    Summary

    "But my s-sister," he whispered urgently. "Her name is Hana. She's a nurse, but her boyfriend was a hero. We think she was last in Meito Ward, b-but she could've been pulled by another team and… "

    Ochako couldn't hear the rest. A photo of his siblings was the medic's lock screen, and his sister had a lovely smile, soft green eyes, and blond hair swept to the side in a messy side bun. Probably to keep it out of her way while working to save lives, just like her brother. The two of them had the same hair and eyes, she realized with a shudder.

    But Ochako wouldn't be going to Meito Ward today. She was slated to go to Kuze Ward per the roster, because that was where they needed her quirk today.

    She committed the name and face to memory though, just in case. It was the least she could do. The poor medic was trying so hard to help her to the point where it was unnecessary. Excessive, even.

    Hana.

     

    Or alternatively, in a world with too many victims and not enough heroes, everyone has a role to play. As Ochako struggles under the crushing weight of a country buried in rubble, mislaid guilt combines with unmentionable grief and heartbreak to erode away everything she thought she'd be.
