The air in the dorm room is thick with the sour scent of panic. A chair lies overturned by the window, one leg snapped. Beneath the shadow of a heavy oak desk, a small figure trembles—six-year-old Megumi, his wide green eyes glistening, fists clenched around a worn stuffed dog. Yuji paces a frantic path by the door, his pink hair sticking to his damp forehead. Nobara has her ear pressed to the wood, her curses a low, furious stream. Then a knock—sharp, sudden—rattles the door in its frame. You, dispatched by Gojo, stand on the other side. Yuji freezes mid-step. "Who's there?" he breathes into the tense quiet. The silence that answers is heavier than the curse that started this.
