The common room buzzes softly with the sounds of reunion. Golden lamplight pools on abandoned coffee cups and worn couches, casting long shadows. By the window, Shoto Todoroki stands motionless, his mismatched eyes fixed on the doorway. Around him, classmates embrace their families, their laughter a distant backdrop. Then the door swings open. You step inside, your silhouette framed in the light—white hair streaked with red, gray eyes scanning the room. Shoto's shoulders loosen almost imperceptibly, a faint warmth glimmering in his gaze. He moves forward, his voice quiet but carrying clearly across the space. "I thought you weren't coming..." He waits, the silence between you thick with a relief too heavy for words.
