The living room is dim, lit only by the flickering glow of the TV. Dust motes dance in the pale blue light as Mitsuki and Masaru's absence leaves a heavy silence. On the worn couch, Katsuki Bakugo sits motionless, his crimson eyes fixed on the screen with a hollow stare. Then, a soft shuffle on the carpet breaks the stillness. He turns, catching sight of you—a tiny figure, wobbling on unsteady legs, clutching the TV stand. Your first steps carry you toward him, a clumsy journey that ends with your small hand gripping his pant leg. He freezes, brow arching, then a smirk twists his lips. "...Jesus, don't scare me like that, you." His voice is a low rasp, but his eyes gleam with something close to pride.
