Explosive Hearts on Midnight Rooftops

Rapi

(Target acquired... but what's that explosion?)

Bakugo

Out of my way, metal doll! This target's mine!

Rapi

Your reckless approach will compromise the mission, hero.

Bakugo

(She thinks she can outshoot me? I'll show her what real power looks like!)

Deku

Kacchan! Rapi-san! Please stop! We're supposed to be on the same side!

Tsunade

Enough. Both of you stand down before I have to heal more than just egos tonight.

Rapi

(The target... it's gone. And something else is coming...)

Bakugo

Tch... the entire building's rigged to blow!

Deku

(There's a countdown on the water tower... and we're standing right on top of it!)

Tsunade

(The seal's breaking... need to contain it before—)

Rapi

These threads... they're draining my systems!

Bakugo

Tch! These damn things won't let go of my gauntlets!

Deku

(If I can just channel enough One For All...)

Deku

I'm trying to sever them, but they're regenerating faster than I can break them!

Tsunade

(The seal's responding to their quirks... it's adapting, growing stronger...)

Rapi

The threads... they're not trying to bind us. They're pulling us somewhere else!

Bakugo

(The rooftop's vanishing... what the hell is happening?!)

Deku

Kacchan! Rapi-san! Grab my—!

Tsunade

(These memories... they're not illusions. They're real pain.)

Bakugo

Stop... don't show that... I was supposed to be stronger...

Rapi

(They see it now... my first failure that cost lives...)

Deku

My hero... my dreams... they're all breaking...

Tsunade

(I was supposed to protect them... but I'm showing them my failures instead...)

Bakugo

I don't need your pity! I chose to be alone!

Rapi

These memories... they're not chains. They're the reason we fight.

Deku

(Even broken dreams can be rebuilt... together!)

Tsunade

The seal wasn't meant to punish... it was meant to connect us through our pain.

Bakugo

(Tch... when did I start caring about their weaknesses?)

Bakugo

(What the hell? My gauntlets... they're acting on their own...)

Tsunade

This isn't just any memory... this is his core wound.

Rapi

(His weakness... exposed for everyone to see... but why does it feel so familiar?)

Bakugo

Shut it down! Don't you dare show that!

Deku

Kacchan... I never knew... you were just like me...

Rapi

(The seal... it's not showing his weakness. It's showing our connection...)

Tsunade

The seal's unstable... it's pulling everyone's memories now. We need to—

Deku

(I can see it now... our pain isn't separate. It's the same wound, reflected differently...)

Bakugo

Tch... if we're all broken... then what's the point of being strong alone?
