"Wakey wakey Eraser," is the first thing Shouta hears after regaining consciousness. "Don't even bother trying to sit up Eraser, we have you cuffed to the bed with your own quirk erasing cuffs," the voice mocks. After blinking the haze from his eyes Shouta lifts his head as much as he can to try to get a feel for where he is and who's around him. The first person he lays his eyes on just so happens to also be the disembodied voice he was hearing, Tomura Shigaraki. "Eraser, we don't want to hurt you," came a new voice, "I'm not surprised you and Mic were there, however you had no business being down in the basement of UA. I sent that email to make sure all the innocent ones were away from the campus, the children, the rat, and the few pro heroes that actually give even half a rat's ass about everyone, not just those who suit your own following." As Shouta's senses continue coming back to him he realizes the new voice he is hearing belongs to none other than the number two pro hero Hawks.
After sitting there staring at the two men for what seems like ages, Eraser hears little beeping like that of a hospital and looks around to find the source of the sound. "I presume you are wondering about the beeping?" Shigaraki inquired. "We have you hooked up to monitors making sure you weren't going to die on us considering the collapse you were a part of." "That would make sense as to why I am also feeling cold," Shouta states as he realizes he's missing his shirt. "It was torn anyway before we were able to pull you through the portal Kurogiri created," Hawks answered. "We have you a spare change of clothes, however it's not your usual style Eraser." Hawks continues as he grabs the aforementioned change of clothes, a pair of stonewashed blue jeans and a neon orange t-shirt with a bright green alien head on it that says *I'm an alien, just don't tell anyone*. Shouta eyes the get up with distaste. "Awe come on Eraser don't be that way, it's the only thing we had in your size," Shigaraki muses.
"Anyway Eraser, we would like to talk, just the three of us, to explain ourselves. And to explain the email that was sent out. I'm sure you have questions and we would like to give answers. We also would like to get you out of the cuffs now that you're awake. Will you agree to at least hear us out?" Hawks asks with his hands up. We really would like to collaborate on what needs done and we need you and a few other heroes to trust us. I know it seems shady that the number 2 is working with seemingly known villains but believe me, you have no idea who the real villains are. So, Aizawa, can I take the cuffs off so you can change and you agree to hear us out?" Hawks asked hopefully.
Looking Hawks and Shigaraki up and down with a nod the erasure hero agrees to hear the men out. If for no other reason than morbid curiosity as to why the winged hero is truly working with the LOV instead of as the inside man that the commission told everyone that he was.
After getting the cuffs off and his clothes changed *gag* Aizawa is ready to hear the two men explain what is going on. "I agreed to listen and hear you out but I do have a request of my own," Aizawa said as the men sat around a small conference table in the Leagues hideout. "And what would that be?" Shiggy asked, amused that Eraser was ballsy enough to make a request even though they were all trying to talk as civilized adults and not hero versus villain. Shigaraki deep down really isn't as bad as everyone has made him out to be throughout his life, but tell someone they are evil enough times and they begin to believe it about themself. Even though he now has someone telling him he was wronged his whole life. "Food if we may. I'm not sure how long I've been out, but if my skewed sense of time is at all accurate I'd say it's been at least through the night that I was out, and I'm starting to become hungry." Aizawa said matter of factly.
"That is something we can do," Hawks said, calling on the com for someone to bring food to the conference room. With food ordered, it was time to get down to business and discuss the turn of events that has led the pro heroes and one 'villain' to be sitting civilly around a small round table waiting on the food before diving into the conversation needed to be had.
