That's fortunate. That means you'll have the day free. Can you give me a list of people that you'd like to come? As many as you'd like, I just need to know how to prepare. We can host it here. That'll make it easier than having Bakugo bring food somewhere else.
Would you take a compromise? Your birthday is one of the best days for people like Bakugo and I because it's when you were born. Maybe we can find a movie to watch? It doesn't have to be a birthday celebration. You can still bring more friends if you would like to.
Maybe our situations are different, I can't know, but I used to hate my birthday too. Now I enjoy it because others do in spite of the reasons I hated it. That doesn't mean everyone feels the way I do.
It could be that, sitting around and watching a movie. We can do that any day if you'd like, it doesn't have to be birthday related.
[If he asked? Shoto would answer. Unhesitating and willing to tell him what he did asked. For now? Shoto doesn't pry, or offer otherwise. It feels like it won't be helpful, but maybe one day it will be.
Come the day that if Sakura does want to? He will listen, too.]
I'm not too familiar with them either, we could look together. That would be enjoyable too, just learning what we might want to see the next time. Sometimes just going to see what happens is fun too.
The one reason I told you, and the other is because I don't think you're a quitter.
I'm sure something bad happened to you judging by how you told me to drop it. That's not the only day something bad happened. Are you going to give up on every one of those days? Mark them on calendars and not allow yourself to enjoy them? That doesn't sound like you to me.
I understand. I'm not saying this without experience of my own.
If it got made into something different once, you can do it again. You have to make the effort to move past whatever it was. That doesn't mean it disappears, but it doesn't have to defeat you every year.
[ defeated. he never thought of it that way. but maybe he was. from the moment his father said those words, sakura was defeated. there's no place for me. and he walked that tightrope ever since. constantly juggling his own feelings, his own self against others. no comfort, no light. ]
should i?
is that the right thing to do?
No worries about spoilers, I'm in it for the long haul. Spoil away. Kyotaro & Ren own my life.
[An easy answer to give, but not an easy road to walk.]
Yes. You should. For yourself, and for the people you care for. Like I said, they want to celebrate the day their friend came into their world. Even for people like us who think the opposite. Make something new. It doesn't have to be with Bakugo and I, with anyone.
Take your time, we've still got some time before your birthday. If you want friends over, we'll host your birthday for you. We have more than enough space for a lot of people and you know Bakugo likes cooking.
[Did he ask Bakugo? No. Is Bakugo going to say no? Absofuckinglutely not. Sakura is adopted if he likes it or not.]
Let either of us know. Even if you just want to use the space to get together with a few people. It'd be nice to have the house be full again. There used to be about seven people living here. The rooms are big enough for four as it is.
[ sakura can't really imagine it. he's always lived alone. a small apartment, a small shed, wherever people could toss him out. the idea of houses and people is still a lot to take in. ]
Not at all. It can fit a lot more than that, and used to sometimes. I slept on the couch until we started remodeling, and then Bakugo added more rooms for whatever was on his mind, including bedrooms. It used to be his house. Then he left, everyone left, and it was just me. Now he's here again and it's just us two.
Even if you didn't want us in your space for whatever you were doing, we would have enough room to move somewhere else for that night.
It doesn't make you a jerk to take my offer. I like spending time with Bakugo and the house is large.
You didn't? If you ever want to, even for a while, you can stay.
[DID HE ASK BAKUGO? NO. Will Bakugo a) deny Shoto anything he asks for, and b) say no? He will not say no and no he will not deny anything Shoto asks for.]

[ if he knew the truth, shouto would surely change his mind. who wouldn't?
sakura knows what he did. ]
just drop it.

sakura almost wants to ask but . . . is that fair? considering he can't even share his own answer? he's not ready to pass that story on. ]
i don't know any movies.
anyway. i don't think there's anything to enjoy.

dfgf thank you <3
i'm just not sure yet. but. since you asked, i'll make sure i have an answer.
No, no. Thank *you*. I appreciate you being considerate of it sincerely ♥.

;; <3 you're so sweet
but i'll give you a real answer. promise.
♥!! You too tho. & Sorry had to go look up the ancient knowledge of Bakugo and Shoto's house lol

though. a lot has changed. is it really so hard to believe now? ]
even so. it'd be a jerk move and i wouldn't do that.
and it's okay. i'm used to having my own place.
