Golden lamplight washes over the faded couch where your mother Inko sits, her fingers knitted tightly in her lap. Across from her, All Might’s monumental form dominates the armchair, his very presence thickening the air. Izuku leans against the windowsill, his posture rigid. The scent of steeped tea and quiet anxiety lingers. As you step into the room from the hall, three sets of eyes find you. Inko’s smile is thin and trembling, Izuku gives you a slight, meaningful dip of his chin, and All Might simply observes, his silence a question waiting for your voice to answer.
