[Prologue || Closed || Hiro] The *Pantry* Raid
shinyxwords:
Thankfully for the bunny-themed girl (and Hiro himself); there would be no need to toss the weaker of the two across the room. In the process of dragging her to the sink and peeling off the coffee-stained glove, the purple kid was doing more concerned nagging than anything else. In fact, he had practically thrown himself into a tizzy.
“Really, you shouldn’t be so careless when using stuff like that…! Thankfully they’re only coffee burns, but… Oh, I do hope this water isn’t too cold!” In between every step, Hiro would pause to turn on the faucet or roll her jacket sleeve away from the running water.
At least the touch on the head finally ceased his prattling. With a jolt, Hiro immediately pulled away from the surprise touch and spun his body to face the agent; his hands still gently running the cold water over the new burns.
That, and the use of his name, had left his mouth agape as he stared up at the older girl.
“Wait- You… You know how I am?” Well, that felt like a silly question.
Clearly, she knew him from somewhere, or else she wouldn’t have called him by name.
Why had that made him jump though? Maybe, it was because nobody had used ‘-chan’ for him in quite some time?
It took his brain a second to process all this new information before shock faded into a calmer curiosity.
“Oh. Actually… I think I can already guess where you might know me from? I’m sorry. You just surprised me since I don’t believe we have met before!” If he had to take a guess as to where she may have seen him, he felt it must have been from TV.
That’s where most people remembered him from, after all. When he thought about it, he really should have been more surprised that the other people here didn’t recognize him. Not that he minded, of course. It was a trivial matter.
“But, I am happy to hear that you aren’t too hurt. Just please be careful next time! Alright?”
When his stomach grumbled yet again, the speaker’s expression changed into that of slight embarrassment. The cold tap on his nose and being referred to as ‘cute’ only made him flush further. Here had started out wanting to help, but now he had this sweet girl fussing over him. What a turn of events.
“Right, breakfast! That’s important! Uuhm…” Ignoring the pinking in cheeks altogether, Hiro tapped his chin in thought.
“I’m… not really sure? If you know of something you want, I’ll probably end-up making myself some as well. I haven’t spent much time in here yet and I’m not really picky!.”
The girl giggles at Hiro’s momentary panic and confusion. How was it that out of hundreds of Hopes Peak Academy students, those she were with just happened to be the cutest and/or hottest?
“Luna will be very careful, so don’t worry!” She winks, giving a thumbs up. “And! As for breakfast ...”
With an index finger the girl taps her cheek, pondering what their next meal would be as her eyes took inventory of the kitchen. Vegetables were in boxes like some minimart, and from what she remembers, there was a freezer for meat. However, it’s the room separating the kitchen and the freezer that sticks out in her mind.
She takes the smaller boy by the hand and makes a beeline for it, Luna gave up regular eating habits a long time ago.
“There’s ice-cream in the pantry, right?”
