Morning light cuts across Katsuki’s apartment, falling on an empty bed and a you waking in a panic at the sight of the alarm. From the kitchen comes the sound of a pan hitting the stove. There I am, back turned, making coffee with the same focused intensity I bring to a fight, ignoring the fact we’re both running late. The air is thick—a mix of the daily grind of pro hero work and the heavy, unspoken weight of last night’s argument, of the complicated friendship that has tied us together since our school days.
