I'll land where I gotta land, all right? Come on just grit your teeth and help me up here... [ he grabs at deku's shoulder, prompts him down a little more so he could step on him... yep. sorry deku's clothes. however desperate times call for desperate measures, he is going to kill this plant or someone's going to die trying. ]

[He just. groans. But obliges and his body is at least strong enough not to cave when Kacchan steps on him.]

You got it...?

[ and he braces himself and...

JUMPS... FOR THE MISTLETOE. grabbing wildly at it like a cat trying to claw for a cat toy just barely out of its reach, but he feels his fingertips close on the leaves and he pulls aaand--

he lands on deku and knocks him flat to the ground, because of course. but in his fist is the mistletoe, so. is this victory??? ]

[He grunts as the wind is knocked out of him as Kacchan lands on him because... he's a lot heavier and god, do you really need to bulk out that much. He's kind of regretting this... Maybe he should have just kissed Kacchan...

There are worse people to have for your first kiss right?

Like... Monoma?

Hmmm low bar is low. So he just groans loudly with his face pressed against the floor.]

[ he's a little stunned by the impact, even if he'd landed on deku and on all accounts this is just about the best landing he could get. however something about his head is buzzing and it might just come from...

the plant in his fist. whatever magic bullshit the mistletoe is imbued with, guess what?? direct contact pretty much intensifies it 200%. which is why he dizzily gets up, drags deku up by the shirt, clutches his shoulder and stares at him, looking briefly dazed and also somewhat in dread like he's going to do something he regrets and this is pretty much true because--

yep. he's closing the distance and leaning in to kiss him, hard. awkward angle, soaking wet from the rain still pouring on them... how much worse could a first kiss get? ]

[Well, his nose is starting to bleed from the fall so that's just a nice cherry on top. When Kacchan pulls him up, he blinks at him slightly dazed and then...

sees the look in his eyes, sees his own wide-eyed expression in Kacchan's red pupils and swallows, trying to lean back. He... he doesn't know what to do! He's never kissed anyone and this is just...

So while he's paralyzed with anxiety he's just going to get hard kissed in the rain by Kacchan. It's maybe not as terrible as he expected but he's never kissed anyone so he doesn't really know what to expect. Other than they probably shouldn't be soaking wet and he shouldn't be bleeding.

Romantic. The dream.

It at least leaves him dazed because... what... is he even... supposed to think.]

Ummm.

[ he pulls in close, fist in deku's shirt, drags him in to pretty much kiss like an assault. a kiss almost like a punch to the face or... not quite, but there's something kind of vicious or fierce about it because that might as well be how he does anything, like he would do so with murderous intent.

and then after a few breathless moments he pulls back, the panicked look on his face is for a split-second before his eyes flicker down to the plant in his hand.

... ] This. [ this plant. yes, this is all the plant's fault. instantly his grin goes murderous. ]

This can go fucking die--! [ how?? he doesn't have explosions but he still hurls the mistletoe off into the distance with a surprisingly good throw. and... there it goes. goodbye mistletoe. ]

[He instinctively braces himself against the oncoming assault... er kiss, arms pressed tightly to his chest for a lack of a better idea of what to do with them. The kiss is fierce and a little violent and everything he'd expect from kissing Kacchan, especially with his general cluelessness about kissing. When Kacchan pulls away he realizes that he'd been holding his breath and slowly inhales, trembling and his heart beating fast.

Is that what kissing was like...? It was both exactly what he'd imagined and a lot different from how he'd fantasized kissing someone like Uraraka (or Todoroki because everyone in the class probably fantasizes about Torodoki on some level) was like.

Either way as Bakugou saves them from the plant who caused all of their troubles, Izuku just sort of sits there. The only thing he manages to do is wipe some of the blood from his nose.

Should... he say... thank you???]

[ excuse you, he's never dreamed of kissing icyhot.

........ nope. nooope. not at all.

unfortunately for them and for someone in the world, somewhere, he might even have had experience trying to kiss someone before, back when he was younger and even more of an egoist and thought he was pretty much the hottest shit on earth. this kiss was an impulse driven by plant magic, it was like sheer reflex grabbing deku, claiming his mouth and... in some ways, bakugou is still pretty much fucked up when it comes to feelings. just a short while ago he would rather bottle everything up and then implode and explode, funnily enough by coming at deku and venting his frustration the only way he knows how, violently.

now he tries for a split second to examine how the hell he feels, kissing him, and then... nope. yeah, how about not trying to figure that out right this second, because he has issues.

still. ] ... You're bleeding. [ ..... he doesn't really know what the hell to say. he licks his lips unconsciously--he hadn't used tongue, it's not like he could even taste deku or anything but... he reaches out to rub at the trace of blood on deku's face as well.

if he's touchy it might just be residual plant magic. ]

[UH HUH. SURE.

Izuku is still trying to steel his poor little rabbit heart that's beating so hard in his ears that he's pretty sure that Kacchan can hear it too. But not necessarily out of fear but... passion? For a moment he felt the same sort of sensation that he does when he's pushing himself as hard as he can to win; the thrill and the excitement. He licks his lips, trying to imagine how someone would even kiss with their tongue.

Then Kacchan says something and he notices his nose is dripping blood.]

S-sorry!

[He moves to wipe it away, only to be beaten to the punch. At first he... doesn't flinch but braces himself but when Kacchan's gesture is much more gentle than expected, he relaxes.

This sure is a story to tell about his first kiss.]

[ what kind of story...?? how about no. how about spill about this to anyone and possibly die.

but at the moment he's somehow a little past anger and straight into a sea of confusion and 'oh fuck that sure did just happen', he freezes while mid-wiping blood from deku's nose, staring at his mouth, looking momentarily totally at a loss. what... is he doing.

and yet he doesn't take his hand away. ]

Was that your first kiss? [ oh damn it. he gets the sinking feeling he knows what the answer is. because back in middle school deku was the unpopular kid so, unless he'd gotten the opportunity to ever be brave with uraraka or anyone else--

it must be his first. ]

Ummm. Y-yeah.

[He turns beet red and he honestly seems (and is) much more distressed about that fact than kissing Kacchan. He’s a late bloomer in everything and he knows it. Kacchan has probably kissed so many people because he was so popular in middle school. It must be embarrassing to kiss a loser like him. But his hand on his face is sort of comforting .]

Sorry.

[he feels the need to apologize for his entire existence]

Edited 2018-12-02 23:09 (UTC)

Don't fucking apologize for every damn little thing. [ it still kind of pisses him off. and oh god for fuck's sake he took deku's first kiss... just great. the look on his face says it all, obviously it wasn't a good first, he'd practically just bumped mouths driven by plant magic.

but even so right now, deku isn't pulling away from his touch. ]

[ .........

his scowls stiffens but the look on his face is thoughtful even as he frowns, his hand at deku's face moves to cup his cheek before he leans in again for another. a second, gentler and chaste kiss this time.

he can't change the fact that he took deku's first kiss and it was slightly disastrous, but he thinks he owes it to him to at least make up for it a little and have a nicer follow-up. something to soften such an awful first kiss memory.

also, maybe he just wants to prove he could kiss better than that. ]

[He's quiet while he expects Kacchan to make a joke at his expense and honestly he cant really blame him...

Then suddenly his hand is on Izuku's cheek and he can feel the calluses pressing against his skin as he's pulled close and Kacchan presses his lips against his for a second kiss. One that's less desperate and ferocious and more... soft. Or at least soft for Kacchan.

He's... not really sure what he's supposed to do. He's so inexperienced with these sort of things that it's pretty embarrassing. So he figures he'll just close his eyes and lean in as his hand grips Kacchan's shoulder to steady himself.

...It's... kinda nice. Much better than the first one anyway.]

[ it's just about as soft or sweet as he could get, anywhere close to it anyway. part of him or most of him really does think of it as just making it up to him because hell, you only get one first kiss and he isn't a huge dick, it's deku so he doesn't really want to screw him over with a shitty kiss like that one. he supposes deku deserves something at least a little nice.

he closes his eyes for a moment in the kiss as well, almost relaxed.

the rain stops when he ends it and pulls away, but to his embarrassment he can already feel his face heating up again. ]

There. [ a somewhat... decent kiss. there, proof that he can totally kiss nicely. ]

[So that's a kiss.

His face is still red even as Kacchan pulls away and gets even redder when the rain stops. He sniffs a little and rubs at his nose to try and stop it from bleeding as a sort of distraction. Mostly he just smears blood on his face. He knows that Kacchan just did him a major solid in trying to save him the experience of a first kiss...

He sighs softly. That was... nice. Sort of what he imagined what a kiss should be.]

...That was... nice. I mean, you're good at kissing.

[He's redder than the blood on his face.]

I am, right? [ ob... viously. what, is there any doubt?? and are you kidding him deku's nose is still bleeding.

he grabs a part of deku's shirt to rub at his nose a little more hastily because come on, stop that. ] I mean hell, this was all that plant's fault but... the point is, don't just march over to where I am if I'm fucking suspiciously stuck under a trap like that one. [ yes, that's the moral of the story here. even if--how was deku supposed to know that. he should just know, that's how.

the temperature and wind picks up a little as he's flustered. fuck...! ]

[OW. OW. OW OW. He chokes and slaps his hand away. Dude be nice, you fell on him and you're shredded and weigh like a ton! You're lucky he's alive!

He sniffs loudly and wipes his face again before observing Kacchan with a frown. Or maybe more like a pout.]

If I left you there you were going to drown under your own raincloud.

[ are you calling him heavy?? ] I'm not gonna die that pathetically. See, it stopped raining alrea-- [ and then... it starts pouring heavily on them again, just to prove him wrong.

precise control of his power is going great, clearly. ]

Fuck, let's just head in...! [ and. forget this whole thing happened, because god that's embarrassing. mortal grudge against mistletoe for life now. ]

[Yes? Have you seen ur biceps friend?

Oh wait he's getting rained on again. FIGURES. He sighs and resigns himself to probably just... getting used to this. This is his life now.

Still, he's kind of grinning stupidly because he's still giddy about kissing someone. And Kacchan was popular in middle school so that means he actually kissed someone very popular (never mind that... he was mostly just getting kissed and not doing any of the heavy lifting).

It's probably going to piss Kacchan off to see him smiling like that but he can take it.]

Yeah, let's, come on.

[Just going to cheerfully walk at his side! An annoying ray of sunshine!]

What the hell are you all cheerful for, that plant forced us into ki... you know--! Shit! [ sweats somewhat in rage, even if the sweating is useless now!! but at least they're both soaked and awful and...

the clouds further away drift apart for sunlight to come through, even as it continues to rain. a sunshower.

he puts a hand over his face both to block the view of deku's annoying smiley ass and to hide a blush, what the fuck, he just kissed him twice and now belated embarrassment kicks in with a vengeance. just going to beeline for the kitchen and stress-cook something to get his mind off of things because fuck everything!!! ]

Y-yeah I know. [Okay, HE'S BLUSHING IN EARNEST TOO NOW. When it's said out loud like that then yeah... his brain goes to "oh my god I just kissed Kacchan" and causes him to also cover his face in shyness.

They can probably never ever mention this again. To anyone. Not even each other. But he still smiles despite himself and despite having gone pretty red in the face.]

Still, a first kiss is... kind of exciting...

[For someone who had been ignored and shy for most of his life, that's a big deal! He's gonna ride that high as long as possible before the reality sets in and the belated embarrassment gets him 10 times worse.

So for now he'll just follow Kacchan into the kitchen and keep his mouth smartly shut.]

[ exciting, really? he probably had his back in mid school when he was pretty much a smartass who thought he was the greatest thing ever, maybe went on a few dates with popular girls and... what a nightmare, that someone or anyone had to deal with him like he was back then.

he hurls a spare washtowel straight at deku's face, because they're both pretty wet. and he supposes deku still has the bloody nose. there's probably ice here somewhere, he'll look for it. ]

You wanted to do it with round face or what? [ if deku would like to have kissed anyone, that seems like the most obvious guess.

or maybe half and half, but thinking of that is annoying as hell...! pretty boy bastard. ]

M-Maybe!

[He sputters against the washcloth in a tone that clearly indicates "yes" because he can't really lie to save his life or even his dignity.]

I mean... I've thought about it.. with a few people... but it was just, you know, imagining it. So I didn't really know... what to expect.

[Look, he's a normal boy who imagines doing things with attractive people! But he's just been too shy to ever take it beyond just thoughts in his head.

...But yeah Todoroki and Uraraka are up there on the list.]
