Happy Anniversary!!
Today’s post is a little different. There will be a chapter update coming soon, I’m working on it but running a bit behind as always.
I would like to take the time to thank all of you for your support and encouragement over this past year. It really keeps my motivation up and my inspiration flowing. This fic was supposed to be and one-shot and look how far we have come. I truly enjoy writing this fic and look forward to more crazy alter adventures from here on out.
Here’s an excerpt from the coming chapter:
Hitoshi and Izuku were sitting on the couch in the family room playing Genshin on their lap tops when Naomasa walked in.
He was carrying a big red 18-gallon bin with a dark green lid. Across one side was a label that read 'Xmas'.
"What's in the bin Papa?" Hitoshi asks, not even looking up from his game.
"This, Hitoshi, is my Christmas collection." Naomasa answers cheerfully, "Well, some of it anyway."
Shouta can be heard groaning loudly in the dining room, followed by a resounding thunk that is probably his forehead meeting the table.
Izuku and Hitoshi glance over in his direction in concern.
Naomasa chuckles, "Sho isn't overly fond of my holiday antics."
"I resigned myself to a festive fate after we moved in together." Shouta deadpans while entering the family room. "Do I need to get the tree down from the high shelf in the laundry room?" he then asks from his place beside Naomasa.
His husband nods, "That would be appreciated. Thanks love." He answers, pecking him on the cheek.
Shouta merely hums in affirmation as he makes his way to the room where the washer and dryer are in. Said room also doubles as a storage space.
From what Hitoshi remembers, the only box that resembles one for a Christmas tree is a long bin that's on a shelf just below the ceiling.
"Doesn't he need a ladder?" Hitoshi asks.
Naomasa shakes his head, "Do you really think Shouta would resort to a ladder given his skill sets?" he says with a smile.
In response, Hitoshi and Izuku quickly get up and rush over to the laundry room. They arrive in time to find Shouta hanging off of the top shelf while crouched on a lower one and gradually maneuvering the bin Hitoshi had been thinking of off of the shelf.
"Don't worry, I made sure the shelves could hold his additional weight when we bought them." Naomasa assures, appearing behind them, "He used to do this in his own apartment as well. And I know those shelves were not meant to support him."
The Christmas tree bin finally slides off the top shelf and into Shouta's grasp. He then smoothly drops from the height, landing in a slight crouch.
He blinks upon noticing them all standing there watching him, then raises an eyebrow.
"I told them you don't believe in using ladders." Naomasa explains, "So they got curious."
Shouta huffs, "It's not a matter of belief. I simply don't need one." He grumbles.
Naomasa smiles fondly, "What ever you say love."
