No, scratch that, this is definitely a terrible idea1
But Bakugou is his friend and it wouldn't be very manly to just let him stew in his own juices, especially not when the issue at hand bothers Kirishima as well. So he takes a deep breath and types the infamous three words.]
Kirishima quickly finishes putting everything explosion-vulnerable he doesn't want to lose out of 'potential raging Bakugou'-range and then turns toward him with an attempted casual smile.]
That game night was something, huh? I had no clue you could do the sure-kill code even with both eyes squeezed shut.
[ He stares at Kirishima for a moment, biting his lip then slamming his fist back into the door behind him. Give him the benefit of the doubt. ]
She already showed her damn face to me. Told me to do 'whatever I want' to get back at her for backing out like a fuckin' coward— [ His fist tightens. ] And now you're sayin' that— [ Had he not changed at all? Is this just what people thought of him? ]
[ His shoulders relax for a moment. He keeps his red eyes locked on the redhead before him. ]
Everyone's pushing some bullshit image my way— [ He stops there. He's furious, but doesn't feel like exactly yelling about it right now. It feels like he'd be admitting he's something he isn't, and it's not something he wants to discuss. ]
[He meets his eyes evenly, without any challenge or looking away. Kirishima takes a deep breath to yell his misgivings some more, but Bakugou being less noisy than him is strange. So he ends up watching him instead, frowning and eventually letting his held breath out in a single long exhale.]
You're telling me. [Dropping his hands Kirishima lets himself fall back on top of his bed and scoots back so that he can rest his back against the wall. Then he gestures for Bakugou to do the same.] They're totally underestimating you! I mean- "Letting you do with her whatever you want"? Did she seriously say that?! What does she think she is, some tragic heroine in some cheap c-class action trash with you cast as the villain? I was going to talk to her about what she did at the sports festival anyway, but this is too much!
[ Kirishima is almost getting him too riled up to sit down and just talk, but cue him just doing it anyway, except he sits at the edge of the bed as if he's going to need to get up and leave at any second.
Truth be told, it just feels weird to even talk this out. He's not like Kirishima who can sit down and just state his problems and take feedback. He wants the feedback without the confession, thanks. ]
Doesn't matter anyway. Fuckin' stadium got attacked, so even if she did want to fight... [ But at the very least, they might've had the chance to finish what was started. He drags his nails into the sheets. ] Che—! Why are you bringin' this shit up, huh?
It does matter! [He huffs at the idea it couldn't.]
Even with the attack you could have just said that the fight got interrupted and they could have let you have a rematch once everything's cleared!
But like that...
It doesn't have a proper end! She just decided to give away what was not only her own chance, but also prevented anybody else who'd actually want to fight all the way through from doing it without as much as throwing a single punch! It wasn't manly at all! I feel cheated by how easily she did it! Not to mention she went and treated you like some villain, now I'm mad about that too!
[Taking a deep breath, he tries to calm down. This talk is meant to calm down Bakugou and test the waters with him, not for Eijirou to get all upset instead!]
...told you I was gonna find and have a talk with her. I don't think she gets what she's done.
Kirishima grimaces, hoping that Bakugou won't take this as his cue to leave.]
I'm gonna speak with her. I want to know her reasons and to make sure that she understands what it is she did. And also...
[He frowns, hoping his next words won't be too much.]
I'll tell her that she's wrong about you! She's making the same mistake as those media-people who only wanted an as big as possible story back when you got taken, and that's just not alright! If you want to be a proper hero you need to see people for what they really are, not by their first impressions!
[He pulls himself up and tries his luck at a smile. It swerves and crashes, but at least it doesn't burn.]
Want to train later tomorrow after class? That new move you used to get me was really something, but I'm positive that I found an effective counter against it already! I wanna try it out!
Ha! You wish! I'm gonna wipe the floor with you this time for sure!
[He isn't even trying to be subtle, he just wants you to smile (or do the Bakugou-slasher-version of it) again! They don't have to do anything to acknowledge it as long as the gesture just gets accepted!
Kirishima slides off his bed and walks over to where Bakugou's standing, feeling reassured now.]
Wanna try out this new game I got last week? Or you could help me with the latest lesson in hero politics, I didn't get that one at all!
[translation: don't just hole yourself up in your room! hang out with me!]
[ He sighs. ] The fuck... what's it gonna take to get shit through that shit-hair head of yours? Huh? [ He looks at the door for a second, then back to Kirishima. ]
You mean you love it, but are too overwhelmed to put it into words!
[He laughs happily as he follows along, falling easily into step next to Bakugou without needing to as much as to ask where they are heading. Bakugou leads and Kirishima tags along, as long as they both happen to want to go the same ways. No words needed.
It's also a form of trust.]
And don't make fun of me just because I can't memorize where that President Paparazzi signed an agreement with some vigilants that made them a group of heroes under certain limits. It's enough when I know what those limits are, right?

[ He's not going to ask why. Part of him knows why, if only because he knows Kirishima. ]
ill come over there
[ He could use the walk anyway. He gets up, pocketing his phone and leaving his room to head next door to Kirishima's. And knock knock. ]

Date: 2017-07-29 03:41 am (UTC)[Well, here comes his execution commando!

At least ...I think you already do. It's about 'that'. You know. What happened at the Sports Festival.

Date: 2017-07-29 04:09 am (UTC)[He makes a hasty move to stop Bakugou from leaving again, already because running away isn't like his friend at all.]
I'm surprised you didn't track her down and give her a piece of your mind yet!
[Or did he? Nah, there weren't any reports of explosions or broken buildings nearby!]

no subject
Date: 2017-07-29 04:33 pm (UTC)But who can blame him, with an offer like that? Kirishima pretty much flinches in empathy, before he jumps up and tightens his fists.]
Dude, what the hell?! That's not an apology at all!
