When I want to.

[Bakugou's words are less grumpy that time, more grumbled because he's suddenly got Manjoume right next to him with his hand in his, and it's giving him a lot of reminders to their time on the roof. Kissing, resting, sitting on each other, all that intimate stuff. He never really put much thought into dating or having a boyfriend, always focusing on his studies, training, and heroics. But here he is, getting ready to go on a date with Manjoume Jun.

The way those fingers wrap around his hand gives a sensation of possessiveness that Bakugou can't tell himself he doesn't like. It feels nice. Maybe not so much the dragging, but he picks up his pace so Manjoume doesn't get to haul him around the entire time. Sheesh, what an eager guy.]

Popcorn. [If they're going for the whole movie experience, sharing a bag of popcorn has to happen! Damn American tradition.] Salted or not?

[And here's to whether or not the ticket teller recognizes the famous duelist and hero...]

[thundercrashes]

[The ticket seller initially doesn't seem to recognize them, clearly a retail worker going through the motions as they ring up the ticket prices and print them out. Only once they are handing them over does the ticket seller finally look at their faces and pause, making the familar face of recognition and like they want to say something... but Manjoume doesn't give them the chance to as he takes the tickets from their hand and pulls Bakugou along right past them with his other hand so that they can go to the concession stand to get their popcorn.]

Salted is fine with me, though we'll definitely need to get some drinks with it too.

[The concession stand employee seems to recognize them right away though, or at least Manjoume first--since Bakugou's not in hero costume, maybe they haven't recognized him just yet too, while unfortunately Manjoume by comparison... well, even with his casual attire, he normally doesn't cover his face with a domino mask or anything like that, so it seems he's the first of the two the employee fixates on.]

"Hey, wait, aren't you that Lightning guy!? The one that used those Ojamas in the recent tournament, right? That was pretty funny, a friend of mine and I were laughing when we saw those things appear on the field while watching the tournament on tv..."

[Manjoume's eye twitches in response to this, but somehow manages to keep his tone even, though he does quickly correct--]

It's "Manjoume Thunder", actually.

[blastedass]

[Bakugou's not going to complain about the lack of recognition. Despite his love for the spotlight and praise for his results, the life of a popular hero with fans and people swarming for pictures and autographs mostly pisses him off. Can't even go out on a date without people getting in his fucking business. It's why he sometimes wears baseball caps or hoodies when he goes out. Meaning when the teller does finally get that "oh mi gawd" look on their face, Bakugou's eyes narrow in preparation to tell them off.

Luckily Manjoume's quicker and pulls them away before anything can go boom. He doesn't look back, moving alongside his boyfriend with a mild glare at getting yanks like that.]

No shit. [He's not going to parch himself. Though he's back to being needled, this time by the employer recognizing Manjoume first rather than Dynamight. (Go figure.) He'll take some immature revenge by letting the duelist take the stupid attention. Even with heroes having their identities publicly known, Dynamight still opted for a mask (cause it makes him look cool, shut up). Have a snarky grin from the side, Manjoume.

Before getting pissed again.]

Oy, asshole. [Yeah, not keeping his tone even at all.] No one's paying you for a conversation. They're called monsters, not things; now take the damn order.

[Protective boom bitch, in'he...]

[thundercrashes]

[The employee jolts a little at the sudden interruption, mouth turning downward into a scowl for a moment, but otherwise begins to punch in the order on their screen finally for their popcorn and drinks.]

"Yeesh, no need to get so angry like that..."

[Manjoume, however, is grateful that Bakugou said something, even if it was rude; maybe now they can hurry this up already and get to their seats rather than potentially get side-tracked. However, as Manjoume is handing over the money once the order has finally been properly put in, the employee decides to speak again.]

"So anyway, uh... do you think I could get an autograph or something really quick? My little brother is a fan of those Ojama th--monsters of yours and likes watching them, even if they're still kind of gross and weird to look at."

[Manjoume sighs--they're not wrong, the Ojamas are ugly little shits, but it still feels like a backhanded attempt somehow at trying to get back in his good graces here as he glances at his boyfriend here.]

Are you carrying a pen on you that I can borrow?

[blastedass]

[The fuck are you scowling at him for, bastard? You're the one that stupidly called his boyfriend's ace monsters fucking things! And decidedly not doing your job at the same time. Double strike in one breath.]

You say something?

[That's a warning. Don't bitch at him for being an asshole, asshole. At least it's not said with the flames of irritation licking behind him. As the order's processed, Bakugou eases off the glowering, shifting back into his usual RBF... glowering. He twitches a brow when the employee opens his dumb mouth again.

"So anyway" he says?! What the fuck, did he not hear him?! ... Oh, an autograph. And the guy corrects himself by calling the Ojamas monsters. Guess he won't bite his head off, because even heroes like giving out autographs.

Look, the Ojamas are weird to look at. Most everyone's gonna agree on that.

He hands over a pen once Manjoume asks for one. Here. Bakugou's getting the popcorn.]

[thundercrashes]

[Thankfully for Bakugou, Manjoume doesn't allow this autograph session to drag out very long--he scrawls out a quick signature on the next piece of paper that gets shoved at him by the employee, before grabbing their drinks so that they can finally leave and head inside the theater, but not without a last word at the employee.]

There, but don't go spreading it around to the rest of your coworkers or anyone else that we're even here, we'd like to have some goddamn peace watching our movie, yeah? I can assure you that my partner here is going to explode and kick your teeth out otherwise.

[Probably not a polite PR move to threaten to unleash his boyfriend onto some employee for annoying him, but Manjoume does not particularly care today as he makes to catch up with Bakugou here.]

[blastedass]

[Bakugou would be miffed if it took Manjoume more than a second or two to sign his name. Though he's not exactly against it. Getting recognized as someone famous and exemplary is something a lot of heroes live for. Manjoume deserves his recognition. Bakugou samples the popcorn in the meantime, not adding any further outburst to avoid dragging more attention to themselves.]

Did you just threaten to fucking sic me on him?

[Enjoy that glaring stink eyes from the explosive hero when you catch up to him, Manjoume. Granted, he's not wrong; Bakugou would've gone ballistic at the guy for making them late to their movie.]

[thundercrashes]

[Manjoume just gives him a look back.]

What? I'm not wrong in saying you would probably kick his ass in that scenario, am I?

[So it's fine, he can threaten people with his cool boyfriend, right...]

[blastedass]

[Don't give him that look, you dick!]

Of course I would've! I didn't come here to get gawked at by a buncha drooling extras!

[Better keep an eye on that popcorn so he doesn't accidentally angry salt it into oceanic oblivion while raging over his shoulder.]

[thundercrashes]

Yeah, that's what I thought. So maybe cool it a bit before you end up drowning our popcorn there.

[Manjoume points to the popcorn that is currently being assalted, as it were.]

[blastedass]

Haa?! It's fine! I know what I'm doing!

[Uh... So he's quick to jerk the salt away before he can shoot it again. Tch. Maybe just going to shake the popcorn up and down a few times to distribute that more...

Thanks for the save, Manjoume/]

[thundercrashes]

[Manjoume rolls his eyes, but otherwise says nothing to contradict him since it looks like their popcorn is now no longer in danger of being more salt than popcorn. Instead, he gestures for Bakugou to follow him to the correct theater room for their movie: luckily for both of them, they've got good seats that works for having a good view of the movie that will be playing, but also some privacy rather than a spot that would involve having a bunch of other people sitting close and potentially noticing them either if any one else potentially comes in to watch this movie too.]

You remembered to turn off your phone's volume and stuff, right?

[blastedass]

[At least they make it into the theater without any further issues. Bakugou lets Manjoume go into the row first, then follows while balancing the popcorn and drinks. Good seats with good view and general privacy. It'll be less likely someone spots them in the theater like this. He settles down in the seat beside his boyfriend, then nestles the popcorn between them for easy reaching.]

I've been to the movies before. [He shoots a glare (pout) at Manjoume for even thinking he needed to ask Mr. Efficient such a question. Yeah, turned it off before he got to the theater.] Here.

[Popcorn.]

[thundercrashes]

You don't have to pout, I was just making sure.

[Yes, he is going to call that face Bakugou made a pout, not a glare, as he reaches to take a small handful of popcorn for himself. And upon eating a piece, he is once again glad he spoke up when he did earlier, otherwise this would have ended up way too salty for his liking. Thankfully, it's still edible.]

[blastedass]

I don't pout!

[And he's going to deny Manjoume's callout with force! The popcorn luckily didn't get salted to unpalatable degrees, though it probably has a bit more bite to it than most people would. Their drinks will be well worth the price. And Bakugou didn't add any pepper powder, so yeah. Fun with that.]

[thundercrashes]

Yes, you do.

[ah, the old standby counter in an argument: no u]

But it's fine, I'm used to it by now.

[blastedass]

Are you blind?! When the fuck have I ever done that?!

[denial forever. that works too.]

[thundercrashes]

Literally just a few moments ago.

[sorry, the movie still hasn't started yet, so your boyfriend can't be distracted from attempting to shoot down your denial of facts]

[blastedass]

Your bangs were in the way.

[yeah, because that's always how it happens. they both know bakugou likes manjoume's ridiculous hair. won't stop him from throwing it under the bus to get away from admitting something like this.]

[thundercrashes]

[wowwww]

Like hell they are!

[Now it's his turn to be huffy]

I can see just fine the way they are!

[blastedass]

[You're dating this.]

How many fingers am I holding up?

[🖕]

[thundercrashes]

[You are also dating this.]

Not as many as I'm holding up in response to that.

[Holding up both hands briefly for the double threat of: 🖕🖕]

[blastedass]

[Stop playing Level Up on his skills!]

You want five up there next time?

[Putting up one solid ✊ in return threat!]

[thundercrashes]

Only if I can give you double that in return.

[Putting up both ✊ ✊ of these bad boys now!!]

[blastedass]

As if you could move after I'm done with you!

[He'd be standing on his chest now if that were allowed in a theater. But it's not.]
