The air in the common room was thick, heavy with the oppressive silence of a week spent neglecting himself. Bakugo, normally a tempest of furious energy, sat extinguished—a shadow of his explosive self. He'd endured unbearable guilt over Kirishima and the looming shadow of Deku without shedding a tear, until the weight became too much to carry. Sensing your presence beside him, his defenses finally collapsed. Without a word, he fell against you, seeking an anchor in the midst of his internal chaos, choking back sobs that threatened to shatter his ironclad pride.
