Chapter 34 - Chicken Curry

Jinni stepped out of the portal, a smile on her face. "Thanks Kurogiri. The meet up went better than I hoped."

Kurogiri stood to greet Jinni, giving the student a smile in return "I'm glad, welcome back Miss Katima." He bowed a little, offering "Are you hungry at all? I'll be making dinner for the league soon."

"Yeah. I can eat. I just need to check on something real quick. Can you let me know when it's ready?" Jinni said as she started walking towards her room.

Kurogiri nodded "Of course! Please come to me if you find anything not to your liking." He called out after her, pacing over to the kitchen to start preparing dinner.

Jinni was busy accessing her files on her computer. She was busy setting up the recording system between the bug and her laptop. Going over to her bed, she pulled out a headset and a flash drive, plugging them both into the computer. She set up the recording for listening in the bar room.

Currently, only the sound of some quiet popping of boiling liquid from the kitchen could be heard as Kurogiri was preparing dinner. Some kind of stew or pasta, maybe?

Jinni sighed. Hopefully she'll get some more information other than the sound of cooking. In the meantime she bugged her room just in case. In the mean time she texted Eve while waiting for dinner.

Quiet footsteps could be heard pacing down the hall before Kurogiri knocked on the door and notified, not opening the door to be polite "Dinner is finished! I'm not sure how many of us are coming to eat, though."

"Shit, there's food? What is it?" A gruff voice, likely Dabi.

Kurogiri spoke to Dabi with a pleasant demeanor "I've made some mild chicken curry with rice for tonight. Does that sound okay to you?"

"Yeah, I guess. Got any extra spicy shit I can put on it??"

"Yes! I've got quite a few pepper seasonings. I'll go fetch it for you. You can serve yourself, the rice is in the rice cooker and the curry is on the stovetop, but remember to leave some for others!" Kurogiri padded out of the hallway to grab some of the needed spices from the kitchen.

Dabi waltzed over, and scooped himself a shit ton of chicken curry, more chicken curry than any normal person could possibly eat. There is still some left , but about half of it is gone. He proceeds to take a standard portion of rice.

Kurogiri returned with the spices, setting them down in front of Dabi. He seemed to sigh softly at the amount of curry taken "Well, I guess it's fortunate I made extra this time. Eating for both you and Tomura tonight?"

"Course I am, if that little fucker is going to go on an excursion without me, I'm at least gonna reap the benefits."

"Fair enough... I hope he's safe" Kurogiri seated himself at a barstool, looking off towards the television where All For One's voice would usually be projected.

"Safe? I think that that crusty ass left us, but I guess we'll find out when we take care of that Alice chick." Dabi said snarkily.

It was pretty clear Kurogiri didn't like the thought of Tomura leaving forever, hinting towards his feelings with a stubborn huff. Kurogiri put so much effort into raising him, could he really just disappear just like that...? "I suppose so..." Kurogiri mumbled, tapping his foot quietly against the footrest of the barstool.

Toga bursts through the door happily while humming "I got more info~" she sang out cheerfully.

Kurogiri looked up to see Toga, seeming to cheer up a little "Good evening Toga Himiko. Serve yourself some dinner and we can talk about it."
