“I promise you the new guy at work is a mutant, Lup, like, laying money on the table level conviction here.”
“Lay it, then, chicken,” Lup says affectionately, helping him wash the dye out of his hair. “You should say something. You’ve already detailed all the ways you think he’s so dreamy. I’ll bet your phone could auto-predict a dirty soliloquy.”
“I resent that on multiple fronts,” Taako protests, nearly getting bright purple water in his mouth. “What am I supposed to do, just ask him if he’s got illegal super powers and also if he’s gay? Like-”
“You start with one,” Lup rinses his hair again, and the water is way colder this time. He yelps, and she clucks her tongue mockingly. “And follow up with the other.”
“Oh, so I’m just supposed to be like, I’m having a total mutant crisis–don’t worry, I’m mutant–and also do you kiss guys? Cause, get this-”
“You could transmute something in front of him?”
“Oh, right there in the fucking office?”
“Like you’ve never used your skills in public, you hypocrite.” She finally stops spraying and lets him sit up, toweling him off a little more aggressively than he deserves, in his humble and one hundred percent correct opinion.
“Uh, yeah, in full fuckin’ disguise?? You want me to do this in a place that knows my fucking social security number?”
“Then don’t, just ask him.”
“Which one.”
“Either, gods! You’re insufferable.” She starts cleaning up the mess, rolling her eyes loud enough for Taako to hear it. Who’s the hypocrite!
“You legally can’t say a word on this front, and I have screenshots to prove it!”
Her cheeks darken and her hair starts to flicker.
“That’s different, Barry and I-”
“Oh, you knew exactly who I meant, though, didn’t you?”
“Shut up!” She throws the other towel in his face. “Nut up or shut up! I don’t care if you tell him you wanna do magic in the broom closet, just-”
“Yuckarooni!”
“Just stop talking about it! He’s all you’ll fucking talk about, besides your stupid mortal enemy-”
“Oh, you want me to stop whining about the The Reaper trying to fucking kill me? I’m so sorry I’m bothering you!”
Lup groans and folds her arms.
“Taako,” she says.
“Lup,” he replies coldly, holding the yucky wet stained towel.
“I mean this with all the love in the world, but you’ve got to get a hobby. Besides vigilantism.”
“Yeah? What’s yours?”
She looks at him for a long moment, and he glares right back, and after a long beat, they both burst into laughter.
“Fuck,” she says. He nods in agreement. Boys aren’t worth it. They sigh in unison, and consider the situation deeply.
“I’m gonna just tell him,” Taako says. “Bet you fifty bucks.”
“Like you have fifty bucks,” she snorts, but she shakes his hand and pulls him into a hug anyway. “Can’t wait for you to buy me spency dinner tomorrow when you’re a huge gay mutant coward.”
“Bite me, firebird. I’m coming home with a boyfriend tomorrow.” He laughs, and inspects the dye job in the bathroom mirror. “Okay, not your worst attempt.”
“You’re fucking welcome,” she says sweetly, and squeezes his shoulder. “Next time I’m charging. If not for the cosmetology, at least for the advice.”

Do you have any favorite AUs, or any you've made? Always interested in seeing those and where Teru falls in them.
ive made SO many AUs dude let me go round some of them up. most of them are about teru
teru but he's in claw (Oh No) (the circumstances vary wildly in the three different versions i have)
teru instead of minori in mogamiland not clickbait???? (someone else already did it)
ritsu commits murder and terus just like "damn dude that sucks. i did that once"
ritshou miraculous ladybug au. teru runs the ladyblog
omori au. i have a whole sideblog for that
teru has Four separate bad times (WHY is separate spelled like that...)
the one where mob is a pirate and teru is a prince
a kind of weird one where most of the plot never happened. mob is a stick of a 24 year old, reigen is almost 40 and talking to strangers on the internet, teru is doing some costumed vigilante bullshit with his ego still intact, seasoning city is still intact,
these all sound like poop and thats because i made all of them half-asleep
