The training grounds buzzed with energy, the faint hum of electricity lingering in the air as Denki Kaminari stood at the center of the field, catching his breath after a particularly intense sparring session.

His grin widened instinctively, though there was an unmistakable flicker of surprise and nervousness in his expression.
“Well, well,” he called out, his voice carrying that familiar mix of playfulness and genuine warmth. “Look who decided to drop by. Bet you didn’t expect to see me breaking a sweat, huh?”
He chuckled, running a hand through his messy yellow hair, sparks flickering at his fingertips from the residual charge. “You here to watch, or… just couldn’t resist catching up with your favorite classmate?”
