"Waahahaha! ~sobs~ I was so worried, Izuku! ~hic~"

"Mom, I told you, I'm completely fine. Don't worry too much about it" He tried to calm down his mother as she kept crying waterfalls and hugged him tightly.

"But- ~hic~ they said you nearly died! ~sob~ How can I not worry, Izuku?! ~snif~ I thought... I thought that you- waahahaha!~ You scared me to death, you know it?! ~hic~" He scratched the back of his neck uneasily. Of course he knew it.

"Yes, I know" He admitted in defeat.

"And you promised you would take care of yourself ~sob~" He almost winced physically.

"I-I know, I know, but look, no broken arms" He opened his arms. Inko then grabbed one of his hands, the one wrapped up in bandages.

"~sniff~ So what is the meaning of this, mister?"

"Ow, ow, ow, okay! But three broken fingers are way better than an arm, right?" The look in her eyes and the pout told him otherwise. "Maybe less bad...? I'm just saying that it could have been worse and-"

"Of course it could! God, an army of villains?! And you had to fight them, what is happening to the world?!"

"Mom, that's the whole point of our training"

"Training, Izuku, training. You and your friends had been facing far too dangerous situations. Hero killers, Yakuza bosses, and a League of Villains! What's next? Kaijus? An alien invasion? Actually, forget I said that it might happen" The short woman said, rubbing a hand over her face and sighing tiredly.

Inko didn't rest this night obviously because her son was missing, but even after the information that he was safe and sound, and it was around midnight, she didn't have a single minute of rest. She wanted to see her baby the moment he put his feet at UA but the police advised her to stay at home. Not all the villains were captured and they didn't know the extent of their knowledge about the school so they could be targeting the parents of the students. But once the sun appeared on the horizon and the sky began to lighten up, Inko took the first train and headed to UA at full speed. She banged at the heavy reinforced door and once inside she made her way to the dorms, looking around and completely ignoring the staff and whatever they had to say. Luckily for her, she encountered a pretty nice girl with pink hair that pointed the direction to 1-A dorms. She even showed the way as she too headed there.

And to say Midoriya got surprised when he woke up to the voice of his mother was an understatement. He instantly got out of his bed and rushed to the balcony, eyes widening once they laid on the familiar bun of green hair. Forget brushing teeth or even putting a shirt, he rushed down and out of the building to meet her right there in the garden.

"Come on, Mom, this would be too much. But if you stop to think-"

"No, absolutely not! If you tell me there's some project to send you to space the answer is forever no and-"

"Mom, Mom, I'm kidding, I'm not going anywhere" He said, resting his hands on her shoulders. Funny how things changed from when he was a kid. Normally she would be the one comforting him whenever he got hurt, soothing him and helping to make the pain go away. Now it was he who tried to send the tears away while she soaked his chest.

"If that was completely true you would still live with me ~sob~ Mama miss you a lot, you know that?"

"Yes, I miss you too"

"Then... the least you can do is stay safe. Izuku, I don't how much more of it I can handle"

"I promise- I'll do my best, Mom"

Inko showed a warm smile, feeling proud of her son and how much he has grown up already. They hugged again and stood like this until they heard a third voice.
