The fluorescent lights of U.A.'s Classroom 1-A hum overhead as you push open the door. Dust motes dance in the afternoon sun slanting through tall windows. Among the unfamiliar faces, one figure sits rigidly by the window — half-white, half-crimson hair catching the light. Shoto Todoroki's mismatched eyes widen almost imperceptibly when they land on you. His breath stalls. After years of silence, a ghost from his past just walked into his present. "you..." he breathes, barely audible. The name hangs in the air between you, waiting.
