A/N: Hello everybody! I'm sorry how long this took, but I hope you enjoy this chapter!

"Welcome back, Izuku-kun!"

Izuku waved to Miki-san as he walked in the pet rescue; "Hey, Miki-senpai! How was your weekend?"

"Ooo, new person! And hey, it's the start of Mido Being Grounded ™ " Mina exclaimed, snickering as Izuku stammered out half-hearted protests.

Kero floated behind him as he pulled on his work apron. While he'd been upset at the prospect of having to miss out on hero-watching, being with animals was just as fulfilling. Currently, it was his second week of being grounded, but he's managed; plus, the animals like Kero, so that's a bonus.

"It was great! My little Hideo-tan has just started to form sentences!" The older man gushed. "It was so amazing when he told me he loved me 'bigger than cheese'!"

"Oh my goshhh, that's so adorable!" Toru gushed, flapping about, making Ojirou smile. "Babies are so pureeee."

Turning around nonchalantly, Tokoyami said, "Indeed, it is the very principle to why no other mind of darkness can reach back to that innocence."

On cue, everyone groaned and drawled: "Tokoyami."

Miki-san was divorced, amicably, three years ago and has weekends and winters with his kid, Miki-chan. Constantly the man talks about his kid, so much so that he's been asking Izuku for advice on parenting.

"I'm sure it was great," Izuku laughs, "but I still have to work. So," the two turn to each other, green eyes meeting pure black ones.

"Cool eyes." Kota commented, admiring the depth of the black eyes, and the little lights and glimmers in them, the refraction of other colours, almost like a dark galaxy in a pair of eyes.

"What do we need today?"

"Well, we just got two new abandoned pets yesterday, so we need to check up on them. The dog kennels need to be cleaned out and then a few need a bath, specifically Emi, Aki, and Adzuki." Izuku nodded, already grabbing the cleaning supplies and protective coverings.

"Hm, Midoriya seems to be here a lot...what a nice thing to do to past time!" Yaomomo approved, noting down the activity as something she might try out in her spare time.

"Then we just have the usual: food, water, and play."

A couple of hours later brings Izuku and Kero to the newly abandoned pets, Miki-san standing beside him. "These are them?" the greenette motioned to the two kennels beside one another, each holding a cowering animal.

"Yeah," Miki-san nodded. "The one on the left is a rabbit and the one on the right is a Somali cat, and, get this, both are named Sakura." Izuku gave an incredulous look to his senior, who laughed at his reaction. "I know, it's funny. Also, we think they belonged to the same household because they both have the same pet-safe star earrings."

"Earrings? But I don't think them both being named Sakura is a coincidence at this point." Ojirou chuckled, somehow finding the hell hole that is Izuku's life quite entertaining.

Not to sound like a sadist.

Kero perked up a bit at the mention of the earrings, something that Izuku did not miss. With nothing more than a simple instruction to not let them loose, Miki-san left the two alone to feed the rest of the animals. As soon as the door that separated the animals and the store, the two magic users turned to one another.

"I think these are the Jump and Dash cards," kero started off with, not even giving Izuku time to ask. "Named Sakura, and star earrings on pets? Rabbit and cat? Has got to be them."
