For Digimon Manga/Game Flash Bingo 337 - character: Masaken
10. Prescription
Masaken knows he doesn't really deserve sympathy, nor does he expect it. He had gone along with the whole 'conquer the world' thing after all, and he can always raise a new Digimon, but that didn't mean that his glasses deserved their destruction.
Oh rest in pieces ye old glasses and frames.
Unfortunately for him, Hikaru is there when he sputters out the lies and apologies for his mother. In his misguided way, he decides to help.
He needs to stop doing that.
"Seriously ma'am, I just stepped on them, honest."
His mother frowns with the strength of Olympic champions in each facial muscle. "And how did you end up stepping on them?"
"We got into a fight." Hikaru has a bad havit of chirping when he knows he's saying something stupid. Like if he sounds happy enough he can get away with it. Bastard.
Masaken feels his mother's stare turn on him. His face flushes a bright, hurt red and he glares at Hikaru.
It takes twenty minutes of exasperated excuses before she gives in to take him to get new ones.
Hikaru lasts not even a minute before he decks him into the nearest table. Surprisingly, his mother doesn't complain.
