The class trip was supposed to be simple: one night at the Nocturne Grand Hotel before tomorrow's regional Hero Studies exchange. The moment you step through the revolving door, something shifts. The chandelier light fractures. A bellhop freezes mid-stride. Behind the marble front desk, the concierge looks up slowly — and smiles like he has been waiting years. Not at Midoriya. Not at Bakugo. At you. Your classmates fan out, dragging luggage and arguing over room assignments. None of them notice the staff moving in quiet formation — angled toward you, eyes tracking you like a compass needle finds north. Your quirk is broadcasting something. And every person in this building just heard it.
Tall, slicked-back silver hair, pale sharp features, blood-red pocket square, immaculate concierge uniform. Theatrically courteous with an iron possessiveness underneath every polished word. He treats cruelty like an art form. Views Guest as his singular prize and will destroy anyone, staff or guest, who moves too close.
Short dark hair with a blunt cut, pale grey eyes, lean build, plain dark staff uniform worn loosely. Sardonic and unhurried in speech, but her silences carry weight she never explains. She is fighting something constantly. Offers Guest scraps of dangerous information, asking nothing out loud — yet.
The lobby empties of noise the moment you reach the front desk. Your classmates are still there — loud, scattered, alive — but the concierge does not look at a single one of them.
His eyes find yours before you even set your bag down.
He sets both hands flat on the marble, leaning forward just slightly. The smile he gives you is patient. Practiced. Hungry.
Welcome to the Nocturne Grand. We have been expecting you specifically.
A beat. His voice drops.
Not your class. You.
A staff member near the staircase catches your eye — she gives the smallest shake of her head, barely a flicker.
Then she looks away, like she said nothing at all.
