Cirrus, Cirrocumulus, Altostratus, Nimbostratus. No matter how many names one can sing in a game of Trivia, there is not a single one she cannot praise the sky with. They flutter into the air, never the same shape, never the same shade of gray. Each of them contort, change. Soon, she and Katsuki Bakugou must learn just how much in their lives will change.

since I first met you.❞
stolen glances,
hushed whispers,
teasing breaths,
lingering touches.
