Adoption?

Kido slowly started to wake up, to see Ide looking down on him.

"What are you doing?" Kido asked.

Ide quickly ran away as he saw Kido wake up, running back to room he was sleeping in.

"Hey don't you run from me!" shouted to Ide hiding behind the door.

Ide peeking his head out of the door, with a big smile on his face.

<Cute>

<....>

*SLAP*

<What the fuck am I thinking? I have to send him to the orphanage> thought Kido, as he slapped himself in real time.

Ide looked over with shock as he saw Kido slapped himself, he ran over to Kido with worry plastered on his face.

"Are you okay?" asked Ide with worry as he placed his little hand over hand mark on Kido's face.

"I'm okay" replied Kido with a smile, as if the pain from the slap did not bother him.

<I better get him to an orphanage> thought Kido as he stood up from the couch, getting Ide and himself ready for the day.

{Then what's going to happen when he touches someone at the orphanage?} said Dämon, making Kido rethink his decision.

<Then what can I do? I don't want this kid to be involved in my lifestyle>

{Then why don't you teach him to control his quirk? Then you can send him off} suggested Dämon.

<I'll think about it> said Kido as he continued to get ready for the day with Ide.

Kido contemplated Dämon suggestion about keeping Ide, for a few hours.

Since Kido had the next few days off from his excuse, from yesterday, he decided to go shopping for more clothes for Ide.

Kido and Ide look a cab to the local mall.

"That will be ¥1,500, sir" said the cab driver, telling Kido the price.

(A/N: Approximately ₴0.25 Ukrainian Hryvnia)

Kido passed the cab driver the money in cash.

"I hope you and your son have a good day" said the cab driver, as he pulled out into the road.

Making Kido think more and more about the notion of adopting Ide as his son.

Kido and Ide went shopping for more clothing for him.

They walked all over the mall, looking for clothes. After their shopping trip was over, they stopped for ice cream, before heading to the exit of the mall.

"How was your day?" asked Kido as they were nearing the exit of the mall.

"Today was amazing! There was sooo much new things that I've never seen!" replied Ide with excitement in his voice using his arms to show it, with ice cream all over his mouth.

Kido got a tissue out, crouched down and started to wipe off the ice cream from his mouth.

The passerbys looked at Kido and Ide, with a smile on their as they looked at their 'father and son' relationship.

Kido and Ide returned to the apartment, and placed the shopping bags into the bedroom.

Kido left the apartment leaving Ide to watch cartoons on the TV.

He walked to the nearby pet shop, and purchased a couple of hamsters.

He walked back to his apartment, and entered to find Ide sleeping on the floor infront of the TV. Kido picked him up and placed gently onto the bed, before placing the hamsters carrier onto the living room table, and going to sleep him self on the couch.

Kido awoke to a child's laughter, slowly opening his eyes to find that Ide started to play with the hamsters.

"What are you doing?" asked Kido, questioning Ide, hay all over the floor as the hamsters running all over.

"Just playing with the little things" replied Ide.

Kido after thinking for a while decided to just test him now.

He thought about Dämon's suggestion of training Ide to control his powers, and send him off into the world. But Kido after some thought decided to make Ide into a world-class villain, first by desensitising him to death to accept his power, to no longer cower from his ability.

{Scum} interrupted Dämon.

<Ay I'm still going to treat him well, and give him a proper childhood> said Kido trying to justify his actions, wanting to do better than his own parents from his past life.

"Touch the hamsters with your hands" blurted Kido with no consideration for the Ide's own choices.

"B..b...but I don't want to" trembled Ide tear forming at the edge of his eyes.

"Well, I just take you to the orphanage then, do you want to leave me?" said Kido, internally angry at himself for manipulating Ide, by making Ide choice between the killing hamsters or leaving Kido.

"O..okay" replied Ide.

Kido quickly scooped up one of the hamsters from the floor and brought ii front of Ide.

Ide outstretched his trembling arm to touch the hamster, his hand slowly coming closer to the hamster.

His shaking hand finally felt the soft fur of the hamster, hamsters body immediately going limp.

"WAAAAHHHHHHHHH" cried Ide as he felt the hamster heart stop beating, kido put the hamster down and walked over to Ide and gave him a hug.

"Good job, now you can stay with me" said Kido trying to calm down Ide.

"Really" said Ide, kido wiping his tears with his sleave.

"Yeah you can, you can have some ice cream for your hardwork for today" continued Kido as he picked up Ide and brought him to the kitchen, washed his face and got an ice cream cone from the freezer.

Kido them suddenly removed the sludge mask over his face, to finally show Ide his real face.

"What do you think?" asked Kido as Ide stared at his face, as he ate his ice cream cone.

"Wow...your so pretty" said Ide in face, staring at Kido face.

"HAHAHAA thank you Ide" said Kido as he put down Ide onto the floor, ruffing up his hair.

Ide then ran off to watch some more Hero vs Villian cartoons on TV.

Kido still stumped about how hero are so integrated into everyday life, starting on the house cleaning he needed to get ahead on.

Over the course of the next few days, Kido pulled some strings in the underworld to forge some adoption papers, and used some of sludge that Dämon had thankly infused with his own power to commission someone to craft some gloves for Ide, away from the government or hero society.
