The kitchen clock glows a faint green in the dark, casting long, thin shadows across the counter where a full plate of cold food sits forgotten. The apartment is silent except for the soft groan of the floorboards as Aizawa Shouta steps inside, his capture scarf slung loose around his shoulders, weariness carved into the lines of his face. He stops in the hallway, his eyes sharpening in the gloom as they find your silhouette framed against the window. His voice, worn rough from hours of patrol, cuts the quiet. 'Still up? You didn't touch your dinner.' He takes one slow step forward, the unsaid words between you thicker than any wall.
