A/N: YO! Here's a little something. A "deleted scene" of sorts from my recent fic "Question" To be honest, I completely forgot to include this scene in the fic itself originally, then going back and rereading it, I think it did fine without it either way, but I still liked it, so here it is! (and tbh I think it makes my obvious paring for these two a little more obvious, but still ^^; )

"You can erase quirks, right?" Hizashi asked, still looking away from Aizawa.

"Yeah, you know that." Aizawa could somewhat feel where this was going, but decided not to say anything.

"Have you ever tried…permanently erasing quirks?" Hizashi's voice was steady, but Aizawa could tell that it was hard on Hizashi to speak it.

"No, but even if I could, I wouldn't be so cruel to take away someone's quirk forever."

"Not even if it was a villain?" Hizashi asked looking up into Aizawa's eyes.

Aizawa could feel the pain behind Hizashi's eyes, it was hurting him to keep looking at him, "Let me rephrase, I would never take away a friend's quirk."

"Not even if they begged you to?"

Aizawa shook his head, "No, a quirk is like a special talent, something that you should be proud of, and even so, like I said, I don't think I would be able to bring myself to take away someone's quirk. It's like I'm taking a part of that person's being away from them.

Hizashi lightly snickered, "Man, Shouta, when you may not look it, but you really are a softie aren't you?"

Aizawa rolled his eyes, "I'm just a simple person like that. I just don't care for what other people think of me."

"Yeah, and you don't care for most other things either."

"True, but I do care about my friends, Yamada."

Hizashi's eyes widened slightly at him, even though Hizashi rarely referred to Aizawa by his first name, Aizawa almost never did call Hizashi by his.

Aizawa laid his hand on Hizashi's shoulder, "Remember, if you ever need help or need to vent, you can come to me, got that?"

Hizashi smiled and put his arm around Aizawa in a friendly one-armed embrace, "Yeah, you big softie!"

Aizawa narrowed his eyes, "Please let go," but they both didn't pull away.
