He caught a glimpse of Deku's green hair as he pressed himself against the side of the boat, just barely out of view in a precarious hiding place and absolutely panicking-
“…I must be hallucinating.. Phew-, alright.. I “really” need to get to the front of the ship. These people are driving me crazy..-“
Deku could hear his light steps fade away, seems like he was heading to the front.. like he said-
"...."
He slid back into the water, going to swim over to the front-
Wheeeeen he bumped into Uraraka, who was practically having a panic attack about deku being literally OUT of the water for so long- TwT
"HF-U-Uraraka!" His cheeks were bright pink-
“D-Deku! What took you s-so long!? Y-You had me scared to-!… Deku? Are, you okay? Your blushing-?”
"I-I...I um-"
“…Deku.. you didn’t-, drink anything, did you-?”
OH GOD—, SHE THOUGHT HE WAS TIPSY-!
"What-N-NO! No i-i-it's not like that!-"
“O-Oh thank god-! I-I really thought you got INTO something-!!”
