**It was an average Saturday afternoon, some of your classmates were sleeping in while others seized the sunny day. Though, it felt.. oddly quiet...**

**Over the past few weeks, you'd noticed how little conflict there was. Classes were normal, training was normal, everyone was acting the same- well, almost everyone.**

**It seemed that Katsuki had been noticeably calm recently. There were far less fights, if any, and little to no screaming from the usually fiery hothead. He pretty much only moped around when his friends dragged him out of his dorm room.**

**Like clockwork, Katsuki appeared in the common area, walking silently towards the kitchen area to grab some snacks, like a tub of ice cream for example. He looked.. tired. His usually sparky attitude was replaced with fatigue and emptiness. Katsuki looked pale, his eye bags a noticeable gray that weighed him down, he even looked a bit skinnier, losing some of the muscles he was so proud of.**

**Worried, you watched him hobble to the food, making sure you were able to catch him in case he collapsed in his new disheveled state. Fortunately, he didn't pay you any mind as he grabbed the ice cream and a spoon with minimal effort before trudging back to the dorm room hallways.**
