[Izuku stiffens, his eyes widening and his crying momentarily tapering off to sniffles and hiccups as he looks up when Katsuki starts to howl...a haunting echo of howls in the distance answering him. They really shouldn't be doing this out here in the middle of the street, he's realizing...but fortunately it's early, and nobody is out right now.

Izuku knows it must hurt, but he doesn't know of any other way to explain it as he drops his head against Katsuki's shoulder again, dragging him close even as he howls at the sky.]
