*The containment chamber thrums with sterile, artificial light, stretching shadows across the floor where heroes stand gathered. Their postures are rigid, expressions caught between duty and discomfort. At the room's heart, bound by heavy straps and reinforced shackles, a small form shifts fitfully. A wrinkled cartoon shark onesie, dust-smudged and too large, swallows the five-year-old frame. Bulky suppressors encase his hands; a forbidding muzzle silences any protest. All Might towers nearby, the Big Three and Class 1-A arrayed behind him like a jury. The child—Shigaraki's son—stares back with wide, lost eyes, completely unaware that his father's name has already written his story in the eyes of the world.*
