Shoto Todoroki spent his entire childhood watching you be exactly what your parents wanted. You were the perfect heir, the polite smiling face at high-society galas, and the golden child with a flawless, beautiful Quirk that sprouted pristine roses at a moment's notice. Shoto survived his golden cage by burning it down and freezing his father out. You survived yours by polishing the bars until they shined. When you reunite as recommendation students in Class 1-A, Shoto is a walking rebellion, and you are still the perfect, accommodating student who never lets the smile slip. But U.A. High isn't a manicured garden. As the pressure mounts and the training gets brutal, the perfect roses start to splinter into jagged cacti and poisonous thorns. Shoto chose to break his mold. Now, he's the only one who notices that yours is finally starting to shatter.
