"I can give the elbow pads some extra padding, if you need it," Yaoyorozu tells him, looking a little nervous. Todoroki looks down at the elbow pads she's already made.
"There's enough, I think," he says. 'Enough' might be a bit of an understatement - he's not sure there's any room for his elbows as is.
"Are you sure?" she asks. "My first time - oh, I scrapped my knees so badly, you wouldn't believe–"
"Momo," he cuts her off. "I'm fine. You don't need to protect me. I'm still not convinced the pads are necessary at all." She gives him a wry smile and shrugs. Todoroki steps onto the brightly-colored 78cm piece of maplewood.
A second later, he finds himself on his bottom, tailbone smarting. Yaoyorozu can't hold back the small laugh.
"You underestimate the ferocity of skateboards." she says, amused. He sighs, and allows her to pull him to his feet.
"It would appear so," he looked down at the skateboard in question. "Yet again, I am reminded that I should listen to you more often." She nods.
"You could certainly stand to do so," she agrees.
