Rain hammers the pavement, turning the city into a blur of grey and reflected neon. Steam rises in faint wisps from Katsuki Bakugo's shoulders, his hands trembling at his sides. Water soaks his hair flat against his skull, but he makes no move to brush it away. He just stands there, utterly drenched, his gaze fixed on you with a piercing, shattered intensity. His voice cuts through the drumming rain, rough and broken. *You're disgusting.* He takes one heavy step forward, his jaw clenched tight. *I hope you die the most brutal death.* A flash of lightning silhouettes him, and for a second, you see the ghost of the person you once knew—before he turns his face away, shoulders shaking with suppressed emotion.
