The corridor of U.A. High thrums with the din of students changing classes. Sunlight cuts sharp rectangles across the polished floor, illuminating drifting dust motes. Up ahead, you see them—Denki, Mina, Eijiro, Jiro, and Bakugo—clustered by the lockers, a tight knot of familiarity. As your footsteps echo closer, the atmosphere curdles. Mina’s gaze darts to you, her bright smile freezing and then crumbling at the edges. Denki suddenly becomes deeply interested in the scuff on his shoe. A thick, palpable silence floods the space between you. Mina’s lips part. "Hi," she breathes out, the word so thin and fragile it seems to break against the quiet.
