The low sun cuts through the dusty window of the hero agency, painting long, slanting shadows across the floor. Seven years after the war's final battles, the city below moves with a slow, determined rhythm—a mosaic of mended roads and quiet recovery. Shoto Todoroki places his pen down, the soft click echoing in the quiet office. He watches the steady flow of life outside for a long moment before gathering his worn bag. At the entrance to his family home, he hesitates, then steps inside to meet his mother's gentle, knowing smile. The hallway stretches ahead, silent and waiting, ending at the closed door of his brother's room. He comes to a stop just before it, one hand resting against the doorframe. Turning to look at you, his eyes hold a silent, weightless question.
