@x-explosivebroccoli-x asked:

"Izuku's mine."

[Unprompted. || Accepting!]

"Young man, I understand that you're dating my son...but please, try to phrase it in a better way..." He doubted the blond would willingly deal with his own tone- but what a strange way to state he was dating young Midoriya.

@x-explosivebroccoli-x asked:

"Dad. I-I think that you should see a doctor or something. You're always in pain. I can tell."

[Unprompted? || Accepting!]

"It's alright, kid!" He raised a hand, ruffling Izuku's hair with a small laugh. "It'll take more than a few stabs of fire to keep this old man down.- Don't worry!" There was also the fact that he'd already been to plenty...and the answer was usually the same: another surgery (which only served to hold off the pain for a day or so thanks to the meds he was given beforehand) and pain meds...most of which he couldn't take, for fear of how they would affect his Hero work.

He didn't have a defense for that. Bakugo was right.- Yagi had given his entire life to the public. He hadn't spared hardly anything for his own son.

He hadn't even been honest until recently.

"That's hard to believe, given young Bakugo has been giving me the third degree about how you've been feeling lately." He gestured lightly to Bakugo. "...son,....would you be willing to tell me what's really going on?...you don't have to do it right now, if you're still hurting from yesterday, but..." He trailed off.

Katsuki just stood there glaring at him before the glare faded and he spoke. "Listen. Izuku loves you." He said before facing away from Toshi. "But he feels like you don't love him. He wanted to spend more time with you and he wanted to confide in you but how could he? How could he if you were never fucking around him?!"

Suddenly Katsuki's loud voice woke up Izuku he was asleep in his room after being injured from a previous fight from the day before. He was still recovering but was wondering what went on downstairs. Izuku forced himself up from his bed and winced in pain as he headed to the steps and glanced downstairs and saw Bakugou with his father.

Katsuki looked up once he saw Izuku's weary face. "About time you woke up. How are you feeling?" Izuku just blinked at the sight of the two before speaking. "I- I'm fine." He then looked away.

The blond was silent for a few moments, exhaling softly- trying not to let it show that Bakugo had essentially poured lemon juice into festering gouges in his thoughts.

"....I do care about young Midoriya." But he couldn't just explain. Unless the kid told Bakugo, all the young boy would know was that he was All Might's personal agent- which meant that he didn't have anywhere near as important a job as he truly did. He was always working...always. And when he'd tried to talk to Izuku as of late, the kid had seemed...well- not alright at first, but he'd slowly gotten better....and now...

Well, it would explain the strange calmness his son had had for a few days now.

He didn't trust Toshinori enough- didn't think he cared enough- to try to confide in his own father. That was Yagi's guess- and it only served to further the injuries. He rubbed at his temple for a moment, trying to calm his thoughts.

"I've tried to tell him he could talk to me, but he hasn't. And that- even if it hurts- is his choice." And he wouldn't dare force young Midoriya to do anything he didn't want to. Far from it. "I'm glad that he can confide in you, young Bakugo.- Very glad." He took a step forward, eyes faintly narrowed. "...but if he does not wish to share this with me himself, then there is nothing I can do about it, save offer what little support he'll let me give."

He'd probably speak with Izuku about this later- but how to tread on a topic such as this? He couldn't cut back hours- but he couldn't wouldn't abandon Izuku, either.

He sighed quietly.

"...I suppose the only reason you brought this to my attention was because young Midoriya has refused to bring it up, himself." He half-wondered if young Bakugo would just take this opportunity to attempt to lecture him more about being a failure of a father. It wouldn't surprise him, given his connection to young Midoriya...but it wasn't like he could mention why he wasn't around.

Why Midoriya had been crying lately in the first place.

Had he broken his son's faith in Heroes that badly?

".....You have no fucking idea do you?" Katsuki shouted. "Izuku comes to ME for everything. He tells me everything. He's been through so damn much and you don't realize it." He said as he glared at him. "He comes to me crying everyday because you're always busy. You never see how lonely he gets. He acts upset all the time." Katsuki crossed his arms. "At this point why do you even care about him when you're never here? You don't KNOW anything about him."
