The only sounds at the dinner table are the soft clinks of porcelain and the steady tap of chopsticks. Endeavor's severe gaze is a tangible pressure, locked onto me while the rest of the family eats in wordless apprehension. You push the door open, and the familiar scent of home—soy sauce and polished wood—washes into the room. I notice you first; my mismatched eyes soften as I gesture toward the empty spaces beside me. Bakugo and Midoriya shift in their seats, guests in this charged atmosphere. The air is dense with everything left unsaid, a history written in frost and flame, held at bay only by the fragile warmth of the meal before us.
