Izuku knows he's told a few people his birthday. And, maybe a little unfortunately, that kind of conflicts with what he wants to do. Like .. okay, he's a damn liar and one of his old classmates are inevitably going to come seek him out. And then his other clanmates would show up and hear and panic. Potentially. Izuku knows the formula of how this goes now. He's had months to get used to this, christ. Still, it doesn't stop him from jolting as he hears Kirishima's voice, and looks at the Maned Wolf with wide eyes.
".. I'm fine. And .. no, not really," He admits very softly. His tail curls around himself as he tries not to shrink away. He .. doesn't want to make a big deal about it. But still, he's really, really touched that Kirishima remembered, and even got a gift. His ears twitch, eyes kind of wide, but carefully opens the wrapping. Except he doesn't have hands, so he has to use his claws to get past it. .. It was .. very bright. In color. Ow. Ow. He squints. Bright colors hurt his eyes a lot these days, which was .. probably why he always had headaches. Oops. "Thank you," He says, voice warm as he just sort of .. stares at it. He can and will end up crying, he swears to god. A scarf. Just what he needed. Not for warmth or anything. God knows he didn't need to be any warmer. But .. well, his neck. He had a scar over his throat that was pretty obviously a murder attempt? Not great, basically. At least his other scars didn't look like somebody was trying to kill him. Even if they were. So, quickly, Izuku takes the thing and his paws and throws it around his neck. He doesn't wrap it very well, but he doesn't have hands and even then he only has one paw he can properly use, he can be forgiven.
The Maine Coon's ears turn as he hears All Might's voice next. Oh. The Maine Coon's tail gives a nervous little swish. He forgot he told him, huh. Even so, Izuku allows himself a little grin. And by that he mean's he's grinning but he's also ready to cry because people actually thought to get him gifts??? What sort of world was he living in??? "Thank you," He says again, but it's a little closer to a chirp, now. Brighter. And maybe a little-lot more emotional, because he kind of wants to cry. Honestly, if it weren't for all of the incidents, he'd probably be straightup sobbing. As it were, he just sort of .. sniffles and kind of desperately lifts a paw to rub away the tears. Could he stop crying, people were gonna -- they were gonna ... they weren't the same as everyone else, though. His classmates knew him. But he still .. Uh. Right. Right. Right. He gives up on his already failed quest and instead makes to open the gift given to him. He doesn't mind the bad wrapping, really. Good wrapping was hard to come by and do, trust him. So, he makes it open it. It's obviously something soft, and -- oh, a sweater. Izuku stares at it in puzzlement for a moment, because it was kind of a .. mess. But then he realizes that it was definitely probably handmade and now Izuku is crying all over again. But honestly, what's new.
