Summary
“I understand better than anyone that the entrance exam isn’t fair, nothing in life is. It’ll be hell, but if you can go beyond, “plus ultra,” I think that you too can become a hero. Are you up to the task?”
Shinsou braced himself, grasping Aizawa’s hand firmly in his own.
“I won’t disappoint you, sensei.”Or: Shinsou Hitoshi, disheartened by his defeat in the Sports Festival, does everything in his power to transfer into the hero course, and maybe gets a few new contacts added to his phone along the way. The basics of heroics, learning to trust, and a copious quantity of cats. You know the drill.

Summary
Shinso Hitoshi is a pretty rule abiding kid. He keeps his head down. He minds his business. He doesn’t get too tangled in other people’s business because, really, who would want him to?
But a school where everyone hates him is pretty hard to handle. So’s dealing with the new foster family. So is keeping up the facade he has of someone who doesn’t really mind what’s going on around him.
Hitoshi turns 14, and then he runs away.

Trust is (not) easy to come by by syriala

Summary
He really needs help, Hitoshi desperately thinks, and hearing his teacher’s voice on the radio calms him down just enough to go back to his contacts.
Mic-sensei might be out, but that still leaves Aizawa-sensei. Sure, he most likely gives his number to all of his students, but he does so expecting them to call him should they need him, he insisted on that very firmly, and Hitoshi really, desperately needs someone.
or
When things with Hitoshi's foster parents escalate he comes to the realization that maybe there are already two adults in his life he can trust.

Summary
Shouta is repeatedly clenching and unclenching his hands, tension high in his shoulders and he wishes they could break out into a full on sprint. But they are not after a villain, it's not the middle of the night and they are already attracting enough attention as it is, being in their full hero outfit in a neighbourhood that usually doesn't see many heroes.
So Shouta forces himself to walk calmly and evenly but it's hard.
He knows Hizashi is struggling just as much as he is, because he's quiet at his side, worryingly so, and there is nothing Shouta can do to help, not with how high-strung he himself is.
But the fact is, Hitoshi hasn't been to school in two days, he missed Friday and Monday, and therefore two days of training as well without so much as a 'Sorry'. Neither he nor his guardians contacted Shouta or the school and they couldn't be reached either.
It's beyond worrying and exactly the reason Hizashi and he are making a house visit right now.

Summary
Hizashi tracks the lowering of Shinsou's head with some kind of amusement. It's more than apparent that the kid is absolutely exhausted—and not just the eyebags are hinting at that—and it takes him less than ten minutes to be completely asleep in Hizashi's lesson.
It's kind of a marvel, really; Hizashi's lessons are not all that quiet and for anyone to be able to sleep while he yells out English verbs is a feat in itself but also, Hizashi knows it's a huge sign of trust and he intends to be worthy of it.
