Of Gods And Maidens

After Bakugou stormed out and Mitsuki told Uraraka not to mind him, she was starting to wonder if she'd ever understand him as a person. She thought, 'Maybe I can ask Deku?'

Her thoughts were interrupted when Mitsuki grabbed her hand. "All right dear, let me show you around the rest of the house. I'm sure my son told you he thinks is gaudy, but I really love this place. I hope you will too for as long as you're here." Mitsuki said.

"Thank you, I appreciate that. I do think what I've seen is beyond stunning. I mean the sky is right above you at all times here. It's like sleeping outdoors in a way. And don't get me started on how cool it is that the marble reflects that lights making it also look like a starry night. And I was wondering, is it magic that keeps the light from beaming in the rooms too much?" Uraraka raved.

"Yes well my husband and I had a lot of things in mind when we built this place. The night sky was something we both cherished and wanted to make it our home in a way. And yes it is a form of magic on the glass ceilings. Something we had forged into it, actually. As you know, magic is tricky."

"Did something happen to your husband? I don't mean to pry, but I haven't seen him. Obviously, you don't have to answer unless you want to."

"He's been missing for a long time now. I'm sure you've picked up on the fact that Katsuki has fae patrolling and is worried something might happen. His father went missing as something seemed to have infiltrated this realm for a small moment. We all hope he's still alive, but it's been so long. And we've lost others before. Sorry to bring the mood down."

"No don't apologize, I appreciate that you're willing to tell me. Bakugou won't tell me anything ever. I don't think he trusts me. I didn't mean to make you sad."

"Not at all. We hope for his safe return one day, but who knows. He'd be proud to show off this house, so I'm proud to do it as well."

Mitsuki lead Uraraka to all of the different rooms in the house, there was a library, one she couldn't believe the size of. If she'd stayed in this room for a full year reading non-stop, she'd barely read a quarter of the collection.

She finally got to see the kitchen. Pristine in the way it looked. Things were orderly and there were snacks and fruit in small sections, just in case.

Then Mitsuki led her back to her room. "I noticed I went overboard with the pillows, we can move the excess to another room. Not for the thing I'm most excited to show you." Mitsuki opened one of the dressers and it was stocked with all kinds of clothes. Anything she might possibly need was there. "I even stocked the closet with a dress or two. I don't know how long you'll be here and from time to time a god throws a ball." She shrugged. "If you don't like anything please let me know, we can replace it with something else. I wasn't sure what your taste in clothing was."

"Mitsuki, this is so much. I don't know how I can ever repay you."

"Don't worry about it Uraraka. Like I said, I've always wanted a daughter. Oh look at the time. I have to head out for a meeting and to get some work done. Please use the bath and try on the clothes. I'll see you later." She smiled at Uraraka.

"I will. It'll be nice to finally have a bath. Have a good day." Uraraka smiled back.

With that Mitsuki left the room and Uraraka closed the door. She headed into the bathroom and stripped off her dirty clothes. The bathtub wasn't too hard to figure out. She'd never used one so fancy and it was nice to have hot water. Magic was a nice thing.
