"Mr. Yamada, are you Present Mic?" Kana asks over breakfast the next morning. It's store bought breakfast because Hizashi had burnt the eggs, he could almost hear Nemuri and Shout laugh at him.

"Yeah, I am. Didn't I tell you?" Hizashi asks. Kana shakes her head, and Hizashi feels his face grow warm. Oh, that's what he forgot to do. "How'd you figure it out?"

"Your costume, you left it out," Kana says. Hizashi just nods and helps her open a juice packet.

"Sorry about that, I thought I told you, must've scared you that a complete stranger suddenly wanted to take you in, huh?" Hizashi asks. Kana hesitates but nods as she drinks some of her milk. "If all goes well…I'm going to adopt you." Kana nearly drops her milk as she stares at him with wide pink eyes.

"Why?" Kana asks as she puts down the glass of milk. She's gripping the edge of the table. Hizashi looks at her, his heart breaking.

"I've always wanted kids, and well…I've gotten attached to you. I've already sent in requests to the state," Hizashi says. "But if you don't want me to adopt you, I won't." Kana is looking at the table, and when she stares back at him, her eyes are filled with tears.

"I was hoping you'd adopt me," Kana says, her cheeks red as she wipes at her eyes. Hizashi reaches over and ruffles her hair.

"A friend of mine wants to meet you, that is if you want to meet her. We can talk to her over video chat," Hizashi says as he throws away his empty to go box. He washes his hands and sits down on the kitchen counter.

"Is she nice?"

"Yeah, she's just a handful and likes to tease me and Shouta a lot, we've known her since high school,"

"Who's Shouta?"

Hizashi pauses before he answers. "A really good friend of mine," A friend he's been pining since he was fifteen. He hops down from the kitchen counter and helps Kana clean up the kitchen. It's a weekend so Kana doesn't have to go to school, so he and Kana sit on the couch and watch t.v.

"I want to meet your friend,'' Kana says an hour later. There's some cartoon on, but she's more interested in playing some kind of game on Hizashi's Ipad. Hizashi grins and grabs his laptop and turns it on. He texts Nemuri to make sure she's awake, and a few minutes later she replies that she's awake and ready to meet Kana. Hizashi starts to video call and Kana moves closer so she's sitting next to him.

"Hi, Kana. I'm Nemuri Kayama. Aw, you are cute!" Nemuri says. Hizashi watches as Kana's face goes red and she hides her face in her hands.

"Nemuri, don't make her combust," Hizashi says. "How is Tomoko? You and her doing well?" Nemuri nods and waves her hand, showing off a ring. "She proposed?! Am I going to be your best man?!"

"Sorry, but that spot's taken by Yawara," Nemuri says. Hizashi pouts, and Kana is just very very confused. Hizashi ruffles her hair when she looks at him with a pout on her face.

"Nemuri's just got engaged to her girlfriend. Have you heard of the Wild Wild Pussycats?" Hizashi asks. Kana shakes her head no. "They're Pro-Heroes that specialize in forest rescues. Ragdoll's Quirk is Search, so it's very useful when it comes to search and rescue."

"That is so cool," Kana says with her mouth wide open. Nemuri laughs, a bit smugly, and Hizashi grins.

"Tomoko is the best, you should meet her when you come home with Hizashi! She'd love you, kid!" Nemuri says. Kana goes a bit red, a small smile on her face as she fiddles with the end of her braid.

"Where is she? She should meet Kana now!" Hizashi says, he puts a bit of his Quirk into it. He looks sheepish when Kana and Nemuri winces and he mutters a sorry.

"Some hikers got lost so she's out looking for them, but Shouta just got here! Shouta come meet your new daughter!" Nemuri shouts. Hizashi chokes on his own spit as he glares at Nemuri who only laughs at him. Of course Nemuri would tease him about his crush on Shouta, she's done it for the past fifteen years.

"Fuck you, Nemuri," Hizashi says. He freezes and glances at Kana who only looks confused. "Don't repeat that, okay? It's a bad word!" Shouta appears in view of the camera, and Hizashi sighs because Shouta looks like a mess, even more than usual.

"Ummm….hi?" Kana says with a tiny wave. Nemuri squeals, and Shouta winces and shoves her away.

"Don't squeal like that. I've heard a lot about you, Kana," Shouta says as he sits down on the couch beside Nemuri. Hizashi turns a bit red, he hasn't bragged about Kana that much.

"Bragging about your new daughter already, Hizashi? You're such a dad, it's so cute. I think you and Shouta will make wonderful dads," Nemuri says, her voice still teasing. Hizashi glares at her while Shouta doesn't even look phased; but poor Kana just looks so confused and lost. Poor kid.

"You're confusing the kid, Nemuri. Hizashi may adore children but he still has to learn how to cook without burning the food," Shouta snorts. Nemuri laughs while Hizashi huffs, he wasn't even going to mention burning the eggs.

"He burned the eggs this morning," Kana says quietly. Hizashi gives her a betrayed look as Nemuri falls off the couch laughing, while Shouta looks a bit amused.

"Look, I can learn how to cook," Hizashi huffs. Nemuri is still laughing, and Shouta looks even more amused.

"Really? Maybe I'll learn how to cook too," Shouta says. Nemuri laughs even harder and Hizashi wonders if she'll die of laughter.

"Shouta, please don't joke, it's kinda scary and also please help Nemuri," Hizashi says. Shouta rolls his eyes but reaches down and pokes Nemuri.

"Nemuri it's not that funny, stop laughing," Shouta pokes her again. Nemuri takes a few deep breaths before getting back onto the couch.

"Please adopt her, I love her already. Kana you can call me Aunt Nemuri, I'm basically Shouta and Hizashi's sister," Nemuri says warmly. Hizashi grins as Kana turns bright red and hides her face in her hands as she nods. "You can call Shouta papa!" Hizashi is really wishing he could smack Nemuri with a pillow. Shouta is looking away from the camera but Hizashi swears he could see a bit of red on his face…..nah.

"Sorry to cut this short guys but Kana and I are heading out, we're going to the movies,'' Hizashi says. Kana looks a bit surprised, but smiles and hops off the couch to go put her shoes on.

"Hizashi...she seems like a good kid," Shouta says. Hizashi blinks, a bit surprised, but nods and smiles as he ends the call.
