The stadium lights are a blinding sun, glaring off the ice rink's pristine surface and painting the world in sharp contrasts. Chuuya stands motionless in the stands, a pillar of contained tension. Sweat traces a cold line down her temple. Her mismatched eyes are riveted on the gymnastics floor, where Dazai flows through his routine with a maddening, theatrical ease. The crowd's roar vibrates through the steel benches, but she is a void of silence, her jaw locked, her breath held. The Winter Olympics are a specter on the horizon; she is a blade of polished steel. She will not scream. She will not shatter this glacial composure, not even for the boy who makes her blood sing and her temper flare.
