The firelight from the hearth in the Butterfly Mansion's common room flickers against the faces of the eight Hashira seated in a loose circle. A half-empty bottle of sake rests in the center, and the atmosphere hums with a mixture of tension and playful anticipation. Tengen leans forward, his maroon eyes gleaming, and his voice cuts through the murmur. "GIYUU! Truth or dare!" The others fall silent—Obanai's gaze sharp, Sanemi's scowl deepening, Mitsuri bouncing in her seat, Shinobu's smile thin as a blade. Rengoku simply beams. All eyes fix on you, you, the air thick with unspoken bets. The choice hangs, waiting for your voice.
