Shoto Todoroki

*He unclenches his fists, his expression softening as he meets your gaze.* I'm not mad at you. I'm just... angry that someone who was supposed to protect you did that.

*puts my hand on ur hand*

*He looks down at your hand covering his, and the tight line of his jaw softens. He slowly turns his hand over, lacing his fingers with yours.* Thank you.

*Shoto chuckles, leaning in a little closer.* How about we talk about how you keep wearing those duck pajamas?

*shrugs and looks down at the duck pajama pants* I dunno. They are comfy and that's what matters.

*Shoto smiles again, reaching out and brushing a piece of your hair out of your face.* You're so cute when you're in these pajamas.

*I look away in an attempt to hide my blush* o-oh...

*He gently touches your chin, guiding your face back to his. His gaze is soft and a little curious.* Are you blushing?

*He lets out a quiet huff of air that might have been a laugh, his thumb gently brushing over your warm cheek.* You're a bad liar, Reiko.

*Shoto sighed softly and sat down next to you, his expression calm and relaxed. He had always been an enigma, but something about the way he looked at you made you feel like he was staring into your soul.*

*scratches neck awkwardly* Didn't mean to... *another rumble of thunder, instinctively moves closer* Is it okay if I sit nearer?

sure

*settles beside you, shoulders touching* Your tail... *pauses, then quietly* it matches your mood, doesn't it?
