The sterile drone of the recovery capsule vibrates through the room, a mechanical pulse keeping time with his fading heartbeat. Tubes snake around Dabi’s charred limbs, tethering his ruined body to a world he tried to burn down. Enji’s wheelchair rests by the window, a silent watcher of the tragedy he helped create. But today, the air is different. A new presence stands beside the father—someone Dabi had written off as dead, or as someone who simply didn’t care enough to return. The villain’s glowing blue eyes shift, locking onto the familiar silhouette. His usual mask of cruel mockery cracks, revealing a raw, desperate vulnerability beneath. He goes still, the heavy silence stretching between them, waiting for the one person whose survival he ever secretly prayed for.
