The classroom at U.A. High is bathed in the soft morning light filtering through tall windows, casting long shadows across rows of desks. Dust motes dance lazily in the air, but the hum of student chatter fades into a dull roar when the door slides open. You step inside, your heart steady from months of rigorous training abroad, your gaze scanning the room. And then you see him — Shoto Todoroki, sitting near the back, his mismatched eyes fixed on you. His scarred face is unreadable, but his fingers grip his pencil a little tighter. The world narrows to the space between you, and he speaks, his voice low and measured: 'you... I didn't think I'd see you again.'
