บท 3: Baku Brings a (un)Welcomed Guest
Shouto ended up staying overnight and into the next day's afternoon. Baku was going to lose his mind if he heard one more thing about Rey's and Kylo Ren's future relationship.
"Who the fuck cares about two space nerds fighting in space about some past family drama? This whole series is bullshit." Baku throws the TV remote at Deku, growling at him to change the channel when he catches it.
"Baku, please, he needs to catch up with the nerd cultures! The poor boy doesn't understand much!" Izuku teased. "Weren't you into any of this stuff when you weren't, uh… Like this?"
"Gotta be the best, there's no relax time for this crap. Any time I would spend obsessing over this I could be either sleeping or working."
Shouto cracked a smile. "No wonder you've got a whole ass tree trunk up your ass."
Baku stood up quickly, his eyes narrowed darkly and his face an angry red. "I'm going out. I'll be back, and when I am, this half-assed bastard better kick the curb. Bye asshole and Deku." Baku turned around to Izuku's bedroom to change out of his lounge clothes, opened the window and jumped out without closing it back.
Izuku swallowed, pointing to his open bedroom. "I'm gonna—I'll close that."
"You should get him microchipped. Buy a little collar and bell for him too," Shouto commented when he saw Izuku move back towards his small living room.
"I'd have to ask if he's okay with that first, I think. I think when he's in his 'normal form' we can find each other with our phones… But with him as a cat would be harder." Izuku slumped against his couch, already lost in thought.
Shouto hummed and scooted near him, his mind's gears running as well, but for an entirely different reason. "Do you think the Skywalker legacy will be carried over with Ben and Rey?"
Izuku groaned, "It was a mistake to let you watch all those movies."

Shouto left an hour later, with three missed—ignored—calls from his dad and left two voicemails for his mom to let her know he was heading over. Izuku walked him outside with a rushed shuffle before yelling out a "good bye!" and shutting the lobby door behind him. Izuku stiffly moved his body back up the stairs to his apartment, the minute outside already too much for his frail bones and bare legs.
"Shoulda slipped on jeans instead of these old shorts," the man mumbled as he made a burrito blanket nest on his couch, efficiently wrapping himself in everything remotely warm in his little apartment.
He didn't realize that he slipped into a warm nap criss-cross on his couch, the only thing waking him up was scratching on his front door. Izuku wiped at his eyes a bit, still thinking he was dreaming about god-knows-what, until he heard a long mewl and a loud thump that could've been considered a body slam of sorts.
"I'm comin', comin'… Jeez," Izuku yelled out sluggishly, instantly upset when a cool AC breeze hit his exposed legs and arms. He looked through the peep-hole of his door, the fisheye glass not really giving him the view of below. Izuku sighed and unlocked his door, the mewling on the other side stopping instantly as Izuku wrestled with the stiff frame.
The cat, Baku, brought over a guest. The green-haired man yawned as he watched a dog pick up Baku by his neck and carry him inside, the dog's tail wagging happily even when Baku started to hiss and scratch at the mutt's nose.
The dog then let go of Baku, and Izuku watched the little kitten land gracefully on his four paws, before he ran across the room to jump on top of the kitchen table from one of his chairs. The cat meowed, almost sounding annoyed that he brought home the dog.
"Well, why'd ya bring him home?" Izuku questioned the cat, giving the red-haired dog a sideways glance.
The cat's meows took a long, deeper pitch. Izuku can almost hear Baku tell him to "Shut the fuck up, Deku!" Baku pointed with a paw to the dog, then proceeded to address the mutt.
"You know I can't actually understand you when you're like this Baku, it's funny in front of Shouto, but I don't wanna embarrass myself in front of this guy," Izuku looked back at the dog, his green eyes scanning it's fit body for a collar or ID tag or something to help Izuku bring him back to his owner. Instead, Izuku noticed his small, almost cream-colored, "eyebrows" over his wide red eyes.
The dog whimpered, upset about something. Izuku sighed and turned to the dog, petting his head softly, hoping the dog wasn't going to bite him. "You can stay tonight, doggo. But tomorrow we'll find your owner! I'm sure they're worried you aren't home for dinner."
The dog barked softly, giving Izuku a smile. Or an attempt of a smile. Izuku returned a bright smile of his own anyways.
———————————————————————————————————
Mornings with a shifter changed mornings forever for Izuku. Baku as a cat was a light sleeper, waking up if Izuku's arm twitched or he groaned as a response to a dream he was having. Human Baku was anything but a light sleeper. Izuku's mornings were impossible to start if he's stuck in two beefy arms, getting pulled tighter to his pale chest.
Izuku sighed, currently stuck in Baku's constricting grip again. He tried everything to wiggle out, even pinching his arms—there's no fat, all muscle, Izuku noted—and biting the man's biceps as hard as he can.
It all resulted with Baku grumbling something and pulling him tighter, which Izuku honest to god thought it was impossible. So, he admitted a silent defeat and got comfortable, snoozing off after a couple of minutes.
———————————————————————————————————
The next time Izuku woke up that morning, he wasn't a body pillow to Baku but he was smelling bacon. He doesn't actually know if Baku can cook, but he was a human before the incident happened, so he had to at least know how to cook basic soggy bacon and bland scrambled eggs.
His stomach grumbled, urging the rest of his body to go investigate. Izuku peeled off his blankets and stood up quickly, his nose leading himself to the kitchen to greet his cat-roommate-shifter-man.
Izuku's stomach growled louder, the deep whale call noise attracted not one man standing in Izuku's small apartment kitchen, but two. The red head stood near his stove very naked and very happy about bacon.
Izuku might just faint.
