Arriving at the Cafe he's meeting Burnin at, Stygian takes a seat at his favorite table and tries to relax after his shit day at work. Honestly, this is why he'd never wanted to become a teacher. He knew damn well he'd been troublesome as a teen too, but this was pushing it. A lot.

Taking a sip from his drink, Stygian feel his muscles slowly start to relax as the hot beverage works its magic on him. He'd order a nice chamomile tea instead of coffee so he could try and calm down a bit after nearly losing his shit earlier.

Feeling his phone go off in his pocket, Stygian texts it to see a message from Burnin.

2hot4u: Hey, I'm here, where u at?

Smirking, he thumbs out his reply.

JackFrost: Inside, I already have a table

Burnin send a quick thumbs up before heading into the cafe interior. From his table Stygian has a perfect view of the front of the shop, so he can see Burnin's adorable confused face as she tries to spot him.

2hot4u: I just realized I have no idea what you look like out of costume :(

JackFrost: Lol, sounds like a you problem

2hot4u: Bitch, I will barbecue you

JackFrost: 3

Stygian had just sent a selfie of himself posing with her in frame. He watches as she takes in the details of the photo for a second before quickly locking eyes with him. He's staring at her with a smug grin, gesturing to the seat across from him.

Rolling her eyes, she walks over and takes a seat, "So, this is what the elusive Stygian looks like.", she takes a moment to look him over, "Not bad, but why the hell are you wearing sunglasses inside?"

In place of an answer, Stygian simply removes the glasses and meets her gaze.

Burnin's jaw drops as she mutters to herself, "Fuck, that's hot."

Stygian snorts, "Well, that's certainly a first. Most people are creeped the hell out."

Burnin raises an eyebrow, "Really? They're dumb as shit then, you look cool as hell!"

Stygian chuckles, "Alright, enough with the praise. I'm assuming you didn't come here just to get some eye candy."

Burnin smirks, "What if I did? What if I had guessed you were secretly smokin hot all along and wanted to get a look?"

"Then you could've asked for a campus pass, like all UA alumni are entitled to, and came to find me at work. I don't wear my uniform at the school, only on patrols or special occasions."

Burnin nods, typing what he'd said into her phone's notes app, "I see. Got any other ways I can find you, hot stuff?"

Stygian gives her a skeptical look, "Okay, did you really go through the effort to set this up just to flirt with me?"

Burnin looks him dead in the eye, "Yeah, that's kinda how dates work."

Stygian nearly chokes on his drink. Shit, this was a date? He wasn't ready for that kind of thing! He'd just worn one of his casual outfits (a t-shirt for the American band Set it Off under a black and white flannel with some comfortable pants) and he was pretty certain his hair wasn't looking the best at the moment.

Burnin snorts, "Oh, were you not aware this was a date? I mean, a hot girl asked you to meet her at a cafe, what were you expecting?"

Stygian sputters, "I- Well-" he facepalms and sighs, "No. No I didn't know this was a date. I wish I wasn't so dense about it so I could've made sure I looked more presentable, but too late for that now."

Burnin raises an incredulous eyebrow. More presentable? What the fuck is this guy saying, he looks damn-near perfect! The dark and mysterious eyes, the simple but classic outfit, the way his flannel showed a hint at some of the scars he'd earned over the years as a testament to how hard he worked, the slightly tousled hair with his ponytail swept over his shoulder and the colors perfectly matching his stunning eyes! He was fucking gorgeous!

Honestly, with both that, his rep as a Hero, and his genuine personality as a troll like her, Burnin was incredibly tempted to ask him to fuck her tonight. Tempted. She wasn't going to do that. She could tell he'd probably want to take this slower than her mind was racing, so she needed to be patient and wait for him to be ready.

Burning rolls her eyes at him, "Dude. You look like you'd put a runway model to shame."

Stygian decides to brush off her comment, "Whatever. I'm just a bit out of my depth here. I've never really been on a date before."

Holy shit. Stygian was already basically a legend in the Hero community, debuting independently from the get-go and absolutely crushing it at the job. Despite how young he was, there was plenty of talk about how he was the closest to touching Eraserhead's spot as the number one in the Underground scene. And here he was, nervous because he'd never gone on a date before. She needed to bring her fucking Plus Ultra A game to make sure she was the only person he ever dated, because there was no way she'd be finding someone like him anytime soon.

A fierce grin crosses Burnin's face, "Well, guess I'll have to show you the ropes then! Trust me, when I'm through with you, you'll be an expert!"

Stygian chuckles, "Yeah, at dating you. No way you'd teach me anything else with the way you've been talking today, Burnin."

She scowls, he was still using her Hero name, "Kamiji. My name is Moe Kamiji. We can work our way up to first names later, but don't use my Hero name outside of work. It feels wrong."

The coffee she had ordered arrives and she takes a sip, "Well then. I hope you're ready, because this date is really about to get started! And there's no emergency off button here!"

Stygian smirks, "Bring it on."

"You asked for it! Oh! Since I told you my name, it's only fair you tell me yours!"

Stygian lets out a wry chuckle, "Sorry, no can do sweetheart. That info is classified. Though maybe if this date goes well, we can take this far enough for me to really tell you."

Moe pouts, one of her most effective tools for getting what she wants, "Jerk! That's not fair!"

Stygian shrugs, "All's fair in love and war, darling."

He winks.

The fucker has the audacity to wink at her, all seductive like!

Burnin feels her competitive smirk slip onto her face, it's fucking on!

A/N: So, the ship is on a date. How will it go? Find out next time, whenever the fuck that is. If you're curious as to why Stygian went from nervous to flirt so quickly, he's an Underground Hero with a Quirk not suited to his body. He has to adapt quickly or die.
