Great! We'll have to make the cake when he's going to be gone for a while so he doesn't know what we're doing...

Why don't you just make it at my house? We're neighbors, after all.

That's a good idea, if it's okay with everyone who lives there too! I can bring over the ingredients so you don't have to worry about those.

Why wouldn't it be alright? We're baking a cake. Is there something I'm missing about the cake? Katsuki doesn't like very sweet things, so I hope you picked a good flavor.

I wouldn't want to be an intrusion if someone needs the kitchen for something else, that's all!

I was thinking a dark chocolate cake with whipped frosting, that shouldn't be too sweet.

It's as much MY kitchen as it is Loki's and Gamora's, and I've invited you to use it with me. Am I missing something? Do you not want to make the cake without being caught? Is this part of the secret? To be baking the whole time worrying Katsuki will come in and catch us and then he does? [She's not asking maliciously, she is genuinely confused by all this.] I've invited you to join me in my home, Mr. Izuku, either decline me politely or stop telling me how meddlesome it is to have you in it.

And what about decoration?

It's probably because I'm just used to living with 19 other people, that's all! We have to coordinate who wants to be using the kitchen because there's a lot of us.

I haven't thought about that yet, what do you think? Any ideas?

19 other people! Good heavens, why? Did you live in a dormitory? Or something much worse? A work house?

And either way, you don't live with 19 other people now, though, I do know how possessive Katsuki is of his kitchen... and you're all clearly making a valiant attempt to get back to 19...

Orange, obviously, though not for the whole thing, that would be tacky, and black frosting stains the tongue, which I imagine he'd hate. So orange and perhaps... oh! The little shapes he wears in his hair for his hero attire! We could have those symbols on it in a few places! [Alice is taking her brother's cake SUPER seriously. No cherry blossoms, even if they ARE the flower he tolerates most.]

[ He laughs. ] Don't worry, it's a dormitory! I live at my school with my other classmates. [ Well, most of the time. ] Each class has their own separate dorm building they live in on the school campus.

There's only five of us right now so there's a lot to go but maybe! [ He'd be really curious why Vaeros would bring a bunch of hero students to his world... They're a pretty strong force when they're all together! ]

That's a great idea! Let's do that! Should we make it the day before we plan the party? Or the day of?

I've never been allowed to visit the dorms at the university, mama says they're not a place for a lady. Papa has had to go to the dormitories, from time to time, more often to deal with huge emergencies or troublemakers than anything else.

Hopefully, you aren't visited by the headmaster for such a thing... either thing.

Hmm... on the one hand, I do wish to give him the freshest cake possible, on the other, I don't want us to be running around all flustered AND having to make a cake on the same day. We should focus on just celebrating Katsuki on his actual day!

The dorms I live in are a little different from that. The boys live on one side and the girls live in the other but there's a big room in the middle we can all hang out together at.

Not by the principal, thank goodness... but sometimes we get in a little trouble with our head teacher... [ Poor Mr. Aizawa... ]

Then the night before should be good! If we wrap it up good, I'm sure it will be fine.

Does he beat you or cane you when you're in trouble? Though, you're all heroes, I suppose you might be punished differently.

Wrap up the cake? Won't that ruin the frosting and decorations? Why not just put it in the ice box?

No, never! Teachers don't do that anymore in the time I'm from, it's considered very cruel to do that now. Sometimes he has to use a special scarf of his to restrain us if we're physically fighting and not stopping, he uses it... kind of like a lasso? But he can be pretty scary when he's really mad so really all he has to do is just glare at us to get us to stop... and we don't really fight a lot with each other anyway! We're all friends and get along pretty well!

Yeah that's what I meant, sorry! If we make sure it's in a sealed container with a lid and put it in the fridge, it'll keep well! Would you be willing to bring it to the party the next day if we make it the night before?

Well, I suppose it is a good thing that they can't strike children anymore, I don't think I ever did anything bad enough to be struck. Then again, I'm not a teacher. A lasso, so... your teacher is a cowboy like in the stories? Does he wear the hat Cowboys wear?

[She's not sure you have to put a cake in a sealed container, but the person she would ask is Katsuki, although, maybe one of the princesses would know! She'll ask them.]

I would be happy to bring it over, Mr. Izuku. Who are we inviting?

He's not really a cowboy, it's actually called a capture weapon. It's just that he uses it like a rope or lasso! He can bind people up with it to pull them closer or move them around or keep them from getting away and other things like that.

You probably know the people he knows best here. Who do you think we should ask?

Alright, I shall ask the people he knows to join us.

Starting with:

Mr. Izuku, will you come to Katsuki's birthday party? I'll make formal invitations later.

Oh, ah... I'll help set it up and prepare things for it, of course! But I don't think Kacchan would like it if I was actually there... Things have always been really complicated between us...

[What?]

..... I beg your actual pardon?

That might possibly be the stupidest thing that I have ever heard come out of your mouth, Mr. Izuku.

Why on earth wouldn't Katsuki want you there? Complicated or not, you're his friend and you're setting up this WHOLE THING with me!

Make whatever it is UNcomplicated because you're going. I will drag you by your ear myself if I must to get you there!

[ Oh dear, he didn't imagine she'd get so fiery about it... It makes him sweat nervously even more. ]

I'm not sure if Kacchan would consider us friends... I don't think I've ever heard him say that word about me since we younger than you... He gets annoyed a lot of the time whenever I'm around and it's his birthday so I want to make sure he enjoys it...!

Of course he hasn't said the word, Katsuki is all about his actions! And obviously you sense that enough or you wouldn't have asked for help to throw him a birthday party! Honestly, your own words are contrary to your actions. Were you really planning on making all these arrangements and NOT coming?

You will hurt him if you don't come, and I will NEVER forgive you for hurting him like that, Izuku!

Well... [ Yes he was really planning on throwing a party he didn't intend to come to, truly thinking Bakugo would prefer that. Bakugo has been here the longest out of all the people from their world and he's made quite a few good friends here so Izuku wants to make sure he has a chance to celebrate with them all! ]

Okay, I promise I'll come. [ It's still going to end in a disastrous encounter between the two but at least some things will get cleared between them...! ]
