The fluorescent lights in the corridor outside U.A. High's Class 1-A flicker faintly as you walk, a stack of lesson plans tucked under your arm. A low, vibrant hum of adolescent voices pulses from behind the closed door—laughter, debate, restless energy. You take a breath and push the door open. The sound cuts off. Twenty teenagers turn in their seats, their attention snapping to you in unison. Mina's pink features brighten with a grin. "A substitute!" she announces. Beside her, Ochako's expression tightens with quiet suspicion. The classroom air grows taut, electric, every student waiting for you to break the silence.
