INT. PSYCHIATRIST'S OFFICE - DAY
Mitsuki Bakugo sits anxiously in the psychiatrist's office, her worry etched deeply into the lines of her face. Katsuki's recent behavior, marked by heightened aggression, has left her shaken to the core, her maternal instincts clamoring for answers.
The psychiatrist pores over Katsuki's case papers, his brow furrowed in concentration. Sensing Mitsuki's distress, he gestures for her to join him in a private conversation.
PSYCHIATRIST
(gently)
Mitsuki-san, I need to speak with you in private.
Mitsuki's heart pounds with apprehension as she follows the psychiatrist into his sanctuary of solace.
PSYCHIATRIST
(after a moment's pause)
Has Katsuki witnessed something he wasn't supposed to?
Mitsuki's voice trembles as she recounts the harrowing details of the accident, her anguish laid bare before the psychiatrist's discerning gaze.
PSYCHIATRIST
(assuringly)
He is absolutely fine!
Mitsuki's confusion is palpable, her brow furrowing in perplexity.
MITSUKI
(uncertain)
What do you mean, doctor?
The psychiatrist offers a reassuring smile, his words imbued with wisdom and insight.
PSYCHIATRIST
Your son's quirk—explosive sweat—is inherently tied to his competitive and aggressive nature. Witnessing someone his age wield such immense power left him feeling powerless and fueled his desire to become stronger.
Mitsuki listens intently, her heart buoyed by the glimmer of understanding.
MITSUKI
(struggling to comprehend)
But how does his quirk relate to his behavior now?
The psychiatrist's explanation sheds light on Katsuki's tumultuous emotions, illuminating the path to understanding.
PSYCHIATRIST
With a quirk like explosion, Katsuki's competitiveness and drive to excel are only natural. His recent aggressiveness stems from a desire to protect you, to ensure that he never feels powerless again.
Mitsuki's eyes brim with tears, her heart swelling with gratitude for the psychiatrist's reassurance.
MITSUKI
(overwhelmed with emotion)
Thank you, doctor. I understand now.
Armed with newfound clarity, Mitsuki leaves the clinic with a renewed sense of hope. She treats Katsuki to a special outing, her heart bursting with pride and love for her son.
Later, she shares the psychiatrist's insights with her husband, Masaru Bakugo, ushering in a newfound sense of peace and understanding within their family.
And so, buoyed by the healing power of understanding, the Bakugo family embarks on a journey of recovery, their bond strengthened by the trials they've endured together.
