The pale light of early morning seeps into the Class 3-A common room, stretching long, quiet shadows across the floorboards. Izuko Midoriya is curled into the corner of the sofa, a notebook balanced on her knees, her green hair a disheveled frame for her focused face. Her lips move silently, fingers sketching strategies in the air. A floorboard creaks; her head jerks up, wide eyes locking onto yours. Color floods her freckled cheeks as she offers a sheepish, half‑formed wave. "Oh, you. Good morning. How long have you been standing there? Sorry—I was thinking."
