So cryptidresearcher had asked for a chapter on Hiro and Tadashi playing Five Nights at Freddie's and I'm really sorry but I actually haven't played it so I wouldn't know how to write that I'm really sorry, it's not that I don't want to, I just can't. If you have another request, I'd be happy to try and write that .
Martyn asked for, and I quote "How about the next chapter involves Tadashi gaining weight, to the point where Hiro sees his brother's belly as a pillow? Please can that happen? I'll be your best friend." And I actually laughed at that request so I'll do that along with something a guest left about Tadashi giving Hiro the silent treatment.
P.S Martyn, you don't have to be my best friend XD, I'll do it for free.
Ages
Hiro: 12
Tadashi: 18
"Pizza again?" Hiro whined lightly, getting scolded by Aunt Cass in the process for complaining.
"Be thankful that we have something to eat at all." Tadashi chastises. "Aunt Cass has been busy and we're lucky to have money to buy pizza." He adds, helping himself to his fourth slice.
"But it's the same boring flavor. And how come you always get to pick?" Hiro asks, voice drenched in accusation.
"Because I'm actually home on time instead of bot-
"OK, right, got it." Hiro interrupts, not wanting to be exploited. The last time Hiro got caught bot fighting…well, let's just say that a year seems longer without summer.
"Don't sass your brother." Aunt Cass says, leaving both to assume she was talking about the other.
"You might want to lay off all the pizza though big brother. Wouldn't want you getting pudgy." Hiro teased with a laugh. Aunt Cass couldn't help but let a snicker escape as well and Tadashi's ears pinkened a bit before mumbling something about being a growing boy.
-Page Break-
Later that night, Hiro woke up to something feeling off. Blinking his eyes open, he whispered out for his brother, only to receive silence as an answer. That was odd. Tadashi was a lighter sleeper which could only mean that he was the one causing the unsettling feeling. Pushing his covers away, Hiro hopped over to Tadashi's bed to see it empty.
The younger boy padded down the stairs at frequencies not even bats could've heard and saw Tadashi in the kitchen...eating more pizza?!
"Tadashi what the heck?!" Hiro whisper shouted, shocking the older boy into dropping his slice on the floor. He looked like a deer caught in headlights and his face was being illuminated as such by the fridge.
"Hiro, you should be in bed." Tadashi went with, picking up the pizza from the floor and tossing it in the bin.
"So should you! And you're eating pizza? At what, 4 in the morning?" Hiro asked, more amused than anything.
"What's wrong with that?" Tadashi quizzed, now looking annoyed. Hiro let his gaze wander to his older brother's body and noticed him looking a bit more…rotund in certain areas. He held back a snicker from his remark at dinner because-
"Tadashi, you either need to eat less or get in shape."
"Round is a shape." He defended petulantly.
"Tadashi, god. What? Oh never mind. I'm going to bed." Hiro said, falling on the floor in the process.
"You okay there Wii fitness trainer?" Tadashi asks, helping him up.
"Mm, yeah. Just too tried to walk." Hiro responded belatedly.
"Well I'm not carrying you, so don't even try with me." Tadashi warned.
"Like your fat ass could lift anything at the moment." Hiro countered weakly, falling into sleep whilst standing.
"Honestly, I'm kind of tired too so night." Tadashi says, laying down on the kitchen floor. Hiro rolled his lazy, slowly closing shut eyes.
Regardless, he laid down next to Tadashi, but wasn't finding the floor comfortable. Brain lighting up in the familiar feeling of an idea forming, he laid his head on Tadashi's tummy and hummed in bliss.
"Maybe we should order pizza more often."
"Shut up knucklehead."
"Tadashi?" Hiro asked for the umpteenth time that day. It didn't take a genius (even though Hiro was) to figure out that Tadashi was ignoring him.
"Tadashi, why aren't you speaking to your brother?" Aunt Cass sighed, sipping on her tea.
"He won't stop making fat jokes Aunt Cass." Tadashi responded calmly.
"Aw, are they bothering you Tadashi? Tell me, which one of your chins did I offend?" Hiro asked, doubling over in laugher as Aunt Cass once again tried to refrain from doing so. Tadashi huffed and-
"Until Hiro apologizes, I shall not speak to him." He announces, slamming his book shut and getting up.
"Oh no! Aunt Cass, there's an earthquake-oh wait, no sorry. Tadashi was just standing up." Hiro laughed. Aunt Cass gave him a disapproving look when seeing Tadashi wasn't going to stand for Hiro's teasing any longer.
"Hey Tadashi, can you come with me to the store? Aunt Cass needs some ingredients. I guess she's cooking so you don't have to worry about being a pudge-face anymore." Hiro says. Tadashi doesn't answer, making Hiro let out a puff of breath in irritation.
"Fine. Be that way. I'll go myself." Hiro declares, tsking on the way out for his older brother's 'childish' actions.
When Hiro got back, thankfully in one piece, he noticed Tadashi rush downstairs.
"What's got your boxers in a knot?" Hiro asked, placing bags on the counter. Silence, just as Hiro expected ensued.
"Look, if you're going to stand there collecting dust, be my guest, but I'd rather-
"Shut up will you?" Tadashi finally snapped. Hiro blinked once. Then twice and thrice. He would've a fourth time were it not for Tadashi looking…forlorn?
"Tadashi-
"I may play things off with you Hiro and act like your words don't bother me like they do to pretty much everyone else, but that doesn't mean I don't have feelings." Tadashi spits, racing back up to their room. And yeah, Hiro knew he fucked up.
-Page Break-
"Pizza for dinner? But I th-
"Be thankful for what you have Tadashi." Hiro scolds mockingly. Tadashi glanced at him wearily, wondering if there was a point to this, what it would be.
"I'm thankful I have an older brother who can teach me when I'm going too far." Hiro said, answering Tadashi's silent question with a grin.
"Well, you are what you eat and pizza is cheesy."
"Quiet you!"
