    Summary

    "If you die I'm not going to be responsible for this, you look old enough to make your own shitty decisions," he decisively says and Hitoshi winces in mock-outrage.

    "Ouch. You don't think my eyebags are sexy?"

    "Can't say I do. Are you going to fucking pay or will it be anything else?"

    Wow, rude is an understatement, Hitoshi thinks but he finally does get out his wallet, eying the display. The barista put in fifteen shots of espresso which—is a lot more than Hitoshi usually gets and maybe, just maybe he'll have to come back here.

    For the coffee of course, not for the exceedingly rude service.

    That decision solidifies when he takes his first sip and even though that's a lot of caffeine it's also strangely the best thing he's ever tasted in his life and yep.

    Hitoshi will have to be a regular here.

    Summary

    Hitoshi's usual coffee shop is shutting down. The Rikidos are retiring, but they have a recommendation. A quiet coffee shop a couple of blocks over. Mr. Rikido doesn't recommend the coffee so much as he does the barista.

    The barista, it turns out, does not take orders. Especially not from guys who break their floral arrangements in the busy season.

    Summary

    Shinsou starts to work in HR at his father’s news office. Bakugou racks up some truly respectable violations. It’s kind of their love language. Well. It could be if either of them actually knew how to communicate.

    -

    “Caffeine addict?” Katsuki raised an eyebrow and the man shrugged, still smiling.

    “What gave it away, the excessive espresso shots?”

    “The eyebags.” Katsuki shot back, though he didn’t mention how they strangely suited him, “You look fucking exhausted.”

    Summary

    "I think we can agree that I'm a bit of an idiot, right?" Hitoshi puts out there, because Katsuki is fond of calling him that sometimes and it's true, Hitoshi knows it is.

    So it doesn't make sense to him when Katsuki frowns.

    "Depends on the situation. You're not an idiot when it comes to work. You're not even an idiot when it comes to your friends and family. You're only an idiot when it's about yourself," he says with suspicion. "Are you being an idiot about yourself?"

    "Ehm—yes," Hitoshi admits and Katsuki's gaze blazes with anger.

    Summary

    Hitoshi watches Bakugo put someone in their place, his voice cutting and angry, his eyes sparking almost just as much as his hands, and he doesn't like the warmth that starts in his chest and then pools low in his stomach.

    That is not good at all, Hitoshi thinks, and he's proven right when Bakugo whirls around to him and narrows his eyes.

    "The fuck are you still doing here, eyebags? You want to get yelled at, too?" he almost growls out and for one, horrible, embarrassing moment he wants to blurt out "Yes" before he clams down on the urge.
