“You off for the day Inko?” Shoji Suzue smiled, looking up as her co-worker at a small, local law firm stood from her seat.
“Yep, got to go and save my brother-in-law from Izuku’s grasp.” Midoriya Inko chuckled pulling on her jacket. “he found a few papers in his office that weren’t in alphabetical order, and he had to fix it.”
“Oh dear, well, he will learn.” Shoji laughed.
“Na, he won’t, if he keeps making mistakes Izuku will want to go with him.” Inko said “He will do it just to get Izuku to come along.”
“Well, it keeps Izuku busy. And I know he has a better time working with his uncle then he would have a day care.” Inko said, “But, he has an important meeting in a few hours and I need Izuku home by then.”
“That is far, see you tomorrow.” Shoji smiled, Inko waved and left for the day.
Inko walked down the street, the sun slowly setting in the sky, she smiled softly. When she married Todoroki Hisashi, she was quickly made one of the family, His older brother and pro hero, Enji was already married and had kids. Enji had welcomed her so happily into their family home when she got the news she was pregnant. None of them could have foretold the sudden divorce papers she got from Hisashi, she as heart broken of course, but signed and then he vanished, leaving Inko and unborn child alone. Rei, Enji’s wife was carrying with her fourth child and they welcomed Inko into their home, so they could live as a family, giving Izuku his cousins to play with, now they couldn’t imagine Izuku and Shouto apart.
Inko stopped in her wonderings as she saw a teen ahead, crouched with back against a fence, a dead phone in his hand, and clear tears running down his cheeks. Inko put a hand over her heart and pulled out her own phone sending Enji a single message.
Found an emergency, see you at home.

The Endeavor Agency seemed to be an imposing building, but inside, everyone knew how soft of a hero he was. An example? The fact his nephew, only 1 and a half years of age, was toddling at his side telling him off for not keeping his paper work organised. His freckled cheeks puffed out as he looked up at Enji with an annoyed look, and Enji actually looking well scolded.
“I’ll do better, I promise. But you are a big help Izuku, my own hero.” Enji said, Izuku’s eyes lit up and he blushed happily. “I will get you a gift as a thanks.” Enji smiled.
“Really?” Izuku asked
“Yes, you are a big helper, so you deserve a gift!” Enji nodded. “And, I could use your help, Shouto’s birthday is coming up and I need to get him something. Think you can help me?”
“Yep, I can help! I’m good at helping!” Izuku asked happily.
“You give the greatest help.” Enji ruffled his curls, Izuku giggled happily. Enji smiled softly, he remembered the day Inko had told him and Rei she was expecting. His brother Hisashi had been acting weird for a week before, and then he up and left with no goodbye. Only for Inko to show up at the door, hours after he left to tell them she was expecting Hisashi’s child and how he had divorced her. Enji let Rei take charge of calming Inko down, he had stormed off to his office, Touya and Natsuo had followed him, Touya looking angry, Natsuo more curious. And he called Hisashi, who had just touched down in a different country, and Enji let him know he was never welcomed back into the family. That Inko would be with them, and his child will have the pleasure of not knowing how much of an asshole his father was. Hisashi couldn’t get a word in, but it was clear, if he ever returned, he would not be allowed near his family. Natsuo had cheered his father on, and Touya had gone off as Fuyumi took his hand saying he should make their aunt his special hot chocolate. Enji had put the phone down and sighed.
“What’s going to happen to Auntie Inko and her baby now?” Natsuo asked, Enji looked at his youngest son and smiled.
“Well, I guess she will just have to stay with us.” He said, Natsuo beamed and nodded.
Enji settled at his desk and he helped Izuku into his boosted seat, so he could also reach the desk. As Izuku sat and started on doing his own paper work. Enji frowned, knowing Izuku was “Writing him up on his bad organising skills” and he knew what that meant… but his phone went off. He picked it up.
“Oh, you’re mom isn’t going to make it on time, so you ave to stay with me for the meeting.” Enji said, Izuku frowned
“Is Mama okay?” He asked
“Oh, yes, she found an emergency, knowing your mom, it could be a litter of puppies left in a box.” Enji said
“That is an em-emagcy.” Izuku nodded. “Poor puppy.” He added with a mumble. “But, Uncle Jiji..” Izuku handed him a piece of paper. “10 minutes, in the corner.” Izuku told him, Enji sighed.
“Alright.” He nodded, knowing that he could never win against the child, went to the corner of the room and sat facing the wall, Izuku looked at the clock and smiled.
“I start time now!” Izuku said proudly. Enji sighed, he just hoped the meeting wouldn’t start whilst he was in the corner.

“Good evening All Might sir, Endeavor is waiting for you in his office.” The sectary of Endeavor’s agency welcomed the number one hero. All Might gave her a small sault and began to head up to Endeavor’s office. He pushed open the door and froze. Seeing a child at the hero’s desk, and sitting in the corner was…
“Endeavor?” He asked
“I’m on time out for another…. 5 minutes.” The number two hero muttered sadly, All Might slowly turned to the child who looked up and beamed.
“All Might! Uncle Jiji was bad and I wrote him.” he patted the paper he had used to ‘write up’ the hero. “But, meeting papers! Please sit!” the child smiled. All Might slowly sat a the desk, he noticed a small name tag on the boys All Might themed shirt, Midoriya Izuku. “Found them!” Izuku held up the paper and looked over them, the room was silent until Izuku put the papers down with a very serious expression. “This has big words.” He pushed the papers to All Might, who picked them up in turn, he took his time reading, giving Endeavor enough time to be free of his time out. He ruffled Izuku’s hair as he sat down in his seat.
“Sorry about that… Izuku was helping me sort my paper work alphabetically, its happened a few times and he wrote me up.” Endeavor exclaimed.
“Gotta be better.” Izuku patted his arm.
“Is he one of yours then?” All Might asked
“Oh goodness no, Izuku is my nephew. My brother’s son.” Enji’s expression darkened a little. “But I would ask you not to speak about him…”
“Mama and Auntie Riri says my Papa is, um, they said he was a bitch.” Izuku looked up at his uncle, Enji stared at his nephew in complete and utter horror, All Might was just frozen in his seat, he then put a hand on Enji’s shoulder.
“Good look telling his mother about this…” All Might said
“She is going to kill me…” Enji gasped, Izuku tilted his head to the side and blinked his large emerald eyes.
“Did I say something wrong?” He asked.
