[They should've known there'd be noise if they got a room in a fucking apartment building! Though this is one reason Katsuki wanted a corner room; one less neighbor to deal with. It'd've been even better in a triangular apartment complex, but who the fuck make's triangular apartment buildings anymore?
Well Denki's gonna be off duty, but Katsuki's gonna likely only be taking two or three days off... Actually that's plenty of time for a fifth ball attempt. Something to take Denki's mind off shit.
They've been digging into what they can, even talking to the government sectors that manage electrical and power resources, including nuclear and solar aspects. More information on the way. The yakuza aren't people you can "look up" so easily. At least when coming for information that's useful or relevant...
It'll be another half hour before that car finally drives up and Katsuki's out the door before the driver can even stop. He wanted to use Cluster to cover the last ten miles without a fucking problem, but since they weren't "exactly" on a hero mission right now, the police woman was hesitant to allow Bakugou to bail. He acquiesced... irritably.
But he's heading inside, calling Denki's name out. This place is a fucking dump!]
[ It's always going to be at least one neighbor, upstairs, downstairs or next to them. At least no complaints yet, but who wants to complain when the problem is coming from someone with explosive hands and temper? The sex noises... well, not much to do about those. At least there are no kids in their part of the building.
Putting five tennis balls up his ass would honestly take Denki's mind off of anything, even kidnapppings. Maybe that's another form of therapy. Plus if they go up his hole, then he'll be the one not able to walk later and Katsuki could still go to work.
When to comes to the power plot... he just wants everyone to be ready for it. True or not. It's all he can ask for.
When the police car arrives with his heart and his family, Denki can be found inside the dilapidated building with his head on Midoriya's shoulder and Iida watching their backs. The blonde cried again, but a crybaby like the freckled hero could not say shit about that, so Denki didn't care. He was just so damn relieved.
Hearing Katsuki, he immediately stands up, almost passes out from standing up too quickly (Izuku stabilizes him) and then hurries towards the explosive hero. The rest of their friends seem to give them a moment, and the speedsters also back off a bit as Denki stops in front of his boyfriend.
Joy and anguish in one, he's diving into those arms. Fuck everyone else, he's okay now. ]
[Someone who wants to get to sleep and doesn't give two shits about Katsuki Bakugou. There are very selfish people in this world and they can be even grumpier than the explosive blonde. But luckily they haven't had the "pleasure" of dealing with such a king crab and can fuck around to their heart's content. Or their body limits.
As much as he'd like to fuck his lover into a five-tennis-ball anal stupor, it's less Kaminari's ability to walk and more not wanting his boyfriend to be alone in their apartment with his thoughts and inability to walk while Bakugou's away from him. That kind of situation after a kidnapping can do shit to people...
The problem with the power plot is they're not sure "what" to be ready for, from whom. All they knew was some kidnapper suggested that three large electrical companies had ties to the yakuza and one of them might be planning a nation-wide blackout under which they intended to take out their competitors. That's... a load of bullshit in Katsuki's mind, because it sounds like a scare tactic at best, and a distraction from the real plot at worst. Or straight up slander for no reason other than being a dick. Hence the need to look into this and confirm a real issue before acting.
Hey, considering Izuku (and even Tenya) it's likely the two of them were waterfalling beside Denki for several minutes as well. Katsuki's somewhat surprised the fucking floor isn't an ankle-deep flood right now with those three alone. Bad news for Denki being his family isn't here; they're still waiting for him back in the hospital, with the other heroes having deemed it too risky to bring them out here on the off chance it's a trap.
But Katsuki isn't stopping when Denki does and more or less slams into him, grabbing the other blonde hard in one hand and dragging him in close with the other. Muscular arms wrap around his shoulders, a gloved hand fisting in his hair as he pulls him tightly to his body. Head bow against his shoulder, eyes closing behind the black of his mask as he holds his lover close. He's here. He's alive. He's safe. That's all he can think about right now. All he wants to think about...
[ There's not a lot of thoughts happening when you have that many balls in you, but the moving around might be an issue. Thoughts without balls, though? Yeah they might be a lot. Good thing he has a lot of friends with different schedules.
With some rest and being out of that situation, maybe Denki can reassess all his information and what to do. Kyuketsuki was a bit at his mercy, to not mention him and Mizudenki, and the electric hero is going to lean in on that for more information without getting his ass kidnapped again. If there was anything else his abductor had wanted from him, it was too late now. It was done.
Thankfully Izuku held the waterfalls at bay - at least until now when the lovers are united. He might be doing some water damage, but at least the place is already a complete dump. Good news for Denki, however, is that he meant his friends-family rather than his parents-family, so he can have both. Eventually, he's busy.
...because it feels like he can breathe again, surrounded by strong arms and warmth, the scent of Katsuki's body wash and the steady beat of that heart. It's all Denki needs to feel like he's the one being jumpstarted, stress and fear and confusion fading a bit to make things clearer. He's safe. Hell, he was with the Symbol of Victory himself and this still feels safer.
All bombs, rocks and evil villain plans can go off now, it doesn't matter. He feels like he's won. ;) ]
[Katsuki plans on at least taking three days off to be with Denki after they get back. Probably going to be a number of baths and/or showers, some sex, cooking, massage, whatever the blonde wants to make him feel better. Might be getting hounded by phone calls though...
The police are hoping to get what information Denki's willing and able to give them, though they certainly won't be trying to pressure him considering he's dating Katsuki. Who would not take kindly to someone browbeating his boyfriend. Still, the quicker Denki can give them the information, the less risk there is of him forgetting something important.
Everything feels better once he's got his man back in his arms. The beat of his racing heart, the sound of his breathing, the ever-present tang of ozone around him mingling with sweat and a scent he can't identify. Arms wrapped about his body and his face pressed against him, it's all back to where it should be. He doesn't relax, can't relax, not yet, but it's easier to breathe now. Denki's back. That's the most important part. No more frantic rushes, no more worries, the sick concern churning in his stomach until the thought of eating makes him want to puke. Fears abated for the time being.
The police are rapidly swarming the area. Sorry, but they're taking the items left behind for Denki to snack on while he waited. Fingerprints, you know? (Though considering what Denki knows of the Rubber, fat chance of finding anything worthwhile on those things.) They try and inspect any tracts left behind by the car that dropped the hero off, had the helicopter do some perimeter searches to scan for anything amiss. It's gonna be a 24/7 cop crawl around the area.
Here comes the rest of 1-A to jump Denki. Sorry, Katsuki.
[ That all sounds like things he's going to need... and just a lot of time knowing that he's home and safe. Nobody's gonna hit him from behind and drag him off. Denki might be a little jumpy about people behind him for a while, honestly. As for phone calls? At least he can turn his off if he's on leave.
More benefits of having Dynamight as your boyfriend is a bit more respect than a goofy dumbass might normally get. Police will need as much as possible, of course, and Denki will take a moment when things have calmed down to really decide what he wants to do. If he wants to give his kidnapper up and break all his promises.
...his agency and HPSC might want to decide on that as well, if they want the informant or not.
Right now, though, the electric blonde doesn't have to think about anything other than how relieved he is to hold his boyfriend. Smiling and a little teary, he only pulls back a bit so that he can meet those lips with his own in a kiss. It settles him even more, because kissing Katsuki is just right. Planets align, gears click in place, the world is in order.
The police are welcome to the snacks, his hero training was still good enough to make him leave a bar and place the water bottles back on the counter. He knows quite well that they won't find anything, but he wants to at least make some things easier for them. It includes giving up the phone, which he does without a second thought.
Then his friends descend upon him and there are hugs and cheers all around. For a while, it's all joyful and energizing and he teases both Mina and Sero for being all teary even if his own lashes are wet. That wonderful commotion ends when the ambulance finally arrives, and he has to go let the EMTs check him over.
Since he's not actively dying, they simply load him up inside the vehicle, and only Katsuki is allowed to join. Sorry guys, they can't fit an entire gaggle of heroes.
...it's weirdly quiet again when they head off, but they put the stretcher up so he can sit rather than lie down. ]
Wow. [ Denki says with a more tired smile. ] I can't believe it's over.
[They're still gonna call him and want to face time him and check in on him and ask him how he's doing and generally be the amazing pestering friends they've always been. Katsuki's gonna scowl his face off when his boyfriend's taken away from him by their attention for the next few days. Or maybe Denki'll just turn his phone off and they'll be alone together.
Thing is, decisions have been made and even if there are villains they want to save, they're still villains who made their choices. Shigaraki (or Tenko), Dabi (or Touya), Himiko, Spinner, they've all had the option to do something else with their lives and they chose the route of villainy. Regardless of the reasons for their choices. They had to pay for their crimes. Same with this asshole.
Though he might be going for the bargain angle, offering the police something in exchange for clemency or a lighter sentence. Tsk, that, unfortunately, is out of Katsuki's hands. Something the police, Denki's Pro's agency, and the the other heroes will have to decide on. Dynamight's all in favor of chucking his ass in jail... and still making him talk.
Katsuki's not doing any talking right now, leaning in as lips settle against his own. Right in front of everyone, doesn't give a shit. Tastes a little salty from Denki's tears, but that's okay. God it's tempting to make this messy, his tongue right there behind his teeth, yet Katsuki forces the urge down and keeps it PG rated. Hands too.
They're very interested in the phone and immediately pass it off to one of their technical forensics who gets about dusting for prints and then searching through the phone's programming and innards. Only to yelp in surprise as the initial attempt to turn it on fails and soon the very liquefied and corroded remains of its circuits oozes out of the casing. Delayed-reaction acid bomb. Enabling Denki to make his call and talk, but as soon as he hung up and closed it, the trap sprung. While Chargebolt spent the time talking with Deku, the phone was over there on the counter melting itself into a completely useless chunk of plastic and metal.
Katsuki follows Denki to the EMTs and stayed with him while they check his head injury and the rest of his vitals, riding beside him in the ambulance as the group gathers to get ready or the return trip. The police are staying to inspect the area more while the ambulance and other vehicles drive off. It's... been a time.]
This part. [Katsuki frowns at the likely-not-so-reassuring assurance. Yes, Denki's kidnapping is over, but now the reason for his release has to be coming down the proverbial pipes. It can't be that simple.]
[ He can deal with his friends just fine, and Denki's sure he's going to have several of them fighting to hang out with him when Katsuki is working. He needs that companionship and energy, but he can still decide to just turn his phone off.
...unlike the one he borrowed here. It's a damn good thing he stayed on the line rather than trying to call different people, or that acid would have gone off in his face. Chargebolt has surprising amounts of luck these days.
Thoughts of all the process around this mess has vacated Denki's tired head, deciding to just focus on the now. He's going to be taken all the way back to the hospital his parents are waiting in, since he didn't need any emergency aid in one of the closer ones. The EMT in the back with them does say that he will need to redo some of the stitches when they arrive, and the aftereffects of the head trauma is definitely a concussion and a very minor brain contusion. Fucking Rubbers bruised his brain.
He can't go back to work until it has all healed, because if he hits his head again while it's still healing, even getting kicked, he can get second-impact syndrome and just outright die. Head wounds are serious and even more so in someone that takes a lot of neurological damage on the regular. ]
A month if I don't get Recovery Girl over??? I'm gonna go crazyyyy...
[ Denki whines, leaning back against the stretcher with a pout. Even when being dramatic, he still keeps his hand in Katsuki's, refusing to let go ever since they got into the ambulance. It's a safety line, just in case it isn't actually over.
Fuck. It's hard to admit that he's scared, but he is. ]
[Katsuki acknowledged the phone trap, though he doesn't think the acid would've sprayed Denki. Looks more like it was designed to simply melt the inside of the phone and wreck traces of any tiny thing that could've been hacked. They're going to analyze the acid compound and see if there's something there that might point to the users. If they're in luck, it won't be something as simple as... oh, battery acid and corrosive bleach/vinegar compounds.
(It's totally something simple and lacking in traces, like battery acid... Maybe the Rubbers liked their little charge.)
Recovery Girl should be able to help heal his concussion and the contusion, as well as the fracture in his skull and split across his head. He's gonna be sporting a bandage bandana for a day or so, and no sudden motions with his head for a few hours. Plus some bed rest while he recovers. It's not just the physical damage that has to be taken care of.
Katsuki isn't planning on letting Denki go back out to the field until he's 100% better. Even though he's the one that was snarling at Iida to let him go back and resume fighting with two fucking holes in his shoulder and impaled through his guts. To say nothing of the later injuries he fought through. Protective boyfriend is protective.]
Stop fucking griping. She'll come over soon enough. At best you'll be down for a week. [Katsuki scowls at him as he curls his hand around his boyfriend's, other hand propped on his own thigh for now and Grenadier Bracers sitting beside him on the bench. The nurse is working on cleaning Denki's head and applying medicine to the cut in preparation for restitching it at the hospital. And checking his other vitals with some scans.]
[ Definitely seems like they had a little soft spot for him, if that was the case. Band had been really nice to him, too, so maybe Denki had won them over a little. He'll have to give up details about them, though, since they were the ones that actually took him and bashed his head. It was definitely not their first kidnapping and they seemed to be hired by Kyūketsuki, so they might now mainly work for him.
He had to make sure they couldn't take someone else. Nice or not, they were going to cause more trouble.
Man, what are they gonna do when Recovery Girl passes away? UA needs their healing help, and so do the heroes. She's already looking so much older than she did when they went to school, people would be laid out for months every time there was a battle. Hell, the blonde didn't even know there was a fracture, too. They really made a mess of his head, and he's lucky that all his moving around during the few days didn't make it worse.
Oh, he's so calling Katsuki out on his hypocrisy if he says anything anything about him needing to be 100%. The man has been half-dead more than once and still crawled to his feet to keep fighting. Denki likes that his boyfriend is protective, and the electric blonde isn't the kind of person to actually do crazy things like that... but come on. He has no leg to stand on in that argument. ]
I knowwwwww...
[ It's an easy tell to see if Denki feels pretty okay - he's loud and obnoxious about it. It's when the blonde turns quiet when things are bad, like at the start of their phone conversation. Right now he's whiny and dramatically flinches when the poor nurse is cleaning his wound.
At least his vitals look good, and he has to make a few sparks for the quirk check once the EMT hears about the black market cuffs. ]
[Then again, they also might be hired kidnappers, not killers. Considering the history behind Band and Condom King, it's not people in general they have issue with, but rather the business and government that stole their own from beneath them. Hell if anyone knows whether they're in leagues with someone in the shadows or simply hired help Kyuketsuki used. Things to ponder. As for telling the cops about them, go for it, Denki. They're not exactly unknown, as he'll come to find out.
But causing trouble is definitely what they do. Of course, it's because unscrupulous people caused trouble for them first. What goes around comes around, right?
Not gonna lie, I'm asking myself the same question about U.A. and Recovery Girl... Considering there ability to transfer Quirks is a thing, either through All for One or through the old doctor making copies, perhaps there's a way they can pass her Quirk from one to another? Or since there are stronger Quirks with the new generation of kids, someone'll come along with a Quirk that even surpasses hers. Who knows.
He might have to call him out on it. Katsuki's going to to snarl (concerned like) at him if he tries to go out with his concussion still not treated. Though once he's got a RG kiss and pronounced okay by her, it's likely the blonde won't be a stickler about it. He'll mostly be concerned with Denki's mental state. BUT that all depends on later. Katsuki's still sitting beside him with a hand held in his, focusing on him with a quiet scowl.]
Stop being dramatic. It can't hurt that much. [Calling Denki out on that whine and exaggerated flinch as his bloody wound gets cleaned off and out. Good to know his Quirk works and one of the medics gives Kaminari one of the machine cables to power if he wants the exercise (or just something to do) while they drive.]
We can go back home tomorrow after the hospital clears you.
[ That is also very fair. Another case of villains being angry at the establishment for being wrongly treated. Kidnapping random heroes seems like a weird choice of payback, but you do what you need to do to get money and a reputation. If they're more than hired goons... honestly, Denki isn't thinking that far.
'What goes around, comes around' should not extend to people not involved with the problem in the first place! That's where they misstepped in the electric hero's opinion, and he's going to give them up to the police... including the weird place they stopped at.
Eri might be the next Recovery Girl, honestly. The kid was getting better at controlling her quirk, and if she could wield it however she wanted, it wouldn't be an issue. Students, heroes... she could fix anyone. The only drawback would be protecting her from getting stolen by villains or desperate civilians.
They might have some spats about it, but since Denki isn't Katsuki, he'll actually do the resting. He'll be obnoxious about it, but he will rest. Mental state, though... that is still up in the air. He's fine now, but that doesn't mean anything. He could have a breakdown tomorrow, next week, next month. Who knows.
The explosive hero's admonishing of his boyfriend is backed up by the medic, who whispers that he gave the wounded blonde a numbing medicine so it doesn't hurt whatsoever. Denki's just being a brat.
...a happily distracted one when he gets to play with a cable. ]
Ugh I hope so. I've been longing for our bed. It's hard to sleep without you, or at least your scent.
[Denki likely has nothing to do with the Rubbers' ambitions. As Band said, it was nothing personal; he's just a paycheck. One more out of many missions they've taken. Katsuki's left to think on all sorts of things while waiting for Denki to be found and rescued. Why they kidnapped him, why they let him go, who the people are behind the actions, and what their goal is.
It's likely the Rubbers already figured Denki's mouth had no promised key regarding their involvement, unlike Kyuketsuki's. The fact none of the three had a word to say regarding that probably suggests they're either ready for it or don't really care. As for the safe house... have fun with that, Denki. It's a BnB.
Eri is honestly gonna have such potential. Only took her a few months to recover Mirio's Quirk. Hawks was next in line, cause after everything he went through, the man deserved his wings. Katsuki had no problem with that. Fumikage was thrilled. Well, as thrilled as their Bird Brain ever emotes. Kai... jury's still out on giving Overhaul his Quirk back, despite the positives he could do if he could be convinced to cooperate.
Katsuki will at least want to make sure Denki has 24 hour bedrest and homebound attention after he gets out of the hospital. He knows that it's going to be rough. Waking up and immediately wondering if it was all a dream... or the inability to get to sleep out of fear that it's all a dream. He'll take the obnoxious boyfriend as payment for that comfort.
Doesn't stop the small smile from tying to tug itself into existence at the corner of his mouth when the electric hero starts to play with the cable. Denki. King of fidget spinners and finger fiddles. Though as soon as Kaminari starts to talk real sappy, Bakugou tenses up, shoulders hunching towards his collar.]
Urusei! We're not alone, dammit! [Don't talk about that shit when there's people staring right down at them!
Eri's future is going to be outstanding and the younger generations are definitely gonna change the world. Hawks did deserve his wings back, especially after everything he's already sacrificed. Murderer or not, he was a victim as well. As for Kai? Well, that would be a dangerous thing. He would have to change before he could help people, and his mind was already quite fucked up after losing his hands.
Finding out it was all a dream and he's somehow still captured is honestly one of Denki's biggest fears right now. What if he's really on the floor in some dungeon, pumped full of drugs and hallucinating things? Or even worse, did he short circuit his brain into mush and this entire thing is just in his mind? He was never kidnapped at all and now nobody would believe him?
It's an easy spiral to fall into.
The cable is weirdly helping to take his mind off of anything, though, and between that and his other hand in his boyfriend's, he's doing pretty good. Especially when he gets a rise out of said boyfriend (and the medics). ]
What, you don't want the world to know I sleep happily in our bed? Big strong arms around me?
[Gonna put that poor old woman out of a job. Now who's evil?
Katsuki can't call what Hawks did murder. It just... There's a difference between what Hawks did to Twice and what those bastards did to other Pros. Every hero who raided that mansion wasn't out to kill anyone. But Twice would've murdered as many heroes as he had to in order to get what he wanted. The war left so many scars, so many questions, so many life lessons... Victim, sacrifice, hero, villain, even Bakugou's left wondering sometimes. But wondering doesn't make him waver; he's never doubted himself.
They've licked their wounds. It's time to move forward.
He understands that fear. The terror of lying in bed at night and wondering if all of this would disappear the next time he opened his eyes. Perhaps it'd been a little easier for Katsuki, since he'd only been gone and rescued within 24 hours. Denki, however, had gone almost 5 days kidnapped. The shit it's going to put his brain through is ridiculous. It's why he has to be there with him. To keep him out of that damn mental spiral.
This fucking pillow right here would be a great way to keep him out of that spiral! BY SLAMMING IT ONTO HIS FACE! Katsuki's seething quickly as Denki has his fucking yucks at his expense. Saying that kinda crap in front of the two paramedics! SHUT UP!] THEY DON'T NEED TO KNOW THAT SHIT!! DENKI!! SWEAR TO GOD IF YOU DON'T-!!
[The medics are laughing at the scene, enjoying that Kaminari's healthy enough to rile Bakugou up again.]
[ She is! With weird code words and shit! (Okay, he might just inform the police, not send a whole hero squad after one old lady.)
Moving forward is all they can do if they don't want to just lay down and give up. Denki isn't going to do that either, but it still feels like he's facing some open, terrifying chasm and the safety harness he has is made of friends and family. How heavy he's going to be depends on how bad things get in his head after this, and while he knows he can never be so heavy that the harness snaps, it's still going to be a lot of strain.
He doesn't like that. He's the one who makes other people feel better.
Guilt is a weird spiral, put a pillow to the face would be a good stopper. So is the laughter of the medics and the flustered anger from his boyfriend. The things that makes Denki happy. ]
Okay, okay! Don't blow the ambulance up, babe.
[ He says with a smile and a little wink, the most alive he's looked since they picked him up. The electric blonde still hasn't let go of that hand, though. It might as well be glued in his own, no matter how much he's fiddling with the cable.
It will probably end up in is mouth sooner or later. The cable, not the hand. ]
[No one's giving up. Katsuki recognizes what Denki's going through, the question of how he's supposed to move forward from this, and yet knowing he has to or else the people who hurt him will win. For him, relying on other people for support and comfort came extremely hard, and he still has issues accepting it when offered and acknowledging it when he needs it. But he knows they're there for him and they're strong enough to do so. That same strength will carry Denki as well, until he's ready to go and then some. They're here for the strain, as long as it has to go.
He can make his friends feel better by letting them help him feel better. One of those sappy circular reasoning.
Glad to know his damn embarrassment gets those endorphins flooding! Katsuki's still snarling at him, but unable to get a pillow to shove over his stupid smiling face. Keep that damn sappy shit to the bedroom where no one can hear it but him!]
Don't keep pissing me off then!
[One eye twitching and the corner of his mouth curling up in that psycho pissed-off grin that promises some hell later on. Because he is glad to see his boyfriend's mood improving, despite how he's going about it. And he's not crushing his hand, so that's a good thing. The medics are keeping mind on Chargebolt's vitals during the moment, not worried about Dynamight's aggressive flustered nature.]
Once the old bag checks you out, you'll probably be overnight in the hospital and then cleared tomorrow to go home.
[ Friendship is amazing and Denki is so glad he he has them. Everyone in the class ended up closer than most after the things they went through, and even more so the little friends within friends that he regrets leaving at the scene... but no way to put the whole squad in the ambulance. He can lean on them, and lacking that unwavering pride of his boyfriend, he's more likely to do so.
He'll get there eventually. Hopefully.
Right now he's all smiles and laughter, even if at Katsuki's expense, and he knows that crazy look. He deserves it, and it's somehow intimidating and endearing at the same time. The noble beast. ]
Ugghh I don't want to stay overnightttt...
[ Denki whines again, but he knows they have to make sure he's okay. Maybe get a CT scan or something, and make sure he's not bugged or has anything weird put inside. Who knows, he was out for a whole damn day.
Leaning back against the stretcher, the cable finally goes in his mouth like a toddler (or a guy with an oral fixation). He'll keep chatting and making jokes all the way to the hospital. ]
[Most of their class is heading back in a police convoy, though about a third of the cops remain on site to continue investigating. Yaoyorozu, Jirou, and Shouji are staying to help with the investigation, being good at tracking, discovery, and minute details. A few others will be taking the helicopter back once it's finished its circles. They'll all reconvene later.
Katsuki knows Denki'll pull through it. He did. He trusts his boyfriend's strength to do the same.
Even if he wants to stuff a pillow down his damn throat right now. God, he really has to pick this time to go all out on the boyfriend teasing! Katsuki glares at him and rubs the side of his head in annoyance. And to avoid braining him.]
You'll fucking stay wherever the doctors say and however long you need to.
[Even with Recovery Girl on station, there's going to be some period of rest and check ups to attend to. Head injuries aren't to be taken lightly. Lasting damage could occur and Denki already has enough going on with his head. Plus the potential of villains doing something weird to him before releasing him...
Katsuki notices the cable going in Denki's mouth and he frowns inside his head. Shit... That's kind of a thing now. But the trip to the hospital is thankfully uneventful and Katsuki stays beside Denki's stretcher while his parents meet him on the other.
[ The rest of the ride in the ambulance is peaceful and funny, but the chaos in the hospital kind of sucks. Sure, he's happy to see his parents and Katsuki's as well, but that and all the people checking up on him is draining his batteries rather than charging them like it usually does.
He gets a ct scan (and a headache from the thumping sound from the machine), then his stitches are replaced, head is wrapped up professionally and he gets poked and prodded until he's ready to short out just to stop noticing all the fussing.
Finally, finally he's sent to a room for his overnight stay, as Katsuki is right about the doctors wanting to keep an eye on him. Recovery Girl was going to arrive in a little while, which leaves a blessed moment of just Katsuki and their families. Denki doesn't quite care, though, just looking at his boyfriend with a tired smile. The beep of his pulse check is annoying as hell, but he can tune it out for now.
Better beeping than a flatline, after all. ]
That was terrible. I'm never getting kidnapped or hit over the head again.
[ His mom shakes her head at that, exasperated by her son. She and his dad goes to make a few phone calls, and that's fine. He's not a little kid any more. ]
[Katsuki stays with Denki the entire time. Yeah, it's a busy time at the hospital and they're all fussing over him, but at least Recovery Girl will be there to tend to him once the CT scan is taken care of; she'll able to check on his brain functions once she arrives. While it's true he's got a concussion and even a small fracture in his skull, there doesn't seem to be any brain damage from the injury that the doctors can tell. They'll want to run some tests later to be sure, check his memory, reaction speed, attention, and quirk. For now, he's able to rest. Before he gets the chance to short out and shout out.
Katsuki remains by his boyfriend's bedside, of course letting his parents stay, despite the selfish part of him wanting to just have Denki's undivided attention. Alone. But that's not going to happen or a while. Not until they're back in their apartment and they're able to rest together. He stays in his chair next to the bed, leaning back against the seat and flipping through a motorcycle magazine for the time being. Having been in the hospital a few times before, he's able to tune the beeping out.]
Gonna have to put more work in your spatial awareness and reaction speed then. [Since headshots are always going to be in an enemy's attempt arsenal. Katsuki closes the magazine once Denki's parents leave and as soon as they're gone, promptly leans over and kisses his boyfriend full on the mouth.]
[ He's a little relieved to see his parents leave, because even if he loves them they were never really close, and Denki wants his alone time with the person who fully understands him. He doesn't want coddling right now, just gentle but honest truth.
...it's exactly what he gets, and the electric blonde grins. He knows his boyfriend. ]
I plan on it.
[ Then they're kissing. It draws a full-body quiver from Denki; not exactly arousal but something above that. He sinks into it, cupping Katsuki's cheek and smiling a little. Yeah, he needed that like air.
His lover might have been trying to keep it PG for the wholeass 1-A when Denki kissed him back then, but they're alone now and if the poor wounded guy in the sickbed wants to add tongue, nobody can judge him! ]
[Not sure a full lip lock enough to suck the wind out of his lungs equates to gentle but honest... That's what he's getting though. Katsuki presses his hands to the bed, half to hold himself up, half to prevent himself from climbing right atop the damn thing and making out with his boyfriend as much as he really wants to. Head injury, Katsuki. Not the best time to drive Denki wild in the middle of the damn hospital.
Made even worse when he feels that head-to-toe shudder running down his boyfriend's body. God, he's been so fucking worried about him, not knowing why he was taken or where he'd gone. Just that he needed to find him, get him back, and no answers were coming anywhere. Frustrations mounted, his mood exploded, and... shit, he needs this right now. His touch, his presence, tangible reminders that Denki's right here. Found and home.
Tongue is totally allowed. Though he's gonna try not to go further than that... even though his mind's sliding "blowjob's below the belt" across his brain's "counter" like it was drugs.]
[ The suggestion to work more on the weakness that started this shit was, however. Kissing his soul out from his body? Also very acceptable. It feels like things are right and he can forget about all of the other stuff right now. Especially when Katsuki looks like he's holding himself back from crawling into the bed with him.
It's unfortunately very obvious they can't do anything fun right now, not only since Recovery Girl was on her way but the electric blonde's heart rate is going up and beeping quicker on the machine. He's definitely excited, and Denki longs for his boyfriend's touch. He can't be stressed or scared if he's brought to heaven and back by that mouth - same idea on the 'dick is far away from his head' part. ]
Hospital's gonna think I'm having a heart attack. Listen how happy and excited you make me, babe. [ He says, a little more softly as his honey eyes meet those red. ] No kidnapping or weird bullshit like this makes my heart go fast in a good way. Just you... and maybe cardio, but we're not counting that.
[ It's good but in an evil way, and to be fair Katsuki's usually the one pushing him so it still counts. ]
When we get home and my head is on straight we're doing some very not straight things.
[ There's another kiss, promising and teasing. Very Denki. ]
[That's how Katsuki operates. Address the weaknesses, eliminate them, and move forward, stronger and better than before. But hell if he could be prevented from doing what he'd been missing for the past five days. The feeling of Denki's lips, soft and smooth and warm, with a tiny tingle of electric tang that's entirely his boyfriend's unique trait alone.
He has to hold himself back; the hospital would be very frowning if Katsuki started getting into bed with someone with a head injury. And yeah, those damn heart and brain monitors made the potential of anything more kinky under the sheets extremely obvious. He'll continue to debate on the thought of Denki's dick being further down, but knowing his electric man, that would get his heart racing and the incriminating sounds would be going off anyways.]
They can deal with it for a fucking bit. [Growled against those wonderful lips. Red eyes burn down at the golden gaze below him, obviously wanting to do so much more and quivering slightly in frustration at having to curb his urges.] Damn, looks like the brain damage is severe, saying such fucking sappy and stupid things to me.
[Denki knows well enough by now that his sappy and stupid things are treasured, not tolerated as they used to, and Katsuki only gripes about them for appearances and the lingering "jerk" that he'll never fully grow out of. It warms his heart and relieves him of a lot of his stress to hear those kind of words from his boyfriend.]
Fuck, don't talk like that. [Muttered into the kiss.] It's fucking hard to hold back right now as it is.
no subject
Well Denki's gonna be off duty, but Katsuki's gonna likely only be taking two or three days off... Actually that's plenty of time for a fifth ball attempt. Something to take Denki's mind off shit.
They've been digging into what they can, even talking to the government sectors that manage electrical and power resources, including nuclear and solar aspects. More information on the way. The yakuza aren't people you can "look up" so easily. At least when coming for information that's useful or relevant...
It'll be another half hour before that car finally drives up and Katsuki's out the door before the driver can even stop. He wanted to use Cluster to cover the last ten miles without a fucking problem, but since they weren't "exactly" on a hero mission right now, the police woman was hesitant to allow Bakugou to bail. He acquiesced... irritably.
But he's heading inside, calling Denki's name out. This place is a fucking dump!]
no subject
Putting five tennis balls up his ass would honestly take Denki's mind off of anything, even kidnapppings. Maybe that's another form of therapy. Plus if they go up his hole, then he'll be the one not able to walk later and Katsuki could still go to work.
When to comes to the power plot... he just wants everyone to be ready for it. True or not. It's all he can ask for.
When the police car arrives with his heart and his family, Denki can be found inside the dilapidated building with his head on Midoriya's shoulder and Iida watching their backs. The blonde cried again, but a crybaby like the freckled hero could not say shit about that, so Denki didn't care. He was just so damn relieved.
Hearing Katsuki, he immediately stands up, almost passes out from standing up too quickly (Izuku stabilizes him) and then hurries towards the explosive hero. The rest of their friends seem to give them a moment, and the speedsters also back off a bit as Denki stops in front of his boyfriend.
Joy and anguish in one, he's diving into those arms. Fuck everyone else, he's okay now. ]
no subject
As much as he'd like to fuck his lover into a five-tennis-ball anal stupor, it's less Kaminari's ability to walk and more not wanting his boyfriend to be alone in their apartment with his thoughts and inability to walk while Bakugou's away from him. That kind of situation after a kidnapping can do shit to people...
The problem with the power plot is they're not sure "what" to be ready for, from whom. All they knew was some kidnapper suggested that three large electrical companies had ties to the yakuza and one of them might be planning a nation-wide blackout under which they intended to take out their competitors. That's... a load of bullshit in Katsuki's mind, because it sounds like a scare tactic at best, and a distraction from the real plot at worst. Or straight up slander for no reason other than being a dick. Hence the need to look into this and confirm a real issue before acting.
Hey, considering Izuku (and even Tenya) it's likely the two of them were waterfalling beside Denki for several minutes as well. Katsuki's somewhat surprised the fucking floor isn't an ankle-deep flood right now with those three alone. Bad news for Denki being his family isn't here; they're still waiting for him back in the hospital, with the other heroes having deemed it too risky to bring them out here on the off chance it's a trap.
But Katsuki isn't stopping when Denki does and more or less slams into him, grabbing the other blonde hard in one hand and dragging him in close with the other. Muscular arms wrap around his shoulders, a gloved hand fisting in his hair as he pulls him tightly to his body. Head bow against his shoulder, eyes closing behind the black of his mask as he holds his lover close. He's here. He's alive. He's safe. That's all he can think about right now. All he wants to think about...
And then the bombs go off. Dun, dun, dun.]no subject
With some rest and being out of that situation, maybe Denki can reassess all his information and what to do. Kyuketsuki was a bit at his mercy, to not mention him and Mizudenki, and the electric hero is going to lean in on that for more information without getting his ass kidnapped again. If there was anything else his abductor had wanted from him, it was too late now. It was done.
Thankfully Izuku held the waterfalls at bay - at least until now when the lovers are united. He might be doing some water damage, but at least the place is already a complete dump. Good news for Denki, however, is that he meant his friends-family rather than his parents-family, so he can have both. Eventually, he's busy.
...because it feels like he can breathe again, surrounded by strong arms and warmth, the scent of Katsuki's body wash and the steady beat of that heart. It's all Denki needs to feel like he's the one being jumpstarted, stress and fear and confusion fading a bit to make things clearer. He's safe. Hell, he was with the Symbol of Victory himself and this still feels safer.
All bombs, rocks and evil villain plans can go off now, it doesn't matter. He feels like he's won.
;)]no subject
The police are hoping to get what information Denki's willing and able to give them, though they certainly won't be trying to pressure him considering he's dating Katsuki. Who would not take kindly to someone browbeating his boyfriend. Still, the quicker Denki can give them the information, the less risk there is of him forgetting something important.
Everything feels better once he's got his man back in his arms. The beat of his racing heart, the sound of his breathing, the ever-present tang of ozone around him mingling with sweat and a scent he can't identify. Arms wrapped about his body and his face pressed against him, it's all back to where it should be. He doesn't relax, can't relax, not yet, but it's easier to breathe now. Denki's back. That's the most important part. No more frantic rushes, no more worries, the sick concern churning in his stomach until the thought of eating makes him want to puke. Fears abated for the time being.
The police are rapidly swarming the area. Sorry, but they're taking the items left behind for Denki to snack on while he waited. Fingerprints, you know? (Though considering what Denki knows of the Rubber, fat chance of finding anything worthwhile on those things.) They try and inspect any tracts left behind by the car that dropped the hero off, had the helicopter do some perimeter searches to scan for anything amiss. It's gonna be a 24/7 cop crawl around the area.
Here comes the rest of 1-A to jump Denki. Sorry, Katsuki.
Move aside or get smushed with him.]
no subject
More benefits of having Dynamight as your boyfriend is a bit more respect than a goofy dumbass might normally get. Police will need as much as possible, of course, and Denki will take a moment when things have calmed down to really decide what he wants to do. If he wants to give his kidnapper up and break all his promises.
...his agency and HPSC might want to decide on that as well, if they want the informant or not.
Right now, though, the electric blonde doesn't have to think about anything other than how relieved he is to hold his boyfriend. Smiling and a little teary, he only pulls back a bit so that he can meet those lips with his own in a kiss. It settles him even more, because kissing Katsuki is just right. Planets align, gears click in place, the world is in order.
The police are welcome to the snacks, his hero training was still good enough to make him leave a bar and place the water bottles back on the counter. He knows quite well that they won't find anything, but he wants to at least make some things easier for them. It includes giving up the phone, which he does without a second thought.
Then his friends descend upon him and there are hugs and cheers all around. For a while, it's all joyful and energizing and he teases both Mina and Sero for being all teary even if his own lashes are wet. That wonderful commotion ends when the ambulance finally arrives, and he has to go let the EMTs check him over.
Since he's not actively dying, they simply load him up inside the vehicle, and only Katsuki is allowed to join. Sorry guys, they can't fit an entire gaggle of heroes.
...it's weirdly quiet again when they head off, but they put the stretcher up so he can sit rather than lie down. ]
Wow. [ Denki says with a more tired smile. ] I can't believe it's over.
no subject
Thing is, decisions have been made and even if there are villains they want to save, they're still villains who made their choices. Shigaraki (or Tenko), Dabi (or Touya), Himiko, Spinner, they've all had the option to do something else with their lives and they chose the route of villainy. Regardless of the reasons for their choices. They had to pay for their crimes. Same with this asshole.
Though he might be going for the bargain angle, offering the police something in exchange for clemency or a lighter sentence. Tsk, that, unfortunately, is out of Katsuki's hands. Something the police, Denki's Pro's agency, and the the other heroes will have to decide on. Dynamight's all in favor of chucking his ass in jail... and still making him talk.
Katsuki's not doing any talking right now, leaning in as lips settle against his own. Right in front of everyone, doesn't give a shit. Tastes a little salty from Denki's tears, but that's okay. God it's tempting to make this messy, his tongue right there behind his teeth, yet Katsuki forces the urge down and keeps it PG rated. Hands too.
They're very interested in the phone and immediately pass it off to one of their technical forensics who gets about dusting for prints and then searching through the phone's programming and innards. Only to yelp in surprise as the initial attempt to turn it on fails and soon the very liquefied and corroded remains of its circuits oozes out of the casing. Delayed-reaction acid bomb. Enabling Denki to make his call and talk, but as soon as he hung up and closed it, the trap sprung. While Chargebolt spent the time talking with Deku, the phone was over there on the counter melting itself into a completely useless chunk of plastic and metal.
Katsuki follows Denki to the EMTs and stayed with him while they check his head injury and the rest of his vitals, riding beside him in the ambulance as the group gathers to get ready or the return trip. The police are staying to inspect the area more while the ambulance and other vehicles drive off. It's... been a time.]
This part. [Katsuki frowns at the likely-not-so-reassuring assurance. Yes, Denki's kidnapping is over, but now the reason for his release has to be coming down the proverbial pipes. It can't be that simple.]
no subject
...unlike the one he borrowed here. It's a damn good thing he stayed on the line rather than trying to call different people, or that acid would have gone off in his face. Chargebolt has surprising amounts of luck these days.
Thoughts of all the process around this mess has vacated Denki's tired head, deciding to just focus on the now. He's going to be taken all the way back to the hospital his parents are waiting in, since he didn't need any emergency aid in one of the closer ones. The EMT in the back with them does say that he will need to redo some of the stitches when they arrive, and the aftereffects of the head trauma is definitely a concussion and a very minor brain contusion. Fucking Rubbers bruised his brain.
He can't go back to work until it has all healed, because if he hits his head again while it's still healing, even getting kicked, he can get second-impact syndrome and just outright die. Head wounds are serious and even more so in someone that takes a lot of neurological damage on the regular. ]
A month if I don't get Recovery Girl over??? I'm gonna go crazyyyy...
[ Denki whines, leaning back against the stretcher with a pout. Even when being dramatic, he still keeps his hand in Katsuki's, refusing to let go ever since they got into the ambulance. It's a safety line, just in case it isn't actually over.
Fuck. It's hard to admit that he's scared, but he is. ]
no subject
(It's totally something simple and lacking in traces, like battery acid... Maybe the Rubbers liked their little charge.)
Recovery Girl should be able to help heal his concussion and the contusion, as well as the fracture in his skull and split across his head. He's gonna be sporting a bandage bandana for a day or so, and no sudden motions with his head for a few hours. Plus some bed rest while he recovers. It's not just the physical damage that has to be taken care of.
Katsuki isn't planning on letting Denki go back out to the field until he's 100% better. Even though he's the one that was snarling at Iida to let him go back and resume fighting with two fucking holes in his shoulder and impaled through his guts. To say nothing of the later injuries he fought through. Protective boyfriend is protective.]
Stop fucking griping. She'll come over soon enough. At best you'll be down for a week. [Katsuki scowls at him as he curls his hand around his boyfriend's, other hand propped on his own thigh for now and Grenadier Bracers sitting beside him on the bench. The nurse is working on cleaning Denki's head and applying medicine to the cut in preparation for restitching it at the hospital. And checking his other vitals with some scans.]
no subject
He had to make sure they couldn't take someone else. Nice or not, they were going to cause more trouble.
Man, what are they gonna do when Recovery Girl passes away? UA needs their healing help, and so do the heroes. She's already looking so much older than she did when they went to school, people would be laid out for months every time there was a battle. Hell, the blonde didn't even know there was a fracture, too. They really made a mess of his head, and he's lucky that all his moving around during the few days didn't make it worse.
Oh, he's so calling Katsuki out on his hypocrisy if he says anything anything about him needing to be 100%. The man has been half-dead more than once and still crawled to his feet to keep fighting. Denki likes that his boyfriend is protective, and the electric blonde isn't the kind of person to actually do crazy things like that... but come on. He has no leg to stand on in that argument. ]
I knowwwwww...
[ It's an easy tell to see if Denki feels pretty okay - he's loud and obnoxious about it. It's when the blonde turns quiet when things are bad, like at the start of their phone conversation. Right now he's whiny and dramatically flinches when the poor nurse is cleaning his wound.
At least his vitals look good, and he has to make a few sparks for the quirk check once the EMT hears about the black market cuffs. ]
no subject
But causing trouble is definitely what they do. Of course, it's because unscrupulous people caused trouble for them first. What goes around comes around, right?
Not gonna lie, I'm asking myself the same question about U.A. and Recovery Girl...Considering there ability to transfer Quirks is a thing, either through All for One or through the old doctor making copies, perhaps there's a way they can pass her Quirk from one to another? Or since there are stronger Quirks with the new generation of kids, someone'll come along with a Quirk that even surpasses hers. Who knows.He might have to call him out on it. Katsuki's going to to snarl (concerned like) at him if he tries to go out with his concussion still not treated. Though once he's got a RG kiss and pronounced okay by her, it's likely the blonde won't be a stickler about it. He'll mostly be concerned with Denki's mental state. BUT that all depends on later. Katsuki's still sitting beside him with a hand held in his, focusing on him with a quiet scowl.]
Stop being dramatic. It can't hurt that much. [Calling Denki out on that whine and exaggerated flinch as his bloody wound gets cleaned off and out. Good to know his Quirk works and one of the medics gives Kaminari one of the machine cables to power if he wants the exercise (or just something to do) while they drive.]
We can go back home tomorrow after the hospital clears you.
no subject
'What goes around, comes around' should not extend to people not involved with the problem in the first place! That's where they misstepped in the electric hero's opinion, and he's going to give them up to the police... including the weird place they stopped at.
Eri might be the next Recovery Girl, honestly. The kid was getting better at controlling her quirk, and if she could wield it however she wanted, it wouldn't be an issue. Students, heroes... she could fix anyone. The only drawback would be protecting her from getting stolen by villains or desperate civilians.
They might have some spats about it, but since Denki isn't Katsuki, he'll actually do the resting. He'll be obnoxious about it, but he will rest. Mental state, though... that is still up in the air. He's fine now, but that doesn't mean anything. He could have a breakdown tomorrow, next week, next month. Who knows.
The explosive hero's admonishing of his boyfriend is backed up by the medic, who whispers that he gave the wounded blonde a numbing medicine so it doesn't hurt whatsoever. Denki's just being a brat.
...a happily distracted one when he gets to play with a cable. ]
Ugh I hope so. I've been longing for our bed. It's hard to sleep without you, or at least your scent.
no subject
It's likely the Rubbers already figured Denki's mouth had no promised key regarding their involvement, unlike Kyuketsuki's. The fact none of the three had a word to say regarding that probably suggests they're either ready for it or don't really care. As for the safe house... have fun with that, Denki. It's a BnB.
Eri is honestly gonna have such potential. Only took her a few months to recover Mirio's Quirk. Hawks was next in line, cause after everything he went through, the man deserved his wings. Katsuki had no problem with that. Fumikage was thrilled. Well, as thrilled as their Bird Brain ever emotes. Kai... jury's still out on giving Overhaul his Quirk back, despite the positives he could do if he could be convinced to cooperate.
Katsuki will at least want to make sure Denki has 24 hour bedrest and homebound attention after he gets out of the hospital. He knows that it's going to be rough. Waking up and immediately wondering if it was all a dream... or the inability to get to sleep out of fear that it's all a dream. He'll take the obnoxious boyfriend as payment for that comfort.
Doesn't stop the small smile from tying to tug itself into existence at the corner of his mouth when the electric hero starts to play with the cable. Denki. King of fidget spinners and finger fiddles. Though as soon as Kaminari starts to talk real sappy, Bakugou tenses up, shoulders hunching towards his collar.]
Urusei! We're not alone, dammit! [Don't talk about that shit when there's people staring right down at them!
Who are now smiling and giggling.]
no subject
Eri's future is going to be outstanding and the younger generations are definitely gonna change the world. Hawks did deserve his wings back, especially after everything he's already sacrificed. Murderer or not, he was a victim as well. As for Kai? Well, that would be a dangerous thing. He would have to change before he could help people, and his mind was already quite fucked up after losing his hands.
Finding out it was all a dream and he's somehow still captured is honestly one of Denki's biggest fears right now. What if he's really on the floor in some dungeon, pumped full of drugs and hallucinating things? Or even worse, did he short circuit his brain into mush and this entire thing is just in his mind? He was never kidnapped at all and now nobody would believe him?
It's an easy spiral to fall into.
The cable is weirdly helping to take his mind off of anything, though, and between that and his other hand in his boyfriend's, he's doing pretty good. Especially when he gets a rise out of said boyfriend (and the medics). ]
What, you don't want the world to know I sleep happily in our bed? Big strong arms around me?
no subject
Katsuki can't call what Hawks did murder. It just... There's a difference between what Hawks did to Twice and what those bastards did to other Pros. Every hero who raided that mansion wasn't out to kill anyone. But Twice would've murdered as many heroes as he had to in order to get what he wanted. The war left so many scars, so many questions, so many life lessons... Victim, sacrifice, hero, villain, even Bakugou's left wondering sometimes. But wondering doesn't make him waver; he's never doubted himself.
They've licked their wounds. It's time to move forward.
He understands that fear. The terror of lying in bed at night and wondering if all of this would disappear the next time he opened his eyes. Perhaps it'd been a little easier for Katsuki, since he'd only been gone and rescued within 24 hours. Denki, however, had gone almost 5 days kidnapped. The shit it's going to put his brain through is ridiculous. It's why he has to be there with him. To keep him out of that damn mental spiral.
This fucking pillow right here would be a great way to keep him out of that spiral! BY SLAMMING IT ONTO HIS FACE! Katsuki's seething quickly as Denki has his fucking yucks at his expense. Saying that kinda crap in front of the two paramedics! SHUT UP!] THEY DON'T NEED TO KNOW THAT SHIT!! DENKI!! SWEAR TO GOD IF YOU DON'T-!!
[The medics are laughing at the scene, enjoying that Kaminari's healthy enough to rile Bakugou up again.]
no subject
Moving forward is all they can do if they don't want to just lay down and give up. Denki isn't going to do that either, but it still feels like he's facing some open, terrifying chasm and the safety harness he has is made of friends and family. How heavy he's going to be depends on how bad things get in his head after this, and while he knows he can never be so heavy that the harness snaps, it's still going to be a lot of strain.
He doesn't like that. He's the one who makes other people feel better.
Guilt is a weird spiral, put a pillow to the face would be a good stopper. So is the laughter of the medics and the flustered anger from his boyfriend. The things that makes Denki happy. ]
Okay, okay! Don't blow the ambulance up, babe.
[ He says with a smile and a little wink, the most alive he's looked since they picked him up. The electric blonde still hasn't let go of that hand, though. It might as well be glued in his own, no matter how much he's fiddling with the cable.
It will probably end up in is mouth sooner or later. The cable, not the hand. ]
no subject
He can make his friends feel better by letting them help him feel better. One of those sappy circular reasoning.
Glad to know his damn embarrassment gets those endorphins flooding! Katsuki's still snarling at him, but unable to get a pillow to shove over his stupid smiling face. Keep that damn sappy shit to the bedroom where no one can hear it but him!]
Don't keep pissing me off then!
[One eye twitching and the corner of his mouth curling up in that psycho pissed-off grin that promises some hell later on. Because he is glad to see his boyfriend's mood improving, despite how he's going about it. And he's not crushing his hand, so that's a good thing. The medics are keeping mind on Chargebolt's vitals during the moment, not worried about Dynamight's aggressive flustered nature.]
Once the old bag checks you out, you'll probably be overnight in the hospital and then cleared tomorrow to go home.
no subject
He'll get there eventually. Hopefully.
Right now he's all smiles and laughter, even if at Katsuki's expense, and he knows that crazy look. He deserves it, and it's somehow intimidating and endearing at the same time. The noble beast. ]
Ugghh I don't want to stay overnightttt...
[ Denki whines again, but he knows they have to make sure he's okay. Maybe get a CT scan or something, and make sure he's not bugged or has anything weird put inside. Who knows, he was out for a whole damn day.
Leaning back against the stretcher, the cable finally goes in his mouth like a toddler (or a guy with an oral fixation). He'll keep chatting and making jokes all the way to the hospital. ]
no subject
Katsuki knows Denki'll pull through it. He did. He trusts his boyfriend's strength to do the same.
Even if he wants to stuff a pillow down his damn throat right now. God, he really has to pick this time to go all out on the boyfriend teasing! Katsuki glares at him and rubs the side of his head in annoyance. And to avoid braining him.]
You'll fucking stay wherever the doctors say and however long you need to.
[Even with Recovery Girl on station, there's going to be some period of rest and check ups to attend to. Head injuries aren't to be taken lightly. Lasting damage could occur and Denki already has enough going on with his head. Plus the potential of villains doing something weird to him before releasing him...
Katsuki notices the cable going in Denki's mouth and he frowns inside his head. Shit... That's kind of a thing now. But the trip to the hospital is thankfully uneventful and Katsuki stays beside Denki's stretcher while his parents meet him on the other.
Yeah, very worried and very relieved.]
no subject
He gets a ct scan (and a headache from the thumping sound from the machine), then his stitches are replaced, head is wrapped up professionally and he gets poked and prodded until he's ready to short out just to stop noticing all the fussing.
Finally, finally he's sent to a room for his overnight stay, as Katsuki is right about the doctors wanting to keep an eye on him. Recovery Girl was going to arrive in a little while, which leaves a blessed moment of just Katsuki and their families. Denki doesn't quite care, though, just looking at his boyfriend with a tired smile. The beep of his pulse check is annoying as hell, but he can tune it out for now.
Better beeping than a flatline, after all. ]
That was terrible. I'm never getting kidnapped or hit over the head again.
[ His mom shakes her head at that, exasperated by her son. She and his dad goes to make a few phone calls, and that's fine. He's not a little kid any more. ]
no subject
Katsuki remains by his boyfriend's bedside, of course letting his parents stay, despite the selfish part of him wanting to just have Denki's undivided attention. Alone. But that's not going to happen or a while. Not until they're back in their apartment and they're able to rest together. He stays in his chair next to the bed, leaning back against the seat and flipping through a motorcycle magazine for the time being. Having been in the hospital a few times before, he's able to tune the beeping out.]
Gonna have to put more work in your spatial awareness and reaction speed then. [Since headshots are always going to be in an enemy's attempt arsenal. Katsuki closes the magazine once Denki's parents leave and as soon as they're gone, promptly leans over and kisses his boyfriend full on the mouth.]
no subject
...it's exactly what he gets, and the electric blonde grins. He knows his boyfriend. ]
I plan on it.
[ Then they're kissing. It draws a full-body quiver from Denki; not exactly arousal but something above that. He sinks into it, cupping Katsuki's cheek and smiling a little. Yeah, he needed that like air.
His lover might have been trying to keep it PG for the wholeass 1-A when Denki kissed him back then, but they're alone now and if the poor wounded guy in the sickbed wants to add tongue, nobody can judge him! ]

Made even worse when he feels that head-to-toe shudder running down his boyfriend's body. God, he's been so fucking worried about him, not knowing why he was taken or where he'd gone. Just that he needed to find him, get him back, and no answers were coming anywhere. Frustrations mounted, his mood exploded, and... shit, he needs this right now. His touch, his presence, tangible reminders that Denki's right here. Found and home.
Tongue is totally allowed. Though he's gonna try not to go further than that... even though his mind's sliding "blowjob's below the belt" across his brain's "counter" like it was drugs.]

It's unfortunately very obvious they can't do anything fun right now, not only since Recovery Girl was on her way but the electric blonde's heart rate is going up and beeping quicker on the machine. He's definitely excited, and Denki longs for his boyfriend's touch. He can't be stressed or scared if he's brought to heaven and back by that mouth - same idea on the 'dick is far away from his head' part. ]
Hospital's gonna think I'm having a heart attack. Listen how happy and excited you make me, babe. [ He says, a little more softly as his honey eyes meet those red. ] No kidnapping or weird bullshit like this makes my heart go fast in a good way. Just you... and maybe cardio, but we're not counting that.
[ It's good but in an evil way, and to be fair Katsuki's usually the one pushing him so it still counts. ]
When we get home and my head is on straight we're doing some very not straight things.
[ There's another kiss, promising and teasing. Very Denki. ]

He has to hold himself back; the hospital would be very frowning if Katsuki started getting into bed with someone with a head injury. And yeah, those damn heart and brain monitors made the potential of anything more kinky under the sheets extremely obvious. He'll continue to debate on the thought of Denki's dick being further down, but knowing his electric man, that would get his heart racing and the incriminating sounds would be going off anyways.]
They can deal with it for a fucking bit. [Growled against those wonderful lips. Red eyes burn down at the golden gaze below him, obviously wanting to do so much more and quivering slightly in frustration at having to curb his urges.] Damn, looks like the brain damage is severe, saying such fucking sappy and stupid things to me.
[Denki knows well enough by now that his sappy and stupid things are treasured, not tolerated as they used to, and Katsuki only gripes about them for appearances and the lingering "jerk" that he'll never fully grow out of. It warms his heart and relieves him of a lot of his stress to hear those kind of words from his boyfriend.]
Fuck, don't talk like that. [Muttered into the kiss.] It's fucking hard to hold back right now as it is.
[Stupid, sexy Denki.]
