Some good-natured ribbing made its rounds through the common area as Deku, sporting his less conspicuous earbuds, descended the stairs. As he reached the last step he took a deep breath to prepare himself for the hours to come. I don't have to play. I can just watch and be here with everybody like we used to be. I have my music and I'm exhausted from the gym, so the voice should be quiet. Turning around the corner the greenette instantly locked eyes with the person he had purposely been pushing away but desperately wanted to be close to.

While Bakugo showed no outward sign of his relief, inside he was screaming. Pleased was not a strong enough word to describe how he felt seeing his Bunny joining everyone without having to be physically dragged in. As the smaller male slowly moved around the outskirts of the room and made his way towards the spiky haired youth, Katsuki's internal smile dampened as he recognized the small electronics in his partner's ears. Damnit. I thought he was actually gonna go without the headphones for once. Shit. Whatever. Hound Dog and Midnight said to let him so if it helps him be comfortable with the Extras then fine.

The 'Broccoli Protection Squad' had filled in the rest of the class on their plan to try and get their little Cinnamon Roll back so when he approached his boyfriend and Kirishima moved over to make room no one drew attention to the redhead's romantic rival. The sharp toothed teeth merely smiled brightly to his bro and returned to convincing Tokoyami that indeed red was a far superior color to black. A slight blush colored Shark Boy's cheeks when Izuku tried to sit down and was instead pulled into Katsuki's lap.

Slightly startled, the curly haired teen let out an adorable squeak as he found himself seated on firm thighs. Turning to his ruby-eyed captor Deku punched the other playfully in the shoulder but immediately panicked when his captor feigned injury. Quickly realizing the mistake Kacchan reassured his companion that he was indeed unharmed earning himself a pouting greenette. The game, which turned out to be an odd mix of 'Kiss Marry Kill' and 'Charades', began around them as the two settled back into the soft couch.

Noone in class 2A ever truly expected their resident Boom Boom Boi to join in when the group decided to participate in bonding nights. They were more than accustomed to the teen either not gracing them with his presence or doing so reluctantly at the behest of either Deku or Kirishima. Tonight would be no exception to that pattern but with the added twist of Midoriya being an observer rather than a participant as well. The protective blonde had already told everyone that his Bunny wouldn't be joining in with the games for the evening with no protest from anyone. The Hero trainees all knew how scarce their Broccoli Lord's presence was lately so they were content to let him simply be.

After about an hour All Might's successor had opted for scrolling through his phone rather than focus on the shenanigans around him. Much to his boyfriend's approval he continued to sit in the taller male's lap facing the room. A particularly loud laugh from someone caught his attention causing the greenette to look up and take note of the chaos surrounding them.

Several of his friends had traded clothes and a few of the guys seemed to be wearing makeup now. A shirtless Sato was laughing at Aioyama and Tokoyami who were both wearing his missing top. Asui was taped to Sero's back and Momo was standing next to an ice sculpture of herself. What the hell kind of game was this exactly?

Elbowing his partner to gain the blonde's attention from his own phone the freckled teen motioned to the room with his chin. Taking the command in stride Bakugo looked around and was instantly confused. The fuck are the Extras doing? Have these losers finally snapped or what?

Across from the pair on the opposing couch sat the only troubple in the Hero department paying just as much attention to their surroundings as Mr. Aizawa's top two problem children. Denki, Kyouka, and Hitoshi were still seated together just as they were when the evening began but it was clear the three were not part of the class game and had found something else to do together. Something very not class game night related.
