Cold noodles are gross. [But then his answer is going to seem fairly childish;] Chicken nuggets.

[Finger food is really easy for him to eat because it requires zero efforts on his part to eat with his fucked up hands.]

They're not gross. They're also fast and easy so I don't know why you'd even say that.

[Yeah, he sort of gets the whole fingers foods thing. But noodles are not that hard either. Just a lot of slurping.]

I like chicken nuggets. Next time I'll get you the monster shaped ones.

Hot noodles are faster. You have to wait for cold noodles to be properly cold under the water.

[Ugh. He really wants chicken nuggets now. Fuck you Dabi for trying to find out more about him.]

Now I'm hungry and sleepy.

Hot noodles then, asshole. I love all kinds of noodles.

[As if it's some kind of massive discussion about noodles. But good, he hopes Shigaraki is yearning for those damn chicken nuggets.]

Me too. We'll get noodles and chicken nuggets tomorrow and save the hot dogs for another day.

Why? Because I'll embarrass you with a boring plain hot dog?

[Another joke. Shigaraki's full of them tonight.]

I'm going to bed, I'll see you in the morning.

Yeah, your hot dog is definitely the most embarrassing thing about you.

[He rolls his eyes, then grabs at Shigaraki's wrist.]

You're already in bed. Just close your damn eyes and go to sleep.

Ugh. You know what I fucking mean.

[But he closes his eyes, letting Dabi hold his wrist as he tries to let his body succumb to sleep. Trying desperately to ignore the phantom hunger for chicken nuggets.]

Yeah.... of course I fucking do.

[Hah.

For a moment there Dabi thought Shigaraki might get up and go back to his room and so his first instinct was to grab at him? Seems that way. Well, whatever. He's not going to be embarrassed about it. He slowly lets go of Shigaraki's wrist and just keeps his hand there nearby as he tries to fall asleep. He fully intends on sleeping in, too.]

[Eventualy, Shigaraki drifts asleep and doesn't wake up till late the next morning.

Weary red eyes open slowly, blinking away the haze of sleep as he forces himself awake. He turns to look over and see if Dabi's still with him, wondering if he should get up now to get ready.]

[ Of course Dabi is still with him, not having moved at all in the night. He's sleeping pretty damn peacefully, hands still outstretched and laying against Shigaraki's shoulder.

Late the next morning is still too early though. He'd rather just stay and sleep. ]

[He lays there watching Dabi sleep. He's content with taking a lazy morning and is in no hurry to get either of them up. Since Dabi's got his hand on his shoulder, and this is Dabi's room, Shigaraki can't even roll over to play some morning video games while he waits for Dabi to wake up.

Instead he just admires the other, taking in the details of Dabi's sleeping face. Like how many staples are in his face and the way his hair cascades over the pillow and his eyes. It's a soft moment for the League boss, to take in those details.]

[ Dabi sleeps for long enough that Shigaraki can take in every last detail if he wants to. And then he starts to stir awake, feeling eyes on him. But even half asleep he already knows whose eyes, because this is becoming such a regular thing now. It would be stranger to wake up without Shigaraki next to him.

He opes his eyes, flexing his fingers against Shigaraki's shoulder, then moves his hand to curl into the ends of his hair.]

Hey. You're staring at me.

Hmm? Where else would you have me look?

[What they have, waking up next to each other? Shigaraki likes it. It gives him an excuse to stay in bed just a little longer and clear his mind for the day. Having Dabi in bed also keeps him warmer at night. It's just a general good thing for Shigaraki all around.]

What were you dreaming about?

Mm. Nowhere else.

[Dabi yawns, rolling onto his back, but he keeps his eyes on Shigaraki and his hand in his hair. Dabi likes this too. Waking up next to Shigaraki makes things a little easier.]

I dreamt that we were swimming in a sea of blood that was actually ketchup and we had to climb onto these giant chicken nuggets to keep us afloat.

Ketchup is disgusting. I'd rather drown if that's how your dreams went.

[He turns onto his side since Dabi's finally up and considers sitting up. He enjoys Dabi's hand in his hair far too much though and so he remains laying down.]

You would rather drown in the ketchup that you hate instead of climbing on the chicken nugget and sailing to safety? That's not a very good plan.

[He snorts, starting to curl the hair around his fingers.]

So you hate ketchup too. Is there anything you actually like? Aside from chicken nuggets.

Foodwise? It depends. [He is a picky eater, maybe he'll show Dabi how he eats his chicken nuggets.]

I like video games and cartoons. [And you.] I like analyzing things and figuring out how they work.

Depends on how fast and simple it is?

[But hey, at least they're moving past food now? That's what Dabi wanted in the first place. More of a wide range of what Shigaraki likes.]

Video games and cartoons. I like those too. [And you.] We should get you some puzzles or some shit. Bet you'd be real good at those. Probably did a lot of them in the past, right?

I like traditional sweet things too.

[But yeah, they're slowly moving past food interests.]

I'm good at puzzles. I'm good at logical ones. Number puzzles and jigsaw puzzles are too easy often times. I did a lot of them in the past, yeah. [But this is so focused on him. What of Dabi?] What about you?

Edited 2018-08-02 04:48 (UTC)

Traditional like daifuku and taiyaki or more like chocolates?

[Logical puzzles. That makes sense. He can see Shigaraki sitting there working on them for hours.]

Do you still do them, or do you only play video games now?

[Dabi lets out a soft hum, considering that question. What about him? What does he like?]

I haven't really thought about that in a long time. Never really got to do a lot of what I think I would've liked.

Daifuku and taiyaki. Chocolates are eh. [At least his sweet tooth isn't boring.]

Video games mostly. It's more interactive and challenging. You can only do so many logical puzzles before you figure out what to look for in an answer.

[He tilts his head.]

What would you have liked to do?

Agreed. Though I haven't had any of those in a long time.

[He moves back to his side and watches Shigaraki, reaching out with his other hand to take two strands into each and starts twisting them together. ]

There are probably more advanced logical puzzles now. We could probably get you some, as long as they don't make you...

[Anxious, he almost says, but he doesn't really want to call Shigaraki out like that.]

Eh. I'm sure you'd be fine.

I would've liked to play outside more. Maybe I would've kicked a ball around more. Played soccer or something. Or I could've played the drums. Something like that. I don't know.

Kurogiri can make daifuku. We can ask him to make it. [Kurogiri knows what Shigaraki likes so... mom will be able to please both kids.]

Don't make me what? [Say it you coward.] We can try but I was already doing advanced ones as a kid.

[Someone was an overachiever.]

You can still do that stuff. [Kinda. The drums thing? Definitely. Playing soccer as a villain? Not so much.]

Kurogiri can make daifuku? No shit. Now that's something I'd like to see.

[Dabi would likely rib and pester him the entire time, but then, Kurogiri is probably used to that by now anyway, he imagines.]

Nothing. I'm rethinking my words. Logic puzzles are probably good to clear the mind.

[Dabi knows Shigaraki is smart, even if he acts like a kid sometimes.]

I can still do that stuff? Yeah, not likely. Not exactly gonna kick a ball around or set up a drum set over here. Anyway, it's fine. I'm over it. I don't really like doing anything now. Except for you. I like doing you.

He makes a lot of things. [A pause.] He practically helped raise me.

[Kurogiri has seen some shit.]

A good walk clears the mind. Logic puzzles makes you use your mind.

[Doing you. Ha. He sees what Dabi did there.]

You like doing plenty of shit. [Doing Shigaraki. Annoying Shigaraki. Eating with Shigaraki. Etc.] Don't be so coy.
