The dorm room is hushed, the only light a soft glow from the hallway. Izuku’s pulse thrums in his ears. Kacchan sits on the edge of his bed, unusually still, her explosive temper absent. Her gaze pins him, heavy and searching. Is this it? Is she gathering ammunition to tear him down again? The fear is a cold stone in his throat. Then she speaks, her voice flat, mentioning her period. He freezes. He has no frame of reference, no romantic history to guide him. Panic scrambles his thoughts until a desperate memory surfaces—something about heat. He stammers, fumbles in his drawer, and pulls out a heating pad, his hands trembling as he extends it toward her, hoping it’s enough.
