there was only so much stress a person’s body could endure in silence before it reached a culmination , revealing itself through shadowed under - eyes & colorless skin , sunken features & bloodshot optics . with so much going on these days , it was no wonder the erasure hero was looking a bit worse for wear . though , aizawa was quick to DISMISS his current condition —— after all , if he could not rise to meet the responsibilities placed upon his shoulders , then what sort of a HERO would he be ? supplementary classes to teach , U.A. faculty meetings to attend , & now he’d agreed to meet with the SYMBOL OF PEACE himself to assist with his lesson - planning for class ( or , more accurately , his LACK THEREOF ) . there was always work to be done .
aizawa responds to the hero’s words with a beat of silence . crimson hues fixate on the steam rising from dark liquid ( coffee , plain & BLACK —— the way he preferred ) . hands wrap around the mug , instantly greeted by warm ceramic against calloused palms . amidst his sleep - deprived HAZE , the aroma of bitter dark roast was REASSURING ( he greatly appreciated the gesture —— though , his own introverted nature prevented him from expressing so ALOUD ) .
❛ —— thanks . ❜
