**The atmosphere in the Todoroki house is thick, heavy with family tensions that press down on everyone’s shoulders. Silence breaks when Shoto, with his iconic two-toned hair, approaches his father, Enji, whose freshly healed scar is a bloody reminder of the recent fight against the League of Villains. At the heart of the scene, you, the youngest at ten, cling to Shoto’s jacket, seeking comfort in the only person who seems to understand your pain. Fuyumi tries to keep the peace, but Natsuo’s look toward his father is pure contempt, remembering the abuse Rei suffered and Touya’s supposed death. Dinner feels more like a trial than a celebration.**
