AN: Wow! Thanks again for the follows, faves and reviews!

Its a June update!

Short real life updates: I graduated earlier this month! Now I'm off to college in August, but I will most likely finish this story before then so you guys don't have to worry about any long hiatuses..again.

Random behind the scenes fact: Genos was originally not supposed to know about Tamaki until after the fact in earlier drafts.

That's about it for personal stuff, now onto the reviews.

mychakk: Here it is! Hope you enjoy!

Guest: That feel when she's envious of (technically) herself.

Guest(2):No prob man.

Hektols: That feel when this is a great idea but last year's me established that the Saitama vs. Fubuki didn't happen ;u;

Guest (3): Of course! We've only got 4 more till the end!

Lol: Here ya go :D

Lord Anubis Judge of the dead: I'm glad you are :).


"Oh, hey Tatsumaki. Come on in." Saitama stood at the doorway, leaning against the door. She walked inside, looking around. She was wearing a yellow short sleeve with a light blue skirt, meanwhile he was wearing a dark blue hoodie and gray shorts. "I told her to dress casual, didn't I?" He thought to himself as she stood still in the hallway.

Her eyes briefly met his, a small smile appearing on her face as she looked away. "Genos will be here in about 20 minutes with food." He stated, getting them drinks from the kitchen. She continued being rigid, even as he put her glass on the table. "So, do you wanna play video games while we wait? You have played video games before, right?"

He playfully arched an eyebrow at her. "Of course I have-" Tatsumaki thought back to her first visit. Her not knowing how the control worked ended up with his hands over hers. " haven't." She crossed her arms and huffed.

He went to set up the system, motioning for Tatsumaki to join him.

She walked and silently sat down next to him, a light blush on her cheeks.

Grabbing her controller eagerly, she waited for Saitama's instruction.

He held up his controller, facing it towards her. "So, to attack, you use these," he pointed at the buttons, "and you move your character with this." He pointed at the joystick. He put the controller back on his lap.

She internally groaned at his actions, but smirked.

"I'm gonna kick your ass."

Positioning herself, she continued to grin deviously as the first round started on screen.

"Master! I brought supper."

"Thanks for killing the mood, cyborg." She mumbled.

Genos began setting up the table, Saitama pausing the game.

"Ready to eat, Tatsumaki?" "Sure."


"So, what's the deal?" Saitama asked.

"Huh?"

"What he means is the reason for your visit, the 'improving relations'?"

"Oh." She pondered about her answer and replied, "The association figured that since I'm one of the most beloved heroes and you're the most hated, us being paired up would help your image, as well as take down higher level monsters faster."

"I see."

Genos raised an eyebrow , but did not say anything else.

"So, is it a long term thing?" Saitama asked, messing with his hoodie string.

"Only if you want it to be." She said.

He shrugged. "Sure. You did once mention to me that you wanted to fight, so we could look at each others fighting styles."

"You remembered that?" He nodded.

The three then ate their food in comfortable silence.

"So, I'll see you next week?" Tatsumaki asked, already out of the apartment.

"Sure?" He shrugged, waving at her before closing the door.

"So much for romance." She sighed before heading off to her apartment.

"Master, are you alright?" Genos inquired, for the bewildered look present on Saitama's face.

"Yeah, but I don't know man. I feel like I've done most of this before."


"The 'date' wasn't bad," She thought to herself. "But what can I expect, when we're practically acquaintances?" She looked at her phone wallpaper, a small smile flickering across her face.

"At least Tamaki and him are friends."

There was a knock at Saitama's door the next morning. "Tam? It's a little early, but come on in-" "Get dressed, I'm taking you to the park." He rubbed his tired eyes, seeing bright green hair. "Tatsumaki? Didn't you say next week?" "Yesterday was Saturday, today is Sunday. It is next week." Saitama squinted his eyes at her explanation, but sighed. "I'll get dressed."

The two headed to the park, as the sun was barely rising over the horizon. "So, why are we out at," He checked his phone, "7:30?" "Harsh to say, but we can't be fully seen together just yet. One step at a time to improve your reputation." "But-"She halted him with her hand. "Yes, I know Mister 'I became a hero for fun',but those are orders." "When did I tell you-never mind."

She halted their walking as they arrived at a shady area in the park. She motioned for him to alongside her. "To improve your reputation among citizens, you must befriend one."

"I do have a friend. Her name is Tamaki. She perked up a bit at his mention. "She's fun, kind, we make each other laugh, we manage to make time for each oth-" She waved her hands in front of him. "Yeah, yeah, I get it." Avoiding his eyes, her face was tinted a light pink. "Sheesh, what do you like her?"

Saitama blinked. '"A little. So, what do we have to do now?" Tatsumaki groaned, pinching the bridge of her nose. "Now, we have to um.." She paused, trying to remember the "orders" HQ gave her.

"We just have to get to know each other's fighting styles first, I suppose."

"Okay, but uh..We might have to go to the ruins if we wanna practice." "Oh, right. Okay, lead the way." She said as she got off of the grass, Saitama following in suit. He started walking ahead of her, motioning for her to follow.

They stood at the ruins, Saitama waiting for instruction.

"Just use your weakest attack on what's left of the cliff over there and I'll compare the damage for that and my own weaker attack." Saitama nodded and proceeded to use his standard punch on the cliff.

Simultaneously, she used a light attack on an area farther away from him.

She took pictures of the two areas with her cell and rubbed her palms together.

"Okay, now we should try the attacks on each other." Saitama was in mild shock at her statement. "Oh,never mind, you're joking." He said, chuckling lightly.

"Yes, since admittedly you pack quite a punch. Guess we're done for today, unless you want to eat some breakfast."

"Sure."

"This is weekly, right?"

"Yes, why?"

"Just wondering."

Tatsumaki picked at her pancakes, theorizing about another possible reason.

"Genos texted me. He said there's a sale at 10. And its 9:30 now."

He stood up from the table, just as Tatsumaki finished paying their food.

"Thanks for breakfast. See you soon."

He waved as he walked out of the restaurant.

She walked out soon after and flew back to her home.

"Today was better.."

"So, how was it?" " Weird. She didn't call me baldy."

" 'A little', huh? Guess I know what we're doing next week." She quickly dialed Genos.

"Tatsumaki, why are y-" "Just put me on speaker." Genos turned off his hearing. "Hey baldy! Mark the day! We're going on a date!" She hung up before either of the men could give her a response.

"..Maybe I should call back to say it was a joke." She checked the time on her phone. "I can do it tomorrow." She tossed it on her nightstand and shut off the light.


"Who was that on the phone?" Saitama asked, sitting in front of the TV.

"A fangirl."


T: Hey Sai! I'm going to be out of town for the next two weeks. Hopefully we can hang out when we come back.

S: Sounds good, have fun.


Double length next time!
