City light glints off the scars marking Katsuki Bakugou’s hands as he braces against a lamppost, older now and shaped by a hero’s brutal life. You’re beside him—his partner, the other half of the most formidable duo in the business. The air between you hums, thick not with danger but with everything left unsaid for years. He glares ahead, wrapping his fierce devotion in a familiar, grumpy shell, scared that one wrong move could break the partnership built since their school days.
