[He looks a bit satisfied at that reaction. At least he's taking it to heart, even if he's sure they're going to have a very similar conversation soon.]
Unlike some people, I remember my meals. Just come over and I'll make dinner. I've got everything I need to make beef yakisoba, but it's hard to cut back enough for just one person.
Grading'll be your repayment. [With a smile like that, he's clearly joking.]
[ They'll have the conversation multiple times - it's sort of built into the beginning of the year at this point. But he doesn't mind so much. ]
So long as you don't have any more assignments with the question "what is hard water?" I think I can manage that as repayment. [ His tone is a little dry, as he comes over and takes a nearby chair, dropping smoothly into it and crossing his arms. ] It might even get you to bed at a reasonable hour if you have help.
[Izuku immediately groans as that question gets brought up. The bane of his existence. He should have stopped putting it down as an exam question or a homework question- or anywhere. He's so sick of 'ice' as the reply.]
We're not covering that until later. So we should be good for a few weeks.
[There's a soft smile that crosses his lips.]
You know I always like having you over. [For the company and for the crush he's never quite managed to get squared away.] I'd never deny an offer like that.
[ A small laugh escapes him at the groan, more common now than it ever was when they first started attending UA years and years ago. For as obnoxious as the answers to the question are, Izuku's muttering rant about it are always enough to make up for it. ]
I'll let you know if any students come up to me and ask me if my quirk counts as hard water.
[ Shouto's head tilts slightly, and he offers a little smile back. ]
Then that's settled. But, first, you'd better eat your katsudon before it gets cold.
