are you really still

The next day, when he finally makes it home after an extremely eventful day, after fighting a villain, after being accepted by All Might as his successor, Izuku ends up running into Naruto outside of the apartment complex.“Izuku, what are you doing coming home from school at this time of day?”Izuku meets the eyes of his neighbor, and he knows he’s standing the straightest she has probably ever seen him.“Naruto! I’m going to do it. I’m going to become a hero!”She’s surprised by his outburst obviously but once the words register she breaks out into a big smile. She puts her fist out. Izuku looks at it, then back at her, and then the outstretched fist again before bumping his own fist against hers. She chuckles a bit before tilting her head, still smiling big.
