Mutual Trust:
Being heroes, trust is a must between them.
Eraserhead and Ms. Joke’s respective agencies were nearby one another, and they would at times come across the same paths during patrols. Along with doing working in teams whenever the occasion calls for it. In that time, they started to develop a mutual trust.
Sure, Eraserhead grew tried and right down annoyed with Joke’s constant jokes, along with all the marriage proposals. Even with all the jokes, he knew the smiling hero takes her job seriously and that’s all he needs. He has her back and she has his. In this line of work, you need to trust the people who you fight with.
Showing your real, true selves:
Aizawa knew that Emi wasn’t much of a jokester outside her hero costume. More so when he ends up at her front door, knocking on said door waiting for an answer. He had visited the apartment only once, that was due to the fact that it was horrible weather and she insisted he stayed here until the storm blew over. That was a onetime thing and she still won’t shut up about it.
“What is it? Don’t you know it’s seven in the morning…” Emi opened the door groggily, rubbing her eyes. Dressed in a pair of sweats and her hair uncombed. Getting rid of the sleep out of her eyes, she raised an eyebrow at Aizawa once she lowered down her arm. “What? I’m on break. Can’t a girl sleep in? If you want a joke, wait till I get my coffee.”
Always encouraging each other.
“Here.”
Aizawa slowly looked up to see a coffee can a couple of inches away from his face. He looked around said can, to see Emi stand above him, also dressed in her civilian clothing. Instead of her typical smile, she carries a worried one. Reaching up to take the can, he offered Emi to sit next across of him. “How’d you find me?”
“You always come here whenever something big happens.” Emi replied. “…I heard about what happened the other day. How are you holding up?”
“… Like garbage.”
“Then I’m the garbage collector! I’m here to pick you right up!” Emi tried to laugh at her own joke, but it fell flat. Her eyes widened when she saw Aizawa’s lips quirk just a bit.
Ability to make each other laugh… always.
Hizashi couldn’t understand it. He really doesn’t understand what he’s seeing in front of him. There’s Aizawa laughing with some random woman he hasn’t seen before! He’s laughing!
How???
WHO IS SHE?????
“Shouta! There you are!” Hizashi called out to his friend, running over to him and this random woman.
All sign of laughter gone, Aizawa turned around to see the loud rambunctious running towards him.
“Hey, is that Present Mic?” Emi asked, pulling on her friend’s sleeve. “Your best friend?”
“Unfortunately, enough.” Aizawa grumbled under his breath, not even flinching when Hizashi flung himself onto him. “What?”
“Who’s this? Your girlfriend or something?” Hizashi grinned at his friend.
“I’m his future wife/We work together.”
…
…
“We work together/Apparently her future husband.”
It’s about us, not just myself.
They started to stay at each other apartments after patrols. After long and tiring patrols, the other’s apartment would be too far away to get to. As time went by, they started to just pop up at the other’s apartment or not ask other if they wanted to drop by. As time went by, they both took note how they have been staying at Emi’s apartment often compared to Aizawa’s own apartment.
It had them wondering, should they just move into the other’s apartment?
That seems logical. They were already acting like roommates as it is. Just that they both have their own apartments… but at times, they prefer to be alone at times. Maybe in the future they’ll share a home.
Maybe.
Accepting each other’s flaws.
Despite what many would say, Eraserhead is the one that has a soft spot for kids.
When Eraserhead and Ms. Joke saved Hitoshi Shinso, they knew they couldn’t leave him alone. More so after finding out about his quirk. They knew he wouldn’t make it far into the system with how broken it is. There would have been a massive chance the kid would get mistreated, and they weren’t going to allow that.
Should they have gotten so involved in the case? Many would have considered it a flaw. You can’t save everyone. But damn… they are going to do everything they could to save as many as they could.
Paying attention to small details.
Affection. Emi never would have thought that Shouta Aizawa has a thing for physical affection. At first, she didn’t seem to notice it at first before someone (Hizashi) pointed it out to her. Aizawa would run his hands through her hair whenever her bandanna comes loose. Hold her hand tightly when they are walking in crowded areas. Running his thumb across her knuckles.
Then it shifted when after he moved to a new city to start a teaching career.
Aizawa started to hug Emi, resting his head against her shoulder. Then cuddling as they watch a movie or some random soap opera. The random dances in her apartment whenever she has the radio on.
Details she never took notice before and it has her mind running a thousand mind a minute.
---
Blush. Aizawa started to take note how Emi would start to become shyer around him. If he would question it, she would laugh it off as she usually did whenever she wanted to avoid certain subjects. It mostly happens when they are alone, by themselves. She will still make jokes here and there, but at least it’s not life consuming.
Even if he doesn’t laugh at her jokes, he does enjoy them. There was something about her smile that made his heart skip a beat.
Knowing how each other tick.
“STOP TAKING ALL MY COFFEE!”
“For the love of… it’s Hitoshi! He’s the one taking all your coffee.”
“He doesn’t like the stuff I have stashed above the fridge.”
“… Well then…”
Leaving the past behind.
“What do you mean by that? You being my future husband?” Emi asked, genuinely confused by Aizawa’s look of growing confusion. “We need to go on dates and see if we are compatible to even get married first, Silly Eraser~”
“…Emi Fukukado… we’ve been dating for the last couple of years…”
“We have?!? Why didn’t you tell me!”
Aizawa step close to Emi, he slowly reached up to brush a strand of her hair out of her face and pushed it behind her ear. Her entire face turn into a lovely shade of red that has him chuckle in amusement. “Cat got your tongue.”
“I don’t know, why don’t you check?”
Seeing a future together.
“I only have a punchline today! I’m pregnant!”
