[GETTING BUSY... Honestly, Damian actually looks kind of mortified by the idea. Like seeing someone in a brand new light. Izuku claims it was just sharing a bed, and now, even the son of the World's Greatest Detective is confused.
Sometimes, he and Jon share a bed, begrudgingly, but that doesn't mean they're an item??
For a long moment, Damian just stares at Izuku's red, mostly hidden face, and then he looks up at Dave. It's falling together like dominos. It's been six months, and he had not even an ounce of inkling. Amazing.]
They are. [Now, Izuku looks a bit more excited, even straightening up like he's got something interesting to tell.]
I think even the town knows it somehow. They both got this embroidered heart thing as a quest reward once. [He's just grinning at this point.] I haven't seen anyone else get that before--I think it's just them.
[Well, all this gossip talk is at least helpful in taking Izuku's attention away from his embarrassment. He sets his first pumpkin down.] Done. Can you hand me another one, Strider-kun?
[WHAT THE FUCK. He's supposed to be Robin. He's supposed to be aware of everything, and look at this horseshit right in front of his face!! ROMANCE. He's sitting at the damn table with two halves of sparkly gay couples gossiping about another one, and he's none the wiser!!!
Honestly, he's embarrassed...]
Are you serious? [He doesn't sound stunned by the gayness so much as he JUST DIDN'T KNOW. (But now he does, so look out Guren.)] Are we talking about the same Ichinose here?
Guren Ichinose, lieutenant colonel of the Japanese Imperial Demon Army?
Well, yeah, has to be. Ain't like we got two Gurens like we do Johns. [ or jons. however you want to spell your best friend's name, i guess!! ] ...I wonder how in the fuck that happened, though. I guess maybe they hung out a lot because adults?
I didn't get the details... not that sensei would tell me anyway. [Izuku smiles lopsidedly.] He's more likely to give me a noogie and tell me how it's none of my business.
[Starting on another pumpkin now... somewhat distractedly.]
Now that I think about it, a lot of people have been pairing off while we're stuck here.
[Damian just pauses to... stare. Todoroki? Izuku didn't even deny it, so it's true. Damian's eyes jump up to Dave, and maybe that's all it take, seeing Dave going too hard on in the pumpkin.]
Listen, you two idiots, if I wanted a confessional spiel, I would just build a booth in the church and go. [He's still looking at Dave.] You, too?
Is that why you're house is the color it is, Strider?
What, no! [ about the house. ] I mean, that happened way before anything, I'm pretty fuckin' sure the only thing the houses have to do with shit color wise is like, it's a mix of whoever lives there.
Are you sure? Kent has been with me in the boathouse, but it hasn't changed colors. [Also, shhhhh. IT ISN'T HIS FAULT. It's totally his fault.] Or does it take more than simply two people for it to work?

[ dave waggles his eyebrows, so it's PRETTY CLEAR what he means. ...has he ever once considered damian's age EVER when saying shit around him.
no ]
no subject
No, nothing like that! [Thankfully, or he'd probably never be able to look Guren or Dextera in the eyes again.] They were just sharing the bed.
[Still, the embarrassment lingers, and Izuku hunches slightly over his pumpkin, carving with a newfound enthusiasm as he turns even redder.]

Strider-kun, don't you have something else to add?
[Firing right back at you!!]

Strider-kun's right, though. The different colors just mean there are people from other districts living there, too.

[Don't mind him, he's still just diligently and reluctantly carving his second pumpkin over here.]
