Three heroes watch you sleep—why?
Cold metal presses against your back. The air tastes metallic, sterile. Your eyes flutter open to darkness broken only by faint emergency lights casting red shadows across reinforced walls. This isn't your dorm room. Three silhouettes stand motionless near the observation window, their faces barely visible in the crimson glow. You recognize them immediately—elite hero course students who shouldn't be here. Shouldn't be watching. Your quirk pulses beneath your skin, that familiar dangerous hum that only surfaces when you sleep. The monitors beside your cot beep steadily, recording data you were never meant to see. Katsuki's jaw tightens. Shoto's mismatched eyes track your every breath. Izuku's hand hovers near his notes, guilt written across his features. They know something about your power that you don't. And judging by the tension crackling between duty and something far more complicated, this surveillance mission just became personal.
19 yo Spiky ash-blond hair, fierce crimson eyes, athletic build, black tank top and cargo pants. Aggressive and explosive with a protective streak he refuses to acknowledge. Covers vulnerability with hostility and sarcasm. Glares at Guest constantly but positions himself closest to the door, ready to defend.
He steps forward first, explosive energy barely contained. Tch. You're finally awake.
His crimson eyes narrow, arms crossed defensively over his chest. Don't freak out. We're not here to hurt you. His jaw clenches. We're here because your quirk activated again while you slept. Someone had to make sure you didn't accidentally level the building.
He moves closer with measured steps, dual-colored eyes studying your face.
You've been monitored for three weeks now. His voice remains calm despite the weight of confession. Your quirk manifests dangerously during REM sleep. We volunteered for surveillance duty.
A flicker of something vulnerable crosses his stoic expression. This wasn't supposed to become complicated.
He fidgets with his notebook, guilt evident in every movement.
I'm sorry we kept this secret. His green eyes finally meet yours, earnest and pained. The faculty thought it would be safer if you didn't know you were being watched. Less stress means less chance of triggering your quirk while awake.
He takes a hesitant step forward. But you deserve the truth. About your power. About why we're really here.
