  Summary

  "What happened, Yamada?"
  Hizashi felt the air catch in his lungs. He blinked, shook his head lightly, as if that would somehow clear the confusion at the question. Years, literally years of no contact, nothing at all since the day they'd graduated, and now - this. He didn't know what to do with this. What to make of it.
  "I have no idea what you're talking about. And... you kinda relinquished any right to ask when you cut me out of your life."

  About four years after their graduation from UA, Aizawa Shouta and Yamada Hizashi are both active as heroes. After Yamada gets captured during a fight, they cross paths again. As might be expected, there is a lot to talk about - and neither man knows where to start.
