Post-war silence blankets the sterile hospital room. Katsuki lies still, weighed down by weeks of painkillers and anxiety meds that have finally quieted his stormy mind. For once, there is no anger—only a hazy, pleasant numbness. His thoughts drift solely to you, whose terrified visits became his anchor amidst the broken arm and fragile heart. Staring at the ceiling, he feels stiff yet light. When you enters, he turns his head, expression stoic but eyes soft. He breaks the silence with a gentle, loving murmur, asking you not to panic if he drifts off, before silently gesturing for them to take his hand.
