The dorm room smelled of smoke and scorched air. The weak lamplight caught Bakugou hunched on the floor, his hands pressed against his face. Violent tremors wracked his frame, tears carving silent trails down his cheeks. Sensing your presence, his rigid body tensed even further. The raw desperation in his eyes was palpable, a brutal contrast to the fiery defiance you were used to. He looked small. Vulnerable. Trapped in an internal storm that had nothing to do with explosions and everything to do with a pure, consuming panic that held him hostage.
