Shoji POV

Bakugo and Kirishima are being loud again...I normally can sleep through it...but it's much louder than normal...I wish these two had a whole floor to themselves and I was put on some other floor...I'm pretty sure everyone else is already asleep...who wouldn't be? It's really late...

I check the time on my phone.

It's after midnight...maybe I could go to someone's room and sleep there...who here would be fine with that, though? I'm pretty sure the people who would are hard sleepers or they finally fell asleep and I really don't want to wake them up...maybe...Y/N? She usually stays up late and is really kind...I'll go ask her...





Y/N POV

I yawn.

I've been working on a new bracelet or ring that will pull my throwing knives to me after I throw them. I originally was going to sleep...but every time I closed my eyes I saw...

The creation of a philosopher's stone.

So, I decided to start working so I didn't have to sleep.

I hear a knock on my door.

Huh?

I get up and walk over to my door. I open it and see a sleep Shouji.

"Oh, hey, Shouji. What's up?" I greet.

"Bakugo and Kirishima are being louder than normal...could I sleep here tonight?" Shouji explains.

"Sure. Come on in. My beds over there make yourself at home," I reply, closing the door behind Shouji.

"Where are you gonna sleep?" Shouji asks.

"I'm not. I'm just doing random things at my work desk and potion station..." I answer, sitting back in my desk chair.

"I see...you should still get some sleep, though..." Shouji says, slight concern in his voice.

"I'll be fine. Get some sleep, Shouji," I state, getting back to work.

It gets really quite. There's only the sound of breathing and rather quiet metal clanking.

I hear Shouji move around. I feel his eyes on me.

"Am I being too loud? Is there too much light? I can make it darker and try to be more quiet..." I say, turning around to face Shouji.

"No...you're fine. I have a question," Shouji replies.

"What is it?" I ask, rubbing my eyes.

"What's your opinion on heroes?" Shouji asks.

"I don't get what you're asking," I reply.

"Through our your life, what's been your thoughts on heroes?" Shouji rewords his question.

"It's changed a lot..." I answer, turning my head away from Shouji to the floor.
