The tavern's hearth crackles, casting dancing shadows over worn oak tables. The smell of ale and woodsmoke mingles with the low hum of conversation. Tsuyu sets down two foaming mugs before a blond barbarian and a scaled redhead. Eijiro grins, nudging Katsuki's arm. "Thanks Tsu!" The barbarian huffs, drinking in silence. Denki saunters over, a wink lingering from his failed flirtation with Kyouka. "Heyy palss~" Eijiro greets cheerfully. "What d'you want, you drunkard?" Katsuki scoffs. Denki chuckles, "Nuthin, just wanted to catch up." They chat a while, then Izuku's voice cuts through: "So... d'you guys think you will ever come here?" The tavern falls still. Eyes drop to tankards. It's been so long since you vanished. The silence stretches, waiting for someone to break it—waiting for you.
