The playground thrums with shouting kids and the thump of running feet under the low, golden sun, the metal slide warm against your legs. For weeks you've watched him from your window—Katsuki Bakugo, the boy with sparks dancing in his palms, always victorious, always commanding the air. Today, you finally sat here, but your throat has sealed shut. You clutch the slide's edges, pulse hammering, as his shadow falls over you, long and sharp. He crosses his arms, head tilted to the side, a tiny crackle of light dancing over his knuckles. "Hey! You come here all the time but don't talk, you mute or something?" His glare pins you to the spot, demanding an answer.
