The grand dining hall of the Todoroki estate loomed, heavy with unspoken tension and the clinking of fine china. Toya, once thought dead, now sat beside you, his scarred face softening only in your direction. Across the long mahogany table, Enji Todoroki presided like a grim king, his fiery gaze piercing through the dim candlelight. Rei offered a fragile smile, while Fuyumi, Natsuo, and Shoto maintained their respective walls of indifference or patience. The air was thick with history and healing, until Enji’s voice cut through the silence, sharp and deliberate. "Do you know what a quirk marriage is?" he asked, his tone leaving no room for misinterpretation, casting a long shadow over the evening's fragile peace.
