"I'm a little sad to say goodbye to the place."

Hizashi was stood in the hallway looking around at the apartment.

It had been a busy few days after the two pros had received word that they had been assigned as dorm parents for 1-A. The new role meant moving onto campus into the newly built staff village a short walk away from the main blocks, which also meant having to say goodbye to their current apartment.

Despite having only called it home for two months, Hitoshi couldn't help but feel emotional about letting the place go. He felt safe within its walls and he wasn't sure how easy he'd find falling asleep in new, unfamiliar surroundings.

Being both the now officially adopted son of Eraserhead and Present Mic and a student of 1-A made him eligible to live within the staff village at their apartment and in an assigned dorm over at Heights Alliance.

Hitoshi wasn't so sure about staying in the dorms, not yet anyway. No, he was far better off having the comfort of knowing two pro heroes were in the room next door.

What he did know though was that he needed to get packing because they were on a tight schedule to get moved in, not that he had a lot to pack in the first place.

With the plastic stacking box he'd been supplied by Hizashi sat on the bed, Hitoshi went slowly around the room with his notebook ticking everything off:

The cat plush Shouta bought for him a week or so after he'd came to live with them The framed photo of them all at the pizza place The radio from the facility which Hizashi had looked after for him at the hospital His new capture scarf (which he couldn't wait to try out in a training session with Shouta) The origami animals Inko had taught him how to make, hers significantly better than his Various gachapon capsules he'd gotten while out with Kacchan and Zuku including: A chibi Present Mic (which he'd honestly nearly screamed about when he realised who it was) A chibi Fat Gum (because obviously he didn't get Hizashi on the first try) A chibi Midnight (or the second) Mount Lady clip on horns A Kawaii Kawaii Pussycats flashing paw keyring thing (which he honestly didn't know why he'd kept) An All Might burger squishie (Zuku's spare) A Selkie cat hat complete with sewn on ears which he'd attempted to put on both Jelly and Cream resulting in painful failure An Edgeshot enamel pin And a Ms. Joke smiley face bouncy ball Three Crimson Riot manga novels Kirishima had donated as part of his 'education about the mighty Crimson Riot' His Moominvalley books His prescription And last but not least a photo strip of Kacchan, Zuku and him taken in the photo booth at the arcade with the three of them pulling stupid faces. The last shot was the only one where they were smiling nicely.

Hitoshi looked at the picture and smiled.

"Hey, remember when you didn't scare everyone with a big ugly scar across your eye?" He muttered to himself before packing the photo away inside one of the Crimson Riot novels along with the oragami to keep them safe. He put the books into his backpack before zipping it up.

"You doing okay in here, little listener?"

Hitoshi jumped.

"Yeah, I'm uh, I'm fine."

"Sorry, didn't mean to startle ya'. Just leave the clothes, Shouta and I can sort them later."

"Thanks."

The dorms were on the edge of the UA campus, about a five-minute walk away from the main school. Cementoss-sensei had built all of them and the staff village in just three days and the scale was truly something to behold, they were huge.

Parking up and heading to their new apartment, Hitoshi's eyes widened at the sight before him.

It was HUGE.

He wasn't sure if it could even be called an apartment; the three-level house had a long wooden balcony which stretched along its entire western side of the second and the eastern side of the third.

"Home sweet home." Hizashi smiled as he opened the trunk, handing him his backpack. "Looks good right?"

He nodded, slinging the straps over his shoulders.

"Then go explore." The voice hero tossed him the keys. "Take my lovely husband with you too."

Right, Shouta wouldn't know the layout at all.

The erasure hero flipped down his cane after climbing out the car.

Hitoshi walked over and waited for permission to take him by the elbow. They headed towards the house.

"It must be weird having to learn a whole new place."

"When you've moved around as much as I have over the years, you get used to it." Shouta answered.

He unlocked the door and pushed it open.

"Careful there's a step."

The erasure hero clicked his cane against the concrete before navigating the small incline and entering inside.

"Woah!"

The first thing that struck Hitoshi was the amount of light. Huge windows allowed beautiful sunlight to pass through and illuminate the open plan house. The kitchen was to the right with the living room to the left just as their old apartment had been. The stairs followed the curve of the building itself, leading up one wall and then connecting to the other in an L shape to the balconied second level, with the same design also leading up to the third.

Something in particular caught his eye though.

"No way!"

"What?" Shouta asked.

"There's a garden! We have a garden!"

He led the hero to the sliding doors connected to the back of the kitchen which led out to a decked porch area and an expanse of grass. Glass wind chimes hung from a hook just outside the door singing in the light breeze of the mid-afternoon.

Shouta's arm came to wrap around his shoulders.

"So where's next tour guide?"

Hitoshi smirked.

Navigating the stairs proved… interesting but they managed in pretty good time with the erasure hero even having managed to commit to the number of steps to memory as they did so, the second level consisted of a large master bedroom and a connecting bathroom, and the third was much the same aside from an extra smaller bedroom at the end of the hall.

"Bet you never thought you'd have an entire floor to yourself." Shouta smiled.

He shook his head in wonderment.

"This is amazing!"

"Why don't you leave us to get unpacked and go and see how your friends are getting on?"

"You sure, I don't mind helping?"

"Go, just be back for dinner, okay?"

He nodded with a smile.

"Thank you."

Hitoshi rushed off.
