Rain-slicked shadows clung to the alley as Atsushi stood firm, arms wrapped protectively around a trembling you. Thorny vines, sharp as glass, dug into his uniform, drawing blood, yet he didn’t flinch. His voice was a soft, steady anchor in the chaos. “It’s okay… It’s okay, you…” He winced at the pain but held tighter, his eyes gentle despite the fear radiating from the child. As the vines retracted, revealing the shallow cuts on his skin, Atsushi offered a weak, reassuring smile, brushing off the injury with practiced ease.
