been an easy process! Giving up on Shoto, the guy he loves? No fucking way in hell.
HE GOES TO WORK AND HE'S NOT BITCHING ABOUT IT!! Just irritated it's currently delaying him from going home to see his damn boyfriend who's spent the last several minutes being a horndog pain in the ass over the phone. And probably just shot himself in the foot by more or less tempting Shoto into being naughty in the car. Wait... he's still in the parking lot. Fuck, no he should wait until he gets back home to do it!]
Yeah but you're in the damn public parking lot!
[Don't "eureka" this shit! You're supposed to be the calm and logical one with the formal side! And yet he's over there entertaining the idea and Bakugo's trapped between wanting to get off to his boyfriend getting off over the phone in their car... or not having to deal with making a fucking mess in his pants. Any more a mess that's already made a mess, that is.]
I should. Hell if I know what you've got melting in the fucking back seat...
[Which probably shouldn't have sounded as growlingly-sultry as it does, but guess fucking what.]
[At least there's that and in return he has someone as loyal as himself to trust won't leave his side. Metaphorically since physically there are times they have to leave one another. One such time being times like this, obviously.
The gun is definitely pointed downward and the smoke is telling, because yes. Yes he did shoot himself in the foot over that.]
I'm alone.
[OR so he hopes, ro thinks at least. There's no one he can see and any of the cameras aren't in this section of the parkinglot so...]
Not much, there are a couple frozen items but nothing I'll mourn. Nothing that I can't freeze myself. Things that are a side thought along the more pressing one of wishing you weren't working.
[Loyal is a good word to describe Shoto. For as weird as the guy can be sometimes, he's someone Katuski trusts almost implicitly. It's what makes their separations a lot easier to bear, since he knows the other hero can take care of himself and won't be wandering off to some other guy.
Pfft, not gonna help him with his own self-inflicted injury. Bakugo's not that nice. But he's likely not making things any easier for either of them by still pushing this along.]
I know that!
[He better be. Katsuki's alone as well, left in the back of the truck with the remaining delivery, but that doesn't mean he should be jerking off to his boyfriend and losing track of his surroundings. Fuck knows a second or two can turn ugly out on the roads.
Right, as obvious as it is, there are times Bakugo's an idiot and forgets his boyfriend can freeze their groceries without a problem. RIP his excuse.]
Well I am working and I won't be home for at least another hour and a half.
[Wandering isn't a problem when he gets everything he needs and more right there. Even if Bakugo put a hard stop on some aspects of their relationship, he still wouldn't want to go. While the physical is great, it's how he's made to feel that keeps him there among other things.
Like right that moment if Bakugo hung up, Shoto would've just gone home. And in his defense, Shoto is actually talking about them jerking off in public together over the phone. He's allowed a slipup in remembering his boyfriend's quirk. There's a shift of fabric sound and Shoto's settling his jacket aside on the seat.]
Then tell me to stop, or you can listen and anticipate. The thought of you is enough at times.
[Bakugo knows he can't give Shoto "everything" he could possibly need, but he tries to give him as much as he can, even if some of those things are rare or take a lot of work to wrangle out of him. Not like he doesn't have struggles with Shoto as well. But as frustrating as they are, it reminds him more of why he loves the idiot. Shoto can reach emotions and places inside him, comfortably, that practically no others can.
Yeah, he should've just hung up. Let Shoto go home and focused his own self on the task at hand. But unfortunately, he left himself on the line and now he's getting the hear the telltale rustle of cloth and is cursing himself for his own negligence. Because there's no going back once Shoto starts taking his stupid clothes off.]
Dammit, Half-n-Half... [There's a soft rustle and clink of a belt on the other side.]
[There's nothing worth having that isn't hard worked for. Including where Bakugo is concerned, even if there's times that he doesn't really feel he's worked hard enough. He'll take what he can get and thankfuly that's Bakugo's heart. His trust. Things that Shoto won't easily want to ever lose.
His love for Bakugo aside, it's only overshadowed by his physical attraction. Both of them, by trade are used to some adrenlyin and this is no different. Shoto's right hand reaches out to further add to the tint of the windows with a soft frost around them when he hears the resignation in Bakugo's voice and the unmistakable sound of his belt.
He win's again.]
We'll be quick.
[Mainly for Bakugo's needs, not Shoto's needs who is already unzipping with one hand while the other one is reaching fingers inside his pants to the tune of a small, stunted grasp in Bakugo's ear.]

Date: 4/28/22 05:06 (UTC)No! It's stuff he thinks Bakugo will like, it's coming home with him. Dragon fruit has to be spicy, right? Dragons breath fire.]
If they do, we'll know tomorrow. If not, I will request it as long as it doesn't interfere with your tasks. Working with you is just as exciting as hearing about your day.
[The day they get to go into the office together is going to be the most stressful and the most invigorating day to that date. It's a dream and they've already made a few of their dreams realities in the world they're living in and this would be no different. Just that they had to wait for a while, longer than maybe they'd like, but at least half of them were happy in their placements.]
Together? Could I come sit with you then?
[They could be married for ten years and Shoto would've asked him the same question. But. Take solace in the following:]
I'm going to. I'm going to sit with you if I see you.
[IT'S A GOOD SHIRT. WEAR IT. As always, Bakugo will win the day no matter what it is, in small or large victories. Dynamight is no one to be trifled with, even by someone as powerful as Shoto.]
Just a regular one. Signing things, talking with people.
[He's already into the next area, happily picking out the things on Bakugo's list and maybe some things that he wants to try on his own, too. You know, things he'll regret like spiced milk. What is that? No one knows. But Shoto's going to.]
Having you there would be an interesting pop up.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO FUCKING ASK ME THAT!! WE'RE DATING!! YOU BETTER FUCKING SIT NEXT TO ME!!
[Yeah well, too bad he's yelling into the phone while Shoto's making peace with his previous question. They get along the same path, just at very different speeds and volumes. What a pair. As for marriage... likely going to happen in the future. It's going to be a crazy wedding, particularly due to their respective parents.
NO! HE JUST FUCKING MIGHT! SHUT UP! And he's going to win. That's what heroes do. No matter what challenge faces them/ From the largest obstacles to the smallest interruptions.]
Ugh, great. Gonna stay in the crowd in fucking disguise.
[Because he doesn't want to do shit like signing things or talking to people. Boring, annoying, pisses him off and he hardly ever stays the full time, if he even bothers to acquiesce to the appearance in the first place.
Lucky for Shoto, Bakugo can use spiced milk easily. Get it.]
You better make it worth my while if I show myself there...
no subject
Date: 4/29/22 03:22 (UTC)I'll do it in the car. My schedule is more PR than it is anything else lately. I understand the necessity but I don't like not being out there.
[That agency is a nice legacy they can leave for future generations when they have no choice but to both retire. Even then retirement probably looks like going in and being grumpy and old to run it until their dying day.]
Don't yell. You'll give away your position.
[Not 'my poor ear', just that he's worried Bakugo will give himself away at the wrong time. Should they even be on the phone? Probably not, but he misses his boyfriend greatly and not to mention that said wedding is best just settled to eloping. He just hopes that their mothers get along. His mother could use more friends like Bakugo's mom.
There's a tiny smirk to the 'oh great'. Yeah, Shoto feels that way too sometimes. But even more that Bakugo is going to rope himself into it because he's going to be there. But...
He recognizes that tone in Bakugo's voice and the words themselves of course.]
Oh?
[Waiting in the line might not be the best place for the conversation but here we are. Also impulse buys are probably not the best to leave Shoto around anyway, so it's a good distraction.]
Right there? I get fifteen minute breaks.
no subject
Date: 4/29/22 05:57 (UTC)Fucking hate that PR crap.
[Always says that. Bakugo will make some appearances and it's usually as intense and rough as it's always been, though there's truth to his words and he's not afraid to say or point out tough things even when it'd be more tactful not to. Shit needs to be said and noticed or it'll wind up making trouble in the future.
That's what he's gunning for! A grumpy old coot who can still kick ass and take down even the young shitheads that think they can overpower Dynamight in his older age. And damn right he's gonna wanna make sure their agency stays strong.]
I'm not on a fucking stealth mission!
[Though that's still said quieter than before. (Bakugo wouldn't think Shoto's mom needed a friend like his mom, cause his mom can be loud and obnoxious. ... Yeah but to WHOM is she loud and obnoxious too, Bakugo?) Either way, maybe they shouldn't be on the phone, but he doesn't care. He wants to talk to Shoto for a bit. Hasn't seen his boyfriend in a while.]
I'll be within fifteen minutes of you, dammit. [Just not near the front. Probably near the back where he can hang out clandestine and not draw attention. Then go meet Shoto off stage or whatever during his breaks.] Just give me the details.
no subject
Date: 4/30/22 05:55 (UTC)Me too. It's necessary or I wouldn't. Sometimes I think you're better at it than I am.
[Bakugo has strong feelings about it and that's fine by Shoto. Get those angry feelings out. It just means that he gets less of the angry when he gets ho-- well no he doesn't. He just gets renewed uppity behaviour otherwise. Which is just as welcome, really.
Grumpy old man that he'd love even to that day. The same kind of grumpy young man he's dealing with right now, even if quieter, telling him he's not on a stealth mission. But again it's that tone and the idea he's going to be right there at the meet and greet event.]
Good. That means you won't mind meeting me on my breaks covertly in whatever room it is they've set up for me.
no subject
Date: 4/30/22 19:25 (UTC)Of course I'm better at it cause I don't fucking put up with it!
[Backwards way of looking at it, but it mostly means the blonde's far more willing to tell someone to shut up or refuse to do something he doesn't want to do. Then again, he has a lot more "don't want to do that" than Shoto does. Meaning the other boy's more often chosen for PR cause he's gentler, nicer, and apparently there's a war among their fanbase as to who's hotter.
He's not on a stealth mission, per say, but probably not in a place where he should be yelling n his phone either. After all, this had been texting initially. It's easier to talk since Shoto's shopping... and Bakugo misses his voice, despite reading all his texts in his boyfriend's voice in his head.]
That's the general idea, Half-n-Half.
no subject
Date: 5/6/22 19:08 (UTC)for more than just food. Sometimes it happens. At least Bakugo isn't a wimp and that's something that his partner appreciates greatly. Trying new things is exciting. Sometimes not tasty, but exciting.]Maybe that's what I should do, too.
[Can anyone imagine Shoto being anything but compliant when it isn't something he stringently stands against? Or feels he should? Hm. He used to but not anymore. Maybe it's time to return back to those days. Like the water bill. He can put his foot down on that.
Granted it's easier for them both. Shoto doesn't exactly hate hearing Bakugo's voice and knowing he's alright, either. It's not that he knows where Bakugo is and certainly not in time to go 'save' him (not that he'd likely need it) but sometimes it drives him insane to know he's not able to always be there to help. Luckily the prospect of Bakugo understanding he's going to get himself defiled between signings is definitely taking up his mind instead.
The store probably isn't the best place for Shoto to be thinking about it. But. He'll live.]
Now I'm looking forward to the event even more. I wonder if we can find someone with a time travelling quirk. Or maybe you can help me practice for the event when we get home.
[And that's all he's saying since he's standing in public. The last thing he needs is someone overhearing him talking about what he will or won't be doing sexually to someone in or out of events.]
It sounds like everything is going according to mission?
no subject
Date: 5/9/22 00:17 (UTC)You got the guts for it?
[Bakugo doubts it. Shoto's general kindness and his desire to meet people and expand those social paths once so closed off to him aren't going to stand by and watch him be a conscious dick to other people like Bakugo can be. Yeah yeah, fuck off about the damn water bill.
The day he needs Shoto to come "save" him will be the day he starts ranting about shit at home. (Actually, Shoto's saved him and protected him a number of times during their battles together; Dynamight's not perfect despite his desire to appear so. They work the best as a team for a reason. Covering each other's blind spots.) As for getting defiled between his boyfriend's signings and shit... well...
Maybe you should stop handling the cucumber so familiarly, Shoto. And Bakugo needs to stop thinking about a possible quickie during his mission.]
If someone ever had a time traveling Quirk, the world would start fighting over them. Practicing is the more logical option, Half-n-Half.
[Not probable, but still logical.]
Yeah. One more delivery and we should be done and heading back.
no subject
Date: 5/9/22 15:56 (UTC)Yes. I could be stringent if I wanted to. I just don't see the need sometimes.
[Which is, yep, that doubt coming to fruition. Shoto definitely does want to meet, see and talk to people but he also doesn't want to do that when he could be home with Bakugo. Or even doing things like this, just menial tasks that Bakugo himself doesn't have to do if he does them for him while he's busy. It's not taking it from his lover it's just taking it in the stead of him for efficiency sake.
They really are a good team and while they match well with a few other heroes, or even larger groups, them together is usually enough. Then again, them together is why he's handling things like this. It's not his fault. It's his fault... he shouldn't have been implying things while he was out. Instead he lets the lady ring him through and pays sometime during their conversation.]
I hope so, I don't want to practice on my own even if you've given me the drive to do so.
[Being in public sucks. They might have to make a new rule not to talk until missions are over if this keeps up. ...or maybe talk more during missions who knows.]
no subject
Date: 5/9/22 22:32 (UTC)[And rash despite his normally calm state. Those differences are something Bakugo finds attractive. From how someone as unassuming as Shoto can come a massive torrent of ice or flames. Thinking the other hero wasn't passionate simply because he's quiet and thoughtful was a big fucking mistake. He's seen just how intense Shoto can get.
He's not going to find Bakugo telling him to go out and meet other people when he could be home with him. Shoto's not exactly "more" social than the explosive blonde; he's simply more willing to accept invites to social things than Bakugo.
Living together had been a huge adjusted for them. They didn't have an entire dormitory and 18 other people between them to distract or cover up their differences. Those menial tasks had quickly turned into a "my way your way" clash, from where to put the recycle bin to who's in charge of the dishes. Did they want to have set chores on a schedule or do things as they arose in front of whoever was in the apartment at the time.
Yet despite all that, their teamwork and relationship saw it through. Not without some fights and bumps along the way. A few villains got to be on the tail end of the occasional argument, when Bakugo came at them full of pent-up frustration. HE wasn't going to be the idiot who thought he could push Shoto around. Didn't mean the blonde got to avoid the occasional apology to his boyfriend. Guilty and he knew it, so... at least he's mature enough to own up the times he fucked up.
Ah shit, don't go talking about practicing on your own!! He KNOWS Shoto means the event, from speech to presentation, but his BRAIN immediately goes to their planned intermissions... Fucking hell.]
Practice what...?
[Gonna possibly really screw himself with this question.]
no subject
Date: 5/11/22 03:24 (UTC)[There are things that Shoto won't move or budge on, but there are things he knows he has to make concessions for as well. Their disagreements were always just that, disagreements that they worked out somehow. That icy/fiery personality isn't without it's faults but Bakugo navigates those waters just as well. Working well in school and in the field are two things that probably saved both of them and then again is probably some of the reason that they were able to get together in the first place. Shoto owes a lot to AU and that includes that, too.
But. It's true. Villains are definitely their outlet. Both of them and thankfully right in that moment neither had to worry about that. Bakugo might a little since he's still at work, but Shoto is free to be a man thinking about all the fun things he wants to do to Bakugo as he is carrying out bags from the store.
Shoto by no means meant the event. Well, yes, but not in the least this time. He's opening the trunk and putting the bags in by the time he's asked.]
I wasn't actually talking about practicing. I was in the grocery line, I meant I don't want to end up touching myself when you're a perfectly acceptable partner.
[Yep super sexy. Here's the sound of the trunk as he closes it and fiddles with the keys again to open the door.]
no subject
Date: 5/11/22 16:22 (UTC)[Bakugo's more stubborn than Shoto more often, not bending when it comes to going on outings with their friends (though he's gone to more than he would've at the start of his first year in U.A.) or when it comes to doing PR business for the agency. But he's come to learn how to navigate Shoto's waters as well as the other boy's navigated his own. Surprise surprise what comes with sticking around someone long enough to learn their personality. Or at least adjust to it once you come to know it.
He's still over here silently grumbling he can't think as much about his boyfriend and his stupid sexy face. Has to focus on the mission ahead of him, even if that mission is sitting in the back of the truck, keeping an eye on the wares being delivered with the rest of the group. One more stop and then they can be on their way home.
They're only a few minutes away from the drop point anyways. Bakugo's wandering his mind off to the PR event, figuring what he's going to wear and where he's going to be. How to meet Shoto between showings... what they'll do. Fuck.]
Why the fuck do you wanna touch yourself when I'm on my way there?! Have some damn patience!
[Says one of the most impatient people on the face of the planet. And now Bakugo's thinking about his boyfriend touching himself in the car and fuuuck it's making some problems!]
no subject
Date: 5/11/22 22:51 (UTC)Much like right then. Maybe not an earth shattering problem, but both are definitely thinking of the other and exactly just what they wish they were doing instead. The tonal understanding of what Shoto is saying in full, bluntly put, is somewhat amusing and arousing to him at the same time. The keys are put in the ignition but the car isn't turned over, instead, he replies very casually.]
Mm? Wasn't it just you telling me not to let myself be pushed around? Or what else is it you say? "Don't tell me what to do?"
no subject
Date: 5/11/22 23:29 (UTC)This? Yeah this isn't a "problem" at all, more an annoyance Bakugo wants to grab and throttle a few times. Probably against the wall, and with a few less articles of clothing. And by "throttle" he means more "grind against and make out with" until Shoto's gasping for breath. Bakugo's glad no one else is around to listen to him growl at his boyfriend on the phone about sexual things. That casual tone earns another glare. Fucking hell...]
Don't make me hang up on you... I'm not getting a boner in a supply truck, dammit.
no subject
Date: 5/15/22 05:35 (UTC)Not to mention the immediate part of his life that he's got Bakugo on the other end of the phone talking about boners. Yep. Healthy relationship right here, y'know. Kinda, okay not at all wherein Shoto can't help but poke a little bit.]
Don't hang up.
[Shoto looks around him to see if he can see anyone in the immediate area.]
How long until you're out of the truck and able to get here to the market? Without your quirk.
no subject
Date: 5/15/22 17:58 (UTC)Happy for it, even if he won't say it immediately. Mostly because he's in the back of a supply truck, guarding the wares, and talking about fucking boners on the phone with his boyfriend who's out on a damn grocery run. What a life he leads. Bakugo growls right into the phone receiver.]
Don't order me around.
[While he follows orders and doesn't hang up. No one's in the immediate area because Shoto's in his car? Bakugo jerks his phone to the side and looks at it with a angry "the fuck?" expression.]
I'm on a delivery mission! It's gonna be another fucking hour or so!
[Arrive and deliver the goods, then, if nothing happens, he can catch a bus or something and get to the market. Get there faster if he used his Quirk, but...]
no subject
Date: 5/16/22 02:56 (UTC)Bakugo doesn't have to say it for the other man to know that he's happy. If he weren't there would be no Bakugo in Shoto's life, he'd be off elsewhere with as little contact or as much contact as he felt like having. No, he knows. Even if he's being growled to. It almost makes him smile, but it most certainly makes him happy.
An hour won't do, he'll have to calm himself down and wait for Bakugo to get home. Which, might just be better... Considering that he'll have to wait that entire time and be anticipating the arrival of his lover to their house.]
Alright, alright. I'll behave.
[For now. Shoto leans forward, trying to flex out his current situation and starts the car.]
Get home when you can. You can tell me all about your day.
[After being bent over every piece of furniture.]
no subject
Date: 5/16/22 03:11 (UTC)Not his fault he's stuck on this stupid truck. The final shipping order sits across from him in all its shrink-wrapped glory and he kind of wants to kick it for being the interruption to his time with Shoto. At least he gets to hear his voice on the phone. And if they really wanted to... things could get... heated with just that.
But Dynamight would rather not end up with a mess on top of a damn boner. Guess he's going to have to wait the hour and earn Shoto's happy smile when he gets back home.]
You don't have to. No one's in the fucking car to see.
[Whether that's encouragement for Shoto to do something naughty in the car or not, it's up to him to figure out. Bakugo glances up at the truck wall again. Nope, still trundling along.]
Gonna leave me time to? Hard to talk around your mouth.
[Or whatever else he happens to have shoved into his own.]
no subject
Date: 5/16/22 04:15 (UTC)It's his fault though that he's stuck on a stupid truck. Imagine going to work?? Who does that? Not Shoto, instead he's sitting in a car, in the parking lot contemplating all the things he wants to do to the body attached to that voice on the other end of the phone. All of that and not mention a word of it to Bakugo who has already said he's trying not to make things awkward for himself at wor-- ...Ohhh..]
No... I don't.
[The tone of Shoto's voice is an almost eureka moment. There's an easy way to find out if it's encouragement or if it's just voicing an opinion. ...Or there would have to be if Bakugo weren't talking about things Shoto isn't going to be able to ignore that easily.]
That depends. Are you going to hang up on me if I tell you?
[There's nothing he can do about Bakugo's boner problems at the moment if Bakugo intends to listen while he manifestly tries to discern and perhaps even get off in the car.]
no subject
Date: 5/16/22 04:43 (UTC)HE GOES TO WORK AND HE'S NOT BITCHING ABOUT IT!! Just irritated it's currently delaying him from going home to see his damn boyfriend who's spent the last several minutes being a horndog pain in the ass over the phone. And probably just shot himself in the foot by more or less tempting Shoto into being naughty in the car. Wait... he's still in the parking lot. Fuck, no he should wait until he gets back home to do it!]
Yeah but you're in the damn public parking lot!
[Don't "eureka" this shit! You're supposed to be the calm and logical one with the formal side! And yet he's over there entertaining the idea and Bakugo's trapped between wanting to get off to his boyfriend getting off over the phone in their car... or not having to deal with making a fucking mess in his pants. Any more a mess that's already made a mess, that is.]
I should. Hell if I know what you've got melting in the fucking back seat...
[Which probably shouldn't have sounded as growlingly-sultry as it does, but guess fucking what.]
no subject
Date: 5/21/22 10:06 (UTC)The gun is definitely pointed downward and the smoke is telling, because yes. Yes he did shoot himself in the foot over that.]
I'm alone.
[OR so he hopes, ro thinks at least. There's no one he can see and any of the cameras aren't in this section of the parkinglot so...]
Not much, there are a couple frozen items but nothing I'll mourn. Nothing that I can't freeze myself. Things that are a side thought along the more pressing one of wishing you weren't working.
no subject
Date: 5/21/22 17:42 (UTC)Pfft, not gonna help him with his own self-inflicted injury. Bakugo's not that nice. But he's likely not making things any easier for either of them by still pushing this along.]
I know that!
[He better be. Katsuki's alone as well, left in the back of the truck with the remaining delivery, but that doesn't mean he should be jerking off to his boyfriend and losing track of his surroundings. Fuck knows a second or two can turn ugly out on the roads.
Right, as obvious as it is, there are times Bakugo's an idiot and forgets his boyfriend can freeze their groceries without a problem. RIP his excuse.]
Well I am working and I won't be home for at least another hour and a half.
[And he's half hard in his fucking costume.]
no subject
Date: 5/21/22 21:14 (UTC)Like right that moment if Bakugo hung up, Shoto would've just gone home. And in his defense, Shoto is actually talking about them jerking off in public together over the phone. He's allowed a slipup in remembering his boyfriend's quirk. There's a shift of fabric sound and Shoto's settling his jacket aside on the seat.]
Then tell me to stop, or you can listen and anticipate. The thought of you is enough at times.
no subject
Date: 5/22/22 00:03 (UTC)Yeah, he should've just hung up. Let Shoto go home and focused his own self on the task at hand. But unfortunately, he left himself on the line and now he's getting the hear the telltale rustle of cloth and is cursing himself for his own negligence. Because there's no going back once Shoto starts taking his stupid clothes off.]
Dammit, Half-n-Half... [There's a soft rustle and clink of a belt on the other side.]
no subject
Date: 5/22/22 02:26 (UTC)His love for Bakugo aside, it's only overshadowed by his physical attraction. Both of them, by trade are used to some adrenlyin and this is no different. Shoto's right hand reaches out to further add to the tint of the windows with a soft frost around them when he hears the resignation in Bakugo's voice and the unmistakable sound of his belt.
He win's again.]
We'll be quick.
[Mainly for Bakugo's needs, not Shoto's needs who is already unzipping with one hand while the other one is reaching fingers inside his pants to the tune of a small, stunted grasp in Bakugo's ear.]
I won't promise you I won't be imagining you.
