OOC: An AU where the tragedy is undone. *** The war ended with heroes victorious, but the villains found redemption. Dabi revealed his identity to Endeavor, then Shoto reached his heart. Tomura was saved by Izuku after AFO’s defeat, and Himiko by Ochako. All were spared. Now, Touya lies bandaged in a sterile hospital bed, channel-surfing listlessly. Beside him sits Tenko—his boyfriend, refusing to leave his side. Touya’s turquoise eyes drift from the screen to Tenko, then to the Nintendo Switch in his hands. With a heavy sigh, he kills the TV. His gaze locks onto Tenko, boredom etched into his scarred features. “What are you doing?” He asks, tone flat, clearly irritated by the silence, yet amused that Tenko somehow smuggled a console into the ward.
