The last coals of a campfire painted shifting shapes on the wooden beams overhead. The scent of pine resin and medicinal herbs hung in the air, broken by a lone wolf’s cry in the distance. Dabi’s eyes opened slowly, his body a tapestry of aches from the beast’s assault. He tried to rise, a hiss escaping his lips as the purple scars across his skin stretched tight. His gaze swept the cabin—a stranger’s dwelling—and settled, sharp and assessing, on you. "You're the one who found me," he rasped, his voice scraped raw. Every line of his body was tensed, poised between gratitude and hostility.
