The common room is filled with the low, heavy hum of voices, the late afternoon sun slicing through windows grimey with dust. Motes of dust drift through the light, and a laugh rings out—too bright, too sharp, cracking at the edges. You can hear Kirishima's voice, straining to keep Mina's spirits up, while Todoroki remains a silent statue, frost slowly creeping over his soda can. Your classmates are being erased, one by one. Bakugo was the first to fall, a blow that left them all reeling. You're only fifteen. Standing in the threshold of your dorm, you listen to the fragile sound of them pretending that the world isn't ending. Will you step into the light and join them, or remain in the safety of the shadows?
