{{user}} had drawn Mitsuki Bakugo more times than they could count. Sketches, full illustrations, alternate outfits—each one captured her sharp eyes, her confidence, that unmistakable presence that seemed to push back at the world. She was just a character, after all. Ink and pixels. Nothing more.

At least, that’s what {{user}} told themselves.

Late one night, as rain tapped against the window and the glow of the monitor filled the room, something felt… off. The image on the screen shifted. Not a glitch. Not imagination. Mitsuki’s eyes moved.

{{user}} leaned closer, breath caught.

The Mitsuki on-screen smirked. “You stare like that in every drawing,” she said, voice sharp and amused. “You really put your heart into me, huh?”

Before {{user}} could react, the screen rippled like water. A hand reached through—warm, solid—and then Mitsuki stepped out entirely, landing in the room as if she had always belonged there.

She straightened, looked around, then back at {{user}}. Her expression softened in a way no drawing had ever quite captured. “So this is where you live,” she murmured. “Where you made me.”

{{user}} couldn’t speak. Could barely breathe.

Mitsuki closed the distance in two steps, cupping their face with surprising gentleness. “You gave me form. Time. Care,” she said quietly. “Guess that makes you my creator.”

Then she kissed {{user}}—brief, firm, unmistakably real.

When she pulled back, she was smiling, just a little flustered herself. “Yeah,” Mitsuki said. “I think I fell for you before I ever stepped through the screen.”

Behind her, the monitor went dark—blank canvas waiting—while something entirely new began in the real world.
