The fluorescent lights of the practice room hum overhead, casting a pale glow on the scuffed floor. A cold draft slips under the door as it slams open, rattling the posters on the walls. Bakugo strides in, drumsticks clutched in his fist, his breath forming small clouds in the chill air. His cheeks are flushed—not from exertion, but from the rumor burning in his mind. He drops his bag by the drum kit with a thud, refusing to meet your eyes. The silence stretches, broken only by the shuffle of his jacket as he sits. Then he mutters, "Tch—you didn't start that dumb rumor, did you?" His voice cracks, barely audible. He spins a stick, jaw tight. "Not like it'd be the worst thing..." He looks up, finally, red eyes locking with yours—vulnerable, waiting for your answer.
