[He doesn't do anything even remotely half-assed, like he's marginally incapable of doing anything at less than 150% at all times. He waits for her to sit before he does the same, fussing with something hidden sitting at his hip on the bench beside him for a moment.]
Absolutely! I missed Midoriya-kun's birthday, and then I wasn't even present for Jiro-kun's, so I've set myself reminders to ensure no more birthdays are forgotten!
[A big dumb smile, and he lifts his hidden treasure-- it's a little box, full of several cubby-like squares, each filled with a different sort of tea. ...He couldn't for the life of him decide which she would like most, so he just opted to give her All Of Them. He presents it to her, setting it between them on the table.]
...Happy Birthday, Yaoyorozu. I know how much you enjoy tea.
Ah-- no, um. I got a little overwhelmed, you see, and bought several, but then I couldn't decide which you might like best, so... I arranged them all in a box so you could try them all.
[He smiles, drumming his fingers on the table between them.]
You're welcome, and I'm glad. It was truly a learning experience, but now I've a bit of a personal interest in it. Perhaps I'll have you give me some lessons, sometime.

...Well, that's very thoughtful of you. Only...what are you hiding, Iida-san?

[Yes. Yes she loves it. The look on her face is nothing short of delighted.]
Thank you so much! I love it. It's absolutely wonderful and you shouldn't have gotten me something so expensive.
no subject
[Please let him spoil you, Momo.]
no subject
[But she accepts it.]
We'll have to try it sometime, soon. Together.
no subject
[Without classes, he was probably going slightly stir-crazy.]
no subject
[She...is a special case.]

[She slides her finger down the menu.]
Avocado toast, and let's try their local tea?
no subject
Do you have any other plans for the day?
no subject
[And she wasn't the type to try and wheedle it out of her.]
no subject
I'm sure she'll have something delightful in store for you.
no subject
[Ironically Momo has the delightful stuff in mind.]
She's...been really good to me lately.
no subject
[His smile remains.]
That is excellent to hear.
no subject
Yeah. She's...got a lot of good energy. I'm glad we're getting this time together.
no subject
As am I. Strange as the circumstances may be, and loathe as I am to personally take vacations, this feels a bit like a very unorthodox one.
no subject
Even if I wish we were back at school.
no subject
I am the same. The lack of structure to my day without classes is... befuddling.

[He looks over the box of tea.]
...Compiling tea, for the past many days. I had no idea it was such a versatile thing.
no subject
[SHOCK.]
no subject
Ah-- no, um. I got a little overwhelmed, you see, and bought several, but then I couldn't decide which you might like best, so... I arranged them all in a box so you could try them all.
[And he had an entire conniption over it, too.]
no subject
Again, thank you. I'm truly touched.
