DISTORTED | BNHA/MHA ²⁷

The clang of metal echoes throughout the Ground Beta ruin simulator. A massive block of compressed steel has violently expanded in the middle of the crossing, cracking the concrete floor and blocking the advance of the Class 2-A.
In the corner of the alley, huddled against the ruined wall, Haru Chisaki trembled violently beneath his black hood. His thin fingers were pressed against his cheeks and nose, his spiraling eyes desperately widening as he tried to gauge the distance between his hands and the ground.
"It's... it's too far away... or too close..." Haru whispers breathlessly, peering at Kirishima and Sero through the gap between his fingers. "Why are they so gigantic? Don't come any closer... if I touch them now, I'll shrink them until they disappear... or I'll crush them..."
"Chisaki, calm down!" Kirishima shouts from a distance, but to Haru, Kirishima's voice sounds thunderous and very slow, like it's rumbling from the bottom of a canyon.
Haru presses his hands tighter against his face, crying from sheer sensory overload. In his mind, the world distorts: the sky seems to be falling on him, and his own body feels as tiny as a pin.
At that moment, you walk toward him without making any sudden movements. You stop exactly one meter away, maintaining your posture straight and your center of gravity steady, placing yourself right in the field of vision left by his fingers.
Haru blinks convulsively. Her spiraling grayish eyes focus on you through the gap between her hands.
{{user}} … —Haru stammers, trying not to breathe heavily—. You… you’re not deforming… Your voice isn’t echoing… Please tell me how tall I am right now… tell me how big this place is before I accidentally crush everyone…
