dextera’s ears burn, a flush creeping up his neck, but izuku’s guess isn’t wrong. they’ve been together for a couple weeks now, if dextera counts from the moment of their first kiss.
he nods, but he seems pleased, even in his embarrassment. ]
[ dextera shakes his head. they weren’t doing anything scandalous, so it was fine—they were just cuddling, and dextera was also fast asleep, so he only caught a moment of it when izuku first saw them. ]
I understand. That’s why I was there.
[ he knew immediately something was wrong because the town’s gift let him know—but just cuddling for the sake of cuddling also wouldn’t have been bad. ]
The town… connected us. [ he doesn’t really know how to explain this in words that are easy to follow. the more complicated the sentiment, the harder it is to sign, and it’s not like he’s an expert or anything. ] I knew when he was in trouble. So I came.
[ it was extremely stressful at the time, to have his beloved feather suddenly turn the blood-red of guren’s text color, but now he can appreciate it for what it was—a warning, possibly of guren alone. it’s for the best that he’ll never know the other person it would have changed for. ]
…heh. [ dextera expression warms. ] I should thank #FFFFFF.
[ spelled in sign as 6F, because writing out all six Fs sounds like a pain. ]
["Smitten" is a good look on Dex, if Izuku's honest. Well, any kind of happiness is a good look on him.]
I think you do. [After all, things had gotten better once they started talking to each other again after their fight.] Besides, Ichinose-sensei doesn't seem like the kind of person who would stick around if he didn't want to. He's with you because he likes being with you.
[ no… now he’s going to get shy. his cheeks are pleasantly flushed, and his shoulders seem a little straighter with how much more confident in himself guren’s love makes him. ]
[Oh! Oh, Izuku likes the way that shift makes Dextera looks much more certain of himself. It's nice, seeing him gain that confidence from what he has with Guren now.
Speaking of Guren...a chuckle escapes him before he can help it.]
It's kind of tempting to, though! Seeing his expression would be worth getting noogie'd again.

Y-yeah, I did. I'm so sorry about that, by the way! I just wanted to make sure sensei was okay after what happened in the forest.

Oh yeah, it makes sense that sensei would have told you about the trip beforehand. Were you waiting for him that whole time?

[It's nice to see Dextera so relaxed--Izuku smiles at him just as warmly in return.]
I'm really happy for you and sensei. You two deserve to be happy.

He means… a lot to me. [ dextera nods. that’s the best way to put it. ] I hope I can make him happy, too.
