[44]

-feel free to listen to the music while you read-

"I still don't like how we're doing a fucking love song!" Bakugo argued, Toko sitting at the head of the large modern glass meeting table. "I think is cute!" Izuku commenter, immediately being shushed by the angered blonde. "I don't give a fuck-" "stop swearing Kat," Todoroki cut his boyfriend off, "this is a professional meeting, stop having a temper tantrum," Shinso smirked at the killer glare Bakugo had. "We already know the lyrics and everything, why not just-"  "shut up Deku!" Izuku sunk in his seat, hiding himself in his jumper as the blonde continued to yell about how their song was 'weak'. "Don't treat your lead like that," Toko pitched in, a soft tone of voice contributing to his soft frown. "My WHAT!?" "His what?" Both Bakugo and Izuku cut in, shock written on their faces. "Midoriya, you're the lead singer, you're like the boss of the band or whatever," Seishin put a comforting hand on the smallest boys shoulder. "N-no, I-I can't l-lead a band!" Izuku stuttered out, flapping his arms around dangerously, his wings slowly wrapping around himself in a reaction to his heightened anxiety. "Yeah! He can't lead a band-" Bakugo received a soft slap at the back of the head from his dual coloured boyfriend.

"I think Midoriya would be a great leader," Todoroki countered Bakugo's comment, smiling down at the trembling boy. "Nu," Izuku mumbled out, completely cocooned in his wings, slowly sliding out of his seat and under the glass table. "Vote someone else!" He sat under the table, picking at his fingers nervously. Kaminari slid under the table with him, hiding inside the closed wings and stopping the boy from making his fingers bleed. "We don't really need a leader do we, we could all be in charge or something," Shinso commented, looking at the pair under the table with unnoticeable love. "I guess you're right, when it comes to making decisions, you could use majority vote or just ask Seishin and I," Toko smiled brightly as the group came to a conclusion. "Anyways, how are you feeling Midoriya?" Toko asked, referring to the kidnapping incident, all while wearing the face of a concerned father. "I'm doing ok, better than I expected!" Izuku chirped, having slid back into his seat after Kaminari comforted him.

"You think you'll be able to record?" He asked, making sure Izuku was comfortable enough to sing. "Maybe, I haven't sung since the incident, but I'm sure I could handle it," he explained, fiddling with his feathers instead of his fingers, making everyone at the table smile proudly. "Alright, when do you wanna start recording, at latest, Friday next week, in case you didn't know already, it's Wednesday," Toko pressed a button on a wrist watch he wore, smiling at the shocked faces of the band as a projector jumped out from the ceiling, showing a calendar marked with different dates and meetings. "So, next Friday-" he started tapping on his watch, the calendar being drawn on as he does, "- is the latest time to debut, I was thinking around Monday, you guys would want the weekends to yourselves, since you are still children, but for some private reason, none of you go to school, so I'll also hold home schooling lessons with a hired tutor, I've also marked the day where you meet up with another band that works with us, you may know them as R-H or Rizumu Hero's, they aren't that far in their music career since it's only been a month, but they're pretty good guys," Toko gestured to dates as he went on, circling and crossing things off that were irrelevant.

"I feel like you guys meeting them would be good for future collaborations, maybe even future tours," Toko went on and on about specific details, everyone seeming to agree about dates and times. Though they were a little reluctant about being tutored, they couldn't really change the fact they were still fifteen sixteen year olds, so they just went with it. "And we all agree on the name chosen?" He finally mentioned, the band name not being brought up until now. There were a series of agreements and nods, "alright Yusha-B, that concludes today's meeting, next meeting will be next Wednesday, though you have to come in on Monday to work on the song, I'll bring along R-H to Wednesday's meeting, so be prepared," Toko recapped, making sure he marked the dates down as he went on. The meeting had gone relatively smoothly, so hopefully the next one would aswell.
