are you happy? it comes one of the first few days after denki moves in: follows him like a shadow around the apartment, feet slow to carry him to the sofa. hands brace weight against the back of it. he’s just noticed that his - their - living room is set up like the common area of the u.a. dorm building. if thoughts weren’t so busy churning over the question at hand, maybe he’d wonder why happy had triggered that observation; why it takes denki’s presence in it to draw realization out of his subconscious.
are you happy? it is a casual ease, curious more than anything else. the cast line of denki’s more serious questions always are. (what happened last summer? what am i to you? do you love yourself? are you happy?) katsuki is a deep sea fish, too keen to bite the bait right off the hook and keep it for himself instead of climb upward toward where light reaches his secrets.
are you happy? it’s never that simple. katsuki doesn’t have the wherewithal to put the puzzle pieces together. fingers dig into the upholstery in a way he’d scold the cats for.
❛ what are you actually asking me? ❜
are you happy? it had been a question like this that ended them. that had been the beginning of it, anyway. today it is lighter. perhaps a reflection of the white walls and white light, an ugly - greyish hue on the apartment floors because it is mid - morning and that’s the reality of it. not everything is sunrise and sunset and starry skies and golden. sometimes it’s just dreary, regular, business hour.
work — being a pro, you know? breaking top five — is it everything you’d hoped? tell me you love this, tell me you’re not miserable... cause this apartment is cool and all, bakugou - but it looks like the home of a miserable person.
❛ i picked it for the view. it’s the closest to a mountain top within the city and i do still love being at the top. ❜ it is supposed to be a joke but it is true. least the part about the city view is. the relationship with hero work is a little more complicated. his expression is not quick enough to seal that in. the smile is a ghost on his lips. it doesn't quite answer either question.
❛ i still love it. i’m not miserable — just busy. ❜ (amd. re: the originial question: he is not happy, just busy.)
