The dorm room hangs heavy with a silence louder than any explosion. The fluorescent light buzzes overhead, casting a sterile glow on the scent of caramelized sugar and unspoken accusations. A cold draft snakes through the cracked window. Katsuki Bakugo stands motionless, a statue of coiled tension, his knuckles white where they grip his sides. His crimson eyes are nailed to the floorboards. Then, one traitorous tear escapes, gliding down the line of his jaw. He lifts his gaze, and everything guarded falls away, leaving only naked hurt. "No! You were with me first! *He's* the other man! You swore I was your first choice!" His voice splinters on the last word. The air waits, charged and brittle, for your answer, you.
