The Hero Villain War had been over for 3 years. A tough gruesome battle fought so intensely it made Japan the center of attention of the rest of the world from the moment it had started.

Eventually Good won over Evil but at a great cost to all those involved whether it be from physical or mental damage. But as the survivors of this fierce conflict heal so does Japan.

With UA being the leading force in the fight against All For One and the league of villains they too became the leading force in rebuilding and reuniting Japan and its people.

This of course took up majority of UA's remaining resources and man power to do so. And so it came at the price of closing down its education of the next generation of heroes to focus on rebuilding the nation.

Now after three long years of continuous work on construction and rehoming aswell as reuniting families with the help of other nations across the globe. It was now time for UA to rebuild itself and bring the hero school back into action.

To rebuild they began with recreating Heights Alliance to be able to house new students and their families aswell as previous students who wish to complete their lost education aswell as any UA staff.

Rather then have single rooms with shared bathrooms. Each complex had been expanded to become either 2 or 3 bedroom apartments with ensuites and kitchen areas aswell as a living area. Simple but plenty of room.

Izuku Midoriya stood in one of these apartments and saw the nothing but empty space. It wasn't a home at least not yet. He had to make it a home.

Izuku was fortunate to earn a three bedroom apartment. A room for himself. One for his mother Inko and a room for guests. Which basically translated to a room for Eri for when she wanted to visit and spend time with the Midoriyas.

During the three years Izuku traveled across Japan helping rebuild along with the other 1A and 1B hero course students. Most of his time was spent under the guidance and mentorship of the Urarakas. So Izuku became pretty hand and knowledgeable on building things through their teachings.

The thought of the Urarakas naturally lead to him thinking of Ochako. His closest and best friend had been hurt terribly in the war while fighting the villianess Himiko Toga. She lost so much blood the medical personnel feared she would not survive. If it weren't for the fact that Himiko had a change of heart and gave her life for Ochako then she most certainly wouldn't have made it.

Although she did make it in the end she never really recovered fully mentally. Months after the war she remained wheelchair bound. This was due to her mentally not being able to bring herself to do the work to regain her mobility. She became bitter and suffered depression from it all.

Even when Izuku frequently visited her to get her out of the mental state she was stubborn. They eventually got her back to her feet and found her smile again.

In that time they rebuilt their friendship with both young heros hoping to kindle the flame of the unspoken love for each other. However it was not to be. The darkness that plagued Ochakos mind managed to plant seeds of doubt deep with in. She had no doubt that their friendship was true.

However any love from Izuku she couldn't not accept. Her mind convincing her that the feelings green headed boy had for her were out of pity not true love.

And so she snuffed out the fire before the embers could even spread into the night sky. It broke Izuku's heart but accepted it for what it was not wanting to lose their friendship completely.

Years later Ochako regretted the decision she made but the damage between them had been done. Neither of them feeling confident or deserving enough to have the other.

Izuku shook his head from the depressing thoughts and wiped his eyes. He need to focus on setting up his new home from himself and his mother.

The first thing he noticed was that he needed storage for some of his personal items that survived the war. Mostly his All Might collection. And a table for dining. He and his mother can survive without a couch for now.

Picking up his phone he did a google search of storage ideas. One that popped up that seemed neat and pretty simple and easy to put together was the Smarty box. "Hmmm where is the closest place to buy one."

Another search for a store revealed a nearby shop had the item in stock. "Hammerbarn... I wonder if they have a table in there aswell?" He asked himself as he pocketed his phone and grabbed his wallet heading out the door.

"This Episode of My Heeler Academia is called Hammerbarn Musutafu."

Izuku stood on the street staring up at the large tin warehouse painted green with a hammer logo painted above its doors. "This place is huge." He looked back down to the large sheds entrance and noticed a Gazebo set up with a few people working on a portable hot grill cooking.

At closer glance he saw a chalkboard saying that it was a charity bbq to raise money for Heroes For The homeless. Then listed prices for drinks and something called a sausage sizzle.

"Would you like a sausage sir?" Called out one of the workers who made him instantly do a double take recognising them "Mirio?!"

The older hero grinned at Izuku and used his quirk to casually walk through the grill and give a handshake "Hey Deku. Been a while."

"It has. What are you doing here?" The one for all holder asked.

"Well they have a kids craft session here every weekend so I come volunteer here while Eri goes and does the crafts inside." The blonde answered

"Eri is here?"

Mirio nodded "If you go inside and turn right and walk all the way to the end you'll find a coffee shop and a kids playground. The crafts area is on the opposite side of the playground and she should be there if you wanna say hello."

"I think I'll do that. I haven't seen her for a few weeks actually." Izuku thought out loud.

"So you still want a sausage?" Mirio asked

With a shrug Izuku handed over some cash to the older blonde and soon received a slice of buttered white bread with a beef sausage on top with some grilled onions topped with Tomato sauce.

"Enjoy!"

As the young hero walked into the store biting into his food. He was struck with a sense of surprise that the simple meal turned out to be so delicious. Before he even began heading into the direction of where he assumed Eri to be he had the whole sausage sizzle consumed and only the paper napkin remained with its sausage grease stain and splotches of sauce.

He discarded the napkin into a nearby bin and walked over to the crafting area. He soon found a group of children working on painting plant pots. Amongst them he soon found Eri's silver hair.

As we began his approach he noticed a woman kneeled down beside Eri helping her where she could wearing a green apron over the top of a flannel blue shirt and jeans. It was only after a few seconds that the woman had a mutant quirk which gave her the appearance of a dog.

Seeing him approach she looked towards him before Eri did. In that moment their eyes met and locked on each other. They seemed to be distracted by one another for reasons Izuku couldn't explain. Then she smiled at him warmly that was full of kindness before she spoke "Something I can help you with?"

Shaking his head to clear his mind he refocused on the task at hand "Oh uh yeah I was just coming over to say hello to Eri"

At the sound of his voice and the mention of her name the little girl gasped and looked up to him "Deku!" She sprang to her feet and tackled the young man into a hug.

The dog woman chuckled as she stood up to her full height only being slightly shorted then Izuku was "So you're Deku.. Eri speaks highly of you when we do crafts together."

Izuku smiled at the silver hair girl as they hugged. As quickly as she came in she ran over to her pot just as quick to show the painting job she did on it revealing it to show the same colour scheme as his hero costume. "I was planning to give this to you the next time I saw you." The little girl announced.

The green haired boy was touched and had already made a mental note of where to place the pot in the new apartment.

"So why are you here Deku?"

"Oh I came to get one of those Smart Box things and maybe a table for the new apartment. Where would I find those actually?" He asked the woman.

She simply pointed in a direction and casually said "Aisle 300. Left at the fake grass. If you hit a flamingo you've gone too far."

Both Izuku and Eri looked at the dog woman with equally confused looks not entirely sure they fully understood her directions.

She slowly smirked and let out a giggle "Don't stress I'll show ya where to go.". With that she gave a wave to one of the other store works to show she's going to help the green haired customer.

The three walked together as Izuku shyly asked "I didn't catch your name."

She looked over at him with the same smile she gave him before "I'm Bluey."

At the mention of her name it dawned on Izuku that her fur did have a blue like colour along with some black. But it was the colour blue that stood out to him that made the hero think that her name was appropriate for her.

They arrived at Aisle 300 and Izuku began scratching his head as there were many different size and shapes of the Smart Squares to choose from. Bluey recommended to him to get the larger one as extra space is better to have then not enough.

Agreeing he picked up the largest cardboard box that had all the parts he needed. Although Hammerbarn didn't have a table to what he had in mind the blue doggie woman showed him some nice pieces of pre oiled and varnished timber that he could use to make his own table. Along with some pre made legs that all he needed to do was screw them on himself.

Satisfied Bluey began leading the trio back to checkout only for Eri to say "So what craft will make next week Bluey?"

Izuku noticed Blueys ears shoot up immediately in alarm then slowly droop down as she frowned slightly "Sorry honey but today was my last day. I start my internship at the hospital tomorrow."

Eri simply looked forward with an "Oh." As they kept walking "Will I see you again?" The little girl asked innocently.

Bluey scratches the back of her head in thought before looking at the girl "I'll tell you what. I'll give Mirio my number and we can organise a play date together." She then glance back at Izuku and her smile turned playful "Or I could give my number to big fella here."

Izuku jolted in surprise as he looked at the cattle dog in shock with a blush creeping up on his cheeks "Wait wh-what?"

Bluey crossed her arms and turned to him fully "I'm offering you my phone number so I can keep in touch with my little craft mate here."

"Please Deku." Pleaded Eri with puppy dog eyes that he felt as though Bluey taught that to her somehow. With a defeated sigh the two exchanged phones and entered one another's details into it.

As Bluey took her phone back she looked at it commenting "Izuku "Deku" Midoriya. Hmmm sounds familiar for some reason." She then pocketed her phone giving Izuku the impression she has no idea who he is.

Thinking nothing more of it they continued to the checkout where Bluey sneakily used her work card to give Izuku the employee discount. He went to argue that she didn't need to do that but she already put it through saying "Just keep that one between us." She winked.

With his shopping done and Mirio finished with the charity barbecue the two heroes and little girl got ready to return to heights alliance. With a wave Bluey turned to head back to her duties at the crafts area "See ya later!"

As Izuku watched her disappear into the green she'd all he could really say was "Yeah... See you later."
