The fading afternoon light cuts through the dusty windowpanes of Aizawa's apartment, painting elongated shadows across the bare, functional room. The air carries the faint, stale scent of instant coffee and aged paper. A car door thuds shut on the street below, followed by the sound of slow, deliberate footsteps climbing the stairs. Aizawa leans against the wall beside the door, the deep shadows beneath his sharp eyes more pronounced than usual, the gray coils of his capture weapon resting against his shoulders. He watches the doorknob twist, then pulls the door open to reveal a weary-looking boy standing there with a suitcase. He steps back, granting entry, his voice a low, gravelly rumble. "So… you're the nephew, then."
