Tsukauchi(groaning): He's going to meet Giran isn't he? Great...

It had been a week since Giran started following him and Izuku was beginning to get frustrated. The guy was supposedly one of the best brokers in the underground and was obviously good enough to find him, so one week should be more than enough time for him to confirm his suspicions. Izuku knew that he didn't really look the part of a villain, because what criminal mastermind lets himself be bullied everyday, but come on.

Kurogiri: He is simply being careful. A cocky broker is a dead one.

It was with these thoughts that Izuku decided to deviate from his normal daily routine, a routine that Giran should be familiar with at this point if he was paying any attention. Hopefully his annoying stalker would come out of the woodwork if given a good enough opportunity. If not, Izuku might just walk right up to the guy and punch him in the face. Actually, he winced as he thought back to his inability to fight against his bullies, probably not.

Bakugo(shooting a double take): Deku how often do you think of punching people?

Midoriya: ...

Bakugo: Deku?!

Izuku wound his way through the city, heading in the opposite direction from Dagobah beach. It was a part of the city that he was only familiar with through maps, meaning that there wouldn't be anyone there who would recognize him, and it was a medium-better part of town, meaning that, with any luck, there wouldn't be anyone there who would recognize Giran either. A nice, neutral territory for a first meeting.

Twice: Look at that, he's doing so well! Wrong move, idiot!

Spinner: I wonder which of us will meet him first.

Toga: I hope it's me!

Shigaraki: It's probably me or Kurogiri or both. You guys haven't joined up with the League yet.

LOV: Aw.

The cafe Izuku walked into had good reviews, but he honestly didn't care about how good their coffee was. What Izuku cared about was that it was busy this time of day, which meant there was enough ambient noise that he and Giran would be able to talk without being overheard, and there was the added bonus that one one would be suspicious over two strangers sharing a table. Izuku walked up to the counter and gave his order. Now all that was left was for his stalker to take the bait.

It didn't take long at all for Giran to enter the cafe, at least considering how long he'd stubbornly insisted on following Izuku. If he'd taken any longer, Izuku was considering messaging the guy to just come inside. The boy watched the broker wait in line out of the corner of his eye, chuckling when he noticed that Giran had even put out his ever present cigarette. He was halfway through his coffee when Giran slid into the seat across from him.

Kurogiri: I was wondering if he'd ever actually put it out...

"I was wondering if you were ever going to actually talk to me."

A look of shock briefly crossed the broker's face before he let out a surprised laugh.

"You knew I was following you."

Dabi: Yup.

"I make a living being more observant than most people. Of course I knew." Izuku took another sip of his coffee, "What I don't know is why you insisted on observing for a full week before coming to talk to me. You must have had pretty good intel on who I was; watching my daily routine wasn't going to change that."

Giran chuckled and shook his head, "Well it took me a week to be sure I had the right guy, and even now you're sitting here confirming it and I'm still not sure."
