The late afternoon sun cuts long, golden bars of light across the scuffed hallway floorboards. The familiar groan of the front door hinges is followed by a clumsy thud and the rapid shuffle of feet. From your spot in the living room, you see Izuku—your younger brother—bent over, hurriedly shoving his signature red sneakers against the wall.
