Time Can Tell

That look.

Multiple groups all fighting for different things, it was absolute chaos out there.

"Underground." Izuku, did the jazz hands as he said this. Finding the name itself took a while

"Who?" He couldn't blame Shoto for being confused, he did just name a hero who was practically untraceable and unknown by all mainstream media platforms. Being born in his generation he knows his way around things parental controls should keep you away from.

"They are an underground hero, who is conveniently named Underground." cue the jazz hands again as he says this, his reading glasses which he put on when he remembered he can't read some tiny words on a tiny phone, slipped off. He crouched down to pick it up and he caught Iida's eyes. He knew that look.

"Did anything happen to Iida?" Izuku tried to turn their conversation in a discreet way but it was very obviously random and unrelated to internships.

"Yes." Izuku waited for Shoto to elaborate but when he didn't, Izuku spent the next 5 minutes prodding him for details.

"His brother." Shoto seemed unable to say anymore details, Izuku wonders if it was out of respect for Iida's privacy or because he didn't know he had to say more.

"What about his brother, the hero one, right?" Izuku watched as s
Shot seemed to realise he had to say more.

"He got hurt." Izuku bit of the urge to answer sarcastically, it's not his fault that he doesn't understand social cues most of the time.

"How hurt?" Shoto looks at Iida for a little while before answering.

"Is it right for us to talk about him like this?" Shoto suprises Izuku on different ways everyday.

"You know what, you are right, let's ask him!" Izuku walked up to Iida's desk and crouched down. For such a big school they provide the most useless glasses to wear. Sliding down his face constantly.

"Hi." Izuku noticed how Iida's eyes hardened as he stood infront of him.

"Go away" He whispered the last part but Izuku knew exactly what it was.

"At least say it, it could make you feel better." Izuku would prefer if he didn't but he kind of felt a small obligation to lift the pups mood.

"Go away, Midoryia." Izuku could tell that Iida was the kind of person not to 'burden' others with his feelings, especially someone he does not hold in high regards.

"Someone hurt someone you loved, I'm guessing and based of your new behavior towards me it was a villain who did it." Iida's suprised look told him that he was correct, he peeked at the agency on his internship sheet. It wasn't his family's one.
