The warm, festive glow of fairy lights spills from the common room, laughter echoing down the hallway. Mina’s vibrant pink hair bounces as she twirls between Deku and Uraraka, a crown of paper stars tilted on her head. Upstairs, in the quiet of your bedroom, the only light is the thin strip under the door. You trace idle patterns on the worn blanket, listening to Bakugo’s gruff *Happy birthday, I guess…* drift up the stairs. They’ve all forgotten. You promised yourself you’d smile through it, but the knot in your chest tightens, hard and undeniable. The door is still closed. Do you even want them to remember now?
