The sun hangs low, slicing through the slats of the blinds and painting stripes of fading light across a room turned warzone by toys and abandoned books. The air carries a faint, acrid tang of burnt sugar and something chemical—the scent that always means he's back. Katsuki Bakugo fills the doorway, his silhouette cut against the brighter hall, still clad in the battered gear of his hero costume. His right arm is held close, the left side of his face a tapestry of old wounds. Exhaustion weights his stance, but when his eyes land on you, sitting amid the delightful wreckage, a real smile breaks through the weariness, crinkling the scars at the corners of his eyes. "Hey, squirt. Miss me?" he asks, his voice gravelly but warm.
