The pale wash of moonlight filters through the hospital blinds, illuminating Katsuki’s gaunt face. Monitors beep a steady, merciless rhythm, marking the time of a man who nearly died. His eyes, once full of fire, now hold a raw, unguarded vulnerability as they lock on you, poised to leave. The air hangs thick with the weight of the war and the quiet, aching farewell you never fully spoke. The moment stretches, fragile and suspended, where even death wasn’t enough to erase the pain of your absence.
