Summary
He could tell when he ate the patty where it was less uniform, thicker in some places and thinner in others - he could tell that was where All Might must’ve flattened the pork by hand, unsure how much force to use. The cabbage was chopped roughly and unevenly, and as All Might said, it was indeed a little dry.
But none of that mattered to Izuku. It was food that was made for him, by his mentor, who was celebrating something. His mentor who was proud of him. That pride, that care, all came through in something as simple as a sandwich, and it made him feel full of joy.
A small collection of moments where those around Izuku show their care for him through the simple act of making food.

Summary
Izuku scrambled to return to the present moment, furiously digging through his first aid kit. He just wished his hands were a little more steady - it would make this whole process a little easier. “It’s okay, really! I know you work really hard, and this is just part of the job… I’m happy to help.”
“Yeah, pretty sure the whole world knows that by now,” Hitoshi rolled his eyes fondly, halfway between a grimace and a smile when he finally got to his shirt and managed to peel it off without wincing too badly. “Still. Doesn’t mean I shouldn’t apologize for showing up at your door a day early looking like shit. Or for making you take a look at me like this. I could’ve gone to a doctor, but…”
Hitoshi shows up at Izuku's place looking worse for wear. Izuku, of course, is happy to help take care of him.

Summary
“I’m not using their names.” Izuku’s face pinched like he sucked on a lemon. “They’re all naive morons.”
Calling somebody a moron jarred something loose in Izuku’s head. He’d never call somebody he worked with a moron, that was just rude! He felt mortified that he opened his mouth and said such a thing, and yet he felt, simultaneously, that it was entirely appropriate and something he’d say without hesitation. The new recruits were all naive morons, but he was secretly grateful for it, even if he’d never admit it. It meant people could still be naive morons, even in the middle of all this death and hate and ash.
“Yeah, but you’re still in charge of them,” his friend replied, spinning around in his chair to get a proper look at him. Despite his friend knowing why he didn’t use their names, here he was, insisting Izuku do it anyway. “They need something to look up to. You’re their biggest source of morale right now. The least you could do is bother to learn their names before we ask them to charge into the gates of hell to face the devil himself.”
Or: Izuku unlocks more than just Blackwhip during the Joint Training exercise.
