[Katsuki's expression softens a little at the mention of the little girl, and he looks back at the coat for a couple of quiet seconds.]
...it's around the six month mark since you got here, yeah? That's about when it kicked in for me too.
Being homesick, I mean.
[It's tough spending the holidays away from home... away from Japan. It's not like it's a HUGE deal for families to celebrate Christmas, but it's a newer tradition that's been picking up here and there. And it's also a good time to spend with friends, too. Their last Christmas back home was kind of fun, spending it in the dorms... it probably would've been even more fun, a whole year later. With stronger bonds and all.]
I dunno how long it'll take for us to get home again, but when we do? We'll buy Eri somethin' just as nice as this to make up for bein' gone.
[Izuku nods in calculating since he arrived. It seems about right.
Though, even if Japan might not make as big a thing of it, or celebrate quite the same way as in America, they still celebrate the holidays all the same. And it was strange a prospect to do so without at least his mother, if not all their friends together. Without teaching Eri about the holidays and getting to spoil her. Still, he knows it just means that they need to do what they can here. Together with their new friends. His expression softens and he smiles, nodding.]
Right! Yeah. We can get her something really nice!
