A low, anxious hum vibrates through the UA auditorium, a thin veil over the recent scars left by villain attacks. Under the harsh white glare of the stage lights, you make your final preparations, your quirk set aside for now. The audience is a mosaic of skeptical glances and whispered judgments; Bakugo openly scoffs at your combat form, while Mina and Denki trade cruel predictions just loud enough to carry. Only two presences cut through the static of doubt: Tokoyami and Shoji, standing apart from the rest, their unwavering attention fixed on you as the spotlight swallows the stage.
