Sokka's POV

Sokka held Izuku in his arms as he walked around the base, Moeta was taking a much needed rest after being awake for nearly forty hours and Yoichi was getting another health check by the base's doctors.

"Pops, I wanna to go see Uncle." Izuku mumbled and Sokka froze, not sure of what to say to his newly acquired son.

He couldn't very well let the child meet the man again, what if they found out that Hisashi was their real Dad and not Yoichi. It would be a disaster, not cause of Izuku's reaction...but because the boy cared about family to a point in which they would do anything for them as shown when they tried to make Yoichi happy.

"Well, perhaps when your Daddy and Papa are less busy we can do just that, does sound good?" Sokka asked, giving Izuku a smile and hopefully postponing actually allowing his new son to go and see their biological father.

"Ok Pops, how long will take?" Izuku asked and Sokka hesitated for a moment, before he bit his lip.

"Well, it might take a while, me and your Papa are busy saving the world...and your Daddy is also helping us." Sokka said gently, giving the toddler a small smile." You also have to realize that your Uncle is still recovering, he needs quiet and rest...he shouldn't be disturbed unless he has too."

Izuku seemed to frown, their face scrunching into a thoughtful expression, their curly white hair shining in the light of the bedroom.

"Pops, can I get a puppy?" Izuku asked eventually and Sokka blinked at the sudden change in conversation topic." I promise to ex...exorcise it, um, feed it and play with it! It doesn't need to be a big dog, it can be small!"

As much as Sokka didn't like the idea of dog running around the base, compared to Izuku's previous question of seeing Hisashi, he considered this more reasonable. He sighed and realized Moeta was going to murder him for what he was about to do, he gave Izuku a nod and smiled.

"Sure, why don't we do that right now, we can go get a dog...let's say, from a shelter?" Sokka suggested and Izuku grinned, bouncing up and down.

"Yes!" Izuku exclaimed and Sokka chuckled, before turning towards the exit of the base.

Yoichi's POV

Yoichi ran his hands through his hair, trying to process the paperwork in front of him. He had offered to help the resistance and the only thing he was really able to do was the paperwork and he wasn't the overall best at it.

"Having trouble?" Moeta's voice broke his thoughts and Yoichi turned towards the man, giving a sheepish smile.

"I um, I haven't had to do this since I was vaulted halfway through college." Yoichi admitted and he earned a hum of acknowledgement, Moeta walked over and sat down in a chair nearby." Any particular reason you've dropped by, I thought your were taking a nap?"

Moeta let out a small huff.

"I was, but Sokka sent a text to tell me that he was leaving the base with Izuku for a couple of hours." Moeta said and Yoichi gave a small worried frown, hoping that his son and Sokka would be alright." Apparently it's a distraction for Izuku, because he has been asking Sokka to visit his...Uncle..."

Yoichi flinched a bit at that, but he also understood from Izuku's perspective...this wasn't fair to Hisashi who hadn't done anything to Izuku himself. He just wished that Izuku wasn't so interested in his Uncle, because what if Izuku found out the truth...that Hisashi wasn't his Uncle, but his actual father.
