"how About We Don’t Do That.”

Shit. Shit. Shit!

He was sprinting as if his life depended on it. One sibling was in his arms while the other was being chased after. This couldn’t be happening, damn it! How did this happen? Why Roro out of all kids?!

He was incredibly locked on target and nothing was going to get in his way- but what the hell was he going to do once he made it to the villain? He didn’t know but he would do whatever he could do-

Boom!

Rody’s steps hesitated at the sound as eyes set onto the hero. Oh, thank god. His running came to a brief pause as he let the hero do his job. He was holding his breath while watching the scene play out, worriedly watching his brother. The brunette was finally able to breathe once Roro was safely on the ground.

“Roro!” His voice was mixed with desperation and relief at the sight of his little brother being saved. He set Lala down carefully before running and meeting Roro half way in a very tight hug. Roro sobbed into him while Rody gave him comforting back rubs. Fuck- he hated it when his siblings cried. They didn’t deserve to experience any more sadness than they already had.

“Are you okay, Roro?” The older brother pulled away to look at the crying kid nod in response. Rody brought up his gloved hands to wipe away the tears. “Good. Good.” A big inhale and exhale to release his stress as his hands rested on tear-stained cheeks.

“I’m sorry for not paying attention more closely, but you gotta stay close to me, buddy. This is a big and unfamiliar city so you have to hold onto me and your sister. Do you understand?” The boy gave another sad nod in response as Rody proceeded to lift him up into his arms. The pink bird that seemed to follow him wherever he went had tears in her eyes as she snuggled close to the kid.

Now gray eyes finally met familiar red. The contact was held before Rody finally found his voice again.

“...Thank you, Bakugou.” That felt a little weird to say, but his words were full of gratitude. “Seriously, from the bottom of my heart: Thank you...”

Katsuki knew that patrols were part of the job, but they also bored him to tears if there were no crimes happening. It was just walking around through your assigned precinct and helping old folks across the street. The most he’d done earlier was stop a dumbass purse snatcher. It was low-grade bullshit that was easily taken care of. 

He was about to radio in to Endeavor when he saw a villain zoom by out of the corner of his eye. The villain was carrying what appeared to be a sack of money and zipping between obstacles with what appeared to be… sand…? “What the fuck…?!” he exclaimed out loud before immediately jumping into action. 

A sneer crossed his face, much like the joy that would glimmer in a predator’s eyes before pouncing on their prey. “Guess I gotta kick some fuckin’ teeth in!” he exclaimed before blasting off into the air with his hands outstretched. 

He caught up with the villain in no time–

–only to be faced with said villain holding a kid up in front of him like a shield. 

“If you blast me, you’re only gonna hurt the kid!” the older man exclaimed. “Let me go and maybe I’ll decide to let the kid go free!” 

Katsuki scowled at the cowardice of the villain. “What? Can’t face me head-on so ya gotta go involve kids in this shit?” he huffed. “Fuck, you’re lame–!” 

At the young boy, he shouted, “Watch your head, kid!” He leapt up into the air and aimed what were machine gun-like concentrated explosions all around the villain. Each shot hit the pavement around them, kicking up gravel and dust. Though they looked scattered, they were also highly precise strikes that destabilized the ground. One such hit was able to directly hit the back of the villain’s head and knock him entirely unconscious. 

Though, just as the robber went to hit the ground, Katsuki quickly braced the man just so he could grab the kid out of the guy’s arms. Whirling around, he placed the boy onto his feet. “You okay, kid?” he asked before pausing. He furrowed his eyebrows when one particular feature stuck out to him. The hair. 

The noodle looking hair…

“Oi, are you related to—-?”

He didn’t get the chance to finish his question because the kid was already running towards his older brother in tears.

this is based off of a conversation i had w some friends bwahaha. dialogue is under the readmore in case it's hard to read

roro: man, i'm not looking forward to getting my period... rody: you're not gonna get periods, roro. roro: uh. yes i am!! everyone knows you get periods during puberty. rody: ... and who told you that? roro: no one. roro: i just know that some girls i know said they got theirs and then i remembered what you said about yours. rody: what does that have to do w— rody: ouh... ouhhhh roro...

this took a while but finally finished the color wheel challenge i did on twitter :D it was so much fun !!!

Pino flew back towards him with a loud chirp. It caused Rody to look up since she had only been flying around silently before. Something must have caught her attention.

Rody froze in place at the sight suddenly in front of him. His heart felt like it was going to leap out at any moment. He was so happy but so so worried at the same time. These emotions were stirring up within him and needed to be let out.

"..Izuku."

Rody prepared for the hug once he saw Deku take his first steps. Upon impact, he stumbled back a bit but kept them both up right nonetheless. His heart shattered at the sound and sight of Izuku sobbing. He quickly wrapped his arms around him, giving a tight, comforting squeeze.

It didn't take long for Rody to start tearing up, burying his face into the green mess of hair, holding him even closer.

"...Y-You had me worried sick..."

Izuku was tired. Exhausted, honestly. Physically, emotionally, and any other type of exhausted that existed. After Uraraka managed to convince the civilians to let him rest at U.A., the last of his adrenaline drained from him. He could barely stand, so it was no surprise when his male classmates lifted him into the air and carried him off to the bath. 

Though, as he was being carted off, he managed to glance around at the familiar surroundings of the common area. Though he’d been away for nearly two months, it felt more like an entire year instead. 

Out of the corner of his eye, he spotted an oddly familiar pink bird flying across the living room. There was no way, right...? 

There was no way he was here...! 

He was just hallucinating from exhaustion. That had to be it! Still, Izuku could feel his heart ache as he was pulled into the bathroom. 

@rody-soul​

Yeah, he definitely meant well. That smile had warmth and kindness behind it. Pino warmed up to the new acquaintance a bit, giving a bright chirp in response. It was nice to meet him too!

"Oh, right." Pino fluttered up to rest on Rody's shoulder. "The name's Rody. Rody Soul." He extended a hand out to the other. "What about you, spiky?"

@rody-soul​ replied to your post:

*very slowly hides Pino out of sight*

        “Uwa–whatcha got there?”

Another pet that she would happily accept. Her next two chirps almost sounded like a ‘thank you’ towards the hero.

Since his focus was partly on Pino, Rody only managed to realize that Deku was getting closer to him at the last moment. The kiss had caught him by surprise and flustered him. Dang it, he was doing so good on being calm, cool, and collected until now.

Despite being flustered, he leaned into the kiss, returning it wholeheartedly.

continued from here.

Izuku predictably flushed a deep shade of red when Pino began pecking his cheek. Now that they were dating, Izuku knew that Pino being affectionate was now an extension of Rody doing the same thing. His heart still leapt whenever Rody said his first name. He couldn’t keep the smile off of his face even if he tried. 

Geez, he really had it bad for Rody, didn’t he? 

“Ah, y-yeah!” he stammered. “I know how much you wanna become a pilot so I thought you’d like practical things that pilots need to have.” He beamed. “I’m glad you like them!” 

He reached up his hand to pet Pino on the head. “You should show Pino what I got her!” he added with a soft laugh. The other gift bag contained the same rainbow colored bird perch they saw at the mall together. It had bells dangling off of the bottom of it. He remembered Pino enjoying the display version of the perch and and went back to the same store to purchase it. 

@rody-soul​

His hands gripped Deku’s shirt with such desperation. He didn’t want him to be sad; he didn’t want him to be sorry. Rody hated to see him in such a state. He wished he could take all the weight off of his shoulders.

“Sh.. Sh..” Rody started rubbing and patting Deku’s back, trying to give him as much comfort as he could. He could only imagine what his partner had been through. Though, it was obvious it had been a lot; far too much for a teenager to handle. He was still a kid.

“It’s okay now... You’re in here. Not out there. You can let it all out. I’m here for you.” His words sounded choked. He was full on crying now and was doing his best to not sound like he was. Rody wanted to be the support that Deku needed.

“...I would carry you up to your room if I could.” He started, trying to lighten the mood even a little bit.  A gentle hand ran up through green hair. “But I’m not as big and strong as my boyfriend, nor do I know where the room is but... a cuddle session is in high demand right now.”

Izuku was tired. Exhausted, honestly. Physically, emotionally, and any other type of exhausted that existed. After Uraraka managed to convince the civilians to let him rest at U.A., the last of his adrenaline drained from him. He could barely stand, so it was no surprise when his male classmates lifted him into the air and carried him off to the bath.

@rody-soul​

Rody perked up as he saw the stranger approach him. Confusion flashed across his face for a moment. Okay with what?

Pino was the first to react, giving her wings a firm flap as she chirped in astonishment. Rody was still taking the drawing in; gray irises observing the details.

"Woah." He was honestly flattered that someone would want to draw him. And Pino! Pino was more understandable though; she was a cutie. "This is so cool! You really captured the moment. Plus, you got my good side. Bonus points for that."

@rody-soul​ liked x for a starter! 

           “so i hope you’re okay with this,” they then held out a piece of paper that had a drawing of rody petting pino who was on his shoulder. “i couldn’t help myself and i drew the both of you since you seem to have such an adorable dynamic.”

     they had no idea who this guy was, but that never stopped them from practicing their art in real life.

🧑‍🤝‍🧑(A truly valid question I believe)

x

🧑‍🤝‍🧑 - Do they have any siblings?

((hMmM i WONDER.... I will answer anyway

Yes! Rody has a little brother and sister named Roro and Lala! Lala is the youngest of the three siblings. Since they don't have canon ages, I like to think that Rody is around 6 years older than Roro, and Roro is around 4/5 years older than Lala. 🤔 Math is hard-))
