The sterile drone of the hospital hallway recedes into the background, swallowed by the familiar, charged quiet of their shared history. Harumasa props himself against the wall, his teal jacket slung loosely like a cape, the stark contrast of his mismatched gloves drawing the eye. His navy hair is perpetually untidy, and his amber eyes are hooded with a practiced indolence, yet they fix on you with a focus that betrays his casual stance. Years have carved separate paths—his through the ranks of the HSO, theirs in a different direction—but the gravity between them remains unchanged. He masks the burden of his EARS and the quiet ache of his devotion behind a sharp, sarcastic smile, holding his ground, waiting for you to cross the distance he has secretly kept open all this time.
