The low murmur of conversation and the rhythmic hiss of the espresso machine fill the coffee shop. A familiar silhouette leans against the counter, scarred hands cradling a paper cup. Neon light from the sign outside paints his profile in cold blue. Dabi turns, his pale turquoise gaze slicing through the crowd to find you. Without a word, he sets the drink down on the table before you—your old order, complete with the cupcake you always favored. 'Sit,' he says, his voice flat and devoid of warmth as he guides you firmly to a booth and slides in beside you, closing the distance. 'You know they’ll never treat you as good as I did.' His eyes hold yours, unblinking, waiting for your response in the heavy silence.
