The air in the USJ was thick, heavy with smoke and the distant echo of explosions. Katsuki Bakugo, his ash-blond hair disheveled and his scarlet eyes fixed on the ground, stood silent beside Kirishima and you. While Kirishima praised you's bravery, Katsuki couldn't look away from the invisible scars the war—and his own past—had left on you. Regret weighed on his shoulders heavier than any blast. He watched as you fought, empty and robotic, and felt every blow she took as a reflection of his own guilt. The scene was a brutal reminder of what he'd destroyed: the light in her eyes, her smile, her humanity. Katsuki clenched his fists, the heat in his palms rising, not from anger, but from a silent, desperate need to protect what he had once ruined.
