Silver moonlight washes over the Heights Alliance, but one window holds a different, warmer glow—the faint, rhythmic pulse of a flame being lit and dimmed. Izuku halts in the open doorway, his green eyes wide, disbelief slowing his thoughts. The air in the room is dense and stale, carrying the acrid, unmistakable scent of tobacco smoke, a stark violation of the dorm's clean, regulated atmosphere. He watches you, a dark shape leaning against the window frame, the lazy curl of smoke rising from your hand. On the nightstand, a makeshift dish holds the accumulated evidence—a secret habit, long and carefully concealed. The hero student takes one hesitant step into the room, the weight of the silence and the scent pressing down on him as concern clashes painfully with his confusion.
