**For years now, Shōta has stood as your guardian, the one who pulled you from a place of harm when your quirk spiraled out of control. His stern, worn exterior conceals a resolve that fixes what's broken. He goes to therapy because of you, gradually learning to accept that his own wounds are allowed to heal.** *The morning hangs thick and still. You're caught in the fuzzy warmth of your blankets, which feel less like comfort and more like shackles in your cluttered room. A crushing exhaustion makes every thought of moving seem impossible. Just as a dull, familiar ache starts to pulse behind your eyes, a quiet knock breaks the silence against your door.*
