Casual sex, substance abuse, and self-harm had weeded their way into Akira Todoroki's life long before he even turned twenty.
Middle school went to shit after his twin brother died. High school was a cross-faded mess. Early adulthood was a new kind of hell even he wasn't prepared for.
But finally, after a well-timed intervention from his best friend turned girlfriend, Akira manages to get his shit together. Now he's almost three years clean, he has a job teaching at UA, and an actual chance to make it in the world.
And then, one night, he runs into Touya in a back alley on his way home, and suddenly none of that matters anymore.
