“No no no-not yamada. Please call me mic, my name is present mic.”

My honest reaction:

HELLO???

Kurogiri is not Aizawa's villain to take down

he never was, and he never will be, if for no other reason than because Horikoshi hadn't decided what to do with Kurogiri when he was first introduced.

Kurogiri and Shigaraki are the only two villains that we're introduced to at USJ who are part of the final war. because Horikoshi hasn't figured out Kurogiri yet There's nothing between Kurogiri and Aizawa. They did not recognize each other then. At all. There's nothing there. This is later confirmed at Tartarus, when Aizawa and Mic are told the truth about Shirakumo and Kurogiri.

Horikoshi likes foreshadowing. If he had intended for Kurogiri to have been Aizawa's childhood friend from the start, there would have been some sort of hint of it back then. Okay, so then when did he decide on Kurogiri's origins? Probably by the time we got the remedial training arc, because that's the first time we really get Mic as a character. Granted, we don't get a whole lot of insight into him, because he's not the focus of the plot. But we do get some glimpses of who he is. He's smart and sarcastic and weird and doesn't seem to like conflict or at least awkward conversations and most importantly Aizawa trusts him.

Mic is Aizawa's other childhood friend, of course he trusts him- No. It's not just that. Here's the thing. Mic and Aizawa and Shirakumo are so intrinsically tied together that when we first learn of Shirakumo-through their memories-they are both present in each other's memories with Shirakumo.

Mic had to be allowed to become a full character because he was going to be part of Kurogiri's story.

I would almost make an argument that Kurogiri is more Mic's villain than Aizawa's even. Okay? Remember how I said Kurogiri doesn't recognize Aizawa? He recognizes Mic. Or at least according to Garaki he does. He confirms that they were after Erasure, so if they were watching Aizawa back when he was a student, they should know that all three of them were friends, right? But he refers to Mic as Kurogiri's friend. Present tense. Kurogiri still knows who Mic is.

And this was confirmed back in Tartarus when they first confront Kurogiri too. This time Kurogiri recognizes them both (he only indicates that he knows Aizawa from USJ btw). Aizawa starts talking to Shirakumo, who tries responding, but he's not able to actually break through until Mic also calls out to him.

Aizawa's never able to reach Shirakumo alone. He confirms that he kept trying while they were both at central hospital, but was never able to get a response. If Kurogiri was solely Aizawa's villain, then he would have been able to get through to him then. Shirakumo would have been the heroes secret ace in the hole during the final war, there would be no need for Monoma to have learned to use warp gate. There would have been no reason to use Mic as an actual character. There would have been no reason for Aizawa to ask Mic to be at the hospital. Because again, Aizawa trusts Mic. He knows he's not able to reach Shirakumo alone and is hoping Mic can.

And he's not wrong. When it comes down to it, and Kurogiri wakes up, there's a part of Shirakumo fighting for control too. Because Mic called out to him.

Kurogiri is not Aizawa's villain. He is, at the very least, both Mic and Aizawa's villain (and maybe it's just me projecting as a Mic fan, but I'm almost inclined to believe Mic is going to play a bigger role than Aizawa in this plot) But the last time we saw any of the three of them, they were together, so we'll just have to wait and see how this plays out for them.

Mic is attached to Aizawa, whether its healthy or not-there's no denying that. In the final war arc, Aizawa is almost entirely all that Mic thinks about. In chapter 372, he makes the move to help out Shoji and Koda, because he is reminded of Aizawa telling him to do so. When he is rushing to wake up Shirakumo, his only thought is 'Our pal's already lost an eye and a leg. Don't go ripping away those good memories from him too', once again disregarding himself in favour of Aizawa. Yet again, he acts extremely impulsively for Aizawa-after he is knocked off of the Viewing Isle, Mic jumps after him. I believe when he jumped, Kurogiri's portal wasn't open beneath them, and therefore Mic was fully ready to die for Aizawa. pretty sure in one's justice 2, Aizawa says to Mic 'you haven't changed in all these years' it's pretty obvious to us, the reader, that Mic has changed immensely, but not to Aizawa because Mic actively avoids showing vulnerability to him.

He does no wrong.

(I want more people defending him, come on present mic nation🔥)

My therapy is drawing erasermic in the midwest emo universe 🤞🏻

I LIVE for dadmic.

‼️Credits go to this person‼️

I wish Shouta was a better friend. I know he loves and cares for hizashi a lot but I wish he’d show it, it’s actually annoying and makes me lowkey dislike Shoutas character a bit. Hizashi deserves better. 😕

Forever hating mha for just brushing off nemuri’s death, like bro I wish we atleast saw mics and Shoutas reaction. They must of been so angry, especially hizashi. But fr in general I just wish we got more on nemuri’s death and just more of nemuri in general, it’s annoying. She deserved better.

Present Mic deserved more screentime. He's such a fascinating character with such an amazing skill. Like the genuine damage he could do if he wasn't so devoted and dedicated to being Present Mic and not Hizashi.

Let my man lose his shit. Let him grieve. Let him feel everything that he is bottling up and let us see the damage he causes because he finally allows himself to feel. Show us Hizashi being Hizashi and not holding onto a persona

I've got the biggest crush on present mic 🔥🔥

Nemuri Kayama, NOBODY can made me hate u.

When I say “no one can make me hate present mic” I mean that. I mean NO ONE. Can make me hate present mic.

Based on the way Touya and Fuyumi behaved in their very early years, I've always gotten the impression the Todoroki family started out with something of a healthy dynamic.

The reason they were born was pretty twisted and Endeavor's ambitions may have made the foundation rotten, but I think they were 'fine' until the genetic disparity with Touya's Quirk was detected. What's sad about that is if Touya didn't have that issue, he and Fuyumi would probably have been the only two siblings. Endeavor wanted Touya for a successor. Rei wanted Fuyumi so that Touya would have a sibling and they could support each other.

Natsuo and Shouto were born because Endeavor's ambitions meant more to him than his family.

And tragically, Touya and Fuyumi are the only two kids in that family who can remember this happy life. It's why Fuyumi was so desperate to get it back, and in his own warped way, Touya also tried to reclaim it.

Here's the thing that gets me, though:

It is very common and normal for a toddler to prefer one parent over the other. Usually, it's the parent they're the most family with: The one that stays home with and takes care of them.

Remember, to a toddler, everything is new and potentially scary, and that can often include a parent that is not always present: The parent that's working.

In the Todoroki house, Endeavor had his career as a hero, so we have the indication that Rei was the parent who stayed home. In that situation, the probability of Rei being the 'familiar parent' was more likely, so for Touya to prefer his father over his mother shows just how close he was to Endeavor. That probably happened because 1.) we can see Endeavor started training him at a very young age, and 2.) Fuyumi was the new baby and probably needed more attention from their mother, so Touya may have gravitated away from Rei on his own and went to his father instead.

Touya didn't see his father's ambitions for him. He didn't see that he was a successor as opposed to a son. What he, a child, saw and understood was that his father loved him and wanted to spend time with him. After the genetic disparity was detected and that pride and affection disappeared, he didn't know how to cope.

In contrast, Natsuo and Shouto never even saw the family happy. Natsuo was three-four years old when this happened. Fuyumi looks devastated that things aren't her version of normal. Natsuo just looks confused because, again, everything is new to toddlers. This was the normal he grew up with. Touya attacking Shouto might be one of his first memories, so he never stood a chance and that is why he left home the moment he had the opportunity.

It also explains his lack of understanding for Fuyumi's hope for a normal family. Fuyumi's mindset runs as, "We had that once. It's possible to have it again." Which in its own way, expecting things can just return to the way they were is a little disrespectful to her brother that died, and I think Touya's reappearance did shatter her illusion since she never brings up 'being a real family' after Dabi's Dance.

The point is, since Natsuo never saw what Fuyumi and Touya saw, he can't see what she wants to return to, so her decision to forgive their father is one he can't comprehend.

And if Natsuo can't remember the happy family, then there's no way Shouto does because this is what their home looked like by the time he was old enough to start forming concrete memories.

We're looking at two different sets of children, the older pair and the younger pair, who started out with very different childhoods.

Y'all mind if I talk about Present Mic's quirk for a second? Great.

So, my partner and I have been having Erasermic brainrot lately, and while we were binging content with them, I became interested in Hizashi's voice quirk. I began searching stuff about how sound/volume works, and linking it to his canon stuff.

I'll just say, the info I found makes him a pretty scary guy. It's a shame he's so underused in both canon and fanon.

Frequency

First of all, I want to talk about something everyone knows about him: his quirk is potent enough to shatter glass. Now, when it comes to decibels, it's always important to consider the time and distance a certain note is held for, since these can impact the "hit" a certain sound wave can have when influenced by effects such as the air or vibrations.

(Please keep this in mind for the reminder of this post)

When it comes to glass, however, it breaks almost instantly under the pressure of his voice. Our most constant example of this is the man's poor lenses, but there is a scene I'd like to talk about the most, it being he one where he completely shatters Shigaraki's tank.

One might argue that the glass was already weakened from Mirko's kicks, but that's honestly part of something that makes this so impressive to me; Mirko's legs are strong enough to straight-up rip a high-end Nomu's head clean off, yet this tank was tough enough to withstand two attacks from her - including her ultimate move - before starting to leak; and the fact she was heavily injured doesn't fly here, as we very clearly could see she wasn't holding back one bit.

Now, let's get technical.

According to Google, a normal tone of voice would be around 50 decibels, while the required to shatter glass would be a minimum of 105. For comparison, that's roughly the same volume as a jackhammer. Now, you might be thinking, "Oh, that's not so bad! Some singers can do that!" and you'd be right, but there's also some other things to consider. Allow me to explain.

Some singers can reach a pitch that can make glass vibrate enough for it to break, but I've personally only heard of this happening if the person has their mouth close to a smaller, empty cup, and even then the volume would be distributed around. Hizashi, on the other hand, was standing several feet away from this reinforced tank and was able to shatter it immediately, using the directional speaker around his neck to aim the volume. This would naturally require for him to hit even higher decibels, specially when you take into consideration that one's frequency must match the glass' for it to vibrate, which drastically increases when it's dampened. (Read next topic for more info on this)

And then there's his glasses which, like I've stated before, are the most common thing he breaks with his voice. Obviously, this is not directed and it's not a total shatter, but there is something to be observed; say, did you know the necessary volume for lenses to crack, when not being directly aimed at, would be that of a nearby shot from a highcaliber gun? That's roughly 140-170 decibels.

Harm factor

Boy, oh boy! I'm betting most of you were looking for this part when you clicked the read more, right? Look no further, I've got you covered, you just better remember what I mentioned before about distance and duration.

Hizashi's parents were unfortunate enough to have a mutant child that was born with his quirk already active, and I'm willing to bet a newborn doesn't have the slightest bit of control over a power as destructive as a sonic-powered voice, which immediately resulted in everyone in the room bleeding from the ears.

Sound-related ear bleeding is most commonly associated with a ruptured eardrum, which can happen at around 150 decibels and is about the same as a jet engine taking off. While a baby most likely unleashed his maximum voice power on the first breath, I believe something like that would, thankfully, only develop fully after puberty, just like with non-powered people like us, since his quirk is a drastic intensification of a common function and not a new ability altogether.

With that being said... The Finals Exam.

In this, Hizashi was standing very far and, even with the directional speakers, there were many obstacles in the way that kept him from landing direct soundwaves on the students. Regardless, Jirou's ears bled in less than 30 minutes being exposed to this.

This could have happened due to the fact that she has a hearing quirk, which would make hers much more sensitive, but let's study this, shall we? We don't have the exacts of what happened there, but the students are visibly uncomfortable upon the first soundwave, which would suggest it was at about 120 decibels upon impact (with 85 already being enough to cause damage to your ears) and being emitted even higher by him, considering distance muffles volume. Still, I think all that would be nothing compared to the scream he let out after those bugs started crawling on him, with how unfiltered that was.

With Jirou, it comes to no surprise this volume at this distance and time almost rendered her deaf, and realistically would take several months of healing time. How much do you want to bet Hizashi got a solid scolding from Shouta? I mean, it was supposed to be a challenge, but homeboy came this close to breaking her quirk.

Another thing I want to point out is that his voice is powerful enough to actually fucking launch people, and this only happens due to an event called acoustic trauma, basically meaning Hizashi can surpass supersonic levels. Although, it's important to note that this effect is caused mostly due to pressure and not so much as sound, so while it's not freakishly loud (about the same as thunder), it can still cause hearing and psychological damage.

! WARNING !

The following part contains graphic mentions of injury, and death. Do not proceed if these are sensitive topics for you.

Now, we look at the disturbing side of Hizashi's quirk. Buckle in, because it's a wild ride.

Remember what I commented earlier, about him having to hit even higher frequencies to be able to shatter Shigaraki's tank? First of all, as the doctor was sent flying, this qualifies as supersonic, but that's not all. To shatter such a protected tank, with liquid inside increasing the density, he'd have to hit over 200 decibels; which is considered extremely dangerous and most definitely fatal, as the threshold of pain is of 115-140 - this can cause damage such as crushed ear bones, ruptured lungs, or embolism. For comparison, this would come close to standing right next to a Saturn V Moon Rocket during launch, and is no longer considered a "sound" due to the vacuum.

With that being said, the man came very close to dying by Hizashi's hands (voice?) twice. Not only was he so close during the lens incident, literally being inches away from his face and in risk of getting his eardrums ruptured already, but if Mic had decided to raise his voice even more during his rage, it'd be possible for the frequency to make the doctor's inner organs malfunction, or straight-up burst from the pressure.

But that's not the worst part.

After establishing that the lethal amount of over 200 decibels would be necessary to shatter the tank given the circumstances, if he exceeded 240 and the doctor happened to be in the way of this, it would be enough to cause his head to explode upon impact. That old man better be grateful that he was standing a feet few away, and that the supersonic blast blew him away a bit more, or it'd be an immediate game over.

With all this being said, how devastating would it be for this guy to scream his rage out?

(Please keep in mind that many of the extreme cases in this are actually impossible to happen in a real-life scenario and are purely speculation!)

aizawa canonically tap dances so…

i hc that he taught his entire family. hizashi, hitoshi, and eri. it started with just eri, then bled into hitoshi, and hizashi felt left out. now ever saturday they set aside an hr to tap dance lmao

And they have been together ever since (canon and real)

You know what scene I still think about a lot? The conversation with Garaki and Mic.

Well, it's less of a conversation and more Garaki infodumping to cause as much emotional damage as possible before he gets his ass thrown in jail.

Still, all of the information we ever get surrounding nomu and Kurogiri specifically is so chilling. And if you've read the School Days arc in Vigilantes it's WORSE.

In Vigilantes, Oboro's death is framed by the narrative as an accident, a tragedy that comes as a result of educators and the government being too eager to throw prospective hero students into the world and out of their depth (wow I wonder where I've heard that scenario before). Shirakumo and Aizawa are in a fight they are not equipped to handle, and Shirakumo pays the price by protecting others over himself. He didn't do anything "wrong" for this to happen, but it happened anyway because the world doesn't care if you were in the right or not when it snuffs you out.

This isn't just a tragic backstory for Kurogiri, it frames Aizawa's entire mindset as he grows into an adult. His beliefs and unorthodox teaching methods come as a result of what he took away from thet tragedy. He emphasizes the unfairness of the world on the first day of class. He refuses to coddle his students. He's against the first years taking work studies. He fully intends to expel students who will not take this training or their own well being seriously because if he lets them stay, they're the next Shirakumo.

And then there's Garaki, all too happy to bring up Oboro to Mic as he's dragging his fat ass out of the lab. Because, you know, fun fact, that attack wasn't a coincidence at all. No bad luck, no wrong place wrong time, because that little work study team was All For One's target. He wanted a new quirk in his repertoire. It's just a shame that they got the wrong one. That erasure quirk would've been so useful. But, you gotta work with what life gives you, right?

Not only did that attack fundamentally change Aizawa as a person, but it was meant to kill him in Oboro's stead. And now Mic knows this. He knows that his best friend died in a deliberate attack to kill his other best friend. And with Midnight biting it not long after this, Mic has lost the last person chillingly aware of what happened to Shirakumo. The last person he would ever be able to tell outside of Aizawa himself. Mic has to sit there and mourn his coworker in Aizawa's hospital room, fully aware that Aizawa saw the lifeless body if their best friend because the intentional, avoidable attack killed the wrong person.

There's no way that Mic isn't aware of how Aizawa's behavior changed between becoming a student and becoming a teacher. He knows him too intimately to not see the difference, the callousness that grew from such a brutal life lesson, the hope that died in his eyes when faced with reality. But he can't say a word, not to him. He can't tell Aizawa that Oboro's death and Kurogiri's creation only came about because the target was on Aizawa's head. But he's forced to know that, carrying that forbidden knowledge to his grave in the hope Shouta never finds out.

“. . . It would have been much easier to live in this world ” .

drew this helpful diagram for mha fans who don't understand what a character arc is

Okay, so a few posts back I suggested that there could be a parallel between Oboro and Sensoji and the way they might have noticed Hizashi's loneliness. If you haven't read my other recent posts about the 3 baka, Hizashi alone, or Hizashi and Sensoji, those are recommended, but I'll try to sum up the important parts here.

Here's what you need to know:

the 3 Baka were inseparable, to the point that their classmates probably saw them as a single unit rather than 3 individuals.

With Shouta and Oboro having their internships together, they were able to grow together, inadvertently excluding Hizashi.

Hizashi was paired up with Sensoji, who seems comfortable diminishing and excluding him.

This all leads to a mock battle between the four of them, with Oboro and Shouta on one side and Hizashi and Sensoji on the other, with all three of them ignoring Hizashi, communicating that his presence was unnecessary and unwanted. Hizashi's probably incredibly lonely during this time. Sensoji doesn't care. Shouta's too caught up in his own head to notice. But Oboro does. Because the next thing we see is that Hizashi's been given his own pair of goggles, and Oboro is suggesting the three of them start their own agency.

It's not just Shouta's insecurities that prompt Oboro to suggest their agency. It's Hizashi's loneliness.

But then Oboro dies.

Oboro dies and Hizashi is spending more of his energy on protecting Shouta than processing his own grief and Shouta doesn't want to see how much he's hurting and his classmates don't know how to look past the front he's putting up and there's nobody left to realize he's alone again.

Except Sensoji's already seen Hizashi apart from Shouta and Oboro. He's probably the only person in the school who's seen any of the 3 Baka without the others. He knows how much Hizashi loved his friends. How much of his identity was in being their friend. And how that's all gone now. Sensoji's the only one with the proper perspective to see how alone Hizashi is now.

I think there could be an interesting parallel between Oboro being the first one to notice how lonely Hizashi must have been at Buster Union and Sensoji probably being the only one to realize how alone Hizashi really was after Oboro died

Why I think Hizashi could have been more fucked up by Oboro's death

To start with, his life started with his quirk hurting other people. Whether you subscribe to the headcanon that he was orphaned because of that or not, it's definitely the kind of thing that would fuck somebody up. But despite his powerful, dangerous, terrifying quirk, he still gets into The hero school, where he can use it to help people instead.

And then instead it's taken from him, twisted around, and used in the attack that kills his best friend. Maybe he didn't deal the killing blow himself, but he followed an order that he should have second guessed. He wasn't there with his friends to help them. He's part of the reason that Oboro is dead. He can't even allow himself to grieve then because his quirk had already done enough damage. And that's going to fuck him up even more.

So now there's Shouta. He's obviously fucked up by this. He was right there and couldn't stop anything. He didn't even realize Oboro was dead until after it was all over. We're clearly shown that he's fucked up by this. But. Oboro's death also motivates him to become a better, stronger hero. Is he coping well? No. But his poor coping mechanisms seem to be entirely self contained.

And Hizashi? Shouta is Hizashi's coping mechanism. We see that he's dedicated himself to making sure Shouta's okay, trying to pull him back into things. But he's also build up a wall around himself that he only lets down around Shouta. Except Shouta doesn't even see it. He's just...shut everything that could hurt him out. Including Hizashi.

The last thing we see of them is Shouta erasing Hizashi's quirk. And then we're not even shown if Hizashi is around Shouta in the first few years after graduation. Shouta spent the rest of his time at UA learning to be self reliant and cementing the idea that he was better off on his own.

But Hizashi's ability to cope seems to have been entirely dependent on Shouta's presence. And he lost him too. And that had to have fucked him up even more.

Not that any of you asked, but I think Hizashi could have been more fucked up over Oboro's death than Shouta was.

Proud dad🍻

Anon that said Mic is attractive with fanart, with his hair and glasses down.

(Note I don't know how this may turn out. If it sounds like I'm anger. It's not to you it's at other people. I promise)

I agree with you. I think he is really attractive, but a majority if the fans, it's feels like, don't agree with us.

I once was talking to my friends about how I thought Mic's was really good looking in the new leaks(this is when the Mic suit leaks came out) and they told me "But Aizawa is hotter" Orr "No" and repeatedly shut me down. I had to agree with them, just for them to hear me out. Then told me more or less that I was wrong.

So I agree with you, Mic is attractive, but people don't care, and will hold him more accountable to the shit he does, then someone like Aizawa.

I don't think that it's fans not agreeing that present mic is good looking but more of fans developing a tunnel type vision so whenever present mic is brought up aizawa would eventually be brought up into the conversation it's rarely vice versa though. I do very much think that this is because mic as a character barely has any screentime to himself and is usually used to prop up aizawa instead of being an independent character.

Yeah mic looks really good in the suit and he is slept on in chapter 425.

However, I would go as far as to say that the criticism that mic gets is actually unfair.

1) he got criticism for his reaction to finding out about yuuga being the traitor but after all the traitor put everyone in danger and literally indirectly caused the death of midnight and aizawa getting injured in the usj. Present mic at the time also didn't know yuuga's situation and he still had 100% right to be angry

2) he got criticism for calling out bakugo in the sports festival but he was valid for doing that. Bakugo was being harsh and incredibly aggressive

3) he got criticism for him not accepting that oboro is kurogiri but present mic unlike aizawa never got time to process and heal from the trauma he simply shoved it down he cracked and even then it was extremely valid and understandable where he came from

4) the way he attacked Dr garaki was yes indeed violent and he shouldn't of done it as a hero but you bet I would be out for blood if some creepy doctor turned my friend into a nomu ending his life while that doctor has a bloody immortality quirk.

Also, even if characters are thought to be hot/good looking sometimes it even back fires because not only does it sometimes make people forget about the characters actions but it also makes people just focus on that one quality, sexualise the character and sometimes even forget about the characters purpose or proper role in the story.

Present mic is such a girl dad, I wish we got more dadmic.

Idc what anyone says, uraraka, jirou and Eri are his daughters.(added Eri because I’m pretty sure it’s canon that mic looked after her whilst aizawa was in the hospital)

Anything on this blog about Mic will only ever be dedicated to Mic. I love Aizawa but damn fandom won’t let the funny bird man DJ stand on his own two feet. You mention Mic and suddenly people are like ‘Aizawa this Aizawa that’ and I just don’t give a shit, man. If I go searching for or get recommended anything with Mic, I’d say a good 98% of it all is tied to Aizawa in some way. Hell if people find out Mic is my favorite character, their first instinct is to ask me ‘Do you ship him with Aizawa??’ It’s really fucking sad.

Don’t get me wrong. I love tf outta Aizawa. There’s so much I relate to with him that fandom often forcibly changes and throws out for the sake of horniness and shipping and that alone makes me feel really depressed and isolated and broken in these spaces. Man was my favorite character in MHA until Mic threw himself out in front of him. I also love tf out of Shirakumo and the 3 baka dynamic. Yet strangely, a lot of fandom seems to love pretending Shirakumo never existed to begin with. Wonder why…

If Hori decides to write them to be together. Great man, I support it. I trust Hori’s writing, but fandom’s… Not so much. But with rare exceptions I don’t care all that much about shipping in general especially when it involves a character who doesn’t seem to indicate or give a shit about anything romantic to begin with. I hate ‘will they won’t they’ shit so much.

People can think about Aizawa as his own character and depth that has no involvement with Mic. Mic though? Everyone forces everything about Mic to revolve around Aizawa and I’m so tired of it.

Let Mic be Mic. Let him have his own spotlight without having to live in Aizawa’s shadow 24/7.

Y’know, a lot of people think that Aizawa wouldn’t want Midoriya to become a teacher so he can “have some peace”, but honestly, after everything that happened in the war, I think he’d enjoy having someone from 1A around. He cares so much for those kids. Now he can only watch them be heroes through a TV screen. At least having one nearby to check on, maybe share lunch with, grade papers, and talk about the new generations of heroes together.

And think about it. They both had a highly sought after quirk that they both lost in the war. Aizawa’s really the only person at UA who knows exactly what that’s like.

Midoriya would also help with anything involving Eri. Need someone to make food for after band practice? Got it. Need someone to take you to competition? Absolutely. The two are unstoppable together.

And honestly, I think Aizawa sees Shirakumo in Midoriya. He sees a dream that was taken too quickly. He asks Midoriya if he’s lonely, because he knows how painful it is to be separated from his friends. He may still put up a gruff exterior, but I think he really wants Midoriya to do his best, take pride in his work now.

I headcanon he put in the recommendation for Midoriya to come teach. Just like Nemuri did for him.
