Maybe he would choose a small tuxedo next time so they could have matching formal wear./p

She found some vanilla extract and put it on a cotton /"Say ahh, Izuku!" Nemuri said cheerfully. Izuku looked at the short white wand strangely, opening his mouth slowly./p

He rubbed Izuku's back and hushed him softly. Izuku's cries weren't as loud as before, but he was still worried. He wiped the drool away from Izuku's mouth again, but then he noticed something on Izuku's dresser./p
