...Midoriya-kun, in what way does our having been through something invalidate your comfort level? We should all be comfortable, and I'm sure Kaminari-kun didn't mean any harm, but I'd have figured he had the sense to understand not to go where he did. You didn't experience the things we did, it isn't right to effectively force them upon you anyway.
[He's just gonna squeeze Izuku's fingers a little.]
To regurgitate your own words back at you once more, "if it ever gets to be too much, you can talk to us". [A pointed look.] Your emotional well-being is important to us, as your friend, so if I can make such a request, please don't place it below anyone else's.
[His head tilts just slightly, and he closes his eyes, shifting his thumbs over the back of each of Izuku's fingers which he squeezes lightly as he goes. The motion is methodical, and probably largely unconscious.]
I somehow doubt you would. And anyway, I believe most of us would speak up. [He opens his eyes to frown at their hands, and opens his own to allow Izuku to recoil if he wants. His own don't move.]
[ He does take his hands back, but it's not...strictly personal? He's just more uncomfortable with physical contact with people from that other place, right now. ]
You have seen how excited she gets about tea, have you not? I don't doubt she would be delighted to know you had any, and were making it yourself... Though knowing her she would give you specific origins of the type you're drinking and a laundry list of its health benefits. And probably some snack to have with it to enhance the flavor. She's quite something, really.

[ Said like a student who suspects his teacher might think his answer is wrong, despite thinking his answer is...right... ]

You are absolutely impossible, you know that? Give me your hands for a moment.

He'll set his own tea down and give Tenya his hands, somewhat hesitantly. ]

[ Hm. ]
I don't want to ask any of you to...do anything that might make you uncomfortable.

At any rate, it wasn't a big deal.
no subject
[Tenya sits back and reclaims his tea, giving him a funny look.]
I still felt it necessary to make sure. You aren't... the most prone to putting your foot down when it comes to your own wellbeing.
no subject
[ So he's just...being sensitive, or something. Besides, he's dealt with worse. ]
no subject
All right, all right. Apologies for coming over mostly just to nag you.

[ Izuku looks down, going to retrieve his own tea cup once again. ]
Well, at least it likely means she went home...?
let's just pretend he's not chugging oj in this icon okay
She would be proud of your tea-making, though. I myself have never been very good at it.
no i refuse he definitely suddenly is chugging oj
[ Or, well, she chooses REALLY good teas and Izuku's over here buying less expensive stuff. ]
he turns tea into oj instead of water into wine
I might have you do that sometime, actually. And I believe she would be tickled to know you make tea at all, really.
i mean, a useful talent really
[ When you live alone with only your mother anyway... ]
especially for someone who basically lives off of it

[ Izuku needs to check in with her again himself... ]

[And he did a lot of random research on tea for her birthday, but.]

[ He does self-study but it's not the SAME. ]
