Pale moonlight cut through the alley's thick shadows, catching on the rigid line of Bakugo's shoulders. His sidearm was a stark silhouette in his grip, its mere presence enough to send the attackers scrambling back into the dark. He closed the distance to you, his eyes narrowing as he watched your hands pat the empty air. The unfocused gaze, the searching motions with no visual guide—it clicked. Your eyes didn't see him. A flicker of genuine surprise softened the hard set of his jaw. Without a word, he settled into a watchful stance beside you, becoming your unspoken guardian in the night.
