SOLD SOON AFTER THE APPRAISAL // joiners

[arcy]

Joining Sunhaven was not Izuku's finest decision. He doesn't do well in the heat, at all -- beaches were no good for him. Plus, they reminded him of the Typhoon. .. They weren't as bad as he thought they'd be, but their scent reminds him of blood and rage nonetheless.
But, Izuku is a sentimentalist if nothing else. He has nowhere to go, now that Snowbound was in flames. He's sure Atbash would be happy to see him if he joined the Ascendants, but ...
...
Whatever.
This is a fresh start.
He's feeling lighter than he has ... in months. The ever-present crushing hollowness and loneliness just .. isn't as heavy, anymore. He allows himself a grin as he investigates. He forgot how much he missed his friends. The appearance of his classmates in Snowbound had been annoying, but .. he's happy to be with Todoroki again.
..
He thinks he likes it here, heat and water aside. Izuku ruffles his wings, staring out into the distance with bright eyes. He's not sure if he'll like it as much as he liked Snowbound, but ... well. It was nice here.
He jolts back to attention at Todoroki's shout. His ears prick as he whirls around, smiling as he trots back to the chimera.
"Sorry, Todoroki," He apologized, his grin widening sheepishly. He .. wasn't used to having other people to stick around. It was just sort of .. he and himself. What a sad sack he was. He snorts. "I'm right here," He confirms with little pause, lowering his head to gently butt Todoroki's shoulder in apology.
