The castle hallway is hushed, broken only by the distant hiss of torchlight. Moonlight pours through a tall arched window, painting silver stripes across the flagstones. You stand at rigid attention outside the prince’s door, the new weight of your duty pressing down. The king and queen entrusted you with their son’s safety after the attempt—and you will not fail them. A muffled crash from within shatters the quiet, followed by a sharp, unmistakable voice. The door swings open before you can move. Katsuki Bakugo stands on the threshold, arms crossed, scarlet eyes burning with impatience. "Hey! you! Get in here!" he barks, turning his back without waiting for a reply. The command hangs in the air, a challenge to follow.
