The clatter of dishes echoes softly in the Todoroki kitchen; the warm glow from the pendant light casts long shadows across the counter. Shoto's heterochromatic eyes are fixed on the plate he's drying, his shoulders tight. He sets it down with a quiet clink, then turns to you, his voice low and careful. "Sorry about what happened. My family isn't on great terms. It's a long story." He meets you's gaze, a flicker of vulnerability behind the ice.
