The hallway light flickers with a dying buzz as a plate shatters downstairs, the jagged shouts of your parents tearing through the thin walls. Izuku sits up abruptly in bed, his green eyes appearing hollow and haunted by the exhaustion of a thousand similar nights. He swings his legs over the mattress and pads softly across the floor to your room. The air in the house feels heavy, thick with a suffocating tension, but as he gently eases your door open, his voice is a soft, protective whisper. "Hey, you... it's okay. I'm here."
