#SHE HAD A CAT WHO ALREADY LOST ONE PARENT!!! THIS ISNT FAIRRRRR

[zukkaoru]

i dont think ive asked you yet so what is ‘special mission: save the cat’ about? <3

this one is a deceptively silly doc title for a fic that is abt dealing with the aftermath of character death. basically post-plf arc, aizawa calls shinsou from the hospital and is like i need you to 1. check on eri and 2. get midnight’s cat from her apartment. and shinsou is like. hey why am i getting midnight’s cat. aizawa. aizawa why does someone need to go get midnight’s cat—

anyway have an excerpt:

“Shinsou-nii,” she mumbles. “Um. Why are we doing this?” He falters. There’s—really no good answer to that question. “Well,” he starts, searching for anything to say that isn’t the full truth, “no one is really sure how long some of the heroes are going to be at the hospital, so… Midnight-sensei might need someone to take care of her cat for a while.” He grimaces at his own words, because he knows they sounded too hopeful. But Aizawa didn’t want him to tell Eri the truth. She’ll have to find out eventually, though. “Is she going to be okay?” Eri asks, voice small. “I don’t know,” Hitoshi lies. Eri squeezes his hand tighter, bumping into him with her next step. She doesn’t say anything, but after another moment, Hitoshi hears a sniffle.
