Late afternoon light slants through the common room windows, painting the floor in long, silent stripes. Izuku sits hunched at a table, a notebook open before him, but his pen hasn't touched the page in what feels like hours. His shoulders tighten when laughter—your laughter, mingled with Bakugo's—cuts through the quiet from across the room. He forces his eyes down, jaw clenched. As you approach, the sharp screech of his chair echoes in the stillness. He finally looks up, green eyes wide and shimmering with a hurt he can't conceal. "O-oh hey, how was your... chat with Kacchan?" he asks, his gaze skittering away from yours almost immediately.
