Chapter Text
When Katsuki wakes up, he is startled by strange symbols having been carved into his bedroom's wall.

"What the hell!?" Katsuki shouts as he leaps out of bed.
Near instantly, Mitsuki bursts into his room, alarmed by him shouting. "What's going on!?" She demands, before noticing the symbols that were carved into the wall. "What the hell!?"
"That's what I said!" Katsuki yells, before hearing a scratching noise under his bed. When he and Mitsuki look, they find more symbols, freshly carved into the floor.

"Seriously, what the hell is going on!?" The two yell simultaneously.
Izuku, having figured out how to manifest an avatar of himself within the abyss, cups his chin in his hand. 'They can't understand a word I say.' He thinks to himself, disappointed. 'I know that there are translators online to translate my speech and writing into english, but how do I tip them off as to do that? Can I shape my writing into shapes? I already know that I can't shape it into letters, but maybe shapes are doable.' He thinks, before turning his attention back to the cave on mars where he has been practicing his sole method of communication, and attempts to weave a random string of wing-dings symbols into the shape of the google logo, successfully doing so. With a grin, or what passes for a grin on his skull of a face, he turns his attention back to Katsuki's room, and carves into the wall behind his still open door wing-dings in the shape of the google translate logo, with multiple arrows pointing at it.
Katsuki slams his door shut and looks at the spot on his wall that it was hiding after he hears the tell-tale scratching sounds, before freezing and slamming his palm into his head.
"Hag!" He shouts at Mitsuki. "I know what's going on! I think I do, at least! Hard as fuck to believe, though!."
Mitsuki rounds on him in shock. "You do!?"
Katsuki points at the wall, where the symbols have been shaped into the google translate logo, as well as several arrows surrounding it. "The symbols carved everywhere are another language. A language that we are familiar with, from ten years ago. Deku's completely incomprehensible one. We never gave up looking, even after the cops did, and I think we just found him." He explains, before crossing his arms and calling out to nobody. "Ain't that right, Deku!?"
More scratching results on more symbols under his computer's keyboard.

Katsuki groans, before snatching his phone from his nightstand, converting the last message's wing-dings to english, and converting the english to japanese. "He says that I'm completely right. Now then, where have you been these past ten years, Skullface!? And where the hell are you now!? Also, how and why are you carving your weird-ass language into everything!?" He demands, resulting in another message, under his bed.

Katsuki blinks after translating it. "Wait, so you're still mentally 5, then?"

Katsuki narrows his eyes at the message that had been carved into the floor under his shadow. "I thought you wanted to be a hero, Deku! A hero would disregard personal gain to take down villains and help people!"
A tearing noise results in one last message appearing, this time torn into the back of his shirt.
