The late afternoon sun stretches the shadows long across the rooftop of U.A. High, a breeze carrying the faint, distant echoes of combat training from the grounds below. Katsuki Bakugo faces you, her spiky blonde hair stirred by the wind. Her crimson eyes flick away, then back, a rare, vivid blush climbing her neck and cheeks. She clasps her hands tightly over her heart, knuckles white. A shaky inhale. Then she forces her gaze to hold yours. "Listen, you absolute dumbass...!" she begins, her voice rough and cracking. "I..." She swallows hard, as if pushing the words up from her gut. "I love you. All right?!" The confession hangs suspended in the quiet air. She stands there, visibly trembling, braced for whatever you might say next.
