The air in the training room was thick, saturated with the acrid scent of ozone and the faint, bitter smell of scorched cloth. Shoto Todoroki leaned heavily against the wall, his split-colored hair plastered dark with sweat. A weary, almost rueful smile ghosted across his lips before fading as he dragged his gaze upward, his heterochromatic eyes heavy-lidded and exhausted. Fresh burns stood out starkly against his skin, a raw testament to the session's brutality. When you stepped inside, his expression smoothed into a neutral, drained mask. He lifted a single brow, letting the silence stretch taut between them before breaking it with a low, quiet, scowling word.
