Summary:

"(...is a very surprised mother-in-law.)

"'So, I'm dating Deku,"' says Kacchan.

The cutlery stops clinking. Izuku sighs into his spaghetti. They'd talked about this. Izuku had talked about it, anyway, although come to think of it he really should have known Kacchan wouldn't listen to a word. Dropping bombs even in the middle of a nice family dinner. How very on-brand. "'I thought we agreed to break the news gently."'

Mitsuki, to her credit, takes the revelation in stride. "'We're very happy for you, Izuku! You're a sweet kid and you'll be a good influence on my stupid son."'

"'Thank you, Aunty."' Inko still hasn't said anything. Hesitantly, Izuku reaches across the table to brush his fingers against hers. "'Mom? You're being awfully quiet."'

Mitsuki nudges her. "'I'm sure she's just surprised. Really, Masaru and I should be thanking you, Izuku. You're far too good for our son."'

Inko smiles very sweetly and takes a sip of her wine. "'You know what, Mitsuki? I agree."'"
