I don't blow people up just randomly. I blow them up when they're hurting people. Can't promise I won't cuss you out, though. But shoot, give me whatever ways you got and I'll decide if they're stupid or not.
He's from my world. I grew up with him. So no, hating gay people isn't the default... at least not in the Hero crowd, anyway. We're all too busy to give a shit about how other people identify.
Right. Sorry. I didn't mean you'd blow me up randomly if that helps? Like. Don't get me wrong. You're kind of an asshole? But you're also a lot cooler than I actually expected from when we talked. Even if I don't agree with some of the stuff you say about Heroes, you're not anything like the ones back home.
Sorry I got sidetracked. Anyway 1. You could tell him you like guys first and see how he reacts? 2. I don't know if you like him like that at all but you could just. Flirt with him and see what happens???
And then after that we get to the safer options like 3. You could kind of casually talk about someone else you both know who's gay and see how he reacts? 4. Just mention a friend being gay and see what happens?? Or like. It doesn't even have to be a friend. You could probably talk about me and it'd be fine.
I mean, does really it matter if you don't like him? Are you worried you'll hurt his feelings? Because then it might be better to just talk to him about it directly and get it over with...
I think I get it. It's someone you've known a long time, right? And even if he doesn't like you like that Just bringing it up makes everything change. Right?
[There's... a few minutes before Katsuki can reply. It's so on the nose that it actually hurts, and he has to process what Venus wrote a little before he can get his thoughts together.]
Yeah.
Yeah, that's it exactly. Our relationship is... complicated. Extremely complicated. And we're only just now figuring out how to be friends again after a long period of time where I pushed him away and abused him because I admired him and didn't want to admit it.
I don't want to accuse him of something he's not ready to talk to me about, either. I just want to know if I need to prepare myself for it, someday. I have examples of him acting weird if that would help at all.
First: he's always been clingy, follows me around like a puppy most of the time but these last few days he's been particularly clingy. We went to some karaoke thing for an acquaintance and he suddenly held my hand on the way there.
Second: we discussed relationships and romance because some stupid love song was brought up, and even though I observed him and this girl in our class talking and what I thought was flirting back and forth... he told me that he wasn't interested, and wouldn't be a good boyfriend to her anyway.
And then immediately told me that anyone would be lucky to have me.
Third: he challenged me to sing at karaoke, but I refuse to do that kind of shit in front of strangers so I told him I'd show him what an amazing singer I was later. I did, and he fucking cried and then when I threatened him not to tell anyone else that I can sing he told me that he wanted to keep it to himself and be the only person who knew.
This is all sounding a lot?? Like me and my girlfriends???? I mean like. A secret only he gets to know about you?? That's so romantic?????? What the heck! What the heck!!! And he's holding your hand?? Boys don't really I mean Where I'm from, boys don't do that unless it's like. A relationship??
[Hold on. Hold on there, Venus. You're going too fast for someone who didn't even know he was into guys to begin with, and is now starting to think about it far too much.
Wait.. is that why he was so... wait.... no it can't be that he feels like that towards Izuku. He's just a nerd! It'd make sense if it was onesided, Katsuki being so amazing and all that. But being in a relationship? THEM?]
HE SHARED HIS SECRETS WITH ME FIRST OF COURSE IM GOING TO LET HIM HAVE ONE ABOUT ME TOO ITS NOT ROMANTIC IS JUST FAIR AND HAND HOLDING IS SOMETHING WE HAVE TO DO TO SURVIVE IN THIS STUPID PLACE SO ITS NOT ROMANTIC EITHER WERE NOT IN A RELATIONSHIP AND I DONT HAVE FEELINGS FOR HIM I DONT I DO NOT
OH MY GOD YOU ABSOLUTELY HAVE A CRUSH DON'T YOU?? It's gotta be that right?? There's no other way!!! Oh my god. That makes this so much easier??? This whole time I've been like "oh man this is rough you're going to have to figure out how to let him down gently but make sure he knows you still want to be friends" And when you've bullied someone before that can be really rough or awful?? But this is just So much easier! Oh my god!!!
Have you tried just telling him that holding hands with him feels nice? It should be easy to tell from the way he reacts then!!
[As those texts come in, Katsuki could feel the dread settling in his stomach more and more until she comes out and says what he feared she would.
You have a crush on him, don't you?]
STOP IT SHUT THE FUCK UP NO I DONT I DONT HAVE A CRUSH ON HIM I DONT HAVE FEELINGS FOR HIM I DONT THINK ITS NICE TO HOLD HIS HAND I HAVENT THOUGHT ABOUT KISSING HIM BEFORE I DONT WANT TO AND I DONT WANT BE IN A RELATIONSHIP WITH HIM I DONT

And I can maybe offer advice?
