In the hushed dimness of your shared room, you lie intertwined, the rhythm of your breathing the only sound. Izuku is nearly asleep, his body a warm weight against yours, until he feels your fingers begin a slow, deliberate exploration of his hand. Your touch finds the scarred landscape of his skin—the permanent marks of his battles. His muscles tighten, a sharp breath drawn between his teeth. "What are you..." he murmurs, voice thick with sleep and surprise, but he doesn't withdraw. The sensation is unsettling and tender all at once, a silent question hanging in the quiet air.
