you tell toji you wanna have a kid and he buys you a potted plant.

“this… isn’t what i meant,” you say, looking at the little dragon tree that he placed on your lap.
toji shrugs, falling onto the seat beside you. “look sweetheart, clearly i can give you a kid,” he pauses and nods his head towards megumi who’s too busy watching cartoons from your phone. “but i want you to be sure that you want a kid with-.”
“toji?”
he clears his throat and looks away, avoiding your eyes. “just want you to be sure that you want a kid with someone old like me.”
your eyes widen as realization pools in your stomach, your heart clenching at seeing the doubt and insecurity in toji’s eyes. you put the plant down and surge toward toji’s side, your arms wrapping around him as you pull him in your embrace.
“toji, i love you,” you declare, voice steady and sure. “you’re perfect as you are, and even more so for me. so yeah, i’m very, very sure that i want to have a kid with you.”
you know it’d take more for toji to truly believe you, but you see his shy smile and for now, that’s enough.
“i love you too, sweetheart,” he whispers after a moment, his lips coming to press a kiss on your forehead.
you hum, burrowing in his arms.
(for now, you and toji keep to ‘raising’ and caring for the plant. unironically, megumi names it ryuu and baby-talks to it the way he does with his dogs.)

ryuu = dragon
