Today was the day. Izuku got out of bed with a pep in his step. He didn't waste time before bolting past his door and heading into the bathroom just down the hall. His mother was nowhere to be found again, something about more work landing upon her shoulders now that everything was fine on her end. A bit of a dick move, forcing more work upon a mother who had just gone through hell for the past months, but companies will be companies.

As for what job she's working on, she was intent on keeping quiet. It worried him a bit, but it was her decision to keep her mouth shut on her duties. She'll let him know if she needs to tell him. He trusted her that much.

Entering the bathroom, he wasn't surprised to see Toga bathing naked within the tub. This has been a daily occurrence for the past few days while she stayed in their apartment. Nothing happened, other than the regular blood sucking, to which Izuku replenished his every time she finished because of the First Flame, at least a fragment of it within.

Sinking into the bathtub after a good rinse, Toga immediately straddled him, fangs poised to sink into his neck. He let her and the blonde once more sucked his lifeblood out of his system, his skin going paler as each second went by.

Soon after, Toga released him and Izuku's skin went back to being its normal color, the blonde panting as she snuggled up on Izuku. She wasn't this affectionate a few days prior. It was quite a surprise when all manner of reservations from the blonde vampire-ish girl vanished, replaced by a very forward and clingy girl.

Maybe it had something to do with her late-night dives into the internet using his computer after he had dropped the bomb about Nezu wanting her. But he didn't want to pry, plus, she was happier this way. He could feel it.

The two of them finished with their bath and got out of the tub. They got dressed in the clothes they had brought, Toga using her school uniform that his mother had gleefully sewed back together, and Izuku with a plain shirt and pants.

Incidentally, Toga kept on gluing herself to him with her bare skin, to which Izuku grew a bit confused. Why did she like touching skins with him? Was there something special about his flesh? He looked at her impish smile and tilted his head.

Yep, he was still confused.

"Hey, Zuzu..." Toga called him out with her nickname for him. Not that bad, considering the other nickname he was called in the past was derogatory. "Do you know why Nezu wants me there?"

"I have no idea." Izuku shrugged. "He said he wanted to test you, and that's all he told me. Also, bring pen and paper."

Toga frowned for a moment, before it was replaced with a beaming smile as she hugged Izuku, making sure her assets were pressing against him, not that it did anything to the emotionally stunted man. "It's okay. I have you! Also, more blood later, please?"

"Sure. I have a lot to give." And wasn't that the truth. No matter how many times Izuku was drained by Toga, and how gluttonous she was with his blood, the First Flame made sure it was replenished by the time she was done. Didn't this make him immortal? A contrast to his limited immortality in Lordran?

To be fair, there wasn't anything that managed to wound him to the point where his body gave out yet in Japan, so maybe it wasn't pure immortality and just the same as what he had in Lordran.

"Aww... I love you so much Zuzu!" Toga hugged Izuku again, her nose buried within the crook of his neck. He didn't see anything wrong with this, so he just patted the head of the girl while wearing a smile on his face.

Nothing that weird in the grand scheme of things.

Himiko was having the best day of her life. After that fateful night - not the night where she conked out after drinking a lot from Izuku, the one where Nezu sent her an invite - she threw caution to the wind and decided to embrace her inner urges.
