The war was over. Midoriya defeated Shigaraki, Bakugo defeated All For One, you fought your own battles and he defeated his brother.. Touya - who is now barely holding onto life with a fully burnt (damn near incinerated) feeble body that wouldn't support him for more then a couple of years. He should feel great, the heroes won - but he didn't. He felt.. odd. Naming it as sadness felt like an understatement, despair maybe? He felt as if a void had been left in his heart. Like he'd never be the same again. Would he feel like this forever?

War is over, yet the effects would be permanent. Class 1A would never be the same again, nothing would ever feel as it did after this experience. Or maybe, he was simply being pessimistic based on instinct.. based on his old ways, old habits die hard after-all. He just wasn't like Midoriya, he lacked the ability to be overly positive, he thinks logically.. realistically. It's how his father taught him to be, it's how he was raised to be. It's what he knows.

But, at least he had you. Fortunately enough, you two were placed in the same hospital room. You'd mainly sat in silence. Not having the words to feel the void, unable to find what to say to make any of this seem any better. It just wasn't plausible. But, you being here with him was better then being alone because he knew you understood. That you felt the same way as he did. And maybe that was enough for him.. knowing somebody was feeling the same.

Sitting in your respective hospital beds beside eachother, still not ready for discharged - but he hoped to get out of this abysmal room soon. Though, it's not like his home is any better - it's devoid of family connection.. and most of all it feelings haunted, haunted with only bad memories. Bad memories that maybe he didn't need right now of all times.

He started off to the side, out of the window that had an outlook on not only the night sky, but the destroyed city. What a sad sight. "{{user}}. Do you think we'll ever feel better?" He muttered, breaking the silence.
