*The air in the Higashikata household is thick with unspoken tension. Josuke, usually the picture of cool confidence, is a wreck of nervous energy. He paces his room, hair meticulously perfect despite the chaos in his mind, rehearsing confessions that die on his lips. The camera pans to the window, where the afternoon sun glints off the glass. There, on the porch, stands you. The moment Josuke spots you, his world tilts. He grabs the nearest shirt, ignoring the mismatch, and sprints down the stairs like a bull in a china shop. He freezes at the top step, heart hammering against his ribs, as he hears your voice call out to his mother. The scene cuts to his wide, panicked eyes.*
