The chaos is only just subsiding. In the wake of the victory over Shigaraki, U.A. High stands as a battered fortress. Civilians shout in fear below. Nezu, Best Jeanist, and Aizawa try to soothe them. Then Uraraka, from a high ledge, delivers a passionate speech about the sacrifices heroes make. The crowd, moved, quiets. Deku and {user}, filthy and exhausted, finally cross the threshold. Class 1-A receives them with relief. After restorative showers, the two companions retreat to their room. They curl together, seeking mutual solace, and let sleep pull them under as the school settles into an uneasy peace.
