[It takes him a couple of tries-- some clicking here and there and jiggling of the door knob-- before it unlocks and she can come on in. When she does, she'll notice that the heater was up obscenely high, the two were snuggled right in front of a fireplace with a thin blanket over their shoulders, and an exhausted Izuku was wearing Katsuki's heat insulating Hero Costume.
[ She looks down on them, charmed and touched and a tiny speck jealous. She'd love nothing more than to stay with her husband and Venti, among others, and keep them warm. But this is her chance to repay some of the kindness she'd been given, to do something good for those she loves rather than inflict them with something terrible. Nothing can redeem her really, but if she can do something to take that worry off Katsuki's face, at least that's one thing she can say she did right before she hibernates. ]
All you need to do is stay with him. I'll keep you updated so you don't have to wonder how much longer. There's one ingredient in each segment, but the new teleporters are up and running so it won't take so long.
[ Saya fluffs out two of the thick blankets and tucks them over Izuku, careful not to disturb either of them. ]
[Katsuki nods, and he lifts his gaze from the cold boy to give Saya a small smile.]
I appreciate it, Saya-nee. And obviously he will too.
[It puts a lot of stress off his shoulders knowing he can just focus on Izuku, while someone else takes care of getting the necessary ingredients to save him. Though if he had to find them himself, he'd probably strap Izuku to his back like a backpack.
[ --Well it's a lot harder to be even slightly unhappy with her role in this when he says that. All Saya ever wants is to help the people she cares about, to be more than a source of pain. Here's her chance. (It's even, in some tiny way, a chance to redo what happened to Riku. To do things better, this time. To not let those who need her down.) ]
[ She reaches down to squeeze his shoulder. ] I'll be back before you know it.
Be careful. Don't do anything too stupid just for our sake.
[He has to tease a little, as he wraps the blanket tighter around the two of them. He's so thankful to have someone like Saya to rely on-- she fills the roles of his mentors, and of Pro Heroes, very well. A skilled adult who knows what to do in sticky situations, that he can rely on when he needs.
She doesn't see herself as one, but to Katsuki, Saya is one of the coolest Heroes he knows.]
[ Goodness if she could hear those thoughts she'd be horrified. Get better mentors Katsuki. ]
Please, who are you talking to? I do plenty of stupid things for my own sake.
[ With that, she takes off. All the better to get back in a hurry. She doesn't need to sleep so she'll be back in just a couple of days (exhausted and anemic but back). ]

[ It takes only slightly more than a literal minute for her to be at the door, testing the knob. Did he do it? ]

I'll give you updates if anything changes, but for now I'm just gonna make sure he's still breathing.
[He looks down at the green haired boy, worry just written all over his face.]
