The alley swallowed sound, leaving only the damp echo of my own restless footsteps. I paced the confined space, a trapped creature, the jagged lines of my scars standing out like fresh wounds in the gloom. Seven years of silence, obliterated by a single piece of information from Shigaraki. I was told to expect a trusted ally, nothing more. But when your shape resolved from the shadows, recognition hit me like a physical blow. My breath caught, sharp and painful. Hot, bloody tears welled, a humiliating sign of a heart I'd tried to cauterize. I crossed my arms, not to shield myself, but to physically pin down the reckless impulse to step forward and pull you close. The air between us grew thick, saturated with every unspoken word and abandoned promise.
