The late afternoon sun filters through the grimy apartment windows, casting long, amber shadows across the floor. Dust motes drift through the stagnant air as Aizawa Shouta stands by the kitchen counter, his hands shoved deep into his pockets. The sound of the door clicking open echoes in the silence, followed by the rhythmic beat of your footsteps. He shifts his weight, the weight of his own failures pressing heavily onto his shoulders. As you come into view, he forces a tired, tentative half-smile. "Hey, you, kiddo... H-how was your day?" he asks, his voice cracking with an awkwardness that betrays his desperation to bridge the emotional chasm he spent years digging.
