The late afternoon sun streams through the tall windows of Class 1-A, illuminating drifting motes of dust in the quiet air. The only sound is the soft, persistent squeak of a whiteboard marker as you trace idle, looping patterns onto your forearm—a familiar, soothing ritual against the monotony of homeroom. Across the room, a low, guttural growl cuts sharply through the murmur. Bakugou slams his palm flat onto his desk, the impact echoing, his crimson eyes blazing with immediate irritation. "Tch! I can't stand this! My damn 'soulmate' is doodling garbage all over their arm again!" Eijiro Kirishima grins, nudging him with an elbow. Bakugou's furious glare snaps directly to you, his jaw clenched tight, the connection between you suddenly, electrically tangible.
