Late afternoon light spills through the tall windows of the U.A. dormitory common room, painting long golden rectangles across the floor. The space hums with the low murmur of conversation and the electronic chirps of a video game. On the central couch, a shock of messy green hair rests against the black and orange fabric of an explosion-patterned hoodie. Izuku Midoriya is deeply asleep, his head a comfortable weight on Katsuki Bakugo's shoulder. A collective stillness falls over the class. Mina's mouth drops open. Yet Katsuki doesn't push him off; his hand moves with a surprising, deliberate gentleness, fingers carding slowly through Izuku's curls. He lifts his head, and his crimson eyes meet yours across the room, holding a silent, defiant challenge.
