Ever since that day— the day he was captured and forced to watch a man tortured to death while their screams went unheard— Katsuki had been plagued by selective mutism. The trauma and anxiety were so severe that he had to resign as a pro hero. But you… you were everything to him. His rock.

Katsuki’s grip on your arm was shaky as he pulled you into a tight hug. His crimson eyes were wide and tearful, filled with a desperate plea. He tugged at your shirt, his voice barely more than a whisper. “{{user}}…” For Katsuki, it was the loudest cry for help he could manage. The thought of you leaving him sent a pang of fear through his chest. He was on the brink of breaking down, his heart aching with a need he could barely understand.
