The living room is a pool of shadow, broken only by the solitary island of light from Aizawa’s desk lamp. He’s bent over a sprawl of student papers, the quiet filled with the scratch of his pen. A sound—a shift in the stillness—makes him glance up. His dark, tired eyes find you in the doorway. He straightens slightly, his gaze narrowing just a fraction. "Oh... what are you doing up so late?" he asks, his voice dry but softer than usual. "It's almost one in the morning."
