"No idol hell allowed"? How does that even make sense? No wonder that guy walked in there on accident.
[You are so mysterious in the ways you work...]
Just write "Merchandise Room" in big letters on the door. Then people will know not to look in there if they think fan merch is bad for whatever reason.
[Katsuki loves fan merch so he might be judging just a little. But he also has no idea what this "idol hell" was like and how bad the merch might have traumatized them so he has no room to speak on that!!]
Oh, yeah, I guess I should've thought of that. I guess as long as having the sign there doesn't make anyone upset either, but maybe it's fine? Probably it's fine!
I'm savvy with the internet, but I don't warn people for shit. If someone has an issue with me or somethin' I say, I don't care.
[At least not online, anyway. He's definitely someone who trolls anonymous forums..]
Either way, change the damn name to something simple. Even the people who the "idol hell" crap relates to might not understand the sign you've got right now.
Uh... hm. You can hear everything all the time, and you can go in the sun for an hour. You named your cat after your friend, and he doesn't chase rabbits. Always have a birthday party, unless you don't want to... uh... following people in the store is creepy?
....most of the shit you remember is facts about me?
[Katsuki sounds SO exasperated. There was so much else he taught her that was really important like not to meddle in relationships unless they want you to or to at least do it in less obvious ways!!!! Or that she needs to make herself happy in order to make her friends happy!!!!
But her brain mostly absorbed the little facts and tidbits that Katsuki told her about himself.... That's just so. Rinku.]
At least you remembered the part about stalking people. That's important for everybody to know.
[Katsuki wants to argue that she doesn't need to remember that much about him, but he knows she'll start telling him about why he's a great friend and deserves to be remembered and blah blah blah. Mushy stuff!!
Instead he'll change the subject by being a good host.]
While you're here, Senpai. Do you want me to cook you anything? I've been gettin' good at it with one arm.
[Katsuki will pick Deku up to put him down... giving him a lil smooch on the top of the head before he does. And then he gets up to his feet, and walks back inside. His skin was starting to itch in the sun, so it's a good idea for him to do something where it's dark. There's blackout curtains all over the house for Katsuki's sake, at least.]
I'll make some onigiri. The rice won't take too long to cook, and I can make extras for you to eat on your trip home.
[And like Rinku, he remembers little facts about his friends like how she likes round food like onigiri and donuts!! He's never made donuts before though so rice balls it is!]
[Rinku sparkles and makes a little gleeful noise. She tries to get up, pauses, turns awkwardly to remove the bunny that is still standing on her tail, and then gets up successfully to follow Katsuki back in.]
Thank you! You're the best, Katsuki-kun! I'll do something for you the next time I see you!
[Katsuki smiles just a little bit when he's called the best. Unable to stop his ego from being fluffed up with the compliment. He just loves praise, okay--]
You don't have to.
[But he knows it's futile. Once Rinku has her mind set, especially when it has to do with her friends, she's too stubborn to argue with!!]
I just like cooking. That's all.
[Uh huh so why are you making extras for your friend then?????]
Whaddya' like in your onigiri? Sweet stuff? Savory?
That both makes things easier and harder for me at the same time.
[There's so many good things to put into onigiri... also Rinku will notice that they have. Two fridges. The one Katsuki opens is nice and clean and stocked to the brim with cooking ingredients. The other.... don't open that one.
Katuski decides, because it sounds good to him too even if he's not hungry for human food, to make some with fresh veggies. Healthy!! After making the decision he'll close the fridge and get started on the rice first. He's so serious when he's in the kitchen, too... looking like the head chef of a restaurant as he grabs the bowl from the rice cooker.
And then he looks at Rinku with a stern look.]
Open that cupboard and open the bag of rice.
[He points to a bottom cupboard near the fridges with his foot. Since he has one arm, it's always been a hassle getting rice ready.... he can on his own. But why would he when he can use Rinku and her healthy arms instead???]
[Rinku goes and opens the cupboard, pulls out the rice... gets distracted looking at everything else in there... oh, yeah, she has to get the rice. She pulls that up and sets it on the counter, then opens up the bag.]
[Oh Rinku and her ADHD... there's mostly rice and other grains down in that cupboard!! Nothing interesting enough to get distracted!!]
Yep.
[Katsuki fills up the bowl with three cups, there being a little measuring cup inside the bag already, and takes it to the sink to rinse.]
Todoroki and Sensei are so lucky I decided to move in with them. Neither of them are good at cooking, and these great ingredients were being wasted in their hands.
[...Katsuki they asked you to move in you didn't just DECIDE...]
Almost every meal, yeah. It's probably why he doesn't mind how bland and fucked up Todoroki's cooking is. His taste buds are all whack.
[Rinse rinse...]
Though... I mean. Todoroki's been through this whole different universe thing before. I think he's accumulated about four years total between two different places? So he's at least had a lot of time to learn how to cook proper.
He cuts his vegetables much better than he did back home, and he's gotten alright with the salt levels.
[God he just cannot stop himself from gushing about Shoto whenever he has the chance, can he...]
[Katsuki will drain the rice, with a little bit of difficulty, but he succeeds in not spilling any of the grains into the sink and that's a win for him.]
And beyond just being sick of convenience food, a place like this where everyone is being useful in one way or another makes you wanna work twice as hard yourself. Things you suck at, that you didn't care about before, now feel like stuff you gotta fix or you'll be stuck behind everyone else.
[Katsuki knows that feeling all too well. He's plenty strong on his own and people STILL don't take him seriously. Because of his age, mostly. And it's frustrating as hell, but the only thing you can do really is show them that they're wrong with your skills.]
People don't realize how powerful their judgement really is, though. Spite is an incredibly useful emotion. It can motivate you to do insane shit that you otherwise couldn't or wouldn't have done before.
[Gonna go put the bowl into the rice cooker, and set up the time.]
And then the people who looked down on you are the one with the egg on their face. It's hilarious.
