You absolutely are.

Who, Tadashi? [ But he seems like such a goody two-shoes. Also, is nobody watching these boys? Good lord. ]

[everydayhero]

Yes, Tadashi. It was right after we got home from jail, too.

[ino]

[ Leans in, looking suspicious ]

He doesn't seem like the type.

[everydayhero]

I swear, he did. Told me if I was gonna go anyway, he was gonna take me.

[ino]

[ ... Well, that seems more acceptable. But -- ]

You say it like you were going alone to these things before.

[everydayhero]

... Hey, he knew I was going.

[ino]

Hiro ...

[ Covers her face with her hands. CHILD. YOU WORRY HER SO MUCH. ]

[everydayhero]

[just. this face.]

[ino]

Just ... please don't do that type of stuff here, at least not alone. You never know what type of person you'll piss off.

[everydayhero]

Hey, I've... barely done anything illegal here by myself.

[rubbing the back of his neck, oh look, more physical habits he picked up from tadashi]

I'm smart enough to bring you or Tim along.

[ino]

[ Well, at least there's that. It does seem to get rid of a lot of her concern ]

That's all I ask.

[everydayhero]

[His grin goes from "i'm cute right??" to incredibly fond pretty quickly.]

I know it's... kind of awkward, but. Thanks, Ino. For everything. I don't think I'd be making it through this in one piece without having people like you on my side.

[ino]

[ A little laugh ]

I don't know, with that brain of yours, you'd probably figure it out.

[ She moves to stand, ruffling his hair again ]

In any case, keep working on the meditating. I know it'll be a bit difficult, but I think you can do it.

[everydayhero]

I know I can.

[He allows her to ruffle his hair so much, it's an honor, Ino, be sure.]
