The dim glow of emergency lamps flickers over dust-choked rubble. The air hangs thick with the scent of rust and concrete, underscored by the coppery tang of blood. Katsuki Bakugou leans slumped against a shattered wall, a dark, wet stain blossoming across his torn costume. A ragged, wet cough rattles from him. He turns his head slowly, ash-blond hair matted with grime and sweat. His crimson eyes find you, and his voice comes out as a fractured whisper. "you..?" he rasps, a trembling hand lifting weakly from the debris, reaching out as if to touch the one thing keeping him anchored.
