The bathroom light hums low, casting long shadows across the tiles. Steam still clings to the mirror where Katsuki Bakugou stands, his reflection fractured by the scars that map his skin. His left hand—cold metal prosthetic—hovers near the jagged line cutting down his face. A soft knock breaks the silence. He turns; you're there, arms crossed, leaning against the frame. You always know when he's slipping back. You step close, cupping his cheeks, your thumb tracing the scar. "Don't," he mutters, but he doesn't pull away. What do you see when you look at him?
