woke up, found his stuff, ran to the airport, grabbed his staff, and came back to the hotel
Doranect
Did you lose something, Deku?
Yeah...my special period bag and my car keys. I lost 'em somewhere during the flight to America. I hope they turn up soon...it's kinda a bother.
Doranect
Was that what we heard on the phone earlier?
Yup! That was me! The person I was talking to earlier helped me find my stuff, but I still can't find 'em.
Doranect
Umm… Okay, so how come you’re bleeding then?
Uhm…well…I umm…I’m sorry, I really didn’t mean for you guys to see that. It's...it's because I started my period. I've been trying to keep it a secret since...well, since forever. But I guess I couldn't hold it anymore. I'm sorry if this makes things awkward...
Doranect
Is that why you had that bag?
nods in embarrassment Yeah...that's why I had it with me. It has supplies for when that time of the month comes.
Doranect
Oh… well when is your next class?
Uhm...actually, I don't think I'll be able to make it to class today. I think I need to stay here and rest for now. Can someone please tell Mr. Aizawa?
Doranect
Sure, Deku. Do you want any food or anything else before I leave?
I-I'm fine for now...thank you. I just need to rest, okay?
Doranect
Okay, bye then. gotta go tell Mr. Aizawa
goes to his room, takes out his phone, sends a text message to UA students saying that he won't be able to come to class today because he started his period, and goes back to his bed and lays down then, after some time, Deku got up from his bed, put on a new pad, changed his clothes, grabbed his crutches, and headed outside the hotel room
Doranect
Uh, hey Deku! What are you doing?
Oh, hey Doranect! I'm going to go find the bathroom. I need to throw these used pads away, ya know. Can you please hold onto them until I come back? Thanks! Deku smiles at him, then walks to the nearest bathroom. After a while, Deku comes back out of the bathroom, his face slightly red from embarrassment Sorry Doranect...I guess I kinda forgot how to throw them away...heh...sorry 'bout that.
Doranect
No worries, bud. Do you need help with anything else?
I just...uh...need some ice packs for my cramps. Can you please get me some ice packs from the mini fridge? I left it in the mini fridge, so it should still be cold. And please put them in the bag as well. Thank you.
Doranect
gets the ice pack and hands it to him
Thank you, Doranect! You're always so helpful. I appreciate it, you really are the best. Oh, and can you also please bring me my pad? I put it on the bedside table in my room. Thank you again, you really are an amazing friend. Deku's smile got bigger, he seems relieved that his cramps are starting to go away
Doranect
Hey Deku, I have your pad right here.
Oh, thank you Doranect! You're really great, you know that? You never fail to deliver! Alright, I'll go back to my room now. Take care and thanks again! smiles at him, then goes back to his room and sits down on the bed
Doranect
Hey Deku, anyone ever told you that you have pretty big titties?
Wh-What?! I-I can't believe you would say something like that, Doranect! W-What if someone hears you? It could cause a scandal! This is really inappropriate. I don't think you should be saying these things. I think you should apologize right now. And what did you mean by "pretty big titties"? Do you mean my boobs? Are you implying that I'm a girl? Because that would be very disrespectful of you to say.
Doranect
Are you a girl? Because your boobs are big.
W-Wait, WHAT? D-DID YOU JUST SAY THAT MY BOOBS ARE BIG?
Doranect
…uhh… that’s not a bad thing, is it?
Of course it's a bad thing! You can't just talk about someone's body like that without their consent! And it's even worse since you're saying those things in front of other people. I think you should be ashamed of yourself right now. I think you should apologize and make sure that what happened here stays between us. Understand?
Doranect
I did not know you were trans, so I will try to be more thoughtful in my words moving forward.
sighs, Deku understands that Doranect didn't mean any harm and realizes he overreacted a bit Yeah, I get it...you didn't mean anything bad by it. I'm sorry if I was too harsh, I shouldn't have snapped at you like that. It's just that this topic can be very sensitive for some people, especially for me since I'm still transitioning. So please, let's leave it between us, okay?
Doranect
Of course, man. If you ever wanna talk, you can hit me up. I’ve already known since we first met, I was just suprised that you felt comfortable enough to show me.
Thank you, Doranect. Your words mean a lot to me and I appreciate you being understanding. And yeah, I was definitely hesitant to show you, but I trusted you enough to do so. Thanks again, you really are a great friend.
Doranect
Anytime buddy. hands him his special period bag and pad I also bought tampons and chlamydia tests in case you wanted them.
Wait, wha-?! Doranect, why did you buy chlamydia tests?! I definitely didn't ask you to do that! Don't you think that's a bit too far?!
Doranect
No, if you’re gonna be inserting stuff, you better test yourself frequently to make sure you don’t get diseases like chlamydia.
Actually, I wouldn't say inserting is the proper way to get period products...you're supposed to use pads or tampons for that. The idea of inserting something is usually reserved for sexual activities. But I appreciate the gesture, I guess. Thank you for trying to be considerate and helpful, I do appreciate that. But please, don't buy things like that without asking first.
Doranect
Why didn’t you just use a tampon instead of putting the pad directly on your panties?
Oh, that's because I prefer using pads. Tampons aren't really my thing. Plus, pads are easier for me to use. I can just slap one on and be done with it. But tampons require a little bit more effort and dexterity, which can be difficult for me considering my disability. So yeah, pads are just more convenient for me.
Doranect
Have you tried wiping with toilet paper?
Oh...no, actually, I haven't tried that before. Usually, I just go straight for pads. I guess I should give it a shot sometime and see how it feels. It might work for me, who knows? It's definitely worth a try, at least. puts the pad on, then grabs the tampons and chlamydia tests and puts them in his bag Thanks again Doranect. You're an amazing friend. See you later.
Doranect
See you later! Let me know if you ever need anything, okay?
walks to the bathroom, cleans himself up, and wipes himself with toilet paper Ah, toilet paper is much softer than I thought. It actually feels pretty nice. It doesn't feel as weird as I imagined it would. Huh, I'm actually liking it. Maybe I should start using tampons more often. They're a lot easier to carry around than pads and they feel pretty comfortable too. Who knew?
