You do realize that I could invite you over to my dorm room instead, right? With a functional bed and everything.
Then again, I think I'm going to need some convincing on why I should even let you into said bed now after having heard you complain about that one time I asked for a hug, asshole.
Well gee, I'm so sorry for having felt too comfortable to feel like leaving anytime soon after you had agreed to it.
[It then occurs to Manjoume faintly that he never actually told Bakugou why he had sprung the request for the hug as opposed to just a simple "hey clear your schedule, i'm coming over. and we can probably cuddle or something if you want" that one time, only that he shouldn't have to explain himself because it's totally normal to want to hug someone you're dating, obviously, so stop being a baby and just let him come over and do it. An answer he still stands by as a valid one, for the record.
But he had avoided actually getting into the weeds of the reason why that day specifically he had suddenly texted Bakugou asking for that of all things, nor why that "hug" did end up turning into clinging to the other for like an hour once he had gotten it. Even with them dating now, he still has times where its hard to just admit to certain things--its what happens when you spend the better part of your life not being allowed to get something as simple as a damn hug that easily from anyone until now, but oh well.
Regardless, despite his demand to be given reasons to graciously allow Bakugou to visit him instead, the other boy easily could have just started with "because we're dating" and he probably would have let that be enough, because Manjoume deep down is too soft to really say no. The promise of warmth and food is just a nice but not strictly necessary bonus.
... But far be it from Manjoume Jun to not act like it otherwise, when he does respond.]
Fine.
Consider yourself lucky that I'm cold and hungry enough right now to not deny the offer otherwise.
However, if this bed gets broken too somehow, I am going to kick you right back out into the snow.
I STAYED THE ENTIRE TIME, DAMMIT!! The hell are you bitching about?
[On the same vein, Bakugou only asked once why, and then didn't pry further when Manjoume grumped at him instead. It was pretty fucking weird to suddenly get that text though. But... even weirder that the annoyance at being interrupted this time took obvious second place to concern over what might've happened to his Duelist. Which of course brought about a flare of anger. If anyone else put Manjoume in this state, he was gonna find and fucking murder them for it. Don't send the guy his way needing a bunch of damn cuddles and hugs to feel better!! Bastards! That's their choice; not yours!
Bakugou knows all too well how difficult it is to voice things. Just wanting the time together had been enough to tell him something happened. Turning Manjoume down hadn't been on the table as a response. He wanted to know why, still does, but didn't pursue it out of respect for that struggle. So he stayed, arm around a shoulder, occasional hand through his hair, never one to cuddle or snuggle like a damn octopus, but also not so aloof he gave the impression he'd rather be elsewhere. Because unlike Bakugou, who grew up not wanting hugs and grumping when he got them, Manjoume grew up being unable to even get them... Part of his private realization about dating the Duelist is wanting to give him that freedom.
Being with someone who gave a shit. Even enough for a simple hug or a home-cooked meal.
Psh, sure he could've started with the last one, but no kill like overkill! Why give 1 good reason when 5 amazing ones will blow down that door in record time. Hah! He's a competitive bastard. Plus he really does have the ingredients for dinner and wants to use them.]
You're fulla bullshit. I know you mouth's watering already. I'll make sure you're on fire tonight.
Excuse me?? You're the one who started this argument by calling me a damn koala!!
[(Let it never be said that they don't have stupid arguments anymore now that they're dating, because this right here is a prime example of one.)
Maybe Manjoume should tell Bakugou what the motivation was for at the time... no, not maybe, more than likely will tell him sooner or later, especially since he doesn't actually like the feeling that had come with having avoided the answer last time. It feels too much like cowardice or giving off the impression that he doesn't trust the guy he's dating enough to talk about it, which is definitely not true now that he's in a better state to look back on it calmly.
He did really like the hug though. A lot, in fact. He had made sure to thank his boyfriend and empathize that it had in fact helped before he had left sometime afterward to go back to his own dorm, at least.
... although, uh, hugging kind of stops being on his mind pretty damn quickly once Bakugou texts back that.]
THE BED IS SUPPOSED TO BE MORE COMFORTABLE THAN THE FLOOR, THATS WHY MOST PEOPLE USE IT YOU IDIOT
[... He says, as if he isn't very interested in imagining the thought of being potentially railed into the floor hard enough that he will be feeling it the next day...
Because you were a damn koala! Next time I'm getting those chocolate mint leaves for you!
[Anyone who thinks dating resolves all stupid arguments is a fool. They're probably arguing even more because now they see each other more and actually have more reason to get into personal space and each other's lives.
Bakugou's left the choice to talk up to Manjoume. He knows what it's like to not want to explain something that's too embarrassing, humiliating, vulnerable, or painful to someone else. Even if that someone is a person you should be able to trust. The burden of being strong: it's hard to be weak. Forcing Manjoume to talk wouldn't help him either and would only draw a rift between them. Not something Bakugou wants to do when he just started dating the guy.
Of course, if it's just something stupid, then yeah, he's gonna sock him on his damn head and yell at him...
If anyone said Bakugou was gonna be sitting on a couch with an arm around Manjoume and wandering a hand over his chest above his heart in those comforting sort of ways, he'd probably have strangled them up against the wall. But guess fucking what.]
Then it better be strong enough not to break like a fucking twig when we use it!
[Leave that decision up to Manjoume, since he knows his own bed better than Bakugou does. That said... there's a reason there's a rug on that floor. Comfortable enough. Probably going to leave some marks all over his neck and shoulders too.]
if you actually do that i'm going to take those leaves and shove them down your own throat
[He might like to hug like one but he isn't going to eat like a koala too, fuck off Bakugou.]
well how am I supposed to know it won't break until we use it, because I'm sure as hell not about to go ask anyone here if they happen to know the answer to that question
[then again, fubuki would likely know... but then he'd have to listen to him potentially give Manjoume advice on maybe not having rough sex like that if its going to be able to break the obelisk blue dorm bed, which is not what he wants right now, as much as he normally does respect fubuki-shishou's advice
there is always the floor with the nice rug... but still--]
can you just get over here already before I change my mind
i'll cover your big mouth and you won't get them back out!
[He'll just wait for Manjoume to get peeved at something and go for a yell, then shove them in! Not koala like at all. Just be glad he's not going for real eucalyptus.]
i didn't say ask anyone! have you ever inspected your damn bed?! you can get an idea of strength just from looking at the frame, dumbass.
[Because obviously all sane, normal people take a few minutes to give their bed a fuck test when they get into a new room. Or at least jump on the bed a few times so they know what they're dealing with. Good thing Bakugou already brought up screwing on the floor because now he can't trust Manjoume's bed to hold two damn people!
Weak ass bed.]
as if you'd change your mind. you're already thinking about it.
Of course I've inspected it! Even had it jumped on a few times no thanks to old dorm mates that insisted on trying to found out if if it was bouncy or not.
[It just hasn't been inspected for the purposes of fucking yet, Bakugou...]
And you don't know that. You're not a mind reader.
[... he absolutely is thinking about it tho, lets be real]
Of course he'd have it jumped on. The idea of Manjoume jumping on his own bed? What preposterous ridiculousness is that. Sure! Blame it on your friends like it was their idea. Totally how it works.
And yes, he's being a shit, implying the guy paid people to jump on his own bed cause he's too proud to do it himself.
Damn right it hasn't been! That's their privilege now!]
You can thank the Slifer slackers for that one, as they had burst in without knocking and decided it was worth doing that for shits and giggles.
[then again, this incident was in first year... and has been moved several times between his stays at slifer and obelisk because he's a picky bitch... who knows how much strength is actually left in it now...]
are you seriously more interested in testing the rug here rather than the bed
Oh. That's what you meant. So you've never jumped on it yourself.
[Bakugou had seen the Slifer red "dorm" as it was called. Looked like a damn storage building compared to the Obelisk blue dorm. Probably would've given Manjoume more crap if they'd met at the Slifer dorm...
The U.A. Heights Alliance dorms between the Ra Yellow and Obelisk blue dorms in terms of appearance and prestige, though the school doesn't split its students in ranks like that. Theirs is split in courses. Hero, Business, Support, General Studies being the largest groups, further broken into Classes. Class 1-A of the Hero Course. Class 1-B of the Hero Course. Etc.]
Look me in the eye and tell me in full confidence I won't be able to fuck you through the frame of your bed.
[Bakugou has every expectation the bed will hold up just fine. But knowing Manjoume's on the other side of the phone with half his body's blood running to his face is too entertaining to really lay off the issue so soon.]
I meant do that when we get there! Or else make sure your fucking rug is ready for a ride!
[That wasn't a dodge! That was a mutual postponement!]
Well it sounds like you are from over here where I'm still sitting alone, because you seem to be taking your sweet ass time getting the fuck over here to my place yet.
[Noooo, he's totally not impatient for Bakugou to be there and providing his company to fix that problem, perish the thought.]
6 (but also 2 because I couldn't resist)
Then again, I think I'm going to need some convincing on why I should even let you into said bed now after having heard you complain about that one time I asked for a hug, asshole.
what a combo. this ship is A+
Tch.
You were a damn koala for an hour...
[So weird! (But also kind of nice.) SO FUCKING WEIRD!!]
I'm warm and it's snowing out.
You haven't broken in that new blanket yet.
I got the shit you wanted for the spring rolls.
And you're fucking dating me.
agreed i'm glad you approve <3
