"You're.. alive?" Bakugou stays frozen in place, staring at the other, who was seemingly unfazed. Todoroki stays silent, looking at the mortal human before him in disgust. "I saw you fall, from...", the blond squats down so his face was on the same level as Todorokis, looking intently incase this being wasn't real. He saw it. He saw him fall from the sky, from high above. "The land of gods", the smaller of the two points up as if it was a known fact. "The fuck...", Bakugou mutters under his breath, "I'll take you to a doctor". Todoroki shakes his head, finally standing up, his red and white robe dripping in water, "Shouto Todoroki, I'm the child prodigy, the god of fire and ice, son of the hell tamer". Bakugou raises an eyebrow, standing up as well, "gods.. they don't exist. If they did my life shouldn't be that cruel".
"I don't know what you mean by that.. but take me to your kingdom, I need accommodation and food".

Bakugou was sat in his dorm room, with a random stranger. Something about the self proclaimed god intrigued him, however, it was probably a homeless person. Despite that, here he was, looking around the room.
"Could you be anymore nosy??", Bakugou shouts from across the room, "I have personal items here". Todoroki turns around in shock before going to sit down on the office chair. "You don't believe I'm a god do you?", he sighs, resting his chin on his hand. "No sane person would, if you were then give proof then", Bakugou snarls. He was preparing himself to laugh at some half arsed magic trick. "Okay", Todoroki stands up, walking towards the blond, "watch closely". He takes Bakugou's hand with his right, and surely enough, a layer of frost covers both of their hands. In shock, Bakugou retracts his hand. "See I told you".

The next few minutes were just of todoroki doing small things like freezing and lightly burning stuff. Bakugou being amused and forgetting all his problems that had happened in the day.
"You probably shouldn't do this to anyone else," Bakugou melts a piece of ice in his hand, "you'd probably get sent to a lab". Todoroki nods "well I'll be returning in-"
Three loud knocks come from the door followed by a cheerful voice that echoed into the room. "Bakubrooo, let me in!" It was followed by a few more knocks. "Okay WAIT... shit", Bakugou quickly grabs the 'god', pushing Todoroki into the wardrobe and slamming it closed, "don't make a sound". Todoroki was left confused in the dark small space. Not about the situation but how this punishment was well, even considered a punishment. Sure many things like servants and major magic capacity were gone yet the natural earth was almost refreshing. No wars, no expectations and no worries. Earth was perfection yet it lacked the divine. Was it possible that power is the core of corruption? Todoroki let's out a sigh, turning his head to look through the small light crack. Now wasn't the time to think about such topics.

Bakugou opens the door to be greeted with a red head holding a 6 pack of beer, "I thought I'd cheer you up!". Kirishima welcomes himself in, kicking off his shoes and slouching on the sofa. "What do you mean by cheer up?" Bakugou sits on the other side of the sofa, glancing towards the wardrobe then back at kirishima. "I heard about your confession... so I brought some beer to cheer you up," He gives a toothy grin before standing back up, "sadly I can't stay for long, I've got a date". Kirishima snags two beers out the pack and walks towards the door, putting his shoes back on. Bakugou waves good bye and once he hears that door close he lets a relived sigh, "you can come out now uh... icyhot".
Todoroki opens the wardrobe, a frown on his face as he goes to sit on the sofa where the red head was once sitting, "its Todoroki". Bakugou shakes his hand dismissively before opening a can of beer and chugging half of it down. "Anyways.. what confession was your companion talking about?" Todoroki leans his head on to the back of the sofa, awaiting a response. "Just shut up about that", the blond slams the beer can into the table, getting up and going to the wardrobe, "I assume you can't wear ice clothes". Todoroki takes his head off the sofa and looks over, a shirt and basketball shorts launched on to his lap. "They're clothes, since what you're wearing isn't something you wear in public", Bakugou gestures for the smaller to follow him into the bathroom, the other quickly doing so. "Wow these baths are tiny", Todoroki sighed. At home the baths were massive, basically what humans would call an Olympic swimming pool. "Well get out if you don't like it," Bakugou growls, the reminder of the confession putting him in a bad mood. He runs the bath until it's full and exits the bathroom, yet again slouching on the sofa with a beer in hand.
Rejection is horrible but to be expected. Rejection from lovers, society or even yourself, no matter what form it takes rejection is not something you want to encounter. Bakugou takes another beer can and drinks a lot of that down again, stretching his limbs out and trying to relax. Midoriya rejected him for a reason, and the reasons probably clear. "I'm not a loveable person", he takes another swing at the drink before throwing the can on the table. He continued crying even though he hated it. Tears kept coming out, as if some parade to celebrate his misery. Midoriya had been his childhood friend and secret crush even though they grew apart over the years. Bakugou thought he may as well confess as their relationship was he getting worse. A distraction is what he needed and the beer wasn't cutting it.

Todoroki sat in the bath, bringing his fairly toned legs out of the water to see the bubbles slide down his skin and back into the water. At this rate he could survive. He found someone willing to give him what he wanted. Even if it didn't live up to his usual standards. A thankful smile forms on his lips, tears of joy and sadness mix in with the bath. What did his father expect to happen down here. "This is what I call heaven", Todoroki wipes his eyes before submerging into the bath, only some of his face above the water.
Once the water was no longer hot Todoroki steps out, drying himself with the towel. He inspects the clothes Bakugou gave him, after a while being able to put them on. They were white basket ball shorts along with a grey t-shirt, nothing you'd ever see in the land of gods. He looks in the mirror and a small wave of guilt covers him, Bakugou was almost his scapegoat...away from what?

I got 1 view on the last one so thank you very much whoever that was, even though it was probably me. I apologies for the tense changes if you can even notice them, as you can see I'm not the best at grammar. However, I hope you enjoyed it :)
