[Shouto just makes a small icicle and starts prodding the soil.]

Then let's do this.

[He'll start poking at the ground.]

[inheritance]

[Izuku's content to just work quietly, only occasionally making a sound of triumph every time he manages to find something that they could use as bait.

The near-silence is a comfortable one.]

[glaciers]

[It's a good twenty minutes later before Shouto is satisfied with the amount of worms he's managed.]

Did you get enough?

[inheritance]

I think so! [He checks his bucket, and then peers into Todoroki's.]

Between the two of us, we should have enough to at least catch something. Oh, I heard there's some fish who have their color back, too. If we catch enough of those, we can cook some for ourselves.

[glaciers]

[It would be nice if he could eat a normal tasting fish. He misses that]

Really? I didn't hear anything about that. What kind of fish have color back?

[inheritance]

Umm Okumura-kun said something about cod?

It should be easy to tell the difference between the normal fish and gray fish, even if we don't know what kind it is, at least.

[glaciers]

Aren't there gray colored fish normally?

[inheritance]

There are, but they might look...different? I mean the things that are gray here look kind of dull, like their actual essence has been stolen away, not just the color. So there's gray, and then there's gray. Even if the fish we catch are gray, I think we'll be able to tell if it's got its color back or not...?

Ah. [Izuku straightens up, grinning.] I got a little carried away.

[glaciers]

[That was more thought than he ever put into fish before.]

... It's fine. I don't mind listening to you talk about things.

[inheritance]

[It's way more thought than anyone should ever put into fish, and yet here Izuku is, rambling away.]

There's not much else to say... but I guess we'll see how easy it is to tell these things apart when we've actually caught some!

[Off to the Bluo district they go!]

[glaciers]

[Off they go!]

You can talk about whatever crosses your mind.

[inheritance]

Now that you say that, I can't think of anything. [He's teasing.]

I guess I'm just thinking about how we have to work extra hard for things to eat now. We've never had to fish or hunt anything ourselves back home. Even during camp, they had the ingredients all set up already, we just had to cook them.

[glaciers]

I thought you were always thinking about heroes. [Teasing right back.]

Mm... It's a lot different foraging and fishing ourselves. I'm not sure the food tastes better like this, but it's good to have anything with taste.

[inheritance]

[Izuku's eyes light up with delight. Did Todoroki just...?] It's true, you caught me. I'm always thinking about heroes. All the time. 24/7. [It's honestly not that far off the truth, even if he's just joking.]

You said it. I think everyone's just relieved not to be eating ashy food anymore. There's not a lot of options still, but I think the more we stick around, the more color will come back.

[glaciers]

I knew it. [He's absolutely teasing his best friend.]

Having anything with taste is better than jars of fruit tasting like ash.

[inheritance]

No kidding. I'm never taking fruit or...anything for granted again.

[Those first few weeks were suffering.]

[glaciers]

Eating ash was... gross. I hated it.

[inheritance]

I guess we were lucky there was food at all, but...yeah... it was really gross..

[He's never been so reluctant to eat in his life.]

[glaciers]

At least we don't have to go back to that. Maybe we'll be able to make katsudon for you soon.

[inheritance]

[Katsudon!! It's been forever since he's had that.]

Mm at this point, I think I'd be happy just having rice at all.

[glaciers]

It's a bit different than other plants, right? It's more water than soil?

[inheritance]

Yeah...I'm not 100% sure what the process is like, but rice is grown way differently than anything we have in the garden. [You can bet that he would've looked it up already if he had the proper resources in Chroma.] We'd have to set up a whole different area for it, I think.

[Izuku laughs a little.]

It's a little funny if you think about it. We'll have all this knowledge of gardening that we didn't have before when we finally go home.

[glaciers]

[If only there was anything other than fairy tales and more fairy tales.]

We've never really had to be responsible for making our own food from the farming stage. The closest we've come is making curry that one time.

[inheritance]

Mm... even if it's not necessary, it's good knowledge to have. Who knows, maybe we'll even need it at some point!

[He snickers, suddenly.] I bet Aizawa-sensei would implement this into our studies somehow once we give him a report. As a precaution or something.

[glaciers]

I don't know how often we'll go undercover as farmers.
