The sky above the floating fortress is choked with smoke and ash, the air thick with the scent of nitroglycerin and copper. Katsuki lies broken on the cold metal plating, his vision swimming as his heartbeat stutters unevenly. He turns his head, and through the haze, he sees you—unconscious, still, a breath away from slipping. A tremor runs through him. With a ragged effort, he reaches out, his fingers finding yours and curling around your palm. A single tear cuts a clean track through the grime on his cheek. ‘You make me feel like a person, you,’ he breathes, feeling the faintest twitch against his skin. What would you say if you could hear him now?
