Saitama, totally unprompted, leans over to Genos, and tugs him closer... into a soft kiss! Wow, someone's sure feeling affectionate tonight. Right after, though, he just cozies up to Genos and leans his head directly on his chest plate, a small goofy smile on his lips. "Thanks for watching this anime with me. Isn't it great?"

Genos was far from being some cold, unfeeling machine but sometimes he kind of wished he was one if only to save himself some of the embarrassment he felt in these moments. He couldn’t blush like a normal person, he didn’t have any capability to do that when there was no blood or veins running through his body, but the mere fact he was built with such intuitive technology that would pick up on exactly what he was thinking even subconsciously meant he still had a blushing equivalent in attached to his most base human instincts.

What looked like now as he was left a little flustered at Saitama’s kiss ( as he often was any time they kissed ) was his body heating up a little and his cooling system activating to counteract it as his brain registered the memory of what it felt like to have cheeks burning with a blush. A whole ridiculous display of some light and sound that Genos tried his best to ignore and play off as nothing even though there wasn’t any way in the world Saitama didn’t notice it every time it happened, especially not when he was still so close and laying right on his chest where most of his vital components were.

❝ I was never one to watch things like this even as a child but yes, it was interesting. This entire experience is... nice. ❞ Saitama close, no monsters in the immediate vicinity, no hero association calls demanding he be somewhere to stop some disaster or another. Just them in their small shared space relaxing, something Genos didn’t indulge in often.

❝ But if you were to replace the main character of this anime then I guarantee the situations he struggled to face would have never been an issue. You could accomplish any goal you set your mind to, Saitama. ❞

anonymous : Genos, do you think the intensity of one of Saitama's slaps would be enough to cook a chicken?

❝ Saitama-sensei possesses IMMENSE STRENGTH beyond any level of true comprehension so it is with COMPLETE CERTAINTY that I can state a slap from Sensei would absolutely OBLITERATE a chicken or any other creature which was on the receiving end of it, rendering it little more than paste. ❞ Genos answered, but of course HE WASN’T DONE. Often whenever asked for an explanation, he had much information to give.

❝ I have seen this in action before, not to cook a chicken but when Sensei was attempting to SWAT A FLY. Not only had the fly disintegrated into NOTHING, but the impact of even such a small and INSIGNIFICANT creature had punctured a hole through the wall of our apartment. It is no longer there as I had taken it upon myself to patch said hole as I often do when anything puts the integrity of our home at risk but IT WAS AN INCREDIBLE SIGHT. I have even made detailed notes of the situation complete with equations built upon my hypothesis of how hard Sensei’s slap was and at what velocity the fly was sent through the air as if it were A METAL PROJECTILE and not A DISGUSTING BUG.

❝ If the end objective was to cook a chicken that is a job I am much better suited for as I believe my incineration canons on a low setting could be INCREDIBLY EFFECTIVE in providing an edible meal. I cannot, however, guarantee GOOD FLAVOR as there would be no seasonings or marinades involved. ❞

KISSES!!

@traiinedhard​ : ❣ 3. a cheek kiss

There were many urges Genos would say he’d never had before, not only because he was now A CYBORG but there were things that had just never really interested him in his life like relationships or the intimacy and affection that came with them. A level of pragmatism some could see as cold was nothing that he’d adopted after his incident, IT HAD ALWAYS BEEN A PART OF HIM... and yet all of that had changed with Saitama.

Suddenly his life came to revolve around ONE MAN. He wanted to be seen by him, acknowledged by him, stand at his side through everything. And, most peculiarly, Genos wanted to KISS HIM and every time the thought crossed his mind he counted himself lucky his cyborg form couldn’t blush- at least not technically. Perhaps his internal mechanisms would whirr a little faster and his cooling system had to be put to work to combat the extra heat given off by the kinetic energy, but it was NOT like a heart racing or a warm flush on skin.

NOTHING LIKE THAT AT ALL.

Still, no matter how many times he tried to push it out of his mind the thought persisted until the point where he had to try. Feelings were already exchanged, things were DIFFERENT between them- not by much but by some. A kiss could be allowed, but he wasn’t going to be the one to push too far just yet so he’d make start simple. Saitama was currently distracted as he often was in the apartment. Genos knew so well that nobody in the hero association worked as hard as Saitama so his treasured time to do nothing was WELL DESERVED and it seemed like the perfect moment.

So after taking a deep, steady breath he’d take his spot kneeling next to the bald hero. If Saitama didn’t end up liking it he was sure it would come up and he would NEVER do it again but he summoned up all of the courage he’d display fighting off a monster and made his move. 

First he’d assess the situation, determining the most accurate trajectory. Golden eyes analyzed thoroughly until he’d found his mark- TARGET ACQUIRED- and only then would eyes slip shut before he leaned in to press his lips against Saitama’s cheek.

SUCCESS.

❝ SAITAMA-SENSEI! ❞ An excited cyborg is happy to see his boyfriend, immediately rushing to hug him the second the bald man enters the apartment. He’s in one of those moods.

@evoheal​ : "WAOW ... are your weapons biometal too?! I saw you made weapons with your arms. Hey, I can do that too, actually!" He says, grinning like a mad man and showing off some of his builds to the cyborg. Nevermind if he's annoying the piss out of him, this dude seems pretty similar to him!! He wants to know everything about him. ( for Genos ! )

❝ Biometal? ❞ Ordinarily he wouldn’t still be standing here to listen to whatever some random person wanted to say to him but that had him CURIOUS, willing to see what the other had to offer. There was, after all, clearly something different about this guy just based on his height alone even if his personality said he seemed to be on the younger side- possibly younger than himself.

❝ I see. Well my weapons are not biometal, I am a COMBAT CYBORG. My weaponry does have some transformative capability so I am not CONSTANTLY displaying weapons and can use my arms more normally but it is simply compact technology which makes up a majority of my body, nothing like biometal. ❞ Genos explained, looking down at his own arm where his palm began to power up his incineration canon briefly before disengaging. 

❝ Are you some kind of cyborg as well? ❞

SEND 💞 IF YOUR MUSE THINKS MINE IS CUTE

@traiinedhard​ : 💞 from saitama to genos, but also saiki to kaidou honestly

❝ Sensei. Speaking from AN OBJECTIVE STANDPOINT I do not fit any of the criteria for the word cute. It is typically not associated with things like hard metal and destructive weaponry which is what makes up my entire body. I AM NOT CUTE. ❞ But even so as he said it he was clearly a little flustered, voice not holding quite the same firmness it often would.

No, of course he’s not about to CRY, and he’d deny that to his grave even as he was red-faced and tears were welling up in his eyes. Part of him wanted to argue he wasn’t CUTE because The Jet Black Wings wasn’t cute, but... ❝ I just- I- You-, S-SAIKI ARE YOU SURE?! This isn’t some trick by Dark Reunion? ❞

@tornadoblizzard​ : "Ah, Genos." Fubuki's smile is thin-lipped and sly, and she has that LOOK in her eye like she's up to something. "I wanted to apologize for the last time we saw each other. We were just trying to remind you of your place in the Blizzard group, we didn't mean to scare you. What do you say about coming back and letting us start over?" ( i know we rewrote the whole amnesia incident but i thought the reaction to this would be amusing, so consider it non canon? -- tornadoblizzard )

His place in the Blizzard group? He still wasn’t sure what that was other than some kind of GANG that cornered people in dark buildings. He still remembered so vividly every feeling in his body telling him this woman’s presence was A THREAT at that time so even now he refused to let her in through the door, only cracking it open just enough to see who it was while Saitama was currently out.

❝ Until I can remember whether or not I was actually a part of your group like you claim, I do not want to get myself mixed up in whatever it is you do. Please leave this place. That plain-looking man that claims I am his disciple should be home soon and you showing up to his home uninvited is RUDE. ❞ Genos went on to explain, the crack in the door revealing his face closing little by little as he spoke before finally shutting.

❝ I think you should leave, lady. ❞ Genos finished through the shut door as the sound of the lock being put into place was also heard.

@traiinedhard​ : "You are the most beautiful grill in the world."

❝ Grill... ❞ Was sensei confused? That was the first thought running through Genos’ mind. The second was that he supposed MAYBE he had similarities to a grill? They were metal and hot and he was made of a lot of metal and had a lot of fire power. Plus, his chest plate might sort of look like a grill.

But he wasn’t a grill or a girl if that was what was meant to go there.

❝ Sensei... as unlikely as it seems, is it possible you have suffered from some kind of HEAD INJURY? ❞
