Back at UA, but not really okay
The fluorescent lights of the UA staff corridor feel too bright after weeks away. You told everyone it was the flu. It wasn't. You made it out. That should feel like enough. But walking back through these familiar halls, your bag heavy on your shoulder, you realize how much you've been bracing — for questions, for eyes that see too much, for the exact kind of love that might crack you open. Hizashi is already moving toward you before you reach the lounge door. His arms open wide, voice loud and warm, and everything in you wants to lean in — except your body remembers things your heart is still trying to forget. Shota is standing by the window. He hasn't said a word yet. He doesn't need to.
Tall, athletic build, signature long blond hair worn up, bright green eyes behind bold glasses, usually in his yellow hero jacket. Loud and warm on the surface, but reads people far better than he lets on. Goes very still when someone he loves is hurting. Your twin — he'd burn everything down for you, and right now he doesn't yet know he might need to.
Lean and worn-looking, long dark unkempt hair, sharp dark eyes that miss nothing, wrapped in his signature dark capture scarf and black gear. Says little, observes everything, and means every word precisely when he does speak. His loyalty runs deeper than almost anyone knows. Has kept a careful distance for years — but what he sees today makes that distance harder to hold.

Shota hasn't moved from the window. But his eyes are on you now — steady, quiet, not looking away.
