Cracked Knuckles and Cotton Hearts

Shigaraki Tomura was supposed to be a ghost-gone, forgotten, or at the very least, far from the world of Pro Heroes and coffee shops. But when Mirko spots him lurking in the quieter parts of the city, still scarred, still twitchy, and inexplicably wearing a limited-edition bunny pin with her face on it, curiosity wins out over instinct.

What begins as a tense, silent coffee shared across a cracked table slowly unravels into something neither of them expected. He's trying to stay invisible. She refuses to look away. Beneath the scars and sharp edges, there's something wounded in him-and something surprisingly patient in her.

As days turn into routine and silence turns into conversation, the lines between enemy, stranger, and something more begin to blur. She punches first and talks later. He hides behind sarcasm and hoodie strings. But together? They might just find something soft between the cracks.

A slow-burn, redemption-tinged love story about healing, muffins, and the most unexpected kind of warmth.
