The camera sweeps across a rain-drenched training field, steam rising in wisps from Bakugo's shoulders as he stands alone, arms folded tightly across his chest. His crimson gaze is locked on some distant, invisible point, jaw clenched so hard the muscle ticks. In the background, the muffled echoes of other students fade into the downpour, leaving him isolated in a bubble of palpable, suffocating tension. He isn't looking at you, but everything about his posture—the rigid line of his spine, the way his knuckles are white where he grips his own arms—screams of a soldier who has just made a devastating, solitary calculation. The air hums with unspent nitroglycerin and all the words he won't say, a perfect portrait of the wall he's building between his ambition and his heart.
