Is he?? Did he just ask Bakugo out? Oh no. Oh no no no. As lovely as Bakugo is...
No. I can't, I'm currently dating someone.
Huh... Would he have dated Bakugo?
I might have otherwise, but no. I don't know people with experience in it, and I was hoping you would have insight. You know a lot about a lot, I'm sorry I lean on you so often.
Questions unasked will never get answered, but Shoto reads what he's been given.
You thinking about me having a significant other has been on your mind?
Maybe one day they have a full conversation without misunderstanding. One day, but not today.
I'm not good at anything conversationally. I don't know think he would do this to hurt me, but I also know that since he is serious, I'm going to make a lot of mistakes. No relationship is permanent, but I wanted to minimalize damage I do to it. He means a lot.
Shoto can tell there's something else going on here and really, he puts his problems aside for the moment.
We've never had time to be able to. But even if I don't have any more experience than you do in the dating world, we could talk about it. Hearing other people's thoughts on things helps me, too. We don't have an internet here.
Bakugo's going to get upset if he says 'Don't say that', so he won't. But he wants to.
You know your own opinion. You know if you've ever felt something regarding the topic. Not having experience doesn't mean you lose those personal things. Let me start. We're surrounded by beautiful women all the time in our class, strong, capable, loving, but this is the first time I've actually recognized that.
It's your turn now.
Just don't let the question be where he learned it and Bakugo will have a semi-good time.
I told you, I haven't paid any mind to that shit before.
And he is not up for discussing 'what if I'm attracted to my childhood friend' with Todoroki this morning. Not over text, where there will be physical evidence he did so.
Not that he thinks Todoroki would go telling anyone. At least not maliciously. But...
Look, he isn't ready to open this overpacked can of worms yet.
If you want to talk about how not to completely fuck up a connection to someone, I can do that. Otherwise I dunno what you're fishing for here?
Alright that's a clear intent and Shoto knows when one of those come down from on high.
Sorry, I just don't think I'm good at conversations like this. I know I initiated it, before you say it. Please tell me how to not completely fuck up a connection to someone. That is more than helpful and something I do not want to do. I like him.

The last time they had a text exchange like this, it led to kissing. So.
...he has the wrong idea.
Are you trying to ask me out??
Is that what this is?
Is he going to have to figure out how to reject him?? It's going to make shit so weird if he has to reject him.

No. I can't, I'm currently dating someone.

You know what? No. This fully shuts a door and that's a good thing. Now he just... has... the more complicated door.
That's neither here nor there.
Well I don't have any experience.
If it wasn't for those damn bats none of this would even be on my mind.
What are you trying to figure out?

No.
Sometimes he forgets Todoroki needs things spelled out for him.
Relationships.
Kissing.
Shit like that.
It's never been on my radar before.
Todoroki was his gay awakening. Izuku was his even gayer awakening.
So you're worried you'll hurt him?

Can't give you answers I don't have.
He mistakenly assumes this is still about Todoroki's dating life.
But I at least know about hurting people.

What the hell does that have to do with being afraid you'll hurt someone?
Feeling tempted by pretty faces?
His turn, what? He never agreed to talk about himself.
(no subject)
Do you have any suggestions, or things you have observed. Those sorts of things are helpful, too. I'd like to hear them if you do.

Texting this is stupid.
Are you home?
