Izuku opens his eyes the next morning in Rumi's bed with Rumi sleeping right on top of him hugging him tightly, her head buried in the crook of his neck. Izuku was currently shirtless as Rumi preferred the skin contact and warmth when they slept together. Slowly sitting up, he repositioned her so he could sit up a bit while not disturbing her sleep and wrapped his arms around her.
After half an hour, Rumi's ears fluttered and brushed against his cheek as she woke up and moved her head slightly to see Izuku looking down at her with a slightly worried expression.
"Feeling better?"
Instead of answering she pulls Izuku into a deep kiss. After a few seconds, they separate and she lays her head on his chest.
"Yeah, thanks for this."
"What kind of boyfriend would I be if I didn't do something like this?"
Rumi blushes pointing her gaze down. She saw that Izuku was shirtless only wearing shorts while she was wearing an oversized white shirt and spats. Feeling her chest against his with only the fabric of the shirt made her blush harder as a small sliver of smoke emanated from her head. The door to the bedroom suddenly opened making the two look at who had invaded their space. Ryukyu slowly poked her head into the room carefully.
"Rumi I saw what happened yesterday. Are you o-"
Finally seeing the scene, a bright blush appeared on her face as she retreated back behind the quickly closed door and considering the two's current state of dress her reaction was reasonable. A small scream was heard outside of the door as Ryukyu shrieked out of embarrassment.
After a few minutes, the three were now sitting on the couch. Izuku and Rumi sat like they were caught by their parents and Ryukyu sat at the other side not knowing what to say. Rumi gave Ryukyu annoyed a side eye which Ryukyu responded with a guilty look. Izuku breaks the awkward silence.
"So... what did you mean you saw what happened yesterday?"
"I think it's best if you just watched."
Ryukyu picked up the remote and turned on the TV.
"-ideo of Invincible was released yesterday of him dispatching a villain in a disturbing manner. We will be broadcasting a censored edition though we recommend parents and the faint of heart to change the channel before the video begins. Some of us in the studio will be doing the same."
After a few seconds, the video was shown. The person recording was in a building recording from a window. The villain could be heard speaking somewhat clearly considering the distance. Invincible showed up and dealt with the villain before picking up Miruko leaving a clone and warping away.
"In the footage, it could be clearly heard that the villain now identified as Chiyo Hanamura a member of the splintered Creature Rejection Clan with the quirk Arogel with an obsession and delusion of the Hero Invincible believing that she should be the hero's lover and orchestrated an assault on the heroine Miruko to, in her words remove the impure. This action had enraged Invincible as he had deformed the stalker."
"Many in the public have voiced the opinion that the villain dealt with justly considering the circumstances but there are those who disagree with the severity of the punishment dealt."
A montage of people who were near the incident was shown as they stated what they thought. Most just thought it was justified what he did to the villain while on the other side thought it was inhumane to leave the villain in that state. Ryukyu feeling like they had gotten the gist of it turned the tv off.
"That villain said some pretty horrible things about you. I wanted to know how you were doing."
"I'm doing better now Ryuko. Someone like that wouldn't get in my head."
With a motherly look, Ryuko responds.
"Rumi if it didn't hurt you wouldn't have to be teleported away."
Rumi not knowing what to say stayed silent.
"At least you had someone to get you out before you got revealed as a crybaby."
"As if I would get caught like that."
The two women continued their light banter as Izuku discreetly slipped away to make breakfast for all of them.
---
With the whole thing behind them, they got back to what they usually do though Ryuko insisted that she and Rumi patroling without him. Knowing that they wanted to speak privately Izuku hugs Rumi goodbye before warping away.
Appearing above the city, Izuku looked around to see if there were any signs of the Inhuman Supremacy Group members around. Not seeing anything he opened the Hero alert system on his phone and looked for recent protests or incidents.
Previously they were active around the Sendai region so Invincible began his patrol there. Now above the area, he sees a large city and using Quirk Sight he sees a large contingent of mutation quirk users all across the city. There was a small gathering of them in a square. The leader of the gathering was a man with a bear head and arms with sharp claws.
Invincible landed on a street nearby greeted some people on their way to work and walked to the gathering. A few of the members spotted him and informed others in the crowd. The knowledge of his presence reached the leader who quickly spotted Invincible and walked up to him.
"Invincible may I ask why you are here?"
"I've been hearing on the grapevine that a group of mutant protesters have been destroying public property. I'm here to make sure that doesn't happen. You wouldn't be familiar with this group responsible would you?"
The Bearman is compelled.
"I do know who they are with."
Fact
The other mutants in the gathering started shifting, looking for an opportunity to slip away.
"Would you kindly tell me the name of this group?"
"... It's the Inhuman Supremacy Group."
"Ah of course it's them. And you are part of that group, yes?"
"Yes."
"Bring them here."
"What?"
"Bring their leaders here. I'm sure you remember what happened yesterday. After all, you were going to use it to further your cause."
The Bearman nervously took his phone out and called some people. It only took a few seconds of quiet whispering before he hung up. He looked toward Invincible who still had a calm smile on his face.
"T-they are on their way."
"What are you so nervous about I just wanted to have a chat is all. You can go about your protest while they're arriving."
Invincible warps to the top of a nearby building and sits at its edge overlooking the gathering. The crowd tried to continue their preparation but the extra scrutiny from above was quite distracting.
