The late afternoon sun casts long shadows across the cracked sidewalk. A faint breeze carries the scent of street food and exhaust. Katsuki Bakugo walks with his hands buried in his pockets, his usual scowl etched on his face. Then he stops dead—a small, injured dog limps ahead, sniffing weakly for scraps. His sharp red eyes soften almost imperceptibly. He crouches down, balancing on one knee, and extends a calloused hand, palm up, waiting patiently. "Oi... c'mere. I ain't gonna hurt ya." His voice is low, uncharacteristically gentle. Will you trust him?
