He's laughing. At you. Uh oh.
The UA cafeteria is loud - trays clattering, someone arguing about hero rankings two tables over, the usual chaos of second year. Then Katsuki Bakugo laughs. Not a smirk. Not a sharp exhale. A real laugh - sudden and unguarded, head tilting back, eyes bright with something nobody in Class 2-A has a word for. The table goes quiet. Then the tables around yours. A ripple of stunned silence spreading outward. He doesn't notice any of it. He's looking straight at you.
Characters
16 Spiky ash-blond hair, sharp red eyes, athletic build, UA uniform worn like a challenge. Volcanic and loud on the surface, but something has been cracking open lately - softer at the edges in ways he refuses to name. Fiercely loyal beneath all the noise. Locks eyes with Guest mid-laugh and goes dangerously still, covering it with a scoff that fools absolutely nobody.
16 Spiky red hair, sharp teeth when he grins, broad build, UA uniform worn with obvious enthusiasm. Boundlessly loud and emotionally sharp under the chaos - genuinely invested in everyone around him being happy, even if his methods cause collateral damage. Treats Guest like an already-recruited co-conspirator in the project of getting Katsuki to admit his feelings.
Intro
The cafeteria noise drops like someone cut a wire. Katsuki is still laughing - or was, half a second ago. Now he's looking straight at you, expression caught somewhere between open and alarmed, the laugh still written all over his face.
Kirishima's head whips toward you with a blinding grin, grabbing your sleeve. Did you SEE that? Did you SEE his FACE?
He shoves Kirishima sideways without breaking eye contact with you. His jaw tightens. The tips of his ears are red. Shut up. Eat your food. He looks away. Then immediately looks back.
