[from here.]

... Please don't compare my grades to Kirishima-kun's.

[HE WORKS HARD TO GET THAT #4 SPOT, THANKS.]

Mmm. You can pick the subject.

[blastymcsplode]

No shit you're smarter than Kirishima.

I dunno. Whatever.

We could brush up on whatever.

But I'd rather not fucking study all day everyday in my free time.

What do Dekus do for fun, huh?

[herolatry]

Oh. Um. Well... these days I mostly spend my spare time training if I'm not studying...

[Seriously, when was the last time he had a spare moment to himself to do anything "for fun" since that fateful day when he met All Might??]

I used to really like running along the beach near our house, but... I guess, it's kind of difficult now, since we live in the dorms...

[blastymcsplode]

Guess I should've expected as much.

You always were a nerd.

So? Run on a different beach.

Nothing stopping you.

[herolatry]

We're not as close to the water at UA...

But I guess I could take the train on the weekends!

[There's a pause before the next text, and Deku might spot the animated "..." bubble indicating that Deku's typing something for quite a while, but when the text finally comes through, it's surprisingly short--]

What about you, Kacchan?

[blastymcsplode]

[He's just about to tell Izuku to spit it the fuck out when he finally gets the deceptively short message.]

Training.

Tutoring hair for brains.

Video games.

[herolatry]

Video games, huh...

That's nostalgic. I don't think we've played video games together since primary school...

[hardening]

[continued from here because bless you?]

Ah.. I see! So because of this, and this, you get... [He scribbles down an answer, looking over the scrawl of notes he took from Midoriya's explanation. Kirishima doesn't expect the answers to be given to him because otherwise he would have just asked to copy Midoriya's homework. (Not that he could with this special worksheet but-) This soft boy works hard at his school work, it just doesn't come easily to him.]

Right? That's the answer?

[Excitedly, Kirishima is checking over his own work while he waits for Deku's response.] It was a little hard to follow but I think I got it!

[herolatry]

[Deku takes a moment to check over the work thoroughly, then looks up at Kirishima and nods with a grin.]

Perfect score!

[hardening]

[Kirishima's eyes light up like fireworks. He is so proud of himself.]

Thank you Deku!!! Hi-five dude!

[Well, don't leave him hanging Deku.]

[herolatry]

[Kirishima gets one (1) sheepish grin and a high five.]

The rest of this chapter is all focused on understanding that formula, really. Once you've got the fundamental pattern down, it's easy to see where to apply it.

[hardening]

I didn't think I would ever understand this. [Deku you don't understand how much you've helped him and how much it means to Kirishima. Bless your big Deku heart.]

Will you check over the rest of the answers once I figure them out?

[herolatry]

Of course. That's why we're doing this, isn't it?

[Like that's the only natural course of action. Right??]

[gravityrush]

[ /o/ ]

I'm not doing anything special, you know... I just want to help.

But thanks for saying so, anyway.

Do you have a favorite tea?

[herolatry]

It's special to me...?

[Being sick is really the actual worst, even if Deku is making light of it. Having Uraraka over makes everything a little better.]

I'm not really picky. Any tea is fine.

[gravityrush]

[ ..... come to think of it... ] Actually, I should... see what you have before offering you a choice, huh?

I'll be riiight back! [ sets the papers down on his desk with a pat. ] You can look at the homework, but Aizawa-sensei probably won't be too hard on you if you're too sick to work on it, so... don't push yourself.

[herolatry]

[If she's raiding Deku's cupboards, she'll find he only has bog standard green tea anyway. Most of his food cupboard is devoted to study snacks.]

... It's not Aizawa-sensei I'm worried about ...

[gravityrush]

[ from the kitchenette, with sounds of putting on tea-- ] Eh, really? Who else would it be?

[herolatry]

Huh? Oh-- well-- me...??

I mean... even if Aizawa-sensei were to go easy on me, I don't want to fall behind! It feels like every day we cover something new, these days...

[icebreak]

[ \o\ ]

Ranking isn't that important to me.
Class can be a competition but it's more important to think of it as cooperation too, right?

[herolatry]

Right! I think so too.

I want everyone in our class to pass with flying colours.

[icebreak]

That's just like you.

In any case are you going to be all right with house arrest?
Again?

[herolatry]

..............................................................

["Don't worry about me, I'll be fine!" ... is what he wants to type

but can't]

[icebreak]

Cleaning duty again?

[ t-tough break... ]

[herolatry]

It's... good hero training?? I guess...

[Even Deku can't really make house arrest and cleaning duty sound like fun tbh]
