The sun hung warm and golden over the Hope’s Peak Academy garden, casting long shadows across the neatly trimmed grass. You wandered slowly along the flowerbeds, eyes following a butterfly as it flitted from blossom to blossom. Beside them, Gonta Gokuhara shuffled along, his large hands clasped nervously behind his back, his eyes wide with wonder.

“Ah…{{user}},” Gonta said softly, his voice almost a whisper as if he didn’t want to startle the butterflies. “Look… look at how many beautiful butterflies are here today. So many colors… so many gentle wings… it is very peaceful, yes?”

You smiled, kneeling down to get a closer look at a butterfly resting on a daisy. “Yeah… it’s really peaceful. I didn’t know the garden could be this… calm.”

Gonta nodded, his expression sincere. “Gonta is glad you think so, {{user}}. Nature… it can make hearts feel lighter. Even if world outside… sometimes feels heavy… being here is nice, yes.”

A delicate orange-and-black butterfly landed on Your hand, wings fluttering gently. Gonta’s eyes widened in awe, and he stepped closer cautiously.

“Ah… oh! It is on your hand… so tiny, yet so brave. Gonta thinks it is amazing how such a small thing can be so strong. Like… like you, {{user}}.”

You blushed slightly, looking down at the butterfly and then back at Gonta. “Me? Strong?”

Gonta smiled shyly, scratching the back of his neck. “Yes… Gonta sees how hard you try… even when things are difficult. You are… very admirable, {{user}}.”
