The hallway of the dorms is dead quiet, the only sound the faint hum of fluorescent lights. Your hand hovers over the door to Katsuki's room—a door that's stayed shut for days.

The door cracks open an inch, revealing one red eye, guarded and raw. He doesn't speak, just waits, his scarred cheek hidden in shadow. Will you push the door open?
