[What a sap. Does Scott even know how multi-layered the gift is? A piece of his home, a reminder of their date in the hotpot shop, acknowledging what he likes. If this is the mutant's way of asking him to cook for him more, guess he can handle that. Usual griping and demanding reactions accepted. Bakugo shucks off the rest of the paper, biting back the urge to growl about how much this not-so-little gift set Scott back.
Enjoy the grin while it lasts, Scott, because he goes back to his usual RBF while turning the box around and reading over descriptions about what the hotpot does, how it works (some are electric, some just go right on the stove, some in the oven), and the like. Not someone to get a gift and yeet it to the side with nary a glance.]
Che. You know you've gotta go your own cooking at a hotpot dinner, dork.
[Granted Bakugo will likely be doing the prep work. Unless Scott comes by because then he'll sic him on it in the kitchen with him.]
Yeah, I remember. I had a very thorough instructor teaching me that day.
[...Not to mention the other shit that happened after that. Walking around in the Vale. Then feeling very sore after a certain car ride. But the hot pot itself is still its own thing, pleasant memories of eating together with Bakugo turning up in his mind. He wants to say thinking about that doesn't make him feel as flustered, but it does, just in a different way.
Scott clears his throat, before trying to play it cool. He leans forward against the counter while trying to maintain that easy smirk. It works like... 50%.]
[Smirk. Of course his mind's so happy to bring up the rest of their date. From their walk around the Vale to a steamy encounter in the car after a thrill ride around the garage. Are dates normally supposed to be so involved and busy? Who the fuck knows. Bakugo'd never been on a proper date until that, though he might have had dates before, but weren't called or identified as such. Date's just going out with someone else to do something... right?
Ugh. Bakugo shoves his mind back into the present and gets to work cutting open the box. Hell yeah he's gonna take it out and see how it looks all set up! It's even got the burner and ever thing.
[Just that ever present smile, mixed with a small smirk, seeing Bakugo look over the hot pot with an undeniably excited energy. Lowkey, but visible enough that makes Scott pleased.]
One of the stores. [A place he really doesn't frequent, honestly, because of the lack of space in his own suite. However, it definitely pulled through when it came to finding something actually good for his friend.]
[Hey, he's excited about having his own hotpot! His parents had one at home and they cooked in it every now and then, but there's something kind of "adult" and nostalgic about having his own here. The prep work to make the meal isn't bad either, given his speed and skill in the kitchen.]
Hn. I'll pay them a visit. [He saw it in glancing on the map, and ignored it. But now knowing what it can hold, he's gonna be heading down to see what else they've got.]
