When Robin finally woke up her clock read 18:30, thankfully the noise from the traffic on the street below didn't bother her. Sitting up she looked to see both Peanut and jelly curled up in her hanging chair, 'I should get them a little basket' she thought as she got up. She quickly changed out of her uniform (she was only wearing the button-up and the skirt (Toshis not that evil) and into a pair of plaid pajama pants and a black tank top. She then left her room and into the kitchen, "well hello there kit" Izuku said getting up from the couch. "How you feelin?" he asked, "better" she whispered, her voice horse from underuse. "Why don't we get you some food?" he says, leading her to the dining room, Hizashi smiles as she sits down next to Izuku and Shota who are currently grading papers, "Shota! What have I said about work at the table!" Hizashi scolds turning toward his husband.

"Ooooh, dads gonna get ittttt!" Hitoshi giggled, "You feeling any better?" Robin gives him a small nod and a smile before digging into the Katsudon put in front of her. Izuku does a little happy shimmy before eating his, Shoto looking slightly confused leaned toward Robin. "Katsudon was his favorite thing to eat when we were little" she whispered. Shota nodded and went back to eating, they ate in silence before Hitoshi took all the empty bowls and went to do the dishes. Izuku then migrated to his room while Robin helped with the dishes, he pushed open his door to find Jelly asleep on his bed. He smiled lightly before pulling his old beaten sketchbook out of his bag, he hadn't told anyone he drew (except for Robin it's damn near impossible to hide shit from her) and he kinda didn't want to. As much as he wanted new supposed he liked the feeling of having something for himself.

He decided he would draw Jelly asleep on his bed, he pulled out his pencils and eraser and began. About 30 minutes later he finished, he wished he had colored pencils to color it in but the black and white sketch was still pretty on its own. He then flipped to one on his previous pages and began to work on the tattoo drawing on said page, it was a mixture of many things. Suddenly there was a knock on his door so he had to put his things away, "Who is it?" he asked. "It's Shota" Shota called, "Come on in Erasuerdad" Shota pushed open the door.  "Hey kiddo, why don't you get some sleep, you've got school tomorrow," he says, "Okie Erasurdad! Night!" he calls out happily as Shota leaves the room. "Goodnight problem child". Sure Izuku didn't like the nickname but it was only fair I mean he was letting him live with him, Izuku pushed those thoughts aside and drifted off to sleep.

Sleep did not come as easily for Robin and Hitoshi however, the two teens sat in their beds for about 2 hours trying to will themselves to sleep but, alas, it wasn't working. Finally giving up Robin went out to the kitchen to get some water, coincidentally Hitoshi was also in the kitchen though he was looking for his stash of cookies. "Fancy meeting you here," Robin says as she takes a sip of her water, "Couldn't sleep either," he asked after he pulled his cookies out of the pantry. Robin shakes her head as she sits on the counter, "want some?" Hitoshi askes pulling up the cookies. "Sure, wanna hang in my room?" she asks, Hitoshi nods and they both walk to Robin's room. Robin pushed open her window which led to a fire escape, "My Lord" she says in a mocking British tone. "Why thank you my lady" Hitoshi responds, climbing out the window, Robin rolls her eyes and climbs out after him.

They sit and talk for a little while about random things like school, the cats, their classmates. "So what was your life like before you got adopted?" Robin asked, "You don't have to tell me if you don't want to! I totally understand if you don't!" she adds when she noticed him freeze up. Hitoshi takes a deep breath before answering "No I'll tell you but, only if you tell me about yours" he says, Robin nods for him to continue. "My life was pretty ok I guess before I got my quirk, but when it manifested my parents weren't exactly happy." he says. "they told meI was never allowed to use it because it was a "villains quirk", but anyway. They abandoned me when I was 5, I spent a few years going to different foster homes because no one wanted me around. Said I was too dangerous or somtin'of the sort.''
