[Left outside Deku's apartment door is a package wrapped haphazardly in brown paper - inside is a brown leatherbound notebook with a strap that wraps around it to keep it closed, along with a decently nice set of mechanical pencil and pen. There's a note tucked into the strap of the notebook, in Bakugo's handwriting.]

Here, put all your nerdy crap about your fave heroes in here. Happy Birthday.

From:

Who would leave a package? Hang on... he nearly forgot what day it was, but once he remembered, there's only one person who knows it...!

"This is a really nice notebook... durable, good paper..." he blubbers. Even if it weren't, he'd be grateful. He can feel himself getting emotional. It's just a notebook, but receiving a gift when he's so far from home and everyone he knows is an unexpected comfort.

He lingers in his doorway with that sappy nerd face. Then he remembers where he is, brings everything inside, and grabs his communicator.

thank you for the gift kacchan!!!!!

Yes, that is 5 exclamation marks. He's usually more calm, but this is a special occasion.

this means so much to me. where did you find such a nice one? i'm almost too scared to use it. i should put some of our training notes in here too!

From:

hey. are you busy?

[ Hi Izuku, have a text!!! ]

From:

hi gorgug-kun, what's up?

From:

not much....i'm making profiles on people and i want them to write about themselves. it's going to be shared. is that okay with you? it's hard to explain over text

From:

[ How can he begin to tell him that he's had multiple hits put out on him? ]

it could be dangerous to put information about myself out in public but i'm sure i can think of a few safe things.
what kinds of things should be on there?

[ He doesn't like lying, but if he has to...!! ]

From:

[ Well now, hold on, Izuku!! ]

do you work for the government

[ or--! ]

are you a ticking time bomb

From:

this is the kind of information i mean...

[ No comment!! ]

From:

[ Gorgug stares at this response....

.....and he decides to himself that he is going to figure out Izuku's truth. HE'S ON THE CASE.

FOR NOW: ] i will never leak your government/ticking time bomb information

i wrote about the kind of world i'm from, what race i am and what i do. you can make stuff up if you want. and what do you think about giving your thoughts about what people have done in etraya or the missions since you've been here?

without giving anything away. it's meant to be for someone... but i don't want anyone putting anything out there they don't want.

From:

i didn't say i had any!!

[ If it's typed here on the network, even in a PM, it's already leaked, Gorgug!! ]

OK... well my hero name is deku, i'm a hero in training with a provisional license. in an emergency i can provide rescue, combat, evac, and first aid to people in need.

[ That's the boring answer. But who is this for?? Why is Gorgug being so cagey?? And why does Izuku have to be so bad at lying?? ]

i uh don't like saba shioyaki. [ This is a lie, he regularly eats grilled mackerel. ]
what else... my favorite color is black, and I've always wanted a cat. [ It's not, and he does not. He would be more favorably disposed towards animals if they didn't smell his hesitancy and try to bully him! ]

From:

[ Exactly what someone who is a ticking time bomb would say.

But Gorgug is reading this information, and you know what is his response? ]

your profile reads like a friends ad

[ Wow.... (do you want to offer anything else, Gorgug?? no?) ]

From:

[ Everyone's a critic! ]

i don't even know what those look like. what should i write then??

From:

no, it's okay. you should keep it. you could use it for that thing harold finch made where people make profiles and talk to each other. that's kind of like a friendship meeting online get together

[ See!! ...even if that would mean keeping up any potential lies in there... ]

From:

i appreciate his hard work, but i decided not to do that. back home, i used to only make profiles so i could view stuff, not post.

[ Read: He's really bad at lying!! And his Hero fanboy notes were a solitary hobby. ]

what about your project? what kind of stuff is going into it?

From:

i'm the same. i don't really like posting... unless i find something cool

[ handshaking emoji on social media habits, deku. ]

well... that tatianna woman wanted gossip about people. i asked her what she actually wanted, but she still said anything. so i was going to give her profiles that people wanted to share. that's about it. and i was going to leave my opinion on them too

so i would say how you helped out and put your life on the line on a project in moorecroft. and you were a good partner in a mission project we did together

she said she wanted to figure out if she could trust us... but i'm not going to go out of my way to make stuff up about people i don't know. just what people want to share or say?

i've never done this before

From:

somehow i still feel like that was top secret, but i guess that only applies in moorecroft.

if she was here long enough, then i suppose she knows about the racing competition, but not necessarily everything we did in it.

it seems strange that she would want to know if she could trust us but give no reason for us to trust her.

From:

if a guy gave you flowers and chocolates that you were dating, would that be good?

From:

do you mean you're dating the flowers and chocolates, or that you have a boyfriend?

From:

[ He has to sit and think about that. ]

both

[ Now he HAS to know the answer(s)!? ]

From:

[ Ehhhh?? Gorgug????? ]

i guess it would be good unless you're allergic to flowers and chocolates??

From:

[ Oh.

Shit? Wait a minute. ]

are you??

From:

no, i'm fine. gorgug-kun why are you asking about this? is there someone who gave you flowers and chocolate? i'm the worst person to ask about this.
i don't even know what to give to
uh
you know, someone in this situation.

[ A person who is not present, a person who Izuku vows never to show this DM to, a person who is in a situation involving him. A situationship, if you will. Hypothetically, speaking for a friend, of course! Of course! Izuku sure does wind up in situations... ]

From:

[ Gasp, is Izuku also a useless guy in need? He's found a comrade in suffering! ]

do you need help?
i've been asking everyone because it's good to know
i wanted a lot of opinions
i can give you some of the answers i got if you need help too

From:

please and thank you!

[ Please!! ]

OTL

From:

okay. read carefully
it has to be specialised to their preferences. it has to represent them and be priceless
it has to be unique to them
valentines day is a capitalist holiday meant to swindle you out of your money
some people love chocolates. some people hate them
flowers too
whatever you do they will see the thought and consideration you put into it
but it's got to be something money can't buy
you should give them your time
unless your time can be bought with money then i don't know what to do
i would take money for my time if it was enough
something homemade is good too. or handmade?
but remember to show them that you know them

[ Enjoy the list. ]

From:

all of these contradict each other?
i mean not that i'm not grateful
i just still don't know what to do
do i buy something or do i not buy something
i think i will buy something
i mean not that we have to pay for much here

From:

what are you going to buy?
is it priceless?

From:

i don't know! i only just decided this! flowers and chocolate i guess?

[ He is very generic in his ideas because he's never done this before! ]

From:

you have to think about something personal too
that was the biggest advice
it's got to be personal

[ Come on!!!! ]

From:

...do spicy chocolates exist?
is that weird? i think that would be kind of weird.
i think spicy hot chocolate exists. that might be OK.

we both like good food, and the person i'm thinking of likes spicy food.

From:

i don't know if there's spicy chocolate in kwik trip? do you want to ask a companion bot how to make spicy chocolate? or order some in?

unless you know someone who could help you make spicy chocolate without letting your date know what you're doing

From:

that's gonna be hard because the person i know who knows most about cooking is the person who's receiving the gifts.

do you have any experience hiding gifts from someone who's really smart?

From:

do they go in your room?

do you live with them?

From:

[ He didn't think such simple questions would make him blush quite this much. ]

sometimes. we don't live together, but we're at each other's places a lot.

From:

[ It's time to learn everything!! ]

okay. are their noses really good?

From:

sure i guess? just like... the usual regular range for humans.

From:

then what about in a box? or your clothes drawer? do you share clothes?

From:

not usually? sometimes??
i think the problem is that they can tell i'm hiding something. it's hard!

From:

[ Hm? Hmmmmmm. ]

you've got a terrible poker face?

From:

i'm not good at lying, especially to someone close to me.

From:

so if you see someone you have a gift for you're trying to hold back, they know right away because it's written all over your face?

[ That's the problem!! That sounds like the problem! ]

From:

yes that is the problem!!

[ Why does he feel like he's being judged?! ]

it doesn't help that i like making people happy, so i can't help the excited expression on my own face too!

From:

[ GORGUG IS FEELING SO SMART RIGHT NOW!!

And with his smart wisdom--!! ]

how about you give them the gift right away? then you don't need to worry about hiding anything

From:

that would work for a regular gift, but this one has to be given on a specific day...

[ Thank you for your wisdom, Gorgug... ]

From:

just wrap it up and say it's for whatever day it's for. then it's not in your hands anymore

my bio parents gave me a gift once to open later after i visited them for a weekend

From:

[ Izuku imagines that Katsuki's curiosity would war with him being a stickler for the rules. Well, his fault for letting something like that torture him. Izuku is fine with this. ]

that's crazy enough to work. so did you wait to open your gift?

From:

yeah. i didn't know what's inside it and they didn't want me to open it right away so it wasn't a problem

i think i forgot about it until later in the day

[ It's so easy to forget about things...! ]

From:

i'll just have to go with that then. thank you for your advice gorgug-kun. wish me luck.

From:

good luck. don't choke.
