Ordinary - (Dabi x OC)

Sike, There Are No Rules

Dabi POV:

It's funny. She really hasn't changed much, you know. Same old Grape, being the same old goody-two shoes she's always been. What a shocker.

Guess she's a bit spunkier though. Heh, where was that attitude ten years ago, when I was a total dick? Then again, that means I haven't really changed much either in that respect, huh? Good, I'm glad. I like making her life harder. Maybe she'll even get so frustrated with me, she'll drop out of this whole thing and go home. That would sure make my life a hell of a lot easier.

After all, that's what she would have done ten years ago-give up and run from heavy demands that anyone placed on her. Shouldn't be too difficult to make history repeat itself. If anything, it should be fun.

Ack, but the main question still lingers.

Grape's a hero now, and that sure surprised the hell outta me. Unpredictable, maybe. I can't go into this whole thing blind sided like a dumb fuck. Things are different now, than they were ten years ago.

She's different. I know that, and I've gotta admit that if I wanna make sure I don't get caught off guard by her little plans.

"If you don't comply with these rules, I'll call the hero commission."

I mean, blackmail? Don't get me wrong, I still call bullshit on that. I'll bet all my staples on that threat being all talk. But, even back then, the grape wasn't even talk. She was just pouty faces and silence...

....only to a point-

Regardless, she has me curious now-nah, curious isn't the right word. She has me suspicious. On edge and wondering. I gotta stay one step ahead of her if I wanna have the upper hand in this 'partnership.' After all, I don't know how long she'll be able to hold out with my intentional problematic attitude. She's already beaten my predictions of dropping out the first day.

Looks like I'll have to get to know her better. Heh, you're a fool if you think I'm talking about actually getting to know her better. Nah, no way. I don't got the interest or time for that.

After all, why socialize nicely when I can just snoop around like an asshole?

I didn't even realize that my eyes had already been awake and opened until they blinked a few times. Kind of annoying that I'm already awake, you'd think spending the night in this overpriced bed, with these overpriced pillows would have me sleeping like a baby. Guess again.

Eh, still. Can't deny that it sure as hell beats sleeping on dirty, cold floors with that stupid magician waking me up every five minutes to see his new magic tricks with his little blue balls.

Rubbing the sleep out of my eyes and not bothering to appreciate the warm bed any more, I began rustling around on the mattress, realizing I'd been laying on my side with my back to Violet's side of the room.

Dumb fuck. What did I just say about not underestimating the little bitch? She really could have stabbed me or something, huh?

Ha, you know what? Nah. Even now, I still don't think she's got that in her.

Anyways, I was quick to roll over onto my back now, letting an inaudible sigh of consciousness escape my mouth before I lazily rolled my head towards Violet's side of the room.

The grape sleeps like a fucking log. Bet she's drooling all over her pillow-

"Have a nice sleep?" She hissed out angrily, the sound of her awake voice admittedly causing me to jump a bit.

Alright, how many times do I gotta say stop underestimating the bitch?

Who cares. Play it cool and have the upper hand. You're broody and edgy, remember?
