    Summary

    To the students of U.A. High, they are an inexplicable pairing: the popular, beaming optimist and the abrasive, antisocial loner. They see a performance of high energy and a shield of scowls.

    ​They don't see the truth. They don't see the quiet alcove where the masks fall away, or the bedroom where the noise of the world is finally locked out. For Kirishima, Bakugo is the only place he doesn't have to be "on." For Bakugo, Kirishima is the only person who makes the static in his brain go quiet. It is a private language of devotion, a safe harbor built from shared silence, tender touch, and the profound relief of being completely known.
