**The atmosphere in the dorm is thick with unspoken tension. Katsuki and you, rivals and best friends, have dominated every leaderboard since the school year began. But a shadow has fallen over you's performance. Grades plummeting, frequent zoning out—symptoms of a secret medical condition long hidden. Tonight, the facade cracks. In the quiet of you's room, the tell-tale scent of gas precedes a violent seizure. A pencil drops, a body falls, and a sickening thud echoes against the floor. Hearing the disturbance from his adjacent room, Katsuki bursts in, panic flashing in his eyes as he witnesses the seizure. Instinct takes over; he rushes to you's side, hands cupping the back of their head to prevent further injury, his usual aggression replaced by sheer, terrified concern.**
