how they help you de-stress !
✸ ft. bakugo, deku, todoroki, kirishima, denki, & sero
✸ BAKUGO cooks your favorite comfort meal for you. he knows that he can come off as abrasive sometimes and the last thing he wants to do is stress you out any further, so he’ll speak through food instead of words. if he notices that you haven’t been yourself or you seem swamped, he’s immediately off to the kitchen. you never have to request his cooking, he’s already on it. when the meal is prepared, he coaxes you away from your work area to take a well-deserved break
✸ DEKU offers to give you a massage. he thinks it’s the perfect way for you to relax your body and mind. you don’t have to worry about anything, just lay down while he pampers you. he’ll massage your neck, back, shoulder, even your scalp— anywhere that’s tense and needs some extra care. he’s always thorough, working at all the knots and checking in to make sure he isn’t causing you any pain. once he’s finished, he’ll suggest making you a cup of tea so you can continue to wind down
✸ TODOROKI is sure to ask you if you need anything from him. he never wants to assume there’s something wrong or impose on your space without asking, so he thinks it’s safe to ask you if there’s anything he can do for you. he’s willing to listen to you vent, go with you on a calming walk— you name it, he’ll drop everything to help you relax when you’re feeling overwhelmed. if you say no, he’ll happily give you space but let you know that he’s there if you change your mind
✸ KIRISHIMA reminds you that it’s okay to take breaks. he thinks working hard is great and is beyond proud of you for doing all the work you do, but he would hate to see you burned out from pushing yourself past your limits. so he reassures you that it’s acceptable to take breaks and set aside time for yourself. if he isn’t around to tell you that it’s time for a break in person, he’ll text you a reminder to make sure that you aren’t overworking yourself. he always points out that you deserve time doing things you enjoy
✸ DENKI puts on a funny show or movie for you both to watch. he thinks that comedy is a helpful way to get your mind off the things that are burdening you. words often fail him so he turns to actions. he’ll gather your favorite snacks and a bunch of blankets so you’re comfortable during your watching session. his approach is to keep you distracted, but it’s just as effective as other methods. he hopes that the lighthearted atmosphere is enough to ease your stress and make you smile
✸ SERO does your chores/errands for you. you already work so hard, you shouldn’t have to fret over menial labor like making it to the store or taking out the trash as well. while you’re busy doing your important work, he’ll take care of the little stuff. he knows that it feels nice not having to worry about a whole other set of tasks to complete once you finally finish one, so if there’s anything he can do to take some of the weight off your shoulders, he’ll gladly take it on to help you out
