[For what it's worth, Rinku's Zubat doesn't like his blood - but it's the nicotine moreso than the mayonnaise that makes it taste bad.

Despite his best efforts, he only returns after a couple of hours. With the state the city is in, many shops are closed for fear of looting, robbery or other violence, and procuring just about anything has become a challenge. Even so, he was successful on all fronts! If Katsuki lit up the flowers in their home already, it'll be helpful, but otherwise, he has regenerated enough mana to summon a few floating green flames.]

Alright, here we are. First things first--

[He hands Katsuki a blood bag - not the kind that's used in hospitals, but a literal blood-filled plastic bag (at least of the non-crinkly, more smooth and durable kind) with a straw poking out.]

They ran out of the proper bags at the butcher's, so drink this right now, okay? It's cold, so if you want it warm, heat it up first.

[He stows the rest, filled into something like juice boxes, away in the fridge. Between Katsuki's blood and his mayonnaise, there's hardly any space left for anything else...]

We'll get you your own fridge, too.

[Katsuki hadn't lit any of the flowers yet, because he was waiting for Hijikata to come back with the new ones before doing so. May as well use the spell just the one time, rather than having to use it a second for the new flowers brought in. He hasn't had the chance to use it yet, either, because he's a little embarrassed about how the spell works.

However, he'll give it a shot now that Hijikata is here. Taking the pendant into the palm of his hand, and whispering:]

"Please light the way."

[As Shoto had explained, every petal within a 100 foot radius lights up. Which brings such bright, and pretty colours into the home. The lights were just bright enough to bounce off the walls and furniture closest to them.

And now that it's a bit easier to see, (well it's still pretty easy for him in the dark), he takes the bag from Hijikata with a hungry look in his eyes. It's weird.. the smell was both disgusting to the human half of Katsuki, making his stomach churn but at the same time it made his stomach growl, too. And his human brain telling him that drinking this would be gross was extremely over powered by the hungry vampire that just wants to dig in as soon as possible.

But he won't drink it cold. Luckily, his Quirk works in two parts. The sweat that explodes, which is the main and most important part. But there's also the hand that warms up like a stovetop burner, and he uses that part of his Quirk to slowly heat the bag up. Keeping the temperature warm rather than hot, so he doesn't melt the plastic.]

...yeah, we'll need the extra space. Especially if I'm movin' in. 'Cuz Todoroki's cooking is shit, and you need a REAL chef in the kitchen!

[Katsuki might not get nutritional value from normal food anymore, but he'll still cook goddammit!!]

No more noodles! I'm making you both restaurant quality meals from now on!

[mayoninofukucho]

[Seeing the old familiar spell activate the flowers' glow is comforting to Hijikata, and in the current situation, he'll take any comfort he can get. Hearing Katsuki's complaint about the food they've been eating, though, puts a surprised look on his face.]

Hm? What's wrong with Shoto-kun's cooking?

[If Katsuki already had doubts about Hijikata's tastes, this surely cements it. Having realised neither how much Shoto's been struggling to figure out the art of cooking nor the questionable quality of most of his efforts, he's apparently found no cause for complaints this entire time.]

[boombam]

[Katsuki raises an eyebrow when he's asked what's wrong with Shoto's cooking. Isn't it obvious??]

You're so used to it you can't see that he doesn't use enough spices? Or that he cuts the vegetables all wonky? Or undercooks meat sometimes?

[Shoto does do his absolute best, and it's not like it's inedible. But Katsuki feels like they deserve so, so much better! Especially Shoto himself!]

I mean, he's way better than he was back home. Back then, he didn't even know how to cut chives so he's improved a lot. But I still think the both of you could use someone more experienced in the kitchen.

[mayoninofukucho]

[Confusion is written all over Hijikata's face, as if he still doesn't see the problem.]

Well, Katsuki-kun, if you enjoy cooking, far be it from us to stop you. Now, let's eat, shall we?

[Katsuki has his blood, and Hijikata will heat up whatever is still struggling for space in between their personal provisions in the fridge. While they eat at the flower-lit table, he'll call Shoto and put him on loudspeaker to make sure he isn't overexerting himself out there.]
