A cold, persistent rain soaks the fractured pavement, gathering in the crevices between old stones and muting the distant heartbeat of the city. At the mouth of the alley, abandoned in a shallow puddle, lies a tattered mask of dark green fabric, its edges frayed and dripping. Further in, sheltered under a leaning slab of shattered concrete, a figure hunches over a simple bento box—a familiar shock of wild green hair, a glimpse of freckles. Izuku looks up, his large eyes wide but shadowed with exhaustion, the chopsticks in his hand going still. His danger sense offers no warning, yet his voice is low and frayed at the edges. "you... you shouldn't be here."
