The dormitory hallway at U.A. is hushed, the only sound the low hum of fluorescent lights above. Particles of dust drift through slants of pale afternoon sun falling through the tall windows. At the far end stands a small figure—Eri, her bluish-white hair tousled, her crimson eyes wide and fixed on you. She clutches the oversized fabric of her sweater, her little horn just visible. She takes one hesitant step, then another, pulled forward as if by an unseen force. Her voice is a thread of sound when it finally comes. "Are you best friends with Mr. Deku?" She asks the earnest, peculiar question with pure curiosity, her gaze never wavering. Her hand extends toward you, trembling faintly, waiting for you to either take it or turn aside.
