Yeah, of course. I mean...I couldn't forget you unless I forgot my entire life along with you.

[ That's what happens when you meet someone when you're too little to even remember. ]

From:

blastedass

I see.

[So he had a life in his head without Katsuki until Katsuki arrived, and yet he had his normal life in his head with Katsuki in his past. That's a hell of a memory shift.

Fucking magic world.]

This place could drive people nuts like that.

From:

defendure

Hm. Maybe? I just...try to keep my center. I don't try to deny those memories existing, but I keep in mind they aren't my real life. I know where I want to get back to. Remembering new things sometimes...it's weird, but it's like DLC.

[ And he's okay with it, a bit, because it's mostly useful or mundane. ]

From:

blastedass

Kind of like inhabiting someone else's life.

[Then you have to decide if you want to try and follow the life they had or stick to the person you are now. Which would be weird for anyone that knew them... like Katsuki's teachers and classmates. Well, the AU Katsuki's.

He's not a hero in this world's memories. Bleh.]

Where'd you get the idea for that breakfast bowl?

[Easier topic.]

From:

defendure

Huh...? You've made yourself that meal before, haven't you? A few times at the dorms and then here...I thought it was a meal you liked?

[ By, you know, observing in the way he has that Katsuki considers creepy. ]

I did get cupcakes like I said but you've never been huge on sweets so I wanted something you'd really like as a meal.

From:

blastedass

Don't get defensive, dammit! Never said it wasn't!

[He'd just been curious. Though probably should've known the answer already. Katsuki opens the door and looks out into the drizzle. Well it's not a full storm right now, so that's nice. this time he does have an umbrella, so they won't have to cram under one. It's a simple dark green umbrella, strong and wide.]

Hn. It was good.

From:

defendure

Oh! Okay. [ He got nervous on being asked that Katsuki didn't like it...Izuku grabs his own umbrella, though a plainer one this time. He doesn't want to risk the other getting taken when they have to stow them indoors. ]

I practiced it a few times to be sure I had it down, though it would have been better if I could've gotten the recipe from your mom.

From:

blastedass

[They're gonna get lockers so the risk of a yoinked brella won't be an issue. Katsuki opens his with a whoosh and steps out into the cool rain. Thankfully it's not a downpour and the day itself isn't intensely dark and gloomy. April showers in more true form.]

I wonder if you could've asked her. You know her, the one here, right?

From:

defendure

U-um, yes...I do...but I wasn't - I mean, I actually don't know if the mom here has the same or similar recipes?

[ His brows draw together. ]

I figured there might be minute differences I wouldn't be able to pick up on.

From:

blastedass

[Katsuki thinks back to his mother. It's... strange. Like driving down two lanes at the same time and knowing what's in both of them.

Feels like he might cross his eyes on instinct.]

I think the recipes are the same. She's not entirely different...

From:

defendure

She's...

[ Izuku thinks of it. Since they have to be different enough the characters could apply without being forced into the role... ]

...there's similarities for mine, but she's just...it's not quite the same. It's off. You know?

From:

blastedass

[Katsuki falls silent, the two memories clashing, trying to fit, but like magnets, springing apart soon enough. He growls and shoves the entire thing away.]

Which arcade do you wanna go to? The one with the roller skating rink or the second floor?

From:

defendure

Oh! I haven't been skating in ages!

[ Izuku realizes Katsuki just pulled from his memories - or research. ]

But...it is YOUR birthday, you know? You get to do what you want!

From:

blastedass

[Memories. Hell if he researched places to go on his birthday. For his birthday. Someone hoped to spend the entire day holed up and not doing anything birthday related...]

I just did. Asked you your opinion, dumbass.

[He heads towards the arcade with the roller skating rink. Hadn't been skating in a long time as well, so that's a bonus.]

From:

defendure

Oh! Well...I meant - well you know. Anyway...I actually can't even remember the last time I went rollerskating at home. Mm...maybe that gym unit in middle school...?

From:

blastedass

Is that your way of saying you're gonna fall on your face?

[Katsuki pauses in front of a gurgling gully. The street's a tiny bit flooded here from the previous harder rains...

He angles his umbrella forward to avoid catching, then jumps the watery path and lands on the other side.]

From:

defendure

I don't think it'll be that bad -

[ Izuku says, about to fall into the gully as he tries to use a Quirk he can't use. ]

From:

blastedass

Deku!

[One of those yells that's exasperated and alarmed at the same time. Katsuki ends up halfway stretched out, braced on one foot and stretching a hand out to grab Izuku by the shirt to stop him from falling into the gully.

Though now they're in some kind of weird perfect balance game... like two people in a / \ position over a gully full of water.

Fun!]

From:

defendure

[ Yeah, they look stupid right now. Izuku at least doesn't flail them in, although he looks completely abashed as he realizes what happened.

Thankfully Katsuki's reflexes are second to none. ]

Uh - [ Now how to get...out of this. ]

I'll hop and you tug?

From:

blastedass

[You look stupid! He looks... uh.. TRYING TO AVERT A MESS!! (Aka: stupid.)

Katsuki's reflexes might be amazing, but his toes aren't capable of digging into the ground like claws and the ground is pretty fucking wet right now...]

Don't decide for me! [Rawr!] On my count of three, jump towards me!

[Some things never change. It's gonna be an awkward jump attempt from this angle.]

One, two, three!

[Yank!]

From:

defendure

That's exactly what I just -

[ Why is Katsuki like this! Izuku cuts himself off before they start bickering while in this position (they can bicker AFTER, he figures) and lets Katsuki take charge.

On three, he jumps. ]

From:

blastedass

[Flashbacks to Katsuki during his rescue, yelling at his rescuers for not listening to him trying to pilot his own rescue. Go figure. His ego is a crime and it's not dead yet. Won't ever be.

Ha! Bicker when he's failed!

Katsuki hauls back when Izuku jumps, instinctively igniting his Quirk for extra oomph. It does balls due to not being in the Dodo house, but that pisses Katsuki off and the rage boost probably gives its own benefit. Over Izuku goes, clearing the gully and landing in a weird Victorian era waltz with Katsuki. One of those close-holding twists to keep center balance and stuff.

But they're over.]

Why didn't you jump the first time?! You could've cleared that easily!

From:

defendure

[ Izuku keeps hold of Katsuki's hand for a moment, mostly because he just got done being hauled over and he looks even more embarrassed. ]

I...tried to Float...

[ Just like Katsuki tried to explode on automatic, Izuku fell into a similar trap. ]

From:

blastedass

[He... should've predicted that answer. Katsuki tilts his head to the side, almost like he's thinking about his response, then snorts in annoyance. Not at Izuku, but more at the world around them.]

This fucking place...

[Case in point. He lets go of Izuku's hand after making sure the other boy's stable again. Preferably without a shoe in a puddle or something.]

Stick to the sidewalk. Lets got outta the road.

From:

defendure

Right! [ No complaints. Izuku's arms got a bit wet from the spray but he doesn't seem to mind. He does keep his eyes down more to watch his step now, though. ]

At least the plants are gonna be happy.
