The villain’s eyes follow the server as he walks away, an eyebrow raised in the only acknowledgment of the other’s comment.
Maybe he played it just a little stupid (and tremendously dangerous), but Izuku, while accepting said fact, doesn’t really consider himself dense. It’s all going to pay off one way or the other, either by finding out at least some of the answers to his questions, or bringing attention to him. He can use both.
As he bides the time for the other boy’s return, Izuku slowly scans the other patrons’ appearances. Nothing out of ordinary for this kind of place, and nothing his eyes would rest upon for longer than just a moment. Oh well.
Once the server returns, Izuku welcomes him with another smile; a bit different than the one he gave him before. “So,” he begins, “How about you answer my question, and I answer yours in return?” Sounds shady, but then he follows with a quite innocent inquiry: “Why do you think I came here?”
Coming back with the fries, Rody set them down in front of his current patron of interest. The pink bird stayed in her place by the bar.
Hearing the other start, Rody knew something was up. Well, he knew something was up since the guy walked in. He squints a bit, raising an eyebrow at the inquiry. It doesn't hurt to entertain him. "Sure." Rody smiled leaning against the booth, getting 'comfortable.' He thought maybe the question would be straight to the point, and Rody would finally have a clear answer to why he was here. With that expectation, the actual question caught him off-guard for a moment.
But he liked it.
The brunette hummed with a smile. "People come here for lots of different reasons. To generalize, they come here looking for jobs and information. To meet with others they plan to work with." There was a pause as Rody looked him over. "Seeing that you asked me a question like that, I don't think you're here for any jobs. I think you're already on the job, looking for something."
He leaned in a bit from his side of the booth. "Now, should I ask the obvious question and hope you answer me honestly?" He rhetorically asked before asking his real question. "What's your real reason for coming here? I think being honest is in your best interest if you want what you're looking for. But that's just your server speaking."
Your Waifu Score!
He glanced down at his clothes.
"Maybe we should take some of those fashion points and put them in the loving and teasing categories, eh?" He couldn't argue with being a mom. He did take care of his siblings after all.
“Nice to see that I have some supporters rooting for me.” It was definitely giving Rody more confidence that he could beat the hot-headed blonde.
us-smash:
“Oh yeah great idea rody lets break my already jigsaw like body even more to let the bone vampires drink my bone marrow!”
He gritted his teeth, not being able to argue against how broken Deku's body was.
But-
"Do you want me to deal with them head-on? You're the hero!"
It was a new day and the brunette and his family were in the middle of eating breakfast. Despite last night's event, the morning was surprisingly relaxing.
Thud.
Rody froze. Looks like he thought too soon. Did that idiot try to get up? Pino was already flying towards the bedroom, Rody following right behind her. He gripped the door handle and burst into the room in a panic. Seeing the situation, he groaned in annoyance.
"Don't you know when you're at your limit?" Rody marched on over without hesitation, helping Izuku get back up on his feet before gently shoving him to sit on the bed. He glared down at him with a serious expression as Pino sat in the corner, wallowing in worry.
"You're all messed up. You need to rest. Don't be stupid."

It had been quite a while since Izuku had actually seen Rody face to face but he still helped from a distance despite being pushed away. like leaving boxes of things at their home with no name of who had given them, protecting his siblings from trouble and teaching them how to fight so they can defend themselves. He had even bailed Rody out of trouble recently when one of those carrying jobs of his went wrong, just like he said it might in the future. thankfully he wasn’t spotted when chasing those people away so that was a silver lining there, he knew that boy wouldn’t be happy if he found out he was doing all this still despite being told that his help wasn’t wanted and to be left out of things.
As for himself however he had run into a problem of his own, having been beaten pretty badly. Blood was everywhere on him and he had left a trail of it behind until he had dragged himself up against a wall, feeling himself slowly lose consciousness. It would be fine Izuku just needed to catch his breath then he could make it back to his place to fix himself up, now passed out against the wall for anyone to find him in this state.
The silence that lingered after extending his hands was strange. But now that he was properly looking at the hero, he noticed that there was... nothing in his hands? If he wasn’t carrying anything, what in the world needed to be held? He opened his mouth to question the situation, to ask if something was wrong, but never got the chance.
Glancing down at Deku’s hands on his own gloved ones, he stood perfectly still and had to process this for a minute. He wasn’t hallucinating right? “Oh.. Oh.” After the moment of panic, Rody let out a laugh, giving Izuku’s hands a squeeze in response.
“Haha, were they really that heavy, Deku? Oh, you poor thing. I can help lighten the load then.”

Oh he actually did it, Izuku feeling his heart pound in his chest now. Alright Izuku you can do this you’ve held hands with people before this isn’t any different! Yet the thought of it was making his heart go faster and a tinge of pink come to his face. Taking the plunge and just going for it the greenette quickly placed his hands into Rody’s to hold them.
Rody was so focused on running and planning the escape route in his head that the sudden speaking caused him to trip. He didn't fall but- "Why are you following me?" He spoke up in confusion, glancing over at the taller woman.
"If you must know, I'm in the middle of doing my job! Not much time for chit chat, sorry." At that moment, Pino flew a few feet in front of the woman's face, chirping loudly to distract her or cause her to stop.
Having someone on his trail like this is risky for his type of occupation.

Looked like those two were in a hurry or were running from something, either way it had caught Serena’s interest. When something caught her interest naturally she would want to investigate it to see what was going on there, turning back to see if anyone was following them before seeing if anyone was looking at her. Thankfully nobody was so just to be a little safe the girl flickered her wrist and made a cloud of smoke appear behind her before giving chase to the brunette and his feathered friend. If someone was following then it may take a second to get through the smoke if they were looking but by then they would be long gone so it works out! Maybe she would even make her first friend here so Serena caught up to them with curious eyes. “So what’s got your feathers all ruffled to be in such a hurry?”
Can I just say I love you so much
"Well, thank you~ I can't blame you; I am pretty great."
