The first scenario is inspired by the manga: Be Blues! – Ao ni Nare. It's a sports (if you're American: soccer, if you're from anywhere else: football) manga with pretty limited romance, which made the scenario even funnier lmao


Todoroki Natsuo wakes up and looks at his alarm clock that reads 3:30pm. College life has been too good and now he has to make sure to get to his afternoon class on time. He's already been forced back to the family home as a consequence of his grades dropping. If the decline continues, he will probably lose more freedom. His stomach grumbles and he thinks about what to eat while brushing his teeth.

He decides on just grabbing a bento from the convenience store around the corner.

He hears the sliding door of their front entrance open while putting on his clothes. It's too early for it to be Fuyumi or Endeavor (he refuses to call him father, outwardly or in his mind), so it's probably Shouto. Natsuo hesitates on whether to say hello to his brother on the way out or not. It certainly wasn't Shouto's fault, but between the age difference between them, Natsuo trying to be as uninvolved with the family as much as possible, and, of course, the Endeavor in the room, they have been struggling to find any meaningful bond or shared interests other than soba. Natsuo decides against extending his greetings this time and goes straight towards their front entrance.

As he looks for his shoes, he sees Shouto's as well as an unfamiliar pair. 'Huh, guess he brought someone over. That's new.' Upon closer inspection, it looks like it's a girl's pair. 'Woah! Change of plans.'

He then changes his direction and heads toward the most likely place they will be; the living room. This is only so that he can say hello. No ulterior motives here.

"What the-"

His guess ends up being right. Natsuo is not prepared for the next sight though, as he sees his brother (who, up until now, he still considered innocent) pressed up against the person that he brought over on the couch. If some alien that didn't know human behavior saw this scene, he hypothesizes it would think that they are trying to devour each other's faces. He stands there for a few seconds not knowing what to do. "Shouto, what are you doing?" He blurts out after they still didn't notice him. The two immediately break up their make out session, both completely red in the face.

"N-Natsu-nii, your class starts in ten minutes. I thought you would be gone by now." Shouto stutters and his face has a visible a shade of red from being caught red-handed. It might be the first time that Natsuo witnesses his brother act his age.

"Er- I kind of overslept."

"Won't you get in trouble if you're late again?" Shouto immediately asks.

"You're right," Natsu responds before he can stop himself. Shouto hit him right where it hurts. "I answered your question, so could you answer mine?"

"This is…" Shouto ponders for a second, struggling to figure out what to say. "Exactly what it looks like?"

"T-Todoroki-san, I don't think that's what you should say in this situation..." The girl beside Shouto frantically speaks. A high spiky ponytail and similar in height to Shouto. It may only be his imagination after knowing her for approximately twelve seconds, but they look nice together. "Uh- I am Yaoyorozu Momo. It's a pleasure to meet you, Todoroki-san. I'm Todo- Shouto-san's classmate. And, as you can probably tell, I'm also his girlfriend."

"I see… nice to meet you, too. I'm Shouto's older brother, Natsu." He's not sure what else to say in this ridiculous situation that he's only seen in romantic comedies. "Anyway… my bad, I didn't mean to interrupt. It's just- I don't think you should be doing this kind of thing in the living room, is all I wanted to say."

"Okay." Shouto responds.

"Do Sis or Mom know that you have a girlfriend?"

"No. You're the first one to know."

No one says anything else for the next few seconds, not wanting to delve any deeper while also not knowing how to end this conversation. Natsuo is the first to crack. "Well, I guess I'll head to class now. Sorry again and see you later, Shouto and Momo."

Natsuo walks back to the shoe area and then another idea hits him. He returns back to the living room where both of them are still red in the face. "Hey, I'm heading to the convenience store first. Do you want me to get anything?"

"Like what? Are you talking about snacks or something?" Shouto asks.

"Not exactly." Natsuo scratches the back of his head, contemplating the best way to put this. "I mean, I could get you that if you want. But you guys have that, right? That?" He hopes that he made it obvious enough with his voice and hand gestures that he doesn't have to say it out loud.

"That?" Shouto tilts his head in confusion, wondering what his brother could be talking about. Momo, however, realizes what he is implying and has a mortified expression on her face.

"You know... A c-condom. Protection." He clarifies. Momo's face is as red as an apple and she looks like she is about to die from embarrassment. Natsuo himself starts to share some of those feelings. He wonders how many things he'll regret saying or doing by the end of the day at this rate.

A few seconds of awkward silence ensue before Shouto finally breaks it. "We… weren't planning to take things that far." He says before turning his head towards her. "Were we?"

"O-of course not! W-we're still in high school!" She squeaks before burying her face in her hands.

"You heard her." Shouto shrugs. "We don't need anything. Even if we do need it eventually, Yaoyorozu can create it. She definitely knows the molecular structure of plastic-"

"Shouto-san!" She removes her hands from her face to glare at Shouto. Natsuo is starting to feel bad for her. "Please. Stop. Talking."

"Uh- that's… good?" Natsuo feels the heat rising to his face. "Well, bye for real now."


When Natsuo leaves the house, he thinks about heading straight to class. His stomach lets him know that it has other ideas. When he walks near the convenience store, it lets loose a loud growl. He's not going to have that happen in class, so he enters and picks out a bento.

As Natsuo hands the money to the cashier, he spots a familiar figure walking through the sliding doors.

"Natsu!" Fuyumi calls out to him, but it lacks the usual warmth.

"This is just not my day…" Natsuo mutters. "Sis."

She puts her hands on her hips and frowns. "Don't tell me you're cutting class." She says sternly.

"I overslept…" He regrets saying it the moment the words leave his mouth.

"Need I remind you that your sister is a teacher! We had perfect attendance today, meanwhile my own brother can't wake up in time for his late afternoon class! I wouldn't be able to look the other teachers in the eye if they find out about this." Normally, he would roll his eyes whenever she nags, but he doesn't want to risk irking her any more than he already has. "Your class is going to be half over by the time you get there!"

"Sorry, sorry, I get it… I'm leaving now."

"Could you please take your education more seriously? We'll talk when you get back." Fuyumi sighs before walking past him. It looks like she's headed for the soba section. At least that's one good thing to look forward to today. Natsuo does as he's asked and goes to catch his train.


Just before he enters the station, Natsuo opens up his phone and types up a message to Shouto.

[16:00] Natsuo: Hey, heads up. I bumped into Sis on the way to class. She's in a pretty bad mood and should be done with shopping soon. I suggest your girlfriend leaves right now unless you want to introduce her.

[16:00] Shouto: I'll ask her what she wants to do.

[16:02] Shouto: She's gone.

[16:03] Shouto: Thanks.

Natsuo smiles at the last message before looking at the time and then sprints toward his train. At least he did one thing right today.


What happens in Be Blues is: The older brother wakes up late for cram school (he's a Ronin) and catches his younger sister, who's now a first-year manager, making out with one of the main side characters. That side character is a year older than her, a regular starter on the team, and her brother's teammate when they won regionals. He leaves, but comes back to ask the condom question. He gets dropkicked by her for that! Natsuo gets a better fate here
