oh! you mean handkerchiefs!! they're okay! some of them are even pretty but why are you asking me? are you going to carry one around now, sir okuyasu? it WOULD be useful in a place like this
who is that....they sound cool and interesting....
[Ochako is... actually not downstairs? That is definitely not tradition, but it only takes a few seconds for her to pop out of her room and peep down at him from over the banister. Hi.]
Up here! But be careful when you come into my room, okay? You can't open the door too wide, and you have to close it really fast!
[Aaaaaand back into her room she goes. He can hurry upstairs to find her crouched down beside her bed, speaking softly to something obviously hiding under it. Hopefully he doesn't step on the various vegetables strewn about the floor? And hopefully he don't say anything about them, either? Just. Let her live, Okuyasu. Let her live.]
It's okay! I promise he won't hurt you. Okuyasu is one of the nicest people I know...
[Okuyasu just leaves because she broke tradition so bad. No, of course not, he heads upstairs, giving her a look that is only somewhat skeptical before she zooms off to her room again. But he's a very nice person, obviously, so he does as he's told and slips into the room as hurriedly and with as little door-opening as a big dude can.
There are veggies... everywhere. He nearly steps on one. This is getting wilder.
But she's crouching so he will just pop a squat right there with her, because of course he does.]
[Uh, duh? But gentle coaxing is obviously not working here, so he's just going to have to give her a second to drop to her belly and scoot halfway underneath the bed. There's some muttering, the sound of Ochako hitting her elbow against the bed-frame and yelping, but soon enough she's wriggling back into the open while clutching... a normal-looking white rabbit.]
Isn't he cute? Or maybe he's a she. I'm not really sure. [Slowly, carefully, she sits back up, plopping the rabbit right down into her lap.] We brought it back from our world!
[A BUNNY... Okuyasu has probably never been this close to a bunny before, which is a weird thing to think about, so this rabbit now has all of his attention. Oh shit!! It's cute!!
He leans down to be eye level with it and stare. This is how you befriend animals.]
[The bunny lifts its head, nose twitching as it regards the giant human blinking back at it. A normal bunny would be terrified, but this one? Nah. It's used to Kouda-sized people.]
Go for it! I don't think he'll mind. [Back to he, huh? Deal with it!] Plus it looks like he already likes you.
[Okuyasu: Bunny Whisperer. As if she needed another reason to think he's cute...]
He didn't come from a store. I found him in our dorm!
[Which... probably needs some explaining, she's sure, but she pauses to nudge her furry friend out of her lap and onto the floor. He is perfectly content to sit right between them and soak up all of this attention. Two soft boys!! Be still, Ochako's heart.]
One of our friends keeps him in his room, so when Deku found a way back to our dorm I wanted to make sure that he was okay? And he seemed okay, but he also looked kind of... lonely. [She shrugs, because just look at him! Such a ham.] It just didn't feel right to leave him all by himself.
[Breaking and entering? Check. Theft? Check. But it was all for a good cause!!]
[She STOLE this rabbit!! Grand theft pet of this pure and innocent animal... It's fine, because now Okuyasu gets to pet a bunny whenever he wants.]
Like Stray Cat, I guess. [Accidentally abandoned pet, except this one is actually real. Okuyasu casually just lies down on his side to continue petting this bunny. Shh.]
So that's why you're throwing vegetables everywhere, huh. Don't they just eat carrots?
[Ochako hugs her legs to her chest, rests her chin on her knees, and tries to hide her amusement as she watches him stretch out beside this adorable little bunny. So tough.]
They like carrots, but the only carrots I could find were grey. That's why I brought him a little bit of everything! It was an experiment, [she says pointedly, like this explains the fucking mess.] He'll eat anything with color, but I think strawberries are his favorite.
[Oh, so he's got jokes, huh? Hardy har har. She sticks her tongue out at him, because they're both incredibly mature teenagers with incredibly mature senses of humor.
And good God, that name...]
Busta? [And she repeats it under her breath once more, trying to place it, but... nope! She's got nothin', unless—] Is that something else from your world? Like Eminem?
Yeah! Man, we shoulda looked for a CD player when my house was kicking around. [He could have shown her COOL RAP on his 1999 CD player, which wouldn't have sucked at all.]
[Obviously he needs to ask Minato if he has any 90s songs on his mp3 player! But does she like this name? Does she really, really want her precious bunny to be named BUSTA RABBIT? ...Of course she does. Okuyasu thought of it.]
I do! It's... different. [But, like, in a good way.] What do you think about it?
[She reaches out to poke one of Busta's ears, just to see what his reaction will be, and he promptly... stretches the heck out, which is a thing they apparently do when they're super comfortable. Look at that cute bun?? I'm learning so many bunny facts tonight.]
[Holy shit, this is it. This is the thing that kills Okuyasu. A super cute rabbit. Why is he so weak to this cute animal?? Why isn't Stray Cat this cute? Life is unfair.]
Man, I totally relate, little dude.
[Pats its bunny back... thanks for joining him here in the sprawled out on the floor club.]
I think Busta's a sick as hell name.
when is oku going to take a nap with busta sleeping on his chest
[Hey, now!! Stray Cat is plenty cute, just in a... weird kind of way? But there's really no denying that Busta is the cutest Chroma critter, thank you very much, and Ochako wishes she had a camera to capture this perfect moment. She's dying over here.]
I knew Busta liked you! Maybe he even likes you more than he likes me.
[Honestly, he probably does? Okuyasu can't talk to him, it's true, but he's Large and that's enough.]
[Busta is perfectly happy to chill on the floor while Okuyasu messes with his poor, defenseless ear. He's eaten waaaaaay more strawberries than a bun probably should, so he's a very sleepy boy.]
I don't think Stray Cat likes me that much. I just play with him a lot.
[She definitely brought back a cat toy from Aizawa's cat café just for Stray Cat. One of those feather wands? But you know, that reminds her...]
Oh yeah! Can I see the [pffft] fancy tissue you brought?
[She brought Stray Cat a toy... this is more affection than Okuyasu gives the cat plant, but at least he collects plenty of bugs. Gross. Maybe he can train Eminem the frog to catch bugs and not immediately eat them. Feed its pet brother...]
Oh-- yeah, almost forgot. [He tugs the fancy tissue(tm) out of his pocket and hands it over. It is clean, after it got an apple exploded all over it, but it does kind of smell like apples still, so there's that.]
this is not a shitpost, this is serious, don't @ me
like the kind fancy rich people have???
you? post something serious? sounds fake
i've never thought about what tissues rich people use
the expensive, super soft ones? with lotion?
i guess they're nice? (・・。)ゞ
this is slander
probably still super expensive though
laura, queen of shitposts... shitposter extraordinaire...
they're okay! some of them are even pretty
but why are you asking me? are you going to carry one around now, sir okuyasu?
it WOULD be useful in a place like this
who is that....they sound cool and interesting....
u though if u want this one i happen to have
zelda said girls are into fancy tissues? and ur my girl so it's all urs
[He is the smoothest.......ever.]
you're not missing out on much tbh
she's right! girls are definitely into fancy tissues!!!
do you want to bring it over right now? i'm not busy
you can even meet my new friend!
what the FUCK
but yeah sure i'll be there in 10
[And he will walk right in, as is tradition.]
oh, i forgot a witty response... i played myself

It's okay! I promise he won't hurt you. Okuyasu is one of the nicest people I know...
i've won this battle

You should help me name him.
no subject
You sure this is your friend's pet and not just you as a bunny? [ha.... he's so funny, smirking at here from down here on the floor.
Anyway, a name. Good thing he has one in mind already, get ready for it:] Busta Rabbit.

And good God, that name...]

Are you always this good with animals?
hmmm, every day of his life
Nah, me and the little dude are just super tight already. Eminem just sits in his bowl, and Stray Cat's... y'know.
[A fucking plant. He fiddles with one Busta Ear, very carefully. Bunny...!!]
Stray Cat likes you more than me, so that's gotta be it.
ochako will ask dave to take a paparazzi shot
I don't think Stray Cat likes me that much. I just play with him a lot.
[She definitely brought back a cat toy from Aizawa's cat café just for Stray Cat. One of those feather wands? But you know, that reminds her...]

[No, she's not being greedy! She has a reason!]
the only polaroid that matters
Oh-- yeah, almost forgot. [He tugs the fancy tissue(tm) out of his pocket and hands it over. It is clean, after it got an apple exploded all over it, but it does kind of smell like apples still, so there's that.]
All yours.
